Cultivation of immortality by toad starts with cultivating demons

Chapter 2015 A Loyal Fool, The Dragon-Sparrow Gamble

"You're getting angry because I hit the nail on the head?" Mo Fan sneered. "The actions of the Zheng family in Qingwu Continent are witnessed by all cultivators in the world. They're used to being domineering, so they can't tolerate even the slightest criticism?"

"Do you know why the Zheng family sent you deep into the perilous Juewu Ruins to capture and kill me?"

Upon hearing this, the Ancient Dragon Sparrow frowned slightly, but still snorted coldly and firmly: "Don't talk nonsense! The Zheng family is the number one power in Qingwu Continent. They have always protected the peace of this region and have never done evil. If they really had ambitions, Qingwu Continent would have already been the Zheng family's domain. What need would there be for other forces?"

"As for why I captured you, you killed the second elder of the Zheng family, which enraged the Zheng family. Isn't it only natural that they sent me to take action?"

"Of course?" Mo Fan laughed angrily. "Of course, indeed!"

"I thought you still had some integrity, but now it seems you are nothing but someone who can't distinguish right from wrong and is incredibly foolish!"

To sentence me to death without asking questions or distinguishing right from wrong is not just blind loyalty, but utter folly!

"you--!"

The Primordial Dragon Sparrow flew into a rage, then said fiercely, "Now that I'm in your hands, no matter how eloquent you are, it's useless! If you have the guts, kill me now!"

"Killing you would be as easy as turning my hand, but I am unwilling to bear this unfounded stigma."

Mo Fan slowly shook his head and recounted in detail the cause and effect of his grudges with the Zheng family, the reason for killing Zheng Hongyun, the whole story of being chased by the Zheng family, and even his origin from the Nine Provinces Continent.

"This...how is this possible..."

"You are already a half-step Great Sage, how could you be a cultivator who just ascended from the lower realm?"

"Don't try to fool me!"

The Ancient Dragon Sparrow was filled with disbelief, its face turning pale and then red.

"The lower realm does not indeed have the pure primordial energy required for cultivation above the Saint Realm, but as long as this limitation is broken, one can still achieve great success in the lower realm. I am that exception."

Mo Fan's voice was icy, his gaze fixed on the Primordial Dragon Sparrow: "From beginning to end, it was the Zheng family that relentlessly pressured me; I was the one who was persecuted. Just because the Zheng family and the Wang family formed a marriage alliance, they sent Zheng Hongyun to hunt me down and even went down to the mortal realm to massacre my homeland."

"Didn't you keep saying that the Zheng family has never done anything wrong? Do you expect me to just stand by and watch my hometown turn into a living hell, and watch my relatives and clansmen all die tragically?"

“My resistance has become an unforgivable crime in your eyes?”

Haha... There's no such logic in this world!

"If you don't believe me, many cultivators around me have personally witnessed Zheng Hongyun leading his men to the mortal realm to slaughter people."

I can let you read their memories directly.

Do you dare?!

Mo Fan glared angrily, his aura imposing.

Since this ancient dragon sparrow wants to talk to him about loyalty and evil, then he will use the truth to force it and shatter its so-called protection and loyalty!

The Ancient Dragon Sparrow remained silent for a long time, and finally did not refute it again. It slowly lowered its head, clearly believing it to some extent.

Seeing this, Mo Fan spoke again, his tone laced with sarcasm: "Do you really think that just because you've protected the Zheng family for so many years, they regard you as their guardian deity?"

"In the eyes of the Zheng family, you are nothing more than a pawn that can be used or discarded, an obedient battle pet!"

"You know better than anyone how dangerous the Void Ruins are; it's a 'Great Sage Forbidden Zone'!"

"The Zheng family, just to deal with me, a half-step Great Sage, did not hesitate to push you to your death."

Did they ever care about your life?

"Shut up..."

The Primordial Dragon Sparrow trembled, suddenly looked up, and beneath its anger, it could no longer hide a trace of pain and hesitation.

"Stop deceiving yourself. This kind of power is not worth your loyalty, much less worth risking your life for," Mo Fan sighed softly.

After a long silence, the Ancient Dragon Sparrow finally sighed softly: "Perhaps the Zheng family is no longer the Zheng family it once was."

But my loyalty has never been to the Zheng family of today, but to the benefactor who saved me from the abyss of death back then.”

"He is the only benefactor in my life, someone I can only look up to."

"Who is he?" Mo Fan asked, frowning.

A flicker of reminiscence crossed the Ancient Dragon Sparrow's eyes, before it hardened again: "In short, give up on that idea. I will never submit to someone weaker than myself!"

Mo Fan was already slightly disappointed, but upon hearing this, he suddenly laughed, his tone relaxed: "If I were truly weaker than you, how could you have been captured here and unable to move?"

"That was a trick! You lured me into this bizarre space. Otherwise, how could you have trapped me!" The Primordial Dragon Sparrow snorted defiantly, its eyes darting around before it suddenly shouted, "If you have the guts, release me and fight me fair and square!"

"You monster, you're completely impervious to reason! Your master spared your life because of your hard-won cultivation, yet you keep babbling on and on!"

Before Mo Fan could speak, a small head suddenly popped up on his shoulder; it was Xiao Bai.

It raised its little head and scolded the Ancient Dragon Sparrow with a resentful look: "Why does the master need to take action to deal with you? This queen can beat you to a pulp!"

After the previous fusion of the curse seals, the little guy's cultivation has made great progress, and his courage has naturally increased a lot. He feels that he may be able to fight against this Primordial Dragon Sparrow, and naturally he also wants to avenge the serious injury he was seriously injured by the other party before.

Mo Fan was well aware of the little guy's thoughts, but he did not stop him. Instead, he looked at the Ancient Dragon Sparrow with a smile.

Sure enough, upon hearing Xiaobai's words, the Primordial Dragon Sparrow was first taken aback, then stared intently at Xiaobai and exclaimed in surprise, "Huh? It's you, you little bug?"

"You...you actually came out of the Void Ruins!?"

"No—what did you just call him? Master?"

"You, a mighty Great Sage Realm alien insect, actually submit to a half-step Great Sage?"

"You have utterly disgraced our Great Sage!"

In the end, the Ancient Dragon Sparrow had a look of utter disappointment on its face.

"Pooh!"

"What do you know? My master is the number one genius in the world. Although he is only at the half-step Great Saint level now, his strength is no weaker than any Great Saint cultivator!"

I lost to my master before, which is why I chose to follow him!

Aren't you the same?

You act all high and mighty, but aren't you just a prisoner of your master now?!

Xiao Bai said with a disdainful look.

"You... I'm naturally different!"

"If this kid hadn't used underhanded tricks, would I have been captured?"

Xiao Bai's words caused the Ancient Dragon Sparrow's face to turn red and then pale. He then looked at Mo Fan with disdain and said, "What bullshit about being the number one genius in the world!"

"All beings below the Great Sage are but ants. This little insect must have been under some kind of spell cast by you to lose its true nature and thus side with you!"

"If you've got the guts, let me go. Let's have a fair fight. If you can beat me, what's wrong with me leaving the Zheng family and joining your side?"

Upon hearing this, Mo Fan immediately laughed.

That's exactly what he wanted to hear!

"Fine, if you want to fight, why not have a fight with me?"

"However, the bargaining chips need to be changed. What I want is not followers, but spirit pets!"

As Mo Fan spoke, his gaze turned cold as he looked at the Primordial Dragon Sparrow, his tone icy: "If you lose, you will become my spirit pet from this day forward! You shall never betray me!!"

"you……!!"

Upon hearing this, the Ancient Dragon Sparrow was furious.

"What, you're scared now?" Mo Fan mocked.

"What's there to be afraid of?!"

The Primordial Dragon Sparrow was furious, then sneered, "But if you lose, you'll still have to become my pet. That's fair!"

"Although you are not qualified to bargain with me, I have always been kind and benevolent, so I will agree!"

After speaking, Mo Fan waved his hand and released all the restraints on the Primordial Dragon Sparrow!
