Cloud Witch Mountain

"Of course, how could a lowly person dare to deceive the Holy Son?"

A fawning smile appeared on Black Harrier's face, but a hint of disdain flashed in his eyes.

Even though it was just a fleeting glimpse, it still couldn't escape Cao Youqian's eyes. He sneered inwardly, "Kid, you're not worthy to play dirty tricks with me. Back when I was a spoiled brat at the Dao Dao-Seeking Academy, my ability to read people was far beyond what a mere Fire God Sect like you could ever hope to achieve."

A slight smile played on his lips, "Then this Holy Son will have to test you, test you."

"Please ask, Your Majesty."

Black Harrier's face still wore that obsequious expression, no different from any other lackey.

Cao Youqian, "Are there any Great Sage within the Fire God Sect?"

"To be honest, Your Highness, there are indeed such people. However, those Great Sage have no fixed abode. As long as we don't offend them, there will be no danger."

Black Harrier knew that this kind of thing couldn't be kept secret.

"They're just some Great Sage; this Holy Son has no fear of them."

Cao Youqian looked disdainful, but his eyes remained fixed on Black Harrier's eyes.

This time, Black Harrier showed no sign of surprise. "What the Holy Son says is absolutely right. It would be a wonderful thing to see the Holy Son defeat Great Sage."

"You're quite the smooth talker, kid. From this day forward, you and Little Lion will both serve by my side."

Cao Youqian said in a condescending tone.

"This humble servant thanks the Holy Son."

Black Harrier feigned excitement and knelt down to kowtow to Cao Youqian.

The Prince Mad Lion never expected that this guy would be favored by the Holy Son just because he knew how to flatter, and he was extremely jealous.

You should know that you only got this opportunity through connections and by serving the Son of God wholeheartedly.

If it weren't for the Holy Son standing in front of him, he really would have wanted to shout, "What makes you think you're so great?"

"Alright, enough of this formality."

Cao Youqian continued to ask, "Are there Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon within Cloud Witch Mountain?"

Upon hearing this, the expressions of everyone present changed drastically.

Black Harrier trembled, feeling as if his identity had been exposed. He cautiously raised his head to look at Cao Youqian, wanting to say something, but not daring to.

Fortunately, the Prince Mad Lion spoke up first, "Holy Son, you're not going to go find the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon, are you? They're beings of the Saint Realm. Even if they're not in Cloud Witch Mountain, if we go there, we'll never return."

Cao Youqian kicked him in exasperation and said, "Look at you, you coward. Even without Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon, we can still challenge Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon descendants and see if their demonic bodies are stronger, or if my Immortal Physique is stronger."

Upon hearing this, Black Harrier breathed a sigh of relief and slowly said, "Holy Son, there are indeed Half-Demon in Cloud Witch Mountain, but finding their traces is just as difficult as finding Great Sage."

Cao Youqian, "It's alright. I'm just going to try my luck. I wonder if there are any dangerous places in Cloud Witch Mountain. I brought you all out here; I can't let everyone go back empty-handed."

"Yes, but it's very difficult to get into those dangerous places."

As Black Harrier spoke, he began to think in his mind how to wipe out this group of people in one fell swoop; these people were all top-notch sacrifices.

Cao Youqian: "I like challenging things, so you'll lead us to dangerous places."

"Promise."

Black Harrier agreed without hesitation, while the Prince Mad Lion, standing to the side, couldn't help but show a worried expression on his face upon hearing this.

He glanced at Cao Youqian, wanting to say something, but swallowed the words back at the last moment.

Night fell quickly.

As the night deepened, the cultivators all went to sleep in their tents, leaving only a few on night duty.

At midnight, a figure silently left his tent. He came to the outside of the camp, took out a hawk from his beast-taming bag, placed a jade slip on the hawk's claw, and then released the hawk.

After doing all this, the shadowy figure first glanced around to make sure no one was watching, then turned and went back to his tent.

Little did he know that his every move was being watched by Cao Youqian and the others with their divine senses.

The Great Sage Eight Treasures murmured, "The Holy Son is truly a prophet; the fish took the bait so quickly."

Nothing happened that night.

The next morning, Cao Youqian announced to everyone that he would be going into Cloud Witch Mountain for training, and would also take everyone to find treasures.

Upon hearing the news, everyone cheered excitedly.

Long live the Holy Son!

"The Holy Son Peerless!"

Seeing this, Black Harrier, standing behind Cao Youqian, sneered inwardly, "You're all happy now. Once you enter Cloud Witch Mountain, you'll become the cult leader's sacrifices in less than seven days."

After the team finished packing, they set off immediately.

On the carriage.

Cao Youqian asked, "Eight Treasures- Master Babao, when will Uncle-Master Mysterious Crystal and the others join forces to surround Cloud Witch Mountain and wipe out the Fire God Sect?"

The Great Sage Eight Treasures said, "Let's set the time for seven days from now."

Seven days?

Cao Youqian murmured, "There's enough time."

Cloud Witch Mountain is a no-man's-land.

It is also the border area between the kingdoms of the Mad Lion, the Giant Elephant, and the Treant.

The Cloud Witch Mountain stretch for Wanli from east to west, winding and twisting, with varying heights and undulating terrain, and crisscrossing ravines.

The mountains are rich in resources, a paradise for cultivators, but a hell for the weak.

Therefore, all sorts of cultivators gather here, allowing heretics like the Fire God Sect to grow strong in the Cloud Witch Mountain.

Around noon, Cao Youqian's team slowly entered the Cloud Witch Mountain.

They raised the banners of the Frenzied Lion Kingdom and the Giant God Academy, and together with the monks in the group, each of them exuded a powerful aura.

Wherever he went, beasts fled in terror, and evil cultivators hid in fear.

The cultivators in the mountains had no idea where this group was headed; the only thing they could do was avoid provoking them.

Black Harrier was in high spirits, riding a magnificent black unicorn at the head of the procession, his heart filled with excitement.

He had finally lured the Holy Son of the Dao-Seeking Academy into the Cloud Witch Mountain. Once the Grand Elders of the sect arrived, he could wipe them all out in one fell swoop.

I'm sure the sect will reward me handsomely, and then I'll have a good chance of breaking through to the Heavenly Origin Realm.

The team traveled through the mountains for three days without encountering any significant trouble. Cao Youqian didn't even need to intervene; these problems were resolved by his subordinates.

That evening, Cao Youqian called Black Harrier to his side, "Black Harrier, how many days' journey is it to the place you mentioned?"

Black Harrier respectfully replied, "Your Highness, we will reach our destination in two more days."

"Hurry up, this Holy Son can't wait to enter this dangerous place and find out what's going on," Cao Youqian said excitedly.

Black Harrier laughed, "Holy Son, I will definitely not disappoint you. It will be a place that will satisfy you."
