Way of the Devil
Demons, devils, ghosts and monsters Plunge the mortals weak in horrors; Arms of gods and blades of devils, Shroud the world in untold evils. Lu Sheng was an ordinary civil servant in the modern world. After waking from a drunken stupor one day, he found himself trapped in a dangerous world where demons, ghosts and supernatural monsters terrorize the land. In this world, ordinary mortals live in dark fear and helplessness, without any means to fight against the supernatural. As Lu Sheng struggles desperately for survival, he stumbles upon a game mod he had designed for a mobile phone app in his previous life. It unexpectedly becomes his special ability, which enables him to instantly level up any skill he learns, albeit at a cost. Thus, Lu Sheng begins his journey, striving for power beyond the reach of a mortal as he treads the way of the Devil…
"Take me where these strange incidents occurred so that I can have a look," Lu Sheng cut to the chase. These supernatural beings were continuing to wreak havoc despite how tumultuous the situation already was.
If the Scarlet District had been behind it, there was no way it’d be something limited to such a small-scale incident, involving the disappearances of merely a few mortal men. That was utterly insignificant to the Zhen Family, and could even incur the royal family’s displeasure—the losses would be disproportionately greater than any potential gain.
"It’s just by the harbor outside the city," Ning San complied.
The two of them mounted horses and sped off. Xu Chui, upon hearing the news, also followed swiftly with some other men.
Travelling at full speed, they made their way around Mountain-Edge City for about an hour. Only then did Ning San stop by a small harbor by a patch of wilderness and flipped himself off his horse.
