The Whale in the Mountains

Chapter 653 Cautious Yao Venerate

Chapter 254 Is Mom Going to be Saved?

Was his mother about to be saved?

Hearing this, Chen Xiao frowned. Li Qin was in trouble?

"What's wrong with your mom?"

"The Demon Reverend captured my mom to threaten me, Dad!"

When Xiao Hei called Chen Xiao "Dad" by himself, Chen Xiao didn't feel anything.

But when the terms "Dad" and "Mom" appeared in the same sentence, connecting Chen Xiao and Li Qin, Chen Xiao felt that things were a little strange…

But at this moment, this matter was obviously not that important.

Li Qin being captured was the important thing.

"Tell me in detail, what exactly is going on? What happened after you and your mom left me?"

Chen Xiao asked.

"It's like this, Dad…"

Xiao Hei started with this sentence, and Chen Xiao's face instantly darkened. He forcibly suppressed the urge to interrupt Xiao Hei and listened to him continue.

It turned out that after Li Qin left Chen Xiao's house with Xiao Hei, they began to wander the martial world.

With the strength of the two of them, they naturally wouldn't be bullied.

In the process of wandering the martial world, they also acted chivalrously and robbed the rich to help the poor… Okay, although the original intention was just to get some travel expenses for themselves.

But for the extra, they really distributed it to the poor.

However, good times don't last long. Such a carefree and happy life in the martial world didn't last long before they were targeted.

To be precise, it was a demon, and a powerful one at that.

The Demon Reverend has a very high status in the demon cultivation world, and it is no exaggeration to say that he leads all demons.

And he took a fancy to the aptitude and talent of the spirit fox Xiao Hei, and insisted on recognizing him as his adopted son.

At that time, Xiao Hei's intelligence had just begun to develop.

His level of understanding was already comparable to that of a teenager, so he naturally wouldn't recognize this kind of demon as his godfather.

Even though they were essentially the same species…

The Demon Reverend captured Li Qin and Xiao Hei, and even threatened Xiao Hei with Li Qin's life, demanding that Xiao Hei acknowledge him.

Xiao Hei had no choice but to submit and recognize the Demon Reverend as his godfather in order to save Li Qin's life.

To be fair, the Demon Reverend treated Xiao Hei quite well, not only helping him develop his intelligence but also feeding him a lot of elixirs.

This is also the main reason why Xiao Hei was able to advance to the Yuanying realm in such a short period of time.

However, while the Demon Reverend treated Xiao Hei very well on the one hand, he was also constantly on guard against Xiao Hei on the other hand.

Not only did he continue to imprison Li Qin, preventing Xiao Hei from meeting her, but the Demon Reverend also concealed many affairs within the demon cultivation world from Xiao Hei.

In short, the Demon Reverend felt that the time was still short and did not regard Xiao Hei as one of his own.

And his precaution was not without reason, because from the beginning to the end, Xiao Hei had never truly accepted this godfather in his heart.

All he did was to rescue Li Qin.

Until this time, when the Demon Reverend sent Xiao Hei, Hong Guan, Ju Jiao, and other demon cultivators to carry out a mission, Xiao Hei immediately thought of this way to ask his dad for help.

After hearing this, Chen Xiao understood.

The mission on the surface was to cause trouble in human cities to help the demons in the Northern Border alleviate pressure, but in reality, it was very likely just a test for Xiao Hei.

And the result was obvious. Xiao Hei did not pass this test.

Of course, Xiao Hei didn't care about this.

Chen Xiao asked Xiao Hei some more questions and found that the Demon Reverend was indeed very strict in his precautions against Xiao Hei.

Because Xiao Hei knew very little information about the group of demon cultivators, and he didn't even know where their headquarters were.

He only knew that they were nomads, disguised as humans, and had strongholds in many places.

As for their strength, it was difficult to judge whether they were strong or not.

Taking Hong Guan and Ju Jiao as examples, both of them were in the Yuanying realm, and their strength within the demon cultivation world could be considered slightly above average.

This strength, placed in the Immortal Hidden World, could only be considered at the bottom.

But according to Xiao Hei's description, the Demon Reverend's own strength was very strong, extremely strong… He could kill Yuanying stage demon cultivators with just a glance.

As for how strong he was, Xiao Hei couldn't say, as it was beyond his realm of understanding.

"Since the Demon Reverend is as strong as you say, do you still think I have a chance to rescue your mom?"

Chen Xiao asked.

"Of course, Dad is the most powerful person in the world, there is nothing Dad can't do!"

Xiao Hei said seriously.

He had been acting very mature before, but in front of Chen Xiao, he seemed to have returned to his elementary school state.

Chen Xiao was speechless.

After a moment, he said, "You're right about that, there's nothing Dad can't do… But can you tell me, where is that Demon Reverend?"

Xiao Hei shook his head, "I don't know where he is either. He has three burrows for a cunning rabbit and is very cunning. Basically, he won't go to a place twice after he's been there once."

"Then how do you contact him?"

"We don't contact him, we wait for him to contact us."

"…"

Chen Xiao was speechless. This Demon Reverend was too cautious.

"In that case, we have no way to find him."

"It's not like there isn't, Dad, I don't know if you've heard, but there is a group of demons constantly invading the Northern Border!"

"Hmm? That's right, what do you know about this matter? Tell me quickly!"

Seeing Chen Xiao's eager look, Xiao Hei coughed twice to clear his throat.

"Ahem, it's not really inside information. I only know that the demon cultivator who is leading this activity is Bai Guangda, one of the four demon kings under the Demon Reverend. That guy is a transformed white bear, and he is brutal by nature… Very scary."

The last four words Xiao Hei added seemed to recall some unbearable memories.

"Oh? What is the cultivation level and strength of that white bear?"

Chen Xiao asked.

"He is a Huashen realm demon cultivator. Dad, can you handle it?"

Xiao Hei asked tentatively.

"Just a mere Huashen realm, I can slap him to death!"

Chen Xiao said casually.

"Dad is mighty, as expected of my dad!"

Xiao Hei was triumphant.

"What is their purpose in invading the Northern Border?"

Chen Xiao asked again.

"I don't know."

Xiao Hei shook his head.

"…"

Chen Xiao was speechless again. You really don't know anything useful!

But it doesn't matter, if Xiao Hei doesn't know, then Bai Guangda probably knows. He just needs to catch that guy and ask him.

If he doesn't tell, he'll break all his bear teeth!

After making up his mind, Chen Xiao decided to go to the Northern Border immediately.

And he also promised Luo Hao to help rescue Chi Hao, so he might as well do it together.

After deciding, Chen Xiao suddenly said, "By the way, Xiao Hei, can I discuss something with you? Can you not call me Dad in the future?"

"Why, Dad?"

Xiao Hei asked blankly.

"I don't want people to misunderstand my relationship with your mom."

Chen Xiao explained.

Xiao Hei seemed to understand but didn't really, and mumbled blankly, "But if I don't call you Dad, what should I call you…"

Thinking about it, his eyes suddenly lit up, "I got it, I know what to call you!"

"Call me what?"

Chen Xiao hadn't even thought about what to call him yet, but he didn't expect Xiao Hei to think of it so quickly.

"I'll just call you Father!"

Xiao Hei looked very clever, waiting for Chen Xiao's praise…
