Mythology Starts with Childish Skills

Mentioning Su Baixing, Mountain Lord's expression subtly changed. Indeed, only a few people knew his exact location and current situation, and Su Baixing was one of them.

Their friendship could also be traced back to their youth. Compared to merely being kindred spirits with Fang Duohai, their friendship was more akin to that of confidants. Whether in martial arts, aspirations, or temperament, they were extremely compatible.

Over the years, Mountain Lord always sought out Su Baixing for drinks and heartfelt conversations whenever he went out, their friendship being exceptionally deep.

He didn't believe that a mere so-called Earth Demon Alliance could make Su Baixing betray him.

"Su Baixing knew you were plotting against me and willingly betrayed me?"

For some reason, Fang Duohai seemed remarkably candid at this moment, shaking his head and explaining,

"That's not the case. After I made contact with Su Baixing, I used my years of friendship with you and the talk of a betrothal between our children to extract information about you from him. He didn't know I would come looking for you."

Mountain Lord's expression then relaxed considerably. Indeed, someone he had maintained a friendship with for so many years wouldn't betray him so easily. It turned out he was merely taken advantage of and schemed against.

"Why does the person behind the Earth Demon Alliance want you to establish such a force, and what is their purpose?"

Lu Le was somewhat curious. According to Fang Duohai, the person who helped him elevate his cultivation to the Grandmaster realm should possess extremely high martial arts skills. Even if not as skilled as his young master, they should still be a rare talent in the vast Divine Continent.

For such a person to establish a loose alliance force under the eyes of the Meng family, although it might not cause any great waves, it might not be entirely without influence, which was truly worrying.

If he hadn't known, it would have been fine, but now that he knew of its existence, Lu Le had to thoroughly investigate its information to know the enemy and know himself.

Fang Duohai still answered whatever he was asked.

"I don't know either. Over the years, the number of times I've actually seen him is very few. He only sees me when he needs me. At other times, we are like strangers.

This time, the role that that person played in seeking out Brother Mountain Lord is actually very small. The main reason is that I want to take the relationship with Brother Mountain Lord a step further."

After a pause, Fang Duohai explained again,

"It's true. That person just sent me a message, telling me to recruit more experts to strengthen the Earth Demon Alliance. And Brother Mountain Lord's methods, talent, and martial arts are all among the best I know, so I wanted to take this opportunity to take our relationship a step further.

I also know that that person comes from the demonic path and is probably not a good person, so I have to make multiple preparations."

This made both Lu Le and Mountain Lord understand that Fang Duohai was also worried about the other party, which was why he wanted to win over a strong person like Mountain Lord.

And there was nothing more close and useful than a marriage relationship.

As for what he was worried about, there were many possible scenarios to guess.

For example, he was worried that the other party would abandon him after using him, or that the other party's ambitions were too high and their life too fragile, ultimately leading to defeat and implicating him. Or, he was worried that the other party's movements would be too big, attracting attacks from strong people, and so on.

In any case, Fang Duohai's philosophy was that having more friends meant more paths, especially powerful friends.

He learned of Mountain Lord's location from Su Baixing, and after subtly inquiring, he learned of Mountain Lord's current martial arts and strength. He was moved by this, so he came to propose marriage today.

As for the Earth Demon Alliance and the person behind it, the relationship was actually not that great, it was just his personal consideration.

Of course, after learning that there were competitors, he pretended to be powerful, creating something out of nothing, and treating everything in the Earth Demon Alliance as his backer, in order to intimidate Mountain Lord and Lu Le, wanting to do everything possible to facilitate this marriage as soon as possible.

Mountain Lord was silent for a long time, and said,

"You and I were originally friends, and we shared the same ambitions many years ago. Unfortunately, times have changed, and you have changed.

For the sake of you not intending to harm me, leave. As for the marriage, let's just forget about it.

The Earth Demon Alliance has nothing to do with me, and I will not explore its secrets!"

After hearing this, Lu Le hesitated to speak. He really wanted to find out the relevant information about the Earth Demon Alliance, especially the members and the identity of the person behind it, but seeing Mountain Lord's disinterest and Shan Hua's worries, he finally suppressed it.

Fang Duohai glanced at Lu Le and pointed his finger at him,

"Brother Mountain Lord, you are a worldly person, I believe you, but what about this person? He is very curious about the Earth Demon Alliance, and he also has a great background, he is definitely a disaster.

Today, if you allow me to kill him, I will naturally retreat and guarantee that I will never come again."

Mountain Lord frowned. Was Fang Duohai out of his mind? He actually dared to pressure him?

Did he really think that their past friendship would allow him to be so unscrupulous in front of him?

Lu Le frowned and said,

"Actually, I was wondering before, Fang Duohai, how can you be so cooperative, answering whatever we ask.

Now it seems that you have another purpose, delaying time, or diverting our attention?"

Lu Le had long noticed that the other party was too cooperative. They asked anything, and Fang Duohai answered anything, without any concealment, without any embarrassment, which was in conflict with his initial attitude of wanting to do everything possible to conceal it.

Now, Fang Duohai's attitude suddenly became tough, which inevitably made Lu Le suspicious.

At the same time, he secretly mobilized the true energy in his body, and found that there was nothing unusual, which was extremely puzzling.

Mountain Lord was the same. He was also worried that he had been plotted against invisibly, but his true energy was full, his divine essence was lively, and he could mobilize the power of heaven and earth and the earth veins of the entire valley at any time, and the formation was for use, and his combat power was at the peak of his life, and there seemed to be no problem.

Fang Duohai smiled,

"Smart people, no wonder Mountain Lord is so optimistic about you, much stronger than my stupid grandson, but unfortunately, you are not my grandson."

As soon as he said this, he clearly stated that he had indeed done something, which made Mountain Lord, Lu Le, and Shan Hua even more nervous.

"No, you didn't do anything, otherwise, how could I not feel anything?"

Mountain Lord was vigilant and curious at the same time, the other party had no chance to play tricks.

He carefully recalled the conversation and contact with Fang Duohai, and the other party's actions were all under his control, without the slightest transgression.

Suddenly, Mountain Lord suddenly thought of something, his eyes were cold, and bone-chilling killing intent permeated them.

Raising his hand, the Earth Demon Alliance token in his palm seemed exceptionally dazzling at this time.

This was the only arrangement he might have been plotted against.

It's no wonder he was so careless, it was really because Fang Duohai was so cooperative at the time, and he claimed to have home field advantage, so he didn't think about it in this regard.

And after Fang Duohai saw Mountain Lord's actions, he also sighed,

"Sure enough, you are still so quick-witted, you can instantly find the key to the problem."(End of this chapter)
