Seeing the little round figure standing atop Xiaoyun Peak, Bai Chen smiled faintly.

"Little Phoenix, you’ve just hatched and don’t yet understand the deceitfulness of human hearts. Humans are the most despicable and lowly race. You are a divine beast, born noble… how can you stoop to keeping company with such trash?!"

Bai Chen stretched out his hand toward Mingting with a smile: "You and I are of the same kind. Come, return to the demonic beast race with me!"

Bai Chen's words aroused public anger.

Demons and demonic beasts had always looked down on humans with an air of superiority, treating them as slaves or even food.

Now, with Bai Chen repeatedly calling them ‘lowly’, every member of Zhenshan Sect, from top to bottom, was so furious they gripped their weapons tightly.

"Hahaha!"

Bai Chen’s words made Mingting burst into laughter.

The little child clutched his stomach, laughing so hard that tears streamed down his face.

"Are you really the Fox King? How can you be so uncultured? Have you ever even read a book?"

Mingting wiped away his tears, his Phoenix eyes gleaming with disdain as he looked at Bai Chen.

"The books say, 'Heaven and Earth are ruthless; they treat all beings as straw dogs.'. Since in the eyes of Heaven and Earth, we’re all just dogs, who’s to say which is nobler? Just because you have more fur, does that make you a better dog?" (T/N: It’s a saying from the Daoist classic, ‘Dao De Jing’, meaning that in the eyes of the universe, all creatures are equal and insignificant.)

Hearing this, Le Qing's legs nearly gave out, and he almost fell from the sky.

‘Kid, that’s not how that saying is supposed to be interpreted!!!’

Sect Master Wu glanced around angrily, "Who taught Elder Feng this nonsense? Who? Report to the Discipline Hall for punishment later!" (T/N: Feng is from Fenghuang, which means Phoenix.)

‘A perfectly good child, ruined by your teachings!’

When he heard Mingting lump him in with dogs, Bai Chen, was so furious he nearly exploded, his handsome face instantly turning cold.

"Little Phoenix, don’t refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit!"

‘A mere fledgling, yet so sharp-tongued, he must have been corrupted by humans.’

"How dare you!"

The once innocent and playful little child suddenly radiated an overwhelming aura.

"You, a half-breed fox, dare speak to me like this? Since you insist on determining status by bloodline, then let’s play by the rules of bloodline! Today, unless you kowtow three times and bow nine times in apology, you won’t be leaving with just one tail!"

The human race does not distinguish by bloodline, so they couldn’t sense the oppressive majesty emanating from Mingting.

On the contrary, Bai Chen, as a demonic beast, felt as if a giant bell had struck his chest, the reverberations shaking his very core.

The Phoenix was a divine beast of ultimate Yang and purity, while he was merely an eight-tailed fox. Unless he awakened the bloodline of his nine-tailed ancestors, he truly had no way to oppose the Little Phoenix.

"Good! You actually side with humans. The dignified Phoenix is actually reduced to being a human’s lackey! How admirable…"

Bai Chen's eyes flashed with a fierce light, clearly marking Mingting as an enemy.

"Le Qing, Bai Chen's vital point is in his belly button. This fox reeks so much he’s polluting Zhenshan Sect’s air. Take two of his tails and hang them at the mountain gate as a warning to others."

The little child’s voice remained soft and youthful, but his words carried a strange resonance. Le Qing’s eyes lit up and he was reminded of Mingting's mind reading ability.

‘At a critical moment, this mind reading skill was incredibly useful!’

‘Fortunately, the Little Phoenix who can read minds was on our side!’

"Damn bird, how did you learn my secret?"

Bai Chen was horrified.

A demonic beast’s weak point was their most vulnerable spot, something they guarded with their lives. But now, Mingting had just exposed it in front of everyone.

Bai Chen couldn’t even imagine what would happen if this news spread back to the demonic beast and demon race. His enemies would surely sharpen their blades in anticipation.

Though he might not necessarily fear them, from now on, he’d have to be constantly on guard, sleepless at night, suspicious of everyone he met. Wouldn’t he become a nervous wreck?

"Of course, the demon race leaked the information!"

Regardless of whether Bai Chen believed him or not, Mingting directly sowed discord, "If you want to fight, then fight, stop wasting time! Le Qing, use the Mountain-Suppressing Fist to hit him!"

Le Qing had been itching for action, so without hesitation, he threw a punch straight at Bai Chen.

‘Mountain-Suppressing!’

“Pfft…”

Even though Bai Chen had prepared himself, he still never expected Le Qing to be so fast. The punch sent him flying over a kilometer away.

Soon, the two were locked in a fierce battle in the sky.

"Ancestor, smash him to bits!"

"Ancestor is mighty and domineering! That fox stinks to high heaven!"

"Ancestor, skin that fox and make a scarf for the Little Phoenix!"

The disciples of Zhenshan Sect weren’t the least bit afraid. Instead, they were fired up, cheering loudly for Le Qing from below, the atmosphere lively and boisterous.

‘This was probably what a battle-hungry sect looked like! They liked to solve problems with straightforward, brute force.’

Mingting chuckled.

‘But then again, under the constant threat of demons and demonic beasts, which sect wasn’t battle-hungry? If they didn’t fight, they’d be wiped out.’

After seeing Bai Chen was no match for Le Qing, several great demons appeared nearby. Then, they besieged Le Qing and deliberately drew him further away. Mingting realized that this was a joint action.

He sent a message to Du Heng, telling him to be ready.

Before Du Heng could reply, the sky darkened.

The demons, wearing black clothes and red ribbons on their heads, chanted slogans of vengeance as they filled the sky in a dark, overwhelming mass.

Leading them was Ji Yanjun.

Unfortunately for him, Ji Yanjun had just heard Mingting’s earlier accusation. His murderous gaze locked onto the little phoenix, who was hopping around like an excited chick.

‘I already had said that this bastard was a traitor who betrayed his race, but Bai Chen still insisted on keeping this Little Phoenix alive.’

Ji Yanjun decided that after killing Du Heng, he would pinch the Little Phoenix to death, plucking his feathers one by one while he was still alive, then arrange them in a vase as decoration.

"Activate the Mountain Protection Array!"

At this time, Wu Hao had realized this was a joint scheme between the demonic beasts and the demons.

Otherwise, why would Fox King Bai Chen lure Le Qing away just as the demons conveniently appeared?

‘Weren’t they supposed to be mortal enemies?!’

Although he was furious, Wu Hao remained calm. Zhenshan Sect had faced demonic factions’ sieges many times before, so they were well-prepared.

On one side, the demons launched their assault. On the other, Ji Yanjun locked eyes with Du Heng.

"Old man, if you don’t want Zhenshan Sect to fall today, if you don’t want rivers of blood flowing through these halls, then come out and die! This Demon Lord has come for revenge… I won’t slaughter the innocent needlessly!"

"Ancestor, don't go…"

Wu Hao immediately moved to stop Du Heng, ‘This was clearly a trap. That bastard Wen An’s words must have spread, that’s why they joined forces against the Ancestor.’

"With the Mountain Protection Array, we can hold out until Ancestor Le Qing returns."

"That’s right, Ancestor! This is their conspiracy, don't fall for it!"

"Ancestor, we can hold the line!"

Everyone persuaded Du Heng to stay. They were not afraid of the demons and were willing to fight to the end, but the Ancestor couldn't get into trouble…

Even though Du Heng had long since recovered, seeing the entire sect united, without a single person backing down, he was filled with pride.

‘With a sect like this, how could we not prosper?’

"A mere Demon Lord can't harm me!"

Du Heng soared into the air.

As the Ancestor, it was his duty to protect the sect and its disciples.

"Aim for the horn on his forehead! That little bump!"

Mingting, who was familiar with the plot and knew the fatal weakness of the Supporting Male Characters, did not hesitate to share his knowledge.

“Cough…”

Ji Yanjun finally understood how Bai Chen must have felt earlier.

Demonic beasts had their vital points, and so did demons… they just called them something different. The small triangular protrusions on their foreheads, either on the sides or the center, were their greatest weaknesses.

Normally, these ‘horns’ were just slight bumps and barely noticeable. So most people assumed it was just an oddity of demon’s bone structure.

But now, Mingting had just announced the demons’ weakness to the entire world. If Du Heng hadn’t been blocking him, Ji Yanjun would’ve charged down and slaughtered the damn bird first.

"You bastard!"

Ji Yanjun  gripped his twin maces and vented all his anger on Du Heng.

"This place is too cramped. Let’s take this elsewhere!"

Earlier, Bai Chen had lured Le Qing east. Now, Du Heng flew south.

Ji Yanjun knew Du Heng was trying to protect his sect by drawing him away, but he didn’t suspect anything and gave chase.

"Ancestor Du Heng!"

The disciples of Zhenshan Sect watched with reddened eyes. They were certain Du Heng was sacrificing himself to protect the sect, and that his chances of survival were slim. Rage burned in their hearts.

"Fight them to the death!"

All of a sudden, everyone's morale soared.

However, no one noticed that Mingting had slipped through the Mountain Protection Array and chased after Du Heng.
