Chapter 1817 His achievements surpassed those of the emperor, and his virtue exceeded that of the sa
Upon returning to the imperial palace, Mo Fan headed straight for the highest throne, with the three women following closely behind.
"Over the years, although my sister and I have both presided over state affairs here, we have never touched that position, just to wait for your return, my husband!" Yun Rou said with a smile.
"Actually, there's no need for that. It's just a seat. I wouldn't say anything even if you sat there," Mo Fan said with a smile.
"No, this seat is only for you!"
However, both Yun Rou and Bai Yaoyao looked at him with serious expressions.
"My lord, you are the ruler of the Myriad Demon Dynasty, and you are also the backbone of my entire dynasty. Therefore, no cultivator other than you can touch that position, otherwise it will cause chaos in my dynasty!" Yun Rou said solemnly.
"Uh...does it really need to be this rigorous?"
Mo Fan shook his head with a wry smile.
"Very well, since none of you are willing to sit, then I, the Emperor, shall sit!"
Mo Fan shrugged and immediately sat on the imperial throne.
"The court assembly begins! Summon all ministers of the Myriad Demon Emperor's Court to enter the hall and pay homage to the Emperor!"
Standing in white below the platform, he shouted loudly.
Soon, scattered footsteps could be heard outside, followed by one powerful demon or high-level cultivator after another filing into the hall.
The huge hall was instantly filled with over a hundred people!
"Meet the Emperor!"
"Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor!!"
The assembled officials shouted and knelt down at that moment.
Mo Fan sat atop the imperial throne, looking down at this scene. For some reason, he felt a surge of emotion and a touch of passion within him.
"So this is what it feels like to wield power over the world?"
Mo Fan smiled slightly, raised his hands slightly, and said calmly, "My beloved subjects, rise!"
"Wow—"
In an instant, hundreds of powerful demons and cultivators at the Saint Realm and above stood up.
Mo Fan's gaze swept over them one by one, and he found that most of them were unfamiliar faces. Moreover, he discovered that the proportion of human cultivators was not low, about 40%!
While Mo Fan was sizing up these ministers, the ministers were also secretly observing Mo Fan, the legendary emperor.
However, none of them dared to look Mo Fan in the eye.
After all, the name of the Demon Emperor had long been renowned throughout the world and imprinted in the minds of all living beings in the Nine Provinces.
There were also some who disagreed, believing that Mo Fan was merely a mythical figure based on rumors.
Even if he's incredibly strong, isn't he still within this realm?
Therefore, Mo Fan, the Demon Emperor, was not particularly intimidating to some of his ministers.
However, at this moment, these officials all frowned after sensing Mo Fan's aura.
The reason is simple: they simply cannot sense any energy fluctuations emanating from Mo Fan!
This can only mean two things: either the being on the throne is just a mortal, or it is a terrifying cultivator whose cultivation level far surpasses theirs!
These officials were not stupid; they naturally knew that Mo Fan could not be an ordinary person. They were all terrified and dared not look at the emperor on the high platform again.
"I have noticed some unfamiliar faces in this hall, and there are also quite a few human cultivators."
Mo Fan spoke slowly, and upon hearing this, many human cultivators in the hall felt a chill run down their spines.
In fact, they were unaware of the Demon Emperor's temperament and were naturally worried that Mo Fan would take his anger out on them, the alien races.
"Of course, everyone can rest assured. No matter which race of cultivators you are, as long as you can enter my Ten Thousand Demon Emperor Dynasty and stand here, it means that you are all outstanding among the cultivators of your respective races, important officials of my Ten Thousand Demon Emperor Dynasty, and my brothers-in-arms!"
As you all know, my Wan Yao Dynasty embraces all rivers. As the monarch of the Dynasty, I naturally have the magnanimity to embrace all rivers, so you don't need to worry about anything.
As long as you do not violate my laws of the Myriad Demons Dynasty, you are subjects of my Myriad Demons Dynasty and my beloved ministers.
Of course, anyone who dares to violate the laws of the myriad demons, even a great demon at the Saint Emperor realm, will be punished according to the law!
After speaking, Mo Fan gradually smiled and said, "Although I have not returned for more than five hundred years, I believe everyone has heard about me, so I will not introduce myself here."
"However, I imagine everyone is quite curious about what kind of demon I am, and where I have been for the past five hundred years?"
Upon hearing this, all the ministers showed expressions of curiosity.
This is indeed something they are interested in.
Mo Fan's entry into the Nine Netherworld was not publicized extensively, as this matter concerned the survival of all people in the entire Nine Provinces Continent. If it were publicized rashly, it might cause panic among all the people in the Nine Provinces Continent.
Therefore, many people do not know where Mo Fan went during these five hundred years, and there were even rumors that he, the Heavenly Demon Emperor, had died.
"Throughout my cultivation journey, I have slain great demons, fought against evil cultivators, and devoured countless living beings. I have also hunted celestial beings and annihilated demons for the sake of all living beings in the world."
Therefore, I don't know what kind of demon I am.
Perhaps my hands are stained with blood, and I have fought desperately for the sake of all living beings, but whether I was right or wrong can only be judged by posterity.
Mo Fan spoke calmly, his gaze sweeping over the assembled cultivators, before smiling faintly, "Furthermore, in the past five hundred years, I have traveled to the Nine Netherworld."
Many of you cultivators may not have heard of the so-called Nine Nether Realms, but in folk tradition, it has a very fitting name: the Underworld!
"What!!"
Inside the Hall of Ten Thousand Demons, all the ministers were shocked upon hearing this.
Next, Mo Fan will explain why he went to the Underworld, and why he risked his life alone for the sake of all living beings in the Nine Provinces to venture into a great world that is comparable to the Spirit World, but is thousands of times more dangerous than the Spirit World, and why he fought alone for hundreds of years for this cause!
The story wasn't particularly vivid, but it stirred the hearts of all the ministers in the hall.
Even those human cultivators who harbored some prejudice against Mo Fan were now completely convinced of his worth!
For the sake of all living beings in the Nine Provinces, he went alone to the Nine Netherworld and fought for hundreds of years!
What a magnificent spirit!
What courage that must have taken!
Looking across the entire world, from ancient times to the present, there has only been one Heavenly Demon Emperor, Mo Fan!
What an honor it must be to serve under such a wise and virtuous ruler!
"The existence of an emperor in the Nine Provinces is a blessing for all living beings in the Nine Provinces!"
"We are deeply grateful to the Emperor for his efforts and sacrifices for the sake of all living beings in the Nine Provinces!!"
After listening to Mo Fan's account, all the ministers were convinced and even some radical elements among the human cultivators had their prejudices against the demon race dispelled.
After five hundred years of development and the influx of a large number of human cultivators, factions naturally emerged within the Myriad Demon Dynasty, and conflicts naturally arose between these factions.
However, at this moment, they were all deeply moved by Mo Fan's experience, and instantly realized that their struggles were nothing more than for some immediate interests.
In the grand scheme of things, they are utterly insignificant among all living beings in the Nine Provinces.
But the Emperor was different. He rose from humble beginnings, broke the demon race's bad habit of eating raw meat and drinking blood, and resolved the enmity between the demon race and the human race. He helped the Nine Provinces kill the celestial beings and slaughter the demon race. Finally, he went alone into the Nine Netherworld for more than 500 years and finally solved the Nine Netherworld calamity!
Such merits are beyond the reach of even the so-called ancient sages.
This must be what it means to have achievements surpassing those of emperors and virtues exceeding those of sages.
