Mo Tang's First Lackey
Having the Azure Wolf King did have some benefits for Mo Tang, namely, he could learn a lot about the Beast Region through him.
As for the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan ...
According to the Azure Wolf King himself, his Azure Wolf Clan was originally a branch of the Silver Moon Wolf Clan, a major clan in the Beast Region. The Silver Moon Wolf Clan was one of the more powerful clans among the vassal clans of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan. Therefore, the Azure Wolf Clan could also be considered a vassal clan of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan.
However, the Azure Wolf Clan is relatively weak. The strongest among them is only a Six-Star Dou Zong, and Dou Zun expert. Therefore, they are the most inconspicuous among all the vassal races of the Sky Demon Phoenix.
Therefore, the Azure Wolf King naturally knew nothing about the secrets of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan.
"Then why aren't you staying in the Beast Region? Why did you come here?" Mo Tang asked curiously.
At this point, the Azure Wolf King's eyes immediately filled with resentment again, and he whispered, "After successfully transforming into human form, I thought I'd venture into the human realm. I stumbled upon that Wuji Berry in these Vast Mountain Range, so I decided to stay here and guard it, waiting for it to ripen so I could consume it to help purify my bloodline..."
At this point, the Azure Wolf King wisely shut his mouth, but Mo Tang still coughed awkwardly.
Well, he knew what would happen next without needing to be told. The Wuji Berry had just ripened when he caught up with it and absorbed it, converting it into energy...
However, that thing has long since turned into several hundred points of High-grade Energy and entered his own system, so even if he wanted to return it to the other party, he couldn't.
Seeing the Azure Wolf King putting on a pitiful look, Mo Tang's lips twitched.
If you showed your true form and made that expression, I could find it somewhat cute... But now that you're acting like such a reckless brute, what the hell are you trying to be cute for!
"Ahem! Um, I'm talking about Little Wolf..."
"Little wolf?" The Azure Wolf King was completely dumbfounded.
Is it calling itself?
Mo Tang smiled slightly, looking at the bewildered fellow, and said in a tempting tone, "How about this, since the Wuji Berry is gone, why don't you come with me from now on..."
If the opportunity arises, I can also train you properly, improve your bloodline strength and such, so that when I return to my clan, I can also raise your clan's status among the subordinate races.
The Azure Wolf King, who had been wondering if Mo Tang wanted to gain both wealth and people after hearing the first half of his sentence, suddenly had his wolf eyes light up after hearing the second half.
Yes!
How could I not have thought of that...
If I could get involved with a Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan, wouldn't my Azure Wolf Clan rise in status as well?
Moreover, if he could become a lackey of a Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan, then which of those arrogant fellows from the main clan, the Silver Moon Wolf Clan, would dare to look down on him?
I'll kill you! Humph!
The thought that those annoying Silver Moon Wolf Clan members who had bullied him since childhood would one day be groveling before him filled the Azure Wolf King with sweetness, making him feel sweeter than if he had drunk honey...
Mo Tang stared speechlessly at the big guy who was lost in his own fantasies, drooling. He then impatiently kicked him.
"Alright, alright, what are you thinking! Tell me your answer now, or I'm leaving!"
The Azure Wolf King, awakened by Mo Tang's kick, wiped his mouth and nodded repeatedly in a very obsequious manner, "Yes, yes, this little beast is willing to follow you, sir, and be your most loyal guard!"
As he spoke, he pounded his chest loudly.
"Alright, since you've made up your mind, let's go. I have other matters to attend to. Oh, and from now on, please stop calling me 'little beast,' it's giving me a headache. From now on, I'll just call you Azure Wolf, and you can call me 'young master'..."
"Yes, young master, Azure Wolf understands!" Azure Wolf King immediately changed his tune, showing great tact.
However, when Mo Tang introduced Xiao Yi Xian to the other party, saying that she was his wife and that he should treat her as he had treated him, the Azure Wolf King was immediately surprised.
Pulling Mo Tang aside, the Azure Wolf King said somewhat nervously, "Young Master, don't you know that the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan doesn't allow its members to intermarry with outsiders? Especially since the other party is a human..."
When Mo Tang saw that this guy was being sneaky and ended up talking about this matter, he immediately rolled his eyes.
"I thought you were talking about something else, but it turns out it's just this... So what if I intermarry with humans? I still have one-third human blood! Did I say anything?"
The Azure Wolf King's mouth was enormous; his jaw looked like it was about to fall off.
"Young... Young Master, is what you're saying true..."
Mo Tang spread his hands. "How could this be fake? However, as my strength increases, the concentration of my bloodline is also increasing. I estimate that when I return to the clan, I can ask those old fogies of the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan for help, and it will improve even more."
In an instant, the Azure Wolf King was struck as if by lightning.
"What... what do you mean? You mean... you haven't been accepted by the main clan yet?"
Mo Tang rubbed his nose. "That's right, I haven't been to the Beast Region yet..."
It's over!
We've gotten on a pirate ship!
At that moment, only this one thought remained in the Azure Wolf King's mind.
Unfortunately, Mo Tang didn't care what he thought.
Now that this little wolf was one of his own, Mo Tang didn't believe it would dare betray him...
Ultimately, his bloodline as a Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan was genuine. Even if he was not valued or even ostracized by the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan in the future, it was still not something that a mere Azure Wolf Clan could afford to offend.
Therefore, the Azure Wolf King now has only one choice: to obediently follow me and pray that I can gain more power in the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan in the future...
The Azure Wolf King may seem foolish, but he can still understand the intricacies of the situation. So even though he looked like he wanted to cry, he still had no choice but to bite the bullet and become Mo Tang's first lackey.
After searching the entire mountain range once again, Mo Tang headed towards the Tianmu Mountain Range.
With the opening of the Sky Mountain Blood Pool imminent, Sky Eye Mountain must be packed with people by now, right?
After all, this is an opportunity that could help Dou Huang expert break through to the next level, and no one would want to let it go easily...
After hearing Mo Tang's destination, the Azure Wolf King's mind raced.
All adults in the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan are at the Seventh-tier. If this young master of mine can successfully break through to the Dou Zong level, then even if he goes to the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan in the future, there is a high chance that he will be kept instead of being expelled...
After all, the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan values its own bloodline extremely highly, and consequently, it is very protective of its own clansmen.
Although someone with a non-pure bloodline like Mo Tang would certainly provoke the wrath of many Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan, they wouldn't allow the Sky Demon Phoenix bloodline to circulate outside.
As for whether those Sky Demon Phoenix would kill the former directly, the Azure Wolf King never considered that.
The Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan is already small in number, and each member is extremely precious. How could they possibly commit such a brutal act of slaughtering their own kind?
Let alone a top-tier Demonic Beast family like the Sky Demon Phoenix, it's safe to say that no high-level Demonic Beast race in the Beast Region would commit such a devastating act!
