"So you're saying you have countless rooms like this?" Fang Zhiyi pointed behind him.
Skinny Dog nodded. "Many, many of them. I don't even know how many there are. Logically speaking, for every human, there is a room that belongs to them."
"Hmm... then who exactly sent you to find me?" Fang Zhiyi toyed with the sharp knife in his hand.
Skinny Dog hesitated for a moment. "It's, it's that lord. I cannot speak his name." It immediately added, "Of course, this isn't targeting you specifically. Many, many humans have been chosen."
To its surprise, Fang Zhiyi waved his hand dismissively. "That doesn't matter. Let me ask you this: do you know where the Fallen are?"
Skinny Dog shook its head. "I'm not sure. Low-level demons like us don't know much about the Fallen. All I know is that the Fallen made some sort of deal with high-level demons, sacrificing their souls to be accepted. Generally speaking, we don't like those people. They are too cunning."
"And you have the nerve to call others cunning?"
At this, Skinny Dog straightened its back. "Demons are very principled! Those possessed humans almost always accepted an agreement before they were ultimately transformed."
Seeing the look in Fang Zhiyi's eyes, it felt a bit guilty. "Of course, there might be a little guidance... After all, that's the task assigned by our superiors..."
Fang Zhiyi suddenly raised his hand to interrupt it. "Alright, I know all the answers I need. Now, I'm going to ask you a crucial question."
"Huh?"
"Do you want to be the boss?" Fang Zhiyi's smile, in Skinny Dog's eyes, was more terrifying than any demon's.
"Me? Me? Stop joking, me?"
"That's right, you." Fang Zhiyi didn't look like he was joking at all.
Skinny Dog looked at the human before it—the one who had terrified Number 34 for so long—and felt a strange sensation in its heart.
Fang Zhiyi also looked at the guy in front of him. In the original plot, it was this Skinny Dog who ultimately made the original host willingly sacrifice his soul.
"What... what do I need to do?" It finally made up its mind.
Fang Zhiyi narrowed his eyes and smiled. "I'll let you possess me."
Hearing these words, Skinny Dog almost blurted out: Aren't you already possessed by an incredibly powerful existence?
But no matter how hard it looked right now, it couldn't see Little Hei anywhere.
"Stay here and be beaten to death by your colleagues, or possess me. You choose." Fang Zhiyi, for his part, didn't care either way.
The other demons, who had been hiding in their rooms, heard the commotion outside completely die down. A few bold ones poked their heads out to check, only to find that Fang Zhiyi was gone, and Uresk was missing too. They froze for a few seconds before erupting into cheers.
They had survived another day!
"It's a pity that Uresk disappeared. If it weren't for him, how could so many things have gone wrong!" one demon cursed indignantly.
The others chimed in, agreeing that if they ever saw that guy again, they would definitely teach him a lesson.
Right now, they just prayed that the murderous god wouldn't return.
Skinny Dog successfully followed Fang Zhiyi back to the real world. Only then did it realize how ridiculous its previous thoughts had been; it couldn't exert even a fraction of its power within Fang Zhiyi's body.
This made it gradually believe Fang Zhiyi's words. This human truly possessed extremely powerful strength! Perhaps by listening to him, it really could ascend to the throne of an Abyssal Lord!
Thinking about the future, Skinny Dog couldn't help but laugh out loud.
What aspirations could a demon have? Power, of course! Collecting human souls was for power, and feeding on human fear was for power. As long as one had power, one had everything!
Its silly laughter was heard by Little Hei.
"Why did you find this idiot?"
Fang Zhiyi chuckled. "To find a spokesperson, and while I'm at it... to find a new energy source."
Little Hei didn't understand what he meant.
It wasn't until Fang Zhiyi appeared again at the home of Prey's cousin. Prey looked anxious; the demon had returned, and his cousin had fallen into a deep sleep again. Fortunately, Fang Zhiyi had contacted him.
As soon as the long-haired demon opened its eyes, it saw a familiar face. It instinctively shrank its neck back. Just as Fang Zhiyi was about to strike, the demon cursed and tried to slip away.
It didn't believe this bizarre human could stand guard here every single day!
But to its surprise, the moment it left the girl's body, Fang Zhiyi's fist changed direction and smashed right into its face.
In the eyes of Prey and the others, Fang Zhiyi's punch had struck thin air.
It wasn't until the air distorted, and then they saw Fang Zhiyi reach out with his left hand and grab onto something.
"Heh heh, go on, try to run."
The long-haired demon was filled with terror. This guy was cheating! How could he grab it directly!
What greeted it was a brutal beating.
Little Hei also understood what Fang Zhiyi meant. With Skinny Dog possessing him, it meant he simultaneously held identities in both worlds.
Even in this real world, demons were physical entities in his eyes!
"I won't do it again! I won't do it again! I was wrong!"
Intense pain made the long-haired demon start begging for mercy. It still couldn't figure out why any of this was happening.
"What number are you?" Fang Zhiyi asked with a sinister smile.
The long-haired demon paused for a moment. Seeing that another beating was coming, it hugged its head and replied, "Number 25! I'm from Dungeon Number 25!"
"Do you know where the other demons are?"
Prey watched Fang Zhiyi talking to thin air, his face full of shock.
He was certain that Fang Zhiyi must be holding a terrifying demon in his hand.
But how could a human be so strong?
Fang Zhiyi turned and left, carrying the invisible demon. "Alright, your daughter won't have any more problems from now on."
In the backyard of a house, shrill screams and curses rang out.
The family's faces were filled with despair, and they could only continuously pray for God's protection.
But that God did not appear. Instead, a young man barged into their home, greeted them incredibly naturally, walked right through the house, and entered the backyard.
The male homeowner snapped back to reality and quickly chased after him to see what was happening.
He only saw the young man walk straight into the storage room, followed by his brother's mocking laughter and unbearable curses coming from inside.
But just a few seconds later, only the curses remained.
And then came crying and begging for mercy.
Soon, a rumor spread nearby that an unknown exorcist was walking through the community. Wherever a family was plagued by a demon, he would appear there.
Unlike the exorcism methods of other exorcists, this man used purely physical exorcism.
The rescued people were often left with bruised and swollen faces, yet they still had to thank him.
Meanwhile, the protagonist of the rumor was currently staring intently at a clown standing on the side of the road. In the middle of the night, a clown holding a balloon.
No matter how you looked at it, it was bizarre.
"Boss, it's definitely one!"
"Do you need to tell me? I know it is too. Boss, get him!"
"What tasteless clothes."
Several voices were arguing inside Fang Zhiyi's head.
s the Eldest Princess, renowned for her cold and aloof detachment, became the most docile of lambs, obeying his every command without question. But when the final move was played on the chessboard, as Gu Chenghan seized everything and ascended on the verge of apotheosis, that very Princess suddenly embraced him from behind, her tone carrying a dependence never heard before: "Wait... you haven't yet... commanded me to love you forever." Gu Chenghan froze abruptly. She... hadn't been hypnotized?! ...

nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.
