Chapter 124: Chapter 119: Signing the Contract"Brother Yan." Fu Chao and the others stared blankly at Bai Yan, their eyes kindling with hope. Who was Bai Yan? At Mo City University, Bai Yan was the spokesperson for miracles; he was a living miracle, the most mysterious and powerful figure! "Brother Yan, what should we do?" Fu Chao tried to calm himself, thinking more thoroughly than the others. Even if Bai Yan said there was a way, it certainly wouldn’t allow them to regrow limbs for nothing; there must be a corresponding price to pay. Bai Yan smiled, waved his hand, and said, "Don’t be so nervous, the method isn’t difficult, it just requires you to pay a very small price." "Brother Yan, just say it, whatever the cost, we’re willing to pay it!" Fu Chao and the others’ eyes lit up, sensing hope. Li Xu, impatient by nature, quickly addressed Bai Yan, "Brother Yan, we are all your men! Just speak frankly, our limbs are already useless, what cost would we not be willing to pay!" Chen Fei, more composed, comforted him, "Alright, Li Xu, let Brother Yan finish, don’t rush him." Although Zhang Kailei remained silent, his eyes also showed a hint of longing and hope directed at Bai Yan. Nobody wanted to remain disabled for life; given the slightest chance, they were unwilling to give up! Bai Yan pulled over a stool, sat down in front of everyone, lit a cigarette, and tossed it to Li Xu, "Light up for the brothers." Fu Chao chuckled bitterly, "Brother Yan, the doctors said no smoking." "Smoke, it won’t hurt." Bai Yan said with an unconcerned smile. S~eaʀᴄh the nôᴠel Fire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Can doctors reattach your severed limbs? Now is the time to simply heed Brother Yan’s words. Fu Chao and the others complied; with Li Xu’s help, they struggled to light up. Although smoking was harmful to health, it did indeed stabilize their originally tense and sorrowful emotions somewhat. Then, Bai Yan’s gaze became serious and he said to them, "Actually, my method is very simple." "You can think of this method as my special ability. I will provide you with a contract. After signing, within a month, your limbs will regrow, but the price is that you must follow my orders, keep secrets, and abide by the terms of the contract." Bai Yan took a puff of his cigarette, briefly introducing the nature of the Demon Contract. Brother Yan has special abilities? Signing a contract? Fu Chao and the others exchanged glances, then Fu Chao laughed and said, "Brother Yan, stop keeping us in suspense, we’re all your little brothers, keeping secrets and following your orders has always been the way it is." Upon Fu Chao’s remark, everyone nodded in agreement. They admired Bai Yan from the bottom of their hearts and were willing to be his subordinates; nobody thought there was anything wrong with following Bai Yan’s orders. However, Li Xu, the more astute among them, keenly picked up on the word ’contract’ mentioned by Bai Yan. "Contract? Sounds kind of like something to do with demons!" Li Xu muttered; he loved reading novels and immediately associated the word contract with demons. Bai Yan smiled and snapped his fingers, "Correct, I am a Demon." "No, to be precise, I am going to turn you into Demons. I am the Demon Lord, your Lord!" Bai Yan stood up, exuding a sinister aura unique to the Demon Lord. This imposing presence was mesmerizing; although Bai Yan suppressed his aura, it still made Fu Chao and the other ordinary people feel uncomfortable. It felt like a mountain pressing down on their chests, stifling. Demons? Demon Lord? Fu Chao and the others were somewhat befuddled. Chen Fei, always cautious, asked tentatively, "Brother Yan, can I ask something? If we sign the contract and become Demons, are we still human? Or I mean, can we still maintain a human appearance?" After saying this, Chen Fei felt something was amiss and quickly clarified, "Don’t get me wrong, Brother Yan, what I mean is, if we look like Demons, we won’t be able to show ourselves in public anymore, and that would definitely cause you trouble." Fu Chao and the others also looked to Bai Yan, waiting for his explanation. Nobody wanted to turn into a grotesquely shaped Demon. Bai Yan looked somewhat surprised and said, "When did I ever say that becoming a Demon meant you’d definitely turn into those grotesque shapes?" "Let me put it this way, sign the contract, exchange your loyalty to me for the powerful Demon Power, and maintain a human appearance, indistinguishable from ordinary people," Bai Yan continued, lighting another cigarette with a smile. "Powerful Demon Power... like you, able to fight?" Chen Fei asked. "Maybe even stronger than me." Bai Yan said with a smile. He was not wrong; the strength of a Demon Lord lies not in combat ability, but in their power to command. There are numerous species in the Demon Race, with many Abyss Demons more ferocious than the Demon Lords themselves. Fu Chao roared excitedly, "Fuck! What the hell are we waiting for, brothers! Such a great opportunity, what’s there to think about!" "Brother Yan, the contract! I’ll sign it!" Fu Chao laughed loudly, and Chen Fei and Li Xu also nodded in agreement, all accepting what Fu Chao said. Sometimes freedom is indeed precious, but that’s relative. As long as they can have their limbs back, any price they have to pay is worth it! A thought crossed Bai Yan’s mind, and with the surprised looks of Fu Chao and the others, a pitch-black contract appeared in the palm of his hand. "Brother Yan, how do we sign it?" Fu Chao and the others looked at the contract in front of them, a bit confused. Both Fu Chao’s and Chen Fei’s hands were broken, utterly incapable of signing the Demon Contract. "There are many methods to sign: blood drops, signing... For example, Fu Chao can just look at the contract and say: I, [Fu Chao], hereby swear by my True Name to sign this contract. That would suffice," Bai Yan said with a smile. Fu Chao did as instructed, staring intently at the black contract on his hospital bed, and spoke in a deep voice, "I, [Fu Chao], hereby swear by my True Name to sign this contract." A transparent energy detached itself from within Fu Chao’s forehead; it was a fragment of Fu Chao’s soul. The soul fragment separated during the contract signing doesn’t harm the body; it simply makes one feel tired for a few days. Fu Chao’s soul fragment merged into the black contract. A flash of light passed over the contract, and then the cuneiform script, as if coming to life, began to crawl slowly. "How magical!" Zhang Kailei was dazzled, unable to help exclaiming in amazement. This was just like being in a movie; how could such magical things exist in the real world! It’s impossible to fathom Brother Yan; he has too many secrets! A deeper fear and respect for Bai Yan emerged in the hearts of Fu Chao and the others. Bai Yan put away the contract with a smile: "That’s it." Chen Fei, Li Xu, and Zhang Kailei, following Fu Chao’s method, also signed the contracts. After putting away the contracts, Bai Yan said loudly, "Now for the second and a very important step." "Open your minds, and in a moment, a voice will question you deep in your souls, asking if you are loyal to me. Be true to yourselves, and you’ll naturally pass." Bai Yan instructed, and Fu Chao and the others nodded their heads one after another, faces full of excitement and anticipation. The reason Bai Yan did this was to enhance the Demon Planting, to infuse the demons from the Demon Breeding Farm into the bodies of Fu Chao and others, granting them the four-dimensional attributes and Talent abilities of Abyss Demons! To drastically increase their strength! In other words, once someone has signed a Demon Contract with Bai Yan, Bai Yan could endow anyone with the powers of the Abyss Demons he has cultivated. That’s the terrifying aspect of a Demon Lord! If there’s sufficient Demon Power, and enough Demon Servants, mass troop enhancement is not a problem for Bai Yan. Bai Yan opened the Demon Breeding Farm. He had already spent 40 points of Demon Power to cultivate four Demon Eggs. He selected the four Demon Eggs from the Demon Breeding Farm, and they turned into red glints that burrowed into the foreheads of the four individuals. Ten minutes later, all four, Fu Chao and the others, were successfully implanted with demons. A space was opened up inside each person’s Sea of Consciousness, where a blood-red Demon Egg pulsed. Bai Yan took the 310 points of Demon Power obtained from sacrificing Brother Feng and the others, investing a hundred points in each person such as Fu Chao, successfully hatching a Demon Larva. The Demon Larva wiggled its body, then suspended itself calmly in the Sea of Consciousness of Fu Chao and the others. Blood-red energy, like threads, slowly separated from the interior of the Demon Larva in the Sea of Consciousness, seeping into the bodies of Fu Chao and the others and slowly healing their bodies. "Brother Yan, my wounds feel a bit itchy." Li Xu said somewhat awkwardly. He wanted to scratch his wounds but was afraid of tearing them open again. "It’s good that it’s itchy; the wounds are healing. At best, it’ll take a few days, and at worst, one month to grow back limbs." Bai Yan said with a smile, "During this time, you guys come up with some excuses to hide it from your families. Oh, and there’s some information about Demon Servants that I will send through the contract to your Sea of Consciousness later. You can take a look and will roughly understand the current state of your bodies." Those mundane humans who have signed a Demon Contract are known as Demon Servants in the Abyss World. Any Demon Servant can undergo Demon Planting and can be enhanced by the Abyss Demons that Bai Yan commands, improving their own strength. As for whether Planting is necessary and what level of demon is used for the Planting, it all depends on Bai Yan’s mood... But after being implanted, the Demon Larva in the Sea of Consciousness of a Demon Servant cannot join the Demon Breeding Farm to evolve by devouring each other into higher-level demons; it can only be nurtured through Demon Power. The silver lining, though, is that the Demon Larvae nurtured through Demon Power can choose their own evolutionary direction. For example, the Small Inferior Demon and the Winged Demon with flight capabilities, the Demon Dog with a variety of Spell-like abilities, and the powerful Flame Demon with a strong physique. After the initial enhancement of the Demon Larvae, the physical conditions of Fu Chao and the others have already surpassed their prior states, despite their disabilities. Given their current strength post-Demon Egg augmentation, if they had intact limbs, each of them taking on several dozen strong men would not be a problem. Bai Yan was looking forward to seeing how Fu Chao and the other three would grow in the future.
