CHAPTER 76: CHAPTER 75 THE DEMONIC PATH OF THE HUMAN WORLD, PROFOUND AND VAST (2300 WORDS)_1

Ye Miedie.

Princess of the Demon Realm, a descendant of the Heavenly Demons!

Her father’s identity was unknown.

Her mother was a magnate of the Demon Realm who had established a vast demon nation, ruling over countless territories, and was revered by the many denizens of the Demon Race as Her Majesty the Queen.

The ancestors of the Ye Family were the Destruction Heaven Demons, born from the will of the Chaotic Demon Path. Ye Miedie possessed an extremely pure Demon God bloodline, with immeasurable potential in The Demonic Path.

In her view, as someone born with a noble Demon God lineage, she was destined to be synonymous with ’power,’ ’evil,’ ’cruelty,’ and ’cunning’! The care of the Queen Mother and the protection of her subordinates would only erode her will! A descendant of the Demon God should rely on their own power to carve out a boundless demon nation!

Therefore, during a battle her mother led against the Nine Heavens, she stole the Demon Race’s treasure, the Realm-Breaking Escape Shuttle, pierced through to the Cangyuan Realm—one of the Ten Lands—and quietly slipped inside.

That was how she came to this world, becoming a glorious invader from the Demon Realm and revered by the Asura Sect as their Saintess.

Calling her the Saintess was merely a pretense to deceive outsiders. In fact, as a direct descendant of the Destruction Heaven Demon, she held absolute and supreme authority within the Asura Sect. Even the Sect Master of the Asura Sect dared not show her the slightest disrespect.

After all, for every gain, there is a loss. After receiving the blessing of destructive demonic power through the Great Demonic Sacrifice, all Demon Cultivators of the Asura Sect became servants of the Destruction Heaven Demon. When facing Ye Miedie, who possessed the pure bloodline of the Destruction Heaven Demon, they simply could not resist and had to obey her every command.

However, this bloodline suppression was limited to the disciples of the Asura Sect. Cultivators from Taoism, the Buddhist Sect, or any other branch of the Demonic Path were not affected by Ye Miedie’s bloodline.

It had to be known that Ye Miedie was still very young. At thirteen years of age, a high-level demon of her caliber was still in her childhood, not even yet an adolescent. At this stage, she was extremely vulnerable. A few Nascent Soul Stage Venerables from the Human Race could easily threaten her life.

Therefore, Ye Miedie decided to focus on building both her personal strength and her influence. On one hand, she had to cultivate diligently and crush all the so-called chosen talents from the Righteous Sects of both immortal and Buddhist cultivation.

On the other hand, the number of disciples and the overall strength of the Asura Sect also needed to grow. A mere hundred people were hardly enough. How could they conquer the world with that?

She had made up her mind, but she had absolutely no experience when it came to developing a faction’s influence. She didn’t know the first thing about it. As for the brutes of the Asura Sect, the less said, the better. For all their brawn, they had little in the way of brains. Corroded by destructive demonic power, it would be a cause for celebration if they didn’t start killing each other over the slightest disagreement. Expecting them to teach her how to expand the sect was simply unrealistic.

Therefore, she had the Asura Sect contact the "Supreme Benevolent Savior," hoping to learn some strategies for developing a faction from the Demon Cultivators of other sects.

Seeing that the red packets had already grabbed everyone’s attention in the group, Ye Miedie quickly composed her thoughts and posted her bounty question.

Asura Sect Saintess: The day of Mars’s ominous passage is approaching, heralding the once-in-eight-hundred-years era of great contention. Our Asura Sect wishes to expand its influence and recruit disciples, but we are not skilled in strategy. Today, I, the Saintess, invite you all to speak freely and offer your counsel. This young lady will generously reward anyone who can help the Asura Sect grow and prosper.

[The Asura Sect Saintess has posted a bounty question.]

GASP...

GASP...

GASP...

Had the sun risen in the west? That bunch from the Asura Sect, who had nothing but muscles for brains, were actually offering a bounty for advice on managing their sect?

Was there any justice left in the world?

Were there any laws?

If that bunch of brutes actually learned to use their heads, would there be any room left for the other powers of the Demonic Path?

This was unbelievable!

However, considering the Construction Currency reward, the prospect of friendship with the Asura Sect, and the subtle attitude shown by the group owner, many Demon Cultivators were still eager to curry favor with the Asura Sect Saintess.

For instance—

Idle Today, Listening to Brothel Music: To be honest, the Saintess’s problem is something we at the Hehuan Sect have long struggled with. The youth of today are becoming less and less motivated. Some of our lower-level disciples have become increasingly perfunctory in their service, too lazy to even practice the basic Eighteen Forms. They think they can just spread their legs and make a living lying flat. Where in the world is life so easy? Of course, I’m only talking about the lower-level disciples. If any of you fine gentlemen from the group come to visit, I’ll definitely arrange for the ones with the best looks, attitude, and skills. Absolutely worth your silver!

[User "Idle Today, Listening to Brothel Music" has been muted for ten hours by "Supreme Benevolent Savior".]

Supreme Benevolent Savior: The topic has gone astray.

Demon Cultivator A: Recruiting is so hard! There are too few young people willing to strive and struggle these days! I spent more than half a month trying to entice people in a busy city and couldn’t recruit a single one! I even got reported. An old Taoist from the Mount Shu Sword Sect chased me for thousands of miles. I almost kicked the bucket.

Demon Cultivator C: Your method is wrong. If you find the right approach, it’s incredibly easy to trick some ignorant youths and guide them onto The Demonic Path.

Asura Sect Saintess: I’m eager to hear the details!

[The Asura Sect Saintess has tipped Demon Cultivator C 888 Construction Currency.]

GASP...

Demon Cultivator C: Thank you for the tip, Saintess. In that case, I’ll offer a humble suggestion to get things started.

Demon Cultivator C: For example, I have a friend who lives in hiding within the territory governed by the Great Vajra Temple. He disguises himself as a Teacher and moves between the various academies.

Demon Cultivator C: He secretly screens children for aptitude in demonic cultivation. When he finds a promising candidate, he incites the other children to bully him.

Demon Cultivator C: Then, when the child is at their lowest point from the bullying, he appears as their savior.

Demon Cultivator C: This makes the child feel that everyone else is wicked and only the Teacher is good to him.

Demon Cultivator C: After repeating this several times, he can easily gain the child’s trust, making the child closer to him than to their own parents.

Demon Cultivator C: He then constantly indoctrinates the child with ideas like ’It’s not you who’s wrong, it’s the world,’ ’Only by controlling power can you control your destiny,’ and ’The Demonic Path also has its own form of justice.’

Demon Cultivator C: It doesn’t take long to lead these children astray, and they become the most loyal and evil of demon children, devoted only to him!

Demon Cultivator C: Heh heh heh...

...

Asura Sect Saintess: Brilliant! I’ve learned something new!

Asura Sect Saintess: I shall try this another day. Thank you for your guidance, fellow cultivator.

[The Asura Sect Saintess has tipped Demon Cultivator C 888 Construction Currency.]

...

GASP...

This new Saintess is so incredibly wealthy!

Instantly, more people in the group started getting restless.

Demon Cultivator D: I also have a friend who lives in hiding within the Great Vajra Temple’s territory and cooperates with the major gambling dens.

Demon Cultivator D: For just a dozen pieces of silver, he can buy a list of Degenerate Gamblers from the dens. Then, he sets up schemes step by step to make those gamblers lose everything.

Demon Cultivator D: Once they are destitute and their families have left them, he arranges for the gambling den’s thugs to beat and humiliate them, pushing them into a state of rage and despair.

Demon Cultivator D: At that moment, my friend appears.

Demon Cultivator D: Among these Degenerate Gamblers, those with good aptitude are initiated into The Demonic Path and taught how to cultivate. Those with mediocre aptitude are tricked into leaving the safety of the Immortal Sect’s territory and dealt with in the wilderness.

Demon Cultivator D: These utterly depraved Degenerate Gamblers are filled with endless resentment before they die, making them excellent materials for refining Malicious Ghosts.

Demon Cultivator D: Heh heh heh...

...

Asura Sect Saintess: Brilliant! I’ve learned something new!

Asura Sect Saintess: I shall try this another day. Thank you for your guidance, fellow cultivator.

[The Asura Sect Saintess has tipped Demon Cultivator D 888 Construction Currency.]

...

Anymore? Anymore?

In the Saintess’s Grand Hall, the little demon loli’s eyes sparkled with excitement.

So wicked! That was so wicked! I never expected these Demon Cultivators from the Human Race to be even more sinister and malevolent than us, the actual Demon Race. Indeed. You live and you learn. The Queen Mother was so right! If I want to become the strongest, most terrifying, and most evil Great Demon God, this missy still has so much to learn!
