[v]Laugh at me for being a loser? You'll all kneel down after you awaken your talent!

"You son of a bitch, you're asking for it!" The Mountain King was absolutely furious, and he smashed the table next to him to pieces with a slap.

"Be careful, he's a Xuan King level expert." The black dragon quickly came behind Bai Huang, feeling relieved. It seemed the leopard woman was right; this new little mountain king was indeed quite capable.

"This is my Black Dragon Mountain. I have laid many traps for today. Let's work together..."

Black Dragon was only halfway through his sentence when he saw White Phoenix walking towards the Great Mountain King.

"Hey!"

"I don't need to cooperate with you."

The Twin Demon Flame Technique unleashed her full power, instantly boosting her to the level of a three-star Xuan King.

The overwhelming aura of a powerful figure forced the mountain king to slump onto the table.

Countless flames rose from the ground, enveloping the Great Mountain King.

The black dragon stood frozen in place, watching as wisps of black flame emerged from the fire, engulfing the Great Mountain King with unstoppable force.

He didn't even have time to let out a scream before he turned into ashes on the spot.

Bai Huang was taken aback at first, then remembered something, reached out and gently flicked the head of the black cat in her arms, "Naughty!"

The black cat lazily hummed twice, then opened its mouth and spoke in human language.

"This guy has a foul mouth, I'm going to kill him." He had been bottling up his pent-up frustration for the past two days and was looking for an outlet when this big, clumsy guy just walked right into his life.

Bai Huang also noticed that Luo Jing's strength had been increasing rapidly since he woke up from that slumber, and now he could kill a Xuan King with a wave of his hand.

However, it's also possible that this mountain king's strength wasn't solid enough and his combat power wasn't strong enough.

"you you you!"

The remaining seven mountain kings were extremely surprised.

"You actually killed the Mountain King!"

Bai Huang sat down in the head seat without any psychological burden. She gently tapped the table and said, "Sit down!"

With a 'whoosh', the seven people quickly sat down.

They moved as if afraid that if they sat too slowly, the black flames would burn them.

"You...you..." The black dragon, who had been stammering for a long time without uttering a single word, blushed. "Now that you have defeated the Great Mountain King, you are our new Great Mountain King."

Bai Huang responded lazily.

Her gaze swept lazily over everyone.

"Now that I've become your king, I have to set some rules for you." Bai Huang half-closed her eyes, yawned sleepily, and looked as lazy as if she were easy to ambush. However, no one dared to move, wishing they could sit up straighter.

"Please speak," the black dragon said, letting out a sigh of relief.

Although she could no longer be a queen, at least she no longer had to worry about anyone coveting her and forcing her to become someone's woman.

"First of all, you can no longer engage in the robbery, murder, and other similar activities you used to do."

Black Dragon's eyes widened suddenly, and he said with difficulty, "But if that's the case, we'll lose our basic livelihood, and I'm afraid we won't be able to support our brothers."

"Are all these spirit beasts on the mountain missing limbs and unable to support themselves?" Bai Huang glanced at her coldly. "I know you've done a lot of evil things in the past. If I really wanted to hold a grudge, I would have to kill you all."

Everyone felt a chill on their necks.

Bai Huang chuckled inwardly. She had investigated before coming. Apart from the Great Mountain King, Wang Mengfan, and that fair-skinned man who had taken several lives, the others weren't exactly rotten.

She was just exaggerating. While it's true that some people do rob others of their money, the other mountain lords don't indiscriminately kill innocent people.

In more serious cases, they are beaten severely and thrown out.

"I don't know about other mountains, but we Black Dragon Mountain have never harmed any innocent people." Black Dragon spoke first, his gaze deep. "Most of the people on our mountain are women, and many of them are bandits who came to the mountain because they offended powerful people outside and couldn't survive. But we have no innocent lives on our hands!"

Bai Huang encountered many women along the way up Black Dragon Mountain, including some without cultivation talent.

It seems they're just looking for refuge here.

"We are too..."

"Our Qingmai Mountain is also..."

The other mountain lords also offered their explanations.

Bai Huang remained silent, sitting directly in the head seat and staring at her fingers with a nonchalant air.

"Then, Great Mountain King, how can we ensure our brothers have enough to eat?" someone else asked.

“Buy spirit beasts.” Bai Huang slowly uttered three words. “They can also be used as mercenaries. You’ve occupied so many mountains but only used them as bandits. I’ve never seen such stupid people as you!”

Everyone was taken aback and scratched their heads.

"Instead of risking your lives to steal other people's things, wouldn't it be better to let them willingly deliver their goods to you?" Bai Huang chuckled. "Although each of your mountains may not be very strong individually, if you combine them, you'll have quite a few people. What's wrong with forming a mercenary guild?"

Everyone pursed their lips, but a glint of intelligence flickered in their eyes.

"Besides, once you've made a name for yourselves in this area, people will be begging you to even look at them. Just imagine that... doesn't it seem much better than being bandits?"

Mountain bandits, after all, can't be brought into the light.

No one was able to resist the temptation.

"But...but our enemies."

Bai Huang chuckled, opened her eyes, and the black cat straightened up, lazily looking at this group of fools.

"Are your enemies... as powerful as me?"

Of course not!

"I don't know what you're all afraid of!"

Everyone: "..." Suddenly, they felt a sense of security, as if they had found a powerful backer.

"Then...we need to give our mercenary group a name, choose a main mountain, oh oh oh, and build a decent house..."

What happens when you become a domineering and powerful mercenary?

"You pig-brain! Don't you know how much ink is in your belly before you dare to come up with such a name!"

With their powerful backers, the people immediately forgot about the tyrannical mountain lord.

They've always been opportunists, swaying from side to side with the wind, but at the same time, they felt a little fortunate that this mountain lord seemed like a decent person.

These kinds of people are the easiest to handle.

Although they are powerful, they won't easily take action. They'll try to build up their goodwill later, and they'll definitely have plenty of good days ahead.

Thinking about it makes me quite happy.

Suddenly, a noisy commotion arose outside.

"what happened?"

Black Dragon shouted something outside, and then Leopard Woman suddenly rushed in, saying, "Something's wrong! A fight has broken out outside!"

Bai Huang's eyebrows twitched.

"It was the bandits brought by the new mountain lord who got into a fight with the people brought by the other mountain lords."

Everyone was terrified; anyone who dared to mess with the boss was truly courting death.

"Hurry up..." they stammered nervously.

"Huh?" Bai Huang suddenly chuckled, seemingly quite pleased. She tilted her head and thought for a moment before saying, "Hey, little girl, pass on my orders. Tell them that within the Black Dragon Mountain area, no one I brought is allowed to escape. They can only hide within the Black Dragon Mountain. Have everyone else search for them. As long as they are not killed or maimed, if you can successfully drag them to me, I will reward you handsomely!"

Everyone was stunned into silence. How could this new Mountain King be any more gentle than the one before him?

Is she really this ruthless to the people she brought with her?
