Chapter 32: Mad Demon King (2/2)

Taking advantage of the light, there was a need to love more…

Grandfather had already passed away, leaving only an older brother…

Xuan’er turned to look at Ning Wuxie, silently making a decision in her heart…

Three days later, deep within the Li Mountain.

Strange phenomena gradually emerged; the deeper one went into the Li Mountain, the redder the sky became, as if stained with fresh blood, and even the air grew increasingly hot.

Meng Cangran did not encounter any other cultivators alone; occasionally, when sensing others with divine consciousness, they quickly avoided him.

Everyone’s target was the divine beast Bai Ze, and they did not want to waste battle power prematurely.

After looking up at the legendary Bai Ze’s embryo in the sky, Meng Cangran decided to stop advancing.

In this area, moving forward would lead to the territory guarded by the Lanyuan great demon and the old demon king!

The sight of the Bai Ze embryo shocked everyone in the team; even the knowledgeable Meng Cangran and the aloof Dantai Ying were momentarily speechless!

In the center of the peaks that gathered like fingers, a massive blood-red cocoon, as large as the sun, hung in the air, with a cord as thick as a mountain extending from it, attaching to the mountaintop, serving both as support and connection.

Deep red stained the sky above the Bai Ze embryo, creating a grand and eerie scene!

“This is… the divine beast Bai Ze…” Meng Cangran murmured.

“Brother Meng, this aura is too terrifying; I feel we cannot handle it!” Chang Han said nervously.

“It’s fine; before Bai Ze is born, no one knows what will happen.”

Meng Cangran stated confidently.

“Although Bai Ze was created from the old demon king’s demon race bloodline, it has no memories and will not instinctively regard the old demon king as its own.”

“Otherwise, it would not have crossed thousands of miles from Lanyuan to here, and the old demon king would not have sent such a large force to guard it.”

“It is clear that he fears being robbed; since he fears, it indicates that there is an opportunity for them!”

Upon hearing this, everyone nodded and continued to wait patiently.

Suddenly, a deafening roar erupted from the peak beneath the Bai Ze embryo, like a whirlwind sweeping through the entire forest!

“Get out of my way!” This was an ancient yet powerful shout that caused all cultivators outside the mountain to feel their blood surge.

“Greedy and shameless humans, how dare you covet my beloved son! Anyone who dares to step into the peak valley will be ground to dust!”

All cultivators understood; this was the ruler of Lanyuan, the demon king, Mo Xiang!

His original form was said to be a jet-black dragon, with a lifespan of over two thousand years.

After the other four great dynasties had passed down for ten thousand years, he had only just become the seventh ruler of Lanyuan.

A long lifespan brought unimaginable cultivation!

“Those old fools from the three families, hurry up and drive these pests away!”

Mo Xiang spoke again, his voice booming like thunder.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, another equally ancient and powerful voice rang out from the other side: “Mo Xiang, do not go too far!”

“Although Bai Ze is your son, this is not your Lanyuan, and we are not your bodyguards!”

“The crowd outside the valley consists of loose cultivators, and not all of them are Human Sect cultivators. We have no right to restrain you; it is already our utmost duty to block the forces of other dynasties and immortal sects!”

This voice clearly came from a powerful figure within the Human Sect, Confucian Sect, or Hermit Valley, sounding somewhat displeased.

Mo Xiang’s words were indeed somewhat unreasonable.

On the path of cultivation, killing and seizing treasures was the norm; everyone desired great opportunities.

It was not just the arrival of the Bai Ze embryo in the Li Mountain; even if it were born in his Lanyuan palace, there would likely be people fighting for it.

How could one expect all cultivators to stand by and watch?

Yet, Mo Xiang in the valley showed no signs of gratitude.

An even angrier and more turbulent dragon roar came from the valley at the center of the peak, sounding chilling!

The demon king’s furious roar was not just for show!

“Since that is the case, do not blame me for being ruthless! My beloved son, none of you shall lay a finger on him!”

After this declaration, the entire forest fell silent for a few seconds.

Then, a dull rumbling sound began.

It sounded like a stampede of thousands of horses charging from the direction of the peak valley with unstoppable force!

Everyone was stunned for a moment, still unaware of what was happening, except for Meng Cangran and Ning Wuxie, whose expressions suddenly turned extremely fearful!

“It’s a beast tide! Mo Xiang has unleashed the beast tide; run!!”

As soon as Meng Cangran shouted this, he saw Ning Wuxie already pulling Jiang Ningxuan’s hand, turning and running a few meters away.
