“How does it feel? Do you notice anything different?”
After bringing Black Mountain back, Feng Qing’an asked it for any strange feelings. Although he didn’t find any problems after checking on it, still, Black Mountain’s own feelings mattered the most.
Howl-
Black Mountain let out a low whimper, rubbing its head against Feng Qing’an.
It liked the feeling of being cared for. However, it didn’t feel any discomfort. Instead, it felt unusually clear-headed and lighter than usual, as if it had broken free from certain chains and shackles.
“Really?”
Hearing what Black Mountain said, Feng Qing’an stopped in his tracks, crouched down, with one arm crossed over his chest and the other hand stroking his chin while looking up and down at the demon wolf.
“Speaking of it, you indeed look a little better than yesterday, not so fierce!”
As a Guardian Beast master, Feng Qing’an understood Black Mountain even better than itself. Its demon body, demon power, and even its soul saw no changes, but its demeanor had undergone a substantial change.
In the netherworld, due to bloody battles, Black Mountain had developed a strong bloody aura, accompanied by dense, pure black fur.
Even if it was just sitting there without showing any kind of ferocity, it made summoned demon wolves be in awe. The deterrent effect of Black Mountain on ordinary mortals is needless to say.
If it revealed its true form, its massive body size and fierce temperament could probably scare a group of people to death on the spot.
However, now Black Mountain exuded less of the fierce and bloody aura. Its eyes seemed much clearer than when it had returned from the netherworld. With its reduced size, it even gave Feng Qing’an an amusing and endearing impression now.
The change in its demeanor occurred after Black Mountain listened to the monk’s sermon. Feng Qing’an could not say how this change would affect Black Mountain because it was beyond his understanding. But it was okay.
“Dong Huang, are you free now? I have something to ask you!”
When in doubt, ask the ruler of the country. No matter what, she was once an immortal. Even though Dong Huang believed that her past insights might be outdated, her vision was still there and would undoubtedly guide in the right direction.
“Go ahead!”
A chilly voice echoed in Feng Qing’an’s heart. With the existence of the Soul Contract, they could communicate across two realms. But Feng Qing’an was kind enough not to bother Dong Huang unnecessarily, because as a queen, who knows how much work she had to deal with.
Besides, unlike his clingy sister Nan Ge, Dong Huang had a completely different temperament. Feng Qing’an wouldn’t engage her in idle chat. Although whenever he consulted Dong Huang, she would always respond seriously, chatting with her wasn’t much fun.
“Black Mountain met that old monk today…”
Feng Qing’an told Dong Huang what had just happened, and finally, he asked,
“Is this change good or bad for Black Mountain, and what effect might it have on it?”
“Good!”
The queen of You Huang Ghost Country unequivocally answered Feng Qing’an’s question,
“Ghost Wolves can grow by devouring Ghost Creatures. The Soul-devouring Ghost Fire evolved from their bloodline can eliminate the madness and malice within Ghost Creatures.
But it can only remove a large part of it, there will inevitably be residuals. If a Ghost Wolf devours a large number of Ghost Creatures in a short period, even it would suffer, possibly becoming confused and falling into madness, transforming into a demon beast.”
“So, the divine power derived from Ghost Wolf bloodline carries such hidden danger!”
Feng Qing’an glanced at Black Mountain, which seemed to have returned to its naive puppy state, wagging its tail at him.
“This is a must for Ghost Creatures. The devouring divine power derived from the Ghost Wolf bloodline is superior. As long as they control the frequency and interval of devouring Ghost Creatures, they can grow much faster than the average demon creature with little to no hidden danger.”
Feng Qing’an seemed to understand.
“Purifying the evil spirits, eliminating grudges, resolving the fierce bloody aura, these are what the Buddhist Gate is best at. Meeting the old monk and listening to his sermon, Black Mountain now has gained a small fortune. The malice and madness accumulated from devouring Ghost Creatures should all be cleaned up now.”
“So, I should thank him?”
The teenager’s expression became somewhat strange.
“As Black Mountain’s master, you really should thank that old monk. However, you don’t need to worry about it. I’ll personally extend my gratitude to that venerable monk on your behalf!”
The queen, who was sitting on the throne, still had a cold voice. Feng Qing’an didn’t detect any changes. But the several ghost generals who were reporting the progress of the annexation of other Ghost Countries beneath her throne were panic-stricken.
They couldn’t understand it. They hadn’t made any mistakes in their work, but the queen was suddenly angry.
Even the Ghost Creatures felt an icy cold power enveloping the towering palace. Although the queen’s demeanor didn’t change much, they knew that the queen was furious, otherwise, she wouldn’t vent her power in such a way.
“Your Majesty, please calm down!”
Even though the ghost general was puzzled about what it did wrong, it quickly knelt on the ground to apologize to the queen. The queen could have no problems, so it must have been the vassals who made a mistake.
It believed that there were no issues with what it was doing, but in the eyes of the queen, it must have been progressing too slowly. And indeed, it could have done much faster, but it took it easy during the process..
