The Ascension of Contracted Spirits

Chapter 1187 - 454: The Little Rascal’s Wealthy Demon Dream_3

"But Yuwen Nai must be cautious," he had received the Mark of Pride, and it was very likely that he would ascend to Half-Step Deity."

"In the journey across three Cosmic Eras of the Realm of Desire, he was among the elite, crowned with the name of the invincible, feared by all demons."

Aegi Mogo licked her lips, losing her smile, her face full of jealousy, said:

"Lord, you must be careful. This demon is capricious and fickle, his likes and dislikes utterly inscrutable."

"In dealing with him, once he is angered, not only is one’s own life at risk, but it may also involve companions, even the whole race."

"To my knowledge, in the Near Ancient Tenth Epoch, both the King of Gluttony and the King of Greed had provoked him."

"One was killed by him out of turn, becoming a stepping stone for his advancement."

"The other was sought out by him, hunted from rank 5 to rank 1, slaughtering half the race, forcibly changing the blood of a clan."

"This is also why, today’s envy, greed, and gluttony only dare to trade with him obediently, not daring to harbor any other ulterior motives."

"Hmm, I’ve heard this from the Seven Virtues, they are all uniformly intimidated by the King of Pride."

Ye Hanjun acknowledged, replying:

"Thus, we must be even more cautious with the Seven Sins Ritual."

"Anyway, since Aegifura holds the Whip of Lust, she can also aid the growth of her Rank."

"Rather than rashly placing ourselves in danger, it’s better to further develop and retreat with full assurance."

"I will listen to Lord’s instructions~"

Aegi Mogo displayed her smile again, her eyes filled with affection:

"Then I shall take my leave first."

"If you feel lonely, whether it’s the body or the soul, you can summon me at any time~~~"

...

Ye Hanjun also left the White Tiger Pouncing on Snake Hall.

The urgent tasks at hand were indeed not few—the sale of the Wings of Rage was just one of them.

Mo had died and was in a slow state of resurrection, requiring patience to wait.

GuaGua, Huazhu, Goose Immortal, all were stuck at the upper position of the Sacred Voidal Conduit, just a hair’s breadth away from advancement.

Bana, currently only bound to one Contract Beast, the empty Marks needed careful selection of suitable partners.

Of course, the most important, the most irresistible, Ye Hanjun was to go preach with Ye Liuying.

The Grey Sun God Church established with Lie Xinxin as the source must bestow Ability on its believers, productively reflecting their name and essence.

Then, he needed to strive to expand its scale.

Regardless of whether it could eventually surpass the Seven Virtues’ existing influence and reputation in the Realm of Desire, only with the increase in the number of believers and their growing strength would his Faith Altar continue to be rich and abundant.

Crown Rank—seemingly within reach, yet actually far as the horizon!

Without accumulation of small steps, one can not make a thousand miles; without gathering of streams, there can be no seas and oceans.

Ye Hanjun clearly understood, he was still far off.

With just over eight thousand years left, if he couldn’t take the final step, the unguarded Ghost Lamp Abyss would inevitably be full of starving corpses, a Corpse Mountain of blood...

...

New Era Second Epoch, year 1810.

The New Wrathful King Mai Erxun, left the Land of Lust with fury.

He had obtained a magical artifact, but also paid a hefty price—the accumulations of the Country of Rage over tens of thousands of years, thus handed over without opposition.

He came highly suspicious, whether the Land of Lust had a direct connection with the death of the Former Fury King Maiertu.

However, he didn’t even get to see the King of Lust- Ji Fula.

All he was granted an audience with was Aegi Mogo and a few Demon Kings of Supreme Holy Completion.

"Roar! The Land of Lust has bullied demons too far!"

"Once this King ascends to Supreme Holy Completion, I will surely reclaim all the honors that once belonged to the Country of Rage!"

Rumors say that in that year, the desolate land bordering the Land of Lust, witnessed a fire that burnt eternally.

Familiars were dispatched to investigate, but having touched the mad flames, went out of control and fought with their companions.

Seated in the palace, Aegi Mogo heard this and chuckled coyly, saying with interest:

"So the kin of rage also have today?"

"With fury hidden in their hearts, they dare not vent in front of the true adversary, playing these dark tricks, enough to make demons openly scoff."

"Qilin, Dagger, you need not bother with him."

"A Minor Saintly Perfection King of Wrath, even with the Wings of Rage, could at most grow to Great Completion in the short term, where is the threat to speak of?"

"Yes."

Qilin War Armor Demon, Mantis Dagger Demon, obediently respectful.

A short while later, a devoted yet low-ranked Holy Demon plucked up the courage to ask:

"Your Majesty Mogo, I’ve heard that Lord Ye is vigorously supporting the power of the human race, how do you view this matter, do you have any reservations in your heart?"

"Reservations? A little, perhaps."

"After all, I too looked down on the Human Race in the early days."

"They are delicate and fall easily, with little time in bed, aside from being able to sign Contracts and some flashy Abilities, they have no other merits."

Aegi Mogo sipped her wine leisurely, smiled amiably, and said:

"But since it’s Lord Ye, then there’s no helping it~~~"

"However he wants to play, if we can’t help him, the least we can do is not make a mess for him~~~"

"Qilin, Dagger, go and capture all of those demons who ignored my orders and still relentlessly slaughtered the humans."

"While killing is our nature and shouldn’t be resisted."

"But, time and again, repeatedly, I am not blind."

"For a loftier ideal, for a more brilliant future, it is pretty necessary to weed out the rats sooner rather than later."

"War Armor, Dagger."

"You needn’t kill them; just throw them into The Gluttonous Country, the Gluttony kin are certainly pleased to savor imported lunches."

"If by chance they survive, then it’s their luck, I will reluctantly spare them."

"Yes, Your Majesty Mogo!"

Qilin War Armor Demon, Mantis Dagger Demon, with auras of murder, respectfully took their leave.

After a while, the palace was left only with Aegi Mogo.

She held her wine, her cheeks flushed, enchanting and half-drunk.

"Lord Ye..."

"You go out and have fun without me, my heart is shattered..."
