Asmodeaus smiled. It was too easy. So soon his first fish had been hooked. It's like bullying children with magic. Although, that's basically what he was actually doing.
Magic has always been one of those tricky subjects. What is just a trick and what is real? It's blurry. But the summoning ceremony Asmodeaus prepared for Dongfeng Quebai was real magic. Asmodeaus basically infiltrated his thoughts inside of Quebai's mind with high level mental manipulation. Now rather than living in his own body, Quebai will be like someone watching his own body react on it's own. Quebai could never have considered how insidious this would be and the potential misery he would suffer.
The Dongfeng estate had been standing for hundreds of years. They were one of the most established families of Blackiron town, a frontier town located in the Northwest of the Flame Empire, bordering the Bluefire Empire.
Anyway, Dongfeng Quebai cleaned up the pig's blood, book and ceremony materials and ventured out of his room. Today was the day when cultivation resources were distributed. Naturally, after collecting the 5 Qi Refining pills he was allocated this week, he got blocked by two common bullies.
"Qong Ichi, Qong Ni, when have I offended you?!"
Dongfeng Quebai asked with tears in his eyes. They were both Fourth Level Qi Refiners. He couldn't compete with them evenly.
Both are foreign surnames in the Dongfeng Estate, so they are basically servants. However, even servants can act against their masters.
Before Ichi, Ni, or Quebai could do anything Asmodeaus appeared inside Quebai's body and started applauding. "Even though aberrants such as you two are everywhere to be seen in the Abyss, it's rare for such shameless people to appear in this real plane." Asmodeaus was smiling inside his eyes. "You have the qualifications to become my Dogleg One and Dogleg Two." "Be honored, mortals."
Qong Ichi and Qong Ni were confused. They just wanted to snatch some pills. Where did they become doglegs? But as their IQ was lacking they decided to humiliate Dongfeng Quebai. "Quebai, you've finally lost it. Doglegs? You're not fit for even a dog to catch your legs, let alone us. Keep dreaming, brat!"

Asmodeaus smiled and his eyes turned Dongfeng Quebai's eyes into black Spirals. "You've forgotten everything, except loyalty to your new master."
"Yes, master..."
After solving the two bullies/clowns, Asmodeaus and Dongfeng Quebai decided to visit the sister he had always wanted to protect.
"Sister~~" Quebai called out.
"Quebai, big brother~." The little sister responded.
Asmodeaus was happy seeing their reunion. Then he grabbed his hand into the little sister's chest and pulled out her heart.
"Ahh, the taste of blood. And Innocence, virgin's blood."
"My sister is only 10, of course she's a virgin!! Wait, why did you rip her heart out of her chest?!"
Dongfeng Quebai was going ballistic. He just wanted to visit his sister. Now she's lying there dying in front of him. And it's his fault. It was his body who ripped her heart out from her chest.
"Asmodeaus!!!!!!!" Dongfeng Quebai roared.
Asmodeaus smiled. Did he really think that summoning a demon would solve his problems? How naive. Demons summoned like this without proper protocols only follow their desires. Besides, "Now she'll be protected forever. In Death. Nobody will be able to do anything towards her. It's called 'removing the variable.' The most secure way to protect something is to destroy it, so nobody can do anything towards it. You should have specified that you didn't want her destroyed if else."
Dongfeng Quebai's soul started cracking up. "Is your soul disappearing already? I thought we could have had more fun together." The shock of his sister being killed in front of him with his own hands was too much. Quebai coughed up blood. "I curse you, Asmodeaus."
"I know."
Quebai disappeared forever and only Asmodeaus was left in the body. Asmodeaus stretched. "Ahh, it's nice to finally have a body to yourself." Asmodeaus went to the bathroom to clean up the blood on his arm and mouth. "Now I need to figure out how to make up for this body's cultivation." Asmodeaus thought for three seconds. "Of course, using the blood demonic technique, Blood Nerve. Sucking the blood of others to improve your own cultivation is the best. The only drawback is that it is easy to make yourself go crazy if the thoughts of others can affect you. But as a demon lord, does Asmodeaus need to care about the thoughts of mortals? This technique was made for him."
So, awaiting the Dongfeng Manor was an imminent bloodwashing.
