Misery: There is a pawn shop here

Chapter 130 The Demon Prince

A contract, a deal. The Demon Prince laughed heartily, and after laughing, he simply signed his name on the contract with a playful expression.

Ningyuan.

What a brilliant name, my father!
As the contract gradually burned, the Demon Prince looked up at Li Xuanxiao and said, "Credit is the unconditional surrender of one's own interests to another's control. The weak abide by credit because they must rely on a set of rules called morality to survive. Those who are not afraid of being betrayed by others are confident that they have the confidence that others cannot betray them."

Until the contract before him turned into ashes and vanished, the Demon Prince looked at Li Xuanxiao and said.

"So, mysterious foreign merchant, did you have such confidence that you allowed the Demon Prince to break the seal?"

Li Xuanxiao smiled and replied, "Isn't this a testament to my belief in your noble character, Demon Prince?"

"Oh dear, this lie is so pure and undisguised." The Demon Prince shook his head and sighed, rubbing his forehead. "Indeed, no merchant is honest. It's really hard for a kind person like me to be a good merchant. Well, well, now, please start fulfilling your promise."

Li Xuanxiao nodded, raised his hand, and lightning flashed at his fingertips, constantly influencing the strange array that sealed the Demon Prince.

"As you wish."

With a simple "As you wish," the pawnshop owner unleashed his full power. Even though the seal binding the Demon Prince was a combination of the forbidden spells of the Three Dukes and the laws of the Four Generals of the Fire Prison, it was still incredibly fragile before Li Xuanxiao. In the place of pupa slumber, on the giant cocoon, evil light suddenly surged and strange phenomena arose. The entire land of the Fire Prison began to stir and become uneasy, and all around, the huge stone statues also began to emerge and change.

"Ah, this feeling of freedom is so strange yet so familiar, it's so moving. I'm almost moved to tears. Ah, I'm going to cry."

His slightly open eyes were completely different from when he was playing with Li Xuanxiao. His eyes were full of disdain and contempt, as if mocking the world. The moment his toes touched the ground, a heavy force pressed down, breaking through the seal. Even ghosts and gods were shocked, and the entire Buddhist prison land was shaken.

As Li Xuanxiao watched the Demon Prince emerge again, the huge commotion would undoubtedly attract the attention of the Curse Lord and others very soon.

"Now, is it time to finalize our deal?"

The moment Li Xuanxiao took a step forward, the Demon Prince retreated rapidly, his eyes filled with mockery.

"So, you have that confidence that makes people dare not break their promises, but do you have the ability to do it?" In a flash, the Demon Prince had already landed on the head of a stone statue, which was actually a kind-faced and gentle young man.

"Aren't you also trying to test whether I have the ability to do it?"

Li Xuanxiao was not surprised by the Demon Prince's actions. Just as he finished speaking, countless scarlet chains suddenly flew out from the void, weaving a huge net that enveloped the Demon Prince completely.

"Tsk." The Demon Prince raised an eyebrow, seemingly unsurprised that Li Xuanxiao possessed a means of countermeasure. He rubbed his foot against the stone statue beneath him a couple of times, his voice tinged with impatience, "Red Eyes, it's time to wake up. How long are you planning to sleep?"

As soon as the words were spoken, the surrounding stone seal began to crumble rapidly. The Demon Prince landed on the ground, and a white light instantly transformed into a ferocious, four-legged, gray-winged dragon that roared and charged directly at the chains in the air. However, just as Crimson Eyes charged towards the chains, the countless red chains vanished instantly, and Crimson Eyes' attack missed its mark. Then, the Demon Prince's voice was heard. Turning around, one saw that even more intricate chains had already bound the Demon Prince tightly. The Demon Prince, on the other hand, had an indifferent expression and even seemed to be chatting idly with Li Xuanxiao.

"It seems you do indeed possess extraordinary confidence and abilities that match that confidence." The Demon Prince showed no sign of struggling, as if he wasn't the one who had dodged the attack earlier.

"Keeping promises is an essential quality for a businessman. If you want to replace me as the owner of Youjian Pawnshop, you still need to hone your skills."

Li Xuanxiao spoke with a smile, and as he spoke, a golden light appeared and landed in his hand. Through the golden light, both Chi Jing and the Demon Prince could clearly see that it was a Buddha Heart.

"Roar!" Following that, Chi Jing roared and his huge body crashed down, but in the middle of the air, he collided with the barrier that Li Xuanxiao had built with a wave of his hand, unable to cross the barrier.

Li Xuanxiao looked at the demonic dragon in the sky and said, "Why get so excited? Perhaps you will like the Demon Prince more after he changes his appearance."

As they spoke, Li Xuanxiao tossed the Heavenly Buddha Heart into the air. Guided by Li Xuanxiao, the Buddha Heart flew directly into the Demon Prince's body. The Crimson Eye in the sky watched as the Buddha Heart merged with the Demon Prince, roaring and howling repeatedly, but to no avail. The moment the Buddha Heart merged into the Demon Prince's body, the chains that had bound him vanished completely, and the Demon Prince landed steadily with agility.

Touching his left chest, the Demon Prince raised an eyebrow. "This feeling is truly wondrous. Would you be interested in replacing my beloved father's heart with the same one? I can pawn his lifespan."

"It's a touching scene of a father parting with his son and laughing. It's a pity that there's only one Buddha's heart, and you can't make decisions for others. However, given your behavior, it seems that the Buddha's heart has very limited influence on you."

"If I say it's useless, will you take it back?"

Li Xuanxiao smiled without saying a word, while Chi Jing, who was in the air, transformed into human form and landed after Li Xuanxiao removed the magical restraints.

Due to their unique cultivation methods, members of the Fire Prison often develop a secondary body upon achieving significant progress. This is a characteristic of their cultivation. Crimson Eyes was the secondary body of the Demon Prince. Without Crimson Eyes' assistance, even the combined efforts of the three dukes and four generals of the Fire Prison would have made it extremely difficult to seal the Demon Prince. Looking at Crimson Eyes in his white robes with his gentle face, it's hard for most people to associate him with the Demon Prince.

"Who are you, and how did you infiltrate this place?" Chi Jing asked Li Xuanxiao.

“These are trivial questions, and there’s not much need to answer them.” As Li Xuanxiao spoke, he looked toward the entrance to the pupa chamber.

A powerful aura is rapidly approaching this place.

Within the entire Fire Prison, besides the extraordinary individual before Li Xuanxiao at this moment, there is only one other person whose aura is so powerful—

The King of the Modern-Day Burning Hell and the Lord of Curses!
