Heavenly King - Chapter 7
However, it is understandable to get some money from bad people.
Since becoming the village head of Songzhuang, Wang Youcai has made a fortune. Just looking at the lavishness of his house, it's clear he has a lot of money. Ma Xiaoniu feels no guilt about getting money from him; in fact, he feels good about it.
...
It was 9:30 p.m., and the sky was already pitch black. After a busy day, Wang Youcai could finally rest. Sitting on the edge of the bed, Wang Youcai lit a cigarette, and the swirling smoke cast flickering light and shadow on his face.
Wang Youcai wasn't worried about road construction; he had plenty of money. Besides, the money would come from the people anyway, and he could always recoup it. In the end, wouldn't those fools be the ones who suffered? What Wang Youcai was most worried about now was the ghost. What if that ghost came looking for him again? Should he scout ahead and see if there were any highly skilled Taoist priests or monks?
Wang Youcai stubbed out his cigarette in the ashtray next to the bedside table and picked up his phone.
"Hello, yes, it's me. Xiao He, I remember you used to sell incense and candles, so you should be familiar with temples and such. Okay, do you know any Taoist priests or high-ranking monks with high spiritual power? You ask me why I need to find Taoist priests and high-ranking monks? Of course, it's to exorcise ghosts, what, do you want to marry them? Well, I've encountered something evil lately, so please ask around for me as soon as possible. Okay, that's good. Call me when you find them, money is no object. Okay, I'm hanging up now." Wang Youcai put down the phone, a sinister smile on his face.
"You, Wang Youcai, you've got some nerve!" A voice suddenly rang out from outside the window, but because the curtains were drawn, it was impossible to see who was speaking.
Wang Youcai jumped in fright, "Who? Who the hell is outside the window?"
Wang Youcai realized what was happening and flew into a rage. "Damn it!" he thought. "The voice is clearly human. As long as it's not a ghost, I, Wang Youcai, have nothing to be afraid of." He rushed to the window and yanked the curtains open.
Ma Xiaoniu stood steadily outside the window, smiling as he looked at Wang Youcai.
Wang Youcai naturally didn't recognize Ma Xiaoniu. He had initially been a little worried, fearing it might be a talking ghost, but seeing that it was a living, breathing person in his thirties, what was there to be afraid of?
Wang Youcai was furious, his eyes gleaming red as he glared at Ma Xiaoniu. "Are you tired of living? You dare to mess with your Grandpa Wang? I've remembered your face. Even if you run away today, I'll find you. If you know what's good for you, kneel down right now, kowtow and call me Grandpa, and pay me tens of thousands of yuan in compensation, and we'll call this over. Otherwise, I'll deal with you later."
Ma Xiaoniu's smile vanished, and a cold glint appeared in his eyes. "I was hoping you'd repent, but alas, I never expected this. Fine, I'll grant your wish."

===Chapter Six===
Ma Xiaoniu's eyes turned into black vortexes, and Wang Youcai's originally bright bedroom instantly became dark.
"From this moment on, Ma Xiaoniu is your master."
You must not disobey Ma Xiaoniu's words.
"Ma Xiaoniu is your god, and you will always be Ma Xiaoniu's servant."
"Even if Ma Xiaoniu orders you to die, you must die immediately."
Devil's Eye, dispel!
Wang Youcai's bedroom instantly brightened, and his eyes regained their sparkle.
"Master! Please don't stand outside the window. If you need anything, please come in and give your orders." Wang Youcai's face was full of flattery, and his eyes were fanatical. He looked at Ma Xiaoniu as if he were a god.
"Congratulations to the bound user for completing the task within the specified time—recruit a wicked servant to help you do bad things. Reward: 1 point of energy."
Ma Xiaoniu suddenly felt a strange aura surge into his head, and his mind immediately became as clear as water.
It's like my wish came true. I used up a lot of the Demon's Eye today, and even though I took a nap, my head still felt heavy. This little bit of energy reward makes me feel much better.
...
Wang Youcai's living room. Ma Xiaoniu sat upright on the sofa, while Wang Youcai stood in front of him with his hands at his sides, looking respectful.
"Wang Youcai, you've committed so many evil deeds that you deserve to die. However, now that you're my servant, you'll be spared the death penalty, but you won't escape punishment. First, you must perform one good deed every day, no matter how small. Second, after deducting the money for road repairs, transfer the remaining money to my account. Third, you must be available at my beck and call without delay. Do you agree to these requirements?" Actually, there was no need to ask the last question. The Demon's Eye is a power targeting the soul; once afflicted, there's no chance of escape.
"Master, my life belongs to you. If you want me to die, I will never live, let alone these few requests. Master, rest assured, from now on I am yours in life and in death, and I will never disobey your wishes." Wang Youcai's face was full of flattery, and he did not feel that there was anything wrong with it.
Ma Xiaoniu shivered. Damn, why does this sound so awkward?
Ma Xiaoniu didn't linger. He gave Wang Youcai his card number and told him to call him Brother Ma from now on before heading home. It was already past eleven o'clock when he got home, and he was supposed to receive a new task in about half an hour.
Ma Xiaoniu was still a little worried about the mission, fearing that he might be assigned a task involving murder and arson, which would be disastrous.
Sitting on the living room sofa, Ma Xiaoniu was deep in thought.
So, what if you actually receive a mission to commit murder and arson? Are you really just going to lie down and accept the punishment? Of course not. So, you need to start planning now. So, what should you do?
First of all, there is absolutely no shortage of bad people in this world, nor is there a shortage of people who deserve to die. Killing such people, although it still puts a great psychological burden on Ma Xiaoniu right now, is still acceptable.
Secondly, the world is not lacking in bad deeds and bad people, but generally, bad deeds and bad people are hidden. For example, a murderer wouldn't tell everyone he's a murderer; instead, he hides himself very well. Not to mention Ma Xiaoniu, even the police can't find him, otherwise there wouldn't be so many unsolved cases. Therefore, finding the bad deeds and bad people is the first thing to solve.
Third, finding bad cases is relatively easy. Police files are not accessible to just anyone, but a forum or similar platform can be set up to collect cases. The forum must be extremely confidential, and no one should be able to find out your identity.
Fourth, bad deeds are easy to find, but bad people are hard to find. It will probably require a lot of investigation, and investigation takes a lot of time.
Thinking of this, Ma Xiaoniu couldn't help but rub his temples. This was such a headache! With his current abilities, he really had no way to solve the forum's confidentiality issue, nor could he solve the investigation time issue. He could only turn to the Demon System for help.
"System, are you there? Can I ask you something?" Ma Xiaoniu asked in his mind.
"Yes, Bound Person, I am aware of your plan. As a system, I have an obligation to assist you to a certain extent. The forum can be generated at any time, but it can only be used for evil. Remember, once you violate the system rules, you will be eliminated. The task time can be adjusted according to the task difficulty. You do not need to worry about this. The system can judge the task difficulty and give the most reasonable time arrangement." The system's slightly cold voice sounded in my mind.
Ma Xiaoniu shuddered. Damn it, he had almost forgotten what kind of system this was. This was a demonic system, designed to do evil! Fortunately, this system was, after all, an inanimate object and could not fully comprehend the complexities of human psychology.
"Alright, let's set up the forum now. The forum will be called the Demon Forum, and we'll add two more lines: 'Managing all the affairs of the world, killing all the people in the world.' The forum will have three sections: a case submission area, a case completion area, and a comment area." Ma Xiaoniu was a little conflicted and worried, afraid that the system would know the meaning of the line, but obviously Ma Xiaoniu's worries were unnecessary.
The forum has been set up, the search mechanism has been set up, and the encryption mechanism has been set up. The forum is now complete; please check it out yourself.
"Huh? How do I access this forum? Isn't there an address?" Ma Xiaoniu asked, puzzled.
The system's voice was chilling and dark, filled with murderous intent: "The forum address is: Demon."
"Demon? Just type in 'demon'?" Ma Xiaoniu was about to ask another question, but the system gave no further response.
There's no rush to enter the forum. Ma Xiaoniu glanced at his watch; it was almost midnight. He ate something quick and then lay down on the bed. The time had just passed midnight.
