"How so?" Chen Guan asked in his mind.

"Once you arrive in the Demon Realm, the spiritual energy within you will be constantly drained away by the environment, like throwing a wet sponge into the desert, where it will be instantly dried up."

"Your superpowers, such as creation and regeneration, and illusions, will be reduced by at least half their power over there, because the foundation that supports your superpowers will be suppressed."

"Not to mention, the environment of the Demon Realm itself is full of malice towards humans, who are alien beings. The demonic energy permeating the air will constantly erode your body and mind."

"If you stay here too long, even if you don't get killed by the demons, you'll go crazy first. You should know that well."

Spiritual energy is lost, supernatural abilities are weakened, and the environment is eroding.

This is equivalent to starting the game with three deadly debuffs.

No wonder Baihu asked him to find a helper.

"So?" Chen Guan asked Bal, "What suggestions do you have?"

"Suggestion? Lord Baal's suggestion is that you shouldn't go. It's much more comfortable to stay at home and lie around," Baal said lazily.

Chen Guan ignored this nonsense. Baal's attitude was completely unclear. He was advising him not to go, but also saying that it was okay if he really went.

This left him completely unsure of what the demon was thinking.

He began to quickly list the people he knew in his mind.

Long Ao?

No, explaining my identity is too much trouble.

An Changqing?

Even worse, the business failed halfway through.

The other students at school?

Eliminate it directly.

People from the Guiyuan Group?

Since Baihu said that, it means he won't send anyone else.

After much thought, he realized that while there were many capable fighters, the list of those he could bring into the Demon Realm and who knew his identity was pitifully short.

Or rather, there wasn't one at all; it was simply the emperor's new list.

"Heh heh, looks like you're not very popular, kid." Baal's mocking voice rang out again.

Chen Guan's temple throbbed.

Just as his thoughts were stuck, Baal, as if he had finally had enough of the show, slowly uttered a sentence.

"Have you forgotten? Lord Baal has more than just one contractor."

A figure appeared in my mind: silver hair, black eyes, and a face that always seemed to be covered with a layer of frost.

Guan Jinyue.

That woman who also signed a contract with Baal, whose strength is unfathomable and whose whereabouts are shrouded in mystery.

She is indeed the best choice.

Strong enough, also a contractor of Baal

Most importantly, she is a pure person who doesn't need to talk about feelings or morality; she is simple and direct.

The problem is, how do I contact her?

He didn't even know where Guan Jinyue was now.

"Tch, those brats, they're plotting against my contractors again," Baal muttered in dissatisfaction.

The "little devils" He was referring to were clearly the White Tiger and his group.

Chen Guan suddenly realized that Bai Hu had asked him to find helpers, and from the very beginning, the target was Guan Jinyue.

They knew they couldn't find anyone else, so they had to go to her.

Guan Jinyue's spatial capabilities are indeed a great guarantee of security.

Each step is interconnected and arranged perfectly.

Chen Guan had to admit that this was the only, and best, option at the moment.

"Can we get in touch with her?" Chen Guan asked Baal in his mind.

Baal's voice was filled with arrogance: "As long as you are all in this world, as long as your souls still bear the mark of Lord Baal, Lord Baal can build a bridge for you."

Barr didn't waste any more words.

Chen Guan felt a slight burning sensation deep within his mind at the mark that belonged to Baal.

He felt his consciousness being pulled by a force, rising infinitely, penetrating Huaqing College, and penetrating the layers of buildings and crowds in Taipei.

In his eyes, the whole world had become a vast network composed of countless points of light and lines.

In some distant corner of that network, another faintly glowing mark echoes his.

found it.

"The connection was successfully established." Baal's voice carried a smug sense of accomplishment: "Now it's up to you. Lord Baal will now take a look."

After he finished speaking, Baal's voice fell silent.

Almost at the same time, a clear, cold female voice rang out directly in Chen Guan's mind.

"What's wrong?"

It is related to the present.

Her voice, like her personality, is concise and to the point.

Chen Guan was stunned for a moment before he realized that this kind of direct spiritual dialogue was incredibly efficient.

He quickly organized his thoughts and conveyed his purpose in the same concise manner.

"I need your help to go to the Demon Realm."

He didn't give a reason or any details.

The most efficient way to communicate with someone like Guan Jinyue is to directly state your purpose and leverage.

Chen Guan offered his bargaining chip: "Do you need the Heart of Resurrection? If not, I can help you collect other things."

The other party's reply was brief: "Deal."

The spiritual thread connecting him and Guan Jinyue snapped with a snap.

There were no further questions, no inquiries about the time or place, and no confirmation of the sincerity of the desire for revival.

Guan Jinyue demonstrated what it means to be decisive and efficient through her actions.

In fact, Guan Jinyue's idea was very simple. Although he didn't know why Chen Guan wanted to go, the fact that he brought it up meant that he had already decided to go.

So, regardless of whether he agrees or not, he will go.

Since that's the case, I might as well go with them myself.

Putting everything else aside, her ability to protect herself is top-notch. Guan Jinyue doesn't trust others, she only trusts herself.

Her own sister was still in his leopard's space; how could she let Chen Guan go on an adventure alone? She would go with him even without any reward.

As for whether the desire for revival was actually useful to her, Guan Jinyue didn't care.

She wasn't a doctor and couldn't determine what could be effective for her sister's current condition.

All she could do was collect as many rare and precious materials as possible, trying them one by one through exhaustive search, until she found something that would come in handy.

Without power or connections, she couldn't obtain any special information, so Guan Jinyue wouldn't miss any opportunity.

Having been displaced since childhood and living a nomadic life for so long, her worldview was shaped by this experience: I want it all.

On the other side, Chen Guan stood still, the mental communication fading away, and the laughter and footsteps of his classmates around him returned to his ears.

Sunlight filtered through the leaves, casting dappled shadows on his face.

Business as usual.

The third day has arrived.

on Monday.

Chen Guan went to the vice president's office early in the morning.

Chen Beixuan, the academic demon, is now the new vice dean, making all students feel that the future is bleak.

But for Chen Guan, this was good news.

When he entered the office, Chen Beixuan was staring at a document with a dark face, muttering curses under his breath, clearly suffering from the administrative work.

"Report!" Chen Guan shouted from the doorway.

"Come in! What is it? Speak quickly! Stop dawdling!" Chen Beixuan didn't even look up.

"I'd like to take a long leave of absence," Chen Guan said, getting straight to the point.

Chen Beixuan let out a breath through his nose.

He pulled a sick leave slip from the drawer, signed his name in a flamboyant manner, and threw it directly onto the table.

"Thank you, teacher."
