Chapter 496: Everyone is a Mount (1)

In the Jie Lin Race’s territory, Jie Mo and the elders, who were originally discussing why Mao Buhuo had become Li Yu’s mount, instantly fell silent.

Looking at the information on the Heavenly Dao Rankings, Jie Mo began to doubt his demon life.

He thought Mao Buhuo had secretly sought refuge with Emperor Yu, but he did not expect to become Emperor Yu’s mount for no reason.

‘Did I lose my memory? Or could I become Emperor Yu’s mount without my permission?’

‘Did anyone ask me?’

“What’s going on?” The elders looked at each other.

‘Did my Patriarch secretly submit to Emperor Yu?’

“There’s something wrong with this mount ranking. This is too strange. I became Emperor Yu’s mount, but I didn’t even know!” Jie Mo said with a puzzled expression.

If not for the fact that he was shocked by Emperor Yu’s power, he really wanted to rush to the palace of the Heaven Region Kingdom and ask Emperor Yu what was going on.

At the border of the Heaven Region Kingdom, the encampment of the demon army was also in an uproar. They saw the two patriarchs of the Mao Du Race and the Jie Lin Race enter the rankings one after another and become Emperor Yu’s mounts.

Countless demons could no longer calm down.

When they saw Emperor Yu’s name, their hearts had already wavered, and they did not dare to fight the humans anymore.

Now that they saw the two leaders of the four demon races, Mao Buhuo and Jie Mo, become Emperor Yu’s mounts, the impact on their hearts was too great.

It was clear that the Mao Du Race and the Jie Lin Race had already chosen to submit to the humans.

For a moment, they did not know where the future of the demons lay. Were they going to return to the fear of being dominated and ruled by humans?

Regardless, if they dared to invade the Heaven Region Kingdom this time, nothing good would await them.

In the Heaven Region Kingdom, after Li Yu saw the information about Jie Mo on the rankings, many vague memories surfaced in his mind.

He also understood why Mao Buhuo and Jie Mo were his mounts.

As he had guessed previously, this was really the identity they had inherited.

Kuiniu and the Heavenly Qilin were originally powerful demons who were enemies of the human race. Later on, they were defeated by him, so Kuiniu and the Heavenly Qilin became his mounts.

Of course, Li Yu also had many mounts in his previous life. It could even be said that he had too many to count. Later on, he forgot how many mounts he had.

Furthermore, apart from mounts, there were also some powerful demons he kept in captivity, such as some demons with delicious meat.

The ancestor of the Yu Jia Race, the Fire Phoenix Race, was one of them.

Later on, most of these demons were sent into Emperor Yu Mountain to rest and cultivate.

However, Li Yu was worried that these demons would give birth to powerful children and descendants that were no longer under his control.

Therefore, the contract seal he planted in the bodies of these demons was a powerful spell that had fused into their bloodlines. It could control all the races with their bloodlines.

In other words, as long as he possessed the Kui Ox and the Heavenly Qilin bloodline, his bloodline would possess the power of his contract seal.

Furthermore, Emperor Yu Mountain at that time was similar to Li Yu’s current Misty Immortal Island, existing in an independent space in the Primordial World.

It was probably because they had once lived in the Emperor Yu Mountain that they were not affected by the strange calamity in the Primordial World and escaped.

This was also the reason why they were spared.

Later on, because of his death, they slowly found a way to leave Emperor Yu Mountain. Perhaps for some reason, they were able to return to the Primordial World. After countless years, they gradually developed their own races.

However, they did not know that the power of the contract seal flowed in their bloodlines.

This was the reason why Mao Buhuo and Jie Mo were his mounts.

Not only that, but Li Yu felt that the so-called four demon races and the ancestors of the other demon races might have once been his mounts or reared demons.

Therefore, many demon experts probably had the power of their contract seals in their bodies. In a sense, they were their mounts.

As for why only Mao Buhuo and Jie Mo were on the rankings, Li Yu guessed that on the one hand, their bloodlines were purer, and on the other hand, they were strong enough. After all, they were only in the top ten.

As the patriarchs of the four demon races, these two were definitely experts standing at the top of the demon race.

Not only that, but Li Yu even guessed that the humans in the Primordial World were likely the descendants of his subordinates who cultivated and lived in Emperor Yu Mountain.

In that case, a calamity had indeed occurred in the Primordial World back then, but he could only slowly find the answer.

‘The rankings are getting interesting. It looks like the top experts of the four demon races will be on the rankings one after another!’ Li Yu thought to himself and suddenly felt that the Heavenly Dao Rankings were indeed good at fixing the show.

He wondered what these demons would think when they saw that their clan leader and experts were their mounts.

“I didn’t expect things to be easier than I imagined. If these demon bloodlines have the power of the contract seal, I only need to use the contract seal technique to instantly control them!”

Li Yu felt that everything had become simple.

However, at this moment, Emperor Chengren, Emperor Taiqiang, and the heads of the various large families were filled with curiosity.
