Are you kidding me?! The boss of the Hell Dungeon is a loli!

"That heartless bastard! I waited for him in the crystal for a hundred years, and he actually dared to have a child with another female ghost!"

The white-haired woman tugged at the chains, causing a clattering sound throughout the corridor. The crystals inside the walls vibrated continuously, and even the fake Jiang Luo, who had been dragged out of the array patterns, took two steps back.

Jiang Luo raised her small hand to shield herself, her gaze first sweeping over the marriage contract mark on the woman's chest, then looking at the fading shadow by the wall.

The fake Jiangluo is about to run away.

"Wait, are you sure you haven't mistaken me for someone else?"

"Admit your mistake?"

The woman pressed her hand to her chest, and the previously dim marriage contract mark lit up with a red light. Several black chains crawled out from the crystal shards and spelled out the words "the thief of the contract" at Jiang Luo's feet.

"Your origin is exactly the same as Jiang Juechen's, and the Blood Moon Mad Scythe also recognizes you as its master. What more excuses do you have?"

"Being of the same origin only proves that Lolo used his power, not that they are related by blood."

Jiang Luo held the sickle horizontally in front of him, and moved his black leather shoes back two paving stones, just avoiding the last word written on the chain.

"You waited a hundred years, and your brain got damaged by the crystal sealing it?"

"A marriage contract won't mistake someone else for someone else."

The white-haired woman raised her right hand, and dark red blood seeped out from the mark on her chest. The black chain taut and made a sharp grinding sound.

"Anyone who steals Jiang Juechen's essence and is not listed in the marriage register shall have their bones broken and their soul extracted."

As the verdict was read, the words "the thief of the contract" lit up simultaneously, and the first chain pierced through the floor, wrapping around Jiang Luo's left wrist.

"Hey, system, why does your marital history come with a 'hunting service'?"

Jiang Luo sidestepped the chains, and the sickle handle pressed down on the second chain, but his heel got tangled in the blood lines that burrowed from the ground, causing him to lose his balance on the spot.

The system responded after a moment.

[My soul's manifestation is currently blocked in this area; the host must resolve the marital dispute on their own.]

"Is this considered a dispute?"

Jiang Luo used the sickle handle to support himself on the ground, and flipped over to the other side along the chain. The spot where he was originally standing had been dragged out with a narrow crack.

"She's planning to tear Lolo apart!"

I have faith in the host's negotiation skills.

"Alright, concealing the marriage contract caused the host to be hunted down by an SSS-level monster. Lolo will remember this compensation."

【Is this how you use the power of rules?】

The white-haired woman didn't give her time to continue keeping accounts. She clenched her five fingers inward, and at the same time, black chains shot out from the wall, crossing and blocking the corridor and the doors on both sides.

As the fake Jiang Luo used the chains to leave the wall, his body blended into the darkness, leaving only his red eyes watching from afar.

Jiang Luo memorized her location, then raised his sword to block the chains that were pressing down on him, the scarlet patterns on the scythe blade gnawing forward along the bloodline of the marriage contract.

A hissing sound rang out along the blade.

The marriage contract mark on the chain was missing a section, and the blood thread binding Jiang Luo's heel also loosened.

The white-haired woman's third chain shifted half an inch off course, then wrapped around Jiang Luo's wrist as he gripped the knife.

"Blood Moon Mad Scythe".

"Do you recognize this sickle?"

"This is a weapon that Jiang Juechen brought out from the Calamity Blood Pool. No one but those he approves of can awaken the Bloodthirsty Feast."

The woman tightened her grip, intensifying the markings on the chains several times over. Jiang Luo's wrist was dragged towards the wall, and the sickle was also wedged between the chains.

"He even gave you this, and you still say you're not his daughter?"

"The Blood Moon Scythe was bought by Lolo!"

"He actually accepted money from his own daughter?"

"..."

Jiang Luo almost choked on her words.

This woman's thinking has gone so far as to be irreversible.

What's more troublesome is that the Blood Moon Scythe can only devour the marriage contract mark on the surface of the chain, but cannot destroy the chain itself that bears the judgment.

If this continues, she'll be the first to give out.

"System, are there any loopholes in her rules?"

[The marriage contract trial only deals with those who steal the contract; she herself is also restricted by the tomb guardian rules and cannot leave the primordial altar by thirty steps.]

"Is this intelligence report free?"

[A complimentary gift.]

"You've finally done something decent."

Jiang Luo used the sickle to swallow the second marriage contract mark, changed positions three times in a row, and scanned the white-haired woman's landing point from the floor tiles under his feet.

Thirty yuan.

No matter how fierce the attack, the white-haired woman never crossed the thirtieth floor tile.

"So you can't leave after all."

Jiang Luo kicked up a crystal shard, and the Blood Moon Scythe immediately slashed through it, sending dozens of sharp crystal chips hurtling toward the marriage contract mark on the woman's chest.

The white-haired woman turned the chains, blocking all the chips.

"You think you can fool me with that kind of trick?"

"Lolo wasn't lying to you."

Jiang Luo lowered her body and slipped through the gaps in the interlocking chains. Her gorgeous black skirt brushed against the ground, and a few strands of lace were severed by regular blood lines.

By the time the white-haired woman swung away the last chip, Jiang Luo had already rushed out of the thirtieth floor tile.

The chain reached the boundary but was stopped by a transparent barrier, its tip hanging outside Jiang Luo's neck, unable to advance even half an inch further.

"return!"

The white-haired woman tightened the chains, and a large amount of black blood seeped from the marriage contract mark on her chest due to the conflict with the rules.

"You mustn't touch that heart!"

"You continue to uphold the marriage contract, while Lolo goes to find the person who truly owes the debt."

Jiang Luo didn't rush to swing his sword; instead, he looked at the mural at the end of the corridor.

The black-robed man in the mural is placing a red heart into a crystal container, and there is a line of small characters covered by bloodstains carved on the side of the altar.

She scraped away the bloodstains with a sickle, and the writing gradually became visible.

The one who breaks the seal takes over from the tomb keeper and faces the judgment of the source of calamity.

"Inheritance trial?"

This is the trial you must complete to break through to SSS rank.

"What if it fails?"

[The origin was stripped away, and consciousness remained in the tomb, becoming the next crystal.]

"And if it succeeds?"

The root of all calamities lies with you.

Jiang Luo looked up at the center of the altar.

The heart was bound by layers of black chains, and with each beat, the marriage contract markings in the corridor would contract.

The white-haired woman is still pulling on the chains outside the border.

"Don't touch it. Jiang Juechen left it here to suppress anything in the tomb!"

"Including that imposter?"

The woman followed Jiang Luo's gaze to the wall, and her expression immediately changed.

The fake Jiang Luo is gone.

"No, she was just here."

"You only just realized that?"

Jiang Luo switched the Blood Moon Scythe to his right hand, avoided the inheritance array patterns directly in front of the altar, and walked half a circle along the side.

"She's been waiting for Lolo to break the seal for her."

"So you're still going to smash it?"

"Because what she wants, Lolo wants too."

Jiang Luo gripped the scythe handle with both hands, her petite body leaping over the black chains on the outside of the altar, her black leather shoes stepping onto the edge of the crystal.

"As for who ultimately gets it, that depends on whose rules are stricter!"

The Blood Moon Scythe slashed down.

A fissure appeared across the center of the crystal altar, and the black chains binding the heart emitted a piercing wail. At the same time, the crystal figure sleeping within the wall opened its eyes.

"stop!"

The white-haired woman crashed into the boundary of the tomb, and her shoulder was cut open by the transparent barrier.

"You have no idea who's sealed inside!"

Jiang Luo raised his sickle once more.

"All Luo Luo knows is that the 300,000 fear points can't be wasted."

The second cut landed on the same crack.

The heart inside the altar stopped beating.

The inheritance inscriptions within the crack lit up one by one, and the rule that the one who broke the seal would inherit the name of the calamity began to be executed. The Blood Moon Scythe was the first to be released and pulled into the altar.

The crystal beneath Jiang Luo's feet collapsed immediately afterward.

She gripped the edge of the altar, her fair fingers rapidly losing color as she absorbed the rules, while the white-haired woman behind her was blocked thirty paces away by the boundary of the tomb.

"Grab the chains!"

"Explain yourself first: why did Jiang Juechen seal you up here!"

"Because the person he wants to ban isn't me at all, it's..."

The second half of the sentence was drowned out by the roar emanating from the depths of the altar.

Jiang Luo could no longer hold onto the edge of the crystal and was dragged into the crack. Before her consciousness was severed, she saw a face exactly like hers pressed against the depths of darkness.

The fake Jiang Luo reached out and caught the falling Blood Moon Scythe.

"Thank you."

"You finally opened the last door for me."
