Chapter 59: Chapter 59: The Mad God

In the chat group, Jiang Ruochan’s avatar flickered.

"My power is a dual attribute of light and dark. I got seriously injured while exploring the ruins earlier, causing an imbalance of power within me, triggering conflicts and worsening my injuries."

"During my recovery, the old guy suggested I go to school, saying the relaxed atmosphere might alleviate the increasing evil energy I carry."

"But so far, it doesn’t seem to be working."

"Chairman, can I know what tier of Transcendent you are?" Zong Zheng Nan Mo asked curiously.

Jiang Ruochan replied indifferently to this question, "Currently, I possess approximately Tier Five Peak strength, but to prevent aggravating my injuries, I can’t act casually." 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

So strong! Jiang Hou and Zong Zheng Nan Mo both showed astonishment on their faces.

To still possess Tier Five Peak strength while injured and with conflicting powers inside, how strong would she be at her peak? Late-tier Six or Tier Six Peak?

After the amazement, Jiang Hou asked, "By the way, Chairman, is there any issue with me having killed a person from the Demon Dragon Divine Hall this time?"

Last night, due to evenly matched strength and the Witch Patterned Burly Man attacking with lethal moves, Jiang Hou didn’t leave anyone alive, crushing him with a single blow.

"It doesn’t matter. The other party took the initiative to enter our Celestial Punishment range and cause trouble. Such a person dying is just dying, and that person wasn’t from the Demon Dragon Divine Hall anyway."

"Wasn’t he trying to recruit Jiang Chong into the Demon Dragon Divine Hall?" Both were taken aback.

Jiang Ruochan’s avatar flickered: "That person was a member of the Giant Demon Association, one of the Demon Dragon Divine Hall’s affiliates."

"This force isn’t very strong, a medium power, entrenched in the neighboring country’s dark organization, long-term conducting illegal human experiments and criminal activities underground."

"Currently, this force also takes on the role of an intermediary, helping Transcendents from the country and nearby cities join the Demon Dragon Divine Hall."

"For every Transcendent they introduce, they receive a reward from the Demon Dragon Divine Hall, the amount depending on the potential and numbers of the Transcendents who join."

"This is even possible..." Zong Zheng Nan Mo was stunned that this Giant Demon Association actually runs a labor agency in the Extraordinary Realm.

Compared to Zong Zheng Nan Mo’s surprise, Jiang Hou saw another side to this: "Chairman, what exactly is the Demon Dragon Divine Hall trying to do?"

Globally, only a minority of Transcendents join official forces of their respective countries, with most dispersed and hidden, forming an underground black market via communication tools.

This is a formidable force; if they all joined the Demon Dragon Divine Hall, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Who knows what they want to do, suddenly overturning agreements; maybe their god went mad." Jiang Ruochan said casually.

Zong Zheng Nan Mo’s eyes widened: "The Demon Dragon Divine Hall has a god?"

Jiang Ruochan calmly said, "Indeed, a True God. When Transcendents open up, some have already stepped into the Divine Domain, but they all have more or less issues."

"Besides, due to the scarcity of divine material, many powerful individuals went mad before they could enter the Divine Domain, becoming terrifying Evil Gods or Demon Gods of the ruins."

"Do you know why you rarely see those powerful figures active in the real world? They’re all deep within the ruins."

"Strive to improve yourself, step into Tier Four soon. The real world is quite dull," concluded Jiang Ruochan, her avatar dimming and going offline.

Though Jiang Ruochan went offline, her words left Jiang Hou somewhat grave. Clearly, not just Low-tier Transcendents can lose control; even top-tier ones can too.

While Low-tier Transcendents losing control might just result in a few murders and then being suppressed by the authorities...

A Peak Extraordinary losing control would become a ruin’s Demon God or Evil God, possibly leading polluted creatures to invade the real world and slaughter the living.

Would he, too, lose control one day, turning into a true world-destroying beast?

......

Afternoon, a bit past five.

In the kitchen, a girl wearing an apron hummed a tune, chopping potato strips skillfully.

On the small balcony, Jiang Hou was collecting clothes with a clothes drying fork while the washing machine hummed in the background.

The weather in late October was getting colder, with a growing temperature difference between morning and night.

Upon returning today, Qin Siyu dug out some autumn clothes, asking Jiang Hou to wash them so they would be ready to wear once the weather gets colder.

These clothes had been stored for a year and would have a smell if not washed.

Although the girl seemed to be bouncing around all day, this household wouldn’t run smoothly without her.

Meanwhile, during Jiang Hou’s dinner, in a small town on the neighboring country’s border, hundreds of kilometers away from Yidu...

On the top floor of a building labeled as a Biological Research Institute, a beautiful woman dressed as a secretary reported while holding a document, "Director, we just received news that Cheng Mountain is dead."

Sitting in a chair, wearing a white coat, a middle-aged man about forty frowned slightly, "Dead? How did he die?"

As a Late-tier Three expert of Witch Patterns, Cheng Mountain was considered a senior elite in the Giant Demon Association.

"Yesterday, he infiltrated Yidu, the provincial city of Dongqin border province, to assist two Low-tier Transcendents intending to join the Demon Dragon Divine Hall, one of whom had elemental control ability."

"Unexpectedly, a conflict occurred with a member of Celestial Punishment, and he was killed on the spot. I learned of this only this afternoon through the underground black market there."

"Yidu, Celestial Punishment..." The middle-aged man pondered, then spoke.

"Sherly, notify everyone to gather, halt other matters, and prepare to accompany me to Yidu."

The secretary’s eyes widened in shock, "Director, we cannot; it’s not worth offending Celestial Punishment over a Tier Three member. We can’t afford it."

The middle-aged man replied indifferently, "Of course, I know we can’t afford Celestial Punishment. We’re going to Yidu for other reasons."

"Even without Cheng Mountain’s death, I plan to mobilize all our forces there next."

The secretary was stunned for a moment before asking hesitantly, "Director, is this matter important?"

"Yes, the task given by the Demon Dragon Divine Hall, to track down the perfect test subject that escaped from the research institute there."

"A few days ago, the corresponding ancient relic in the Demon Dragon Divine Hall’s research institute sensed the Ancient Angel Power within the test subject had been activated."

"Although that ancient power appeared briefly, it was enough for the research institute’s experts to lock onto its approximate location, in and around Yidu City of Dongqin."

"Our task is to find that perfect test subject and relay the information back to the Demon Dragon Divine Hall."

"Of course, if we manage to capture the test subject and return, the reward will be even more astonishing, enough to elevate everyone’s strength to another level."

At this, the middle-aged man’s breathing grew rapid.

The Giant Demon Association was a medium power with just over a dozen core members. The strongest of them, he, had Tier Five strength but had been stalled there for a long time due to the risk of losing control.

Thus, he pinned his hopes on the Demon Dragon Divine Hall, hoping to be granted precious resources to purify his will and soul after completing this task, for he dared not attempt a breakthrough to Tier Six otherwise.

Upon hearing that the Demon Dragon Divine Hall’s rewards were immense, the secretary’s eyes too turned slightly red.

But soon, she hesitated and asked, "But Director, provinces like Yidu have Tier Six top-tier experts stationed at Celestial Punishment branches. Just one can suppress our association."

"Don’t worry, Yidu is about to face a Demon God’s invasion, and that top-tier expert needs to guard the passage entrance constantly, too busy to attend to anything else."

"We’re merely there to find someone; as long as we act cautiously and don’t provoke Celestial Punishment, there should be no issue."
