Lu Kun was losing his life essence.

Mo Fan had already walked up to him. Lu Kun tried to limp away and escape.

Unfortunately, Mo Fan not only controlled a swamp of darkness, but an entire sea of it!

How could Lu Kun possibly walk out of the vast sea he had already lost his way in while trying to create his own kingdom?

He continued to leak out his life essence, which was absorbed by Mo Fan’s Essence Orb.

The Essence Orb was filtering out the filth in Lu Kun’s life essence. It was a pity that the Orb only served as a container. It could no longer store more life essence, as it had already reached its capacity.

But to Mo Fan’s surprise, Little Loach was finally willing to accept the energy after it was filtered. It began to absorb the life essence of the Red Demon after it was purified by the Essence Orb.

Little Loach’s color brightened. The Nether River inside it had expanded significantly, with no visible ending now.

“A little upgrade?” Mo Fan lowered his gaze and noticed the little Pendant now had a brighter sheen.

“It doesn’t seem like it… but it must have refined a high-quality Soul Essence.”

The Red Demon was still running away, getting weaker as it lost more of its life essence.

It went from limping to crawling on the ground. It was aging rapidly as it lost more of its life essence.

“You have reached your end,” Mo Fan informed it.

“I...I’m indestructible...” the Red Demon protested weakly.

“Some people will always be remembered. Their spirits were passed down over a thousand years and are forever lasting. As for you, you might be able to come back to life again, but you will always be trampled to death by those people!”

Mo Fan slammed his foot on the Red Demon’s back with a wide grin. “Besides, I can already trample you to pieces, when I’m not even one of those guys who have been worshiped for a thousand years!”

The Red Demon stopped struggling. Its life essence was rapidly drawn away, and refined into pure energy.

The Red Demon was about to perish. It could no longer run away this time!

If it was fighting against someone else, it could have split itself into wisps of red energy and fled for its life. Senior Hunter Leng had failed to kill it because it had so many ways to guarantee its escape.

However, Mo Fan had the Essence Orb, which was born from the same source as the Red Demon. The Essence Orb could easily devour the little clones the Red Demon split itself into, leaving it with no chance of escape!

“What difference is killing me going to make!?” the Red Demon shrieked.

“Nothing, I’m just happy about it,” Mo Fan replied lightly.

“You have no idea what you are doing, you are actually helping something that is a hundred times worse than me by killing me!” the Red Demon screamed.

“Oh, since you are going to die anyway, why don’t you tell me something useful before you are gone?” Mo Fan asked the lingering spirit of the Red Demon.

“Do you think I’m the first Red Demon? Do you think it’s all over?”

Mo Fan was surprised by the Red Demon’s words.

Kazuaki was supposed to be the first Red Demon. Mo Fan had already verified it with Mochizuki Ken.

However, it was impossible to figure out how many Red Demons had been formed between Kazuaki and Mo Fan’s harvesting this one.

Was Lu Kun not the first Red Demon? But he was clearly Kazuaki!

“Do you know who the client of your job is? Do you know why that job letter ended up in your hands?” Lu Kun laughed, but it was filled with despair instead of pleasure.

“Just say it if you want. I’ll find out the truth if you don’t. You don’t have much time left,” Mo Fan reminded him.

“HAHAHA, don’t you feel strange why Senior Hunter Leng’s job letter only reappeared after so many years, and happened to fall into your hands?” Lu Kun blurted out.

Mo Fan had long had the same question.

“Do you think I was the one who killed Senior Hunter Leng? It’s true that I took part in it, but I was just his little pet dog.

“It was he who taught me how to disguise myself as a human and how to expand my influence...

“Do you know the other Hunters who were invited here have their own jobs, too?

“All of you are doing him a favor! He’s going to become unprecedentedly stronger!

“Can’t you guess who he is now!?”

Lu Kun turned into a puff of smoke and dissipated in the air after finishing his last sentence.

Mo Fan felt like Lu Kun was behaving like he had joined a strange cult.

That being said, the client he had mentioned was definitely worth investigating!

—

After Lu Kun perished, the residents of the town instantly passed out.

The prisoners and guards also fell unconscious, worn out from overdrawing their energy. Only a deep slumber could maintain the minimum functions for living.

The release of negative emotions was a subconscious means of self-protection. When someone was worn out by fatigue, they would grumble first before adjusting their schedule to get some rest.

The residents of the town had been unable to rest ever since their minds were controlled. It was a form of psychological torture. They would all eventually reach their limits.

Lu Kun was obviously not doing them a favor by motivating them to work diligently. He was merely extracting their life energy. Even machines would overheat after excessive work, let alone humans!

—

Mo Fan stayed behind and waited for the Magic Association to send someone over to clean up the mess.

It was not going to be an easy task, but it was the Magic Association’s responsibility anyway. It was none of Mo Fan’s concern.

“Lingling, you may rest in peace now... I mean, your father can rest in peace now, and you can finally let it go,” Mo Fan patted Lingling’s head.

Lingling’s new hairstyle was already an indication that she had grown up. It was time for her to let go of something that she should have done a long time ago.

“That thing wasn’t the first Red Demon,” Lingling declared.

“I know, but you don’t have to take its words seriously,” Mo Fan told her.

“Mm, but it did reveal some important information to us!” Lingling seemed perfectly calm.

“What did you learn?” Mo Fan asked her.

“My father put up the job a long time ago, but it only fell into our hands right now. The only explanation is that the first Red Demon killed my father and took away his memories.

“The first Red Demon went to the Hunter Union disguised as my father to retrieve the job letter that would cause it a lot of trouble.”

Mo Fan felt a shiver running down his spine after hearing Lingling’s analysis.

The Red Demon could indeed take away a person’s memories. If it had killed Senior Hunter Leng, it would surely know about the job letter!

It explained why the job letter had only fallen into his hands after so many years.

Mo Fan was roughly convinced that Lu Kun was only a clone of the first Red Demon, or another Red Demon that was born later.

“I think the client of this job is the first Red Demon, Kazuaki.. After all, he was the only being that had access to my father’s letter,” Lingling said firmly.
