Wait a minute, where is my master?

"Little Taoist, you've asked the right person,"

"To avoid disturbance, Wu Mingyuan usually cultivates in seclusion within a remote part of this mountain. He thinks he's well-hidden, but he couldn't fool my nose."

Previously, Mr. Bai had considered rebelling against the unfair treatment by secretly attacking Wu Mingyuan with a dark brick, but after weighing the pros and cons, he ultimately abandoned the idea.

"Then Uncle, please lead the way. I would like to meet this Origin Delegate of the Demon Realm."

"Little Taoist, there's no need for formalities; come on… I'll take you there directly,"

Having said that, the burly man took the lead, stepping toward the east. But the next second, he suddenly turned back and instructed Xue Yi.

"Second, go to the peak and bring down the Old Priest and the others, and for the time being, stop them from cultivating. Also, pass down the clan order, from now on, Zhong Fei's name will be changed to Little White."

"Yes, Big Brother."

While agreeing, Xue Yi gave an oddly expressive glance at Jin Xu, who also looked perplexed.

Then he put his fingers together, flicked upwards, and stepped onto the unsheathed transparent flying sword behind him, heading for the summit of West Pole Peak.

The group of little Taoists,

under the guidance of Little White's father, crossed two stone paths and leaped over three hanging iron chains, finally arriving on a plateau on the cliffside after descending a gigantic fissure.

This plateau was exceptionally smooth and neat, and on the side facing the cliff wall, a similarly spotless Black Xuan Stone Gate stood tightly sealed.

"Strange, he typically cultivates here for peace and quiet, but he's not here today?"

As the burly man spoke, his nostrils flared slightly, clearly not detecting Wu Mingyuan's scent inside the mountain.

"Never mind, Uncle, just describe his appearance to me."

Seeing no one was found, the little Taoist planned to use his Spiritual Sense to search.

Without further ado, Little White's father spoke, his eyes reflecting the memory.

"He has a handsome face with a somewhat demonic allure, usually wearing... wait, I seem to smell him approaching."

Speaking, the burly man swiftly turned his gaze toward the left, outside the cliff.

Hearing this, Jin Xu also extended a burst of Spiritual Power in that direction.

At that moment, amongst the misty mountains, a huge raven, two zhang in length with feathers as dark as ink and a crest of flame patterns on its head, was seen flying toward them with wings spread wide.

"Ah!"

With a sudden caw from the raven's dark beak, it seemed to have spotted the group on the glossy plateau. Its steady flight quickly accelerated toward this direction with a beat of its wings.

A hundred zhang distance was closed in the blink of an eye.

The people standing before the Black Xuan Stone Gate felt a fierce wind assaulting them, which whipped their robes and messed their hair slightly.

Seeing this, Little White's father frowned at the wing-flapping raven with displeasure in his tiger-like eyes.

With a wave of his large hand, a palpable Frost Ice Spiritual Power burst forth, effectively blocking the wind outside the stone wall.

"Xue Po, instead of properly leading your little wolves to cultivate on the mountain top, what are you doing at my temporary cave?"

The huge Fire Crow let out a sharp voice that covertly included sonic attack techniques, which immediately shattered the barrier of Frost Ice Spiritual Power that Mr. Bai had created.

"The conflict between the two clans seems deep, and this Delegate acts with no reservations at all,"

Upon seeing this, Jin Xu inwardly commented while golden spiritual power spread from his feet.

"Wu Mingyuan, you come here. I've got serious business with you today!"

Seeing the barrier he had set up shattered, Mr. Bai's tiger-like eyes instantly bulged round with fury.

As he spoke, he actually stomped, shattering a part of the stone platform beneath him, and leapt towards the gigantic Fire Crow in front of him.

In mid-air, Mr. Bai's arms quickly condensed two massive arms from Frost Ice Spiritual Power and grabbed at the trembling wings of the Fire Crow in front of him.

"Bastard, Xue Po, your recklessness on normal days is one thing, but now you even dare to lay a hand on a member of the Origin Delegates, do you really want to make an enemy of the entire Demon Realm!?"

The giant Fire Crow chastised loudly, then the originally pitch-black feathers on its arms emitted a dark red glow.

The next moment.

Its wings seemed like two freshly forged blades from the furnace, merely waving gently in place, and they sliced the Frost Ice arms conjured by Little White's father into two pieces.

On the stone platform, the little Taoist who had just formed a new barrier in front of him with golden spiritual power, couldn't help but inwardly criticize upon hearing what the Fire Crow said.

"What a grand accusation to level."

Afterward, he fixed his gaze on those huge wings that were distorting the air slightly with their heat, gave his eyes a roll, and the corners of his mouth suddenly revealed a slightly wicked smile.

"Roar!"

Seeing that his attack had not been effective, Mr. Bai let out a long howl towards the sky and in the blink of an eye, transformed back into his original form.

At this moment, amidst the winding mountains.

A two-zhang-long, dark red-winged gigantic Fire Crow and a tremendously fierce-looking Snow Wolf, with chillingly sharp claws and its entire body exuding a biting coldness, faced off against each other.

After a moment of fierce glaring that neither could overpower the other, the Frost Snow Wolf launched the first attack.

The Frost Snow Wolf opened its jaw wide, and a radiant white light burst forth from its mouth.

In an instant.

The side of the mountain and the rocky cliff became covered with countless icy chunks and frost flowers.

The giant Fire Crow, upon seeing this scene, snorted disdainfully and, lifting its dark red wings to shield its body, spoke with scorn.

"Heh, if this had been before I became a Delegate, Xue Po, your technique might have posed some threat to me.

"But now, times have changed... Pfft!!"

While the Fire Crow mockingly countered the fierce attack of the Frost Snow Wolf, its body honestly rose with True Sun Fire, primarily infusing it into its wings.

In Wu Mingyuan's view, this was an impeccable defense.

But the moment that mass of light mixed with endless frost cold and finely shattered snow and ice came into contact with its wings.

The Fire Crow felt as if the robust True Sun Fire inside it, like a grain bag with a poked hole, was leaking towards a certain place like water.

"Boom!"

Wu Mingyuan, taking the full brunt of Mr. Bai's attack, spewed fresh blood from his beak, which was already frozen into hard ice chips at the corners of his mouth.

And the feathers on his body, originally pitch-black, now appeared distinct and were adorned with clear, translucent white frost and ice flowers.

In front of him.

Mr. Bai, who had just completed his attack, was clearly somewhat bewildered.

He dumbly looked at the newly formed "Ice Crow," then lowered his head and muttered to himself in a thunderous "whisper".

"Hiss... When did I become so strong?"
