Chapter 402

“My door will always be open for you to come back, as long as you’re not back to try and make life difficult for me,” said Su Jin with a smile.

The Demon Lord stared at Su Jin intently, then suddenly gave him a hug. After letting go of him, she too, smiled and said, “Thank you. I’ve been very happy during this time and I hope we’ll be able to meet again in the future.”

“I hope we’ll still be able to speak to one another peacefully like this the next time we meet,” said Su Jin.

The Demon Lord didn’t comment on that and just said, “Do me one last favor. Here are some spatial coordinates, send me to this location.”

The Demon Lord pressed a finger against Su Jin’s forehead, and a complex set of coordinates appeared in his mind. He did not refuse her request and waved his hand so that a gap in space opened in front of them.

She did not waste any time either and leaped into the gap after waving goodbye to Su Jin. The other side of the gap was a temple in ruins.

This should have been an extremely majestic temple set up by many elder gods. It was once occupied by more than a dozen top tier gods like herself. But right now, the previous cycle had ended, the current cycle was also coming to an end, and the universe of the previous cycle had been destroyed. The barely surviving elder gods were clearly not doing any better.

“Perhaps… I’m also a problem left behind by the previous cycle!” The Demon Lord sighed. She had come to the remains of the universe from the previous cycle. Because she was not good at manipulating space and time, even someone as powerful as herself should not have been able to return to this place. But thankfully, she had Su Jin to help her.

“Hmm? Looks like someone came back before. But if you want to come back here, besides having the ability to travel through space, you’ve got to at least be a high level god… wait. This is… these are traces of the Mad Hatter.” The Demon Lord had worked together with the Mad Hatter before, so she knew his presence well and was quickly able to identify who had come back here.

But even if she couldn’t identify the traces, she could still make an educated guess that it was the Mad Hatter. Among the few surviving elder gods, the Mad Hatter was probably the only one who was able to manipulate space and was also a high level god.

“What is your aim? The treasures of the top tier gods? It’s too bad… as a high level god, even if you manage to get in here, you won’t be able to find them, because… those things were specially left behind by us!” The Demon Lord clapped her hands together, and a bright light started flickering from beneath the ruins of the temple.

In no time, a door of light appeared in the middle of the temple, and another brilliant light was flickering within. She quickly went in and came out again with a mirror in her hand.

She input her energy into the mirror and another door of light immediately shot out from the mirror. The door was flung open, and she reached in to grab someone out of the door. That person turned out to be Jing Hua.

Jing Hua looked completely confused and had no idea what in the world was happening. The Demon Lord continued reaching in to grab hold of Phoenix, the Dog God, and Tiny and pulled all three of them out as well.

“This sort of power… you’re an elder god?!” The four of them did not put up a fight because they realized how powerful the Demon Lord was. Putting up a fight would only result in their deaths.

But she couldn’t be bothered to entertain them. She pointed at the area where the treasures were hidden and said, “From today onward, you’re going to train with me here.”

Jing Hua and the rest exchanged glances but did not dare to say anything. They obediently went to the place she was pointing at, and their eyes widened once they set foot inside. This was like heaven for those who wanted to train themselves up. It was like being in the Grave of the Gods again.

“Is that… are those weapons made by gods?” Jing Hua noticed a pile of weapons and other Spirit Power equipment. They were randomly lying in a corner, but they sparkled brightly.

Jing Hua could hardly believe his own eyes, and his companions looked equally astonished. It was all super high grade Spirit Power equipment, yet it had just been left to pile up in a corner like that?

The Demon Lord ignored their shock and astonishment. She just needed these fellows to train themselves sufficiently and become gods, that’s all. Meanwhile, she walked further in where there was a well.

The well glowed with a gentle, warm, white light. It was impossible to see what was inside the well from above, but it felt like it was something extremely pure and sacred, something that gave one the urge to fall down and worship.

“Grow up quickly!” The Demon Lord stood at the well with a strand of hair in her hands. She threw the strand into the well and the glow of the well suddenly grew much brighter than before.

She gave a pleased nod, and there was a sly smile on her face as she murmured, “This will surprise that fellow when the time comes!”

Back in Su Jin’s house, the three demons had already transformed into humans. To play safe, Su Jin gave Situ Jin a call, then teleported the man straight into the house.

“Can you respect my work for once? I’ve got another operation coming up!” Situ Jin snapped at Su Jin. He was very powerful now, but any powers he had were meant for protecting his country and not to lord it over others.

Su Jin grinned and said, “Looks like someone has been working hard, huh? I can see that you’ve improved in many aspects.”

Situ Jin was about to say something when he noticed the three demons standing behind Su Jin. The demons had morphed into humans, but they still exuded an extraordinary aura that was noticeable.

Bifang was a handsome and confident woman, with an ambitious and almost crazed look in her eyes. That gaze alone was enough to make an ordinary person collapse in fright.

Daitengu was a handsome man whose every action oozed with elegance, which would make one wonder if he was royalty or something.

But the one who caught Situ Jin’s attention the most was the Nine-tailed Fox. Her charming face that could win the hearts of millions was simply too mesmerizing. Situ Jin was very resilient now, but even he couldn’t help but stare at her for a few more seconds.

“Who are these three people?” Situ Jin asked Su Jin after he had calmed himself down.

Su Jin didn’t hide anything from Situ Jin and proceeded to introduce them, “This is Miss Bifang.”

“Miss Bi Fang? We do have a family with the surname Bi, but I never knew the family had such an outstanding daughter.” Situ Jin knew everything about all the families in the nation. He was the head of the Department of Supernatural Affairs, after all.

But Bifang smiled faintly and said, “Of course you’ve never heard of me. It’s because I’m not someone from this world in the first place. Hello there, I am Bifang, the celestial beast of fire!”

The hand she stretched toward Situ Jin burst into flames, which stunned Situ Jin for a moment. But he nodded and then shook her hand, disregarding the flames.

Bifang was rather surprised by how bold Situ Jin was, but Situ Jin wasn’t just being bold without good reason. He firstly believed that as a friend, Su Jin would not allow him to be harmed, and secondly, Bifang was supposed to be a celestial beast that could control all sorts of fire. If Bifang was unable to control a hand’s worth of fire and hurt someone as a result, then there was no way she could call herself a celestial beast.

“This gentleman here is Mr. Daitengu,” Su Jin continued to introduce the next person.

“The tengu of Japanese myths, or the one in China who ate the moon?” asked Situ Jin.

“The Japanese one,” said Su Jin.

Daitengu stretched a hand toward Situ Jin and said, “Hello there. You’re Mr. Su’s friend, so you are my friend from now on too.”

“Of course, of course,” said Situ Jin with a faint smile. He then turned to the Nine-tailed Fox and asked, “What about this lady over here?”

“Hoho… as Chinese people, we should be very familiar with her. According to our legends, she’s from the Shang Dynasty, so… guess who she is!” said Su Jin with some anticipation.

But Situ Jin arrived at an answer immediately and said, “Given how mesmerizing her facial features are and the fact that she’s from the Shang Dynasty, then she must be… the Nine-tailed Fox, correct?”

“You’ve got such a clever friend, Mr. Su! That is correct, I come from the Shang Dynasty and I’m the Nine-tailed Fox who enchanted the emperor back then.” One glance from her was enough to make a man die for her, but she did not use her enchantment skills on Situ Jin because she did not want to offend Su Jin, but Su Jin was actually secretly hoping otherwise.
