“Supernatural ability?”
Upon hearing this, the five pig demons exchanged glances and then shook their heads in unison.
“You’re quintuplets, yet not one of you has comprehended a supernatural ability. What use are you?”
Mo Fan raised an eyebrow, glaring fiercely at the five demons.
“General, don’t blame us!
We brothers are naturally dim-witted and truly haven’t comprehended any supernatural abilities. Please calm your anger!”
“That’s right, General. Not to mention us five brothers, even in all of Black Cloud Mountain, there aren’t many small demons who’ve grasped supernatural abilities.
This stuff depends on bloodline, not talent…
Our old mother was barely even a demon, just a wild boar king in the Demon Spirit Mountains. Naturally, she didn’t pass down any powerful bloodline to us.”
The eldest of the five demons, Pig One, gave a bitter smile while pleading: “General, we brothers are wild boar demons. We smell bad, our skin is thick, and our meat is tough and coarse. It’s not tasty. Please spare us!”
“Damn, why does this spiel sound so familiar?”
Mo Fan cursed inwardly but was amused by the pig demon’s words.
He thought it over. These five demons were only at the early Demon Soldier Realm. Even if he devoured them, he likely wouldn’t gain much demonic energy. It would be better to take them under his wing.
To grow stronger, having a group of demon followers was essential.
In the future, when facing other demon generals, having a bunch of demon soldiers under him would make him look impressive, wouldn’t it?
With this in mind, Mo Fan frowned and said: “I heard earlier that you’re demons from Black Cloud Mountain. I’m a demon general from Black Wind Mountain, and we’ve never gotten along with Black Cloud Mountain. Asking me to let you go puts me in a difficult spot!”
The five demons’ faces turned pale, but Pig One quickly reacted, hurriedly saying to Mo Fan: “General, that’s easy. We can leave Black Cloud Mountain right now!”
“But even if you leave Black Cloud Mountain, what does that have to do with me? You dared to besiege a demon from my Black Wind Mountain. That alone means I can’t let you off lightly!”
Mo Fan spoke calmly, his words causing the rabbit demon, Bai Xue, beside him to feel deeply moved.
She thought Mo Fan was standing up for her, which touched her greatly.
“General, that’s easy too. We can join Black Wind Mountain. Wouldn’t that make us part of your side?” Pig One caught on quickly and spoke up immediately.
“You joining Black Wind Mountain has nothing to do with me,” Mo Fan said, his brows slightly furrowed.
Pig One was stunned for a moment, then kowtowed to Mo Fan: “We brothers are willing to pledge ourselves to the General and serve you as our master!”
The other four pig demons followed suit, kowtowing like garlic being pounded.
“Who the hell says pigs are dumb? These guys are pretty sharp!”
Mo Fan cursed inwardly but nodded: “Alright, seeing your sincerity, I’ll reluctantly take you in!
Since you brothers are turning over a new leaf, I’ve decided to reward each of you with a pill!”
With a wave of his hand, five black pills emerged from the black mist, flying to each of the five demons.
“Thank you, General, for the reward!”
The five demons thanked him, but their faces looked grim, their hands trembling as they held the pills.
Mo Fan gave a smile that didn’t reach his eyes, watching the five demons. Only when they swallowed the pills did he show a satisfied smile, saying softly: “Rest assured, as long as you brothers serve me well and don’t betray me, everything will be fine!”
“Lai Bao, you’re something else. Not long after breaking through to Demon General Realm, you’ve already taken in so many demon soldiers. I’m jealous!” He Feifei said with a chuckle, her eyes tinged with envy.
She was also a demon general now and naturally wanted to take in some demon soldiers to command.
“You’re a demon general now too, so no need to envy me. If we encounter any stray demon soldiers later, I’ll let you have them!”
Sensing the envy in He Feifei’s words, Mo Fan smiled, then turned to the pig demons and asked: “Do you have names?”
“Replying to the General, we brothers do have names.
I’m called Pig One, he’s Pig Two, this is Pig Three…”
Pig One pointed to his five brothers, introducing them from Pig One to Pig Five.
These names left not only Mo Fan but also He Feifei, Er Ha, and the other three demons dumbfounded.
While demons often took names casually, weren’t these five brothers’ names a bit too casual?
Mo Fan rolled his eyes. Since these guys already had names, he couldn’t be bothered to give them new ones. He asked: “By the way, you just came from Demon Spirit Valley. Do you know what the situation is there? Are there any powerful human cultivators present?”
“Replying to the General, we were terrified at the time. How could we pay attention to such things?
The whole valley was in chaos, and we five brothers nearly got separated.”
Pig One, also known as Pig One, spoke with lingering fear.
Mo Fan frowned slightly but didn’t say more.
He could understand their mindset. With humans attacking, the demons were scared out of their wits, focused only on escaping. How could they care about anything else?
“Master, are you looking for those little demons under your command?”
At this moment, Er Ha couldn’t help but speak up.
“Exactly. Do you know where they are?”
Mo Fan nodded, looking at this guy.
If he remembered correctly, this guy had seen his group of little demons at the peak of Black Wind Mountain, so he was somewhat familiar with them.
“When I was leaving Demon Spirit Valley, I saw a rabbit demon and a sparrow demon fleeing west,” Er Ha said.
To the west?
Mo Fan’s brows furrowed slightly.
According to the map of the Hundred Thousand Mountains, the west of Demon Spirit Valley was already deep within the mountains.
The rabbit demon and sparrow demon Er Ha mentioned were clearly Red Eyes and Chirpy.
But where had Mr. Pig and Da Li gone?
With this in mind, Mo Fan said: “In that case, we’ll head back to Demon Spirit Valley.”
“Huh?”
Mo Fan’s words shocked the demons. Er Ha, with a bitter face, said glumly: “Master, we barely escaped that cursed place…”
“You can choose not to go.”
Mo Fan glanced at him, his voice indifferent.
“Really?”
Er Ha’s eyes lit up instantly.
“Of course it’s true. But I might have to consider turning you into a feast.
After all, no master likes a disobedient little demon. Don’t you think?”
Mo Fan spoke softly, making Er Ha flinch. He gave an awkward smile: “Master, I was just joking. How could I not listen to you?
If Master tells me to go east, I’ll never go west!”
“Pathetic!”
Mo Fan rolled his eyes, then scanned the other demons and asked: “Anyone else unwilling to go? I’m a reasonable master and won’t force you.”
The pig demon brothers shook their heads like rattles. Pig One even grinned widely: “We brothers are willing to carry the flag for the General and lead the charge!”
“Very good. You five brothers have quite the resolve. When we enter the valley, you’ll lead the way!”
Mo Fan grinned, showing two rows of big white teeth, causing the pig demon brothers to gasp in unison.
“…!!!”
