Immortal Dao Fruits, Cards to Help Me

Chapter 58 Neighborly discord is all due to instigation.

And the last magic weapon was specifically designed to deal with him.

It was a black wooden tiger carving!

This wood carving contains a whisker that Tiger Mountain Lord lost in his early years!
Wuyou spent over twenty years just refining this thing—of course, he didn't only do this one thing, but it still has a long history.

Carved from a thousand-year-old piece of submerged wood, it is placed inside the beard of Tiger Mountain Lord and subjected to a secret ritual. It is then placed deep underground in a malevolent burial site and is refined once a year.

It's been 22 years now, and we've been waiting for this moment!

Chen Xiuxian was the only one facing Tiger Mountain Lord, and of course, his pockets were already stuffed full of magical treasures.

Meanwhile, Wuyou continued casting spells on the black tiger wood carving from behind.

Tiger Mountain Lord was originally over three meters tall and exceptionally robust. Now, after being pricked with needles and cursed, even his eyes have become clouded!

Although he was level 37, all his attributes were down by 30%, his defense was zero, his spells were sealed, his mana was malfunctioning, and his mind was being eroded from time to time, making it impossible for him to concentrate. He was completely disoriented...

As for Chen Xiuxian, he already has two level 4 red-quality magic weapons in his possession!

Chen Xiuxian: I should avoid his sharp edge?!

……

"Ding~ You have killed the level 37 Tiger Leap Gorge Fairy Leader, Tiger Mountain Lord, and gained 2252 experience points."

Tiger Mountain Lord is dead, killed by Chen Xiuxian in a one-on-one duel.

Forget about how it was a one-on-one fight, just tell me whether he killed her or not!

A huge tiger skin was spread out on the stone chair~
This thing, when it revealed its true form, was over ten feet long, more than four meters!
Chen Xiuxian obtained one red card, two blue cards, and over two thousand experience points.
Chen Xiuxian suspected that if the tiger hadn't been weakened layer by layer, he could have killed it in a one-on-one fight, and the gains would have been even greater!

But I'm afraid they really can't beat them.

[Tiger's Roar (Blue)]

3th-tier spell cards
The tiger roars, startling all the beasts in the mountains; the wind rises, allowing it to roam freely for thousands of miles.

It unleashes a fierce tiger's roar, intimidating the enemy and bolstering allies.

Review: You need a great voice to get the full effect!
After thinking it over, Chen Xiuxian decided to give this card to Mimi.

I'm going to be someone who flies the heavens on a sword in the future, so shouting and yelling is really not classy.

[Comprehension Card (Blue)]

Tier 3 Attribute Card
Use: +1 Comprehension.

Number of times: 1/1
Comment: You suddenly realized something!
This is good!
Wow, it can even increase innate attributes!

Even if it's just a little bit!
Used it!

[The Law on Promoting Customs (Red)]

4th-tier spell cards
Clouds follow dragons, wind follows tigers; the fierce tiger naturally masters the art of stirring up wind.

By learning the art of creating wind, one can generate and control fierce storms.

Review: It works exceptionally well when used in conjunction with "Buyun" or "Zuolang".
This is something I can keep and take a look at!
It's a pity that no cultivation technique or even a magic weapon was found.

I don't know if the tiger was too poor, or if I was too clever and messed up the tiger too much, thus reducing my gains.

Chen Xiuxian personally inspected it and found that even the nine-ringed broadsword used by Tiger Mountain Lord was made of more than 20 kilograms of ordinary iron, and it was even a bit rusty!

Holy crap, how come you're so poor? And you still call yourself the Demon King!

But then I looked at the leopard-headed guy again, and wow, he was so poor he only had a cloak and a big iron spear...

Chen Xiuxian suddenly realized: It's not that you guys are poor, it's that Wuyou is too rich, she's a bit abnormal!

However, it's understandable, since she can be considered the "protagonist" in this "dungeon".

Yeah, the main villain~
……

Just as the celebration was underway at Green Snake Mountain, with a grand banquet, the golden-haired leopard-headed fellow became restless.

Because he feels something's not right now!

To put it simply, fairies are rather silly and too honest; they've never seen anything as cunning as humans.

Someone like Mochou Wuyou is practically the "Einstein" of fairies!

As for Leopard Head, he's the same; he doesn't have much scheming or plotting, and he relies more on his fists.

However, since he lived near a human town and had a lot of contact with humans, he did learn some things.

For example, right now...

After Lord Hushan fell, he felt that something was wrong.

When the celebratory banquet began, the little devils under their command and the three leaders chatted and laughed with each other, eating and drinking to their hearts' content.

Looking at the head of the table, the Green Snake Lady was leaning against the young human man, pouring him wine.

The pretty boy, holding a wine bowl, had his arm around the snake's waist, and they were talking about something that made Lady Green Snake's delicate body tremble.

Perhaps noticing that Leopard Head was observing them, Green Snake Wuyou gently nudged Chen Xiuxian, gesturing for him to look at the golden-haired leopard head. Chen Xiuxian glanced over, raised his bowl to Leopard Head from afar, and offered a toast.

Leopard Head didn't dare to be negligent. He grinned and downed the wine in one gulp.

When he raised his bowl to toast and covered his face, Leopard Head looked very serious.

This pretty boy is really good-looking; no wonder he bewitched Lady Green Snake so much that she was willing to submit to him.

Judging by his strength, I felt he was far inferior to me, yet he still managed to kill that tiger-like creature, Lord Tiger Mountain…

wrong!

Was Lady Green Snake prepared for Tiger Lord's death all along?
There were flags and statues, and even the traitor who dropped the needle during the sneak attack...

and many more!

Could it be among my own younger brothers?

One more glance, and sigh, look at these idiots grinning from ear to ear, they'd love to immediately pledge allegiance to Lady Green Snake and change their ways!
It's impossible to tell who the mole is anymore, because they all look alike!

Now, Leopard Head is starting to doubt the Double Dog Cave incident. Could it be that Tiger Mountain Lord really didn't do it?

Now that the tiger's head is dead, I'm in danger!

Wuyou naturally noticed Leopard Head's little tricks. In fact, the banquet that Chen Xiuxian and his wife were hosting was for Leopard Head.

With Wuyou's ruthlessness, he intended to quietly eliminate Leopard Head and take over his underlings and territory.

However, Chen Xiuxian taught her a principle: make more friends and fewer enemies.

There are four more demon caves outside, among which the rhinoceros demon is extremely powerful. Even if the two of us join forces, we are not confident at all. So naturally we need to unite more people!
Wuyou was born from a snake spirit. Although she was exceptionally intelligent and resourceful, she had never studied politics.

They had never been exposed to his wisdom.

With Chen Xiuxian's guidance, it was like seeing the moon through the clouds; countless inspirations and strategies surged into his mind in an instant.

……

Green Snake Worry-Free: "This Leopard Head isn't a brainless brute. Because he's had a lot of contact with humans, he's learned a lot of principles. I heard that when they go down the mountain from their demon cave to buy things in human towns, they always pay! They don't usually harm people."

Chen Xiuxian nodded: Since this Leopard Head has a heart to do good and doesn't do much evil, let's give him a chance to abandon evil and embrace good, to turn from darkness to light!

While they were drinking, one of the deer spirits under Leopard Head's command approached, "Your Majesty..."

"Oh? Old Deer, what's going on?"

Chen Xiuxian and Wuyou pretended not to see anything and continued drinking. Hmm, leather cups~
Chen Xiuxian asked in surprise, "Oh dear! Could it be that this wine is too strong? How come I feel a little dizzy after only three or four cups?"

Wuyou gently supported him, saying, "My lord, please don't be offended. It's not that I have a low alcohol tolerance..." In truth, he really did have a low alcohol tolerance.
"It's just that my sister and I are, after all, snake spirits, and are naturally poisonous. Although most of that poison has been refined, since the demon cores haven't been fully formed, there will still be some residue."

"The residual poison itself is harmless, but if one comes into contact with it too deeply, it will have an effect, namely, causing dizziness, confusion, and loss of mental focus."

Chen Xiuxian: You two sisters' poison is practically my bane!
Wuyou poured Chen Xiuxian another cup of wine, this time not daring to use a "skin cup" again, and said, "Sister is lazy and doesn't care about details, so the poison should be more pronounced. Has my lord smelled any special odor?"

"Hmm... I smelled a sweet fragrance."

Wuyou covered her mouth and chuckled, "Then it must be that my sister deliberately poisoned you~"

Chen Xiuxian grabbed her slender waist and asked, "And what about you? Didn't you use poison when we first met?"

A gentle glint appeared in Wuyou's eyes. "My poison has been refined to be colorless and odorless; my lord simply cannot smell it."

Chen Xiuxian: Good, good, good! I knew you two sisters were here to bring me bad luck!
While the two of them were flirting and joking, Leopard Head had already been persuaded by his old subordinates.

It turned out that it was Ah Qi, the Black Fox leader who was once under Tiger Mountain Lord, who had a heart-to-heart talk with the Deer leader under Leopard Head.

The Black Fox Leader: "Back when I served under Lord Tiger Mountain, I was quite diligent. But now that King Tiger has passed away, I'm also without a future. As the saying goes, 'A wise man submits to circumstances'..."

"Why don't you persuade your king to follow my example and directly pledge allegiance to the Green Snake King?"

"Look at the Green Snake Queen, she now has a strong and well-equipped army, and is already the number one power in the southwest. If we don't surrender now..."

The deer leader was quite the old fox, having followed Leopard Head for over a hundred years, and he was secretly anxious about the current situation.

This area, originally divided into three parts in the southwest, was quite peaceful.

But now that Lord Hushan is dead, things are in a very bad situation!
Regardless of whether the black fox was sent by the Green Snake King, the situation is already like this, and this is a rare opportunity.

If the other party gets impatient and takes action, things could get very difficult to handle.

So he went to persuade the leopard-headed man—"Your Majesty, the Imperial Army asked me to pass on a message to you."
After thinking it over and over, the leopard-headed man gritted his teeth, stamped his foot, stood up, and walked out with his wine bowl in hand.

"That Tiger Mountain Lord who stirred up trouble has already been dealt with by Master Chen. Now, the demon caves in the southwest should unite and grow stronger."

"I, Leopard Nanshan, am willing to submit to the Green Snake King and follow you to create a glorious future!"

Wow, that's quite quick-witted!
They managed to force out all the cleverness in Leopard Head's belly, and he said such nice things.

Chen Xiuxian and Wuyou exchanged a glance, then stood up and went down the steps to help the leopard-headed man up.

Wuyou said, "I am honored by King Leopard's high regard. It is like adding wings to a tiger. I would like to ask King Leopard to be the third king and join in this great undertaking!"

Even though Leopard Head here expressed his submission, the host and guests were all happy.

Meanwhile, fighting broke out in the other four demon caves!
