The people in the collapsing iron gave the immortal ship a small shock from the Holy Lord.

After all, compared to him, a statue trapped here, Bai Zhi, a powerful person who can move freely, is far more valuable.

"Do your brothers know you're talking like that...?"

Bai Zhi silently complained to herself.

However, among the eight demons, Shendu is indeed the most handsome, and Zhou Lan, who is ranked later, is also quite good-looking.

The remaining few, like Bo Gang, have rather abstract appearances.

334 Zhou Lan: I'm willing to support you.

"Holy Lord, you actually took the initiative to contact us. I thought you had forgotten your old brothers."

In a mirror, the demons stared in astonishment at the statue of the Holy Lord.

We're all demons, don't we all know our own ways?

Let alone the Holy Lord, even if they themselves were alone in the mortal world, they probably wouldn't think of contacting their brothers and sisters.

Wouldn't it be better to rule the world all by yourself?

The statue of the Holy Lord emitted a stream of air, clearly indicating his dissatisfaction with the demons' assessment of him.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I am contacting you today to introduce you to an important person."

The Holy Lord didn't want these guys to continue talking about his character, so he somewhat abruptly changed the subject.

"Oh? What kind of lackey have you taken in this time?"

"I remember that Valon you acquired last time. Didn't you say it was more trouble than it was worth?"

The water demon Basha spoke first, her tone filled with mockery.

“What do you know? You only need to stay in hell, unlike me, who has many more things to consider in this world.”

The Holy Lord said, clearly displeased.

"Stop with this nonsense, Holy Lord. You contacted us, surely not to chat and build rapport, right?"

Zhou Lan floated lightly into the mirror's image, her tone calm.

As the eldest of the eight demons, he is considered the strongest among them, and can control gravity, one of the four fundamental forces.

Even destroying the Earth wouldn't be a difficult task for him.

Therefore, the demons still held him in high regard.

"Hmph, for the sake of my elder brother, I won't hold it against you."

The Holy Lord snorted coldly, and then a shadowy soldier suddenly appeared beside Bai Zhi, gesturing for her to enter.

"It's finally my turn."

Bai Zhi took a deep breath; this was the time to test her acting skills.

After getting ready, she slowly walked to the mirror.

The demons were stunned when they saw Bai Zhi.

"Is this your daughter?"

Then they said in unison.

"Why is this the first thing these guys think of?"

Bai Zhi silently complained to herself, but she still maintained the self-discipline of an actress and did not show the slightest sign of losing her composure.

"No, he is him, and I am me!"

Bai Zhi crossed her arms and pretended to be somewhat dissatisfied with the Holy Lord.

"Oh, Holy Lord, even your daughter doesn't recognize you?"

Bo Gang's voice was quite loud, and he also made a series of laughs, which made the Holy Lord lose face.

"You enjoy your life in this world without ever thinking about your old brothers and sisters. This is probably your retribution."

Basha chimed in, and the two demons, Zhong Su and Xiao Feng, nodded in agreement.

"Ha, your daughter is much prettier than you. She'll definitely be my best friend."

Ximu leaned closer and said with a grin.

"Alright, enough with the nonsense, Holy Lord, what exactly happened?"

“We can sense that she possesses a fiery demonic aura comparable to yours, as well as pure dragon blood.”

"Without a doubt, she should be your daughter, and a primordial demon on par with us, but this attitude..."

The Holy Lord was somewhat embarrassed upon hearing this, but unfortunately, he was just a statue and couldn't move his head at all.

Therefore, he could only offer a dry explanation:

"Ahem, I never took care of her before. She grew up on her own, you know how it is..."

"Oh, I got it!"

The demons suddenly realized that they only cared about giving birth, but not about raising the children.

"Tsk, Holy Lord, you really are an irresponsible guy. Although we are demons and irresponsibility is in our nature, you actually do this to your own offspring. No wonder you haven't thought about saving us all these years."

The demons began to relentlessly criticize the Holy Lord.

After criticizing Bai Zhi for not being able to clearly see the terrifying temperature emanating from the Holy Lord, Zhou Lan asked Bai Zhi:

"Little guy, what's your name?"

Angelica dahurica.

“Nice name. This time, it must have been your suggestion that the Holy Lord contact us. We don’t believe this guy would take the initiative to contact us.”

What is your purpose?

Zhou Lan elegantly placed her hands together and asked Bai Zhi with great interest.

Demons are cunning and selfish; he didn't believe that Bai Zhi came to see them just to make herself known.

"Indeed, I have my own ideas. I met with you all just hoping that you could do me a small favor."

Bai Zhi didn't try to hide it; instead, she stated her purpose directly.

"If you want us to help you, it won't be that easy. As you can see, we've all been sealed in hell."

Zhou Lan pointed to the empty hell behind him, where there was nothing but some floating stones.

There is no top or bottom, no land, and not even humans.

Only demons, primordial demons, and all sorts of ferocious beasts—it's fortunate that these major demons themselves represent chaos and destruction; if they were ordinary people, they would have gone mad within a year.

"I think you might not mind... that many human souls appear in hell?"

"Ok?"

Zhou Lan paused for a moment, then showed an interested expression.

The other demons also pricked up their ears.

This godforsaken hell is utterly boring. Those lesser demons are just a bunch of things that only know how to destroy and kill, and they're not nearly as fun as humans.

"Little one, what you're saying is very interesting, please continue."

Zhou Lan's tone became slightly agitated.

"It's very simple. In the future, hell will become the dwelling place for the souls of evil people. You can punish them as you please until the time is up and they are reincarnated."

"You want Hell to function as part of the Underworld?"

"You could say the same thing."

Zhou Lan quickly realized what was going on, "Are you trying to repeat the methods that the gods failed with?"

“Little guy, this is not a good idea. Your power cannot cover such a consumption. Even if you are immortal like us and do not fear disappearing, your power is insufficient and the small world will still collapse.”

Zhou Lan said calmly, "Young man, it's good to have ideas, but I advise you not to do things that are destined to fail."

"You don't need to worry about that. Just tell me, do you want a large number of evil souls to come to hell?"

“Hmm…” Zhou Lan paused for a moment, “It seems you should know about the problem.”

"But you're so confident, you must have found some solutions."

"However, I still don't believe your so-called method can solve this problem. But as our junior and the only new primordial demon born so far, I am willing to support you."

335 Holy Lord: My daughter, you've gone a bit too far.

"Since you've agreed, I have a way."

“I support your ideas, but... to achieve this goal, you’ll probably have to connect Hell with other places first.”

Zhou Lan's eyes flickered, and she casually mentioned it.

Bai Zhi also noticed Zhou Lan's not-so-disguised change in expression.

Demons are not as adept at hiding their emotions as humans are; being naturally powerful, they never do it.

However, Bai Zhi was well aware of Zhou Lan's and the other demons' thoughts.

They just want to come out and act like tyrants.

Bai Zhi can understand this point quite well.

After all, no one would feel comfortable being locked up in this void of hell.

Even if, in reality, the demons could use the stones floating in hell and their own abilities to rebuild an entire continent.

But clearly, they are not good at creating, but good at destroying, so after all these years, hell is still the same.

However, Bai Zhi believed that once the souls of those wicked people went to hell, things would become much better there.

Anyway, the demons will enslave those guys to be their slaves, and human creativity will be perfectly unleashed there.

But before that, she needs to find a way to travel to hell.

And find the remaining seven demons, sign contracts with each of them, and make them stay in Hell obediently and stop thinking about causing trouble in the mortal world.

"I will go to hell to discuss this matter with you."

Upon hearing Bai Zhi's words, the eyes of many demons lit up.

If Bai Zhi is going to come to hell, can they go through that passage...?

We eagerly await your good news.

Sky Demon Ximu also joined in.

"Welcome! It's good for our demon family to get together."

Basha's tone softened, and even the gruff-voiced Thunder Demon Zhong Su raised his voice to say something kind to Bai Zhi.

That's hilarious.

They realized that compared to the Holy Lord, who was always in a sealed state, Bai Zhi, although she looked young, was much more reliable in her words and deeds.

"Little guy, if you feel you don't have enough power, we can give you some of our demonic energy."

Zhou Lan waved her hand, dispelling the demons, and stood in the center again, her gaze towards Bai Zhi carrying a hint of expectation.

"No need..."

Bai Zhi shook her head. While the demonic energy of the various demons was certainly a good thing, to be honest, it didn't significantly improve her abilities.

Moreover, who knows what will happen after absorbing so many kinds of demonic energy?

As you can see, after absorbing a lot of demonic energy, the little dragon grew uglier and uglier, transforming from a young man into a large green demon with tentacles and a beard—a villain at first glance.

"It's good that you're confident. In that case, I won't say anything more. As long as you can open a passage, we can agree to any conditions."

"Zhou Lan said in a deep voice."

"Well, just be prepared. It won't be long before I open the passage to hell."

After Bai Zhi finished speaking, she looked at the Holy Lord.

The Holy Lord quickly realized what was happening and coughed lightly, "In that case, let's go and get to work. See you later, brothers and sisters."
