Siheyuan: I have a multi-dimensional chat group!

Xiao Shan sneered inwardly. How dare they spoil his fun at this moment!

After some time, when the gourd seeds grow into gourd vines and begin to flower and bear fruit, he will go and see for himself the so-called Seven-Colored Gourd Boys!

The banquet celebrating the tenth anniversary of the inauguration of the River God of Xianzhou River concluded successfully in a joyful atmosphere!

After seeing off the guests and dismissing the group of demon subordinates who still wanted to join in the fun, Xiao Shan left the two snake and scorpion demons behind and returned to the back hall to wait for news from Calabash Mountain.

"Your Majesties... Your Majesties, something terrible has happened!"

Not long after, the crab general guarding the Water Palace led in a demon. As soon as he entered, he shouted at the top of his lungs. It was the toad commander under the command of the snake and scorpion demons!

"Toad Commander, what's going on?" the Golden Serpent Demon scolded angrily. "Why aren't you apologizing to the River God? What kind of behavior is this, shouting and yelling like this?"

Although being left behind after the celebratory banquet was somewhat inexplicable, she didn't want her lesser demons to lose face in front of the River God. After all, she was one of the top-ranking demons under the River God!

"River God, please forgive me, River God, please forgive me..." The toad leader knelt down in fear and begged for forgiveness.

"It's alright!" Xiao Shan waved his hand dismissively. "You look flustered. Did something happen at Calabash Mountain?"

The two snake demons suddenly perked up and looked at the toad leader, waiting for his reply.

"Yes, yes, yes, it's because Calabash Mountain suddenly split in two!" the Toad Commander said urgently. "I was afraid something had happened, so I rushed over to report!"

In Xiao Shan's view, this Toad Commander was actually suspected of being a spy!

In the Calabash Brothers story, as soon as the Golden Snake Demon and the Scorpion Demon were defeated, this guy immediately ran to the Green Snake Demon's territory to report the news, and summoned this powerful demon to Calabash Mountain.

First of all, this guy must be related to the Green Snake Demon, otherwise he wouldn't have run to the Green Snake Demon to inform him as soon as the Snake and Scorpion Demons were finished.

Secondly, this guy should also have some connection with the mountain god of Hulu Mountain.

In the Calabash Brothers story, this guy is always present whenever the Golden Snake Demon and the Scorpion Demon encounter trouble.

Moreover, every time at a crucial moment, he would utter a few key words, leading the two viper demons further and further down the path of no return.

Of course, although he knew that Toad Commander had problems, Xiao Shan did not intend to take direct action to arrest him.

Sometimes, the two scorpion demons, who had lost their minds, needed this fellow's reminder to capture all seven gourd brothers in one fell swoop.

That way, he wouldn't have to personally deal with those seven clueless kids.

"What?! Calabash Mountain has split open?" The Golden Snake Demon and the Scorpion Demon suddenly stood up.

Qi Qi looked up and exchanged a glance with Xiao Shan, both understanding the meaning in each other's eyes: the gourd seed has been born!

"Yes, yes, Your Majesties, you should hurry back and take charge!" the Toad Commander said urgently. "The little demons in the cave are all terrified and don't know what to do!"

"River God, my master and I will return to Calabash Mountain immediately!" The Golden Serpent Demon didn't waste any time and bowed to take his leave. "If there's anything my master and I can do, River God, please just send someone to inform us!"

"Go ahead!" Xiao Shan waved his hand. "If there's any trouble at Hulu Mountain that they can't handle, I can go and lend a hand!"

"Thank you, River God!" The two snake and scorpion demons bowed again in gratitude.

Then, accompanied by the bewildered Toad Commander, they left the Immortal Continent River Palace and hurriedly rode their escape light towards Calabash Mountain.

Xiao Shan's divine sense covered an area of ​​a thousand miles without being withdrawn until the two snake and scorpion demons successfully returned to the Calabash Mountain, which had been split in two, without any unexpected incidents. Only then did he withdraw his divine sense, a strange sneer appearing on the corner of his mouth.

Is it the mountain god of Huangniling?

I'd like to see just how miraculous it really is!

For the next few months, the Xianzhou River remained calm and tranquil.

Meanwhile, things were bustling on Hulu Mountain. The mountain god, disguised as an old man, had successfully made the gourd seeds sprout and grow into gourd vines at an astonishing speed.

The entire Calabash Brothers story, from beginning to end, seems to have only lasted a few months!

The gourd vine can be considered a first-class spiritual root. Even the worst spiritual root would take at least a hundred years from the time the gourd seed sprouts to the time it grows, flowers, and bears fruit.

Even with spiritual water, the growth time can only be shortened by a few decades at most, and it is unlikely that the gourd seeds in Calabash Mountain will ripen and fall in a few months. But the gourd seeds in Calabash Mountain really did it.

If it wasn't artificially ripened, then the gourd seeds already have enough energy inside to flower and bear fruit!

Clearly, the latter is the most likely.

As for where the energy for the gourd seeds to grow comes from, it is naturally transformed from the essence lost from the snake and scorpion demons.

Furthermore, the mountain god had other methods for cultivating gourd seeds, which is why the gourd seeds sprouted, blossomed, and bore fruit in just a few months.

The gourds on the other side of Hulu Mountain have already flowered and borne fruit, and they are not far from ripening.

The two demons, the snake and the scorpion, haven't made a move yet, clearly waiting for the seven gourds to ripen one by one before making their move. Although the atmosphere is tense over there, nothing has really gone wrong yet.

Taking advantage of the situation, Xiao Shan sent his underlings to the main branch of Huangni Ridge to gather information.

Fortunately, the God of Huangni Ridge is quite famous. He controls the Huangni Ridge mountain range, which stretches for thousands of miles and has dozens of branch mountain ranges. He is a well-known figure in the demon realm, which spans tens of thousands of miles.

I've heard that even the most famous demon gods within a million miles wouldn't easily provoke the Mountain God of Huangni Ridge, so he must be a powerful cultivator.

Putting aside everything else, the fact that all the demons in the main region of Huangni Ridge have been recruited by the Huangni Ridge Mountain God and become his henchmen demonstrates his immense power.

This is the Demon Realm, and although it's only on the edge, it's not a place where a Heavenly Court subordinate god like the Mountain God can act arrogantly.

In particular, it is taboo in the demon realm for a mountain god, a deity, to recruit or command monsters.

One wrong move could lead to an attack by a horde of demons, or even a war between the Heavenly Court and the Demon Realm.

The Mountain God of Huangni Ridge not only did this, but he is still safe and sound, which shows his great strength and that he is not an insignificant figure in the Heavenly Court.

If it were a one-on-one fight, Xiao Shan would naturally not take the Huangni Ridge Mountain God seriously.

What he was worried about was the Heavenly Court behind the Huangniling Mountain God!

This is the most troublesome aspect of dealing with powerful entities in higher systems. They have the backing of organizations and immense power. If you defeat the weak, the strong will come; if you defeat the strong, the even stronger will come.

Putting everything else aside, if the Huangniling Mountain God summons his superior, it will be a bit troublesome for Xiaoshan to handle the situation.

Fortunately, even the mountain god of Huangni Ridge doesn't know much about Hulu Mountain, otherwise the influence of the Huluwa story wouldn't always be limited to the Hulu Mountain area.

Xiao Shan had very little to do. The two snake demons asked him to restrain the mountain god of Huangni Ridge, probably just to be on the safe side.

He was confident he could handle it; simply restraining them would be quite easy, and he could at least buy the two serpent demons half a year.

The Calabash Brothers story isn't very long, and in that time, everything that needed to be done was accomplished.

Whether the two snake demons can escape their fate of being tortured to death by the Calabash Brothers will only be a matter of months.

Sending minor demons to gather information about the mountain god of Huangni Ridge is merely a precaution; Xiao Shan doesn't believe there's any possibility of directly engaging in combat with him.

Although the information gathered was limited, it was enough for Xiaoshan to gain a general understanding of the Huangni Ridge Mountain God.

This guy is a tough character; if he knew about what happened at Hulu Mountain, he probably wouldn't let go so easily.

Of course, the mountain god of Calabash Mountain wouldn't fare well either, which is probably the main reason why he kept the Calabash Brothers a secret.

While Xiao Shan dispatched lesser demons to gather information about the mountain god of Huangni Ridge, he also kept a close watch on Hulu Mountain, with at least three groups of lesser demons monitoring the situation there at all times.

"What? The gourd seeds that old man planted are already ready to flower and bear fruit?" Xiao Shan was quite surprised. Looking at the little demon below who was responsible for monitoring, he asked again to confirm, "Really?"

"River God, the gourd seed has indeed grown into a gourd vine, and it has blossomed and borne fruit, with seven small gourds hanging from it!" The little demon in charge of monitoring Gourd Mountain answered cautiously, "I also feel it's very strange!"

"Alright, I already know about this!" Xiao Shan waved his hand, dismissing the little demon who had returned to report.

Then he summoned a little demon, gave him some instructions, and waved for him to do it immediately.

He wanted to ask why the two snake and scorpion demons didn't take the opportunity to snatch the gourd vine directly and then wait for the seven gourds to grow slowly, instead of handing over all the initiative to the old man who was actually the mountain god.

We always wait until the gourds mature and come looking for trouble before we try to find a way to deal with them; it's too passive.

Within two days, the two viper demons replied.

Xiao Shan was speechless for a long time, and could only say that the two snake demons deserved to be piled up.

It turns out that in order to maximize the effects of the gourds in the Calabash Brothers' bodies, only through fierce battles can their abilities be fully unleashed, and the seven gourds collected in the end will be the most perfect.

What else can Xiaoshan say about this?

The two demons, the snake and the scorpion, really went to great lengths to get the Seven Star Pill.

They're already preparing to hand over the Seven Star Pills to the Water Palace as offerings, so why bother with all that?

All I can say is that the two snake demons, back on Calabash Mountain, started to get confused again.

It's unclear whether this is due to Hulu Mountain itself, or if the mountain god of Hulu Mountain used some kind of trick.

Xiao Shan never expected that while he was sitting in the Immortal Continent River Water Mansion, leisurely waiting for the farce at Hulu Mountain to begin, a huge change would occur on Hulu Mountain.

The cave where the snake and scorpion demons lived was littered with corpses. The lesser demons, who appeared quite a few times in the story, died quite quickly and cleanly, with few wounds on their bodies. They just lay peacefully on the ground, as if they were fast asleep.

However, their aura had completely vanished, and they had turned into corpses.

At the very heart of the cave, the two snake and scorpion demons lay paralyzed on the ground, their faces pale. They stared in terror at the imposing figure before them, speechless, whether from serious injury or sheer fright.

The strangest thing is that the old man in the story is now standing respectfully to the side, like a servant, not daring to even breathe too loudly, and his face is slightly pale.

"Hehe, you demons don't need to worry about the seven gourds on the gourd vine. I will take care of them myself. Go!"

The tall, imposing man, radiating divine power, waved his hand, unleashing a dazzling divine light that instantly enveloped the two severely wounded and dying snake and scorpion demons. When the divine light faded, only the corpses of a giant golden-ringed snake and a scorpion remained on the ground.

"My Lord, now that you've killed the two snake demons, I'm afraid the River God of the Immortal Continent won't let this go!"

The mountain god of Calabash Mountain, disguised as an old man, felt no joy upon seeing the corpses of the snake and scorpion demons. Instead, he felt a deep sense of sorrow for the fallen, and cautiously offered a warning.

"Hmph, just another monster!" The imposing figure sneered repeatedly. "If he doesn't come, fine, but if he dares to cause trouble, I won't hesitate to make him disappear completely!"

"The Supreme God's divine might is boundless!" The old man hurriedly flattered him, feeling uneasy, and dared not say another word.

"Well, don't slack off either!" the figure exuding divine power reminded him. "Raise the seven gourds as soon as possible. I'll send one of my powerful demon subordinates to put on a show for them. Once the Seven Star Pill is refined, you'll naturally reap the rewards!"

"Rest assured, Your Majesty!" the old man hurriedly assured him, "This humble god will certainly cooperate fully!"

"Hmm!" The figure, exuding divine power, waved his hand.

After the old man left, he grasped a jade ruyi and a gleaming sword, and chuckled, "I didn't expect those two little demons to have such fine treasures in their hands!"

……

The atmosphere at the Xianzhou River Palace was somber and oppressive.

"What? The mountain god of Huangni Ridge launched a surprise attack on the cave of the snake and scorpion demons and has already killed them all?" Staring at the strangely shaped little demons kneeling on the ground in front of him, Xiao Shan said in a cold voice, "Is that fellow still lingering in Calabash Mountain?"

"Yes, yes, river god, spare my life!"

The group of little demons kneeling on the ground were the same group of little demons that Xiao Shan had sent to monitor Calabash Mountain.

They suddenly rushed back today, telling Xiao Shan some shocking news.

The mountain god of Huangni Ridge suddenly launched a surprise attack, catching the snake and scorpion demons off guard and killing them. Even their lesser demons were almost all wiped out!

The reason why the mountain god of Huangni Ridge released all the little demons who were monitoring Hulu Mountain is obvious.

After asking a series of detailed questions, Xiao Shan gained a general understanding of the sudden changes at Calabash Mountain. Only then did he wave his hand to dismiss the group of terrified little demons.

What a good idea!

They really don't take me, the river god of the Immortal Continent, seriously!

Xiao Shan's face remained calm, his expression returning to its usual placid state, but his heart was filled with murderous intent, and he was determined to kill the Huangni Ridge Mountain God who had suddenly made his move.

Needless to say, the matter of the gourd seeds and the seven gourds has been completely exposed.

Moreover, it is estimated that the mountain god of Huangniling also coveted the Seven Star Pill, which is why he dared to launch such a shameless sneak attack.

Hey, I only found out a little bit about this guy before, I didn't expect him to be so audacious as to rush to Calabash Mountain without saying a word and infringe on the interests of the Immortal Continent River Water Mansion.

As for the so-called goodwill expressed by the Huangniling Mountain God, who took the initiative to release the few groups of little demons who were monitoring the movements of Hulu Mountain, how could Xiaoshan possibly appreciate it?

"Since you have the audacity to come and provoke me, then enjoy my wrath!"

Xiao Shan summoned his water demon subordinates and had them prepare a challenge letter, which he then sent to the mountain god of Huangni Ridge, who was temporarily residing in Hulu Mountain.

Meanwhile, the Immortal Continent River Water Palace entered a state of emergency, immediately summoning the monsters from all the mountains and water palaces under its jurisdiction. Xiao Shan planned to give the Huangni Ridge Mountain God a good beating, to show him what it means to be a local tyrant!
