Hearing Li Dao's words, the two demons fell silent.

After a while, the serpent demon clutched its stomach and laughed. Its charming face was twisted in a smile, and its sharp and ear-piercing voice echoed within the cave.

The scorpion spirit also let out a carefree laugh.

Li Yao understood immediately when he thought about it. The two demons had been trapped in the mountain for who knows how many years by the Gourd Mountain God. Finally, the final pangolin monster broke through the mountain and released them.

The Devil Snakes and Scorpion Essences that had been suppressed for countless years naturally held great resentment towards the mountain god.

However, Li Dao felt that things were not that simple. To be able to suppress the Devil Snake and the Scorpion Essence, even if the Mountain Spirit wasn't at the Earthly Immortal level, it should at least be at the peak of the Immortal Soul Stage.

Moreover, how could a Pangolin be able to shake the mountain god's seal? There must be something fishy about it.

He contacted the old man who was possessed at the foot of the mountain. Maybe the old man was possessed by the mountain god, so what was the mountain god's motive for doing so?

While Li Dao was pondering over these problems, the Devil Snake and the Scorpion Essence were also laughing happily.

"I lost my composure just now and made Young Master Li laugh. I have something to take care of, so I'll have you take good care of Young Master Li, Scorpion." The snake demon said this before hurriedly retreating with the snake body.

Looking at the Devil Snake's figure, Li Dao knew that she had gone to use the mirror to check out the real situation.

The Scorpion Spirit sat in the cave and did not say anything. He and Li Dao had never fought in the first place.

One man and one demon sat in the cave, the atmosphere was somewhat gloomy. Li Dao fiddled with his nails, not caring about the attitude of the Scorpion Essence.

After obtaining the Seven Star Core, the two demons would die. Li Dao would be slightly envious of the jade ruyi in the Devil Snake's hands.

The ruyi scepter had a myriad of changes. It was an extraordinary treasure, but no one knew where the Devil Snake had come from.

After sitting for an hour, the snake-demon returned with a smile on his face.

"Young Master Li is right. I'll get someone to capture that old man and force him to give me the Seven Star Pill formula."

The Devil Snake immediately brought a group of lesser demons with him as he prepared to go down the mountain. Li Dao thought for a moment and then followed the Devil Snake.

Outside the thatched cottage at the foot of the mountain, the old man was sitting in the shade of a shed.

A few of the bigger gourds shook as they chirped for their grandfather. Their voices were crisp and clear, as if they were the voices of a seven or eight year old child.

The old man sat in the shed and scanned the mountain. His originally cloudy eyes flashed with a bright light.

Just as the old man was looking up the mountain, the snake demon brought a group of lesser demons to the thatched cottage.

Li Dao leisurely followed behind the serpent demon and landed on the ground.

Seeing this group of demons, the old man's acting was stiff. He pretended to be flustered and shouted, "Witch, what are you doing here?"

This act of his was really fake. Li Dao could not stand it any longer. A normal person's first reaction upon seeing a demon was to flee. How could a demon be questioned?

However, the snake demon did not find anything amiss. Her eyes were currently shining as she examined the seven gourds on the gourd.

"Men! Capture this old man!" The snake demon laughed. She could already feel that these gourds were extraordinary.

The lesser demons swarmed forward and easily caught the old man.

On top of the calabash vine, several gourds were shaking vigorously, struggling to land on the ground as they yelled, "Fey, let go of my grandfather!"

"Demoness, let go of my grandfather!"

However, no matter how the gourds swayed, they were still immature and could not fall down.

The snake demon laughed and turned around to ride the demonic wind, heading back to the cave at the mountainside.

Li Dao watched from the side. The gourds were as innocent as ants on a hot pan. However, the old man was not flustered at all when he was caught by the demons. It was strange when he did not shout.

After returning to the cave, the Snake Demon easily found the formula for the Seven Star Pellet from the old man's body and pressed him down before locking him up.
