Cultivator With Modern AI - Chapter 565: The Demon Return
Inside a study room, a middle-aged man wearing royal robes was sitting and reading several scrolls in front of him.
Suddenly, he raised his eyebrows and stared at the black smoke that had appeared in front of him out of nowhere. However, just as he was about to release his energy to suppress it, a strong pressure had already pressed him against his desk. “Ugh! Who are you?”
The black smoke turned into a man with a horn on his head dressed in black, and he then mocked the middle-aged man. “Keh… keh… You may be strong for a person in this world, but you are just an ant in my eyes.”
“Demon!” The middle-aged man exclaimed in shock, but he was powerless under the one-horned demon’s pressure. ‘Damn it! How could there be a demon as strong as him in this world? And I never knew of his presence!’
“Heh.” The one-horned demon snorted and clutched his neck, and he stared at the middle-age man with his red eyes. “I give you two choices, submit to my master or I will kill you and your family.”
‘Fuck! I am the ruler in this continent, but now he asked me to submit to someone else!’ The middle-aged man cursed in his heart, but he felt he had no other choice. “Who… who is your master? What… What does he want from me?”
“You are not worthy to know the identity of my master.” The one-horned demon answered with a shake of the head. “My master will help you to rule this world, but you must completely submit to him.”
‘Complete control of this world?’ The middle-aged man fell silent, but he was enticed by the demon offer, especially since he really wanted to rule his world. Although he is the strongest in his world, but he can’t do it alone and needs the help of others.
Seeing him silent, The one-horned demon said impatiently. “Quickly tell me your decision, you live or die depending on your decision.”
After he thought for a while, the middle-aged man nodded to him. “Fine! As long as your master can help me rule this world, then I will submit to him completely.”
“Good!”
“Guah!” The middle-aged man groaned as the one-horned demon’s hands pierced his chest. But strangely, his chest didn’t bleed, and he could feel strange changes in his body. “What… what did you do to me?”
“Heh, I implanted the demon seed into your body.” The one-horned demon immediately pulled his hand out. “Sooner or later, you will turn into a demon like me, only then can you become my master’s servant.”
The middle-aged man’s eyes widened in shock when he heard that, even though he wanted to rule his world, he certainly didn’t want to become a demon, because the people in his world really hated demons, including his family.
But alas, he no longer had any other choice, since the demon seed had already been implanted into his body, so his fate was already sealed.
The one-horned demon smirked at seeing him like that; he then grabbed the middle-aged man’s shoulder and disappeared with him from the study room.
A few moments later, the two of them appeared in a dark room, where a person in a black mask was already waiting for them.
‘Damn it! This person is also stronger than me!’ The middle-aged man cried out in shock in his heart when he saw the black masked person.
The one-horned demon then released the middle-aged man, took out some equipment, and threw them to the black masked person.
Then he said something to the black masked person. “Sapphira, my master is giving you one last chance, if you still fail your task, then I will kill you per master’s order.”
Sapphira shuddered after hearing his threat; she herself realized that the demon in front of her was stronger than the current her, and his master was definitely much stronger than him. “I… I understand; I definitely won’t fail again.”
“Anyway, he is now my master’s servant, and he will help you carry out your task.” As he pointed at the middle-aged man, the one-horned demon said.
Sapphira raised her eyebrows and asked the middle-aged man. “What’s your name?”
The middle-aged man nodded and answered her. “I am Sheng Jiang.”
“I see.” Sapphire nodded in understanding.
After that, the one-horned demon gave some instructions to the two of them, and he immediately disappeared after relaying everything.
“So what should we do now?” Sheng Jiang asked.
Sapphira thought for a moment before answering him. “For now, we will conquer the eastern continent first; I’m sure that we can do it easily.”
“Hmm? Why don’t we conquer the southern continent first?” Sheng Jiang raised his eyebrows “I heard that the southern continent is weaker but more advanced than the eastern continent.”
“Tch!” Sapphira gritted her teeth at his words. “It seems that you don’t understand about the southern continent; I have tried conquering it before, but all my plans failed miserably.”
“How is that possible? With your current strength, it should be easy for you to conquer that continent.” Sheng Jiang looked at Sapphira in disbelief.
“As I previously stated, you are unfamiliar with that continent.” Sapphira replied with a shake of her head. “For your information, there are some very powerful people protecting the continent; even that one-horned demon doesn’t dare to act rashly to invade that continent.”
“Hmm?” Sheng Jiang was still unable to believe his explanation.
Sapphira sighed softly and asked him. “Have you ever met a cultivator who can thwart returning jade?”
“What!?” Sheng Jiang exclaimed in shock. “Are you kidding me? That’s impossible! I can’t believe any cultivator can move faster than returning jade!”
“Tch! You really are a frog in the well who doesn’t know the vastness of the ocean!” Sapphira said angrily as she stretched out her hand, and she then choked Sheng Jiang by his neck using her energy. “You can’t even move in front of me, yet you dare to doubt my words!”
*Bam*
“Guah!” Sheng Jiang groaned in pain and spewed blood from his mouth after Sapphira slammed him against the wall. ‘Damn it! She treated me like trash!’
“Humph!” Sapphira snorted and got up from her seat, and then she walked out as she said to him. “Let’s go to the eastern continent right now.”
‘Fuck!’ Sheng Jiang cursed in his heart, wiped his blood away, and then rushed after Sapphira.

Meanwhile, after he used void breaking steps several times, Xia Tian was already standing above a tree, and his eyes were locked on Feng Xian’er, who was still praying in front of her mother’s grave.
[Aren’t you going down to meet her, master?]
Xia Tian didn’t answer Alice’s question, and he kept his eyes on Feng Xian’er, waiting for her to finish praying.
Minutes later, Feng Xian’er finished and turned around, and she frowned when she saw Xia Tian on the tree. “How did you know I was here?”
“It was Qin Qing who told me that you must have come here.” Xia Tian replied as he landed in front of her.
‘Sigh! I will definitely scold Qin Qing later!’ Feng Xian’er was angry in her heart. “What do you want from me?”
“I just want to see you.”
“Now that you’ve seen me, you can leave this place.” Feng Xian’er said as she turned her face to the side.
“Xian’er.”
*Slap*
Feng Xian’er slapped his hand when Xia Tian was about to grab her hand. “Don’t touch me! And I don’t want to see you for now!”
Seeing Feng Xian’er like that, Xia Tian’s eyes turned golden, but he immediately calmed himself down. “All right, I will leave this place right now.”
After he said that, Xia Tian immediately used his void breaking steps again, disappearing from Feng Xian’er’s sight.
Feng Xian’er immediately fell to the ground and stared at the empty space in front of her as she muttered to herself. “I’m sorry, Xia Tian. I didn’t mean to be rude to you, but I really don’t want to see you right now, and let me think things over first.”
Without her noticing, Xia Tian was standing in the air right above her, and he smiled at her words.
[Hey, master, you have always been soft when it comes to Feng Xian’er.]
“I don’t know the reason myself, but I can never get angry and be hard with her.” Xia Tian replied while shaking his head, and after watching Feng Xian’er for quite a while, he then left the place and returned to the Xia Residence.

My other novels
1. Primordial ‘Dual Cultivator’ Dragon With System: To begin with, Ling Yun’s character was still too gentle and naive, when compared to Xia Tian, but he would change with time.
2. Otherworldly-Cultivator: There is no doubt about Chen Li’s character, he adapts quickly, smart, gentle towards those closest to him, and sometimes wise. But he is also psychotic, vile, ruthless, and violent towards his enemies.
3. Zhang Fei-The Abandoned Son: I have started rewriting this novel, and the story will be a lot different from the original novel.
