They show their cards, and I can keep playing mine under the table…
Duge instantaneously grasped this principle.
No.
He seized the business opportunity.
From now on, everything he did had to be trade-related; he had to coerce himself into a new role.
“Speak, if you can’t make a clear point, I’ll blow your brains out.” Duge’s gaze was grim, and with his tattooed arms and the gun in his hand, he looked particularly ferocious.
Phew!
The young man breathed a sigh of relief. Although the guy in front of him seemed ferocious, as long as there was a chance to speak, he could survive.
He had carefully studied the growth history of Feng Qi.
Although his teacher repeatedly insisted that it wasn’t imitable, he believed that Feng Qi’s experience could be entirely replicated, and moreover, that he could quickly accumulate a huge advantage in the early stages, making success highly likely.
Even if there were risks later on, as long as he had the strength, what couldn’t he overcome?
Fortune favors the bold.
Besides, like Feng Qi, he was ambushed right at the start; this same experience was like a chance given by heaven…
“Brother Hu, this is of great importance, can I speak with you alone?” The young man looked around and a confident glow filled his face.
“These guys are under my cover, but I don’t have the authority to command them. I took their supplies, so I have to protect their safety. That’s business, and it’s also righteousness. I’m the fairest when it comes to business,” Duge said coarsely as he shook his handgun, “Say it here, everyone can listen.”
Security and bodyguards are in the service industry, and service is also a form of trade.
Duge redefined his violent behavior of seizing supplies and transformed himself into a service trade executor, and his various attributes soared once again.
He had to ensure his strength could overwhelm the current competitors.
The people around him weren’t surprised by Duge’s words; in their hearts, Brother Hu was just a gangster who had seized their supplies, not a good thing…
So crude!
The young man sighed discreetly and asked, “Have you ever heard of ‘possession,’ Brother Hu?”
“Are you kidding me?” Duge raised his eyebrows, pointing the gun once more at the young man’s head.
All bark and no bite!
The young man choked back, inwardly sighing. He seemed to see through Brother Hu’s nature, and calmly said, “If it weren’t for possession, how would you explain my leg healing so quickly? Ten minutes ago, I was lying on the ground, unable to move!”
Duge looked towards the people beside him.
Gu Kun said, “Brother Hu, his leg was indeed broken; it’s been several days, this matter is truly uncanny!”
“It was really broken, we saw it ourselves when distributing food with Brother Hu,” another lackey responded.
“So, you believe me,” the young man smiled, “What I’m saying is true, to be exact, I’m no longer the original Yao Tong.”
“Then what are you?” Duge frowned, his fierce words masking his nervousness, “Don’t try to fool me, even if a ghost possesses you, I can still blow your brains out. How many times it comes, that many times I blow it away.”
“…” Yao Tong saw Brother Hu’s nervousness and scorned him even more in his heart. Such trash, relying only on violence to bully others, was far inferior to the Feng Family’s people.
But he was also afraid Brother Hu might impulsively shoot him dead, so he took the initiative to show weakness: “Brother Hu, don’t be nervous, after possession, I’m just a normal person. Though I’m a bit stronger and heal faster than an average person, if you really shoot me, I’d be truly dead.”
Phew!
Duge relaxed, prompting, “What kind of a stray ghost are you from?”
“Brother Hu, I’m not a stray ghost.” Yao Tong chuckled, “To be precise, we are Heavenly Demons, from the distant Demon Realm. Recently, a spatial rift appeared between this world and the Demon Realm, and three thousand Heavenly Demons burst into the Mortal Realm, intending to delight in the prosperity of the human world. Since we have no physical form, the first step to gain a foothold in this world is to possess and be reborn…”
…
Wow!
The crowd stirred.
They all distanced themselves from the possessed Yao Tong.
Even the few lackeys beside Duge changed their expressions.
In the past, people would not have believed in the concept of Heavenly Demons possessing bodies, likely attributing it to some sort of human mutation, but now, with animals and plants mutating and civilization destroyed overnight…
…the idea of Heavenly Demons possessing bodies doesn’t seem so far-fetched anymore!
…
Only Duge still stood in his original spot, growing impatient, he barked, “What’s there to be afraid of? If he really had the capability, would he still be here making deals with me? Let’s hear what he has to say.”
Once these words were spoken,
everyone pondered for a moment and felt that it made sense, so they quieted down again, looking at Yao Tong with curiosity.
“Brother Hu, there really is no need to be afraid. Heavenly Demons are not as complicated as humans. Each Heavenly Demon possesses an attribute that, when it resonates with our own, allows us to grow,” Yao Tong smiled more confidently. “For example, my attribute is honesty. As long as I interact with others sincerely and honestly, my abilities will increase. Conversely, if I engage in deceitful speech and behavior, my personal attribute will quickly weaken. So, Brother Hu can rest easy; I won’t lie, and I definitely won’t betray Brother Hu…”
He really did replicate it exactly!
Duge sighed inwardly, looking at the man before him with a weird expression, thinking to himself: it’s because you ran into me. If it were someone else, you wouldn’t have been able to fool them at all. How can you apply the same template when the social environment has changed?
“Honesty?” Duge snorted, pointing out the flaw, “I don’t believe a word you say. This damned world we’re in, isn’t it because of your Demon Realm’s demonic energy leaking over here?”
Yao Tong was momentarily stunned, then ecstatic, his expression filled with regret, “Nine out of ten, that’s probably right.”
“I knew it.” Duge’s face grew fierce, “Heavenly Demons, the Demon Realm, those don’t sound like anything good. If it weren’t for you, I’d be living the good life, so why should I suffer here in this hellhole. Gu Kun, now that things are clear, it’s this guy who landed us here. Go and kill him…”
Gu Kun drew the knife from his back and, signaling two of his underlings, slowly approached Yao Tong.
Why isn’t he playing by the rules?
Startled, Yao Tong backed away quickly, pleading, “Brother Hu, the rift between the two realms is not something we can control. The chaos of this age is already upon us. Killing me won’t change the fact that animals and plants have mutated.
But if you keep me around, I can be of help. I’m strong, I recover fast; I can go out and get food for you guys! And there are other Heavenly Demons in other places, their attributes different from mine. If theirs are evil or murderous, Brother Hu, your handgun won’t stand a chance against them…”
Duge frowned and called his underlings back, “Gu Kun, come back.”
Yao Tong breathed a sigh of relief.
So did Gu Kun and the others.
To tell the truth,
being ordered by Brother Hu to attack someone possessed by a Heavenly Demon genuinely scared them.
After all, in movies, those with supernatural powers always had special means, and these underlings usually ended up dead.
But now that their opponent seemed afraid, their confidence surged, beginning to think that Heavenly Demons weren’t all that formidable—less threatening than the stray cats and dogs outside.
“Brother Hu, I can help you. In this chaotic world, it’s not impossible for you to ascend as the King of Taifen,” said Yao Tong, smiling secretly after swaying Brother Hu, continuing to persuade him.
“With your help?” Duge snorted, “I scared you with just a few of my underlings, and you’re talking about helping me ascend as the King of Taifen? Do I look like someone that easy to fool? Honest? I don’t think you’re honest at all.”
“It’s precisely because I’m honest that I speak the truth! I may seem weak now, but as long as I continue to grow, I’ll become more and more powerful,” Yao Tong said.
“More and more powerful,” Duge looked at him, still full of disdain, “You said earlier, healing your broken leg was due to your strong recovery power?”
“Yes, as long as I’m sufficiently honest, I can recover from any wound that isn’t fatal. This trait is perfect for scavenging resources,” said Yao Tong.
“Come here,” Duge glanced at him, motioning him over.
“…” Yao Tong froze.
“Claiming you want to help me, yet you’re afraid to come over to me? Is that what you call ‘honest’?” Duge sneered and aimed his pistol at him again, “I hate being lied to the most. I used to have reservations when killing, but in this day and age, you don’t really think I’m afraid to kill, do you?”
Fuck!
Son of a bitch!
I’ll kill you one day.
Veins throbbing in his forehead, Yao Tong raised his hands and slowly moved closer, explaining, “Brother Hu, you changed your mind too quickly; I didn’t react in time…”
Just as he reached Duge’s side,
Duge suddenly grabbed the dagger from Gu Kun’s hand.
With a thud,
he stabbed it into Yao Tong’s thigh.
