Xiao Ming slowed his steps and walked forward step by step.

The Rhinoceros Demon General Xi Jing, at every Demon General banquet, would not make a grand show like other Demon Generals but only summon the five commanders.

Four small demons carrying the sedan chair had already been stopped outside the entrance to the cave.

A crack appeared in Yang Qifeng's field of vision. It was no longer a crack but several yards wide, with misty clouds on the other side, and faintly visible protruding rocks.

Above, there was no grass, and the rocks seemed to have been polished, extremely smooth and flat. However, the strange and unpredictable symbols carved on them gave a sense of coldness and desolation.

This cave is strange.

Yang Qifeng thought to himself, but his steps did not slow down.

He quickly walked through and arrived at a wider area. The small demon leading the way respectfully said, "Commander, we're here!"

Yang Qifeng nodded and walked in with large strides.

A large stone chair was placed in the center facing south, with three stone chairs on each side.

Below the central stone chair, on the left, someone was already seated.

It was an old man in a black robe, with white eyebrows and beard, deep wrinkles, and a hand but no legs. A long, narrow tail with black scales reflecting light coiled around the stone chair. His upper body was human, and his lower body was that of a snake, exuding a cold and lifeless aura.

Seeing this, Yang Qifeng frowned but said nothing.

He found the third stone chair on the right and sat down.

Whether in fairy tales or myths, the left side was always respected. Yang Qifeng was not very familiar with the other Demon Generals, but at the Rhinoceros Demon General's place, the leftmost seat was always reserved for the Commander of the Centipede, but today it was occupied by the Commander of the Viper.

Something is wrong, Yang Qifeng sat in his position without showing any emotion.

The time had come, and after Yang Qifeng arrived, the other commanders came one after another.

The third to arrive was the Eagle Commander, with sharp eagle eyes that seemed to pierce through everything. He stared at Yang Qifeng, making him feel as if needles were pricking his back.

He coldly snorted and walked to the second chair on the left and sat down.

After the Eagle Commander sat down, the Viper Commander extended his long tongue, lightly licking his face, and finally licking his lips. With a hoarse voice, he said, "Everyone is here, I will arrange the matters of the 29th Mountain."

Upon hearing this, Yang Qifeng's eyes narrowed, and his gaze towards the Viper Commander was filled with suspicion.

How dare he speak like this? The words themselves were not wrong, but such a statement was clearly not something the Viper Commander should say. It would be more appropriate for the Rhinoceros Demon General. Moreover, the phrase "everyone is here" was controversial, as only three of the five commanders of the 29th Mountain had arrived, and the Centipede Commander and another were still missing.

"Viper, how dare you be so presumptuous? Are you not afraid of the Demon General?" The Eagle Commander spread his pitch-black wings and said in a sharp voice.

"Only if he can come back to life," the Viper Commander said with a cold laugh.

A cold aura emanated from him, and his tongue flicked continuously.

It seems I've missed a lot during my years of seclusion, Yang Qifeng thought.

The Crow Commander was too poor. In the entire Crow Cave, there were only a few hundred small demons, most of whom were simple creatures created by the Demon Summoning Spell, capable of doing only simple tasks. They were absolutely incapable of gathering intelligence or monitoring the movements of other Demon Generals.

"I won't say much more. Submit to me, and you two can continue to be commanders. Otherwise, die here," the Viper Commander said with a cold, crisp voice as his tongue flicked.

"Submit to you? What a joke," the Eagle Commander said with disdain, his eyes like lightning. He spread his wings, and a treasure sword appeared in his hand.

A surge of spiritual energy rippled, and a sharp sound pierced the air.

As the Eagle Commander moved, the surroundings immediately distorted, and black shadows appeared out of nowhere, some fierce and others vengeful, all exuding a chilling aura that made one's hair stand on end.

They immediately pounced on the Eagle Commander like hungry tigers.

Black mist rolled and surged, like giant waves in an endless sea.

The treasure sword pierced through with unmatched power.

It was incredibly fast, but after the initial strike, it felt like piercing through cotton, with little resistance but a continuous, unending force, like drops of water that could eventually form a lake.

The force of the sword was neutralized, and the Eagle Commander flapped his wings, dispersing the black shadows. His eyes were sharp, and in his frustration, he swung again, but the enemy was like cotton, and no matter how hard he tried, he could not harm them.

"It's useless, Eagle. Do you think I chose today to act just to prevent your speed?" the Viper Commander said with a cackle, his movements not slowing down.

The black shadows were scattered, but the black mist did not dissipate and was absorbed by the shadows behind.

What was initially an easily defeated shadow now posed a real threat to the Eagle Commander.

A burst of light suddenly erupted, radiating in all directions, melting the surrounding rock walls and creating a pit several feet deep.

Behind the Eagle Commander, a black shadow suddenly appeared, with a single eye, two nostrils, and a mouth split open, revealing sharp teeth. Droplets of saliva dripped from the split mouth.

The black shadow opened its mouth and bit into the Eagle Commander's back wing.

Watching the battle, Yang Qifeng knew the Eagle Commander was finished.

The Eagle Commander's advantage was his speed, which came from his wings. Without them, his combat power was halved, and he was no longer a match for the Viper Commander.

As Yang Qifeng had predicted, after being bitten, the Eagle Commander's speed greatly decreased. The Viper Commander seized the opportunity, biting into the bone and flesh and swallowing it all.

Yang Qifeng's eyes were cold as he looked at the victorious Viper Commander. He took action.

Yang Qifeng found it laughable to think that he could hide and develop slowly when he had a death warrant hanging over him. There was no time for gradual progress; his fate was destined to be tragic if he did not advance boldly.

He had to take the initiative and not only seize the 29th Mountain but the entire Daze Mountain.

To achieve something in the crisis, he needed to be strong enough and have his own followers and subordinates.

"Do not kill him, keep him alive. This little guy is a descendant of the Flying Serpent. Refining his bloodline can add one more transformation to your Thirty-Six Transformations of the Heavenly Gang," the Qianlan Demon God said.
