"Oh,"
The old ape heaved a sigh of relief and nodded slightly. "So, it's Howling Moon Mountain. I've heard of the fastest rising territory in the past hundred years. "
The Rat King and the others were invigorated and felt flattered.
Su Zimo had a calm expression.
He could not figure out the old ape's intentions.
"Stand over here and let me take a look,"
The old ape looked at Su Zimo's group with a murky gaze and raised his arm, beckoning in a seemingly feeble manner.
Monkey looked at Su Zimo with a questioning expression.
He had a feeling that the old ape was acting strangely and his hairs stood on end when he was swept by that murky gaze!
What he meant was to ask Su Zimo if he felt that something was amiss. They should kill their way out right now!
Right now, they were standing at the back of the demon horde and might have a chance if they turned and fled.
Su Zimo shook his head gently.
Under the watchful eyes of an overlord, who could escape?
Even if the Overlord was old, he still had five protectors backing him!
Taking a deep breath of air, Su Zimo parted the demon horde and led the way.
Many fiend demons in the surroundings looked at Su Zimo's group with scrutinizing, vicious and malicious gazes.
Some of the fiend demons even stuck out their scarlet tongues or bared their fangs and claws in an attempt to scare them and embarrass them.
The Rat King walked the short few hundred meters with trepidation and was already drenched in sweat.
Even Solitary Cloud felt uneasy and his breathing quickened, let alone him.
At that moment, if anyone gave the order and the demons swarmed forward, they would be torn to shreds instantly!
Among everyone, Su Zimo was the only one who had a calm expression and continued forward!
An imperceptible look of admiration flashed through the old ape's eyes.
That boldness was unmatched by anyone else!
A strange feeling rose in Su Zimo's heart.
The reason why the old ape wanted him to head forward was partly because he wanted to check out Su Zimo's background. At the same time, he seemed to be interested in monkey!
Before long, Su Zimo's group arrived at the platform and stood side by side with the Ten Great Territorial Lords!
Ying Li stood beside him.
Su Zimo could clearly sense the vicious gazes from the side. Ying Li was not the only one. The fiend demons behind him were filled with killing intent as well!
The old ape stared at Su Zimo for a while and asked, "You're the leader of Howling Moon Mountain?"
"Yes."
Su Zimo replied.
The old ape chuckled. "If a low-level fiend demon can become a Territorial Lord, you must have some capabilities. Very good, the younger generation will surpass us in time."
"I wouldn't dare. Senior, you flatter me."
Even when facing an overlord, Su Zimo's attitude was neither servile nor overbearing.
But after saying this, Su Zimo regretted it.
The word 'senior' was commonly used in the cultivation world.
In the Demonic Beast World, almost no Demonic Beast Race knew how to use it, so it was rather jarring to say it out loud.
Su Zimo glanced around and saw the old ape frowning.
The surrounding demons might not think too much about such a small issue.
However, there was a high chance that it would arouse the suspicions of the old ape!
This old ape had lived for countless years and even his eyelashes were hollow – what sort of schemes had he not seen before?
Although Su Zimo was expressionless, he reminded himself internally.
This was not Howling Moon Mountain – he had to be careful from now on!
"So, it's you ants!"
Suddenly, a cold laugh sounded beside him.
Ying Li turned around with a menacing gaze and said coldly, "I remember that I warned you guys outside Ape Chatter Ridge not to let me see you guys again. How dare you come here? You must have a death wish! "
"Insolent!"
A protector behind the old ape stood out and hollered.
The burly man had a fair face and no beard. However, he was burly and his eyes were like copper bells. His voice was rough and his holler was awe-inspiring!
The pale-faced burly man glared at Ying Li coldly and said in a deep voice, "You're not qualified to speak when the Overlord is questioning you. Back off!"
The demons went silent when the Overlord conversed.
Even the protectors present could not interrupt casually, let alone Ying Li who was only a mid-level fiend demon.
Ying Li's aura weakened after being hollered at by the pale-faced burly man and he shrunk his neck in fear.
The other party was a high-level fiend demon after all and could kill him with a single finger!
However, Ying Li's gaze circled behind the old ape and he was invigorated. Puffing his chest, he declared loudly, "As one of the Ten Great Territorial Lords, why can't I speak?"
"These ants are merely low-level fiend demons. How dare they come here to join in the fun? They must have a death wish!"
A commotion broke out within the demon horde.
Just Now, the old ape praised Su Zimo's group and looked at them in a new light. However, Ying Li's sudden words were akin to disregarding an Overlord!
The old ape did not seem to have heard the quarrel below and slumped deeply into his chair. His head was lowered, as though he was already asleep.
The pale-faced burly man's expression darkened as he glanced sideways and glared at Protector One who was not far away. He then turned around and said coldly, "Ying Li, how dare you! Who gave you the guts to disregard an Overlord and go against me?! "
There had long been rumors that the Protector One of Ape Chatter Ridge was related to Ying Li by blood.
Now, it seemed like it was true.
The pale-faced burly man's words were clearly targeted at Protector One who was beside him!
Protector One lowered his head like an old monk in meditation and did not move at all, as though he did not hear the accusation of the pale-faced burly man.
The pale-faced burly man was increasingly enraged and stomped his foot, causing the platform to shake and dust to fly everywhere. He glared at Ying Li and said coldly, "I think you're the one who has a death wish!"
A suppressive aura surged forth!
That was the suppressive aura of a high-level fiend demon and Ying Li could not withstand it at all.
Blood drained from his face and he nearly knelt on the ground.
"Ling 'er, you're being too serious,"
Right then, another protector stood out and waved his sleeves, dispelling the suppressive aura that the pale-faced burly man exerted on Ying Li with ease.
"Protector Four, what's the meaning of this?"
The pale-faced burly man frowned and looked at the protector beside him, questioning, "The reason why this Ying Li is so arrogant is because he's relying on the power of someone else. If we don't punish him, where will the dignity of the Overlord go?"
"Why are you so anxious when the Overlord hasn't even said anything?"
Another protector said in a calm tone.
"Fufu, someone must be used to being arrogant because his grandfather is the Overlord and doesn't even allow others to speak," Another protector said sarcastically.
"Second protector, third protector, you guys …?"
The pale-faced burly man looked at the protectors beside him in disbelief and was so angry that he was trembling.
When he heard that, Su Zimo was enlightened.
So, this pale-faced burly man was the grandson of the old ape and was directly related to him by blood.
However, given the current situation, it was most likely no longer a matter of the dignity of the Overlord.
By the looks of it, something even bigger was about to happen in Ape Chatter Ridge!
The pale-faced burly man realized that something was amiss as well and glared at the four protectors with a fierce gaze, asking sternly, "What are you guys trying to do today?!"
Right then, Protector One who had remained silent the entire time suddenly opened his eyes with a cold glint.
Arriving beside the old ape, Protector One placed his palm on the old ape's shoulder and patted gently, sighing. "Overlord, you've aged."
