#269 - 264. The Devil's Love
Mo Jiangwen went to the closet, quickly took out a full suit and changed into it neatly. Then, he went to the mirror and slightly adjusted the shape and length of his devil horns, before turning around and heading towards the door leading to the summoning room in a bit of a hurry.
He walked to the summoning mirror, then struck a professional and respectful pose, and gave the imp behind the mirror a look.
"You were looking for me?" Mo Jiangwen asked first, looking at the woman in the mirror with an expressionless face.
But he was not as calm as he appeared to be. Return visits from clients were something no devil liked. This kind of communication initiated by the client was expensive, and they often did it to throw new troubles his way.
If it were normal, the butler might say a few comforting words. He had basically brought the butler with him during calls for the past two hundred years, but now he had sent him to track down the remaining members of the Salvation Alliance, which made Mo Jiangwen feel a little unaccustomed.
Shu Yun's ugly expression made Mo Jiangwen suspect that he had done something to offend her.
"That's right, I'm looking for you," she said coldly, "Why haven't you taken care of what I asked you to do yet?"
Mo Jiangwen said respectfully:
"Soon, soon, just waiting for..."
Shu Yun interrupted rudely:
"Waiting? Waiting until I'm dead?"
Mo Jiangwen noticed that Shu Yun's emotions were not right, and then asked in a low voice:
"Did you encounter something?"
Shu Yun looked straight at him:
"They assassinated me. Members of the Salvation Alliance in the Eastern Federation summoned a demon. Do you know what it did in my house?
"It destroyed all my collections, and I almost died there myself."
That's a pity.
Mo Jiangwen didn't say this heartfelt sentence. If Shu Yun could suddenly die now, it would be the best thing for him. He could then focus all his energy on seducing Chen Yun into depravity.
Unfortunately, this was impossible, even though this arrogant lady's personality was terrible, and the reason was also extraordinary.
Although she understood the games within the Federation, and had an amazing talent in some terrible areas, such as being mean and vicious, and how to make others feel uncomfortable, these things could be considered excellent advantages in her position.
But these things couldn't guarantee her safety, and she could easily get into trouble, and then encounter a powerful enemy that couldn't be solved by the Federation and her methods in a moment of bad luck, and then be recklessly retaliated against and killed.
But she still lived to this day, and lived very well.
This wasn't luck.
The actual situation was the opposite of normal logic. The truth was that only by living in an environment where she wouldn't encounter criticism could she be qualified to become the annoying and vicious person she was today. Of course, being able to grow into this was mainly due to her outstanding "talent".
She had a good father.
This was the answer, and also the reason why Mo Jiangwen frequently signed contracts with her. Otherwise, he wouldn't talk business with this annoying bastard at all. Shu Yun's family background allowed her to afford a price above the average level, and this was also why she could find him.
And even if the price to be paid exceeded her ability to bear, she still had a father who could settle the debt.
Normally speaking, he absolutely wouldn't want such an excellent client to have any problems, but before signing the last contract with her, Mo Jiangwen hadn't met Chen Yun yet. At that time, he had no idea what kind of changes he would usher in.
At this moment, he could only say against his will:
"Are you sure? If that's the case, I can inquire about it in Hell. Although we and demons are not very harmonious overall, I can find an intermediary who specializes in making money from this..."
Shu Yun scolded:
"I'm not here to spend money to buy solutions. I've already taken care of the attackers."
Mo Jiangwen was skeptical about this. She didn't look like she had taken care of the attackers, but more like a vengeful spirit who had come to him for revenge after death.
"Then what do you want?" Mo Jiangwen explained politely, "When you signed the contract, you didn't ask me to solve them all in a short time, nor did you ask me to be responsible for your safety. If these clauses are added, I'm afraid it will be another price."
Shu Yun said:
"I don't need protection, but I want you to catch them in a short time."
The devil said:
"Although my current efficiency is low, it's only a matter of time before I catch them without outside help. Do you know what this means? This is not just a casual tracking, but an action led by top experts in the industry.
"Most of the money you gave me was used to hire experts. Here, I want to emphasize that finding the right candidates and dispatching them is not a simple task, and in this process, I also used my own abilities to strive for a low enough price.
"That's why I can find you five hellhounds to track them. They are all IV-level hell creatures, and they are also leaders in this field, but even they can't find those Salvation Alliance members in a short time.
"Our target is not some idiot who got here by luck, nor are they mass-produced goods from you or other large organizations. The Salvation Alliance has already been screened by you. Those who have survived to this day are all elites in the fields of combat and hiding.
"And those who still dare to fight against you now must be the top among them. If they didn't have the confidence to ensure their safety, how could they still insist on fighting against you?
"If that's the case, you can completely handle this matter with your own resources. Why bother spending money to find me?"
Shu Yun said dissatisfied:
"Because the resources I can dispatch in this matter are limited, and the Federation doesn't want to encounter losses either. Not everyone in our organization supports our approach. If the attrition rate is too high, it will create an excuse for them to object.
"If we wanted to, we could find them faster."
In fact, she knew that what Mo Jiangwen said was right. This matter was not that simple, but if she let go now, then this greedy devil would ask for an exorbitant price, and then she would have to waste a lot of time arguing.
Mo Jiangwen didn't argue about this, but just looked at her and said:
"But not here with us, and you can't find them in a 'faster' way.
"And I can provide a fast enough solution here, but the price may be higher than you can imagine."
Shu Yun said:
"It doesn't matter, I have money."
And the Federation can reimburse part of it.
Mo Jiangwen said:
"In Hell, there is a great demon who is honored as the Angel Hunter. He is also the breeder of these hellhounds. Although he is a demon, our relationship is still harmonious, and he also likes the devil's contract method.
"For him, only hunting angels is important. Other old ideas and hatred have no meaning. And the hellhounds I found are all subjects of this great man. He leads the tracking business in Hell.
"In fact, half of the souls I give them go to that great man's hands.
"According to that great man, he created this business to ensure that those hellhounds have enough practical training in peacetime, so that they won't fail when tracking and hunting angels, and you must have thought of it.
"He also has other more advanced services.
"His avatar will also undertake this work, and the target is also entities of level IV and below. Although he is a great demon, he can't possibly offend other strong people of the same level for simple interests.
"In other words, this service completely meets your requirements."
Shu Yun's voice was a little quieter:
"How much?"
Mo Jiangwen blinked:
"The low price is thirty times the current price, and it doesn't include the cost of the descent ceremony. It is estimated that the overall price will be thirty-seven or eight times."
Shu Yun raised her voice:
"Are you crazy! Do you want me to go bankrupt?"
Mo Jiangwen shrugged and said:
"And it only includes tracking services. This is already the lowest price.
"You must know that normally those who use it are other V-level ability users. What they are looking for are special abnormal entities that can't be tracked by normal methods at all. If you can afford it, I estimate that it can be done in half a day.
"And most of the time is spent on establishing the ceremony. The tracking itself may only take half an hour.
"If you are willing to increase the price, he can also descend directly."
The look in Shu Yun's eyes suddenly became particularly terrifying:
"Are you playing me?"
Mo Jiangwen shook his head:
"You are my best customer. I know very well that you can afford this price, but what you said makes sense. This method is indeed not very cost-effective. This service is also a bit too luxurious for us.
"In fact, we can recommend another service to you."
He never thought that Shu Yun would really hire a great demon to find someone for herself. This was just a small negotiation trick. Proposing an unacceptable sky-high price first would be beneficial to the subsequent high price, which could effectively improve the customer's acceptance and psychological expectations.
And this can also give her enough time to think and judge, which is also the best way to facilitate a transaction. Considering the transaction will give the customer the illusion that they really want it.
Shu Yun immediately asked:
"What service?"
Mo Jiangwen said:
"He has several famous subordinates. The team we are currently hiring is not the most outstanding among them, but if you don't have any time requirements, they are also the most cost-effective choice.
"If we hire two of them at the same time, I guarantee that we can find them within three days, and unlike the hunter's incarnation, these hell creatures will also participate in the battle to a certain extent.
"As long as you can always maintain the advantage, they will be your most reliable allies.
"As for the price...
"You will give me seven times the total."
Shu Yun showed a painful expression:
"Expensive, and this means that all the money I paid before was wasted."
If it was this price, the proportion that the Federation could reimburse would not be high, and she could not let the Federation pay too much, otherwise this matter would not be considered her credit, and she had to consider her future.
Although her father had made a lot of money when he was in power, she could not use it casually. If that money was all her own, then she would have agreed happily now, because in her opinion it was completely worth it.
This could both avenge those Eastern Federation members who dared to assassinate her, and also make Shen Xiao show the expression that she enjoyed.
But if you really want to calculate it carefully, this is completely a losing business. Those Salvation Alliance members are unlikely to attack her again in a short time, and she is not so worried about this after changing to a completely new security company.
So what she is doing is actually pure revenge, and she doesn't want her father to think that she is such a person, which will reduce her father's trust and expectations of her, which means that she is overdrawing what she can get in the future.
And Shu Yun knows very well what her biggest reliance is.
"Are there any other options?" She finally held back.
Mo Jiangwen was a little disappointed, because if Shu Yun agreed to this proposal, then he would not have to delay Ma En's time, and this would make it easier for him to seduce Chen Yun into depravity, after all, it would not be a good thing for her to know that he was dealing with her brother.
In fact, the price he said did not even include his own profit, and this was already the bottom line that he could do as a devil. If the price was reduced a little bit, it would be better for him to die directly.
Mo Jiangwen cleared his throat and said:
"There is one more thing. In fact, we are encountering other problems now. If you are not willing to accept this plan, we may encounter some obstacles that you understand. We have tried to solve these obstacles before, but encountered some difficulties.
"I am now considering other solutions to this. If you are willing, you can..."
Shu Yun suddenly glared and scolded:
"Shut up, don't you know you can't say it?"
Mo Jiangwen didn't take her words to heart at all, and said with a smile:
"Don't worry, Ms. Shu Yun, I have read your contract. Although it's a bit shameless to say this, I am at least a colleague with the controller who customized the contract, and I know very well how to get around it.
"No, you will not harm Ma En by half a hair."
He directly said Ma En's name, and continued to speak without paying attention to Shu Yun's ugly expression.
"You will pay an additional three times the price. We will delay Ma En and ensure that he feels at home. He will not encounter any harm during the entire process. I can guarantee that the only restrictions he will be subjected to will prevent him from helping the Salvation Alliance.
"According to the contract, this is completely feasible. He should not have interfered in the Federation's affairs in the first place, but you must understand that it may be more difficult to prevent him from being harmed in any way than to kill him, so the price is not low."
Shu Yun asked in disbelief:
"Isn't this what was agreed in your original contract?"
Mo Jiangwen smiled apologetically:
"Yes, you can not pay, and then you will get a compensation, but because this situation perfectly meets clause 7-45, the compensation may only be one-tenth of the original amount. Are you willing to accept it?"
This was a lie. In fact, the compensation would be 90%, but he believed that few customers could understand these complex clauses, and the contract did not require him to not accidentally misreport the amount of compensation.
Shu Yun looked at him with dissatisfaction:
"Fine, but write into the contract that you can't make me violate the truce."
Mo Jiangwen nodded:
"Okay."
The purpose of doing this was also to fulfill his own desires.
The Federation would not harm Ma En.
But he would.
At least according to the standards of the contract, corrupting Chen Yun would also count as harming Ma En.
Watching Shu Yun slowly dissipate, he revealed a painful expression.
Three times was just the base price for completing this task; the specific price would be reported to him after completion, so he would likely have to dip heavily into his own savings to complete this transaction. He only said that to get Shu Yun to agree.
He had even regretted it the moment he said the price, but he hadn't gone back on his word because the final price hadn't been set yet—that was the only belief supporting him.
They were right, doing this was indeed worse than death for a devil, but his love for Chen Yun had ultimately and briefly triumphed over his own nature. He could even say that he was willing to die for her.
Of course, he wouldn't really do that.
