Even hybrid monsters have their day
Chapter 27 The Great Demon VS Cerberus
Geng Miaowan turned her head and saw a handsome man dressed in a long black robe grinning widely without any regard for his image. He had thick eyebrows and big eyes, and when he smiled, he revealed two small, pointed canine teeth, which made him look somewhat cute. Even though he was completely wrapped in such serious black, it did not diminish the sunny aura he exuded.
Judging from their attire, they should be from the Yama King's Palace, because as far as she knew, only the people from the Yama King's Palace dressed in ancient costumes.
Seeing her looking at him, the man in black stopped laughing and explained, "Our wages are in crystal coins."
You can exchange it for various currencies at the bank on the 35th floor.
"Then I'm relieved." After saying that, Geng Miaowan thanked him and left.
Although it was the fifth floor, the elevator ride took almost ten minutes.
There was only one apartment on the fifth floor. Exiting the elevator, there was a door right next to the door. After swiping her card, Geng Miaowan was stunned by what she saw inside. It was several hundred square meters in size, a duplex, and fully furnished. This wasn't just a high-end residence; it was comparable to a luxury villa. Was land in the underworld worthless? If this were in modern society, she probably couldn't afford it even after working for several lifetimes.
However, she didn't spend much time marveling at this. She picked up Little White and put it on the sofa, pointing at it and saying, "What exactly are you?"
"You're the one who's a jerk!" Huangfu Aoxuan said in human language when he saw that Geng Miaowan was the only one there.
"Then aren't you a thing?"
"Of course I'm not a thing, I..." Seeing that he seemed to have gotten himself into a trap, Huangfu Aoxuan stopped talking in frustration.
“He is Huangfu Aoxuan, the three-headed hellhound,” Luan Hao said.
“Cerberus? Isn’t that something that only appears in mythology?” Geng Miaowan was taken aback. She had considered that Xiaobai’s identity might be unusual, but she never expected it to be like this.
Luan Hao chuckled and, instead of answering, asked, "In your modern human society, aren't immortals and demons something that only appears in mythology?"
After thinking about it, Geng Miaowan felt that what he said made some sense.
After thinking for a moment, he asked again, "So what can it do?"
"It can eat, drink, poop, pee, and sleep."
……
Geng Miaowan expressed her speechlessness at this answer.
"You big demon, don't you know how to eat, drink, defecate, and sleep?" Seeing the two guys communicating in their consciousness, Huangfu Aoxuan also squeezed into their consciousness to join their conversation.
……
Luan Hao said he was also speechless about this issue.
Geng Miaowan sensed something amiss in Huangfu Aoxuan's words, "Great Demon? Could it be that you, Luan Hao, are a demon?"
"more or less."
Thinking that they would coexist peacefully in the future, the three spent the whole night explaining their backgrounds. Although she didn't get much useful information, Geng Miaowan did gain a general understanding of the two of them.
It turns out that Xiaobai wasn't a demonic beast at all, but rather an ancient ferocious beast, the three-headed hellhound. The words "ancient ferocious beast" sounded incredibly cool and awesome, but Geng Miaowan simply couldn't connect those four words with the seemingly harmless little white dog in front of her.
Cerberus has existed since ancient times. Legend has it that it is a ferocious beast responsible for guarding hell. In reality, it does not have any real duties. Usually, it stays away from the hustle and bustle and lives alone in a place where outsiders cannot find it.
Their lifespan is infinitely long, but every ten thousand years they must sleep for a thousand years in order to recover their strength.
Its original form wasn't like this; it was only because Geng Miaowan unintentionally broke its slumber that it hadn't fully recovered its strength, resulting in its current appearance.
According to Xiaobai, Cerberus isn't a single dog, but three, with three heads on one body. The one who appeared that night and tried to bite her was his eldest brother, Huangfu Aoran; his second brother, Huangfu Aohan, was still asleep.
When asked why it fled so quickly when the Dark Cat Spirit attacked last time, Huangfu Aoxuan became somewhat embarrassed and stammered that it had not yet awakened at that time. This time, it was because it accidentally ate bloody meat, which stimulated Huangfu Aoran to awaken, and it then regained its consciousness.
As for Luan Hao, she received even less information.
All that was known was that he was a demon who had escaped from the Desolate Realm on the day they first met, and thus used her body to escape the Underworld. Later, he discovered that her body could conceal his presence from the guardians of the Underworld, so he naturally stayed there.
Although his abilities were damaged and he hadn't fully recovered, that amount of energy would still be unbearable for an ordinary person. So when he entered her body, he separated his spiritual power, which condensed into a pale purple bead. If the energy within the bead wasn't deliberately activated, it would be indistinguishable from an ordinary bead.
What he didn't say was that while this did allow him to escape the guardians' pursuit, it also prevented him from leaving her body due to insufficient energy. Geng Miaowan's body was like a natural insulator, isolating her aura within itself while also preventing it from drawing in external energy.
Xiao Bai had only met Yi Hao once when he was still a little devil, and didn't know much about what happened to him afterward.
The night passed quickly. Although Geng Miaowan didn't get much rest, for a demon, even if she didn't eat, drink, or sleep for several days, it wouldn't have much of an impact.
Early in the morning, she got ready to report to Group 101.
The elevator doors opened with a "ding," and the two handsome men who were talking turned to look at her standing outside the elevator. They must also be residents of this building. Geng Miaowan nodded slightly to the two men and stepped into the elevator.
Although the elevator here was much larger than those in human society, Geng Miaowan felt the space inside was somewhat cramped, perhaps because of the strong presence of those two handsome men. Feeling as if two probing gazes were fixed on her from behind, she unconsciously moved to the side, making those ten minutes feel incredibly long.
"Are you the new guy?" the blue-eyed man asked. He had beautiful milk tea-colored hair, neatly cut into short bobs that reached his eyebrows, with slight curls that gently bounced up. He wore a well-fitting casual suit and carried a casual bag, making him look stylish and handsome.
Seeing that he was talking to her, Geng Miaowan couldn't pretend she hadn't heard him. She turned around, smiled slightly, and said, "Yes, I'm a new resident on the fifth floor. I hope you'll take care of me in the future."
“Of course.” He answered without any politeness, then leaned back and introduced himself, “My name is Zhan Xisheng, I live on the seventh floor, and this is Feng Xuanyi, I live on the sixth floor.”
When Zhan Xisheng mentioned Feng Xuanyi, Luan Hao inside Geng Miaowan's body clearly moved and said to her, "He is the Five Officials King in charge of the Seven Palaces of the Underworld."
