Journey to the West: Begins with Tiger Vanguard

Chapter 72 The King’s trusted confidant has great powers!
He is tall and strong, with two horns on his head.

"It's the general."

"The General is Out"

Seeing the familiar figure coming out, several leaders immediately said: "The leader must know what is going on now."

"Let's go ask the leader."

Just as they were about to move forward, an even taller, more sturdy figure with a wild boar head with sharp fangs walked out of the wide and tall Jindou Cave entrance.

Followed by.

Another figure walked out.

However, this one is relatively rare, especially among male monsters. He is a big monster with the appearance of a middle-aged human and wearing a white robe.

"Who are these two?"

Several leaders immediately stopped, and Qi Hu walked to the big leader Niu Er and asked in a low voice.

"The one in front is the king of Black Bear Ridge in the west of our territory."

Niu Er no longer dared to treat Qi Shanjun as a junior, no matter in terms of strength or status. Seeing Qi Hu asking, Niu Er immediately whispered, "And the one behind is the king of the Black Wolf Valley in the north."

Apart from Niu Er, who has followed the former king, now General Black Horn, for the longest time, he had met the eldest brother once in his early years.

Several other leaders, including the big squirrel demon who is now ranked second in seniority on Jindou Mountain, have never seen the two territorial kings of Black Bear Ridge and Black Wolf Valley next to Jindou Mountain.

After knowing the identities of the two strange monsters in front of him.

Qi Hu stopped talking, and the other leaders did the same.

At such a close distance, any words spoken would definitely be heard by those two great demons.

"Black Horn."

Walking out of the cave, the Lord of Black Wolf Valley, the wolf demon Broken Tooth, who was dressed in a white robe, looked at the bull demon Black Horn and said with a smile: "From now on, we are colleagues. You must take care of each other in the future."

"Humph"

Hearing Broken Tooth's words, Black Horn snorted coldly, and then said in a cold voice: "Are you willing to give up the reputation of Black Wolf Valley?"

Broken Tooth smiled: "Names and such are all empty, only oneself is the most important. Besides, the king is so powerful, if I don't realize it, I will be immature."

As he said this, he looked at the wild boar demon beside him and said with a smile: "Old Plague, don't you think so?"

"That's right!"

The King of Black Bear Ridge, the wild boar demon Old Wen, replied in a muffled voice, "Black Horn, the King is so powerful, it is not enough for you to serve him alone. Now that the King has accepted Broken Tooth and me to join him, then from now on, as Broken Tooth said, we are colleagues and we need to take care of each other."

“That’s the reason.”

Broken Tooth continued with a smile, "Although there were some frictions between the three of us before, it was just the deaths of some monsters below, and there is no big hatred. You, Black Horn, are not so petty, right?"

What these two guys said makes some sense.

But Heijiao was still very unhappy. After all, he could have wiped out Black Bear Ridge and Black Wolf Valley like he did to Snake Neck Ridge. By then, these two guys would either kneel before him and beg for mercy, or get out of the Jindou Mountain Range. How could they say such sarcastic words in front of him like they were doing now?

Besides, he could have enjoyed the title of king alone, second only to the first monster and above all the others.

Now I have to share the profits with these two guys and become colleagues, which makes me feel aggrieved and unhappy.

But the king had already agreed to let these two guys surrender, so he didn't dare to say anything more and could only accept it.

But in terms of attitude, if you want him to be nice to these two guys, forget it.

He Hejiao has never been a generous monster.

"Humph"

Hei Jiao snorted again, and without replying, he said directly: "The king has ordered that Snake Neck Ridge has been destroyed. A banquet will be held on the mountain tonight to reward the subordinates. Now that you two have joined my Jindou Mountain, will you come together tonight?"

"certainly."

Hearing what Black Horn said, the wolf demon Broken Tooth laughed and said, "Now my Black Wolf Valley has been renamed Golden Gourd Mountain. I am also a Golden Gourd Mountain demon, so of course I have to come. Besides, this is the king's order."

"I'm coming too"

The wild boar demon Lao Wen at the side also spoke up at this time: "I, the old pig, will obey the king's orders. I will bring my little ones with me."

"You can come"

Hearing what his two colleagues said, Hei Jiao said coldly: "But I will only be responsible for the meat and drinks of my little demons. As for the two of you, you need to be responsible for your own little demons. Is that okay?"

Monsters can be eaten.

No matter whether it is big or small, there is no one that cannot be eaten.

Not to mention that they are a large group, hundreds or even thousands of monsters. You can imagine how much meat is needed if there is no limit on the supply.

Therefore, this kind of banquet is usually held by the monster group only once every many years.

There are many big monsters who encounter stingy mountain kings and never give the little monsters below them a chance to eat meat.

Just like Jindou Mountain.

The last time such a banquet was held was forty or fifty years ago.

The meat supply was limited that time.

therefore.

Heijiao suddenly mentioned that there would be a banquet held in Jindou Mountain tonight, and asked the two monsters to be responsible for the food and drink of the little monsters under their command, which was quite a burden.

"certainly."

Hearing what Black Horn said, Broken Tooth immediately said, "We were not able to participate in the fight against Snake Neck Ridge, so we should each take responsibility."

The pig demon Lao Wen also nodded and said, "I have no objection either."

"Since there is a banquet tonight, we will leave first."

Broken Tooth said at this time: "But since the banquet is held on Jindou Mountain, we will have to trouble General Hei to find the venue for the banquet."

"It's just a small matter," Hei Jiao said casually.

"See you tonight."

After saying that, Duan Ya's feet suddenly became strong and he flew straight out of the mountain.

The pig demon Lao Wen followed immediately.

Quickly left the main mountain of Jindou Mountain.

Old Wen flew close to Broken Tooth and immediately said unhappily, "What banquet? I think Black Horn did it on purpose."

"That shouldn't be the case. After all, they just destroyed Snake Neck Ridge."

Broken Tooth said, "But no matter if he did it on purpose or not, since we have agreed, we must follow suit. Besides, Black Horn might even want to have unlimited meat. After all, they just fought at Snake Neck Ridge and have a lot of blood food."

As he said that, Broken Tooth turned around and said, "I don't have any problem here. Old Wen, can you please avoid being laughed at by them?"

"Humph"

"No way!"

Lao Wen said: "It's still a long way to night, that's enough time."

The two demons didn't chat for long.

The pig demon Lao Wen turned around and flew westwards to his own territory.

Watching the old plague figure walking away.

Broken Tooth couldn't help but sigh.

Before today, his relationship with Old Wen was similar to that between him and Black Horn.

But now, because of Black Horn and Jindou Mountain, his relationship with Lao Wen is rapidly improving.

Now, not only did he suddenly have a king above his head, but he would also have to pay tribute frequently in the future, and often come to Jindou Mountain to see the king and obey his orders.

This was really uncomfortable for him who was used to being a mountain king.

Also, his territory could no longer be called "Black Wolf Valley" and had to be renamed Jindou Mountain.

As such.

Let Duan Ya stand in the air in silence for a long time, and finally let out a long sigh, turned around and disappeared into the forest.

Jindou Mountain is the main mountain.

Watching the figures of Duan Ya and Lao Wen walking away.

The bull demon Heijiao couldn't help but snort coldly again.

At this time.

Qi Hu, the big leader Niu Er, and the last leaders of Man Gu came forward.

Niu Er opened his mouth and said, "Brother, have they also surrendered to our king now?"

The voices of the three Black Horn demons chatting just now were not deliberately concealed.

Therefore, Qi Hu and the others heard something and found out that the two monsters from Black Wolf Valley and Black Bear Ridge had successfully surrendered to their king.

"right"

Facing his second brother's words, Hei Jiao nodded unhappily and said, "The king has agreed. From now on, they will also be monsters of our Jindou Mountain. There will be no more Black Wolf Valley and Black Bear Ridge."

"But I am the general, and we conquered Snake Neck Ridge."

At this point, Hei Jiao's inky black face showed a rare smile and said, "So, Snake Neck Ridge is still owned and controlled by us, and they still only own the original territory."

"But in the future, if their little demons can come to our spiritual land, we can also go to theirs."

"In short, we can't beat them like we beat Snake Neck Ridge."

Hearing their general's dissatisfaction with the two monsters, Qi Hu and other leaders listened attentively without saying a word.

After complaining about the two monsters, Hei Jiao said, "Come with me!"

Not long after.

Leader Qi Huwu followed General Heijiao to his cave.

Inside the spacious cave.

The bonfire was great.

The aroma of meat cooking in a large pot fills the air.

Such a raw meaty aroma.

As soon as the leaders entered the cave, they immediately smelled that the meat in the pot was the blood food of monsters, not ordinary meat.

"General."

"General."

When the little demon who was watching the fire saw the general and the leaders coming in, he immediately saluted.

"Everyone, take a seat."

Sitting in the main seat in front of the big fire pit in the middle of the cave, Heijiao immediately said.

It is said that ever since the emergence of the new king, Black Horn, who has become a general, has become obviously more generous to the leaders below him than before. Now there are two more big monsters from the Black Wolf Valley and the Black Bear Ridge who have joined him, and there are two more generals in the Golden Gourd Mountain. Black Horn is much closer to the leaders below him than before.

There is no fool among the monsters who can break through and become the leader, and they can all feel it.

Qi Hu and several leaders sat down around the big fire pit.

Hei Jiao then said directly: "This general has decided to move the cave to the Snake Neck Ridge where we just conquered in a few days. But here in the main mountain, the king needs to be served. Who of you is willing to stay and serve the king?"

The words fell.

The five leading monsters present were immediately shocked upon hearing this, and they all sat up straight subconsciously. They had already seen the generosity of the king.

Not long ago.

The scene of Qi Shanjun being appreciated and rewarded with treasures by the king was clearly visible in their minds.

Staying to serve the king at this time is the best opportunity to please the king, and no one would be unwilling to do so.

For a while.

The five leading monsters, including the snake, suddenly became excited.

"hey-hey."

Looking at the expressions of the five leaders in front of him, Hei Jiao grinned and said, "It seems that they are all willing, but only one can stay, and the rest must follow me to Snake Neck Ridge."

The words have not yet fallen.

"Chief, I am willing to stay!"

The bull demon Man Gu finally couldn't help it and spoke first.

“Little ones are willing too.”

The big guy also spoke at this time.

"Brother."

The leader Niu Er couldn't help but say, "I am willing to do that too."

"Ha ha ha ha."

Seeing the two or three big bulls scrambling for the lead, Hei Jiao burst into laughter. He then looked at Qi Hu and Shi She who hadn't spoken and asked with a smile, "You two are silent, aren't you willing?"

Snake shook his head: "I definitely want to, but I'm afraid I can't get it."

Hearing what Snake said, Black Horn immediately laughed and said, "You are quite self-aware."

Then, he looked at Qi Hu: "What about you?"

Qi Hu said: "I will follow the general's instructions in everything."

"Ha ha."

Hei Jiao laughed when he heard the voice and said, "Qi Shanjun, you are indeed smart."

As he said that, he looked at the leaders in front of him and said, "Forget it, I won't tease you anymore. Just let Qi Shanjun stay. You are a good cook, and your little minions are even better cooks. You will stay and serve the king. You will be the only one left on this main mountain. I will tell you something then."

"As for the rest of you, follow me to Snake Neck Ridge."

Hear this.

Qi Hu immediately saluted: "Thank you, General!"

Hei Jiao waved his hand and continued: "Now let me tell you about tonight's banquet."

More than half an hour later.

The leading monsters then walked out of the cave.

Fly towards the eastern cliff.

Qi Hu stood above the black cloud and immediately thought about the arrangements he had just heard in the General's Cave.

He doesn't need to worry too much about the dinner.

But General Black Horn said that the large group moved to Snake Neck Ridge, leaving him alone with his little demons to serve the king.

This matter has both advantages and disadvantages for him.

Needless to say, the good side is that it will naturally be close contact with the One-horned Rhinoceros King, which will help deepen the relationship, and maybe in the future you can really become the King's confidant.

But then he wouldn't be so free.

In the future, he will definitely not have as much time for cultivation as before, and it will not be so easy for him to leave Jindou Mountain and go to Chechi Kingdom.

Of course, maybe after I have a good relationship with the unicorn, it might be more convenient to go to Chechi Kingdom.

But it will definitely affect your cultivation.

However, there is nothing perfect in the world, and you cannot take all the benefits for yourself.

Such a thought.

Qi Hu felt relieved. Compared with the benefits he could get, the delay was nothing.

Falling off the edge of a cliff.

Return to your cave.

He waved his hand and released the ghost Liu Bin to watch over the fire pit.

Qi Hu strode to the soft bed at the back.

"Now I can finally see the harvest on the panel."

He let out a breath.

Thoughts moved slightly.

Virtual ink writing emitting a pale white light began to appear before our eyes.

[Realm: Middle stage of spiritual realm (1.35%)]

【Soul: 5.4】

[Kung Fu: Moon Yin Qi Eating Method (Minor Success) (61.25%); Kan Si Praying for Rain Method (Proficient) (0.1%)]

【神通：颊囊（小成）（10.62%）；虎啸（小成）（0.47%）；敛息（小成）（4.57%）；隐遁（小成）（0.11%）；伥鬼（熟练）（9.14%）；巨力（入门）（64.75%）；淬骨（入门）（45.41%）；践踏（入门）（42.66%）】

【.】

Looking at the data that keeps appearing in front of me.

Qi Hu stared at the soul bar with burning eyes.

Soon, the data behind the soul bar appeared in front of him, a full 5.4!

This was the most soul power he had ever had.

Although it is accumulated.

The soul power value of 5.4, minus the 2.6 soul power before midnight last night, is 2.8!

That night, he earned 2.8 soul powers.

Reflected a little.

It is roughly the same soul power as the monsters killed when returning to the mountain before.

Qi Hu stopped thinking about it.

His attention returned to the panel in front of him.

This time, plus signs appeared behind all the skills in the skills column and all the magical powers in the magical powers column, indicating that they can be strengthened.

"Does it take five points of soul power to strengthen the minor stage?"

Thoughts moved slightly.

Qi Hu clicked on the "Moon Yin Eating Qi Method" in the minor success stage.

[This enhancement consumes 5 soul power]

[Reinforce? 】

"really."

Looking at the prompt message appearing in front of him, Qi Hu immediately clicked no.

Soul power is precious.

Snake Ridge has been taken.

Black Wolf Valley and Black Bear Ridge also surrendered.

General Heijiao had not mentioned any plans to attack other monster territories before, which meant that it would not be easy for him to earn soul power in the future.

Unless you go out like before.

But he doesn't have the final say in Jindou Mountain, so he certainly can't leave whenever he wants.

Especially since he will have to take care of the One-horned Rhinoceros King by himself in a few days, he needs to be more careful.

The "Moon Yin Eating Air Method" was just a common practice passed down by General Black Horn when he first went up the mountain. It was the most common and probably the lowest kind of practice.

No matter how high the enhancement is, the efficiency of cultivation will be just so-so.

It has reached a small stage of success now, which is enough for the time being.

When he finds a better technique in the future, he will definitely change.

Naturally, there is no need to waste the precious five points of soul power to continue strengthening.

Then look at other methods.

The "Kansi True Method of Praying for Rain" does not need to be strengthened for the time being.

As for supernatural powers.

After a quick scan, Qi Hu's eyes fell on "Breath Concealment" and "Hideaway", the two magical powers that were most useful to him at the moment.

As for other magical powers that have also reached the minor success stage, such as "Cheek Pouch" and "Tiger Roar", as well as the magical power "Ghost" that has shined this time, he temporarily excluded them.

Because he is still too weak, the most important thing at the moment is to save his life rather than attack.

After some careful thought.

Finally, Qi Hu's gaze fell on the magical power of "Breath Concealment".

Those with high cultivation, whether they are monsters or monks.

His five senses and spiritual thoughts are particularly sensitive.

Unless they possess special magical powers, their detection methods usually rely on their five senses and divine thoughts to detect the enemy.

He had already seen the ability of the magical power "Concealing Breath".

The last time I went back to the mountain, I used the "Breath Concealment" magical power at the minor success stage combined with "Invisibility" to hide from the eyes of a big monster in the Yuandan realm.

If so, it can continue to strengthen.

The power of the magical power of "holding breath".
Qi Hu was really looking forward to it.

Ten birds in the forest are worse than one in the hand.

This enhancement will surely take his ability to survive and save his life to a higher level!

Thinking of this.

Qi Hu's mind moved slightly.

[This enhancement consumes 5 soul power]

[Reinforce? 】

"strengthen!"

The data panel in front of me suddenly lit up.

When the light fades.

Qi Hu looked over immediately and saw that the suffix of the magical power "Lian Xi" had changed to "Da Cheng"!
