Demon Lord's Reincarnation

"Are you not going to say anything? Since you\'re not speaking then-" Ren was about to say die but Mo Fan interrupted him.

"I apologize, Sir, we didn\'t mean to attack you. It was because of various circumstances that we were forced to do what we did."

Mo Fan started to explain what happened while Ren was asleep. He tried his very best to explain everything without fumbling. It wasn\'t an exaggeration to say that the words he spoke now would decide the life and death of the Mo Clan.

While Mo Fan was telling his tale to Ren, The Patriarch and the Four Elders were communicating via telepathy.

\'That person is a monster disguised as a mortal! That pressure he was emitting was something I have never felt before.\' The Second Elder screamed internally.

\'I was already expecting him to be stronger when he\'s awake, but this is beyond what I was expecting. His flesh alone was able to fight against all of us, and now his aura alone could suppress all of us. If he decides to kill us all, the only way to survive is if we ask the Ancestor to intervene.\' Despite sounding calm on the outside, the First Elder was the most shocked by what happened.

\'... It\'s not as simple as you think... Even if we call upon the Ancestor\'s help we might not be able to win...\'

When the others heard what the Patriarch, Mo Han said they became silent. They did not doubt Mo Han\'s words since among the five of them the closest to the Ancestor was Mo Han. Seeing as Mo Han\'s cultivation was on the verge of becoming a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator, he was also considered the strongest member of the Clan not counting the Ancestor. So what he says had weight and could not be ignored.

\'Then what should we do?\'

\'If he decides to kill us the only thing we can do is retreat back to the Clan and activate the Protective Array Formation. Even if he\'s at the peak of the Nascent Soul Realm, the Protective Array Formation of the Clan should be able to withstand his onslaught.\'

\'So that\'s the plan hide inside the Clan, for how long?\'

\'Surely even he would give up after a couple of decades.\'

As the Patriarch and Elders were having their discussion, Mo Fan was nearly done telling Ren everything that happened during his sleep. Once he was done Mo Fan pounded his head onto the ground as he spoke with the utmost sincerity.

"Sir, please forgive us for what we have done. If you truly need to take a life, I shall take responsibility and offer up mine, but please spare the others." Mo Fan took out his sword and was ready to kill himself but Ren raised his hand stopping him.

"There\'s no need for that. Also you five you\'ve been communicating using some sort of spell since a while ago, don\'t think I haven\'t noticed."

When Mo Han and the Elders heard what Ren said they stopped their telepathy and knelt on the ground.

"Sir, we apologize if that has offended you." The five were quick to act and actually responded in a synchronized way.

"Fine, I accept your apologies I just found it a little rude since I was in the middle of deciding your fates. Now I have my verdict."

The group from the Mo Clan held their breaths as they waited. This was a new feeling for the Patriarch and the four Elders as they had always been the ones to give their judgment on others. Even when they were younger they were already of high status so there was none that was able to do this to them.

"I will spare your lives, but I have two conditions."

When they heard Ren\'s verdict the members of the Mo Clan sighed in relief.

"What do you need from us?"

"Don\'t worry the two conditions are quite simple to fulfill. The first condition is you guys need to give me a place to stay and provide me with my daily necessities."

"We will offer you the best we can provide." Mo Han felt relieved that the first condition was a rather simple one.

"Okay, the second condition is, I want you to bring me to the strongest person in the vicinity."

When the members of the Mo Clan heard the second condition they were shocked. The strongest person in the vicinity was obviously their Ancestor. Why did this person want to meet the Ancestor?

"Is there a problem?" Hearing Ren\'s voice the members of the Mo Clan woke up from their dazed states.

"Umm... Sir, I\'m sorry but I have to ask, why do you need to meet the strongest person in the vicinity?"

"It\'s to challenge him to a duel, of course."

Ren was amused as he looked at the reactions of the members of Mo Clan to what he said. He could already guess that the supposed strongest person in the vicinity should be someone they know.

"Sir, I-" Mo Han was about to say that he was the strongest person in the vicinity but before he could say it, Ren had raised his hand.

"I\'m going to warn you just once, so listen carefully. Do not take me for a fool, and lie to me."

Ren\'s tone was filled with killing intent, which made Mo Han shudder, he then saw, Ren, looking at him with his deep dark eyes. He knew that if he said the wrong thing, not only him but his entire clan would perish.

"Sir, please, I will grant any other condition except for that one! I beg of you, please change the second condition!" The Patriarch bowed his head.

"Please, Sir!" The other members of the Mo Clan spoke as they too bowed their heads.
