101. Soul Contract

Ding bell——ding bell——

Lu Li left the tavern.

There is also the hungry demon who follows him and is ignored by all the demons.

"Please don't leave the tavern within three hours." The humanoid demon said, suppressing the emotions of those who coveted Lu Li. "Except for our blind demon hunter."

It looked at Ruth at the door with interest: "If you don't go, he will leave."

"I said I have nothing to do with him." Ruth's face was cold.

With a smile, the humanoid demon said: "You are not welcome in the tavern today, can you leave?"

"You bastard..."

Ruth cursed in displeasure and left her seat with a cold snort.

With a hint of briskness in her steps, she opened the door and left the tavern.

Ding bell——ding bell——

The crisp wind chimes swayed.

"You actually protected a human being." A high-level demon growled. It was one of the demons that Lu Li coveted after revealing his identity.

"Everything is just a transaction, it's fair." The humanoid demon said nonchalantly.

It took out a strange wine bottle from under the wine cabinet, poured it into a goblet, and stared at the swaying wine, as if recalling something.



As Lu Li approached, the red flames on the skeleton horse gradually retreated back into the bones, forming a solid flame of expression deep in the eye sockets.

The unique aura of hellish creatures made Whitley tremble at the bottom of hell. If it hadn't been for the imprint of following Lu Li deep in his instinct, he would have fled this town long ago.

Lu Li didn't plan to take Whitley with him on the next trip, but Lu Li couldn't tell Whitley to leave because he couldn't communicate.

At this moment, there was a faint sound of wind chimes behind her, and Ruth opened the door and walked out of the tavern.

"Why do you need a mount?" The graceful Ruth walked up to Lu Li with the crisp sound of her boots. She kept a vigilant distance and looked at the skeleton horse strangely: "It can't take you out of hell."

"Can."

Ruth subconsciously wanted to sneer, but Lu Li's calmness told her that this guy might really have a way to go back.

"What's going on?" she asked.

Lu Li did not hide anything and said directly: "When I was in the human world, I heard that there is an entrance to hell in Watchtown."

"What if it's fake news?"

"We can only forcefully return once more."

Lu Li looked at Ruth and Whitley calmly: "Thank you for your help, you don't need to follow me on the next journey. Ruth, Whitley will be left to you for now, don't let it follow."

"What do you mean?" Ruth frowned with the cloth covering her eyes.

"You have already died once. If you die again, you may really die."

"Why do people who have died once still be afraid of death?" Ruth's iconic taunting appeared: "Compared with an insignificant death, I want to see your despair when you get nothing."

"You can stay here." Lu Li said. "If the news is false, I will come back."

"If despair is not new, it cannot please me."

Surprisingly, Ruth, who had shown resistance to Lu Li along the way, now stubbornly wanted to follow him, even if there was death ahead.

"Without me as a guide, you will soon die in a dangerous hell."

"The skeleton horse can help me deal with most dangers."

"It can't tell you anything."

"You alone can't come back."

"We can come back with the skeleton horse. And...are you feeling guilty?" Ruth looked at Lu Li: "In my opinion, it's not necessary. You can kill us before you leave. Anyway, you have already done this.

You’ve done it once, haven’t you?”

Realizing that it was impossible for Ruth to stay, Lu Li stopped trying to dissuade her.

He approached the skeleton horse and the latter lay down so that Lu Li could sit on it.

Whitley and Ruth were also united by it. The tall skeleton horse could fully support their weight.

However, Lu Li and Ruth, who were riding on the skeleton horse together, had nothing to do with Yi-ni - there was Whitley between them.

Lu Li grabbed the top row of ribs on the skeleton horse and whispered, "You can leave now."

The skeleton horse stood up, its hooves raised black flames that twisted the surroundings, and it moved quickly towards the Black Calamity Volcano.

Wherever the horse's hooves stepped, black flames in the shape of a horseshoe burned up and extended to the distance where the skeleton horse left.

"It seems that your other old acquaintances didn't arrive in time." Ruth's shout sounded faintly in the wind.

Those related to Lu Li were either too far away to come, or they had long since disappeared into hell.

Perhaps Ruth and Wheatley are the only remaining acquaintances...



The pub became lively again.

The high-level demons were chatting in low voices with the demons. Although there was no transaction, they enjoyed this leisurely calm that did not require fighting.

As time passed slowly, at a certain moment, the whispers in the tavern suddenly became smaller and smaller.

They looked at the door of the tavern at the same time, as if they were waiting.

Crunchy——

A slight, strange sound came from outside the door and gradually became clearer.

White frost emerged on the door, spread and climbed, spreading to the entire wall.

All hell creatures in the tavern felt a chill.

As hell creatures, they are familiar with the scorching heat of hell. But the cold at this time makes them feel uncomfortable and resistant.

Click——

The frost between the door frame and the door shattered, and the door was pushed open from the outside, hitting the already frozen and silent wind chimes.

The aristocratic dress, thin figure and pale, bluish complexion made it look like a vampire. They stared at this figure that did not conceal its aura. This arrogant and provocative behavior showed that it was an uninvited guest.

"This is not a place you should set foot in, son of the devil." The humanoid demon behind the counter said calmly, whispering its identity.

"Ice Heart Demon."

"You are old, devil."

The Ice Heart Demon walked towards the counter, and frost spread wherever he passed.

"He actually made a deal with a human being."

The humanoid demon smiled carelessly: "This is more suitable for your father."

"You are all the same. But I am different from you."

There was no respect for his father in the mouth of the devil's son: "Tell me where he went."

The skeleton horse's hoofprints would burn for more than ten hours, and the Ice Heart Demon arrived at the tavern only ten minutes later than Lu Li.

There are also the marks left by the devil on Lu Li's body.

Of course it knew where Lu Li had gone.

When a male cub in a pride grows up, it will begin to challenge the male lions and establish its own status.

"It's a pity that you came a little late. He and I have already made a deal, and you have to stay here temporarily."

The Ice Heart Demon looked around at the demons who were looking at him unkindly, and said with a smile: "You are a bunch of trash who have lost your claws... let's freeze together here."

The biting cold suddenly spread and filled the entire tavern. The demons with different expressions were frozen into lifelike ice sculptures in an instant, shining with a beautiful blue luster.

A minute later, a thin figure wearing aristocratic dress left the abandoned town along the black smoke hoof prints.
