The Great Demon Lord of the American Comics World

"Ancient Golden Elixir..."

Inside the dark room, Li Xingzhou, who was refining the power of the Great Serpent God, was radiating a shimmering light. His skin was as if it were made of crystal, exuding an ethereal, pure, and flawless aura.

After a long while, the radiance around him subsided, and he returned to his original appearance. He slowly opened his eyes and sighed softly, "I'm still lacking in skill."

The ancient method of making golden elixir truly lives up to its reputation as the supreme way of "swallowing a single golden elixir and taking control of one's destiny, not the will of heaven."

Li Xingzhou first devoured Bane, and now he has refined the power of the Great Serpent God. In addition, he has been nourished by hundreds of thousands of Chitauri and more than 200,000 Abyss Demons. However, he is still a little short of being able to complete the pill.

"However, his various supernatural abilities have greatly improved..."

With a thought, a cracking sound rang out from his body, four arms emerged from his ribs, and two more heads appeared on his shoulders and neck.

After refining the power of the giant serpent, he had fully mastered the supernatural ability of "three heads and six arms".

With each additional arm, strength increases by 50%. With each additional head, magical power also increases by 50%.

A flash of light appeared on Li Xingzhou's body as he vanished into the void, appearing in the sky above Tokyo Bay in the next instant.

"As big or small as you wish!"

With a thought, Li Xingzhou's body expanded rapidly, transforming into a giant a hundred meters tall in the blink of an eye. His feet sank into the seabed of Tokyo Bay, where the shallow water, more than ten meters deep, did not even submerge his knees.

The giant lifted his foot and stepped onto the sea in front of him.

With a deafening roar, a wall of waves tens of meters high surged up from the sea, crashing onto the land of Tokyo Bay and utterly destroying everything in its path.

The waves surged for several kilometers into Tokyo before finally subsiding, carrying back countless ruins and zombies crushed into mincemeat by the giant waves as they retreated into the sea.

“Ever-changing!”

The giant suddenly shrank and transformed into a magnificent eagle.

The supernatural power of transformation allows one to change into any form at will, regardless of whether it be a living being, an inanimate object, or even an energy state.

As long as the shape is known, it can be changed at will.

Of course, if you want to transform into a giant beast, you must first master the skill of "size control," otherwise "thousand transformations" will only transform you into a living creature or an inanimate object of similar size.

Li Xingzhou's cultivation of "Size as You Wish" has greatly improved, and he has already met the conditions for transforming into a giant beast or a tiny creature.

The eagle spread its wings and soared, then suddenly swooped down towards the sea. Just before it touched the water, its body expanded and transformed into a blue whale, crashing into the sea.

The blue whale shook its head and tail, cutting through the waves, and suddenly leaped out of the sea, transforming into a giant roc with a wingspan of hundreds of meters.

Li Xingzhou had seen and eaten countless strange beasts in the cultivation world, so in addition to real-world creatures, he could freely transform into any strange beast in the cultivation world that he knew.

The roc spread its wings and soared straight into the sky, instantly flying out of the atmosphere.

With a casual wing sweep, Li Xingzhou knocked down a few satellites, then swooped down towards the ground, returning to the skies above New York.

New York in this world has naturally become a zombie capital.

The roc circled over New York for a while, then transformed into a magnificent vermilion bird. With a flap of its wings, it unleashed a raging inferno, plunging the entire city of New York into a sea of ​​fire in the blink of an eye.

The Vermilion Bird danced gracefully amidst the towering sea of ​​fire for a while before flying off to the coast of New York.

During the flight, the magnificent Vermilion Bird transformed into a tiny petrel.

The petrel skimmed along the sea for a moment, then plunged headfirst into the water.

Then the sea suddenly split open, and amidst the surging waves, a colossal beast rose from the sea.

Yes, Li Xingzhou has turned into Godzilla.

Although he lacks atomic organs, he can still unleash powerful breath attacks using magic.

The colossal Godzilla opened its massive maw and unleashed a blazing beam of light, forged from the sun's true fire, blasting it thousands of meters away. Wherever the beam passed, the sea instantly vaporized, leaving a deep, straight crater.

After spewing a beam of true fire, Godzilla then spewed out a beam of frost-white light, freezing the sea surface wherever it passed, instantly forming a narrow ice bridge several meters thick, more than ten meters wide, and several thousand meters long.

After the Frost Breath, there are various other breaths such as Storm, Thunder, and Sound Wave, and even a Mind Breath that can destroy the soul without harming the physical body.

These numerous tricks are even more elaborate than those of the real boss.

After practicing various breathing techniques, Li Xingzhou, disguised as a taxi driver, plunged into the sea. His body quickly grew longer and thinner, transforming into an oriental dragon over two hundred meters long.

The Eastern Dragon sometimes swims underwater, sometimes leaps out of the water, riding the clouds and mist. Wherever it goes, thunder and lightning follow, and wind and rain accompany it, just like a real dragon that holds the power of wind, rain, thunder and lightning.

Finally, Li Xingzhou transformed into Megatron, his body shifting again to become a space shuttle, soaring into outer space and returning to Tokyo—"Ever-Changing" can transform into almost anything, whether it's silicon-based life forms or hypersonic missiles, Li Xingzhou can transform at will.

Back above Elysium, the space shuttle transformed into a drizzle, landing on the rooftop balcony of the Great Castle, before coalescing back into human form.

After thoroughly practicing his various supernatural powers, Li Xingzhou was overjoyed. He entered the room and saw Wu Yacha and Garuda sleeping naked, their legs intertwined. Without any hesitation, he went over, laid the drowsy Wu Yacha flat on his back, and placed Garuda face down on top of Wu Yacha, thus beginning his celebratory exercise.

Li Xingzhou had so much fun that Wu Yacha and Garuda overslept the next day, not getting up until dawn. They quickly washed up, skipped breakfast, and went to the Little Castle to instruct the girls on their cultivation.

At noon, after having lunch with the mother and daughter, Li Xingzhou took out the Orochi Blood Crystals of Yashiro and Shermie and let them choose.

"what is this?"

Garuda looked at the two bean-sized, blood-red crystals in Li Xingzhou's hand and asked curiously.

"The crystallization of the 'god race' bloodline on this planet."

Li Xingzhou said with a smile:
"These two bloodline crystals each represent a different power: the power of earth and the power of thunder. Consuming them will grant you one of these powers. Which one do you wish to choose?"

Trying to absorb the bloodline of the Orochi clan was essentially gambling with one's life. Under normal circumstances, ordinary people not only cannot control the divine power of the Orochi clan, but may also go insane or explode.

However, since Li Xingzhou had already refined the power of the Great Serpent God, he naturally had absolute control over the bloodline of the Great Serpent clan, and could ensure that Wu Yacha and Garuda could safely refine the bloodline and obtain power.

"I choose the power of thunder!" Garuda raised his hand and said, the power of thunder sounded much cooler than the power of earth.

Wu Yacha naturally wouldn't compete with his daughter, and smiled, "Then I'll choose the power of the earth."

“Alright.” Li Xingzhou nodded and said to Wu Yacha and Garuda, “Sit down, I will help you refine it.”

After the mother and daughter sat cross-legged in front of him, Li Xingzhou flicked his finger, and the blood crystals of Yashiro and Shermie turned into two drops of blood that faintly shimmered with a pale golden light, each falling onto the forehead of the mother and daughter and seeping into them.

Then, a glint flashed in Li Xingzhou's eyes, and his powerful divine sense enveloped Wu Yacha and Garuda, using his absolute control over the serpent's bloodline to help them refine it.

……

Sizzle!

Amidst the whistling sound of electricity piercing the air, Garuda transformed into a streak of bright lightning, instantly darting from one end of the courtyard to the other, his speed almost like teleportation.

Upon landing, she clenched her right fist, lightning flashing between her fingers and palm. With a slam, a massive ball of lightning erupted from her fist, blasting a human target into dust.

"Not bad!"

Under the eaves of the courtyard, Li Xingzhou clapped with a smile, "You've mastered the power of the Wild Lightning very well."

Garuda chuckled, a flash of lightning on her body, and she teleported to Li Xingzhou's side, jumped onto him, wrapped her legs around his waist, hugged his neck, and gave him a big kiss. "Thank you, my husband, for granting me the power of lightning."

Li Xingzhou cupped her plump buttocks in his hands and smiled:
"The power of wild lightning can coexist with the cultivation of Qi and Blood Martial Arts, and even complement each other. In the future, you will not only be able to carry the power of lightning in every move, but you can also use the power of lightning to stimulate your muscles, bones and acupoints, and assist in the cultivation of Qi and Blood Martial Arts."

"Yeah, I understand."

Garuda nodded vigorously, then looked at Wu Yacha beside him, "Kachan, how about a match?"

"You think you can control lightning and want to provoke your mother?" Wu Yacha smiled slightly. "Doesn't little Garuda know that the 'earth' can support all things?"

"Anyone can brag," Garuda retorted without backing down. "We'll only know who's better after we've had a match."

"Oh dear, little Garuda is getting a bit arrogant!" Wu Yacha chuckled and walked into the courtyard. "Then let's have a contest. Mom will tell you that no matter what power you master, Mom will always be your mom."

"Then I'm going to tell you that from today onwards, the situation has reversed, and I'm going to take control!"

Garuda chuckled, jumped off Li Xingzhou, and with a flash of lightning, instantly teleported behind Wu Yacha. He grabbed Wu Yacha's shoulders with his claws, and at the same time, fine electric light flickered from his hands, spreading to Wu Yacha's shoulders.

Garuda thought that this move would surely paralyze his mother and render her unable to move. However, the lightning bolts that leaped from her hands were all channeled into the ground beneath her feet by Wu Yacha, and her body was not affected in the slightest.

"Garuda, is this your thunder power? Mom can't feel it at all!"

As Wu Yacha spoke with a smile, a burst of shock force suddenly erupted from her body, instantly shaking off Garuda's hands that were gripping her shoulder joints.

Then, with a seemingly slow but actually swift turn, she faced Garuda head-on, raised her knee, and struck Garuda squarely in the lower abdomen.

Garuda grunted, his body crackling with electricity, trying to use his speed to create distance between himself and Wu Yacha.

But before she could disappear, Wu Yacha's hand passed through the lightning on her body and grabbed her shoulder. The immense force penetrated her bones, causing half of Garuda's body to become numb and powerless, leaving her rooted to the spot and unable to move.

"The rebellion failed!"

Wu Yaksha smiled with narrowed eyes, then pressed another claw onto Garuda's face, slamming her small face hard against the ground.

Bang!
With a dull thud, Wu Yacha knelt on one knee, pressed his palm tightly against Garuda's cheek, and slammed her head heavily onto the ground, creating a crater where half of Garuda's head was buried in the mud.

Seeing this, Li Xingzhou couldn't help but raise an eyebrow and say:

"Is it really that brutal?"

Wu Yacha smiled sweetly, stood up and said:

"Garuda is very tough. She has trained her head so much that she can easily smash through a stone slab more than an inch thick. Muddy ground can't hurt her."

Even so, Garuda was still dazed from the impact and lay on the ground for a long time before getting up.

But she wasn't convinced. While brushing the dirt off her hair, she pouted and said:
"Kachan, you've gone too far! I clearly held back against you, I didn't even use my Lightning Fist on you in the first move, yet you attacked me so fiercely..."

Wu Yacha smiled and said:

"But the Thunder Fist won't work on me either. The earth can support all things, and that's not just something Mommy brags about. With Mommy's mastery of the earth's power, even if you unleash the Thunder Fist, Mommy can channel all the thunder's power into the ground."

Li Xingzhou also said:
“Yaksha is right. Garuda, if you want to hurt Yaksha with the power of thunder, you have to find a way to make her feet off the ground. As long as her feet are still on the ground, your thunder power will not be able to hurt her at all. Therefore, when she is standing on the ground, it is more effective to attack her with your fists and feet than to attack with thunder.”

Garuda then realized that the power of the earth had such a wonderful use, and for a moment he couldn't help but feel a little frustrated, "Did I make the wrong choice?"

Li Xingzhou laughed and said, "It's not exactly a bad choice. The Yaksha's earth power excels in endurance and strength. Your lightning power excels in agility and explosiveness. You each have your strengths. Besides, with your personality, you are more suited to lightning power. However, you will indeed be restrained by the Yaksha. But that's alright, isn't it? After all, your mother will always be your mother."

These words of comfort cheered Garuda up, and he said with a grin:
“I feel that if the power of lightning is developed further, it may even be possible to fly between heaven and earth like lightning in the future. This is something that my mother may never be able to do. After all, she has to stand firmly on the ground in order to unleash her strongest power.”

Li Xingzhou nodded and said:
"You're not wrong about that."

He paused, then said:
"Cultivate diligently these next few days, and I'll take you somewhere in a few days."

Garuda asked, "Where?"

Li Xingzhou gently flicked her nose, "It'll be a secret for now, you'll find out later."

"Oh." Garuda didn't press for details, and chuckled as he hugged Li Xingzhou, "Since I mastered the power of lightning so quickly, shouldn't I get some reward?"

"What reward do you want?"

Garuda whispered in Li Xingzhou's ear, its breath sweet as orchids:

"When you summon the girl tonight, I want you to..."

……

night.

Jabami Yumeko followed Ishii Oren into the Great Castle Keep. Her straight black hair fell to her hips, and she walked with light steps, her back straight, her shoulders steady, her demeanor dignified like that of a lady from a noble family.

She was wearing a pure white yukata kimono with flowing ink-wash prints resembling cursive calligraphy. Of course, she wasn't wearing anything underneath the yukata, and her body was as clean and smooth as a baby's, except for a pair of white tabi socks on her feet.

She was already mentally prepared for what she would face next.

She had no intention of resisting, but even when facing the Great Demon King, she wasn't prepared to give herself away so easily.

We have to take a gamble with him no matter what.

As for what to bet on...

Let's just bet on the simplest thing: drawing cards and comparing their values.

For this reason, she even carried an unopened deck of cards with her.

"When it comes to fighting, I'm certainly no match for the Great Demon King. But when it comes to gambling, the Great Demon King is no match for me either!"

Jabami Yumeko was full of confidence. Thinking of the Great Demon King, she couldn't help but recall the day she encountered him.

At that time, she and her friends, Saotome Meari and Suzui Ryota, were so hungry that they left their hiding place to find food. Unexpectedly, Meari accidentally fell and scraped her arm, causing it to bleed.

That little bit of blood immediately attracted zombies, and a horde of hundreds of them at that.

"I'm sorry, Yumeko, it's all my fault..."

Yari apologized with tears in her eyes, trembling with fear.

Yumeko Jabami remembers that she was actually scared and desperate at the time, and she also had a little resentment towards Aya.

But she ultimately faced it all calmly. She held Yari in her arms, gently comforting her as she took out the small knife she always carried, pressed the blade against Yari's neck, and softly said:
"Shall I give you a ride? That way, you won't have to live through the pain of being eaten by zombies, and you won't turn into an ugly, disgusting zombie."

Yari nodded, her voice choked with emotion, and only instructed her, "Yumeko, please be on time."

Yumeko Jabami smiled and said, "Don't worry, with my understanding of human anatomy, I guarantee that severing the major artery with one cut won't cause you too much pain. After seeing Ryota off one more time, I'll end my own life and come down to join you."

Just as Jabami Yumeko exerted force with her fingers, precisely and swiftly severing Saotome Meari's carotid artery with a single stroke.

A dense streak of lightning fell from the sky.

The blazing lightning was like a wildly dancing silver snake, or a thunderous forest. In the blink of an eye, it blasted hundreds of zombies around it into charred remains.

Then, the man appeared.

He was wearing a stylish long black trench coat, with a pair of huge metal wings fluttering behind him.

He descended bathed in lightning, looking like a god who controlled thunder.

Yumeko Jabami stared blankly at the man who looked just like her that day, then looked at Aya, who was lying helplessly in her arms with blood gushing from her neck. She had only one thought in her mind: I should probably commit suicide to atone for my sins.

However, at this moment, the man gently waved his hand, emitting a crystalline light that landed on Yari's neck. Yari's neck wound healed instantly, the bleeding stopped, and her cheeks, which had gradually turned pale due to excessive blood loss, became rosy again.

Then the man waved his hand again, and a gentle breeze swept by, stripping away the blood that had sprayed onto half of Yari and Yumeko Jabami's bodies, leaving them completely unstained.

"This……"

Jabami Yumeko stared in disbelief, and Saotome Meari, who had narrowly escaped death, was also completely stunned.

Then, just as they came to their senses and were about to thank him, the man smiled at them and waved his hand again. Yumeko Jabami felt a dizzying sensation and then lost consciousness.

When he woke up, he was already in that small castle tower, locked up with many girls he didn't know.

now.

Recalling the past, Yumeko Jabami couldn't help but mutter to herself:
"What a baffling guy. Saving someone's life at a critical moment—that's an incredible act of kindness! He's incredibly handsome, and his strength is godlike. In this zombie apocalypse where survival is uncertain, he could easily have girls throwing themselves at him, right? At least with Yari, if he just snapped his fingers, she would definitely be all clean and ready to climb into his bed that very night. But that guy just..."

They were captured and brought to this place, imprisoned in the castle tower, guarded by terrifying evil spirits, and forced to learn martial arts, mop floors, sweep the courtyard, and even learn sewing, embroidery, and vegetable gardening every day...

So what exactly is that guy thinking?

He could easily win a girl's heart, but he chose to use this semi-coercive method just to experience the pleasures of a feudal lord.

It's such a mess.

Yumeko Jabami kept complaining until she followed Oren Ishii to the top floor of the Great Castle and arrived at the entrance of a small hall, where she finally calmed down.

Ishii Oren pushed open the door and gestured for Jabami Yumeko to enter.

Jabami Yumeko politely nodded her thanks to Ishii Oren and stepped into the door.

Unlike Miyamoto Rei and Takagi Saya.

Despite her seemingly gentle and virtuous demeanor, Yumeko Jabami never bowed her head from the moment she entered, maintaining a posture with her eyes looking straight ahead.

Therefore, as soon as she passed through the entrance hall and entered the living room, she saw the man who was behaving inexplicably.

This sight immediately stunned her.

In the small hall, the man, his strong and muscular body bare, sat cross-legged behind a table with some snacks laid out, with a naked girl sitting in his lap.

The girl leaned against the man with her back to him, facing the direction from which Yumeko Jabami had come. From Yumeko's perspective, she could even clearly see that the girl and the man were in a deep connection.

Men are definitely the ultimate demons.

The girl in his arms was someone Jabami Yumeko recognized; she was the daughter of the head butler, Miss Wu Yasha, and one of their martial arts instructors, Miss Garuda.

Speaking of which, the head housekeeper looks to be only twenty-five or twenty-six years old, but she is actually thirty-four years old and her daughter is sixteen.

As for the relationship between the head butler and the Demon King, Yumeko Jabami didn't need to guess to know. She just hadn't expected that even Garuda-san would...

Well, actually, she shouldn't have been so oblivious to that.

The Great Demon King built a "Great Palace"—no, it should be "Paradise City"—clearly intending to make this city and the women within it his exclusive harem. So, which woman living in this Paradise City could escape the Great Demon King's clutches?

But weren't the Great Demon King and Miss Garuda going a bit too far?

I hadn't heard Miyamoto Rei and Takagi Saya mention that the Great Demon King received them in this way.

Jabami Yumeko muttered to herself, but her face remained completely expressionless, and she didn't even try to avoid eye contact.

With a calm expression, she took small steps to within ten paces of the small table, then pressed her hands to the hem of her yukata and kimono, knelt down, and bowed her head in reverence:
"Jabaki Yumeko greets her master."

"Get up," Li Xingzhou said calmly.

When Jabami Yumeko straightened her slender waist and looked up, Li Xingzhou felt the Garuda's delicate body in his arms tremble violently, and then she collapsed weakly into his arms.

It was clear that Garuda was provoked by Yumeko Jabami's gaze.

The fact that Garuda summoned the girl to serve her tonight was a "reward" she actively requested; she wanted to play this exciting little game.

So far, the game seems to be performing quite well; at least Garuda has gained complete satisfaction.

Li Xingzhou gently comforted the semi-conscious Garuda while looking at Jabami Yumeko and said with a smile:

“I have a deep impression of you. The precision and efficiency with which you severed your partner’s carotid artery that day is still fresh in my memory.”

Jabami Yumeko smiled slightly and said softly:

"Please forgive my rudeness, Master. We were prepared to die that day. If it weren't for your miraculous intervention, we would have become food for the zombies. We will always remember your life-saving grace."

Li Xingzhou nodded and smiled, "No need to thank me. I saved you only to satisfy myself."

“I know.” Jabami Yumeko said earnestly, “But whatever the master’s original intention was, the debt of saving our lives is objectively real, and we should repay it.”

"Very good." Li Xingzhou smiled with delight. "Come sit down and pour me some wine."

Jabami Yumeko got up and knelt down beside the small table, holding her sleeve with one hand and the wine pot with the other, and poured a cup of wine for Li Xingzhou.

As she poured the wine, she glanced at Garuda, who was still connected to Li Xingzhou and, despite his seemingly delirious state, was still instinctively swaying his hips slightly. She exclaimed in admiration:

"Miss Garuda's body is truly beautiful. Master's body is even more perfect, like that of a god."

Li Xingzhou chuckled, holding Garuda in one arm and picking up a wine cup with the other, taking a small sip, and said:

"The human body has some flaws; no mortal is born perfect. But cultivation can make the body and mind move closer to perfection. Your innate conditions are excellent; as long as you cultivate diligently, you will also have a body as perfect as a goddess."

"Thank you, Master. I will strive to cultivate diligently."

As she spoke, Yumeko Jabami picked up a piece of yellowtail sushi with her chopsticks and fed it to Li Xingzhou.

"I heard from Yasha that although you have no martial arts foundation, your talent for cultivation is on par with top-tier talents like Saeko Busujima and Hibiki Sakura, and is in no way inferior to Garuda."

A glint flashed in Li Xingzhou's eyes. He scrutinized Jabami Yumeko for a moment, then nodded and said:
"She has a good eye. You are indeed exceptionally talented, and not only can you cultivate immortal martial arts."

Yumeko Jabami even possesses spiritual roots, allowing her to cultivate the path of Qi refining.

If that's the case, then in addition to the Qi and Blood Martial Arts, the Furnace Technique "Heavenly Consort Fragrant Technique" should also be arranged for her.

Speaking of which, the Heavenly Consort Fragrance Technique, which has already been passed on to Takagi Saya, is only a demonic cultivation method, but it is still beneficial to the cultivator.

Needless to say, its basic functions such as maintaining youthful appearance and immunity to all diseases are also quite effective in prolonging life. Furthermore, it can also be used to cultivate magic, and if one has enough talent, it may even reach the Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, or Nascent Soul stages.

However, since it is a furnace or cauldron, it is impossible for it to cultivate into a true immortal on its own.

The problem is, how many people in the cultivation world can actually ascend to immortality?

Li Xingzhou reached the half-step True Immortal realm in several lifetimes, but in the end, he still stopped before the Immortal Gate.

Therefore, having spiritual roots and being able to cultivate is already quite good.

"Thank you for your praise, Master. Mengzi will work even harder to live up to your expectations."

Yumeko Jabami is gentle and soft-spoken, and her voice is also gentle and melodious, which easily gives people the illusion of being gentle, quiet, or even weak.

But Li Xingzhou knew that this was not her true nature.

He had personally witnessed her performance in dire situations.

In such a desperate situation, she could remain calm, rationally and resolutely choose a dignified way to die for herself and her companions, and calmly send her companions on their way. How could such a girl be as gentle and quiet as she appears on the surface?
Li Xingzhou looked at Jabami Yumeko with a smile and said:
"You brought a deck of cards?"

“Yes.” Yumeko Jabami put down her chopsticks and took out an unopened deck of cards from her belt.

Why bring a deck of cards?

“Because…” Jabami Yumeko looked up at Li Xingzhou, “I want to make a bet with my master.”

As soon as she said those words, her expression changed visibly. Her chin tilted slightly up, her eyes turned upward, and a hint of madness shone through her red pupils.

"Want to make a bet with me?" Li Xingzhou chuckled. "You like gambling?"

"Yes, I love gambling. I really love gambling. I love the suspense before the cards are dealt, I love the uncertainty and risk... Gambling makes me happy, it can even drive me crazy!"

When talking about her favorite things, Yumeko Jabami's gentle voice turned into an excited, mature woman's voice, her eyes shining brightly, and she instantly transformed from a gentle and quiet noble lady into a gambling queen overflowing with madness.

She stared intently at Li Xingzhou and said in a provocative tone:

"Make a bet with me. If you can defeat me in my area of ​​expertise, I will obey your every command and be at your mercy. I'll even cut off my head and offer it to you if you want it!"

“First of all, your life already belongs to me,” Li Xingzhou said with a smile. “Secondly, even if I don’t gamble with you, you will still have to obey me and let me do as I please. So, you don’t have any chips to gamble with me.”

"Yes, I have no bargaining chips. You even saved my life, but at least I can still retain my dignity."

Yumeko Jabami's face twisted into a slightly contorted smile. "Make a bet with me. I'll stake my dignity. If you win, from this day forward, I'll be your female dog. You can even leash me and make me crawl around naked all over the world! How about that bet? Exciting, isn't it?"

Girl, you have no idea what kind of being you're facing!

Even if I don't gamble, I can still make you willingly do anything to please me, as long as I want to.

Li Xingzhou thought to himself leisurely.

But seeing Jabami Yumeko's radiant spirit and arrogant demeanor, Li Xingzhou nodded slightly and said with a smile:
"Fine, I'll take your gamble. I'll bet on your dignity."

Yumeko Jabami's lips curled into a smile. "So, what if I win?"

Li Xingzhou smiled and asked, "What do you want?"

Jabami Yumeko stared intently at Li Xingzhou and slowly said:
"If I win, from now on when I serve you in bed, I must be on top and I must be in control of the situation."

She did not make unrealistic demands such as setting her free.

In this apocalyptic world overrun by zombies, where can she go to pursue freedom?

Furthermore, she also agreed with the Great Demon King's statement that, strictly speaking, she had no bargaining chips at all. She merely created a bargaining chip out of thin air based on the "dignity" that was essentially destined to be illusory in front of the Great Demon King.

Since that's the case, she could only make such a bet—on the other hand, she had never been resistant to the Great Demon King. If the Great Demon King hadn't acted so inexplicably, and if he had spent a little more time comforting them after saving them, given the current apocalyptic situation, she and Yari might have already climbed into his bed.

"Okay, I accept your bet." Li Xingzhou then asked, "How do we bet?"

“It’s very simple.” Yumeko Jabami said as she unpacked the new deck of cards, “Everyone draws one card and we compare the sizes.”

Li Xingzhou asked, "Will the game be decided in one round?"

Jabami Yumeko's lips curled up, her pupils dilated, and her tone became excited:

"One game decides the outcome!" (End of Chapter)
