...

"My power is gone! My power!"

"Waaaaah, what's going on?! Fifty percent of my cultivation!"

"Quickly! Go find Lord Ashert!"

"We think we've been scammed!"

...

The shadow guards cried out incessantly, their hearts filled with fear, as if they were experiencing immense pain.

Not long after.

A dark shadow with two horns on its head and an immense aura emanating from its body loomed over them.

It floated down from the sky, and wherever it passed, countless demons knelt down and prostrated themselves.

A powerful aura was subtly revealed, and tens of thousands of shadow guards knelt down.

"An S-rank powerhouse!"

Such a powerful monster would be a formidable force even in the Eternal Night Hell.

"Lord Ashert, help me!"

"Master! Please seek justice for us!"

"We've been scammed!"

...

Cries and shouts rang out.

Asilt looked at his subordinates, and his face instantly darkened.

It had only been gone for a day when its subordinates began to weaken one by one.

"What happened?"

Its gaze fell upon the group of shadow guards, and it was utterly shocked.

Each of the shadow guards seemed to have had their cultivation drained; one second they were plump, and the next they became shriveled.

The scene was extremely spectacular.

Even Ashert, who had seen the world in the eternal night hell, couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine and swallow hard.

The shadow guard quickly recounted what had happened.

Ashert was even more dumbfounded, looking at his subordinates with a suspicious gaze.

A large hand reached up and pinched the shadow guard's neck.

"Ignoring the bonds of contract and stealing your power, do you think I'd believe you?"
