2 Chapter 1 Journey to the West Little Demon 1_2

Seemingly never having seen the white-furred wolf in such a state before, the crow demon instantly shook his head, "I haven't told anyone else but the two of you."

Lu Fei finally released the crow demon and said, "That's good, don't say anything more..."

The words had barely left his mouth.

"The king's calling a meeting, why are you three still dawdling?"

A menacing voice suddenly echoed.

The three demons were startled and quickly turned to see a giant bearheaded monster, over two meters tall with a bulky and muscular body, appearing at a nearby intersection. The monstrous figure fiercely stared at the three little demons, asking, "Are you eager for a beating?"

With that, the bear leader took out the dark whip from his waist with a swift movement.

"Crack..."

A spark exploded amidst the loud and piercing whip sound.

Color drained from the faces of Lu Fei, crow demon and red Pi the little pig demon. Repeatedly saying they dared not, they immediately started running towards the direction of the Great King Mountain Cave.

They ran madly till they were out of the sight of the bear leader, up to a road not far from the Great King Mountain Cave.

Watching all kinds of bizarre demons gather towards the Great King Cave.

Only then did the three little demons slow down their pace.

"Close shave..."

The crow demon finally seemed to know fear, immediately starting to pat its chest.

If not for the white-furred wolf covering his mouth just now, he might have inadvertently blurted out something that might have reached the ears of the bear leader.

The stronger one's power, the sharper their senses.

Framing the leader and the king, getting caught would be a definite death sentence.

The crow demon had this urge to share secrets, to show off, once he heard them.

He would accidentally leak out words, words that shouldn't be said.

He often regretted it, but he couldn't help it once the atmosphere got charged.

"White Wolf..."

The crow demon looked at the white-furred wolf, his companion who seemed different today, and spoke again.

"Shut up!"

Lu Fei glanced at the crow demon and said, "Let's talk about it when we get back."

"Oh..."

The more Lu Fei acted this way, the more the crow demon wanted to talk. But after being frightened by the bear leader, he dared not speak more at the moment.

Red Pi, the little pig demon with a yellow gourd on his back, kept looking at his companion, the white wolf. He also felt that the white wolf was different today.

But he couldn't tell what was different.

For a moment.

All three little demons went silent and followed the crowd of demons towards the Great King Mountain Cave.

Half an hour later.

The three little demons appeared on a winding mountain road.

The crow demon looked elated, "I told you so..."

"I said the king..."

Just as he was speaking, the crow demon, having learned his lesson, quickly covered his mouth. After making sure it was safe, he continued, "I said we would end up fighting against Snake Coil Mountain."

"Won't this be very dangerous?"

Red Pi, the little pig demon, suddenly asked.

The crow demon was taken aback, before replying, "I haven't experienced it yet, I think it would be dangerous, but it's a good thing."

"Only through fighting can we accumulate merits. Only with merits can we be rewarded by the king with treasures and food... This is the fastest way for us to improve our strength and have a chance to become as powerful as the bear leader..."

As the two little demons discussing this.

Meanwhile, Lu Fei was silent, seeming lost in thoughts.

Seeing this, the crow demon asked, "White Wolf, why aren't you talking?"

Lu Fei snapped back to reality, casually saying, "Let's hurry up. If we are late, we'd only get soup."

Hearing Lu Fei's reminder.

The two little demons immediately realized this. The crow demon shouted, "Let's hurry up..."

"If we are late, we'll starve again..."

After yelling, he bolted forward.

Red Pi, the little pig demon, then showed his surprisingly quick reflexes, inconsistent with his appearance.

As soon as Lu Fei reminded them, he had already rushed out, even slightly faster than the crow demon.

Observing the speed at which the two demons competed for food.

Lu Fei didn't find it amusing.

In Rolling Mountain, the lower-level little demons only have one meal a day provided, and starvation was a norm.

So, during lunchtime.

The lower level demons were most active.

"Gurgle..."

The hunger in his stomach made Lu Fei unable to think further. Watching the two little demons who were already a considerable distance ahead.

He simply continued to run forward.

Not much later.

When three little demons, along with some other lagging demons, arrived at their usual open-air canteen in a spacious woodland, they found it to be...

Nothing but several pots licked clean to the point that they were lying all over the place, with one even spinning around.

The surrounding area was filled with carnivorous monsters, either scoffing at them or looking on with ridicule.

There were always a great many unlucky ones who went hungry every day.

"What do we do now?"

The little pig demon, Red Pi, turned to ask the Crow Demon and Lu Fei who were beside him.

"We should go back and sleep for now..."

After his small eyes quickly darted around, the Crow monster said in a low voice, "We can come up with something else later at night..."

Under such circumstances, they would certainly have to find their own food and be self-reliant.

Soon.

The three little demons split up.

The Crow Demon and little pig Demon, Red Pi, went back to their dwelling to sleep as sleeping wouldn't make them hungry.

But Lu Fei had to continue his duty of patrolling the mountain.

He had the original host's memories in his brain.

Lu Fei patrolled the mountain following the routes in his memory.

It wasn't long before he dived into a dense thicket of weeds and brambles.

Then, he couldn't wait to summon something from his body.

Shushushu...

A series of virtual characters emitting a faint white glow began to appear before his eyes.

[Host: Lu Fei]

[Realm: Level 1 Demon Soldier (33/100)]

[Cultivation Technique: Demon Clan Breathing Skills (Beginner) (12/100)]

[Abilities: Spear Skills (Beginner) (18/100); Archery (Beginner) (6/100)]

[Divine Skills: None]

[Innate Talent: Sky Wolf Swallowing the Moon (Beginner) (7/100)]

[Soul Power: None]

[...]

Looking at the virtual characters in front of him that resembled ink painting.

Lu Fei's eyes widened.

This must be his cheat.

He had noticed it when he was listening to the Mountain King's meeting on Rolling Mountain.

It was only now that he had time to summon it though.

Looking at the virtual panel in front of him, Lu Fei couldn't help but mull over it, combining it with the original host's memories.

The "Realm" column on the panel was easy to understand as it likely referred to the strength of his current White Wolf Demon body.

A Level 1 Demon Soldier, which meant he was at the bottom of the entire mountain's hierarchy.

Beneath it, the "Cultivation Technique" column had the "Demon Clan Breathing Skills" which the original host learned from the Bear leader on Rolling Mountain after her spiritual intelligence was awakened, and she transformed into a demon.

This was the cultivation technique that all the lower-level demons on the mountain cultivated. As for what cultivation techniques the higher-level demons cultivated, he didn't know.

The abilities column with "Spear Skills" and "Archery" was easy to understand.

The "Divine Skills" just below, Lu Fei guessed it probably meant things like skills or spells.

Although, being the lowest level of little demons, the original host hadn't mastered any Divine Skills yet.

Next was the "Innate Talent" column.

That was also easy to understand, as every demon would comprehend an innate talent as long as they awakened their spiritual intelligence and successfully transformed.

Just like the Crow Demon's ability to hear from a long distance or the hardness and sharpness of Red Pi, the little pig demon's body.

The innate talent of Lu Fei's current body was to aid in cultivating. On nights with moonlight, his cultivation speed would be faster than usual.

As for the last "Soul Power" column on the panel.

Lu Fei really didn't understand it yet.

However, there was plenty of time to slowly figure it out.

With that in mind.

Lu Fei looked around and found that it was a good place to slack off.

So he immediately lost interest in continuing his patrol.

He then found a more comfortable spot.

He then sat down cross-legged, with his hands in a meditative stance, tongue against his palate, and eyes half-closed, he began to circulate the Demon Clan's Breathing Skills, as per the methods in the original host's memory.

Time slowly passed.

As the orb of light in the sky descended toward the west, the day started to darken.

Lu Fei also awoke from his meditation.

He looked up at the sky, stuck his head out to glance around, and found that there were no other demons around.

Only then did he emerge from the undergrowth with his long spear.

First, he stretched lazily, then patted the dust off his butt, after which he left, carrying his long spear.
