Chapter 71: Beating the One-Eyed Man to a Pulp, and He Feifei's Bluntness

Through Old Eighth's words, Mo Fan instantly understood everything.

This One-Eye truly had malicious intentions. Bringing so many lesser demon retainers here was, firstly, to test his reaction to the scorpion demon's life and death, and secondly, to use the combined momentum of the mob to pressure him.

Put simply, he was trying to bully a newly appointed demon retainer!

From a deeper perspective, it was also a further probing of his bottom line.

For someone shoving their face right into yours like this, Mo Fan felt there was no need to remain polite anymore. A beating well deserved was a beating well given!

With that, he swung a fist straight at One-Eye's cheek, directly sending him flying.

With so many demon retainers surrounding the area at this moment, even Mo Fan could not single-handedly withstand such overwhelming momentum. The best method was to find a weak point and shatter that momentum from within.

Clearly, One-Eye was precisely that point!

So if he didn't beat One-Eye, who else was there to beat?

In Mo Fan's view, the monsters of Black Wind Mountain were all hotheads; only by displaying sufficient strength could he make the rest of the demons wary!

"You actually dare..."

One-Eye landed on the ground, a trace of disbelief in his eyes as his expression darkened instantly. However, before his words could completely fade away, Mo Fan pursued him and delivered a fierce roundhouse kick that sent him flying once again!

"Bang!"

A loud crash echoed out, and One-Eye's entire body was slammed directly into the nearby cliffside.

"Damn you, you have completely angered me!"

Roaring in fury, One-Eye let out a deafening wolf howl, then shot straight out from the cliff face, charging right at Mo Fan.

"Just a paltry blind old wolf, did you really think this retainer would be afraid of you?!"

Mo Fan sneered as demonic qi erupted within his body, causing his entire stature to expand significantly in an instant.

This made him, who was originally only around one meter seventy tall, instantly surge to over two meters. Since his robes were formed from his skin, they expanded along with him, making him look immensely muscular and formidable in a split second!

Boom!

The next moment, two fists collided, directly erupting into a tremendous roar.

A wave of air surged outward from where they stood, causing the robes of the surrounding demons to flutter violently in the wind.

The demon retainers maintained calm expressions, though they were somewhat surprised by Mo Fan's strength.

They had not expected this newly appointed toad demon retainer to be so formidable that he could actually clash in pure strength with One-Eye. This completely shattered their common perceptions.

One had to know that while the abilities of various animals varied after transforming into demons, they were almost always closely tied to their original beast forms. The weaker the original form, the less powerful the demon would be, even after successful transformation.

It was the same principle as a rabbit demon still being unable to defeat a hawk demon.

As for One-Eye, his original form was a wolf. Although he was blind in one eye, in terms of sheer strength alone, he far surpassed a toad demon.

Therefore, the scene before them felt somewhat bizarre.

As for Mighty and the other minor demons, they had long since turned pale with fright. When all was said and done, they were merely low-level demons far removed from the realm of demon retainers, so naturally, they could not stomach such a spectacle.

"How can your strength be this terrifying?!"

One-Eye's expression shifted slightly. He discovered that the strength of this Laobao was not inferior to his own in the slightest.

How was that even possible?

He was a wolf demon!

"Powerful?"

"Pardon me, I haven't even used my full strength yet, so... get lost!"

Mo Fan grinned viciously. The punch just now was merely a test. Perhaps his cultivation depth was not greater than One-Eye's, but his physical strength definitely far exceeded his opponent's!

Ever since his return from the Demonic Spirit Mountain Range, his strength had reached an astonishing five thousand catties, and upon subsequently breaking through to the demon retainer realm, it had skyrocketed to ten thousand catties!

Now that he had advanced once more to the mid-stage of the demon retainer realm, his sheer physical strength alone had reached a terrifying twenty thousand catties!

Two puluh thousand catties of brute strength—how could this one-eyed wolf demon possibly compare?

Following a low shout from Mo Fan, the power within his body surged and rolled, ultimately smashing toward the lone wolf. A rapid series of cracking sounds rang out, accompanied by the latter's miserable scream as his entire body was sent flying sideways yet again.

Upon seeing this, the surrounding demons could not help but twitch their eyelids.

The strength of this retainer Laobao was simply far too beyond their expectations!

"Ah... I'm going to kill you!!"

The lone wolf roared, looking somewhat flustered and exasperated at this moment.

Yet before he could even stand up, a massive foot directly stepped down onto his face.

One-Eye's newly raised head was pressed back down into the dirt.

"You said... you're going to kill whom?!"

Mo Fan's cold voice rang out. He gazed down at One-Eye with chilling eyes, exerting a slight pressure with his right foot that warped the opponent's facial features.

"Dammit, I am a demon retainer under the Fourth General, how dare you humiliate me like this!!"

One-Eye gritted his teeth, a surging blaze of fury erupting in his heart as the demonic qi within him stirred restlessly.

"So what if you're under the Fourth General? I'm under the Third General!"

Mo Fan scoffed coldly, then sneered again, "This is Black Wind Mountain. Just now, we were merely testing our strength against each other. If you resort to arcane arts and magical spells, that would break the rules, and at that time, I'm afraid even that Fourth General of yours won't be able to protect you!"

Mo Fan's words made One-Eye's heart jolt with caution, causing the demonic qi that had just flared up on his skin to slowly disperse.

Although filled with unwillingness, One-Eye understood the implication behind Mo Fan's words all too well.

Black Wind Mountain did not forbid private fights among demons, but under no circumstances were they allowed to result in fatalities. While he lagged behind Mo Fan in pure physical strength, he was certain that unleashing magical arts would allow him to kill this toad demon!

However, doing so would violate the rules, and how could the Grandpa Great King spare him then?

"Damn it, I accept this loss today. Take your stinky foot off!" One-Eye cursed under his breath.

Seeing this, Mo Fan withdrew his foot at the opportune moment, choosing not to continue humiliating the fellow. His goal was not to kill the opponent, but to force him to submit while simultaneously using this incident to deter the other demon retainers.

"Do you all think One-Eye retainer's suggestion just now was reasonable?"

"Does this retainer truly need to prove himself?"

Mo Fan swept his gaze across the gathered demon retainers and spoke slowly.

"Hhahahaha... Of course not!"

Just as the demon retainers fell silent, Big Horn let out a hearty laugh. He then walked over to Mo Fan, raised his foot, and kicked One-Eye—who was just about to stand up—back down onto the ground, cursing, "You worthless hound, you truly have some nerve, actually daring to use us as your pawns!"

With that, Big Horn looked back at Mo Fan and said, "Brother Laobao has truly remarkable skills. From what I can sense, your aura has reached the mid-stage of the demon retainer realm, right? To have cultivated to such a level within less than a year of entering the mountain, you are truly a formidable newcomer!"

Big Horn's words caused Mo Fan to inwardly tense up. He had not expected this fellow to see through his cultivation realm at a single glance, but on the surface, he replied politely, "I only just broke through recently. How could I possibly compare to you senior brothers?"

"Hhahahaha... Originally I only came to watch the show, but it turns out you're much more interesting than I imagined. If you have free time in the future, feel free to come to my Moon-Watching Cave for a drink!"

Laughing heartily, Big Horn turned and walked away. Seeing this, the rest of the demon retainers also refrained from saying anything further and departed one after another.

However, today's farce left them with a much more intuitive understanding of Laobao, the newly appointed toad demon retainer.

Although he was a toad demon, he was a formidable character. Both his wits and his strength were truly extraordinary!

"Laobao, I will remember today's humiliation. I hope you won't fall into my hands in the future!"

One-Eye got up, looking rather disheveled, and after hurling a harsh threat at Mo Fan, he hurried away.

Mo Fan, however, did not take this defeated opponent to heart.

Being able to defeat him once meant he could defeat him countless times over!

"What kind of demon is that Big Horn?"

Mo Fan turned his head and looked toward He Feifei.

"A rhinoceros demon. He isn't a mountain-patrol retainer, but rather a personal retainer like myself. His strength among the retainers is still quite formidable," He Feifei said with a smile.

"You seem unassuming, yet you're actually this formidable. It really refreshes my understanding of you."

"To be honest, I'm starting to appreciate you a bit. However, I'm feeling rather sleepy right now. Would you like to come to my cave and sleep together?" He Feifei's lovely eyes flickered as she looked at Mo Fan.

"So direct?"

Mo Fan was speechless inwardly, but on the surface, he chuckled awkwardly, "I'm quite tired as well, but I'm not really used to sleeping in another demon's cave."

"In that case, I'll be leaving then. But my cave is always open to Retainer Laobao, oh!"

He Feifei cast a flirtatious wink at Mo Fan, her hands shifting into her true form as they transformed into a pair of wings, and soared directly into the sky.

Watching the departing graceful figure, Mo Fan couldn't help but touch his nose.

"Pity that He Feifei isn't a swan demon, otherwise I'd definitely have to taste what that's like!"
