Chapter 708: Let me Tell You a Secret
"Su Chen, are you going to have fun? Take me with you, please?" The girl immediately looked at Su Chen with pleading eyes when she saw he was about to leave.
"I'm not going to have fun, I'm going on serious business!" Su Chen rolled his eyes.
Come on, you're a centuries-old demon, for heaven's sake.
Don't act cute, please.
"What serious business? I want to go too!"
"Just sit tight and behave yourself!" Su Chen didn't bother to respond.
"Su Chen, you're really leaving me behind?" The girl pouted, her face full of sorrowful reproach.
Su Chen: "..."
"You'll regret it if you go..." Su Chen said maliciously, pretending to be evil.
He had hoped that by saying this, the Netherworld Empress would drop the idea of going with him, but to his surprise, she said cheerfully, "I will not regret it."
Su Chen: "..."
Suddenly, the girl spoke up, "I have a secret to tell you!"
"Oh? What secret?"
"Actually..."
"Actually what, stop dragging it out!" Su Chen said impatiently.
"Actually, every month... my body returns to normal..." The girl said, blushing.
Her body returning to normal...
Su Chen's body shook with a start.
What's the use of that!
If your body returns to normal and your strength does too, how many men in this world could possibly beat you?
"During the period each month when I return to normal, my strength doesn't return. It's only once a year during the Peak phase that my power returns to normal..." the girl explained.
Su Chen's eyes lit up.
So it's only her body that returns to normal, but not her strength.
Tsk tsk...
"So, you can wait, just wait a month," said the girl.
Twenty to thirty days, that's worth the wait.
"You're not lying to me, are you?" Su Chen looked at her skeptically.
This girl, she always keeps the truth from him.
"I'm absolutely not lying to you, if I lie to you, then I'm a little dog," the girl hastened to say.
"Alright then, you just stay put and behave, I'm going to take care of some things." Su Chen waved his hand, preparing to leave.
"Su Chen, where are you going? Don't leave me here all alone, please, I'm scared!"
"I'm going to find you some food, otherwise, I can't afford to keep you fed with your appetite!" Su Chen said irritably.
Indeed, he was heading to Sofia's territory, firstly to take over the work there.
Secondly, to gather some food from there.
Otherwise, given the girl's appetite, he would be the one starving.
Sofia's territory was just one district away from where Su Chen was.
Su Chen was riding a mountain bike across the fields.
Generally, administrators only oversee one district.
Yet he managed two.
The number of slaves under his command had surged to 1,000.
Among the administrators, he had a bit of a clout.
District 12.
The administrator's room.
Red Luo was kneeling in front of two men.
One of the men was lounging lazily in a chair, a cigar in his mouth.
The other stood by his side.
He had a weaselly appearance, instantly giving off a sly vibe.
"Red Luo, don't be ungrateful. Sofia is dead, and Big Boss Jack is the next administrator; you should know exactly what to do," said the weaselly-faced man.
Red Luo bit her lip, her gaze heavy as it landed on the cigar-puffing figure.
Jack!
A towering black man, muscular, one meter ninety in height, the head of the guards in District 12, also Sofia's lover, known as the man most likely to become an administrator.
Now, with Sofia's death, theoretically, there was a ninety-nine percent chance that he would be appointed as the administrator of District 12.
Although the head guard had significant power.
He was still not the manager.
He had no right to allocate slaves.
Now Sofia was dead, Jack had become the administrator.
All of District 12's slaves, guards, would be under his control.
Naturally, Jack was the happiest about Sofia's death.
When Sofia was alive, even Jack had to watch her moods and act accordingly.
Moreover, Sofia liked to trade the female slaves of District 12, especially the pretty ones, with other district administrators for male slaves.
This led to a distinct shortage of female slaves in District 12, and those remaining were hardly lookers.
The few that were beautiful were all carefully utilized by Sofia.
Red Luo was one of them.
And she was the most beautiful among them.
However, Sofia kept a tight leash on them.
Not allowing anyone to touch them.
Jack had long coveted Red Luo's beauty, not just for a day or two.
Unfortunately, because Sofia existed, he dared not reveal his intentions.
But now things have changed.
Sofia was dead.
All the slaves in this district were his to manage.
And the high-quality beauties handpicked by Sofia were no exception.
Of course, his most valued was Red Luo.
So, he called for Red Luo immediately.
