Hell's Handbook

Chapter 375

Not long after Xu Ran left, Su Jin decided to talk to Situ Jin and Chu Yi about his plans. He didn’t mind hiding this matter from others, but he wasn’t going to hide it from Situ Jin and Chu Yi.

When he located Situ Jin, he found the man doing his part to serve the nation. He was chasing down a rogue Handbook owner and finally drove the owner into a corner and killed him off.

“Yo!” Su Jin waved to Situ Jin.

Situ Jin was surprised to see Su Jin. He threw the owner’s lifeless body to one side and walked over. “What’s the matter?”

“I need to talk to you.”

“Let me tidy up things around here and we can sit down to have a chat,” said Situ Jin before calling the Department of Supernatural Affairs to clear the mess.

“Let’s go,” said Situ Jin to Su Jin with the intention to find a nice place to sit down. But after Su Jin nodded, he grasped the air with his hand and everything around Situ Jin became a blur. When the scenery around him settled again, he found himself in a city he didn’t recognize.

“Where are we?” Situ Jin was a little lost.

“We’re in Chu Yi’s universe. I think it’s best that we all sit down to talk about this,” said Su Jin flippantly.

Situ Jin stared blankly at Su Jin as he asked puzzledly, “You randomly grabbed the air and you were able to take me to another universe?”

“Yep. I’ll explain things to you in a while.” Su Jin placed a finger on his temples and used his psychokinesis to cover the entire planet. His eyes opened again as he said, “Found him.”

In the middle of rubble, Chu Yi was having a meeting with the resistance army. He joined them after he was revived and became the leader of one team. When he wasn’t stuck in a Challenge, he was fighting with the people from the cult. They were now preparing the strategies and manpower needed for the next day’s battle.

But when they were halfway through, Su Jin and Situ Jin suddenly appeared in front of them. The team with Chu Yi got a shock and immediately got ready to attack. Thankfully, Chu Yi had reacted quickly enough and stopped them from doing anything rash.

“Everyone relax, these are people on our side!” said Chu Yi to his team, before addressing the two men who had appeared, “Boss, Situ… why… why are both of you here?”

“I need to talk to you about some matters, let’s find a place to sit,” said Su Jin.

Chu Yi was okay with that, so he said to the person next to him, “Miss Han, I’ll leave the rest of the meeting to you.”

Su Jin glanced at the person Chu Yi was talking to and realized it was someone he actually knew. It was Han Linmei, the person who had first sent him to Chu Yi’s universe. Han Linmei was surprised to see Su Jin as well. She nodded to acknowledge Chu Yi’s instruction, then said to Su Jin, “Hello, Mr. Su. It’s been a long time.”

Su Jin returned with a polite smile. He didn’t have a good impression of her, since she had effectively laid a trap for him the last time. But none of that really mattered to him anymore. It was easier to just use this smile to end any feud between them.

“It has indeed been a long time. I hope I’m not disrupting your meeting,” said Su Jin.

“No worries, go ahead and discuss what you need! I’ll settle this meeting,” replied Han Linmei with a smile.

Chu Yi brought Su Jin and Situ Jin to a fairly clean place to sit, which was pretty hard to find among all the rubble of the city. Then again, the cult dominating this particular world, so even having a space of their own was a miracle.

“Boss, both of you have specially made a trip to my universe, so I suppose you’ve got something really urgent to discuss?” asked Chu Yi puzzledly after pouring them some water.

Situ Jin shook his head and said, “Ask Jin. I was brought here, so I’m just as clueless as you are.” He shrugged and threw his hands up.

Su Jin went straight to the point, “I went to the Grave of the Gods.”

“Whaaa?” Both of them were even more confused. They were considered relatively high ranking owners, but they had not reached the point where they would start looking for concrete ways to become a god. But as long as they didn’t die in a Challenge, they definitely had what it took to become one.

“It’s a Heaven Level Challenge, a Challenge that gives owners the chance to become a god,” explained Su Jin briefly.

The look in their eyes shifted this time. They had improved greatly, and even though they knew they were no match for those ranked right at the top of the list, becoming a god was definitely on their to do list.

“So, you became a god?” asked Chu Yi immediately.

Su Jin shook his head and laughed, “Nope. Not only did I not become a god, I gave up the rights to become one forever.”

“WHAT?!” Both of them were utterly shocked. It was fine that he failed to become a god, but what was this about giving up the rights to become one forever? What happened?

Of course, Su Jin knew they would be terribly shocked, so he began to explain to them about the will of the universe, the origin of gods, Hell’s Handbook, as well as the path he had chosen to take. It took them a while to digest all the information, and they finally let out a long sigh after some time.

“Sister Mai isn’t dead!”

“So, becoming a god is actually meant to trap and shackle the owners, huh.”

The most important part they drew from what Su Jin said was different for the two of them, but they had understood what he said.

“To put it simply, I’m going to form my own god army to fight with the will of the universe in due course,” said Su Jin, “What do the two of you think? Wanna join my army?”

“You didn’t even need to ask. Of course I’ll be part of it!” said Chu Yi without hesitation.

Situ Jin nodded and said, “I wouldn’t want to live my life only to be enslaved by someone else, so I’m definitely joining you, but…”

He trailed off at the end and Chu Yi immediately glared at him as he demanded, “But what?”

“But… if we join your army, how are we going to revive Bo Ya, Ye Yun, and the rest?” asked Situ Jin.

Chu Yi blinked a few times, then a frustrated expression spread across his face. He clearly hadn’t thought about that. But Su Jin said, “That’s not a problem. Joining my god army basically means you guys have to become gods within the Handbook’s system. As long as you’re willing, I’ll be able to change who you pledge your allegiance to, so reviving Bo Ya and the rest is still going to be possible.”

“In that case, I’m good,” Situ Jin nodded.

Chu Yi rubbed his palms together. “The will of the universe, huh! Fighting such an existence really makes me excited!”

Su Jin laughed and said, “I think you’d better calm down first. Many other talented people have chosen to walk down the same path as myself before, but not a single one succeeded, so… I think it’s better to be a little less hopeful.”

“Well, at least there’s hope if we stick with you. If we end up becoming enslaved by the will of the universe, then our situation would really be hopeless,” said Situ Jin immediately. He paused to think, then said, “The members of Team Boning Knife would definitely support you, but there aren’t a lot of us and I don’t think that’s enough, right? Like you said, there are many other Handbook systems in the universe with all sorts of owners out there. Even if we’re made of steel, I don’t think we can take that many hits.”

Su Jin nodded and said, “I understand. That’s why I will continue to participate in Handbook Challenges and gather more people and resources. We still have time to get ready.”

“I’m glad you’ve got a plan for that,” said Situ Jin with a nod.

Just then, a blast suddenly resounded from afar. A warehouse belonging to the resistance army had been attacked by the cult, so Han Linmei came running over immediately.

“Mr. Chu, the cult has sent formidable fighters to fight us and we might not be able to hold up for long!” said Han Linmei anxiously.

Chu Yi frowned, then he glanced at Su Jin and Situ Jin and broke into a grin. “Boss, Situ, why don’t you be my temps for the day?”

Su Jin laughed and said, “Sure! Your planet faces some nasty foes, so let’s settle this problem once and for all. Otherwise, you’d have to worry about these things even when you’re stuck in a Challenge.”

Chu Yi smiled even more brightly at these words. “That would be great! But the cult leader is a high ranking owner, so I’m afraid they’d be a bit difficult to handle.”

“I’ll settle this in a minute!” Su Jin patted Chu Yi’s shoulder, then walked out as he covered the entire place with his psychokinesis and quickly located all the members of the cult.

“Unarm your weapons and surrender within ten seconds, or… prepare to die!” Su Jin’s voice rang inside the heads of the fighters from the cult, which horrified them. Someone who could send their voices directly into their heads had to be a formidable foe.

“Within ten seconds? I would like to find out who the resistance army has newly recruited! How dare you make such audacious claims!” the cult leader’s voice also rang out in everyone’s heads.
