Mo Tianxiao wore a smile as his sharp gaze swept around, landing on the surrounding demonic beasts. His voice was calm as he asked, "Are there any other demonic beast brothers who want to spar?"
His voice echoed out, but the surroundings remained dead silent. The demonic beasts looked at each other, none of them making a move to accept the challenge.
Even Niu Dajiao had been defeated in a single move; if they went up, the result likely wouldn't be any better.
Among the younger generation, there were very few demonic beasts who could defeat Niu Dajiao in one strike.
"Hmph, now you know how formidable Brother Tianxiao is!"
Huang Xiaoyao stood with her hands on her hips, her head held high to reveal her fair, swan-like neck. She looked incredibly adorable.
The surrounding demonic beasts all looked embarrassed, glancing around awkwardly. They had originally intended to cause trouble for this human, only to realize that they were no match for him at all.
This was the headquarters of the demon race, yet a crowd of demonic beasts had been embarrassed by a single human. It was truly a blow to their pride.
Yun Sangyi watched Mo Tianxiao thoughtfully, her eyes growing increasingly curious. Was this guy really just an ordinary target?
His equipment, connections, combat power, and methods, none of these seemed like things an ordinary target could possess, right?
For a guy like this, the reward for the second mission was actually only fifty million spirit stones? How much of a cut did the organization take?
Fifty million was naturally more than enough to assassinate a peak Profound Comprehension cultivator, and it was also reasonable for a peak Void Refinement cultivator.
Normally, a reward of fifty million spirit stones was enough to hire someone to kill a Primordial Spirit cultivator.
But when it came to Mo Tianxiao, Yun Sangyi felt the reward was far too low. The more she learned about him, the more she felt the organization's payout was pitifully meager.
Just a single weapon on Mo Tianxiao's body was worth more than fifty million spirit stones.
Just as Yun Sangyi was still guessing whether Mo Tianxiao was the disciple of a certain elder from the Demonic Sect, a voice rang out from among the demonic beasts.
"Human, I will test your skills. Do you dare accept?"
Hearing this voice, the demonic beasts immediately looked delighted and cleared a path. A humanoid figure over two meters tall walked out, carrying a pitch-black profound iron longstaff on his shoulder. The ends of the staff were carved with profound patterns, giving off a heavy, oppressive feeling.
Mo Tianxiao fixed his gaze on the newcomer. It was a brawny man over two meters tall with thick hair all over his body. His arms were covered in long brown fur, ending in rough palms and sharp claws.
He had a sharply contoured face, and his upward-slanting eyebrows added a touch of domineering aura. A gaze brimming with battle intent shot forth from his eyes.
This was not a human, but a monkey demon.
"It's Big Brother Sun! Big Brother Sun has also come to join the fun?"
"Holy crap! Is Big Brother Sun going to personally teach this human a lesson?"
"Isn't it a bit like bullying for Big Brother Sun to make a move on this human?"
"Big Brother Sun isn't much older than us; he's also part of the younger generation. There's nothing really wrong with him issuing a challenge. Now it just depends on whether this human dares to accept."
Seeing this demon's figure, the surrounding demonic beasts immediately cheered in excitement, seemingly ready to watch a good show.
When Huang Xiaoyao saw this demon appear, her brows instantly knitted together as she scolded, "Sun Xiaosheng! Brother Tianxiao is only at the Void Refinement realm. You, with a Primordial Spirit cultivation base, are challenging a Void Refinement cultivator. Have you no shame?!"
Sun Xiaosheng, who was originally full of battle intent, looked somewhat embarrassed after being reprimanded by Huang Xiaoyao.
He could not help but grumble inwardly, "If your old man hadn't dragged me over here, I wouldn't have come at all."
Indeed, he was the enforcer found by Old Turtle and Huang Xiaoyao's father to teach Mo Tianxiao a lesson. He was a descendant of the Battle Holy Ape, and furthermore, the existence in the Battle Ape clan with the most hope of inheriting the ancestor's position to become the next Battle Holy Ape.
Sun Xiaosheng ignored Huang Xiaoyao and instead stared straight at Mo Tianxiao, a rebellious smile on his face. "Human, I am also considered part of the younger generation among the demonic beasts. Just tell me, do you dare accept my challenge?"
"It doesn't matter if you refuse. After all, my cultivation base is higher than yours. I won't look down on you if you decline. Moreover, my challenge has nothing to do with who you make friends with. I simply want to spar with you."
Mo Tianxiao's gaze swept over him, and he immediately figured out the demon's identity, feeling a surge of joy in his heart.
[Name: Sun Xiaosheng
Cultivation: Fifth Stage of Primordial Spirit
Luck Level: Red
Aptitude: Indomitable Will
Profile: A genius of the Battle Ape clan, the future Battle Holy Ape. His Indomitable Will can be called a simplified version of the Battle Holy Physique, allowing him to grow stronger as he fights.]
To think he was from the Battle Ape clan. As long as he didn't die prematurely, he would definitely become a Battle Holy Ape in the future.
Now Mo Tianxiao felt reassured. Regardless of whether the last Battle Holy Ape in the Hundred Thousand Mountains mentioned by his master was dead or alive, there was hope for Ye Chen's Battle Holy Physique to awaken.
"Since you've put it that way, I naturally won't spoil everyone's fun."
Mo Tianxiao's gaze toward Sun Xiaosheng grew somewhat fervent. "I assume a certain demon race elder sent you here, right?"
"Uh..."
"How could that be? Of, of course not. No one asked me to teach you a lesson. I wanted to challenge you myself."
Mo Tianxiao's sudden question made Sun Xiaosheng a little flustered. Being bad at lying, he replied with a lack of confidence.
The demonic beasts who knew Sun Xiaosheng naturally understood what was going on.
Mo Tianxiao rubbed his chin, nodding as he confirmed, "I see. It seems a demon race elder really did send you. Let me guess who it is... Could it be Senior Turtle who returned with us? Or Elder Feng Jiu? Or perhaps..."
"Stop, stop, stop! No one ordered me. You, don't even think about tricking me into talking!"
Sun Xiaosheng immediately interrupted Mo Tianxiao, his face turning bright red. One look was enough to tell he was terrible at lying.
The several demon race bigwigs hiding in the dark could only helplessly facepalm.
"Xiaosheng is great in every way, except he's just too honest."
"This guy really ought to go to the human world to temper himself properly."
Old Turtle and a middle-aged man beside him began discussing with smiles. The middle-aged man voiced out, "It's a pity, but Senior Sun probably can't bear to let this kid go to the human world."
"Why care about that stubborn old man? He's about to die anyway; it's not like he can control where Xiaosheng goes."
Old Turtle immediately spoke up in mockery, his tone completely devoid of any reverence for the so-called Senior Sun the middle-aged man mentioned.
Returning to the perspective of Sun Xiaosheng and Mo Tianxiao, Sun Xiaosheng's behavior had already completely exposed the fact that he was sent by the bigwigs to pick a fight.
The demonic beasts watching the show around them couldn't help but look around, pretending they hadn't seen Sun Xiaosheng's awkward state.
Huang Xiaoyao didn't care about any of that. Pointing at Sun Xiaosheng, she shouted, "Aha, so it was Grandpa Turtle and my brother! Maybe my father is involved too!"
"Dad! Are you around here? Come out right now, I've already discovered you!"
Huang Xiaoyao yelled at the surroundings. After a moment with no response, she puffed her cheeks and stomped her foot angrily.
"Hu-human! Are you going to fight or not!"
Sun Xiaosheng glared fiercely, baring his teeth, seemingly very displeased at being seen through by a human.
Mo Tianxiao replied loudly, "Fight! Of course we will fight!"
"However!"
Changing his tone, Mo Tianxiao swept his gaze around. He knew there were definitely quite a few old geezers watching from the shadows. This was an opportunity.
Since these old geezers wanted to teach him a lesson, they would have to pay a price.
"However what?" Sun Xiaosheng asked.
Mo Tianxiao grinned, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes. "However, before we exchange blows, let's add a little wager."
for mindless slaughter, this isn't for you.] My name is Ye Shu, and I'm a transmigrator. It seems I'm supposed to be the protagonist, but that feels pretty unlikely. This world has been invaded by a system. The antagonists on the other side have suddenly become pure, flawless saints. The female leads have been force-fed the so-called "original plot," making them think they've been reborn. Now, everyone thinks I'm scum. Including the old lady in my ring. And here I am, in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, braising pork. To put my situation in perspective— It's as if, the moment Xiao Yan stepped into the Monster Beast Mountain Range, the Soul Emperor already knew he would become the Flame Emperor, and Yao Lao had been turned to the enemy's side. I have nothing right now. Oh wait, that's not true. I do have a white-haired loli child-bride who's the Heavenly Dao, and her only skill is acting cute. So, tell me guys... what are my chances of making it to the end?

Sorry, I gain ten thousand years of cultivation every second. You’re the strongest chosen one, blessed with heaven-defying destiny? Sorry, I gain ten thousand years of cultivation every second. From this day forth, I have only one thing to say: “I gain ten thousand years of cultivation every second. Now, how exactly are you supposed to deal with that?”
