Chapter 50: The Dog You Raised Caused Trouble
“A Golden Core Cultivator?!”
The first Dog Demon barked in shock. The three of them had wreaked havoc across Suzhou, suppressing countless human cultivators—yet none had even reached Foundation Establishment. How had a Golden Core Cultivator suddenly appeared? With their feeble intelligence, the Dog Demons couldn’t grasp the complexities of human society’s rules.
“Full force!”
A strange energy flickered around the three Dog Demons, allowing them to break free simultaneously.
Demonic aura surged as the trio revealed their monstrous forms—jagged fangs glinting, crimson eyes locked on Dragon Guards’ Si Mo. Though only at Foundation Establishment, their combined power now rivaled a Golden Core cultivator. Officials outside were flung back by the demonic waves, arrows bouncing harmlessly off the thick aura.
Despite their numbers, the humans couldn’t scratch the demons’ fur. These martial arts-trained officials were mere ants before Transcendent beings, utterly powerless.
“So this is a real monster? Horrifying!”
“Thank the heavens Lord Si Mo came! We’d have been slaughtered by these Dog Demons.”
Pale-faced officials scrambled beyond the battle zone, knowing their presence only hindered the Dragon Guards’ expert.
“Hm?”
Si Mo frowned. That strange energy from the Dog Demons had briefly felt stronger than his own Golden Core cultivation. Impossible. The strongest known cultivator was Master Jie Ming of Cold Mountain Temple—still at Golden Core. No higher realms had been reported since the world’s transformation.

Must’ve imagined it. Capture first, questions later.
Si Mo thrust his palm forward. Spiritual energy coalesced into a Sealing Spell that crashed downward.
The Dog Demons howled as one, demonic aura surging upward in rippling waves to block the attack. Their heads tilted skyward, a phantom blood-red moon materializing above the temple.
Heavenly Dog Howls at the Moon!
The three beasts formed a triangle beneath the crimson illusion—a manifestation of pure demonic power.
“Toxin?”
Si Mo staggered as his thoughts thickened, limbs growing sluggish. Cultivators guarding the entrance collapsed screaming, poisoned without crossing the threshold.
“What sorcery is this? These mutts have a patron!”
Cold dread gripped Si Mo. Background-backed demons were worst—untouchable without risking vengeance. Offending hidden powers… Unthinkable. Since the world shifted, gaps between cultivation realms became chasms. Post-Golden Core? Might as well measure the sky.
Retreat plans formed.
Channeling his Golden Core, Si Mo forced clarity. Another Sealing Spell blast scattered the demons, disrupting the blood moon. He turned to flee—investigate first, act later.
The Dog Demons saw only retreat. Victory!
“Fleeing?”
“Xiao Di! Enlighten him!” barked the leader.
CRACK!
The left Dog Demon blurred across the courtyard, swiping Si Mo backward. Claws shredded his sleeve—a heartbeat slower would’ve spilled blood.
“You court death!”
Si Mo glared at his torn robe, frost in his gaze.
He’d considered sparing their master’s pride. Now? Let their master come. No mercy remained.
“Spiritual Energy Boils the Sea!”
A massive surge of spiritual energy erupted from Si Mo, instantly flooding the entire temple. The invisible energy locked down the building, creating a translucent cage that blocked all escape routes for the Three Dog Demons. The spiritual energy then churned like boiling water, causing temperatures to skyrocket. Flames erupted throughout the temple – wooden beams caught fire, and statues spontaneously combusted!
Invisible spiritual energy became visible flames, burning everything in the area.
“Too hot!”
The Three Dog Demons howled in pain, their spells collapsing as they scrambled to flee. Their small brains couldn’t figure out why the guy who’d been about to flee suddenly went wild.
Humans were terrifying! All schemes and tricks!
The demon creatures, after all, were just demon creatures. Human strategies often baffled them.
Now they wanted to run, but Si Mo gave no quarter. The blazing energy coalesced into a flaming giant that merged with the temple’s central statue. With an earth-shaking CRASH, the wooden idol came alive. A massive fiery palm slammed toward the Three Dog Demons.
“Fight!”
“Use the master’s gift!”
Desperate, the Three Dog Demons opened their jaws. A white flash shot from the middle demon’s mouth. Though victory seemed certain, Si Mo’s instincts screamed danger – too late.
BOOM!!!
The explosion obliterated the already crumbling temple. Si Mo took seventy percent of the blast force. Blood sprayed from his mouth as he flew backward like a ragdoll. The Three Dog Demons, protected by an unknown power, remained unharmed despite their singed fur.
“Grab him!”
“He made us waste master’s power! Subdue him!”
The Dog Demons regained their nerve, shouting to capture Si Mo of the Dragon Guards. Watching Officials gaped in disbelief.
A Dragon Guards expert… defeated by dogs?
Qing Stone Alley.
Zuo Meng opened his eyes, instantly understanding everything. When he’d spread martial teachings at Cold Mountain Temple years ago, he’d brought back some Buddhist scriptures. The Three Dog Demons, influenced by his presence, had pawed through those texts. Over time, three stray puppies grew into demons, trying to imitate the scriptures’ esteemed monks by “enlightening” humans.
Zuo Meng had initially ignored them. But the mutts grew bolder, eventually becoming Suzhou’s notorious demon gang – until they attracted the Dragon Guards’ attention.
He glanced at the empty doghouse by his gate, sighing.
Those three dirt dogs he’d casually enlightened years ago… Now they’d grown arrogant enough to attack officials.
