Upon hearing their own ancestor's words, many people's hearts tightened, and they began to secretly make various preparations.

Although Master Withered Wood was unafraid of the Yin Spirit Demon King, they were scared!

Merely the aftermath of a magical battle would be unbearable for them. If Master Withered Wood really started fighting with this Golden Monkey Demon King, they would undoubtedly be the first to die.

However, to everyone's surprise, the arrogant Golden Monkey Demon King, albeit with a cold expression, did not show any anger.

He merely said coldly, "In that case, take care, fellow Daoist, I won't see you off."

True Monarch Withered Wood was not surprised, nodded, and said, "Thank you, Daoist, farewell!"

With that, he maneuvered the hovering dragon boat to depart.

Jin Hou stood still, unmoved, merely watching the hovering dragon boat disappear into the distance:

"Medicine King Mountain... hmph!"

At this moment, a formidable and robust Golden Core Monkey Demon arrived next to the Golden Monkey Demon King, filled with malevolent qi, and said, "Ancestor, why not keep these humans here?"

"These humans are the most hateful. In the past, they occupied the best Spirit Vein Blessed Lands in the depths of Yunmeng Mountain to establish sects, gather herbs and mine, and would often hunt our demon race to acquire meat for cooking into herbal dishes and spiritual food, while other materials were used for alchemy and artifact refining, and that was already intolerable."

"Red Dragon Daoist is a major figure of our demon race, and now that the cave mansion of Red Dragon Daoist has emerged in the world, it is a great event for our demon race, and the opportunities in his cave mansion should rightly belong to our demon race. Yet these humans have come to our Yunmeng Mountain to seize this opportunity from us. Their greedy faces are truly detestable!"

As he spoke, his eyes, tinged with a faint red hue, glared resentfully at the distant hovering dragon boat.

Just moments ago, the overbearing Jin Hou now retracted his iron rod, placed one hand behind him, adopting a demeanor of indifference, and said calmly:

"Hou Qi, I know you were injured by a cultivator as a child, nearly lost your life, and have since harbored resentment towards the Human Race. You even sneaked down the mountain to kill many humans, but this is not a reason for you to urge this king to vent your grievances."

The Golden Core Monkey Demon's face changed dramatically, its legs gave way, and it promptly knelt before the Golden Monkey Demon King, knocking its head in desperation:

"Ancestor, spare me! Hou Qi dares not! Dares not!"

It knew all too well how ruthless its ancestor was, fearful of provoking his anger, it didn't hesitate to kneel and beg for mercy.

Jin Hou didn't even glance at it, merely said, "Whoever harmed you, just go kill them."

"Whether it's our demon race or their human race, in the end, it's nothing more than survival of the fittest."

"Though humans have all sorts of rites and principles to decorate, at the end of the day, how many in this world truly speak of principles?"

"If you can't stand it, you can either go rob and kill or ally with other demons to launch a sneak attack, this king won't interfere…"

Saying this, a cold smile appeared on Jin Hou's face: "As for keeping these people here, this kind of boast, even this king wouldn't dare utter, and yet you dare speak such big words?"

"The Daoist skill cultivated by that human cultivator just now was the Path of Life and Death, his cultivation is not inferior to this king, and besides, that giant boat he is seated upon was not activated. Otherwise, once the true fire is unleashed, all of you would die except for me!"

"Does this king not want to make a move? I simply do not wish for my Golden Monkey Clan to suffer heavy losses. Only a fool like you, with your brain covered in lard, knows nothing but fighting all day and doesn't understand the use of brains!"

"As for the Red Dragon Immortal Palace, huh…"

Jin Hou laughed lightly, with a hint of coldness:

"That Red Dragon Daoist has formed deep karma with the Human Race, cultivating the Human Daoist Skills, you consider him part of the demon race, but he has never regarded himself as such. Even if we enter the Red Dragon Immortal Palace, we would not gain any benefits, nor would we receive any special treatment."

"You claim to consider our demon race, but if other demons aren't anxious, why are you?"

"Moreover, when we speak of the demon race, it is merely a collective term for many races, you should be considering my Golden Monkey Clan specifically."

The Golden Core Monkey Demon repeatedly kowtowed: "Hou Qi knows he was wrong, please punish him, ancestor!"

It hesitated for a moment and couldn't help but say, "But… Ancestor. Though these humans are hard to deal with, wouldn't it be easier for us to capture them if we seek help from the Celestial Fox Palace, Poison Dragon Cave, or White Ape Mountain?"

Jin Hou let out a light sigh, shaking his head and said, "It seems you've become more and more unprogressive over the years…"

"You can seek help from demons, but others can also solicit assistance, Medicine King Mountain is Qinzhou's first Great Immortal Sect, openly possessing three Dragon Gate Realm Yang Spirit great powers. My face can only bring so many Yin Spirit Demon Kings?"

The Golden Core Monkey Demon stood there, speechless.

"What a waste! Even after forming a Demon Core, you remain an irredeemable waste!"

Jin Hou shook his head again, full of regret.

The Golden Monkey Clan possessed extraordinary lineage, with a trace of the Ancient Purple-eyed Golden Monkey's blood, endowed with high spiritual wisdom and excellent cultivation talent.

Yet high intelligence does not equate to cleverness, as least this fool before his eyes surely hadn't inherited the ancestor's wisdom!

The Golden Core Monkey Demon dared not argue, lowered its head in silence.

Jin Hou said indifferently:

"Keeping an idiot like you around only disgraces and brings trouble to my Golden Monkey Clan, this time, this king will fetch a Red Dragon Order, by then you shall accompany us."

The implication in his words was to make wasteful use of him, treating him as cannon fodder….

...

On the other side, on the hovering dragon boat.

After the incidents with the White Snake and the Golden Monkey Demon King, the cultivators of Medicine King Mountain no longer held their initial sense of superiority and arrogance.

Most of the Inner Sect Disciples suffered some injuries to varying degrees.

One by one, they appeared dispirited and listless.

True Monarch Withered Wood had already returned to his residence, so the subsequent trivial matters were handled by the stewards accompanying the hovering dragon boat.

Gu Yuan was relieved to find that his acquaintances Niu Youde, Xia Xiuxue, and Qiu Yue were basically unharmed.

Although Niu Youde suffered some injuries, they weren't severe.

Gu Yuan circulated the Primordial True Qi, letting streams of vibrant Primordial True Qi flow through various parts of his body, causing his wounds to heal rapidly.

"I originally thought that without considering the Red Dragon Order's factors, even an ordinary Celestial Human Realm Loose Cultivator could come to the Red Dragon Immortal Palace seeking opportunities, seems I was misguided…"

He sighed inwardly:

"The Red Dragon Immortal Palace, though it opened its doors widely, allows anyone with a Red Dragon Order to enter and seek immortal fate. But how easy is it to obtain such immortal fate?"

"Even figuring out how to reach the Red Dragon Immortal Palace is a problem in itself."

"With various demons and fierce beasts inhabiting the depths of the Yunmeng Mountain Range, even a Golden Core Great Cultivator would find it challenging to reach the palace gates."

This time, although the group faced numerous twists along the way due to the hovering dragon boat being too conspicuous, attracting too much attention, the presence of various demons, fierce beasts, and other dangers in the depths of Yunmeng Mountain Range must absolutely not be underestimated!
