n“Beelzebub, I need to go to hell. Summon me with your true form.”

n“Human, do you know how much I have to pay for summoning you? A hundred souls!”

nChen Zhao took out a small bag of perfect crystal powder. “Is this enough to compensate for your loss?”

n“Of course. It’s my pleasure.” Beelzebub accepted the trade without hesitation.

n“Human, I can summon you too,” Raymond suddenly interrupted.

nHe would snatch whatever Beelzebub had.

n“Master, did you forget about me?” Carrie was similarly unwilling to be left out. “I also want to invite you to my house.”

n“I’ll go next time when I have the chance.”

n“Are you two not ashamed for inviting a living to your rural places? My house is only three days away from Fallen City.” Beelzebub looked as if he was from a more developed place.

n“Do you believe that I can bite you to death?” Raymond opened his mouth, as though he was going to devour Beelzebub alive. “My house is close to Endless Abyss. Human, if you follow me, I can bring you to visit the edge of Endless Abyss. That’s a must-see attraction of Hell. How dare you say that you’ve been to Hell without going to Endless Abyss?”

n“What’s special about Endless Abyss? It’s just a big pit. The holes in your heads are big enough already. Master, my hometown is the famous Frozen Kingdom. You will see the most exquisite icy scenery, where millions of souls have been turned into ice statues. It will certainly be a feast to your eyes.”

n“Err… I’m not going there as a tourist…”

nChen Zhao was speechless. His demons were like illegal tour guides trying to persuade their client.

nHowever, Chen Zhao still decided to go to Beelzebub’s territory. After all, he had been there once already and was more familiar with the place.

nAs for Endless Abyss and Frozen Kingdom, Chen Zhao was somewhat creeped out by their names alone.

nLast time, Beelzebub had summoned Chen Zhao when he was asleep.

nThis time, however, Beelzebub summoned Chen Zhao when he was awake. Chen Zhao appeared in a different location from last time.

nHowever, it was not far away from Black Mountain Village. Soon, Beelzebub’s true form found Chen Zhao.

n“Human, come up to my hand.”

nAfter the experience last time, Chen Zhao was already used to everything.

n“Human, where do you plan to go this time?”

n“To the Black Mountain Village. Beelzebub, will you demons also fall ill?”

n“Yes. Oh, you’re a doctor. Do you want to treat demons? No way. Human medicine is definitely useless for demons.”

n“I recently learned some demon’s art of healing from Blackie’s castle. Its original owner developed it, so I want to try it on a few ill demons.”

n“Demon’s art of healing? We never had the idea of treatment in Hell.”

n“So what if a demon is sick or injured?”

n“Either its body is strong enough to recover, or it dies. Simple as that.”

n“Simple? That sounds like it’s just waiting to die.”

n“Only you weak humans need medicine.”

n“Next time if you’re ill, don’t ask me for help.”

n“Of course I wouldn’t ask you.”

n“You said it yourself.”

nAs the two bickered with each other, Beelzebub had already brought Chen Zhao into Black Mountain Village.

nChen Zhao’s second arrival also attracted the attention of many demons, but the stir was not as strong as the first time.

n“The great living, why didn’t you summon me?”

n“I heard that you’ve summoned Bloody Hunter. I’m an even more outstanding demon warrior. I hope that I’ll have the chance to serve you.”

n“I heard that Raz has been summoned twice, while I’ve been waiting for your summoning all the time. I’ll become your most loyal fighter.”

n“I also wish that I can go to the human world.”

n“The respected living, I cost less than Bloody Hunter. I’m even willing to serve you for free.”

nDemons started to surround Chen Zhao. They had learned from Bloody Hunter long ago that the human before them was very generous. Bloody Hunter had received a piece of demonic crystal after just doing him a small favor.

nIt was almost impossible for inferior demons like them to obtain demonic crystals.

nHowever, they would have the chance to if they could receive Chen Zhao’s recognition.

nTherefore, all the demons seemed to be more fervent than last time.

n“Mr. living.” Bloody Hunter walked out from the group of demons and saluted at Chen Zhao. “I’m honored by your arrival. How may I help you?”

n“Damn, you abject hybrids! Did you forget that your lord is right here?”

n“…” Chen Zhao rolled his eyes at Beelzebub. “Ignore him.”

n“I’m so mad! I’m leaving.” Beelzebub pretentiously opened his wings and flew into the sky.

n“Right. Is anyone in your village ill?”

n“I know that the mudman living in the ruined cave on the edge of the mountain is ill. Mr. living, I’ll bring him here now,” Bloody Hunter answered readily. The demons around Chen Zhao also looked like they were willing to help.

nBefore Chen Zhao could stop them, the group of demons charged towards the ruined cave in a formidable array.

nSoon, the extremely ugly mudman was dragged out by the group of demons.

nRules were set by the powerful, while laws were present to protect the weak.

nThere were rules in Hell, but not laws.

nTherefore, the greatest original sin in Hell was being weak.

nThe mudman was both depressed and confused. Usually, he lived alone in the ruined cave. He had neither offended anyone nor had treasures of any value to other demons. A few dozen demons had just charged out from the village for no reason and dragged him out from his home by force.

n“Mr. living, we’ve already brought the dirty mudman here.”

nThe mudman’s face was filled with panic. He had also heard that their village had welcomed a living human, but he had never seen the human before.

nAt the moment, the human was in the village again. Why did he want to see me?

nDid I offend him without even knowing it?!

n“The honored living, may the humble I ask if I have accidentally offended you?” The mudman stared at Chen Zhao in horror. “Oh right. I caught two human souls in the River of Death yesterday. Are they your friends or relatives? I will return them to you.”

n“No. I heard that you’re ill. Is that right?” Chen Zhao asked.

n“Yes. I have been infested by Hellbugs. They keep eating my flesh and blood away. It’s really irritating.”

n“The rest of you can leave now. I’ll call you if I need help.”

nRealizing that Chen Zhao was not planning to harm mudman, the group of demons left. Only Bloody Hunter stayed behind, claiming that he was going to serve Chen Zhao.

n“I’m a doctor in the human world, that is, I treat those who are ill. Recently, I’ve come across some special art of healing which can be used to treat demons, so I want to try it on you. What do you think?”

n“Mr. living, I heard that in the human world, patients have to pay the doctor for treatment. I have nothing, so I can’t afford the fees.”

n“No need. You’re my first demon patient, so I wouldn’t charge you.”

n“Really?”

nSlap!

nBloody Hunter struck the mudman’s mud-like face with his claws, mutilating his face. Of course, the mudman already looked like that in the first place.

n“Don’t question the words of Mr. living.”

nBloody Hunter was definitely an excellent cat’s paw. He already started to help Chen Zhao establish his reputation without Chen Zhao asking.
