“I’m not actually a demon from these Hundred Thousand Mountains, but from Three Saints Island.
I was originally an obscure little demon on Three Saints Island, cultivating in White Saint Lake.
Until one day, a powerful demon hunter found me, injured me, and intended to kill me to take my gall.
Just when I thought I was doomed, a young man in white descended from the sky and saved me.
I remember he was very gentle and extremely handsome, almost the most perfect man I’d ever seen.
That day, he told me his surname was Su, and that he couldn’t stand demon hunters who killed innocent creatures under the guise of slaying demons, which is why he saved me.
After seeing I was unharmed, Young Master Su left.
From then on, I watched from the bottom of White Saint Lake every day, hoping to spot him among the crowds boating on the lake.
After a month of waiting, I finally saw Young Master Su again. This time, he was slightly drunk and was betrayed by his own spirit beast, injured by an enemy, and sank to the lake’s bottom.
That’s how I saved him.
Perhaps it was fate’s arrangement, but with both of us having saved each other’s lives, Young Master Su and I grew closer. Later, he often came to White Saint Lake to boat, saying it was for the lantern festival, but really to visit me.
Until one day, I heard from his retinue that his clan’s elders wanted him to bond with another demon as a spirit beast, but Young Master Su, still scarred from his spirit beast’s betrayal, was unwilling.
So I stepped forward, telling him I was willing to form a master-servant spirit beast contract with him, to become his spirit beast.
That way, I could protect him by his side at all times, a way to repay his kindness!
Thus, I became Young Master Su’s spirit beast. With his help, I broke through to the Demon Ding Realm, then to Demon General, and Demon King Realm!
Later, Young Master Su sent me on a task. When I returned, I heard of his death, and even the entire Su family had been wiped out.
In my rage, after much inquiry, I learned the enemy was a major clan on Three Saints Island, the Wang family!
From that moment, my anger awakened the latent power in my bloodline, unlocking the divine ability ‘Overturning Rivers and Seas’.
In my fury, my mind went blank, focused only on avenging Young Master Su. I unleashed the Overturning Rivers and Seas ability, causing White Saint Lake’s waters to flood, submerging the Wang family, drowning two cities, and killing over twenty-three thousand innocent people.
But at that moment, Young Master Su reappeared, along with the Wang family.
They gravely wounded me, claiming to uphold justice against demons.
That’s when I realised I’d been deceived. It was all a scheme by Young Master Su from the start, designed to enrage me and awaken the latent power in my bloodline.
Later, they captured me, and I saw through it all, but it was too late.
In the end, Young Master Su, whom I deeply loved, extracted a bone from my body, which they called a ‘Demon Saint Bone’, something only those with the original Demon Saint bloodline might activate.
Just as they were about to kill me, a Demon King appeared and rescued me from Three Saints Island.
It was a powerful Blue Sky Python Demon, who said he was an old friend of my mother. But to protect me, he was killed by the Su and Wang families, his blood staining the sea.
Before dying, the Blue Sky Python Demon senior directed me to the Hundred Thousand Mountains to seek shelter with a senior.
So I came to the Hundred Thousand Mountains, ending up in a fishing village in the Southern Border. Though I stabilised my injuries, losing the Demon Saint Bone caused my cultivation to plummet.
Disheartened, I settled in that small fishing village. After three years of cultivation, I regained my current level, but upon returning from an outing, I found the entire village slaughtered.
After inquiries, I learned it was the Su family from Three Saints Island. They still wouldn’t let me go, determined to capture me.
Later, after my identity was exposed by chance, I was hunted by Three Saints Island’s cultivators. Following the Blue Sky Python Demon senior’s dying guidance, I reached a ruined temple, met that senior, and made a deal with him.
And then, I met you!”
Bai Yaoyao finished, looking at Mo Fan with a heavy expression, “So, do you regret buying me now?”
“Why would I regret it?”
“They’re after you, not me. Worst case, I’ll just hand you over, right?”
Mo Fan winked at the beautiful demon before him, infuriating her.
“You…!”
“But I have a bad habit. The demons under my command are mine to deal with. No matter how powerful that damn Su family is, if they dare provoke me, I’ll make their entire clan restless!”
Mo Fan said with a playful smile, his words brimming with dominance, leaving Bai Yaoyao stunned. After a long pause, she lowered her head slightly and said gravely, “You might die doing this. Is it worth it?”
“Worth it or not doesn’t matter. Besides, you have so little faith in your master?” Mo Fan’s lips curled slightly.
The Su and Wang families might be powerful, but what did that have to do with him?
He was now the Dingmu of Black Wind Mountain. He’d simply settle Bai Yaoyao there, and he didn’t believe the damn Su family could reach into Black Wind Mountain.
This wasn’t Three Saints Island, but the forbidden zone of the human race, the Hundred Thousand Mountains!
Even if the Su family’s influence reached Black Wind Mountain, he could flee deeper into the Hundred Thousand Mountains. He’d like to see if the so-called Su family dared extend their reach there.
So Mo Fan had no worries for now. As for Bai Yaoyao’s concerns, he thought she was just scared stiff by the Su family.
In simple terms, the girl probably had persecution delusions.
Mo Fan’s words left Bai Yaoyao silent again. She realised she couldn’t quite read this “master” before her.
His cultivation seemed low, but he had an inexplicable dominance that eased her anxious heart somewhat.
“By the way, don’t call me master, it sounds awful. Call me lord, that’s what they all call me!”
“They?”
“You’ll see when we get to Black Wind Mountain. Though my cultivation isn’t high, I do have some authority.”
“Oh…”
“Can you tell me about this world?”
Looking at the white underbelly of the sky in the distance, Mo Fan suddenly asked.
“This world?”
Bai Yaoyao was slightly taken aback but quickly understood.
“The world we’re in is called the Nine Continents.
Besides the vast seas, the Nine Continents have four massive landmasses, home to demons, humans, and other races.
From what I know, these four landmasses are the Divine Realm in the east, the Western Desert in the west, the Hundred Thousand Mountains in the south, and Beichuan in the north.
Apart from these, there are many islands, one of which is Three Saints Island, located between the Hundred Thousand Mountains and the Divine Realm…”
