Facing the combined strike from the Black and White Demon King’s avatars, Mo Fan did not meet it head-on. Instead, he directly chose to vanish.
That terrifying Storm Divine Weapon struck nothing but air, directly tearing open the dense black thunderclouds in the sky, as if blasting a hole through the entire firmament.
Sensing Mo Fan’s disappearance, the Black and White Demon King’s brows furrowed slightly. Immediately after, his wings flapped behind him. In an instant, he arrived at the severed cliff at the summit of White Feather Mountain.
“Why did you evade?”
The Black and White Demon King looked at Mo Fan, who had stationed himself at the summit, his tone carrying a hint of dissatisfaction.
“If I cannot receive it, am I not allowed to dodge?”
Mo Fan looked at the Black and White Demon King with a half-smile. Then he waved his hand and said, “Let us call this battle a draw.”
“Although I cannot receive it, you also cannot hit me. So continuing to fight would yield no result.”
His words caused the Black and White Demon King’s brows to furrow even deeper. Just as he was about to speak, Ancestor Bai Lu beside them interjected, “Enough, let this matter end here. Do you truly believe this brat cannot receive your attack?”
“Ancestor, I…”
“Lai Bao is giving face to our White Feather Mountain. If you insist on exposing it, things will become less pleasant.”
Ancestor Bai Lu waved his hand. His words caused the Black and White Demon King’s pupils to contract sharply. They also startled the surrounding group of demon kings inwardly.
Ancestor Bai Lu had made it very clear. This Demon King Lai Bao was clearly holding back.
“Ancestor Bai Lu overstates it. This senior’s attack just now was truly formidable.”
Mo Fan smiled and spoke at this moment, helping the Black and White Demon King save some face.
He had indeed held back, partly out of respect for Ancestor Bai Lu. After all, this visit was to seek assistance. If he ruthlessly thrashed every demon king on White Feather Mountain, would that not be slapping Ancestor Bai Lu in the face?
Hearing Mo Fan say this, Ancestor Bai Lu merely smiled. Then, with a look of surprise, he gazed at Mo Fan and asked, “Brat, instead of properly being your demon king on Black Wind Mountain, why did you think to come and kick this old man’s mountain gate?”
“Ancestor Bai Lu, listen to how you put it. This junior has come specially to visit you. How would I dare kick your mountain gate?”
Mo Fan chuckled. Then he said, “It is just that I have not seen Ancestor for so long, so I missed you greatly.”
“Enough, you brat never rises early without profit. Do you truly think this ancestor cannot see that you have something to ask of me?”
Ancestor Bai Lu rolled his eyes. Then he scolded the surrounding demon kings, “Why are you not hurrying back to cultivate properly for me?”
“We nearly had our mountain gate overturned by a junior from the younger generation. If not for this old man’s face still holding some value, I fear it would similarly be completely lost by you lot.”
“We obey Ancestor’s decree.”
The demon kings smiled bitterly. They could only glance helplessly at Mo Fan before departing one after another.
In the end, only Mo Fan, Bai Feng, and Bai Lu remained on the entire severed cliff.
“Demon King Lai Bao, what exactly is the purpose of your visit this time?”
Seeing the demon kings leave, Bai Feng immediately looked at Mo Fan with curiosity.
“Uh… there is indeed something I wish to seek assistance with from Ancestor Bai Lu this time.”
Mo Fan smiled helplessly and looked at Ancestor Bai Lu. The latter suddenly slapped his forehead and said, “Aiya, this ancestor suddenly remembers that today I have an appointment with that old eagle from Golden Domain Mountain. I cannot stay longer.”
“Feng’er, entertain Demon King Lai Bao well on this ancestor’s behalf. Bring out all those treasured fine wines and delicacies. Do not let this brat think our White Feather Mountain is stingy.”
“Ah?”
Bai Feng was stunned upon hearing this. Then she gave Mo Fan a wry smile.
She naturally understood that the ancestor’s appointment was false. Instead, he wanted to deliberately make things difficult for Mo Fan.
Mo Fan also understood clearly in his heart. He immediately spoke, “Ancestor, this time this junior has brought you enormous benefits.”
“Are you sure you do not want them?”
Benefits?
Bai Lu’s eyes shifted. He looked at Mo Fan and asked, “You brat just mentioned seeking assistance with something? Speak it first. This ancestor will listen and see if I can help you.”
Seeing her own ancestor immediately change his attitude upon hearing of benefits, even Bai Feng could not help rolling her eyes. At the same time, she grumbled inwardly.
“Actually, what I want Ancestor to do is very simple. Just come with me to demand a person.”
Mo Fan smiled as he spoke. He was not afraid of Bai Lu being mercenary. He only feared that after pitting this old fellow last time, he would become completely impervious, which would be troublesome.
“Demand a person?”
Bai Lu frowned. Then he asked, “Demand from where? And demand whom?”
“White Sacred Mountain, Princess Qing Lian.”
As soon as Mo Fan said this, Bai Lu’s eyes widened. He hurriedly shook his head, “No, no.”
“Those stinking tigers on White Sacred Mountain have no good temper. If I go, we might end up fighting. It is not worth it.”
Mo Fan smiled bitterly. He had long known Bai Lu would back down. Thus, he quickly said, “Ancestor Bai Lu, this time you do not need to act. You only need to accompany me, to bolster this junior’s courage.”
“You brat plan to borrow my prestige?”
Bai Lu raised a brow and looked at Mo Fan. Seeing him nod, he hurriedly shook his head again, “That will not do either. Although I need not act, I would still be taking great risk for you. Once you fall out with those tigers, this old man would likely be implicated as well.”
“Ancestor, I will not have you help for nothing. As long as you agree, I will divine a reading for you.”
Mo Fan winked at Bai Lu.
“Divine a reading?”
“Since when did you brat have such ability?”
Bai Lu was amused upon hearing this. However, seeing that Mo Fan did not seem to be lying, he became interested, “Then tell this old man what you can divine.”
“I can calculate fortune and misfortune, as well as opportunities and future prospects.”
Mo Fan smiled slightly.
Seeing him so composed, not to mention Bai Lu, even Bai Feng beside them listened in stunned surprise.
“You brat are serious?” Bai Lu looked at Mo Fan with some astonishment.
“Senior, when have you seen me not serious?”
“You are serious, but this old man has been pitted by you brat plenty of times.”
Bai Lu snorted coldly. Then he sneered, “Since you have such ability, why not divine for this old man? If it truly proves effective, this old man can consider helping you once.”
“Good, this is what Ancestor said.”
Seeing Bai Lu relent, Mo Fan was immediately delighted inwardly.
“Demon King Lai Bao, do you truly understand the art of deducing heavenly secrets?” Bai Feng looked at Mo Fan in surprise.
“I do not understand it, but someone under my command does.”
Mo Fan smiled mysteriously. Then, opening his mouth, he released You Er.
“Great King, have we already reached the summit?”
When You Er clearly saw the three demons before him, he hurriedly came to Mo Fan’s side, looking warily at Ancestor Bai Lu and Bai Feng.
“You brat are playing this old man?”
“Just this Foundation Establishment human cultivator, and he can peer into heavenly secrets, understanding divination of fortune and misfortune?”
Seeing that the one Mo Fan summoned was a Foundation Establishment human cultivator, Ancestor Bai Lu immediately furrowed his brows.
Clearly, he did not believe that a mere Foundation Establishment cultivator could understand any divination arts. After all, divination and deduction counted as peering into heavenly secrets.
Could a Foundation Establishment cultivator peer into something like heavenly secrets?
“Ancestor may not know, but this subordinate of mine was born into a divine calculation family in the Divine Domain from a young age. Moreover, he has been hailed as the ‘Divine Calculator’ since childhood, deeply proficient in the art of divination.
If Ancestor does not believe it, you may set a question to test its authenticity.”
Mo Fan smiled as he spoke. However, his words left even You Er stunned.
Since when had he become the Divine Calculator?
How did he himself not know?
You Er grumbled inwardly, though he quite enjoyed it. He felt that the title “Divine Calculator” seemed rather fitting for him.
“Although this Toad Great King is not much as a demon, his judgement is quite good.”
After listening to the conversation between Mo Fan and Ancestor Bai Lu, You Er roughly understood why the Toad Great King had brought him here.
