Purple Scale Demon King, who ate most of the bowl of fried rice, cried for an entire day. Especially when night fell and he thought about dying before accomplishing his mission, it truly made this hero’s tears flow.
However.
If given another chance, he would still choose to eat that bowl of fried rice, because eating it made him cry, but not eating it would make him regret it!
During Purple Scale Demon King’s time at Wangu Sect, his strength had been gradually recovering, but his stomach had also been completely tied down by the delicious food.
Now even if you chased him away, you couldn’t chase him away.
One day.
Jun Changxiao sat beside Purple Scale Demon King, propping his cheek with a smile: “Delicious?”
“Delicious!”
“If it’s delicious, eat more.”
Purple Scale Demon King smacked his lips as he finished the food, then drank a large bowl of soup: “More…”
Wait a minute!
This guy’s gaze and smile are very strange!
Purple Scale Demon King became alert: “If you have something to say, say it directly!”
“Zilin.”
Jun Changxiao stood up, patting his shoulder: “You’ve been in the sect for quite some time. Although you open the gate every day, your contribution is still a bit lacking. You need to work harder in the future.”
“How do I work harder?” Purple Scale Demon King said.
Jun Changxiao sat down, his finger rhythmically tapping the dining table: “Summon all your subordinates, then arrange them in Tiegu Mountain. This seat will provide food and lodging.”
Purple Scale Demon King’s expression turned ugly.
The thing he’d been most worried about had inevitably occurred!
Jun Changxiao said seriously: “Many martial artists make their living hunting fierce beasts. Arranging your kind in Tiegu Mountain can at least ensure they can grow carefree in the future.”
This Beast King definitely needed to be put to good use, then equip the sect with even stronger fierce beasts, thereby developing halls like Tiger Cavalry Hall and Leopard Cavalry Hall.
Powerful spirit beasts could also be used as strong fighters.
Even.
In Jun Changxiao’s bold vision.
If one day he really invaded the Soul Clan world, he could also form a fierce beast army!
Purple Scale Demon King’s expression became increasingly ferocious. Clearly, his heart was engaged in an intense ideological struggle.
He himself had been forced to become a Wangu Sect disciple. Did he also have to make his subjects come and endure this humiliation together!
“Smack.”
Jun Changxiao placed a beginner-level Beast Pill on the table: “This is a pill used to satisfy hunger. You can try it first.”
“Satisfy hunger?”
Looking at that pill, doubt arose in Purple Scale Demon King’s gaze.
Using something not even worth calling a sugar bean to satisfy hunger—was this insulting the Beast Clan’s stomachs?
“Swish!”
He reached out to take it, then opened his mouth and swallowed it.
“Swish!”
Purple Scale Demon King shot up from his seat, his eyes filling with disbelief!
Although he had just eaten, he was only half full.
But when the pill’s effect dissipated in his body, he immediately no longer felt hungry—he was actually full!
Was what he ate a pill or dozens of pounds of meat!
The shock in Purple Scale Demon King’s eyes grew increasingly intense. After all, pills that could instantly fill one’s stomach—even in the upper realm, he’d never heard of such things!
“What you ate is a Beast Pill.”
Jun Changxiao said: “One pill, ten days without eating.”
“Ten days?”
Purple Scale Demon King’s eyes widened.
Ten days wasn’t long, but for a fierce beast, the calories needed were enormous. If they had this kind of pill, they could focus entirely on absorbing heaven and earth spiritual energy without needing to frequently feed!
Although fierce beasts in Xingyun Continent didn’t need to cultivate various cultivation methods, absorbing heaven and earth attributes to make themselves stronger was still fundamental.
“This seat has many Beast Pills.”
Jun Changxiao said: “Enough to let your people peacefully survive in Tiegu Mountain.”
Purple Scale Demon King fell silent.
To be precise, it had already been moved.
Beast species could absorb heaven and earth attributes without restraint to advance, but their food requirements would be massive, which was often an important factor hindering their growth.
If they had a Beast Pill worth ten days, using all their time to absorb attributes, their strength would definitely advance significantly!
“Have you decided?” Jun Changxiao said.
After a difficult choice, Purple Scale Demon King said: “I’ll summon them over!”
He compromised.
Just because of the Beast Pills, just because martial artists made their living hunting fierce beasts.
If he could gather his kind together with someone providing food and lodging, it wasn’t necessarily a bad thing.
Jun Changxiao said: “It’s best to have them come secretly in batches when night is dark.”
Previously, the beast horde had attacked Wangu Sect, making the entire world aware. He didn’t want another scene like that.
Of course.
Purple Scale Demon King was also conflicted internally.
Summoning his subordinates over—would they have objections?
Although as King, he could make them listen unconditionally, he should at least lead them with virtue.
“Never mind.”
Purple Scale Demon King said: “I’ll contact them first.”
“Whoosh whoosh!”
As he spoke, a stream of baleful energy emanated from his entire body, then transformed into flowing light, instantly flying toward Death Valley.
…
“Elder Niu.”
In the valley, a semi-humanoid spirit beast frowned: “King has been trapped in Wangu Sect for a long time. When are we launching a second rescue!”
“Don’t rush, don’t rush!”
Purple Scale Demon King’s right-hand man said: “Wait for King’s instructions before making plans!”
“Fine.”
The semi-humanoid spirit beast and other spirit beasts could only wait anxiously.
At this time, the number of fierce beasts in Death Valley had reached over five hundred thousand of various levels and species, already forming a considerable scale.
Because they had been lying low the whole time without major actions.
So the relevant departments of Central Sovereign Province hadn’t realized that so many fierce beasts were illegally gathering in southwestern Yang Province.
Of course.
If this many fierce beasts attacked Wangu Sect again to rescue their King, they would definitely… still be going to their deaths.
“Whoosh—”
Just then, a flowing light flew over, instantly merging into Elder Niu’s consciousness sea, making him say joyfully: “King sent a message, telling us to go in batches, sneakily heading to Tiegu Mountain.”
“It seems King has recovered his strength and plans to have us coordinate from inside and outside to breach Wangu Sect in one strike!”
“Let’s go, let’s go!”
Elder Niu said: “We need to hurry over.”
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Dozens of spirit beasts comparable to Imperial-level flew out of Death Valley.
When they arrived at the foot of Tiegu Mountain, they immediately saw the purple-haired man wearing red underwear standing on the Life-Death Arena.
“King!”
Elder Niu and the others excitedly called out in low voices.
Purple Scale Demon King said: “Follow me into the mountain.”
“Yes!”
Dozens of spirit beasts flew over one after another, then landed deep in Tiegu Mountain.
Elder Niu urgently said: “King, what’s the plan?”
Purple Scale Demon King looked around: “How’s the environment here?”
“Not bad.”
Elder Niu said: “Should be a place of spiritual energy recovery.”
An isolation formation was set up in the mountain, but Jun Changxiao had already opened it in advance to let them enter.
“Since it’s not bad.”
Purple Scale Demon King said: “Then live here.”
“Yes!”
Elder Niu and the other beasts responded in unison.
But the next second, they were stunned: “Live… live here?”
Purple Scale Demon King said: “This King has already negotiated with Wangu Sect’s master. We’ll temporarily pretend to be disciples of his sect, then wait for the right opportunity to work together on a great enterprise!”
“This…”
All the beasts were immediately dumbfounded.
At that moment, although King had his back to them, he gave them a very unfamiliar feeling!
“King…”
Elder Niu said with tears in his eyes: “You… seem to have changed…”
“This is human territory. How can we live here and collude with them!”
“King! Are you joking!”
Several spirit beasts spoke, unable to control their emotions, and started crying.
King was their faith, their spiritual pillar of never becoming slaves. Yet now he was asking them to live in human territory and work with them. This was simply—
…
“How are the Beast Pills?”
“My heavens, they’re simply too amazing!”
“King, we support you in using humans to complete your great enterprise!”
“I’ll notify our kind right now and have them enter Tiegu Mountain as soon as possible over the next few days!”
