Ask for the Mountain Lord’s Consent First (Please Follow and Vote with Monthly Tickets) “I, Bai Wanshan, a disciple under the Twelve Divine Envoys of the Feixian Sect, pay my respects to Mountain Lord!” Hook Nose fell to one knee with a thud, clasped his fists, lowered his head in submission, his voice filled with deference. His mind worked quickly; knowing he couldn’t escape, it was better to submit. This is to win people over with courtesy. Frequently dealing with demons, though they had long cultivated and attained intelligence, their tempers were fickle, retaining some beastly instincts. The faster you run, the more they want to kill you; play dead and they lose interest. He took the gamble. His heart wildly thumped in his chest, head bowed, and even his breathing seemed to lighten. At this moment, a voice as deep as thunder resounded, causing his ears to buzz. “You sure are sensible!” “Feixian Sect, Twelve Divine Envoys, what kind of trifles are those? Are they even worth sticking in this Mountain Lord’s teeth?” The voice carried disdain, along with a deep growl. And seeing that the Mountain Lord did not kill him. Hook Nose’s eyes sparkled. It seemed his quick wits had saved his life once again. Thinking of the rat-faced man from earlier, he thought to himself how deserving, not even knowing how to beg for mercy. To claim kinship with this Mountain Lord, he really didn’t know his own place. Next, it was time for his own performance. He immediately lifted his head, his originally sinister face now forced into a full smile despite the pressure from the enormous tiger form, “Mountain Lord speaks truly, if this lowly one has caused any offense, please let it pass as nothing.” Speaking, his face stiffly smiled, cautiously watching those captivatingly fierce tiger eyes. Those cold and eerie tiger eyes suddenly came close, like two large lamps, startling Hook Nose so much he shivered and lost his rigid smile, falling backward in terror, sitting down hard on the ground. Then, the wheel-sized tiger head bared its sharp pointy teeth, a mocking human expression formed: “Offense? This Mountain Lord kills whoever he pleases.” “Seeking death on my territory, that’s just your bad luck.” Feeling impending doom, Hook Nose blurted out in fear, “Isn’t Mountain Lord afraid of alarming the Mountain Patrol Military Officer of this area?” Chen Yuan, transformed into the Mountain Lord, caught a gleam of craftiness in his eyes, gritted his teeth, and roared with hatred: “Mountain Patrol Military Officer—I’ve come here just to find him. He killed my brother, and tonight I’ve come for revenge!” “Today, I’ve caught the two of you misfortunates to make a statement.” As he spoke, he was about to open his blood-drenched jaw wide. Hearing this, Hook Nose’s eyes shifted from fear to an unprecedented brightness. Suddenly invigorated as if injected with adrenaline, he urgently called out: “Wait, Mountain Lord, we are also seeking that wretch—the Mountain Patrol Military Officer has destroyed one of our sub-forums, and my Lord Wei Yang has ordered us to track his whereabouts. When the Mountain Lord arrived, we were investigating the Qingshan County Magistrate, but this man is tough to crack.” “It turns out you also have a grudge against him, which is great. Once my Lord Wei Yang brings reinforcements from Jingshan, we can eradicate both Yunlu and Qingshan Counties. At that time, Mountain Lord can join us, like adding wings to a tiger. After taking over both counties, tens of thousands of blood meals of the city will be at your disposal. What do you think?” As he spoke, he got up and knelt earnestly in front of the tiger head. “Your master is going to Jingshan to gather forces to attack the two counties?” Chen Yuan gathered this important piece of information, his eyes darkening, yet his voice showing significant interest. “Yes, yes, the Ghost Cry Forest in Jingshan, four hundred miles south of Yunlu County, houses a strong Bull Demon, a good friend of Lord Wei Yang. At that time, by gathering the Demon Crowd, the two counties can be overthrown.” Hook Nose nodded repeatedly. But the next second, a roar blasted him away. He fell from the rooftop directly into the County Government, crashing against a courtyard wall. The impact caused the wall to collapse thunderously. Hook Nose desperately clutched his chest, miserably coughing up blood. He looked in horror at the enormous tiger form approaching. Then a tiger paw seized him. With eyes like gloomy lanterns glaring at him in anger: “This is the land of this Mountain Lord, and you dare not invite me, but seek another elsewhere, a bull? Go tell your master if you want to attack these two counties, ask first if this Mountain Lord agrees.” With that, the tiger’s paw clenched, cracking his bones with a crunch and a scream. Then, thrown violently away. With a “swoosh,” Hook Nose was thrown out directly. At this moment, he felt like his entire body might shatter, tracing an arc in mid-air, about to smash into the ground and turn into a pile of mush. Biting his teeth, he desperately stimulated the Demon Seed within him, scales piercing through his skin. With a “boom,” he landed. Creating a crater upon impact. Afterward, dusty and disheveled, he crawled out and fled desperately towards the outskirts of the city. Don’t dare to look back again! This time, I completely botched it. Not only did I fail to locate the Mountain Patrol Military Officer here, but I also angered a Mountain Lord as powerful as Lord Wei Yang. The only consolation is that I narrowly escaped with my life. My quick wit was still useful. Certainly better than my companions who lost their lives. Elsewhere, Chen Yuan’s tiger-like eyes watched the man leave, a glint of murderous intent flickering within them. He let the man go to deliver a message to the so-called Weiyang Divine Envoy of the Feixian Sect. To later reclaim both principal and interest. Thinking this, he retracted his gaze, and one of his tiger paws opened up and touched the ground. “Cough cough” Zhang Cheng, the Qingshan County Magistrate, holding his chest, kept coughing. Struggling to his feet from the ground, he faced this enormous creature, yet he stood up straight with great effort. After catching his breath, “Don’t expect me to tell you where my lord is? I don’t know.” “And I wouldn’t tell you even if I did!” At that moment, a light laugh was heard, “Not bad!” With that, the Giant striped tiger transformed in a flash into a man dressed in Green clothes. With eyebrows like swords extending into his temples, and eyes bright as stars. Qingshan County Magistrate Zhang Cheng, facing the man before him, was filled with doubt and uncertainty. “You.. who are you?” Something flew out of Chen Yuan’s sleeve, which he then caught. It was the Banshan Tiger Talisman! “Mountain Patrol Military Officer, Chen Yuan!” Upon seeing this Token, County Magistrate Zhang Cheng’s expression became stupefied, then he quickly took the hem of his garment in both hands, “County Magistrate Zhang Cheng pays his respects to Military Officer Captain.” “Sir, I’ve been waiting for you for a long time.” Saying so, he revealed a bitter smile. Chen Yuan stepped forward to help him up, patted his shoulder, and passed some True Qi to aid in his healing. “I was not previously at liberty to reveal myself.” “Fortunately, this time I managed to arrive just in the nick of time.” Chen Yuan had never shown his face to this parent-official of Qingshan County before. His predecessor had been conscripted not long ago, and they had acted in secrecy, never having met this parent-official. Later, when he transmigrated, his cultivation was weak, he became more cautious in his actions, not wanting to reveal too much information. County Magistrate Zhang Cheng seemed to understand his intention but hesitantly asked a question: “The former County Magistrate Lord Li...” Chen Yuan nodded, “He died in the line of duty!” “The others, too, are dead.” “I’m the only one left here, acting in the shadows.” Hearing this, Zhang Cheng’s expression fluctuated between pale and emotionless, finally settling into a sigh, “As a scholar granted an official position by chance, without the methods of cultivation, I regret that I cannot be more helpful to you.” “Each has their duty, and by fulfilling one’s role and responsibilities, one contributes what one can. You have managed Qingshan County well; after all, I have been watching.” Chen Yuan spoke the truth—if this parent-official of Qingshan County had been one to exploit the people, turning the county into a place of corruption, he would have killed him long ago. Having said this, he turned to face the County Magistrate directly, speaking in a deep voice, “You just heard it yourself.” “The scum of the Feixian Sect wishes to conspire with demons to attack Yunlu and Qingshan counties; you must prepare early and manage internal affairs well.” “As for matters outside, leave them to me!” Saying this, Chen Yuan looked out towards the city’s edges, contemplating his plans. “Your subordinate obeys.” Zhang Cheng nodded, then performed a formal salute.
