The next morning, Bai He went to find Yu Feng. She told him that she wanted to buy a house.
"What?" Yu Feng looked at him in shock." You were chased out by Tracy? If you don't have a place to stay, you can stay at my house. In the Imperial Capital, you can't buy a house without ten thousand gold coins.”
"How could I be chased out!" "You really think I'm a pauper!" Bai He said angrily.”
He didn't know why, but talking to Yu Feng was always especially relaxed, as if they were old friends who had known each other for many years.
"You have money?" Yu Feng looked at White Crane suspiciously. His clothes were only worth a few silver coins from head to toe. Compared to the average Magician or Swordsman, he was just average.
Bai He suddenly took out a Dragon Crystal Soul from the Dimensional Space.
"This, this is the Dragon Crystal Soul! Where did you find it?" Yu Feng looked at Bai He in disbelief.
"Hehe, as expected of a noble. You know your stuff!”Bai He casually threw the Dragon Crystal Soul to him and said proudly,""This is for you. I still have a lot. Take me to a place where I can sell it!”
"You, you still have a lot?" Yu Feng held the Dragon Crystal Soul with both hands and stared blankly at the White Crane. He didn't react for a long time, thinking that he was dreaming.
Bai He fiercely kicked Yu Feng. Only then did he believe that he wasn't dreaming. He brought Bai He to the largest merchant association in the imperial capital in high spirits. St. Toque Adventurer's Chamber of Commerce.
When they walked through the entrance of the Chamber of Commerce, there were already people who saw Yu Feng, a famous person in the Imperial Capital. Immediately, a shop assistant came out to welcome him, greeting him with a smile on his face,"Lord Yu Feng, if you need anything, I will immediately prepare it for you.”
Yu Feng waved his hand and said indifferently,"Call your guild leader out and tell him that there's a big deal coming."”
The shop assistant smiled and quickly replied,"Yes, sir! Yes! Please wait a moment!" As she spoke, she turned around and ran inside.
Not long after, the shop assistant came out with a fat middle-aged man. Due to his fat face, his facial features were tightly squeezed together, and his eyes were narrowed into a line. He looked like a standard profiteer. He was the president of the St. Toque Chamber of Commerce, Roman.
He led the two of them to a clean hut and asked with a flattering smile,"Lord Yu Feng is willing to patronize this store, it is truly an honor to bring light to my humble abode!”
"I won't say anything else, President Roman. My friend has something he wants to sell. I wonder if you can afford it?”Yu Feng laughed.
"Lord Yu Feng is underestimating me too much. As long as the item is good, you can name your price!”
The White Crane stretched out its hand and took out a Dragon Crystal Soul and handed it to him.
Luomu's eyes widened as he held it in his arms and looked at it carefully." This, this is the Dragon Crystal Soul!”
" Chairman Roman, I only recommended my friend here because the Adventurer's Chamber of Commerce in St. Toque is rich. You have to pay a good price!" Yu Feng said.”
Roman greedily looked at the Dragon Crystal Soul in his hand and hurriedly agreed,"
"Of course! Of course! Lord Yu Feng's friend is my friend!”
After looking at it for a long time, Luo Mu finally shifted his gaze from the Dragon Crystal Soul to the White Crane.
"I wonder how much this young master is going to sell it for?”
"I want to settle down in the capital," Bai He said lightly,"I hope to buy a house." As for how much the Dragon Crystal Soul is worth, I think the guild leader should know better than me.”
Luomu stared at the white crane and said softly,""I will use a house and a million gold coins to buy this Dragon Crystal Soul, and I promise not to reveal its origin.”
Yu Feng was just about to say something when he was stopped by Bai He. As expected of the president of the number one Chamber of Commerce in the Imperial Capital, this Roman was definitely not as simple as he looked. He easily grasped Bai He's weakness.
Bai He smiled." President is really not simple. Let's just leave it at that." I believe your house will satisfy me.”
"Of course, of course!" Roman laughed so hard that the flesh on his face trembled.
After leaving the St. Toque Chamber of Commerce, Roman personally brought Bai He and Yu Feng to look at the houses.
This was a three-story mansion. It didn't look eye-catching from the outside, but it was very spacious inside.
Although it had been idle for a long time and the walls were covered in a thick layer of dust, the marble floor and the exquisite embossed on the walls vaguely showed the scenery of the past.
Luomu was very good at observing people's expressions. Before Bai He could speak, he took the initiative to introduce.
"The owner of this house was also a merchant. Unfortunately, he offended Prince Ocard and his entire family was executed.”
"Oh? Could it be that the previous owner of this house was the president of the Vetans Chamber of Commerce, Lordfill?”Yu Feng clearly knew this person.
Luo Mu nodded. Unfortunately, Bai He and Yu Feng didn't notice the flash of hatred in his eyes.
The White Crane was very satisfied with this house. The first floor consisted of a wide hall and four side halls. This was designed for banquets and dances. Since its former owner was a businessman, there was naturally a variety of social interactions. The second and third floors were divided into nearly 20 rooms of various sizes, as well as a luxurious bathroom.
There was a small garden outside the house. Unfortunately, because no one was looking after it, it had long been overgrown with weeds. Even the two mighty knight sculptures were covered with vines, as if they were wearing a layer of green armor.
What made Bai He the most satisfied was that this house actually had a spacious basement, which was a place specially used to practice magic and martial arts. However, Bai He faintly sensed that there seemed to be traces of dark magic fluctuations left here.
Could the owner of this house be a demon or a Dark Mage? Bai He secretly paid attention to it.
After sending off Luo Mu and Yu Feng, Bai He stood in the empty hall, a warm feeling surging in his heart. After a long time, he finally had a home!
For a long time, the dark fate had been like a heavy burden on his body, so heavy that he could hardly breathe. At this moment, in this " home ", he suddenly felt much more relaxed.
The white crane summoned a spatial magic array in the middle of the hall, bringing Night Rain, Erlini, five elves, and seven powerful slaves over. Elena retracted her wings and returned to her human form.
"Are you satisfied with our new home?”Bai He even deliberately emphasized the word "we" to tease Elena.
Elena was flustered by Bai He's teasing. No one in the Divine Realm dared to speak to her in such a frivolous tone. She didn't know what to do. She could only glare at Bai He and turn her head away.
The young man in front of her was hard to figure out. At times, he was like a domineering demon king, making people shudder. At other times, he was like a frivolous prodigal son who said rude words to her. The huge contrast made Elena involuntarily attracted to him.
"Elena, lead your believers to clean the room!”The white crane pointed at Arlene and the five elves. "I heard that elves are a very hardworking race!”
"Wha…what?" Elena stared at the white crane in disbelief. She couldn't believe her ears. It was treating her and the elves like maids.
"Don't even think about it!”
"Elena, you don't want to live in a house full of dust and cobwebs, do you? "If you don't clean it up before I come back…" At this point, he paused and glanced at the white-haired elf with a lecherous gaze."You know the consequences!"
Elena and the five elves immediately quieted down. Only Arlene frowned and looked around. She was the only one who had actually cleaned a room, so she knew how much work it took to clean such a mansion.
"Ye Yu, you stay here and clean up.”
"Yes, Master." Ye Yu's tone was always calm and indifferent. Even if Bai He told her to die, she would still carry it out without hesitation.
"Hewitt, Ken Ni, Sen Ka, Chen Yue, Yin Xue, Ying Xin, Yu Xuan, you guys follow me to buy things.”
"Yes, Master!" The seven of them replied in unison.
Three handsome men in warrior attire and four beautiful women in mage attire attracted countless gazes the moment they appeared. The crowd pointed at them and speculated about their origins.
This was exactly what Bai He hoped for, because he was very clear about one thing. Being an unknown commoner, it was impossible for him to make a difference in the human world. Therefore, he changed his previous low-key style and gradually became a person who influenced human society. Of course, this process could not be too fast, or it would only arouse the suspicion and vigilance of the humans and the Protoss.
"Young master Bai He, why are you here?”Three people suddenly squeezed out of the crowd. The white crane took a look. It was Laurel, Trene, and Nasha. The three of them went out shopping together and happened to meet the swaggering White Crane.
Bai He greeted the three of them and replied,""I want to settle down in the Imperial Capital, so I bought a house. I'm thinking of purchasing some necessities.”
Nasha loved to buy things. Hearing Bai He's words, she volunteered to buy things for him.
But Treny stared at the seven people behind Bai He in confusion, unable to guess the origins of these outstanding young men and women. It was a pity that she would never have guessed that these people were just lowly slaves a month ago. In the past few days, their temperament had completely changed. Even Prince Ocard and his men would probably not be able to recognize them.
"Are these your friends?" Laurel was the first to ask the question in her heart.
"They are the servants I hired." Bai He didn't want to dwell on this issue, so he immediately changed the topic."I'm not very good at choosing decorations. Can I ask the three ladies to help me choose?”
Laurel looked at the excited Nasha and then at Treney. Seeing that she had no intention of opposing, she agreed.
With Laurel and Nasha, these two experts who knew their stuff, the white crane had a lot less trouble. None of the shop assistants dared to take out the inferior products. From the exquisite furniture to the simple decorations, all of them were the best of the best, causing the White Crane to suffer a heavy loss of gold coins. In the end, Laurel even promised to give Bai He some of the carpet that was laid in her room. It was made from the leather of a high-level magic beast. Even in the Imperial Capital, it was not something that could be bought with money.
After strolling on the streets for an entire afternoon, Bai He finally brought everyone back with a full load.
When they returned home, Elena, Ye Yu, Erlini, and the five elves were all covered in dust from head to toe. However, there weren't many rooms left.
However, Elena seemed to be very interested in cleaning the room. When she saw Bai He and the others return, not only did she not complain, she ignored them and continued to sweep the floor.
The five elves looked at the white crane pitifully. They clearly remembered what the white crane had said before it left. They didn't know how the white crane would deal with them.
This scene put Bai He in a good mood. He directed everyone to start arranging the furniture. Everyone was an expert in magic and martial arts, so it was naturally effortless for them to move things. It wasn't until evening that the mansion truly felt like home.
Darkness gradually spread in the room. Bai He took out a large pile of dragon crystal soul from the alternate dimension and inlaid it on the roof and walls. The room instantly became as bright as day.
Arlene looked at everything in a daze. She had a bad feeling and could only pray. Great God, please wake me up from this nightmare! Unfortunately, the god she believed in was also used by the white crane as a maid. It could not even protect itself, so how could it take care of her?
Looking at his masterpiece, Bai He felt proud. Almost all the furniture he bought had a classical oriental flavor. Under Bai He's unique arrangement, the entire house was filled with an oriental atmosphere.
Of course, the others did not know where this creativity came from. They only felt that this kind of decoration had an elegant and elegant feeling, as if everything in this house grew naturally in nature. He couldn't help but secretly praise Bai He for having such a deep heart.
Everything was arranged properly, but Bai He felt that something was still missing. He suddenly remembered that it would be a pity if he didn't have a few pets in such a big house.
Thinking of this, he summoned a huge magic array and instantly disappeared in front of everyone.
While everyone was still in shock, the magic array suddenly lit up again. The white crane appeared in front of everyone with six dog-like magic beasts and six beautiful fiery red birds.
"Wind Wolf, Fire Bird!" Aierlini exclaimed.
The Windwolf and the Firebird were both magical beasts of the sixth rank. On the Atte Continent, magical beasts were at most grade-9. Any one of these grade-6 magical beasts could easily kill a few swordmaster-level warriors.
However, these Windwolves were more like Winddogs now. They were indeed grade-6 magical beasts. They instinctively felt that everyone in this room had great strength, and the person beside them was a demon that they absolutely could not provoke. Therefore, they all drooped their ears and curled up on the ground, looking at this unfamiliar environment pitifully. The six fire birds were also frightened and flew around the room.
Elena loved pets the most. When she was in the Divine Realm, she only had one Holy Light Beast to accompany her through her lonely times. Now that she saw the cute appearance of the Wind Wolf, she couldn't help but run over and hug one of the Wind Wolves in her arms.
The Wind Wolf licked Elena's face like a spoiled child, then looked at the White Crane with fear in its eyes. It kept digging into Elena's arms, as if it wanted to hide.
His few magic beasts also surrounded Elena, rubbing their silver-gray fur against her. Even the Firebird stopped flying around and circled around her.
When Bai He saw this scene, he could only smile bitterly.
Am I really that scary? He suddenly felt lonely. Perhaps in the eyes of others, he would always be a demon that people feared and hated. Even Ye Yu and his slaves saw themselves as a terrifying evil god, and most of them kept their distance.
Perhaps this was the fate of darkness. They lived a lonely life under the gazes of respect, hatred, and disgust. The Dark Demon King's bloodthirstiness and slaughter might be just to relieve this terrible loneliness…Will I become like that one day?
Bai He's heart instantly turned cold, the happiness that had originally surged up from having a new home suddenly disappeared. So what if he had a gorgeous house and a group of loyal servants? He was still a lonely person, without friends or relatives, only heavy fate and responsibility.
The gentle look in White Crane's eyes suddenly turned cold. It looked at Elena and said coldly,""Elena, now is the time to fulfill your promise!”With that, he turned around and walked towards the training grounds in the basement.
Elena patted the Wind Wolf's head lovingly and reluctantly followed Bai He to the training ground. The remaining few people could not hold back their curiosity and followed him.
The white crane had already set up a barrier outside the house, so there was no need to worry that the sounds and magic fluctuations inside would be detected by the people outside.
He stood in the middle of the training field, calmly releasing all the dark power in his body. Ye Yu and the slaves who were following behind him were of the dark attribute. Other than a strong sense of oppression, they did not feel much.
Elena was the strongest among the light elves, but Arlene and the five elves were all trembling in fear.
Elena pursed her lips and said disdainfully,""Are you showing off your strength? You don't have to do that. Compared to the Dark Demon King of the past, you're still far from it.”
She paused for a moment and continued," Or do you think that you can use the power of darkness to cast a light spell?" Only humans and elves call light spells holy spells to show the respect of the gods?"”
Bai He ignored her, coldly staring at the relief embossed of a knight on the wall of the martial arts field. There was nothing special about the embossed sculpture, but there was a black gem embedded in the helmet, which seemed a little out of place.
At this moment, even Ye Yu seemed to have sensed something. He instantly pulled out the "Kiss of Death" hanging on his body…and looked in the direction of the white crane's gaze, focusing his attention and being on guard.
"I think you should know my identity. If you don't come out, you can stay there forever!”Bai He said coldly. A ball of black flames burned in his palm, ready to strike at any moment. In fact, if he wanted to attack, there was no need to gather his strength in advance. This was only for the purpose of deterrence.
The black gemstone on the knight 'embossed suddenly exploded. After a burst of black smoke, a man in ragged clothes slowly got up from the ground and asked in a trembling voice,"You…you are the Dark Demon King?"
Everyone was shocked by this sudden turn of events.
The hair of the person in front of him was messy and had completely covered his face above his mouth. His face could not be seen clearly, and his beard had grown to his chest.
The elf, who had a keen sense of smell, covered her nose when she smelled the stench coming from his body.
Bai He didn't even frown, coldly saying,"You are very smart. Who are you?”
The man in front of her suddenly crawled on the ground and said loudly in a sad and indignant tone,"Demon King! Please let me be your loyal dog and follow you to trample humans under your feet!”
"Oh?" Bai He looked at him coldly." Aren't you human?”
The man's eyes were filled with hatred as he said fiercely,""I'm no longer a human. I've dedicated my soul to the Demon Race. Helping the Demon Race conquer the human race is my only wish!”
Ellini said disdainfully,""Shameless!"
The middle-aged man glared at Erlini with hatred. The venomous look in his eyes made Erlini shudder.
"My name is Lordfill, and I was the original owner of this house.”Lordfill said his name in a low and gentle tone. But Bai He could hear that his calm tone hid endless sorrow.
" Ah!" Arlene exclaimed softly, but she immediately covered her mouth with her hand. As the high priest of the temple, she had naturally heard of this person's name.
" I used to be the president of the Vance Chamber of Commerce in the Imperial Capital…" Lordfill slowly recounted his past.
It turned out that the Vetans Chamber of Commerce was the largest in the Imperial Capital, even more famous than Roman's St. Toque Chamber of Commerce.
He had a beautiful wife, two beautiful daughters, and a young son. This should have been a happy family, but unfortunately, his huge wealth was envied by others. This person was Roman.
Roman and Lordfill had been friends since they were young. Both of them had inherited their father's Chamber of Commerce. Roman's father had gotten into the bad habit of gambling in his later years, and the wealth of the Chamber of Commerce had almost been squandered by him. When Roman inherited the Chamber of Commerce, he was almost at the end of his rope. It was thanks to Lordfill's help that the St. Toque Merchant Association was able to revive and slowly develop.
However, Roman was not a grateful person. He only had gold coins in his heart! He was both jealous and hateful of Lordfill. He was jealous of Lordfill's talent in business. He hated that without the Vetans Merchant Association, the business of the Imperial Capital would be completely in his hands! With this mentality, he secretly looked for an opportunity to trip up Lordfill.
Perhaps it was God's will. Three years ago, when Lordfill was doing business in a foreign land, he accidentally obtained a demonic sword. It was a weapon left behind by a high-level demon in the human world during the Great Divine-Infernal War. Because this demon was seriously injured, he sealed all his strength in the sword, hoping that one day the demon race would discover it and bring his sword back to the demon world to give it to his clansmen. After a long period of time, this sword fell into the hands of a declining noble. He happened to meet Lordfill and bought the sword. Lordfill was just a merchant. He couldn't feel the dark energy fluctuations on the sword at all, so he brought it back to the Imperial City.
Roman had accidentally discovered this secret, so he colluded with Prince Ocard and agreed that as long as he could trip up Lordfill, all of Lordfill's wealth, as well as his beautiful daughter and wife, would belong to Ocard.
Prince Ocard, who had been coveting the two daughters of Lordfill for a long time, naturally agreed.
One night, Prince Ocard brought his personal guards and the people from the Temple to surround Lordfill's house.
Fortunately, one of Roman's subordinates had received a favor from Lordfill in the past. After learning of Roman's plot, he secretly informed Lordfill. Lordfill left the Imperial Capital with his family in shock, leaving Prince Ocard empty-handed.
However, Lordfill did not escape from his tragic fate. Prince Ocard and the Temple issued a wanted order for the demon apostle, Lordfill, to be wanted throughout the country.
Under Prince Ocard's propaganda, Lordfill was quickly described as a heinous demon who sold his soul to the demons. Due to their hatred for the demons, Lordfill became a wanted criminal. In a small town, someone recognized them and informed the Temple.
The Lordfill family was quickly captured by the Knights of Light of the Temple. Only Lordfill survived because he went to look for water.
In order to save his family, Lordfill unsealed the sword and obtained the power of darkness. When Roman's men told him to run away, he already knew the secret of the sword. However, out of his faith in God, he did not undo the seal, because if he did that, he would really become a demon, and there would be no chance for him to be vindicated.
But now, he finally understood that this was a complete conspiracy. No matter how innocent he was, the Temple would only believe Prince Ocard's words. He was in despair. At this moment, he finally realized that only with strength could he survive.
Unfortunately, he came to his senses too late. Three months later, when he returned to the capital to save his family, he heard the news that made him despair. His eight-year-old son died of illness on the way back to the Imperial Capital. His two daughters were also raped to death by Prince Ocard. His beautiful wife was demoted to an official prostitute. The prostitutes in the Imperial Capital were rumored to be Lordfill's wife. They almost broke the door of the brothel. The poor woman died of humiliation and hatred under such torture.
Lordfill felt as if the sky had collapsed. His originally happy family had been destroyed. He was in complete despair. There was only hatred left in his heart. He hated Roman, Prince Ocard, the Temple, and all humans.
That night, he went to Roman's house and dismembered his wife and two sons inch by inch in front of Roman. Just as he was about to kill Roman in the cruelest way, the people of the Temple heard the news and rushed over.
After a fierce battle, Lordfill escaped with heavy injuries. In order to avoid the pursuit of the Temple, he took the magic crystal stone with spatial magic from the magic sword and created a very small Dimensional Space. He could almost completely hide his power inside. Thus, Lordfill hid the magic crystal in his basement.
However, this magic crystal could only be used once. Once it was out, it could not be re-entered. Therefore, Lordfill had to rely on the water and food hidden inside to live in this small space for three years. While recovering his injured body, he thought of a plan for revenge.
Today, he suddenly felt a powerful dark force outside, and he could not help but be surprised and happy. The only one who could easily detect him hiding in a Dimensional Space and allow his voice and power to pass through the Dimensional Space was probably the Lord God of Darkness. Therefore, he hurriedly came out of the dimensional space and excitedly pledged his loyalty to the White Crane.#
