Chapter 137 Your Highness, the Crown Prince
They hadn't expected this black bull monster to speak, and to ask such a trendy question.
It was practically an evolved spirit.
Everyone became even more apprehensive. According to their survival experience accumulated over the years, any monster or beast that could speak human language was an extremely terrifying and formidable creature.
Could this Nine-Tailed Black Bull be such a terrifying entity?!
Everyone's faces turned pale.
Daoist Bai He's heart also pounded wildly. He hurriedly replied, "Immeasurable Heavenly Lord, this humble Daoist has played Honor of Kings, but that was sixty years ago. Back then, this humble Daoist was at the Platinum rank. I was quite skilled with Sun Wukong and also played Daji well, but I couldn't get a feel for Angela..."
He answered the black bull monster's question, trying not to provoke it.
The Nine-Tailed Black Bull laughed heartily upon hearing this. He stood on his hind legs and pointed at Daoist Bai He with his front hooves, saying, "Daoists play Honor of Kings too? But you're too noob! I'm better than you. I'm at the Diamond rank. I play Angela the best. I even have a badge; I'm ranked eighth in Xi Chuan Town, hehehe."
He mentioned Xi Chuan Town, and everyone's eyes lit up.
Daoist Bai He quickly asked, "You know Xi Chuan Town?"
"Of course, I'm from Xi Chuan Town!"
"Then can you take us to Xi Chuan Town? We want to go to Xi Chuan Town!"
"Alright! Follow me!"
The Nine-Tailed Black Bull turned around, actually acting as if he were leading the way. He was very enthusiastic, but Daoist Bai He behind him suddenly swung his snake scale and smashed it down with a "clang!" The Nine-Tailed Black Bull cried out in agony, his head bleeding and he fainted on the spot.
Daoist Bai He picked up the snake scale and grinned:
"Immeasurable Heavenly Lord, no matter how cunning and powerful this black bull monster is, how could this humble monk fall for his trick of talking about Honor of Kings? With that IQ, could his Angela really be ranked eighth in Xi Chuan Town? He was clearly lying to me."
He had a smug look of having seen through the truth.
Master Yuan Kong and the Black Hand Boxing King both gave him a thumbs up and praised, "As expected of Daoist Bai He, insightful observation and analysis of the truth, awesome!"
Han Feng, Zhang Fu, and the others behind him also smiled and shouted, "Awesome! Daoist, you're the best."
Daoist Bai He chuckled and led everyone on their way.
Some suggested killing the black bull and eating its meat, while others said that eating meat would take too much time, and they should just cut off its bullwhip and take it away as it would be very nutritious.
This was Zhang Wu speaking.
But Daoist Bai He scolded him. Although the black bull monster was knocked unconscious, it could wake up at any time. It was best to stay away from such a dangerous monster as soon as possible.
Zhang Fu shouted loudly, "If you all want to eat beef, I'll have my second uncle treat everyone when we get to Xi Chuan Town. Of course, I only want to eat chicken."
Everyone laughed and quickened their pace, arriving at the Misty Forest. They saw huge ancient trees that took dozens or even hundreds of people to encircle, trees that had grown for who knows how many years. Everyone was shocked and stunned.
The ground was covered with a thick layer of decaying leaves. Green old sandalwood was spread across the bark like a carpet.
The further they went, the more humid and gloomy the forest became. Snow gradually appeared on the treetops. The wind blew through the forest, and the snow fell with a rustling sound, as if it were snowing.
"I feel like we've entered winter," Han Feng said, his eyes warily scanning the dark forest. In theory, such an ancient and primitive forest must be full of poisonous insects and fierce beasts.
However, the forest was deathly silent.
There was no sound of insects chirping, nor any sign of monsters or beasts. The surroundings were eerily quiet, with only the sound of snow falling from the treetops and the sound of everyone stepping on the snow and deadwood.
"Pick up the pace, don't stop, and be vigilant!"
Daoist Bai He whispered, reminding everyone not to be careless. They walked deeper and deeper, and the forest ahead was shrouded in mist. The mist was very heavy, making their skin crawl, and was extremely uncomfortable.
"Ah!"
Someone suddenly screamed, startling everyone. They looked over and found that it was the unlucky guy who had been bitten by a poisonous snake earlier.
He covered his pants with his hands, his face full of excitement and disbelief.
"What's wrong?" The Black Hand Boxing King walked over and asked sternly. His tone wasn't very good, because this guy's screaming in this strange forest might attract unknown dangers.
But he said shyly and excitedly, "Boxing King Master, I swear you might not believe me, but my treasure seems to have grown back!"
"Hmm?!"
"You don't believe me? Come here, I'll show you!"
He dragged the Black Hand Boxing King to the other side of a large tree. There was a rustling sound, as if he were taking off his clothes. After a moment, there was a cry of surprise.
"Damn, it really grew back. How is that possible?"
It was the Black Hand Boxing King's voice.
Everyone was curious and all went over to take a look, but the unlucky guy had already zipped up his pants, with a smug and happy smile on his face. Several women were disappointed.
The Black Hand Boxing King nodded and said, "That's right. I cut it off very cleanly before to prevent him from being poisoned, but now it's grown back, and it's as big as a weight."
"That's incredible! Why is this happening?"
His eyes were full of shock.
At this time, some people in the team also discovered that their wounds were healing. After the mist merged into their skin, the scars disappeared instantly.
Such a strange scene made everyone exclaim in surprise.
"Could this mist be immortal mist?"
Someone boldly guessed. Han Feng hurriedly swallowed large mouthfuls, wanting to break through the bottleneck of the half-step grandmaster, but it had no effect. He was disappointed.
Daoist Bai He grabbed a handful of mist and looked at it for a long time, but found nothing unusual. He only felt that the mist was gloomy and cold, very strange, and it was not comfortable on the skin. He did not believe that it was immortal mist.
"Hurry up, leave this forest, don't delay here for too long."
He decisively led the team forward.
Passing through the heavy mist and walking on the snow, they gradually discovered some footprints left in the snow, but they were not human footprints, but animal paw prints.
Each one was more than ten meters long, very dense, and there were obviously more than one monster, of various kinds.
Everyone was so scared that they didn't dare to breathe loudly, but the forest was deathly silent, and they couldn't see any monsters. The trees in front gradually thinned out, and they could already see the light outside.
The fog was very thick, and the line of sight was hazy, but everyone was overjoyed and quickened their pace out of the forest.
In front of them was a wilderness. It was sleeting in the sky, and the air was even colder. Several people with lower strength sneezed and their noses dripped.
The snow on the ground was knee-deep, making it difficult to walk, but in the mist, the shadow of the city ahead was vaguely visible.
"It's Snake King City, we've arrived!"
Wu Yue in the team shouted excitedly, and everyone cheered, but in the mist ahead, there was a rumbling sound.
It was as if a huge creature was rushing towards them. The sound was mixed, like thousands of troops galloping, and the ground was shaking. A hurricane swept across the wilderness, causing snowflakes to fly.
Everyone was so scared that they quickly prostrated themselves on the snow to hide.
However.
The faces of the three grandmaster guardians, Daoist Bai He, Master Yuan Kong, and the Black Hand Boxing King, changed drastically, because the other party seemed to have discovered them and was coming in their direction.
Suddenly, a fishy wind rolled up snowflakes, and a suffocating aura pressed down from the sky.

Chapter 2
Everyone was frightened and their faces turned pale, because the aura of the arriving creatures was very terrifying, and each of them was tall, reaching hundreds of meters, casting a large shadow and putting immense pressure on them. They manifested from the mist.
The leader was a yellow-haired dog, with an evil aura all over its body.
However, it was riding a strange horse that was also a hundred meters tall.
A dog riding a horse,
What a strange combination, but at this moment it showed a rough, primitive and violent scene.
Both were clad in snake scale armor, with only their eyes exposed. As they breathed, white mist rose from under their masks. They held a spear tens of meters long in their claws and a snake scale knife at their waist, majestic and awe-inspiring, their eyes sharp and scarlet.
Behind him, there were more than a dozen monster dogs riding other monster mounts, fully armed.
Faced with such a strange and terrifying "cavalry" monster combination, Daoist Bai He and others were filled with fear and despair.
Compared with this group of monsters, the Nine-Tailed Black Bull they had seen before was nothing more than a small fry, not even on the same level.
Moreover, the other party was obviously well-trained, full of murderous intent, and not easy to deal with.
"Great monster sirs, I I I this humble Daoist..." Daoist Bai He wanted to say something, but his mouth was stammering so badly that he couldn't even say a word.
Behind him, Zhang Fu shouted loudly, "Hello, heroes, are you doing well? Can you speak? Have you seen my second uncle? My second uncle loves to eat chicken the most. He's in Xi Chuan Town."
Zhang Fu was senile and always liked to "act foolish," asking people where his second uncle was.
But at this moment,
This sudden sound broke the silence, scaring everyone pale and despairing. Some people looked at Zhang Fu with hatred, thinking that Zhang Fu's words might anger this group of cavalry monsters.
However.
Unexpectedly, the leading yellow-haired dog was not angry. A majestic and cold voice came from under the mask: "This is Xi Chuan Town, but the town is long gone. Now there is only the Ten Thousand Monster Kingdom and our great and invincible Snake King Majesty!"
Everyone was surprised and bewildered.
They had never heard of the Ten Thousand Monster Kingdom, and they didn't know who the Snake King Majesty was.
But the dog monster riding the horse in front of them could not only speak human language like the Nine-Tailed Black Bull before, but also patiently answered Zhang Fu's question without attacking them. Everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
At the same time, they wondered, when did these monsters become so talkative?
Daoist Bai He plucked up his courage and asked, "May I ask this dog... oh no, this Great General, what is your honorable surname and how should we address you?"
He organized his words, carefully and respectfully.
The yellow-haired dog laughed and said, "I'm not a great general. My name is Huang An. I am the East Depot Embroidered Uniform Guard's chiliarch. I heard the movement here just now and thought that the Divine Dragon Sect and the War Wolf Regiment's rebels were appearing, so I came to investigate."
Everyone listened with their mouths wide open, dizzy and not understanding what the other party was saying at all.
They didn't seem to be on the same wavelength, and the other party actually claimed to be an Embroidered Uniform Guard chiliarch.
Daoist Bai He cupped his hands and said, "So it's Chiliarch Sir, my respects, we are here to Xi Chuan Town to find relatives and friends."
Afraid that Huang An would not believe him, he hurriedly took out the snake scale.
Unexpectedly, when Huang An and others saw the snake scale, they were so frightened that they all flipped off their mounts, knelt on one knee, raised their fists to their chests towards the snake scale, and shouted, "The Snake King is immortal, the Snake King is undying, the Snake King is invincible!"
The group of subordinates behind him also shouted.
Daoist Bai He and others were taken aback by this posture, and they all hurriedly knelt on the ground, learning from Huang An and others to raise their fists to their chests and shouted, "The Snake King is immortal, the Snake King is undying, the Snake King is invincible!"
The atmosphere seemed to be very good, but an inappropriate voice sounded again: "The problem is, where is my second uncle? I want to find my second uncle!"
Everyone gritted their teeth angrily, with black lines on their faces. Zhang Wu hurriedly covered Zhang Fu's mouth.
Huang An laughed and asked, "Old man, what is your second uncle's name and surname?" He paused for a moment, his eyes filled with desolation and sadness, "You have to be mentally prepared. Xi Chuan Town suffered a great disaster back then. The evil strange mist sealed everything, so Xi Chuan Town couldn't get out or in, it was isolated from the world, and many terrible things happened. Many people died."
He looked at Zhang Fu with scarlet eyes and said, "Maybe your second uncle is dead too."
Zhang Fu's face turned red when he heard this, and he was very excited. He broke free from Zhang Wu's hand and roared hysterically, "No! My second uncle will never die, he hasn't eaten my roast chicken yet, how could he die? Wuwuwu~"
He shouted and cried, pounding his chest and stomping his feet in the snow, wailing, and his aura was actually fading quickly, as if he were about to die.
Everyone was taken aback.
Huang An walked over quickly, drew his snake scale knife from his waist, and "swish" he slashed his claw arm. Fresh blood fell like raindrops and fell into Zhang Fu's mouth.
He had consumed too much of the Demon King's flesh and blood, and his body had long evolved extraordinarily. His blood had a strange fragrance and was a real tonic.
At this moment, the blood fell into Zhang Fu's mouth, and Zhang Fu's withered life and dying aura quickly recovered, and a vigorous vitality appeared on his body.
Everyone stared with wide eyes in surprise.
Han Feng next to him breathed rapidly, his eyes shining, looking at the blood in the snow on the ground, he slobbered wildly. If he had this blood, he could definitely break through the bottleneck of the half-step grandmaster and advance to become a true grandmaster guardian.
Daoist Bai He's eyes were bright, and he bowed deeply and said, "Thank you, Chiliarch Sir, for your life-saving grace!"
Zhang Wu cried with joy when he saw that his father, Zhang Fu, had been saved, and knelt down and kowtowed to Huang An: "Thank you, Lord Huang, thank you, Chiliarch Sir..."
Huang An smiled and waved his claw, "I usually follow Commander Sir to kill people like hemp, but today I actually saved a person, hehe~"
He smiled mockingly, feeling that he had finally done a good deed, and was in a good mood.
Zhang Fu woke up leisurely, grateful and said, "Thank you, Chiliarch Sir, for saving my life. I have nothing to repay you, when I find my second uncle, I will let him treat you to chicken."
Huang An was amused, laughed a few times, and asked curiously, "Old man, you keep talking about your second uncle, I'm very curious, what is your second uncle's name?"
He had asked just now, but the old man was too excited and almost died on the spot.
Zhang Fu came back to his senses, stretched his arms and legs, feeling that he was full of energy and full of strength, and praised it. Zhang Wu said enviously, "Congratulations, Dad, you have finally become a cultivator, and now you are in the first stage of martial arts, the Body Refining Stage!"
Zhang Fu didn't care, he was more concerned about his second uncle. When he heard Huang An's question, he hurriedly said, "My second uncle's surname is Zhang, and his given name is Ji, Zhang Ji, does this respected Chiliarch Sir know him?"
His face was full of anticipation.
Huang An was just asking casually, but he didn't expect the other party to suddenly say the words "Zhang Ji", which frightened him on the spot. The subordinates behind him also gasped and their expressions changed drastically.
Everyone noticed something was wrong. Could it be that Zhang Fu's old man's second uncle had something unusual about him?
Huang An's scarlet eyes became stern, and he stared at Zhang Fu and asked, "Old man, say it again, what is your second uncle's name?"
"Zhang Ji!"
"What is the proof?"
"Photos as proof!"
He trembled and took out his wallet, and took out a yellowed photo from it. In the photo, a young man was holding a child and eating chicken, with a sunny and handsome smile on his face.
This was a very ordinary photo, but Huang An only glanced at it, and then knelt down in surprise and fear, and all the subordinates behind him also knelt on the ground.
"So it's the arrival of His Highness the Crown Prince, your subordinate's eyes did not recognize Mount Tai, I hope His Highness the Crown Prince will forgive me!"
Huang An knelt and pleaded guilty.
Zhang Fu held the photo in his hand and looked around blankly, who is His Highness the Crown Prince? Where is it?
Zhang Wu poked Zhang Fu's waist with his finger, and whispered in his ear with some disbelief, "Dad, he seems to be talking about you, saying that you are His Highness the Crown Prince."
The surrounding Daoist Bai He and others also nodded, they were also a little confused.
But Zhang Fu waved his hand and shook his head and said, "No, no, this is impossible!"
"Chiliarch Sir, you can't recognize the wrong person, how can I, an old man, be His Highness the Crown Prince!"
Huang An replied respectfully, "Your second uncle is His Majesty the Snake King of our Ten Thousand Monster Kingdom, so, according to seniority, aren't you His Highness the Crown Prince?"
