Suddenly, Chen Zhao had an idea, a very risky one!

The demonic crystal!

The gang leader might be saved if he ate the demonic crystal.

However, Chen Zhao must not fed him the entire piece.

Chen Zhao took out the demonic crystal, after which he raised his head and asked Morgery, “Do you have a hammer?”

“What’s that for?”

“Do you have it?” Chen Zhao did not explain more.

“Find him a hammer.”

Morgery turned around and left. After a short while, he returned with a hammer.

Chen Zhao did not know if the demonic crystal was indestructible, but he had no other choice at the moment.

Chen Zhao took the hammer and raised it high in the air.

However, suddenly, the Grim Reaper approached him.

“Are you going to save him with this?” A strange voice sounded off in Chen Zhao’s mind.

Chen Zhao tried to use his thoughts to reply. “Yes. Is there a problem with that?”

“Give me the demonic crystal. I’ll let him off.”

“The demonic crystals is worth much more than his life,” Chen Zhao replied.

“Yes, but if he dies, you’ll die as well.”

“Are you the Grim Reaper? Why do I feel like you’re more of a demon?”

“I’m indeed a demon. The Grim Reaper is only what you humans call me. To be precise, my race is known as Soulbringers.”

“Demon? A demon that I know told me that no other demons have entered the human world in the past thousand years.”

“Do you know other demons? Although we Soulbringers are also demons, we do not live in Hell. Instead, we are found in the crevice between Hell and the human world.”

“Then how do you send souls into Hell?”

“We’re not responsible for bringing souls into Hell. Fallen souls will drop into Hell themselves. We Soulbringers are only in charge of special souls, like his.”

“How is he special?”

“He is both a bad guy and a good guy. There are both the bright side and the dark side of human nature. We’ll bring him to the crevice. Then, we’ll strip the useless part off, extract the rest, and refine it into a demonic crystal like the one in your hand. Therefore, if you give that crystal to me, I’ll let him go.”

“Can you decide whether he lives or dies?”

“No I can’t, but I have a say in if he dies now. He still has some vitality in him. As long as you don’t kill him directly, he still has a chance to live.”

“I can only give you half of it. He’s only worth that much.”

“Deal,” the Soulbringer replied readily.

Then, Chen Zhao dropped the hammer, crushing the demonic crystal into many pieces.

It seemed like the crystal was nowhere near strong. Chen Zhao picked the pieces up.

Then, while the other two people were not watching, he gave half of the demonic crystal fragments to the Soulbringer.

“Are you not leaving?”
