Another group of tall demon cultivators came from White Elephant Ridge, and the leader was a white elephant demon who had now manifested as a slightly plump, white-faced youth.
This spiritual body appeared quite ordinary, but his cultivation had reached the late King Realm, and from his position, all the demons from White Elephant Ridge clearly followed his lead.
“I heard that White Elephant Ridge has produced two saint sons this time, but I wonder which one has come?”
Bai Shuang’s voice rang out softly. She had some knowledge of the powerful demons in the Hundred Thousand Mountains, so she knew many things that Mo Fan’s three demons were unaware of.
“Oh? Are they powerful?” Mo Fan could not help but ask.
“Those chosen as saint sons by the major demon clans’ sacred mountains are all top geniuses picked from a hundred, and I’ve even heard that some saint sons have divine body followers, which says it all!” Bai Shuang said with a light laugh.
“Even divine bodies are their followers?”
Mo Fan’s eyes widened at this, and then he frowned. “That’s just too abnormal, isn’t it?”
Abnormal?
Bai Shuang rolled her eyes, looked seriously at Mo Fan, glanced at the two female demons beside him, and pouted. “It is indeed quite abnormal!”
Mo Fan did not think much about it at the time and was pondering Bai Shuang’s earlier words. He immediately asked, “As one of the twin prodigies of Phoenix Cry Mountain Demon Domain, have you met the saint son of Phoenix Cry Mountain?”
“Of course I have.”
Bai Shuang nodded as if it were obvious.
“What kind of demon is he? Is he strong?” Mo Fan pressed, the latter question being what he really wanted to know.
He had once briefly encountered the saint son of Phoenix Cry Mountain in the Fire Phoenix Palace, though he was not entirely sure if that fellow was indeed the saint son.
He did not know how strong the other was, but he was definitely a fool, the kind that was easy to trick.
Thinking back to how he had duped that guy into taking the blame, Mo Fan could not help but feel a urge to laugh.
“How should I put it? Lord Feng Gu is a very special demon. Unlike most demons, his greatest trait is that he stays away from women!” Bai Shuang thought for a moment and said.
Feng Gu?
Mo Fan nodded, then curled his lip. “That’s not much of a trait. He and this king are just the same in that regard.”
Bai Shuang rolled her eyes again and snorted coldly. “Lord Feng Gu is nothing like you. You have the desire but lack the courage, while he truly stays away from women!”
“There are demons who stay away from women?”
Mo Fan frowned, his face full of doubt. He knew his own situation. Though he had not yet been intimate with any female demon, it did not mean he did not want to.
On the contrary, on many quiet nights, Mo Fan would feel restless.
There was no helping it. Black Wind Mountain was only so big. In the past, the peak was far away, so he rarely heard the sound of clapping. The few times he did hear drumming, it was all thunder and little rain.
But since he took charge, things had changed completely. Perhaps because the demons of Black Wind Mountain were now too comfortable, every night was filled with vigorous clapping sounds, which naturally made Mo Fan itch with desire.
However, as a former human who had received a certain level of higher education, Mo Fan could not keep up with the advanced openness of the Black Wind Mountain demons.
Even though he was now the demon king of Black Wind Mountain and could freely take demon concubines, if he were to actually clap with a demon, he would still hesitate. The barrier in his heart was hard to overcome.
This was the main reason he was repeatedly teased by the alluring female demons around him.
But Feng Gu was different. As a native demon, he must have been immersed in the ways of demon clapping since childhood. Under such circumstances, Mo Fan found it hard to understand how the other could hold back.
“I don’t know about other demons, but Lord Feng Gu is just such an extraordinary man.”
Bai Shuang spoke with some admiration, then continued in a serious tone, “By the way, Lord Feng Gu is also a natural divine body, and it’s said to be the extremely powerful Divine Phoenix Body, with true phoenix blood awakening within him. His strength is immense.
The last time I saw him, he was already at the late King Realm!
So he is currently the youngest great demon at the late King Realm in our entire Phoenix Cry Mountain Demon Domain!”
This was the first time Mo Fan had seen Bai Shuang praise a demon so highly, and he noticed that the moment Feng Gu was mentioned, this female demon seemed to turn into a lovestruck fool, losing all her previous wisdom.
“It’s just a divine body. I’ve encountered them before. So-called saint sons are merely equivalent to the personal disciples of human transcendent forces.
Wasn’t Jiang Wu strong enough?
Yet he was still beaten by this king until he fled with his head in his hands.”
Mo Fan curled his lip.
“Jiang Wu is far more powerful than you imagine. The reason he couldn’t beat you was only because his cultivation was suppressed,” Bai Shuang said irritably.
“That’s exactly it!”
“This king is invincible at the same realm!”
Mo Fan grinned smugly. “No matter if it’s a saint son or a personal disciple of a great human sect, within the same realm, this king fears none! In this king’s eyes, they are all just dishes on this king’s menu!”
“…”
At these words, all the demons could not help but laugh and cry.
Bai Shuang was slightly stunned, then looked seriously at Mo Fan and actually nodded. “Within the same realm, indeed few demons can compare to you!”
“Even Lord Feng Gu might not be able to defeat you at the same realm, so you really are abnormal, the greatly abnormal kind!”
“…”
This time, it was Mo Fan’s turn to be speechless. He could not help but protest, “Hey, how am I abnormal?”
“Pfft…”
The female demons immediately burst into laughter.
Their banter drew the attention of the other cultivators on the mountain peak, their expressions varied.
At the Divine Martial Sect’s side, Cang Gu looked at Mo Fan’s group, a trace of envy in his eyes. He sighed, “Damn it, this kid isn’t here to hunt for treasure. He’s clearly here to show off!”
“Senior brother is right. This demon is even more hateful than those fiends from the Sun Moon Divine Sect!”
Unexpectedly, as soon as Cang Gu finished speaking, a junior brother immediately chimed in. Looking at Mo Fan’s group laughing and talking, he gritted his teeth. “That guy is clearly uglier than me, so why are the women around him one more beautiful than the next?”
“Senior brother, if there’s a chance later, let’s set this kid up. The most beautiful one is yours, and the other two are mine, how about that?”
The Divine Martial Sect cultivator grinned, looking rather sleazy.
“Slap!”
In response, Cang Gu slapped him on the forehead and cursed, “What are you thinking?”
“Don’t all three belong to this senior brother?”
“Huh?”
“Senior brother, you’re too unfair!”
The cultivator protested gloomily.
“Enough, daydreaming is fine, but if you really had the guts, your senior brother would cheer you on. But if you want to drag me into robbing people, I wouldn’t do it even if you beat me to death!
You didn’t see how terrifying that guy’s strength is?
If we were outside, I’d have confidence in suppressing him, but in here, I think I should still play it safe…
Your senior brother values his life!”
…
Beneath the ten-thousand-zhang abyss was a cavern resembling the ferocious maw of a giant beast.
This was the so-called True Dragon Lair!
At this moment, outside the True Dragon Lair, Yun Shan was glaring hatefully at the youth before him.
The youth’s sword had pierced his heart, causing his vital energy to rapidly drain.
“Jiang…”
Elder Yun Shan only managed to utter this word before he died instantly, collapsing stiffly to the ground.
The youth looked expressionlessly at Elder Yun Shan’s corpse, casually slicing open his chest with a sword to retrieve the sealed golden core. He said indifferently, “I didn’t want to kill you originally, but you were too stubborn!”
After taking all the items from Elder Yun Shan’s body, the youth finally looked at the golden core in his hand and murmured, “Using the demon seeding method to forcibly seize the power of this core will waste most of it, but it should still help recover some of my injuries, right?”
“Damn it, I, Jiang Wu, will definitely kill you!!”
Just then, a sobbing sound suddenly came from deep within the cavern, and the terrifying aura that had enveloped the youth gradually dissipated, causing his eyes to narrow!
The terrifying creature guarding the entrance to the True Dragon Lair was dead!
This meant that the true True Dragon Lair was about to open!
