It must be said that Heiyi’s words had a great impact on the group of great demon cultivators.
Even Mo Fan was rendered speechless. He had originally thought that Heiyi had been bullied by the demons of Baisheng Mountain.
But now it seemed entirely different from what he had imagined.
At this thought, he could only shake his head and say helplessly, “You went to deliver a letter, yet how did you end up wiping out their Demon Kings?”
“How is this king supposed to negotiate now?”
“Uh… I did not think that far. At the time, they all wanted to kill me, so I had no choice but to act. I just did not expect the Demon Kings of Baisheng Mountain to be so useless. In a moment of excitement, I could not hold back and killed them all…”
Heiyi spoke with an innocent expression, slightly lowering her head and glancing at Mo Fan’s face from the corner of her eye, afraid that he would be angry about it.
“Killed them, then killed them!”
“It is not your fault. It is only because they lacked skill!”
Seeing Heiyi like this, Mo Fan could not help but smile and shake his head. Then he asked, “By the way, how many did you kill in total?”
“Not many, just six.”
“…”
This time, not only Mo Fan, but even Old Ancestor Bailu and the other big shots were once again speechless.
Six Demon Kings!
You killed them just like that, without even leaving their corpses behind, planning to take them back for a feast…
At this thought, the demons could not help but look at each other. Old Ancestor Bailu smiled and said, “Young treasure Mo, I did not expect that besides you, the demons of your Heifeng Mountain also have such a fierce one!”
“But I am afraid that going to Baisheng Mountain to demand the person now will not be so smooth.”
As soon as these words came out, all the demons frowned slightly.
Mo Fan then asked Heiyi, “Since you delivered this king’s letter, did the great demons of Baisheng Mountain not say anything? Did they just focus on sending Demon Kings to chase and kill you?”
Hearing Mo Fan’s words, Heiyi slapped her forehead and smiled bitterly. “There is indeed something. If you had not mentioned it, Great King, I almost forgot.”
“What is it?” Mo Fan looked at her.
“When I went to Baisheng Mountain to deliver the letter, an old demon at the peak of the King realm came forward. He told me that Princess Qinglian was suppressed by a Demon Ancestor named ‘Heiming’ because she murdered the quasi-Holy Son of Baisheng Mountain.
At the same time, he asked me to pass on a message to you: in half a year, Baisheng Mountain will hold a Holy Son selection, where they will compete to choose the true Holy Son. Moreover, that Demon Ancestor Heiming will betroth Princess Qinglian to the Holy Son.
He said that since you, Great King, are the inheritor of the White Tiger Holy King, you should go to Baisheng Mountain to observe the Holy Son selection ceremony.” Heiyi said gravely.
“What a Baisheng Mountain!”
Mo Fan snorted coldly upon hearing this. It was clear they had no intention of releasing the person.
“Do you know who that old demon was?” At this moment, Bailu flashed his eyes and asked.
“I do not know. I only know that his attire was very strange: he wore a black robe, had a ponytail, and was quite slender.”
Heiyi shook her head while recalling and describing the old demon’s appearance.
“At first, I thought he was intentionally humiliating me, but later I felt that was not the case. Instead, he deliberately told me this information, or rather, wanted to pass it to you, Great King, through me.
Because after reading your letter, Great King, he showed no anger at all and even reminded me to leave Baisheng Mountain quickly.”
Heiyi shared her suspicions.
“If that is the case, then there is no mistake. Your guess is very accurate!”
Bailu smiled slightly upon hearing this and said, “If this old man has not guessed wrong, that old demon should be the guardian of Baisheng Mountain, Moro!”
“Yes, that possibility is indeed high!”
Zhanao beside him also nodded.
“Two seniors, what kind of existence is this Moro? Do you know him well?”
Mo Fan looked at the two demons, his face full of curiosity.
“Moro was a confidant of the White Tiger Holy King. He was once quite glorious, known as the foremost great demon under the White Tiger Holy King!
But after entering that place later, he fell in realm. I am afraid he has no hope of stepping into the Ancestor realm again in this life. It is truly a pity!
If that old fellow Moro had not fallen in realm, this ancestor might have wanted to have a good fight with him this time!”
Zhanao spoke with some regret, seeming to admire that Moro greatly.
“This demon is that powerful?”
Mo Fan was surprised, and Heiyi beside him also showed a shocked expression.
“I have also heard of Moro’s great name. Five hundred years ago, when I was still a small fish demon in the Heishui River, that senior was already a powerhouse renowned throughout the Hundred Thousand Mountains!”
The Old Heishui Ghost spoke gravely. However, these words shocked Mo Fan even more. After some analysis in his mind, he said, “If that is the case, there is indeed a certain probability that this Senior Moro deliberately revealed this information.
“Since he was once a confidant of Senior White Tiger Holy King, he must be loyal to Princess Qinglian, at least wanting to find ways to protect her.
“But now he has told me such important information, which shows that the so-called Demon Ancestor Heiming is an existence even he cannot deal with. It also proves one thing: the current Baisheng Mountain is not monolithic, but has cracks!
“Perhaps this is also my opportunity!”
“I did not expect you, lad, to analyse it so thoroughly.”
Old Ancestor Bailu smiled appreciatively and said, “In fact, it is not just Baisheng Mountain. Every demon domain is like this!”
“The reason the nine great demon domains of the Hundred Thousand Mountains can remain calm without ripples is precisely because of the nine great Demon Holy Kings presiding over them. If the Demon Holy Kings disappeared, the great demons below would surely fall into chaos!
“The so-called rules are merely shackles that the Demon Holy Kings place on the great demons. Once these shackles disappear, naturally there would be no so-called rules.
“Without rules, even the so-called holy land of the demon clan would disintegrate overnight.
“It is already quite impressive that Baisheng Mountain has held on until now!
“As for that Heiming, this old man has seen him before. He is a very powerful Demon Ancestor.
“Back when Baisheng Mountain was still Heihu Ridge, it was Heiming who ruled the entire Heihu Ridge, only to be later subdued by the White Tiger Holy King.
“Now that the White Tiger Holy King has gone missing, it is normal for him to jump out and cause trouble.
“However, from the fact that he only suppressed the little girl Qinglian, it is clear that Heiming still has some guilt in his heart. He worries that the White Tiger Holy King might reappear in the world, so he dares not directly erase the little girl Qinglian. Instead, he uses the name of marriage to bind her. This scheme is quite disgusting.”
Bailu spoke eloquently. As a Demon Ancestor, he naturally had some understanding of the Demon Ancestors in the various holy lands.
“That old thing Heiming is still not dead?”
Beside him, Zhanao brightened his eyes upon hearing this, then sneered, “That old fellow tried to kill this ancestor plenty of times back then. This time, this ancestor wants to see just how capable he still is!”
However, as soon as he said this, it left the group of demons both amused and exasperated.
“Brother Zhanao, we came this time only to support young treasure Mo and put on a show. There is no need to really fight. Battles between Demon Ancestors are inherently dangerous. If it damages our origin, it would not be worth it!”
Bailu frowned slightly and spoke faintly.
“Do not compare this ancestor to an old fellow like you! Could the demons of Baisheng Mountain damage this ancestor’s origin?”
“It is rare for this ancestor to come out once. Naturally, I want to fight to my heart’s content!”
Zhanao snorted coldly, his words revealing strong confidence.
“This is their territory…”
Bailu immediately pursed his lips.
“So what?”
“That is precisely why fighting would be exhilarating!”
