Chapter 27: A Drag

Character: Luo Hong

Sin Level: -59

Title: Little B*stard (?)

Race: Man (Mortal)

Cultivated Arts: Phantom Shadow (Incomplete), Sword Qi Secret.

State: Ninth Rank (Jusha), Ninth (Sword Qi)

Luo Hong had been unconscious for a while, and when he opened his eyes, the character statistics appeared in his mind. His eyes were out of focus as if he had lost the will to live.

‘Sin Level -59?!’

If he remembered correctly, he had started with -29 Sin Level. Joining the bandits had given him +20, which meant that his Sin Level had been docked by 50 after getting a +20. In the end, he ended up with -59 Sin Level.

This would be the so-called rollercoaster ride of his life.

He gripped his chest tightly. Sooner or later, the little manual might give him a heart attack.

Other people’s cheating worked wonders in a simple way, yet he faced difficulties even after several tries.

“Wait! Why is there a question mark beside the title Little B*stard!?”

Luo Hong’s lips trembled. Did the human skin manual just look down on him?

He took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down. He flipped to the diary page and saw a new entry on the page.

“June 17th, the Great Xia Calendar. Cloudy.

“Today, I became a hero. The world knew me as a courageous and righteous person. I wiped out the bandits, destroyed the evil being, and protected the people of Anping County. The county returned to peace, and the emissaries from the Court of Judicial Review praised me for my actions.

“Diary entry, -50 Sin Level”

‘What heartache! It’s so painful that it practically killed me! This is a fake entry, right?’

Luo Hong put the manual down and gazed into the void.

‘Is it because this cheating manual doesn’t match my four pillars of destiny? Or is it because I, Luo Hong, accidentally added all my points to ‘Luck’? Or am I some philanthropist reincarnated that everything I do will turn into a good deed?’

Luo Hong shook his head and continued reading. He flipped to the Prize Pool because it was the day the list got updated.

Prize Pool.

Special Prize: Heavenly Demon Indestructible Body (Sin Level: +?? …? Exchangeable)

First Prize: Demon Overlord’s Eye (Sin Level: +1,000,000. Exchangeable)

Second Prize: Completed Heaven State Demon Cultivation Arts, Wicked Nandikesvara (Sin Level: + 10,000. Exchangeable)

Third Prize: 1 Bottle of Demon Sha Pills. (Sin Level +100. Exchangeable)

Consolation Prize: 1 Bottle of Poor Jusha Pills (Sin Level +10/ -1 ~ – ?? …? Exchangeable)

The Prize Pool was updated, and the changes caught Luo Hong by surprise.

Other than the special prize, everything from the first prize to the consolation prize had changed one way or another.

It was tempting, very tempting as usual. The names of the prize alone sounded powerful, but some of them sounded terrible as well, such as the consolation prize.

“What the hell is with the Poor Jusha Pills? Is a consolation prize not worthy of being called a prize?” Luo Hong angrily flipped the table and called the manual a cunning businessman though only in his head.

Soon enough, he shook his head to discard the strange thought. He realized that it was just a consolation prize. What else could he ask for?

“At least, there’s a prize. It will be wasted if I don’t get it…Pills with poor quality? They’re still pills!”

Luo Hong took a deep breath.

To a cultivator, the importance of pills was self-explanatory. All the other prizes were grayed out except for the consolation prize which was glowing in brilliant green.

After he chose to exchange for the pill, Luo Hong suddenly felt dizzy. His consciousness started to spin.

When he finally cleared his head of the dizziness, he found a black ceramic bottle in his hand.

‘Astonishing! How did the prize appear in my hand?’

Luo Hong looked around because he suspected that someone had entered his room and put it into his hand.

However, with his current strength, he could not notice anything fishy.

He uncorked the bottle and took a pill out. The pill was round, but its shape was imperfect. It smelled like rotten tofu.

He then counted the pills and found a total of ten pills inside the bottle.

‘A considerable amount, but the smell…I don’t know how I should describe this.’

Luo Hong kept the bottle away, not wanting to take the pills just yet.

When he closed the manual, he found something new on the cover that surprised him. He had no idea when an icon of an upward arrow had appeared.

“What’s this?” Luo Hong was confused.

The cover of the human skin had been clean before.

On second thought, he put a finger on the arrow.

Bzzt!

An electrifying current shocked his finger and passed through his body.

On the cover, a line of words written in blood appeared.

“Detected character Luo Hong. Prize Pool has been updated twice and Sin Level remained less than 1. Maintenance starting…”

‘Huh? I’m angry, shaking, and scared at the same time! Why are you looking down on me?! What is the meaning of this? Sin Level remained less than 1 during Prize Pool updates?!’

It was no longer a heartache. It felt more like a spear perforating his chest and ripping his heart out.

He lost it.

He wanted to open the manual but realized that he could not do so. He knew that the manual was doing the so-called maintenance.

Meanwhile, he had a feeling that the manual was sneering at him in some way.

Since he could not open the manual, he simply put it away.

He lay down on the bed and started to think about what could have caused his plan to go south.

After some thought, he came up with a conclusion.

“The reason that my plan failed this time is purely an accident! I actually got 20 Sin Level for joining the Heiyun Stockade, but that freaking woman screwed it up! My plan was fine. This is the correct way to earn Sin Level.”

Luo Hong got excited at the thought of it.

“Okay, since the Heiyun Stockade is no more, it won’t stop my plan. There is more than one evil organization in this world. The Heavenly Earth Demons the emissaries mentioned is one of them! And it sounds a lot more evil than the Heiyun Stockade!”

However, Luo Hong did not dwell on the name because even the emissaries from the Court of Judicial Review could not find them, let alone him.

He believed that his next step should be finding another group of bandits to continue his plan of killing two birds with one stone.

It was then that he thought of the amulet that had fallen from that woman when Di Shan’s shadow crushed her head.

He picked up the amulet. It was forged by black iron but…it looked really common.

He rubbed it with his fingers and felt chills from it, causing him to quiver.

‘It must be something wicked.’ Luo Hong squinted his eyes. ‘This thing fell off that freaking woman who was filled with ominous yin energy. Maybe…I can activate this amulet with the same energy!’

Luo Hong’s dantian was empty at the moment since the ominous yin energy had been drained by Di Shan’s shadow.

He sat on his knees and started cultivating Phantom Shadow. His dantian soon gathered a hint of energy.

Following the accumulation of yin energy in his dantian, Luo Hong’s bold yang energy started to turn misty, making him look like a deity in the realm of man.

After he had gathered enough energy, he opened his eyes and transferred the energy into the amulet. The hard surface of the amulet suddenly rippled like the surface of a lake when the energy touched it.

Luo Hong felt like his consciousness was being enveloped by a mysterious force.

When he opened his eyes, he found himself in a spacious but mysterious place.

In the center was a gigantic stone door, and under the door were figures of men in all kinds of strange poses. Everyone had a name above their heads glowing as if they were signs of a shop.

‘Where am I? Am I inside the amulet? Is this dreamland?’

Luo Hong looked up and saw the name above his head: Lady Blood.

He then looked down at his own body. His chest was huge and his hair was long whereas his legs were long and his bum big.

‘Isn’t this the body of that woman that Di Shan’s shadow killed? So…Does it mean I came into this strange place inside the amulet using Lady Blood’s body? Am I really…Lady Blood? Am I a…drag?!’

Shocked, Luo Hong stared at his big, heaving chest.

Uh! Mm-hmm. Huh?!
