Qiongqi was completely stunned.

Staring at Chen Huaian's face for a long time, it finally tremblingly managed to squeeze out a sentence.

"You... please speak..."

"Now that's more like it~" The smile on Chen Huaian's face became even more "nuclear-friendly."

He patted Qiongqi's head and said calmly, "This Venerable One is not an Ascender."

"This... this humble demon already knows that."

Qiongqi was absolutely certain about this point.

What kind of Ascender could be this badass?

It weakly glanced at Lin Fan.

Putting aside this monster, even the Nascent Soul cultivator in front of him wasn't normal.

What normal Ascender had this kind of combat power?

And there was definitely no such exquisite sword technique.

Chen Huaian clearly had some special inheritance.

No wonder he claimed to be the Dragon Soul inheritor—it believed him now.

Chen Huaian backhandedly slapped Qiongqi across the face, leaving Qiongqi completely dumbfounded, "You motherfucker, didn't you just say you didn't care who This Venerable One was? Why do you believe me now? What were you doing when I told you to stop earlier? Huh? You only feel comfortable after getting beaten up, are you some kind of masochist?"

Qiongqi felt like crying but had no tears, not daring to speak.

It was just used to this.

In the past, Ascenders from the Great Thunder Temple and other sects often charged in.

There were also those pretending to be Dragon Soul inheritors, but they were all exposed and killed by it.

Besides, its mission was to wait for Taotie to come.

The Dragon Soul inheritor was a matter for the auspicious beast faction—what did it have to do with fierce beasts like it?

Not attacking when encountering one was already being very polite.

The key point was that it never encountered any—they were all old bald donkeys.

These old bald donkeys were also idiots—dragons were inherently lustful, and Dragon Soul inheritors were all desperate perverts in heat, could they possibly be monks?

Over time, it became too lazy to distinguish.

Any human entering the Demon Sealing Pagoda would be treated as an Ascender.

The White Tiger's Physical Shell would go first, and if the White Tiger's Physical Shell couldn't handle it, it would step in.

Or sometimes when it was in the mood, it would even rush to fight first.

This was why when Chen Huaian entered, it indiscriminately joined the White Tiger's Physical Shell in fiercely attacking Chen Huaian. As for why it continued attacking fiercely even after Chen Huaian explained and demonstrated his strength...

Very simple...

It had gone berserk with killing intent.

It was a fierce beast to begin with.

Not having a brain when in a bloodlusted state was quite reasonable, right?

But Qiongqi had a brain now.

"Sorry, Dragon Soul inheritor, please spare this humble demon's life." Qiongqi begged humbly for mercy: "This humble demon still has a mission... I still need to wait for His Lordship Taotie to come fuse with this humble demon's Demonic Soul."

Chen Huaian narrowed his eyes and sneered coldly: "Haven't you sensed a trace of Taotie's host essence within you?

To put it bluntly, This Venerable One came here today also to revive Taotie's host body. Taking your Demonic Soul is also to collect the essence of Taotie's host body, ultimately completing the fusion."

"Taotie... host body?" Qiongqi blinked in confusion: "What's on this humble demon is a strand of essence separated by His Lordship Taotie, not the essence of Taotie's host body."

"What?" Chen Huaian was stunned, then suddenly realized.

Muscle Tyrant might not be a demon beast with Taotie bloodline.

Nor was he Taotie's host body—was it possible that...

Muscle Tyrant was Taotie himself.

The reason he was considered a host body was only because he hadn't returned to his peak strength yet.

Hadn't fused with the essences of various fierce beasts?!

The more he thought about it, the more possible it seemed, the more it felt like the truth.

Then Muscle Tyrant was also carrying a mission.

He had always been thinking about whether he could rely on Muscle Tyrant to find Taotie's true form. Because of the Ancestral Dragon's plan, he and Taotie, who also carried a mission, could be said to share both glory and disgrace. To put it bluntly, Taotie was his shield.

When the Well of Heaven fully opens.

Taotie would attract all the attention for him, allowing his identity as the Dragon Soul inheritor to remain hidden. Until the day they faced the Celestial God Clan directly, when the dagger would be drawn from the map scroll.

So Taotie had been by his side all along.

It was just because Muscle Tyrant was too weak.

That he never connected Muscle Tyrant with Taotie, the king of ancient fierce beasts.

And the evaluation of Muscle Tyrant in the Electronic Girlfriend's character panel had also confused his judgment.

—Taotie host body.

Who would have known that Taotie host body meant Taotie himself.

Could these two be the same thing?!

Now thinking about it, they really were the same thing.

He had just misunderstood.

He thought Muscle Tyrant was Taotie's container, and that after Taotie appeared, Muscle Tyrant would become the real Taotie.

But the actual situation was that the container was the former Little Black cat, and Muscle Tyrant was Taotie—he had already entered the container long ago, just hadn't fully grown up yet.

"This Venerable One didn't understand clearly."

Chen Huaian's expression became more serious as he frowned and said: "The reason you have Taotie's essence isn't some kind of guidance or inheritance, but because Taotie's container was possessed by a Demon Immortal's avatar.

To escape, Taotie could only self-destruct his Demonic Soul, scattering his Demonic Soul across heaven and earth, with most of it entering you fierce beasts."

Upon hearing this, Qiongqi's eyes widened.

Its crimson pupils filled with killing intent and rage.

"Who! Who dares harm our king! I will definitely make sure they die a miserable death!"

Chen Huaian curled his lips at Qiongqi's angry appearance.

Give me a break.

This little brother isn't that strong either.

Can't beat Lin Fan, and probably can't handle Chen Niu either.

Chen Niu, having experienced reincarnation, must have clever methods to deal with Qiongqi.

Perhaps without much effort, Qiongqi's Fierce Beast essence would be taken away.

Seeing Chen Huaian remain silent.

Qiongqi seemed to also remember its embarrassing situation of only having a head left.

After staying silent for a while, it cautiously asked: "Um, senior, could you heal this humble demon's injuries? This humble demon will immediately go take revenge for His Lordship Taotie, and senior can come with this humble demon..."

"You're dreaming." Chen Huaian took out the Purple Gold Gourd, his face cold: "This Venerable One naturally has a way to revive Taotie, so stop running around everywhere!"

"Qiongqi! This Venerable One calls your name—dare you answer?!"

Looking at the opening of the Purple Gold Gourd.

Qiongqi instinctively made a "quack" sound.

The next second, a terrifying suction force that made it feel like its soul was being torn away came.

With almost no chance to resist, its remaining demon body and essence were sucked into the gourd.

"So simple?!" Chen Huaian looked surprised as he shook the gourd.

If he had known this gourd was so awesome, why would he have fought Qiongqi at all? He could have just used the gourd to capture Qiongqi from the start!

"Ancestor, it's not that easy." Lin Fan looked at the gourd in Chen Huaian's hand and shook his head: "This gourd mainly has nurturing and trapping effects—it works fine for capturing ordinary monsters.

But for something like what you just captured, if it hadn't been beaten by this junior until only its head remained, it could have completely escaped the gourd's suction force. However..."

Lin Fan paused, clicking his tongue in wonder: "If this junior isn't mistaken, although the gourd's suction isn't great, once a monster is captured inside, it can never come out again, no matter how powerful it is. So—"

He and Chen Huaian exchanged glances.

Both saw a hint of cunning and slyness in each other's eyes.

If they tried openly, they might not be able to capture monsters.

But they could ambush them...

Like using a glass cover to catch flies—cover the fly's head when it's not paying attention.

Could the fly still escape?!
