Hell’s Handbook

A colorful glow flickered in Su Jin’s eyes and he immediately discovered what was wrong with Wu Chen. The older man’s consciousness had clearly been altered, and that was why he was attacking Chu Yi.

“What do we do then?!” asked Chu Yi.

“Um… we’ll talk about that after we subdue him!” Su Jin frowned. Whether he could restore Wu Chen’s consciousness or not was a question that could only be answered after they got him under control.

But Wu Chen was a lot stronger than they had imagined. The will of the universe had made the revived Wu Chen extra powerful, so his shapeshifting ability became almost invincible.

It took Chu Yi a lot of effort to finally find a chance to get close to Wu Chen. He slammed a palm against Wu Chen’s shoulder, only for Wu Chen’s shoulder to disappear and dodge the attack.

After that, spikes grew out of Wu Chen’s back toward Chu Yi. Chu Yi summoned his Spirit Power to protect himself.

The spikes on Wu Chen’s back became something like a vacuum cleaner that sucked away all of Chu Yi’s Spirit Power. Su Jin quickly pulled Chu Yi away, but Wu Chen’s spikes spewed Chu Yi’s Spirit Power at them.

In that instant, the spikes transformed into guns that shot Chu Yi’s qi at them rapidly. Su Jin quickly got out of harm’s way.

“Oh my god, that’s terrifying! He’s become invincible!” Chu Yi wiped away the cold sweat on his face.

Su Jin nodded in agreement. Before this, they did not think that Wu Chen’s Spirit Power could be used so creatively, but now, they realized that his power could actually be truly terrifying. Of course, Su Jin did not think that Wu Chen was able to achieve this level of prowess based on the powers he had when he died. After all, Su Jin was someone who had surpassed godly levels, while Chu Yi was as good as a quasi god. There was no reason why both of them were having so much trouble subduing Wu Chen.

“Wu Chen’s powers have been increased somehow.” Su Jin was very certain. Wu Chen’s powers were probably at the pinnacle of what shapeshifting could achieve. He was able to constantly find the best way to handle each situation and make his opponents panic and scramble.

“I feel like I can’t defeat him!” Chu Yi was indignant about that, but that was the harsh reality he had to face now. If Su Jin hadn’t pulled him aside, he was going to suffer severe injury for sure.

“I’ll take over!” Su Jin slammed a palm down. The colorful glow in the air transformed into a huge hand that smashed Wu Chen into the ground.

Wu Chen was trying to find the best way to deal with this huge hand that had come out of nowhere, but Su Jin’s powers came from outside the Handbook. His shapeshifting abilities were unable to come up with a way to fight back and he had no choice but to remain under that huge, colorful hand.

“Boss! Did you smash him to death?!” Chu Yi’s eyes widened. Regardless of what had happened to Wu Chen before this, one thing was for sure – Wu Chen had been brought back to life. If Su Jin ended up smashing him dead again, that would really be ironic.

“Don’t worry, I can control my own strength,” Su Jin assured him. They walked toward Wu Chen and saw that his gaze was filled with hatred as he glared at them with bloodshot eyes.

“Wu Chen, hear me out! Jingru and I believe in free love!” said Chu Yi as he scratched his head.

Su Jin glared at him. “Shush!”

He grabbed hold of Wu Chen’s head and the colorful glow entered Wu Chen’s consciousness. Su Jin realized what was going on now. He exclaimed, “Someone’s inverted what he loves and what he hates. What he loves the most becomes what he hates the most, and vice versa. No wonder he tried to attack us like that.”

“Good heavens! I’m so glad we got here first. If he got to Jingru, she’d be dead meat,” Chu Yi shuddered. Then he asked Su Jin, “Can this be reversed?”

Su Jin furrowed his brows. In theory, that could definitely be done. But Su Jin was still uneasy about the whole thing. Who revived Wu Chen? Why did they alter Wu Chen’s consciousness? Was it just to make Wu Chen kill the people dearest to him?

“Cover me! Don’t let anyone disrupt me!” said Su Jin to Chu Yi. Chu Yi immediately nodded to assure Su Jin.

Su Jin’s hand was still holding Wu Chen’s head. Wisps of his maniacal power entered Wu Chen’s head via his fingers. Since the will of the universe could alter the consciousness of people, Su Jin could do the same. They were almost on par in terms of power, and once Su Jin could establish and build his own temple of gods, the difference between the two would decrease even further.

Time slowly ticked by, and about two hours later, the crazed look in Wu Chen’s eyes faded. He now stared at Su Jin and Chu Yi with joy in his eyes, which quickly turned to one of confusion.

Su Jin let go of Wu Chen’s head and asked, “Wu Chen… are you back to normal?”

“Am I back to normal? You make it sound like I wasn’t normal before!” said Wu Chen with a laugh. Then he suddenly touched his face and asked, “Wait, I… I’ve been revived?”

“You have! Congrats, Wu Chen!” said Chu Yi with a big grin.

But Wu Chen was still puzzled. He asked Su Jin, “You guys revived me?”

Su Jin shook his head and said, “I wanted to ask you that. Who revied you?”

Wu Chen shook his head. “I… I can’t remember anymore. The last thing I remember is the point where I died, and I don’t remember what happened after that. But I vaguely remember… seeing you?”

Wu Chen pointed a finger at Su Jin, which surprised Su Jin. Su Jin paused to think, then said, “Maybe… that was because I was helping to restore your consciousness.”

Wu Chen was still trying to wrap his head around the situation. He asked, “How long has it been since the Challenge ended?”

“It’s been a very long time, and many things have changed.” Chu Yi looked so despondent, Wu Chen couldn’t help but conclude that he must have been dead for a long time. Even Chu Yi had become so much more serious now.

“It has been quite a long time, and we’ll fill you in later. But first, Chu Yi’s prepared a surprise for you!” said Su Jin with a smile.

“Oh? What’s the surprise?” asked Wu Chen.

“I revived your daughter!” said Chu Yi.

Su Jin slapped his own forehead. Chu Yi was really bad at springing surprises. He couldn’t believe the boy just spelled it out for Wu Chen.

Wu Chen blinked a few times, then got up with a start and grabbed hold of Chu Yi. “What… what did you just say?!”

“I revived your daughter,” Chu Yi repeated himself.

“Where’s she? Where’s she!” Wu Chen got very excited.

Su Jin used maniacal power to envelope all three of them and brought them back to Chu Yi’s house. But before going in, he let Chu Yi go in to tell Wu Jingru about what was going on first. He was afraid that Wu Jingru might be too overwhelmed by the situation otherwise.

Wu Chen suddenly felt a little panicky about seeing his daughter again and kept asking Su Jin if he looked alright, or whether he should get changed and so on. He only calmed down after Su Jin gave him full marks for his appearance.

After he had calmed down, he asked Su Jin, “By the way, was I the only one who died in that Challenge?”

“About that… Team Boning Knife has already been disbanded,” said Su Jin with a sad smile. “We disbanded after that Challenge. We lost a lot of people. Only Chu Yi, Situ, and myself survived it. Ye Yun, Bo Ya, and you didn’t make it.”

Wu Chen was stunned for a second, then he sighed. But he suddenly brightened up again, “That’s alright. Since I could be revived, they can be revived too!”

“You’re right. Since you’ve been revived, they…” Su Jin stopped himself as a terrible thought suddenly struck him.

He sent Wu Chen right up to Chu Yi’s doorstep and said, “Take your time to reunite with your daughter, I’ve got to attend to something else now!”

Wu Chen could guess why Su Jin was in a hurry to leave and asked, “Do you need my help?”

“No need. It’s been a long time since you saw Jingru, and it’s more important for you and your daughter to be reunited. I can handle the other side!” Su Jin grinned nervously, then used maniacal power to teleport himself.

Once he was back in his world, he wrapped himself in maniacal power so that nobody could detect his presence. Thankfully, things in S City still looked peaceful, so it didn’t seem as though any chaos had occurred.

He gave Situ Jin a call, and before he could say anything, Xu Ran yelled at him from the other end.

“Damn it! Where have you been! Come over right now!” shouted Xu Ran.

Su Jin asked, “What happened? Why are you picking up Situ’s call?”

“Situ is on the verge of dying, so if you don’t come over now, you’ll be in charge of his funeral!” yelled Xu Ran just as a loud explosion went off behind him.

“Is it… Ye Yun and Bo Ya?” asked Su Jin.

“You know what’s going on and you’re still asking me about it?! I have no idea how the fuck these two women became so powerful!” cursed Xu Ran before hanging up on Su Jin.
