The Displeased Duo of Demons

"How is this possible?!"

Old Turtle showed a surprised expression for the first time, the wrinkles on his face becoming a bit more pronounced.

He stared blankly at the Seven-Colored Sacred Lotus in Mo Tianxiao's hand, then looked at his own empty hand, his eyes filled with bewilderment.

What exactly happened?

He was a Saint Realm expert, yet he hadn't detected the slightest anomaly.

"What kind of method did you use?!"

Old Turtle loudly questioned Mo Tianxiao. Even the other demonic beasts nearby were utterly shocked by Mo Tianxiao's miraculous technique.

"How did you do that!? Teach me!"

Huang Xiaoyao wanted to rush forward to ask Mo Tianxiao, but the two burly men beside her hastily held her back.

"Miss, be careful!"

The two tower-like men didn't dare let Huang Xiaoyao approach; after all, her current cultivation was only at the Tongxuan Realm.

The other party's methods were incredibly bizarre. Even Senior Turtle hadn't noticed anything, so they were even more afraid to let Huang Xiaoyao get close.

Huang Xiaoyao's brother also looked at Mo Tianxiao with curiosity, developing a trace of interest in the technique he had just used.

Even as a Saint King expert, he hadn't noticed anything amiss, not even the slightest spatial fluctuation.

Facing the crowd's doubts, the caster, Mo Tianxiao, had a layer of sweat on his forehead. It wasn't due to pressure, however.

Rather, he hadn't expected this secret art to consume so much energy, instantly draining half of the spiritual energy in his body.

Was this the price of stealing something from a Saint Realm expert?

Although the consumption was massive, it confirmed one thing for him: the power of this secret art was truly overpowered. He could steal from a Saint Realm expert without fail. It was indeed worthy of being an immortal-grade technique.

Mo Tianxiao slowly pulled off his headpiece and chuckled, "Xiaoyao, it's not that I don't want to teach you, but this is something others simply cannot learn."

"Huh?!"

"Brother Tianxiao!?"

Although Mo Tianxiao wanted to continue teasing Huang Xiaoyao, he was afraid the two Saint Realm big shots wouldn't be able to hold back from attacking, so he decided to reveal his identity first.

As expected, there were no surprises. The moment he took off his headpiece, Huang Xiaoyao cried out in surprise and pulled off her own headpiece as well, revealing a petite and adorable face.

Breaking free from her left and right guards, Huang Xiaoyao lunged fiercely toward Mo Tianxiao.

Smack!

Like a rock crashing into him, she hung onto Mo Tianxiao's body. The powerful impact made him wince slightly.

Good heavens, no buffer at all?

Xiaoyao was really something. Even as a demonic beast hundreds of years old, she was still so hard.

"Brother Tianxiao! It's really you! You finally came to play with me!"

Hanging from Mo Tianxiao's neck, Huang Xiaoyao clung to him like a ragdoll. Her exquisite little face showed dissatisfaction, and with a slight pout, she said loudly:

"Brother Tianxiao, you have no idea. Little Tiger and Little Lion have no idea how to rob people at all. I taught them, but we still get recognized every time we try to rob someone!"

Ever since returning from the Void Emperor Mystic Realm, Huang Xiaoyao had been reminiscing about her experiences there. She decisively gathered Little Tiger and Little Lion to start a role-playing game in the Hundred Thousand Mountains.

Unfortunately, they were recognized every time they went out to rob, which meant she could never recreate the thrill of robbing people alongside Mo Tianxiao in the mystic realm.

It wasn't just the robbing, but also the experience of framing Xiao Fan together with Mo Tianxiao; it had been both thrilling and fun.

But after returning to the Hundred Thousand Mountains, no matter how much she studied or tried, she just couldn't capture that same sense of excitement from the mystic realm.

"Brother Tianxiao is still the best. You were standing right in front of me, and I didn't even recognize you."

Seeing Mo Tianxiao, Huang Xiaoyao was extremely excited. Chattering away, it was as if a chatterbox had been opened, and she couldn't stop talking.

Off to the side, Yun Sangyi's face had gone stiff. She couldn't find the words to describe her current mood.

She had originally thought that with this guy's methods, they might still have a chance to survive. Instead, he gave her an even bigger surprise.

This guy actually had acquaintances in the Hundred Thousand Mountains??

And looking at this little girl's status, surrounded by bodyguards and Saint Realm great demons, her background seemed rather terrifying.

Huang Xiaoyao's two followers, Little Tiger and Little Lion, were also quite astonished to see Mo Tianxiao's familiar face. After all that, it turned out to be this guy!

Of course, the ones who were even more surprised were Old Turtle and Huang Xiaoyao's brother.

Seeing Huang Xiaoyao acting so intimately with a little human bug, Old Turtle was both baffled and incredibly jealous. This little girl had never been so close to him. What right did this little human bug have??

No! He had to find an excuse to kill this little bug!

"It's you!"

When Huang Xiaoyao's brother saw Mo Tianxiao's face, the veins on his forehead immediately bulged, his eyes carrying extreme resentment and hatred.

It was this brat who had been a bad influence on Xiaoyao!

Huang Xiaoyao's brother, the Saint King Realm great demon whom Old Turtle called Little Bird Feng, was actually named Feng Jiu. He had been the leader of the Hundred Thousand Mountains team during the Void Emperor Mystic Realm expedition over a decade ago.

The way Huang Xiaoyao had bid farewell to Mo Tianxiao that time had made him deeply remember this human. To think that the other party would actually dare to come to the Hundred Thousand Mountains!

Ignoring Huang Xiaoyao's chattering, Mo Tianxiao squeezed out an awkward smile and looked at Feng Jiu, waving his hand as he said, "Senior, long time no see."

Although they had only met once, they had still crossed paths.

"Hmph," Feng Jiu snorted coldly, his expression somewhat hostile.

"Brat, the Demon Sect's reach doesn't extend into the Hundred Thousand Mountains. If you die here, no one will care."

This threatening tone did not make Mo Tianxiao change his expression, but it made Yun Sangyi, who was standing beside him, feel as though she had plunged into an ice cave. She shivered, thinking to herself that this was bad.

This Saint Realm great demon seemed to hold animosity toward this guy!

Could there be another plot twist?

"Hmph! Feng Jiu, if you dare to do anything bad to Brother Tianxiao, I'll tell Father that you bullied me! I'll also say that you yelled at Grandpa Turtle!"

Hearing Feng Jiu's words, Huang Xiaoyao immediately jumped down from Mo Tianxiao. Putting her hands on her hips, she stood in front of him and threatened her own older brother in return.

Seeing his own sister actually helping an outsider, and a human at that! An intense, nameless anger immediately welled up within Feng Jiu.

Fortunately, Old Turtle chose to stand by his side this time and speak up for him.

"Xiaoyao, let your brother handle this matter. No matter what, you cannot get too close to humans.

Humans are a bunch of profit-seeking creatures. No matter how good your relationship seems on the surface, they might just stab you in the back the next second."

Old Turtle's words did not change Huang Xiaoyao's mind. She continued to block Mo Tianxiao and said loudly, "Brother Tianxiao is different from other humans! Little Tiger, Little Lion, isn't that right?"

"Hiss..."

The questioned Little Tiger and Little Lion immediately turned their heads to the side, pretending they hadn't heard Huang Xiaoyao's words.

Normally, they might have stood on Huang Xiaoyao's side, but with two big shots present, they didn't dare to casually express their stance.

Even though their own statuses weren't low, juniors were still juniors. They wouldn't dare interrupt the decisions of the big shots.

"Traitors!"

Huang Xiaoyao looked at her two followers, furrowed her brows, and fiercely scolded them.

"Phew... Although this guy really doesn't look like a bad person, Miss, you should listen to the two seniors on this matter. They have seen far more humans than we have."

Little Tiger and Little Lion couldn't bear Huang Xiaoyao's wrath either, so they hurriedly chimed in with an awkward remark to show they didn't want to offend either side.

Alright, Xiaoyao, let me handle this. The two seniors are surely just joking with me.

Mo Tianxiao rubbed Huang Xiaoyao's head, an amiable smile gracing his face.

He hadn't expected Huang Xiaoyao to be so fiercely loyal! This little girl wasn't bad at all!
