Do not engage in underworld operations in the human world!

Jiang Lu could understand Asmodeus's feelings. If he compared this feeling to himself, it was as if, although he was the lord of the underworld, it seemed that any random person had much higher attainments in management than him.

He had also been in this state of confusion for a long time.

Why is he invincible and good at everything, but not good at management?
Is this some kind of punishment for perfection?

But later he figured it out. A manager doesn't necessarily have to understand management. As long as he knows how to use people, then all the miscellaneous matters can be left to the people below to handle.

The same reason.

"Must the lustful demon understand lust?"

Jiang Lu suddenly asked.

"Eh?" Asmodeus raised his head, his eyes full of confusion: "If a lust demon doesn't understand lust, why is he still called a lust demon?"

"No, no."

Jiang Lu shook his head:
“Just like Lanzhou beef noodles don’t necessarily have beef, and wife cakes don’t necessarily have wives, a lustful demon doesn’t necessarily have to understand lust.

Before I explain in detail, I want to ask you, you just mentioned that your career is not as good as my hobbies, does this make you feel confused?"

"Yes."

"But have you ever thought that careers are boring in themselves? Even if you like something, when it becomes a job, day after day, you will always get tired or even bored."

Jiang Lu said earnestly:

"But I am different. I love it, and it is something I do to adjust my mood besides my job. This makes lust for me even more than what you call a hobby. It has become a kind of spiritual food, a brick and tile to enrich my spiritual world.

So your lack of understanding stems from a lack of passion. If you really love something, you will be willing to spend time delving into it. As the saying goes, interest is the best teacher. Once you are interested in understanding something, you will naturally become more and more proficient in it.

So I say, a lustful demon may not understand lust, but must have a love and yearning that transcends ordinary people. This represents a kind of pursuit and a kind of ingenuity.

As long as you have this heart, you can even be a virgin who knows nothing about lust. As long as your love for it surpasses everyone else, that's enough.

You can definitely find someone who understands to help you do things, leave the troubles of work to them, and leave the joy of exploration to yourself. In this way, sooner or later, one day, you will be able to surpass everyone until you see the end of lust!"

Jiang Lu’s speech was so deafening that it not only stunned Asmodeus, but also made Samael fall into deep thought.

"So, I can also let others be angry for me, and I just need to enjoy the pleasure of violence, right?"

"That's not necessarily true." Jiang Lu shook his head: "I once joined a letter club, but I was kicked out after only one month because they found out that I was not an S. I just simply liked to beat people up."

"Is there any connection between the two?" Even Lucifer couldn't find the connection between the two for a moment.

"The husband of the person I beat was a little furious." Jiang Lu explained lightly: "In short, what I want to say is that when we treat our hobbies as work, they will leave us one day, but when we treat them as our life and love them as our relatives, even if we know nothing about them, they will not let us down. One day, we will all become masters!"

“Master!” Asmodeus stood up, as if he had received a spiritual baptism, as if he had been redeemed from the abyss, his whole body was glowing: “I understand!”

Although he did not learn more about lust from Jiang Lu, Asmodeus still felt that he had gained a lot.

He firmly believed that he loved lust, and the problem now was that he had embarked on the wrong path. But there was still time to correct it. As long as he stopped treating it as his job in the future and stopped using fixed routines to persuade mortals to commit adultery, and added some thought and creativity, he might be able to discover more fun.

Isn't the man standing opposite him the same? Is he born a lust genius? He also explored step by step. It was those seemingly insignificant changes, those serious choices between coping and being serious, that laid the foundation for his unfathomable lust skills, wasn't it?
At this moment, Asmodeus's attitude towards Jiang Lu has changed from being a scholar who look down on each other at the beginning, to a mutual respect, and then to the current one where he respects each other as his role model.

He threw off the burden of his hellish face that was like a shackle, and admitted from the bottom of his heart that he was inferior to Jiang Lu in both ability and artistic conception.

He let go of all his obsessions and decided to start over as Jiang Lu said, always keeping the heart of an apprentice and moving forward and exploring the path to becoming a master.

"What a pity," he sighed sincerely, "A genius like you was not born in my hell. If there is someone like you in my hell, I am willing to give up my position."

Jiang Lu waved his hand and said calmly: "I am not interested in status. Status is just a recognition and proof of ability. But for me, as long as I can be happy, it is enough. I don't need recognition from the outside world."

"A master is a master." Asmodeus nodded seriously: "It seems that I still have a long way to go."

Samael also expressed his approval: "I really benefited a lot."

Seeing that his two lackeys were almost becoming Jiang Lu's fans, Lucifer couldn't sit still any longer. "Okay, okay, you guys usually don't listen to what I say, but what he says is like good advice. It's getting late, and we should go back. We have a meeting tomorrow morning."

Jiang Lu looked at the time, thinking that he would have to go back and tell Queen Mother Xi and the others about the information gained from this exchange of intelligence, and then make arrangements. They had been waiting for a long time, and it was indeed not advisable to waste any more time here.

So after he agreed on a time with Lucifer, he sent them to the gate of Jiuyou Pavilion to say goodbye.

Lucifer walked in front, Samael shook his head, no one knew what he was thinking about, and Asmodeus looked back every few steps. It was unclear whether he wanted to hear Jiang Lu share more secrets of success and was reluctant to leave so early, or he was worried that Jiang Lu had secretly checked into a hotel without telling him and had more advanced knowledge that he was not passing on to him.

After seeing the three people off, Jiang Lu asked the head of Jiuyou Pavilion to lead the way to the place where Queen Mother of the West and the others were resting.

On the way, Jiang Lu remembered that he had not asked the other party's name. After asking, he learned that the other party's name was Zi Chi, and she was actually a descendant of the dragon clan. Moreover, not only her, but all the senior executives of Jiuyou Pavilion were from the dragon clan. Jiuyou Pavilion was a big dragon's nest.

This was somewhat beyond Jiang Lu's expectations. Although dragons are naturally lustful, directly opening a brothel and providing a one-stop service was still a bit too avant-garde.

No wonder Zi Chi didn't show any sign of sudden enlightenment when he was giving a speech just now. This is the successful model of turning hobbies into careers. Not only are his desires satisfied, but he also makes money without doing anything.

Zi Chi noticed Jiang Lu's surprise and asked, "Master, you seem surprised?"

"No." Jiang Lu explained: "It's just that my memory is a little incomplete now. I really forgot that you are from the dragon clan. But how can the dragon clan be in the underworld?"

"You're still talking!"

Zi Chi muttered upon hearing this:
"The Jiuyou Pavilion was originally opened in the Sanqing Realm. You thought it was troublesome to run back and forth, so you begged your grandmother to move the Jiuyou Pavilion to the underworld. You even said that this is called introducing foreign talents." Jiang Lu felt a little embarrassed when he heard it. It was like looking at the QQ space of an elementary or junior high school student after an adult: "Why does your grandmother post everything?"

"It's not spread, it's written in her diary." Zi Chi replied.

"Hmm," Jiang Lu whispered, "Who would write a diary if they were serious?"

After saying this, he was stunned for a moment and talked to himself.

"Yeah, if I wrote a diary, it seems that I don't have to worry about the memory at that time. It seems that digging out the diary somewhere will directly unlock all the information."

Unfortunately, there is no regret medicine in the world.

And if it happened again, even if he knew what would happen in the future, I'm afraid Jiang Lu still wouldn't write a diary.

Can what he wrote be called a diary? Isn't that evidence to be presented in court?
While he was daydreaming, Jiang Lu met the Queen Mother of the West and others.

Jiang Lu let Zi Chi go and rest first, then closed the door and simply told everyone what he could about the information he got from Lucifer.

After hearing Jiang Lu's words, Daode Tianzun showed a solemn look: "Will this matter affect my Sanqing Realm?"

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

"Probably not in the short term, but it's hard to say in the future." Jiang Lu said: "Human desires will continue to expand. If a world war really breaks out, no one will be immune. Some people have tasted the sweetness of it, and those who did not participate and chose to wait and see will sooner or later be targeted."

"That doesn't make sense, does it?" Daode Tianzun expressed his doubt: "As long as they don't get involved in the dispute, they have no reason to..."

"What reason do you need?"

Jiang Lu found it difficult to understand the naivety of the Lord of Morality:

"The strength of the fist is the reason. Whoever has more people will have the final say. By that time, all the forces that make up the anti-war alliance will be eliminated, but their stomachs are still not full, and they will target you. How can you face so many people alone and without help?

It’s easy to find a reason if you want one.

Aren't you a centrist?
When we form an alliance, you are the only one who stands aside. If you don't join us, aren't you opposing us?

They are not fools. If you don't join the war, they will expect you to reap the benefits. In the end, they might even ask you to jump out and get a piece of the pie?

When the time comes, they will label you as an anti-war faction, and you will have no place to appeal. If you have no one to fight you with, your words will be meaningless. "

“This” left the Lord of Morality speechless.

"But if a fight really breaks out, the Anti-War Alliance won't necessarily lose, right?" Xuannv asked, "Didn't you say that the Yin Emperor also has many internal problems and is not united?"

"Even if the anti-war alliance wins, the result will be the same."

Jiang Lu shrugged:

"When everyone was banding together to survive, you didn't lend a helping hand and watched us suffer. You are worse than the perpetrators. If we beat them away, you will be the next to be held accountable."

Listening to Jiang Lu's words, Scythe thought of a lot of history, nodded, and agreed: "That's true. I can't say it's 100%, but there is a high probability that it will eventually turn out like this. Even if the post-war conditions are not enough to support them to continue to wage war, this will become an irreconcilable contradiction and will explode sooner or later."

"That's it." Jiang Lu spread his hands, looking a little helpless.

In this great turmoil that was happening on a global scale, even he was powerless to stop anything.

"Then if we follow the original plan and kill the Yin Emperor, or drive him away and retake the underworld, wouldn't the problem be solved?" Dong Wanggong suddenly had an idea.

The others reacted after hearing what was said and looked at Jiang Lu with expectation.

But Jiang Lu was not optimistic about this idea.

“This can indeed be solved, and even the war in the underworld can be ended early, but the problem is that there is not only the Yin Emperor in the underworld now, but also many representatives from other worlds.

Although most of them are not likely to be as powerful as Lucifer, having so many gods is still a problem because we cannot ensure that they will not stop us.

You know, even though there may be other people who have the same idea as Lucifer, have uncertain positions, and are just here to join in the fun, there will definitely be more people who are willing to join the alliance and want to get a piece of the pie from the underworld and the Anti-War Alliance.

On the surface, these issues were discussed at the meeting, but I am sure that Yin Di had already won over a large part of the pro-war faction before that, otherwise he would not have held the meeting. Rather than calling it a meeting, it is better to call it a propaganda and a pyramid scheme, the purpose of which is to team up with a group of people who have become his own people and act as a proxy to win over others. "

Nyarlathotep's sinister and cunning face suddenly appeared in Jiang Lu's mind:
"He won't do anything he's not sure of. He will definitely have the initiative in his hands. So in this situation, let alone trying to drive him out of office, I'm afraid that if there are opposing voices at the meeting, those people he has already discussed with will help him and stand with him."

"You have a very high opinion of Yin Di." Hong Yi was surprised at Jiang Lu's objectivity. She thought Jiang Lu would spread the word that Yin Di was a fool, but she didn't expect him to be so rational on major issues.

Jiang Lu didn't explain anything.

"So what's on your mind?"

Queen Mother of the West asked directly. She believed that Jiang Lu must have thought of a solution before putting this terrible situation in front of them.

Jiang Lu did not let her down. He did have a main plan and many alternative plans.

"First of all, we still have to take back the underworld as our main goal. Although the probability of success is very low, we still have to try. If this path doesn't work, then I will try to disrupt the meeting and weaken the alliance as much as possible. It would be best if no one except those centrists would join them in the future.

But if the situation is irreversible, there is really no room for maneuver."

Jiang Lu sighed and said seriously:
"Then I will do everything I can to gather enough intelligence and figure out which side has a higher chance of winning. By then, in the worst case scenario, I can at least save the Three Pure Realms." (End of this chapter)
