Dragon Clan: I'm too lazy to talk to you, you're not worthy to listen!

Chapter 124 The Sword of Vow to Victory

"Brother, as long as you are willing, a thousand troops will always be behind you."

The little devil was dressed in a black evening suit, with a white floral handkerchief pinned to her left breast pocket. Her pale red lips whispered a dreamlike murmur near Lu Mingfei's left ear.

Lu Mingfei blinked. He realized that everything in front of him seemed to have stopped, just like the last time Lu Mingze took him to Tokyo Airport to see the fragmented Nidhogg.

Only two people can move and talk in the space: Lu Mingfei and Little Devil.

Lu Mingfei looked up and saw Ye Jingchen standing in front of him, who was inexplicably holding up a "long whip"!

Lu Mingfei's lips were still burning from being whipped earlier.

Lu Mingfei turned his head and looked behind him, only to find that the space behind him was empty, and even the wall he had been leaning against in the real world was gone.

He glanced at the little devil with some distrust, scratched his chin in confusion, and asked, "What about the thousands of troops you mentioned?"

“Everything has a price already marked in secret.” The little devil snapped his fingers, standing tall with his petite yet noble figure. “Brother, everything comes at a price. A thousand troops would require two-quarters of your life.”

"Two-quarters, isn't that one-half?!" Lu Mingfei thought to himself, rolling his eyes at the little devil.

Lu Mingfei had some knowledge of stories about Western demon contracts, but those demons would gradually lure humans and incite their greed.

Unlike the little devil, who makes outrageous demands, sometimes wanting all of life, sometimes only half of it.

“The price is too high…” Lu Mingfei lowered his head silently.

The little devil wouldn't let it go, placing his other hand on Lu Mingfei's shoulder and resting his chin on it. "Brother, if you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight!"

"Get out of here!" Lu Mingfei shoved Lu Mingze away. He covered his head, squatted in the corner, pressed his hair against his forehead to cover his eyes, and said, "I don't even know what a crown looks like, and you want to take half my life? Is that reasonable?"

I've already said I haven't lived enough yet; there are so many things I haven't done.

"Brother, you're about to die, and you're still reluctant to give up even half your life... Sigh." The little devil looked at Lu Mingfei's dejected face and shook his head helplessly.

The little devil shifted his gaze from Lu Mingfei and looked up into Ye Jingchen's eyes. "Then come on, you bandit!"

Ye Jingchen met the little devil's eyes and felt dizzy and mesmerized.

Ye Jingchen was all too familiar with this feeling, and a slight smile appeared on his lips.

A dazzling, intense white light, like a flashbang, appeared before his eyes.

When Ye Jingchen opened his eyes again, he saw himself standing on a vast sea, with a small wooden boat floating steadily beneath his feet.

Ye Jingchen stood at the stern of the boat.

The sky was azure blue.

At the bow of the ship, the little devil, dressed in a black evening gown, stood with her back to Ye Jingchen.

Ye Jingchen spoke to the little devil's retreating figure, "You've finally decided to show yourself, Zero. I thought you would appear the moment I reached out my hand to Lu Mingfei."

The little devil turned to look at Ye Jingchen. Just now, when he was chatting with Lu Mingfei, he was as kind and amiable as a little boy, but in an instant, he changed to a face that was neither sad nor happy.

However, seeing Ye Jingchen, he really couldn't feel happy.

The little devil stood with his hands behind his back and said calmly, "I've already tolerated you turning Uesugi Erii into the White King, so why are you still going to touch Lu Mingfei?"

"You tolerate me? Do I need your tolerance? If you were capable of stopping me, you would have done it already."

"If you hadn't instructed those two henchmen from the nanny group to assassinate me, do you think I would have come after Lu Mingfei?"

The little devil was stunned for a moment, "I didn't send them to assassinate you..."

"Do you think I'd believe your nonsense?" Ye Jingchen interrupted the little devil. "I'm too lazy to reason with you. You're not worthy to listen. Take this sword!"

"The Sword of Promised Victory!"

EX—Curry sticks!!!

A sword radiating golden light appeared in Ye Jingchen's hand; its prototype was the Scottish broadsword in real life.

All around, countless light elements converged towards the lightsaber, instantly dimming the surrounding sea and sky.

Ye Jingchen raised the lightsaber high with both hands, and the lightsaber instantly extended, piercing through the clouds in the sky!

It slashed towards the little devil's petite body.

The little devil sensed the terrifying power contained in this move, feeling a slight chill on the back of his neck. He nodded to himself.

"That's not surprising. No wonder she died in the spiritual world. It turns out you actually have this kind of power in the spiritual world."

However, this is ultimately my world, and I am not her.

The little devil raised his right hand, the white shirt cuff peeking out from beneath the sleeve of his black evening gown. He pointed his hand at Ye Jingchen and calmly said:

"Word of Power - Banish!"

Ye Jingchen was stunned for a moment. An indescribable force was driving him out of the little devil's world, like pre-programmed underlying code, forcibly running.

Theoretically speaking, Ye Jingchen's sword strike should have been able to directly hit the little devil.

But the little devil is like someone who activated a skill to knock back enemies while simultaneously using invulnerability to avoid damage – it's cheating.

In an instant!

Another burst of intense white light appeared before their eyes.

Ye Jingchen opened his eyes and returned to the real world, holding a locust tree branch high in his hand, ready to slap Lu Mingfei's mouth.

However, unlike before.

This time, Ye Jingchen was able to see the little devil beside Lu Mingfei.

He changed the direction of the locust tree branch and swung it at the little devil!

The willow branch passed straight through the little devil's body, as if it had passed through air.

When Lu Mingfei heard the sound of the "whip" striking, he couldn't help but shudder, but after a long while, he didn't feel the burning pain on his skin.

Curious, he quietly raised his head and looked at Ye Jingchen's face.

Ye Jingchen was staring intently at the little devil beside him.

Lu Mingfei thought to himself in surprise, "Huh? Could this wicked older brother see the little devil?!"

The little devil crossed his arms and chuckled, "You can't hit me, but if that move had hit me just now, it would have caused some damage."

Lu Mingfei scratched his head, looking at the little devil with a puzzled expression. "I didn't hit you. I was holding my head with my hands the whole time."

The little devil did not reply to Lu Mingfei's words.

Ye Jingchen tossed the willow branch aside. "I didn't really think I could hit you; I was just trying my luck."

Lu Mingfei's eyes widened when he heard Ye Jingchen's words. He looked at the little devil, then at Ye Jingchen, "You can see this little boy?"

Ye Jingchen and the Little Devil both glanced at Lu Mingfei at the same time, but said nothing.

Chu Zihang opened his eyes groggily and looked at Ye Jingchen standing there and Lu Mingfei squatting in the corner.

He vaguely heard Ye Jingchen and Lu Mingfei talking there.

But based on what he overheard, Chu Zihang concluded that there should be three people talking in the corner.

His golden eyes flickered for a moment, then he closed them again, drowsily muttering:

"There's one more person, but who is it...?"
