Chapter 415: Stopped By To Do Some Hunting
Instantly, many dogs exchanged looks. They were nervous.
The two Dog Demons in charge of guarding the gate used up all of their strength to swallow a mouthful of saliva before flying up into the air.
“Woof, who are you? What are you doing in Dog Mountain?”
The cloud below Li Nianfan’s feet stopped moving. He made a gesture, “Greetings to the two Dog Demons. May I know if a dog named Blackie’s here in this Dog Mountain?”
The two Dog Demons started to sweat. Their hair was shaking all over. However, they had to remain calm. “Ye…yes. Please, follow us.”
There was no sound in the mountain. All of the dogs were scared but curious. Even though they acted as if nothing was happening, they were actually sneaking peeks at Li Nianfan.
This was the master of the Lord Dog?
He had a golden cloud, he was indeed not ordinary!
However, he showed no hint of power or energy. He seemed like an ordinary man. He seemed to have returned to the basics!
Woof! Woof! Woof!
Just as Li Nianfan had landed, he heard a familiar bark. He was excited and let out a smile. “Blackie!”
Blackie turned into a black shadow and jumped over. He came to Li Nianfan’s feet and licked Li Nianfan’s legs and shoes. He seemed to enjoy it.
His tail was wagging as he circled a few times around Li Nianfan, trying to please him.
Li Nianfan quickly patted Blackie’s head and ruffled it. “Okay, okay! This is Dog Mountain. You can’t do this, it’s not elegant!”
The rest of the dogs were completely stunned. Their eyes popped out and they felt their blood flowing backward. Their dog hair stood up unwillingly and they felt their hearts in their throats.
This was their Lord Dog! The undefeatable, powerful, and arrogant Lord Dog!
He was still crushing the two demons below his paws moments ago, complaining how lonely it was to be undefeatable. Yet now, he had turned into a bootlicking dog and even tried to act cute in front of this man! What a change!
Their Lord Dog could wiggle his tail?
Their Lord Dog allowed others to ruffle his head?
Their Lord Dog could bark like a dog?
This world was indeed ever-changing. How insane!
Every dog was holding their breath, they were forcing themselves to calm down, trying to make sure they were not shivering.
“Look at you, now that you have a Dog Mountain, you don’t come home anymore. I even have to come here and look for you!” Li Nianfan smiled and shook his head. He looked up and was shocked. He could not help taking a step back as he pursed his lips. “What’s the matter? Why is their hair standing up?”
Li Nianfan saw that the hair of the dogs surrounding him was standing up like hedgehogs. Even the hair on their heads was spiked up.
It was apparent that those dogs were too terrified.
Deified Dog sat on the dog throne uneasily. His face changed as he commanded with a low growl, “How rude of you all, put down your hair!”
“Sorry, it’s our fault.”
All the dogs jolted and snapped back to reality. They were in shock with their scalps itching. They wanted to do as they were told but the more panicked and anxious they were, the higher their hair stood. They had no other choice but to use their tongues to lick down their own hair in place.
Deified Dog saw that Li Nianfan was looking at him. He instantly seized the chance and spoke cleverly, “Sorry, we were having a competition here to see who has the longest hair. They lost control. What an embarrassment.”
“There’s such a competition?” Li Nianfan was shocked, but when he saw the long hair on Deified Dog, he realized right away.
Lion Dog had the longest hair among the others. No wonder it hosted this competition, it was apparent that the Lord Dog was using its ranking and power to please himself!
Blackie licked Li Nianfan’s feet and parted his dog mouth. “Master, this is our Lord Dog.”
“I can tell.” Li Nianfan nodded and looked at Blackie with shock and delight. “Oh my! Blackie! You…you can speak now?”
Blackie nodded, “Yeah, master. I’ve cultivated results. I’ve become a small demon who can speak!”
Li Nianfan ruffled Blackie’s head, his eyes filled with love as if his child had grown up. “Clever, so clever! You’ve become a demon, it’s not easy! Well done!”
“Master, master!” Blackie was enjoying Li Nianfan’s touch. There were tears in his dog eyes. “I’ve wanted to call you my master for too long!”
The man and the dog caused an emotional scene.
The surrounding dogs teared up. Of course, they were not touched—they were attacked.
Enough of the act from the man and his dog! How mean of them, do they not care for the feelings of the others around them?
It was just that they were unable to beat them up. If not…the dogs would have beaten them up!
Deified Dog who was on the dog throne did not waste the chance. He was seizing his chance to eat the dog food. When he saw the reuniting scene, the dog food was no longer delicious. He could not help twitching as he tried to repress his urge to call out the man and his dog.
Deified Dog had seen more of the world. It naturally knew what that golden cloud meant—it was the Deluxe Merit Cloud!
A bigshot with a Deluxe Merit Cloud under his feet insisted on calling himself an ordinary man. A Godly dog who effortlessly crushed two big demons cried and called himself a small demon who finally learned how to speak!
Could they try to be more normal?
What happened to the world? Since when did it become so competitive?
Deified Dog could not hold it anymore. It coughed gently to stop this man and his dog from acting and said, “Backie, this is your master?”
Li Nianfan made a gesture. He said, “Hello, Lord Dog, I’m Li Nianfan, thank you for taking care of Blackie these days. I’m really grateful.”
He saw the dog food and the fruits around the Deified Dog. Li Nianfan could not help smiling.
Blackie was quite clever. It used good food to please this bigshot. At last, Blackie learned a few tricks from himself. He started off like this as well!
Blackie introduced, “Master, this is Deified Dog.”
“Deified Dog?” Li Nianfan was shocked. He raised an eyebrow as he looked at Deified Dog. He was perplexed.
Other than Wukong, the most memorable legendary figure was God Jiro and his dog, Deified Dog. This was the legendary Godly dog!
Back then, Wukong went back to his mountain to become a Monkey King. Now, the Deified Dog came back to become a Lord Dog.
Dragin and Nanan were shocked. They covered their mouths as they looked at Deified Dog. They said in shock, “The Deified Dog of God Jiro?”
Deified Dog did not dare to keep up the act anymore. It quickly stood up from its throne and said, “Who’d have thought that Blackie’s master is a Deluxe Merit Saint? A pleasure to meet you.”
No wonder Blackie could become a demon. It met a bunch of dog bigshots. Blackie had a bright future following them around.
Li Nianfan looked serious. “So you’re the Deified Dog, I’ve heard about you. It’s Blackie’s privilege to be able to follow you around. Blackie, have you thanked the Lord Dog for taking good care of you?”
Blackie put on a humble and respectful look. Without further ado, Blackie looked like a professional ordinary dog and said in a humble tone, “Thank you, Lord Dog, for taking good care of me.”
Deified Dog felt his heart twitching. It did not dare to breathe at all. Blackie thanked him, he was now in trouble!
Deified Dog was uneasy. He quickly waved it off with its paw, “Don’t be so polite. Blackie gave me that delicious dog food, I should be the one thanking him. Please, don’t be so polite.”
Li Nianfan smiled and waved it off, “Ha-ha, it’s just some ordinary food, it’s nothing.”
His eyes landed on the eye-catching porcupine and goshawk. Li Nianfan asked out of curiosity, “You hunted them down?”
Backie said, “Master, they’re the followers of Lord Kunpeng. They came here for trouble and Lord Dog killed them.”
Li Nianfan nodded. He frowned and felt uneasy.
This was just as he guessed. The bigshot behind the demons was Lord Kunpeng. With that, it would be hard for Daji and Fire Phoenix to try to rule the demons. How challenging! They were obviously not the enemies of Lord Kunpeng.
Li Nianfan secretly glanced at Deified Dog.
Judging by the situation, the dogs were not happy with Lord Kunpeng. After all, Deified Dog was powerful. It would be nice to have it as an ally.
With that in mind, Li Nianfan said, “Lord Dog, why don’t you hand these bodies to me? I can guarantee you, they’ll taste delicious!”
Deified Dog did not even think about it. He said right away, “Mr. Li, please, go ahead.”
“Blackie, bring these bodies with me.” Li Nianfan waved at Blackie.
Quickly, they walked to the side.
Li Nianfan was not in a rush to clean up the bodies. He said, “Blackie, how’re you getting on with Deified Dog?”
Blackie said, “Lord Dog likes to eat dog food. We’re quite close.”
“That’s good. To me, those who like good food are the easiest to get along with.” Li Nianfan let out a long sigh of relief. He smiled and said, “Now that you’ve become a demon, I should tell you something. Daji and Fire Phoenix want to rule the demons, but they…they’re not as powerful as Lord Kunpeng. Since you’re now a Dog Demon, you should please the Lord Dog well. This is so he can help Daji when the time comes. Do you understand?”
Blackie nodded. “I understand, master.”
“Good.” Li Nianfan smiled and ruffled Blackie’s head. He brought out a pile of condiments. “These are some condiments, they’re very handy. Watch me as I cook. This is so that you can make more good food to share with your mates.”
Li Nianfan was worried for Daji and Fire Phoenix.
After saying so, he looked at the two bodies and found it challenging.
Both the porcupine and the goshawk were not big. Even though they had cultivated into demons, their bodies were still not gigantic. This mountain was full of Dog Demons. How would these two bodies be enough?
He had to be fair to each of them. If there was not enough for everyone, those who did not get it would get upset. It was not good.
Nanan saw that Li Nianfan stopped, so she asked curiously, “Brother Nianfan, what is it?”
Li Nianfan shook his head. “These two demons aren’t enough for everyone.”
“Master, this is easy. Just hunt down more. It’s not a challenge,” Blackie said as he sprinted away.
Blackie went back to the base. Instantly, many Dog Demons rushed over.
Including the Deified Dog. He asked, “Erm…Lord Dog, how’s my acting?”
“Hardly a pass. Needs more practice,” Blackie scoffed nonchalantly. However, it sighed, “My master said the two demons aren’t enough for everyone.”
Pug Dog quickly said, “How hard is that? How much does he want? What species? We’ll capture some right away!”
“Do you think I’d sigh if it’s as simple?” Blackie glared at it coldly. “All this while, I’ve lived the same life as my master. Nobody knows my master better than I. If it wasn’t for me reminding everyone along the way, I can’t imagine how many people would have offended my master’s taboo! Just now, my master asked me to take care of the fox and the phoenix. He then said there’s not enough meat for everyone. Why would I not understand what he meant?”
Blackie lowered his head, he seemed to be struggling.
“Ever since the fox and the phoenix came, my master’s love has changed. Waa…now he even asked me to take care of them.”
The dogs exchanged looks, nobody dared to speak up.
After Blackie spoke to himself for a while, he shook his head and said, “Anyway, as long as my master’s happy, I’ll obey anything my master says. Anything else…is unimportant!”
With that said, Blackie remained on the same spot. However, a strange Qi exuded from its body. The surrounding dogs jumped up. They were caught off guard.
Following that, Blackie gradually lifted his paw and stretched it out in the air.
Under the gaze of everyone, his front leg vanished as if it had entered another space. It was as if there was a door in the air!
This was a very shocking sight. Although the movement was not big, it was a visual attack on one’s eyes!
Gasp!
…
At the same time.
A bunch of demons gathered.
It was a vulgar place with ice and flames all over. The forests were cleared out and the soil corrupted. There were dead bodies of demons all over.
Violence filled the air with constant growling. All kinds of demonic power were shaking up the space!
Daji and Fire Phoenix had fresh blood oozing out their mouths. The nine snowy-white tails behind Daji were trembling. She waved and an azure blue dragon-like ice froze a strong-built man. Instantly, he was turned into an ice sculpture.
However, this only lasted for three breaths. Cracks were showing on the ice sculpture. The cracks grew bigger and expanded.
Following that, along with a loud sound, the ice broke!
Meanwhile, a ball of golden flame was finally gathered in Fire Phoenix’s hands. A small golden phoenix was made and it flapped its wings as it flew to the man and crashed into him.
Along with a low growl, the man was sent flying away. His body was covered in flames.
“Argh!”
However, before Daji and Fire Phoenix could let out a sigh of relief, the man had turned into a gigantic black bear. He was growling with a lot of demonic power rushing up the sky. A wild wind was coming out of his body, blowing out the golden flames.
“What a Nine-Tailed Fox and Fire Phoenix. I was born with an innate shield and I’m more powerful than you two. Yet, I ended up in such a mess. Your talents are one of the best in the demon realm. If you become our servants, you could pass on your talented genes and strengthen the demons!” Black Bear spoke with a thick voice. His eyes were becoming darker. “Serving Lord Kunpeng isn’t an insult to you two. That’s it for now!”
Suddenly, a round drum was spat out from his mouth. The drum grew bigger with demonic energy injected into it. The bear paw then smacked on it loudly!
Bam! Bam! Bam!
The drumming was heard. Daji and Fire Phoenix spat out blood at the same time. They were anxious, but none of them were able to move.
The Black Bear smiled coldly. “It’s over now. Capture them and bring them back!”
Instantly, a demon mocked, “Ha-ha, they’re merely two Taiyi Golden Immortal Fox and Phoenix, and yet they tried to rule all of the demons! What a joke!”
“The dogs should be settled by now? Demons are just small toys to our Lord Kunpeng.”
“Cut the nonsense, these two have big secrets hidden with them. Bring them away right away!”
Vroom!
Meanwhile, a ripple appeared out of nowhere. The space vibrated along with the arrival of a terrifying Qi.
The originally cleared sky was suddenly darkened. Everyone was scared. They saw a massive dog paw appear from the sky before it came crashing down on them.
“Lord Dog! It’s Lord Dog’s paw!”
“He’s here! He’s here!”
The demons who came with Daji from the ordinary realm let out looks of delight!
Especially the little fox, wild boar, green python, and black boar. They recalled how they were played by Blackie back in the four-part architecture. By recalling those days, they realized how nostalgic it was. They were so emotional that they wanted to cry!
Lord Dog…was so powerful! Way more powerful than what they imagined.
Daji and Fire Phoenix were feeling emotional as well. They had known Blackie for a long time. It was just that Blackie did not seem to like them. He always stayed away from them.
The dog paw was not moving very quickly but it exuded an irresistible pressure making it impossible to run away from.
Under everyone’s stunned looks, the dog paw easily held the head of the black bear who was drumming.
The black bear was huge but compared to this dog paw, it was like a bear toy. The dog paw easily held its head and lifted it in the air.
The bear panicked and struggled helplessly. It cried out in despair, “Argh! Argh! What are you doing? Let me go!”
The dog paw vanished into nowhere. There was only an arrogant voice leaving a message behind.
“I stopped by to do some hunting, do continue with what you were doing.”
