Yuan Shi Jun is a descendant of the Demon Lord? That notorious Demon Lord?

Asano Ryo's face changed slightly, shocked by the Executor's words.

The Chizuru Group and the Five Elements Alliance do not have a good diplomatic relationship, but they have a close connection with Heavenly Punishment (underlings). Therefore, the first time Asano Ryo truly heard of the Demon Lord was not during his reign of terror on the mainland, but when he was sleeping with women in the West.

For a while, the Chizuru Group's internal forum was filled with similar gossip and scandals.

First, a mysterious man from the mainland became the new darling of the Goddess Association.

Then, a mysterious man from the mainland captured the heart of an Executor from the Heavenly Punishment organization, and the two went on a honeymoon to such and such a place.

Then again, a mysterious man from the mainland was seen entering a top hotel with a certain noble lady.

Next, a noble lady and a cold and beautiful prosecutor fought fiercely over jealousy, causing a disturbance. The cause was actually a mysterious Chinese man.

Almost every few days, that mysterious man who appeared in the forum was always sleeping with women: Heavenly Punishment's delicate Executors, cold and beautiful prosecutors, daughters of aristocratic families, wives of important figures, and even notoriously evil professionals.

One day, Asano Ryo curiously asked her teacher, Ryuuzaki Ichi, who that mysterious Chinese man was.

The teacher said: "That guy is called the Demon Lord!"

The Demon Lord slept with so many women, including the forbidden lovers of important figures, wives of high-ranking officials, and high-quality women with many suitors, inevitably attracting targeting.

Public duels, insidious assassinations, and silent curses were countless, but that evil figure, driven by his lower body, not only did not die abroad, but also showed terrifying combat power, taking on one and then two.

He had beaten as many orderly and evil powerhouses as he had slept with women.

Asano Ryo listened with great admiration, yearning for the power of that evil figure, while also being filled with fear of his reputation, after all, Ryo-chan was also a well-known beauty in the Chizuru Group.

What if one day, that Demon Lord heard of Ryo-chan's beauty, crossed the ocean to the island nation and demanded that she serve him?

Later, Asano Ryo realized that she had been worrying too much. Before her beauty had a chance to become famous, that once-proud and peerless genius had returned to The Way of the Extraordinary.

In Asano Ryo's mind, the Demon Lord was synonymous with evil and perversion, and Yuan Shi Jun was an honest and trustworthy Newspaper Boy. The two were worlds apart. How could they be related?

If she had to find a commonality, it would be that both of them were equally talented.

Asano Ryo was lost in thought for a long time, and the Demon Hunter did not pursue the matter, slowly savoring his sake.

"I like strong alcohol, but Juyondai has shown me the beauty of sake." The Demon Hunter put down his empty cup, turned his head to look at Asano Ryo beside him, and smiled slightly:

"Don't be too nervous, I'm just asking a few questions."

Asano Ryo suddenly came back to her senses and looked at Kobe Ichiro, who nodded.

Asano Ryo took a deep breath, lowered her eyes, and said obediently, "What does the Executor want to ask? I will tell you everything I know."

The Demon Hunter's deep blue eyes stared at Asano Ryo, and he said sternly:

"How many times have you entered dungeons with him? Have you ever seen a black crescent moon mark appear on his forehead when he cleared a dungeon?"

Asano Ryo thought for a moment and shook her head:

"No!"

That serious-looking blonde youth suddenly asked: "Is it no, or did you not see it?"

Asano Ryo lowered her head and answered truthfully:

"I have only entered two dungeons with Yuan Shi Jun, one was a slaughter dungeon, and the other was a gang dungeon. He was not by my side when the slaughter dungeon was cleared, so I did not see it. During the gang dungeon, he was already a Saint, and the mark on his forehead was a nebula."

The serious-looking youth nodded and said nothing more.

The Demon Hunter continued to ask: "Report all the items he has used."

"This" Asano Ryo frowned and quickly started thinking.

How strange, why is Heavenly Punishment asking about Yuan Shi Jun's items?

That's right, they said that Yuan Shi Jun is a descendant of the Demon Lord, so they want to further confirm whether he is a descendant of the Demon Lord through the items Yuan Shi Jun uses?

Asano Ryo thought of this possibility and believed that she had guessed the truth.

If Yuan Shi Jun did not obtain the Demon Lord's inheritance, where did the Demon Lord's descendant come from?

From this, she started to imagine that the Heavenly Punishment organization coveted the treasures left by the Demon Lord, so they were investigating Yuan Shi Jun.

The Demon Hunter's tone was gentle, "You are in the same gang as him. You can't betray him, but revealing item information is not within the scope of betrayal. Since it's not betrayal, then speak freely."

Seeing that she was silent for a long time, the Executor thought that she did not want to betray her gang members.

Kobe Ichiro frequently winked at Asano Ryo, signaling her to cooperate obediently.

Asano Ryo pursed her lips and said:

"I understand, but I don't have a deep connection with Yuan Shi Jun, so I don't necessarily know all of his items. I, I will say whatever I see..."

Seeing that the guests from Heavenly Punishment had no objections, she continued:

"Yuan Shi Jun has a set of equipment consisting of a water and fire-colored robe, earth-type boots, and a belt. He also has a weapon that can transform into three forms, namely a shield, a hand cannon, and a small hammer. He also has a red soft hat with its own space..."

Asano Ryo recalled while speaking.

She mentioned a total of four items and one set of equipment, namely the Purple Thunder Cannon, Mountain God Scepter, Da Luo Star Disc, Little Red Riding Hood, and the Heaven Offering Set.

Asano Ryo chose them for a reason. First of all, these four items had left a strong impression on her, and Yuan Shi Jun used them frequently in the dungeons.

Among them, the Mountain God Scepter came from the slaughter dungeon. As a participant in the dungeon, she could 100% confirm that it had nothing to do with the Demon Lord.

Secondly, the Heaven Offering Set was obviously unrelated to the Demon Lord. Asano Ryo knew that the first place prize in this year's Five Elements Alliance arena competition at the transcendent stage was the Houtu Boots.

The Chizuru Group had collected information on Yuan Shi Jun, and they would naturally not miss such important information as the arena competition. Of course, the Chizuru Group did not know the attributes of the Houtu Boots.

In this way, only the Little Red Riding Hood, Purple Thunder Cannon, and Da Luo Star Disc could not be determined.

However, if they came from the Demon Lord, Yuan Shi Jun would not use them so frequently, wouldn't that be openly saying: Don't miss it, take a look, everyone come and see this descendant of the Demon Lord.

Although Asano Ryo did not think that Yuan Shi Jun was a descendant of the Demon Lord.

Of course, Asano Ryo still remembered that Yuan Shi Jun had frequently used that Wind Mage Glove, but she could not reveal all of Yuan Shi Jun's secrets, just reveal a part to deal with the Heavenly Punishment organization.

She couldn't say nothing, but she couldn't say everything.

The Demon Hunter frowned as he listened and asked in detail about the functions of those items. Then, he looked at the serious-faced blonde youth and said:

"That red soft hat seems to be the Little Red Riding Hood from fairy tales."

The blonde youth said:

"Not necessarily, that Little Red Riding Hood is said to have the ability to distort, but she didn't mention it just now. These are not important, it's not that person's item."

The Demon Hunter nodded slightly, then took out his phone, opened a document, and handed it to Asano Ryo, saying:

"Take a closer look, have you seen any of the items on it?"

Asano Ryo nodded, took the phone with both hands, and carefully browsed the document. The document contained images of many items, with brief descriptions of the item's skills in words.

The descriptions were not very detailed, and were probably based on the item's external abilities.

There were a total of sixteen items in the document, covering two major regions, both orderly and evil, and according to the descriptions, the lowest grade was at the Saint stage, and there were no transcendent ones.

Of course, the Demon Lord seemed to already be a Ruler when he made a name for himself overseas?

Asano Ryo finished looking at the picture album and shook her head: "I'm sorry, I haven't seen Yuan Shi Jun use any of the items in the picture album."

The Demon Hunter and the three youths exchanged glances.

Kobe Ichiro observed their expressions and laughed heartily: "Ryo-chan has only met Yuan Shi Jun twice, and they were both in dungeons. She's not familiar with him at all."

The frivolous and arrogant youth with extremely handsome features smiled and said: "If she's not familiar with him, how did he invite our Ryo-chan to join his gang?"

Kobe Ichiro laughed again, "Our Ryo-chan is a well-known beauty in the Chizuru Group. She's so cute. Cute beauties receive preferential treatment everywhere."

He was telling the guests from Heavenly Punishment that Yuan Shi Jun coveted our Ryo-chan's beauty.

The frivolous youth examined Asano Ryo's face and smiled knowingly.

Asano Ryo stood up gracefully and excused herself to go to the restroom. Just as she reached the door, she heard the serious-faced youth say:

"There is one more thing that requires Ms. Asano Ryo's cooperation!"

Asano Ryo smiled, "Please speak."

The blonde youth said: "You must not reveal anything that happened at the banquet today to anyone, especially Yuan Shi Jun. This is not a verbal promise, you need to make a contract."

Asano Ryo's small fists clenched tightly inside her kimono, but her face remained a humble and gentle smile: "Okay."

After speaking, she stared at the blonde youth, waiting for him to take out the contract item.

The blonde youth's expression remained cold and unchanged, and he said lightly: "Just stare into my eyes and swear to me.

He's a Knight class? Asano Ryo was a little surprised. The number of Knight classes was extremely small. This was the first time she had seen one alive.

Asano Ryo calmed herself and stared into the other party's eyes. In those light blue eyes, golden light suddenly surged, sacred and majestic.

The blonde youth said: "Repeat after me, I swear that I will never tell anyone about tonight's conversation. If I violate this oath, may I return to The Way of the Extraordinary."

"I swear, I will never tell anyone about tonight's conversation. If I violate this oath, may I return to The Way of the Extraordinary. Knight, I have witnessed!"

A faint golden light spread out, turning into a breeze that swept through the izakaya.

Asano Ryo's heart stirred, feeling that a rule had been established in the dark, and a force had formed shackles in her heart, fleeting in an instant.

The contract was completed, and the noble guests from Heavenly Punishment withdrew their gazes and continued drinking. Asano Ryo opened the door of the izakaya and walked towards the restroom with small steps. She walked faster and faster, the small steps turned into a brisk walk, and the brisk walk turned into a trot.

Running to the restroom, pushing open an empty stall, Asano Ryo leaned against the door, covering her chest, panting violently.

Her expression became extremely terrified, and the composure and elegance at the table were gone. There was only one thought in her mind: Yuan Shi Jun is a descendant of the Demon Lord!!

There was no mistake. She saw two familiar items in the picture album, one was a ring that could change her appearance, and the other was the blue Wind Mage Glove.

The Wind Mage Glove went without saying. She had seen that ring in the slaughter dungeon.

During the trek through the primeval forest, Yuan Shi Jun deliberately changed his appearance so as not to be targeted by evil professionals, and he was wearing that ring at the time.

If it was a coincidence that one item was the same, then two items were the same...

"I have to remind Yuan Shi Jun, otherwise he will be found out by Heavenly Punishment! But I have sworn an oath, I can't reveal..."

"I need an item that can exempt me from the contract, or a substitute item that can transfer the damage..."

However, not to mention whether such an item exists, even if it does, she would not be able to find an item with this function.

Thoughts flashed rapidly in Asano Ryo's mind, and sweat broke out on her anxious forehead.

Suddenly, her heart stirred, why not ask Yuan Shi Jun? He has many treasures, and as a star figure in the Five Elements Alliance, even if he doesn't have such an item, he must have a channel to borrow one.

Having such a big backer, why should she worry alone?

Thinking of this, Asano Ryo quickly took out her phone from the inner pocket of her kimono, opened the chat software, and sent a message to Yuan Shi Jun:

"Yuan Shi Jun, there is an urgent matter I would like to ask you about. Under the witness of a Knight, I was forced to make a contract. May I ask if there is any way to exempt myself from the power of the contract?"

After thinking about it, she added:

"It doesn't need to completely solve the contract, just transfer the damage or provide a substitute, once is enough."

Zhang Yuanqing was having a good time with his beautiful mother-in-law, with wine glasses, candlelight, and a sumptuous dinner.

The location was in Fu Qingyang's villa.

Half an hour ago, the business had been discussed, and the mother-in-law had signed the contract without hesitation, choosing the second option: purchasing 5% of the shares for 1 billion Federal Dollars, and borrowing another 1 billion Federal Dollars from the company as initial capital without interest.

Fu Qingyang left after signing the contract. He still had to go to the training room to practice his slashes and didn't have time to deal with this annoying aunt.

Fu Xue said, hurry up and get out, don't disturb me and my son catching up.

At the dinner table, Zhang Yuanqing poured wine for his mother-in-law diligently, saying that she was truly a strong woman, and Guan Ya was far behind her. He said that they would run the company together in the future, make it bigger and stronger, and have a happy cooperation.

Fu Xue scolded him, saying don't think I don't know your little wolfish ambitions, you just want to tie me to your pirate ship, so that I can only go all the way to the black, but you offered a price I couldn't refuse, so I admit it.

Fu Xue drank a lot of wine, her eyes and eyebrows were red, her eyes were blurred and charming, and her voice gradually became louder.

She said you don't know, the Fu family has no human touch at all. If you want to live well, you have to work hard. Even the donkeys in the production team aren't as tired as I am.

Zhang Yuanqing said, Mom, you live abroad for a long time, but you can still use internet slang, we must drink to that.

Fu Xue finished the red wine in one gulp and continued: You don't know how hard my orphan and I work. My talent is average, my ability is average, and I have no skills except being pretty. I'm always squeezed out by that group of dogs in the family. Good things never come to me. That girl Guan Ya has talent, but she's not ambitious. Not only does she not understand me, but she also curses me. Don't think I don't know, I'm a Sentinel. Cursing me is fine, but she doesn't level up properly and is stuck at her current level, damn it.

Zhang Yuanqing was shocked: Mom, you're drunk, you're talking nonsense. Do you even remember who Guan Ya's mother is?

Fu Xue said aggrievedly, don't interrupt me, I haven't finished yet. Even my friends bully me. As soon as they hear I want to borrow money, they propose to take half of the shares, and they're so confident, saying that this is what she deserves. I argued with her for a long time, and she finally agreed to take only 10% of the shares. Oh, and she also scolded you for being a good-for-nothing.

Zhang Yuanqing was furious and said, who is that friend of yours? Tell me his address, and I guarantee he won't even recognize his own mother.

Fu Xue waved her hand and said, never mind her, it's good that you're filial and understand my difficulties, come on, son, let's have a drink.

After three rounds of wine, Fu Xue leaned into Zhang Yuanqing's arms and sobbed.

Zhang Yuanqing was about to call the hostess to move this drunken woman back to her room when his phone "dinged".

It was a message from Asano Ryo.

How to exempt myself from the power of the contract? If I had that ability, would I still be wearing a work hat and being intimate with Sister Guan Ya? Zhang Yuanqing muttered to himself.

"Ding!"

Soon, a second message came.

Zhang Yuanqing held the drunk Fu Xue in one arm and his phone in the other, frowning: "Once is enough? What happened to Asano Ryo?"
