Redemption of a Born Demon

Chapter 212 - 195: Repaying Favors and Grudges, The Body Is Power and Influence (3)

Yi Beidou said calmly.

Although he was talking about an eye, he pointed to the spot between his eyebrows.

Kondo Yasushi tensed at the sight.

’A third eye? The Eye of God? A Sixth Sense?’

Countless possibilities instantly flooded his mind, and he was incredibly thankful he hadn’t chosen to defy him.

Otherwise, he and his children would likely have died the moment he had his men leak Yi Beidou’s whereabouts.

"How is the task I gave you progressing?"

Yi Beidou asked.

"Everything is in order. The video is finished, and I’ve secretly paid several major online influencers and media outlets. The moment the video goes live, they will share it, guaranteeing it instantly reaches a nationwide audience."

Kondo Yasushi replied respectfully, handing his phone to Yi Beidou to play the video, now complete with Japanese subtitles.

"Good. Release it now."

Yi Beidou glanced outside. The timing was perfect, just before the morning rush hour. People would be commuting, making this one of the peak times for social media use.

This would ensure the video had maximum impact.

"Of course. I’ll give the order at once."

Kondo Yasushi nodded, then called over his old butler and gave a few instructions.

A short while later, a notification appeared on his phone, confirming the video had been released.

Influencers with millions of followers began sharing it simultaneously on both domestic and international networks. The video was spreading like wildfire.

"I have completed the task you gave me."

Kondo Yasushi respectfully presented the phone to Yi Beidou.

Yi Beidou glanced at it casually, swiped the screen, and nodded slightly.

"Very good. You’ve kept your promise, and I will keep mine. This is your reward."

A flicker of Demon Flame suddenly flashed in Yi Beidou’s eyes as his finger tapped Kondo Yasushi on the chest, moving faster than the eye could see.

In an instant, a bone-chilling cold surged through Kondo Yasushi’s limbs, making him feel as if he had been plunged into a freezing cavern, unable to move.

Kondo Yasushi’s eyes widened, believing Yi Beidou was about to discard him now that his purpose was served.

The siblings, Kondo Kirihira and Kondo Ayaka, were also stunned. But just as they were about to cry out, a layered, resonant sound suddenly vibrated from within Yi Beidou.

The words caught in their throats as their bodies began to move uncontrollably, twisting into various postures.

And this was not a simple matter of mobilizing their qi and blood, like what Qian Haochuan and the others experienced. Yi Beidou’s Demon Flame permeated their bodies, consuming the power of his own Life Magnetic Field to stimulate theirs. The effect was one of cleansing their marrows and solidifying their foundations.

Should either of them wish to pursue the Martial Arts Dao in the future, they would now have a far superior foundation to start from.

This was Yi Beidou’s payment. He was a man who repaid every debt, whether of kindness or malice.

「About fifteen minutes later.」

The Demon Flame flared, and before the three of them, Yi Beidou’s figure vanished into thin air. Only his voice was left, echoing in their minds.

"The matter is settled and the payment has been made. We have no further connection."

The icy cold within their bodies receded. They regained their ability to move, only to find they were drenched in sweat.

Kondo Yasushi felt a lightness throughout his body. Despite a sleepless night filled with terror, he felt no fatigue. On the contrary, he was brimming with energy, and it seemed as if some of his chronic ailments had vanished.

Kondo Kirihira and Kondo Ayaka, too, felt a sense of profound comfort.

"Father... I feel like my body has undergone some kind of unknown change."

Kondo Kirihira said with excitement.

"Me too."

Kondo Ayaka nodded in agreement.

Kondo Yasushi took a deep breath.

’He had thought that having this man show up on his doorstep was the worst luck imaginable, a true life-or-death crisis. He never expected it would turn out to be a great opportunity for the Kintos family.’

’But with a being like a Celestial God descending upon Japan, could the nation really withstand his presence?’

"Father, I want to go to Tokyo."

Just then, Kondo Yasushi heard his daughter, Kondo Ayaka, make the request, her eyes filled with anticipation.

Meanwhile, Yi Beidou’s video was spreading rapidly across the internet in Japan, stirring up an even more terrifying frenzy.
