The area where Axe Bar was located was called Hurin area. Although it belonged to the Seita Empire by name, it was, in actual fact, an area that was unregulated due to the geographical location. Hence, it was also infamous for its crime rate.

Criminals, exiles, the Night Family Clan, and, of course, the Demon Hunters gathered here.

If it wasn't for the deterrence from the Demon Hunters, the entire Hurin area would've become Hell within the mortal world, and would be a hunting ground for the Night Family Clan.

Without a doubt, this chaotic place was a favorite for many dark organizations, and had unimaginable black markets and intelligence channels.

Fang Yuan had now reached the western area, far away from Axe Bar, and was walking amidst a land filled with small shacks.

Behind the creaking doors and wooden windows, there were many greedy eyes scheming against him, but retreated back, awed, when they saw his large sword and gun case.

The residents of Hurin were mostly scum. When one became strong enough, they would show their petty and inferior side, and would be willing to kneel down to lick one's boots clean. However, once the power protecting them was lost, they would transform into a wild beast and snatch everything away to use for their own benefits—including one's body itself!

These words were from an experienced, old Demon Hunter, and Fang Yuan couldn't agree more.

He didn't come here to live, but for intelligence!

The Hurin area had the biggest black market nearby, and it would naturally also have the biggest intelligence chief!

Although his wound had completely healed, he was still very interested in the Masters.

"Moreover… I need to continue learning. The things Hulk had cultivated before were only the basics for a Demon Hunter. He didn't touch any high-end medication, forging knowledge, and advanced Demon Hunter techniques…"

At that moment, Fang Yuan was finally annoyed at those unrestrained gazes.

He glared at them, emitting a shocking murderous intent.

Swoosh!

In a split second, all of the gazes vanished without a trace, and the sound of someone falling over was heard. This kind of fear might follow them everywhere, giving them nightmares forever.

"Hmm?"

Regarding his actions, Fang Yuan was shocked. "Is this the effect of the Evil Demon's presence? Causing me to become hot-tempered…"

Although he had transformed the power of the Evil Demon in his body, his technique was all over the place. If it was done by another Demon Hunter, he would definitely become a Degenerate.

Even if it was him, the remaining presence and effect couldn't be eliminated immediately.

"The Union's Sacred Water, however, has no such problem. It's obvious that they found a sophisticated way of producing it, and also made use of some sort of natural power…"

The opponent was the Night Family Clan, if Demon Hunters only had limited means to fight against them, it'll be an absolute joke.

"One day, I'll go to the headquarters of the Demon Hunter Union!" Fang Yuan pulled his collar up and covered half of his face before he walked into a dark alley.

The alley was different from the chaos outside. Once he was in, Fang Yuan squinted his eyes slightly and felt that there was danger.

It was apparent that the garrison's power here greatly exceeded that of the outside.

He wasn't bothered by it and walked into a provisions shop at the end of the alleyway as if he didn't realize it.

This shop looked the same as a normal one. The only difference was the small door behind the counter.

"Stand still!"

When Fang Yuan wanted to pass through the door, two employed soldiers with rounded waists appeared immediately. "Who are you? Why are you here?"

"I'm looking for Black Jack!" Fang Yuan lowered his voice and said, "The Nightangle from Tenglan introduced me to this place."

"Alright!"

It was obvious that the two soldiers, with murderous intent, had experienced hundreds of battles, and nodded their heads. "You know the rules, don't mess with us!"

Black Jack was an intelligence chief in the black market. Although he wasn't the biggest one, his information was still considered to be reliable.

Of course, the main point was that, based on Hulk's resources, this was the only way.

Fang Yuan naturally used this method.

After all, the thing that he was looking for, or the secret he was searching for was restricted for Demon Hunters. Using the intelligence of the Union would make him no different from an idiot.

After passing the small door, the inside was indeed like another world.

It was a spacious room with a neat wooden shelf that had many precious or illegal objects resting on it. Fang Yuan even saw a repeater gun that Hulk wanted to buy for a long time but was short of cash. The gun's silver body gave off a mysterious glow.

Although Black Jack was a distinguished, fierce name, he was actually a white-haired old man that wore luxurious clothes.

When Fang Yuan saw him, he was behind an office table, smoking from a pipe.

"You're Black Jack?" Fang Yuan furrowed his brows. Although this old man's actions were elegant, it was also lethargic and was completely incompatible with the aura of a black market.

"What? Disappointed? Because Black Jack's such a terrible old man?" Old Jack knocked his pipe and said, "Speak… young man, what do you need?"

"Intelligence!" Fang Yuan continued without any hesitation, "I need to find information on one or a few clans. Their identities are unknown, they're unsocial and hot-tempered, look like they're nuts but are usually pretty wealthy… Of course, they might possess a certain kind of mysterious power…"

"Hmm?" Black Jack had a serious expression. "With these conditions, I can still find a few clans after screening… but I can't be sure that the person you're looking for will be there."

"No problem, you can just give the information to me!" Fang Yuan nodded his head. "Set the price!"

"Hehe…"

Black Jack wasn't in a hurry and smiled. "These conditions… are you looking for a Master clan? Young man, are you… a Demon Hunter?"

Seeing that Fang Yuan tightly knitted his brows, he rushed to explain, "Don't panic… to us, the existence of Demon Hunters and the Dark Realm isn't a secret!"

"Since you know about Masters too, everything is much simpler. Will there be any difficulties for you?"

"Difficulty… Naturally, there will be some, so we can talk about the matter of compensation now…" Black Jack revealed the smile of a profiteer and rubbed his fingers together.

"Are you saying…" Fang Yuan forgot about the fact that he was poor, and his tone was unusually high.

"To me, money is no longer worth anything…" Black Jack sighed once. "I have insider information about the Masters, and it's definitely the latest intelligence. However, to get it, you have to pay a price! For instance… a mission!"

"You want to employ me?" Creases lined Fang Yuan's forehead.

"That's right, I've been caught up in a little trouble recently… and need a professional to resolve it!" Black Jack emphasized on the word "professional", "you'll help me solve it, and I'll give you the information you want! It's a fair trade!"

"I'm a Demon Hunter, not an employed soldier!" Fang Yuan said it intentionally.

"Hehe… That's great because the trouble I have is from the Dark!" Jack shrugged. "Otherwise… do you think that the wolves I have are just vegetarians?"

As if he was afraid that this Demon Hunter might leave, Jack added on, "As long as you help me deal with this problem, I'll even give you a monetary reward, you'll absolutely be satisfied with the amount."

"Give me the information first… If I can confirm that they're the Night Family Clan, I'll accept!" Fang Yuan squinted his eyes. "Also… I want to have part of the reward first!"

"That's impossible! The money will be given when the goods have been received, Black Jack will never go against this principle!" Black Jack almost jumped out of his seat.

"This is my condition!" Fang Yuan squinted his eyes.

His original plan was to use the gun and sword to pay, but judging at how the situation was close to a deadlock, the surrounding bodyguards' hands were already touching their gun cases.

"Al… Alright!" Black Jack facial expression was dark, but it changed after a split second. "I'll agree to your conditions. I hope that you can keep your promise!"

"No problem, we Demon Hunters will definitely keep their promises!" Fang Yuan smiled brightly, revealing a row of white teeth.

After leaving the black market, his face revealed a pensive smile while holding onto a scroll of goat-skin. "This Black Jack… is interesting! Really interesting!"



"All of you, go on!"

In the black market, it was rare that Old Jack didn't continue to smoke his favorite pipe and, instead, dismissed the bodyguards and servants to go alone to the secret cell.

This quiet room was highly confidential, and the number of people around him that knew about it was less than three.

It was filled with all kinds of gold, precious stones, and a huge safe. It looked like a small storage space for gold.

Old Jock felt that way as well, hence, he decided to keep the room a secret.

He dug out a gold pot from a mountain of gold accessories and lit the fire.

"Master… Your servant is here to call you!"

Following a secret ceremony, the flame in the brazier became green as a face faintly appeared on it.

If this was seen by Demon Hunters, then Black Jack would end up on their to-kill list.

This is because he was unexpectedly an idolizer of the dark!

What was called the Idolizers of the Dark were actually believers of the Night Family Clan. They were still humans, had proper identification, and had no history of any blood modification or infections by chaos. Even if they were in front of a Demon Hunter, they couldn't be distinguished.

However, they, in actual fact, act as servants and managers for the Night Family Clan, helping them manage their wealth and assets on the surface, and doing many things that are inconvenient for them.

"Tell me about it!"

The pale human face glowed among the flames, its eyes on Black Jack.

"There's a young Demon Hunter that's looking for the whereabouts of the Master clan. I've already followed Master's instructions and attracted him 'there.' In addition, his identification is also in the database…"

Jack kneeled down modestly as if he was an old dog flattering its owner.

"Very good… If there are still Demon Hunters, follow the plan!" The pale human face laughed. "Jack, my servant! If you continue to serve me, I will fulfill my promise and grant you eternal life!"

"Thank you, my charitable and generous master!" Old Jack was happy; the older a person is, the more afraid he is of death! At his age, he was willing to pay whatever price, even becoming a monster, in order to continue living!Referring to his soldiers
