Chapter 36 : The Demon In The Underground Hell

Yu Peiyu looked most pensive and asked: “Madame, are you asking me to assassinate Mr. Dongguo?”
The woman in black said: “Although ambushing, assassinating are not the way of of people in Wulin, but when we are facing a diabolical menace like Mr. Dongguo we cannot uphold conventional rules anymore.”
Yu Peiyu said: “But......but Jing Ke still failed in the end.”

Chapter 37 : The Yama Book Of Debts

A mistake made in an instant and it keeps haunting one for the rest of one’s life. It is not fair and even wicked. If Yi Kun did not feel remorse he would not have commited suicide. Since he did feel remorse why can’t we forgive him?
Yu Peiyu was saddened and said softly: “I was wrong......I am wrong.....”

Chapter 38 : Fortuitous Occurrences

At this point he could not control himself anymore and blurted out: “Are you Mr. Dongguo?”
The name [Mr. Dongguo] is filled with a sense of mystery and Yu Peiyu was a bit shocked too when he said that name.
The old man laughed: “In face we are old friends too, don’t you recognize me anymore?”

Chapter 39 : The Beginning Of Chaos

Mr. Dongguo was stunned and asked: “What are you suggesting here?”
Dongguo Gao said: “On our way here, we heard that the contents of the book of debts were already exposed. Is that true?”
Mr. Dongguo laughed proudly: “Since the brat was sleeping I took the liberty of exposing it for him.”
Feng San sighed: “Goodness me! You old fool, what have you done?”
Mr. Dongguo was confused and asked: “What do you mean?”

Chapter 40 : Boundless Evil

She looked at Yu Peiyu with a face full of anger and sorrow and said: “After parting with you for three days one should really re-evaluate that person. This proverb is very true, you have mastered the ephemeral form dexterity haven’t you?”
Yu Peiyu said: “Yes, Mr. Dongguo has taught me this skill.”
Mr. Dongguo said anxiously: “Don’t put the blame on me, little brat. Be careful that she gives me a hit with her pre-heaven seraphic energy.”
