The moon hung high, draping the entire Black Wind Mountain in a layer of silvery gauze.
On the martial training ground at the mountain peak, several thousand demons sat cross-legged, bathed in moonlight while thick waves of demonic qi erupted from their bodies one after another.
Mo Fan sat high upon his throne, a joyful smile on his face as he watched the demons below cultivate. Almost every moment saw another breakthrough, filling him with an immense sense of achievement.
“After tonight, the strength of our Black Wind Mountain demons will undergo a qualitative leap!”
“With several demon kings like us holding the fort, from this day forth Black Wind Mountain shall rank among the top royal demon mountains of the Phoenix Cry demon domain!”
Bai Tian Tian spoke with a faint smile. Looking at the thriving Black Wind Mountain, she felt deep gratification, yet a trace of wistful emotion inevitably stirred in her heart.
When she had first arrived, Black Wind Mountain had only a scattered few hundred demons. There was just one demon king, Zhu Xianfeng, and a mere three demon generals. In the eyes of a former demon king like her, it had been utterly destitute.
Yet not long after, the human cultivator alliance attacked, and Black Wind Mountain was completely washed in blood.
Demon King Zhu Xianfeng died in battle, and of the three great demon generals, some betrayed him while others perished.
By the time Mo Fan returned, only the old, weak, sick, and disabled remained on Black Wind Mountain, all preparing to pack their pots and pans and flee.
Back then, everyone believed Black Wind Mountain was finished.
Yet right at that moment, Mo Fan stepped forward and declared himself king atop the ruined mountain.
How much time had passed since then?
Not only had Black Wind Mountain long since regained its former glory, it now far surpassed the prosperity of Zhu Xianfeng’s era. After the recent battle, Mo Fan’s name shook the entire Phoenix Cry demon domain, and Black Wind Mountain naturally rose with the tide, instantly becoming one of the foremost royal demon mountains, and the most renowned at that!
Today’s Black Wind Mountain boasted several thousand demons. There were now five demon kings, over a dozen demon generals, and countless demon soldiers!
One could say that, whether in scale or strength, the current Black Wind Mountain far exceeded Zhu Xianfeng’s time by countless times!
All of this was thanks to Mo Fan alone!
Bai Tian Tian understood even more clearly that this was merely the beginning. The immense harvest Mo Fan had reaped in the True Dragon Lair was destined to raise the strength of the entire Black Wind Mountain several times over!
“With this fellow’s help, perhaps I really can wash away my past shame!”
“Personally slaying my enemy is no longer an unattainable dream!”
Bai Tian Tian turned her head and looked at Mo Fan sitting beside her, grinning as he drank alone. A smile unconsciously crept onto her own face.
“I once thought all his talk was just jokes. Now it seems this guy can actually do it!”
Bai Tian Tian thought silently, and the heavy oppression that had weighed on her heart for years instantly lightened.
“What, never seen a demon as handsome as this king?”
Mo Fan sensed Bai Tian Tian’s gaze and immediately struck a smug pose, then put on a melancholic expression and said lightly, “Don’t fall for me. I’m just a legend!”
“Bleugh…”
“…”
“Hey! Even if you’re not smitten, you don’t have to throw up, do you?”
“You’re too much!”
Watching Bai Tian Tian pretend to retch, Mo Fan was instantly annoyed.
“Who asked you to be so full of yourself?”
Bai Tian Tian rolled her eyes, a sly smile flashing across her face.
“As expected of a captivating snake demoness. Even rolling your eyes looks beautiful!”
Mo Fan murmured, staring straight at her. As he spoke, a strong whiff of alcohol hit her face.
“Have you been drinking fake liquor?”
“You’re even talking nonsense now!”
Bai Tian Tian frowned slightly and waved her hand in front of her, trying to dispel the smell.
“You’re the one talking nonsense!”
“Where would Black Wind Mountain get fake liquor?”
“If anyone dared serve this king fake liquor, I’d crack open his skull, use it as a cup, and drink his brains as a side dish!”
Mo Fan chuckled, his words already slurring a little.
Of course he hadn’t drunk fake liquor; he was simply a bit tipsy.
These past few days he had been riding high, and after drinking continuously for several days in a row, even a demon king’s constitution was struggling. He was somewhat drunk, and his cheeks had turned slightly red.
As he spoke, he suddenly stepped forward twice and stretched out his right hand towards Bai Tian Tian.
Bai Tian Tian’s brows furrowed, ready to dodge, but she quickly realised Mo Fan had wrapped an arm around her waist.
Before she could cry out in surprise, Mo Fan’s other hand extended a finger and lifted her chin.
“Waa!!”
From afar came a huge chorus of shocked exclamations.
Bai Tian Tian’s cheeks instantly flushed crimson at the sound. Mo Fan, perhaps because of the alcohol, paid it no mind, or maybe he was pretending not to hear.
Under the gentle pressure of his finger, Bai Tian Tian had no choice but to tilt her head up obediently.
Mo Fan immediately leaned in until he was only a foot away from her face.
“Tian Tian, you… you’re so beautiful!”
Mo Fan spoke, his words slightly slurred.
This was the first time he had observed a female demon so closely.
Smelling the fragrance emanating from her body, gazing at her exquisitely charming face and those fiery red lips that seemed to invite him to taste them, Mo Fan felt a rush of heat flare up in his lower abdomen.
“Gulp…”
He swallowed involuntarily.
Then his gaze, now tinged with aggression, slid down from her red lips, past her snow-white chin, to a stretch of pale neck, and then further…
“Great King, you’ve had too much to drink!”
Bai Tian Tian tried to push him away, but with her strength she could not manage it at all.
Feeling the woman in his arms struggle only excited Mo Fan more. His strong left arm suddenly tightened, pulling Bai Tian Tian firmly against him so he could fully feel the cool sensation of her body.
“Little snake demoness, looks like you can’t tell who’s the real king here!”
“I, Mo Fan, am the demon king of Black Wind Mountain. What’s wrong with hugging you a bit? And you still dare resist?”
Mo Fan glared, then leaned his head even closer.
Bai Tian Tian lightly bit her red lip, but soon gave up struggling. Feeling the scorching heat radiating from Mo Fan’s body, she closed her eyes.
Yet just before closing them, a crafty glint flashed across her gaze.
Seeing Bai Tian Tian now looking completely at his mercy, Mo Fan paused for a moment, swallowed again, and muttered, “Bloody hell, no wonder Fahai chased Bai Suzhen to the ends of the earth. When snake demons look like this, who wouldn’t want a taste?”
“Screw it, let’s do this!”
Mo Fan cursed inwardly and was about to go for it when suddenly he felt a tremendous surge of demonic qi. The beautiful demoness in his arms instantly transformed into an enormous white serpent!
“Great King, come on then!”
The white snake spoke in human tongue, its massive jaws opening slightly, instantly giving Mo Fan the fright of his life.
“Mummy!”
“I knew interspecies stuff was no good!”
“No wonder everyone admires Xu Xian! Everyone envies Xu Xian! But absolutely nobody wants to bloody become Xu Xian!!”
Mo Fan yelled in terror, dropped the snake, and ran.
“Great King, where are you off to?”
A huge white tail suddenly lashed out, instantly coiling around Mo Fan’s body and dragging him straight back…
