Moreover, in smaller dimensional planes like theirs, if there are too many beings exceeding the sixth rank, it will arouse the resentment of the upper realm, which will often find a reason or excuse to reduce their numbers. This is why the current sub-hell planes are in such a terrible state, and it is also why Seraph and another demon king are stuck at the fifth rank, level nine and can no longer advance to the next level.

But this doesn't mean they don't want to climb higher; they just lack the means. And now Lin Qi claims he has a way to bypass the God's interference and become a candidate for the God! This is practically a chance to rise to the top in one step!

If Lynch had brought up the importance of this opportunity in a deal with Seraph earlier, he might not have needed to go through so much trouble; Seraph would have simply given in!

While Seraphia was shocked, Gurefia was equally stunned and speechless.

She understood Sazex's strength and mentality better than anyone else. The reason Sazex refused to become an Apostle and instead became an ordinary sixth-order guard in a minor plane was to seek what Lynch meant. Sazex had his ambitions; he was unwilling to be subservient to the people and become a high-level cannon fodder! He also wanted to ascend to the top few thrones!

What Lin Qi is now presenting to Gurefia is the opportunity to ascend to these thrones! How could this not shock the two of them!

"What do you want?! Even if you want the entire Lesser Hell plane, that's negotiable!"

Seraphim's eyes blazed with a fierce fire—the fire of ambition. For a moment, she forgot all her plans, excitedly pressing Lin Qi for an answer! On the other side, Gurefia stared at Lin Qi with equal fervor, desperately seeking an answer from him! Both of them felt as if the cup of demonic blood wine they had just drunk had instantly gone to their heads, their minds were in disarray, and their blood was boiling! Their hearts raced!

While Grefia herself doesn't need the opportunity Lynch mentioned, Sazex does! If Sazex truly seizes this opportunity, the entire sub-hell plane will soar to new heights!

“This Demon Blood Wine is quite good. I heard that the Gremory family has a private hot spring bath. I’m a bit tired. I wonder if I could borrow it for a while? We can bathe, drink, and chat at the same time.”

Lin Qi swirled the red wine in his hand, ignoring Seraphim and Gurefia's excitement. Instead, he casually made a request to Gurefia: Lin Qi had always wanted to try the mixed-gender open-air hot spring at the Gremory family's place! Now that he had all the necessary people and the opportunity had arrived, it would be a shame not to give it a try! 

"plz follow me."

Gurefia hesitated for only a moment before agreeing. Although the hot spring was not usually open to the public, compared to the opportunity to become a candidate for the main god, a hot spring was nothing!

At this moment, Gurefia was completely unaware that she had inexplicably believed Lin Qi's words without question. Normally, she would have definitely doubted the truthfulness of what Lin Qi said, since no one should use becoming a candidate for the main god as a bargaining chip.

The reason why Gurefia did not suspect anything was simple: when Lin Qi revealed his bargaining chips, he used the divine skill of the God of Deception on Gurefia, a true lie, to force Gurefia to believe that he had the means and opportunity to become a candidate for the main god!

"I've heard that Lord Lucifer's strength has surpassed the sixth rank for a long time, but he has been unable to advance any further. After refusing to become an apostle who was a candidate for the main god, he was firmly blocked by the apostles and main god candidates above him and was banished to this secondary hell plane to guard the plane. I wonder if this is true?"

Just as Gurefia brought Lin Qi to the hot spring bath, Lin Qi seemed to remember something unintentionally. With an innocent smile, he asked Gurefia a question and, without waiting for her answer, went into the bath's changing room first.

Lin Qi's words elicited a complex expression from Gurefia!

No one understood Sazex's situation better than Grefia. Although Sazex seemed to be enjoying great success in this secondary hell plane, in reality, just as Lynch said, he was more like a general exiled to the frontier, on the front lines of battle, being used as high-level cannon fodder by the hell plane. Moreover, even if he made contributions, it would have nothing to do with Sazex. The seven candidates for the main god of hell would not allow someone who rejected them to go too far!

This complex emotion caused Gurefia to show a confused expression, and she began to seriously consider how she should secure this deal with Lynch.

At that moment, something shocking happened to Gurefia!

"Lord Leviathan, you..."

Seraph had already removed all her clothes, wearing only a bath towel as she passed by, carrying a jug of demon blood wine as she headed towards the hot spring. Clearly, she intended to bathe with Lin Qi. It was obvious that Seraph was after Lin Qi's deal! And one of her bargaining chips was herself!

Glefia and Seraph once competed for the title of the strongest female demon in the lesser hell plane, and Glefia ultimately lost. She knew very well Seraph's pride and dignity, but she never expected that she would choose to trade in this way! This was simply unbelievable to Glefia!

"This is an opportunity to become a candidate for the Supreme God. It's an opportunity that neither I nor Sazex can give up, even if there's only a sliver of hope! Just like I said before, as long as the bargaining chips are enough, there's nothing that can't be traded. Now Lynch has enough bargaining chips, but I don't seem to have enough. For this opportunity, there's nothing I wouldn't give up. I believe Sazex would make the same decision as me."

P.S.: I was about to go to sleep, but I got so caught up in chatting with the weirdos in the group that I got up to masturbate and write another chapter. My kidneys... February 24th, Friday, 12:30 AM... It's not easy being an author who writes pure books like ours. It's so easy to overwork yourself. It's Saturday and Sunday again, perfect for a fast-paced writing session.

Chapter 233 286

The purer the bloodline of a demon race, the more unrestrained they become. Their blood is filled with purer desires and instincts, which is why they are stronger than humans. This is especially true for female demons; otherwise, there wouldn't be special demon races like succubi. Grefia happens to be a pure-blooded offspring of the oldest demon family, with the purest demon blood flowing through her veins.

However, as Sazex's wife, Grefia has always been principled and has never overstepped any boundaries. Compared to other demons, she is more conservative in certain aspects.

Therefore, when Grefia saw Seraph wrapped in a bath towel and carrying the Demon Blood Wine toward the bathhouse where Lynch was, she was immediately shocked. Her intuition told Grefia that Seraph was going to do something that she would find hard to accept!

 "This is an opportunity to become a candidate for the main god. For me, for Sazex, and for the other two demon lords, it is an opportunity that we cannot give up, even if there is only a sliver of hope! Just like I said before, as long as the bargaining chips are enough, there is nothing that cannot be traded. Now Lynch has enough bargaining chips, but the chips in my hand seem insufficient. For this opportunity, there is nothing that cannot be sacrificed, including myself. I believe that if Sazex were here, he would make the same decision as me."

"I understand!"

However, Seraph's face showed no shame or hesitation, but rather a resolute and determined expression. She then raised a large cup of demon blood wine and presented it to Grefia.

Seraph's explanation left Gurefia silent for a long time before she finally nodded, gritted her teeth, took the glass Seraph handed her, tilted her head back and drank it all in one gulp. A flush of alcohol appeared on her face as she walked towards the locker room as if she had made up her mind.

Seraph's words just now gave Grefia a hint: Seraph wasn't the only one who needed the opportunity to become a god. Sazex needed this opportunity even more than Seraph. After all, Sazex had been blacklisted and relegated to the ranks of high-level cannon fodder because he had refused the seven rulers of the Hell Prime Plane, and it was almost impossible for him to advance any further.

Now, an opportunity for Sazex to break through has been presented to Grefia. However, Lynch has made it clear that he does not want to continue trading with the sub-hell plane, which means that Sazex has lost the possibility of obtaining this opportunity to become a god through trading with Lynch.

To obtain this opportunity, the only option is to use oneself as a bargaining chip, as Lynch had previously hinted. Seraph has clearly made her decision to use herself to facilitate this deal.

Gréfia and Sazex's relationship was built through real battles, and the two were even willing to give everything for each other. Gréfia knew very well that Sazex's desire to take things further had never diminished, but he just hadn't had the chance. When Gréfia accepted Seraph's glass of wine, it meant that she had actually made a decision, the same decision as Seraph!

A moment later, Glefia appeared at the entrance of the bathhouse, wearing a towel wrapped in a towel, with the bright red color of ripe apples and holding a magical fruit unique to the Demon Realm.

The blush on Glefia's face wasn't entirely due to shyness; a large part of it was also caused by the magic blood wine and the magic fruit.

Although Demon Blood Wine looks like red wine and doesn't seem very strong at first, it actually has a very powerful aftereffect. Gurefia is not good at drinking alcohol, and after drinking two cups of Demon Blood Wine, the aftereffect started to take effect. She felt a little dizzy, and her flushed face was just a sign that she was getting tipsy.

The Magic Fruit is even more magical. It is a favorite fruit of many young and reckless demons. This fruit has the effects of hallucinogenic, stimulating, and stimulating primal instincts. The aroma of a ripe Magic Fruit has the same effect. At this moment, the fragrance of the Magic Fruit is constantly wafting into Grayfia's nostrils!

Under the combined effects of the Demon Blood Wine and the Magic Fruit, coupled with Seraphim's example and subtle suggestions, Grayfia's body temperature was rising rapidly, and her consciousness was becoming slightly blurred. At this moment, her clearest will was to help her husband, Sazex, obtain that opportunity to become a god! Just like Seraphim, she would use herself as one of the bargaining chips in the deal!

With this determination, Gurefia resolutely carried the Magic Fruit into the bathhouse where Lynch and Seraphim were. The next moment, Gurefia immediately saw a scene that made her heart tremble!

Rewind to a minute earlier, when Seraphal gave Gurefia a glass of wine and turned to enter the bathhouse.

"Do you really have a way to become a candidate for the Supreme God without attracting the Supreme God's attention?"

Seraphine readily wrapped herself in a towel and soaked in the hot spring, while Lynch had already spread her arms and leaned comfortably against the slightly sloping edge of the bath. Seraphine, with a strange expression, directly opened her mouth to smell Lynch.

"I have one good point: I never lie to anyone."

With a faint smile, Lynch did not answer Seraph's question directly. Instead, he praised himself to Seraph and then waved to her. When he said this, Lynch had no idea that he was the God of Deception!

“I have done everything you asked me to do, but I don’t think the method you used on Grefia is effective. The Demon Blood Wine is not as effective as any of the potions that the witch had before.”

However, after a moment of silence, Seraph took a deep breath, took out three glasses, poured half a glass of wine into each one, and then walked up to Lynch with two of them. Sometime during the night, her underwater towel had disappeared. After handing a glass of wine to Lynch, Seraph reached out with her free hand, grasped Lynch's blade, and said softly.

"You underestimate love. As a single person, you can't understand the greatness of love, especially for women who are madly in love."

P.S.: Sorry for keeping you all waiting. The author didn't abandon the project; it was just temporarily suspended. Last Friday, old issues were brought up, surveillance footage was reviewed, and the author was caught red-handed. Previous chapters were reviewed and revised, but weren't properly revised, so updates were impossible. The review process was repeated, passing and then being rejected again, so updates were suspended until today. I'm so tired. I'll also explain why the story was rejected: it's because I wrote about "fatherly love as a mountain." This topic is now taboo. To be able to get back on track, I've made huge sacrifices. The daisy has become a sunflower. I just want to ask, if I were a DJ—oops, I mean, if I were a sunflower—would you still love me?

Chapter 234 287

The words "you don't understand" immediately made Seraph's men pause. After a moment of silence, Seraph revealed a tenderness and said softly, "I think I understand."

"I almost forgot, you're actually a siscon."

Lynch raised an eyebrow, finally snapping out of his reverie. Seraph was the kind of person who would give anything to get Cangna. If it weren't for getting Cangna, Lynch wouldn't have succeeded so easily. So, strictly speaking, Seraph did have someone she deeply loved, but that person was her sister. Her love, though perhaps somewhat twisted, was actually much deeper, involving more sacrifice and devotion. Therefore, Seraph could actually understand the feeling of giving and sacrificing for love.

Even so, she still didn't believe that Grefia would sacrifice herself to give Sazex an opportunity, after all, Grefia was known for her extreme loyalty to Sazex.

Just as Seraph fell silent, Lynch pulled her over and made her slump onto him. With the help of the warm spring water, Seraph exclaimed and quickly got into the mood. The effects of the Demon Blood Wine also took hold on her. Seraph subconsciously wrapped her arms around Lynch's neck and involuntarily began to use the riding technique.

The loud splashing of water, along with the sounds and images of Seraphim moaning as she wrapped her arms around Lynch's neck, was the scene that Glefia saw as soon as she entered the bathhouse. However, due to the temperature of the hot spring, the surroundings were filled with thick steam, and only hazy shadows were reflected in Glefia's vision. But it was this hazy scene that made Glefia's heart feel as if a string had been touched!

However, suddenly, as if her inner morality had been awakened, Gurefia's expression changed slightly, and she turned to leave the bathhouse. But at the crucial moment, the conversation between Lynch and Seraph made Gurefia stop in her tracks.

"You said the chance to become a god... um, what exactly is it all about?"

Seraph's voice was somewhat halting, and her tone changed with the rise and fall of her riding skills, but the meaning she wanted to express was still clearly conveyed to Grefia and Lynch's ears.

Lynch's hands were constantly moving underwater, and could be vaguely seen moving back and forth and attacking Seraph's various sensitive points, helping Seraph get into the zone more quickly. At the same time, Lynch was also answering Seraph's questions.

"Since you've performed so well, I'll tell you some information first. I have an item that allows a pure-blooded demon to shield itself from the perception of a God candidate until it surpasses the God candidate level. However, it has two limitations. First, it only works on God candidates and those below them. If the God discovers it, it will still be discovered. Second, if you're not well-prepared and break through to the God candidate level carelessly, you'll be torn to shreds by the enraged God candidate."

"But if it is handled properly, I believe the chances of success are still very high. Of course, if you cannot overcome these two difficulties, I can only say that you are not qualified to be a candidate for the Lord God."

"It's a pity I'm not a pure-blooded demon, otherwise I would definitely keep it for myself. If you want it, you can have a chance, but you have to advance to the sixth rank first. This item is only effective on pure-blooded demons at the sixth rank."

Lynch's explanation surprised Seraph and Gurefia, and their eyes lit up with excitement as they finished speaking!

Gurefia had some doubts before about whether Lynch really had the chance to become a god, and if so, why he didn't use it himself.

Lin Qi's answer enlightened Gurefia. It turned out that Lin Qi, as a human, couldn't use this opportunity himself, so he used it as a bargaining chip! In addition, Lin Qi clearly explained the two limitations of the opportunity to become a god, which made Gurefia even more convinced that Lin Qi really had such an item!

Seraphim's gaze at Lynch intensified, and she continued to ask, "Rank is not the issue. What will it take for you to give it to me?"

"That depends on you, not me. This thing is useless to me, but I believe any pure-blooded demon would go mad for it if I took it out."

Lin Qi smiled, a teasing smile on his face, and found a more comfortable position to lean back, putting his hands behind his head and closing his eyes. Seraph rode him even more vigorously, splashing water all over the hot spring!

"I don't know if I'll ever have a chance to get it."

Just then, Grefia's voice suddenly appeared behind Lynch and Seraph. After hearing that the opportunity in Lynch's hand was an item, Grefia had already quietly entered the hot spring. At this moment, a tray was floating in front of her, and on the tray were three cut magic fruits. The sweet aroma spread throughout the air of the hot spring with the steam.

"I like things that are valuable to have competition. Only through comparison can we see the good and the bad. I've been quite active lately, and my shoulders are a bit sore."

Lin Qi glanced at Gurefia, and his smile widened. He nodded at her, cracked his neck, and said in a seemingly casual tone.

“On behalf of the Gremory and Lucifer families, I wish to facilitate this deal with you.”

Lynch's meaning was quite clear. Gurefia glanced at Seraph, who was ignoring her and continuing to ride him, and her face turned even redder. However, she still went around behind Lynch and began to massage his shoulders. But she didn't make any excessive physical contact with Lynch, only massaging his shoulders. She didn't even remove her towel. However, her heart was starting to feel a little hot as Lynch and Seraph were engaged in their activities.

After taking a deep breath, Gurefia began to express her intentions. So far, Gurefia still intended to use the name and interests of her family as bargaining chips.

“I don’t know you well. Based on your current performance, I’m more willing to make this deal with Seraph, since we know each other better.”

As soon as Gurefia spoke, Lin Qi revealed a cold smile and aggressively pinched the soft flesh in front of Seraph, making Seraph's reaction even more intense. At the same time, Gurefia's expression turned much uglier.

P.S.: My car hasn't reached its destination yet. I will continue driving on this long journey. Even if I am the only one left on the road ahead, I will continue to silently guard this rugged mountain road of Mount Akina. It is a kind of faith.

Chapter 235 288

 Lin Qi's cold laugh sent a chill down Gurefia's spine. Gurefia realized that Lin Qi had already obtained what he wanted in the previous two transactions. What remained was not that important to Lin Qi. Moreover, Lin Qi's intentions were now very clear: if you wanted to negotiate, you had to have the qualifications to negotiate, and to obtain the qualifications, you had to do what Seraph did and trade your body!

"I've heard that the Great Demon King Sazex was one of the strongest beings in this plane many years ago, but over the years, his strength doesn't seem to have improved much. However, I can help him take another step forward. I wonder if Sazex is willing to make some sacrifices for this opportunity to advance further."

Just as Gurefia felt disheartened by Lynch's unwavering rejection, Lynch continued to speak with a hint of sarcasm. At the same time, the hand that had been moving on Seraph's body reached behind her and flipped over to Gurefia's buttocks, squeezing them hard. The amazing resilience and delicate feel of the hand returned to her!

Lin Qi's action instantly shocked Gurefia, her body stiffened, and she subconsciously wanted to retaliate and kill Lin Qi, who was only at the fifth level. However, her magic power had just gathered when she suddenly stopped. Lin Qi's next words hit her heart's weak spot!

"If I die, this item bound to my soul will disappear. Any pure evil demon who obtains this item can increase its strength at will without having to do anything. With the abilities of the Great Demon King Sazex, I believe he has a higher chance of becoming a new candidate for the main god than anyone else."
