“I’m going to build a synthetic blood factory in Mississippi. You’ll be in charge. You’ll get a five million dollar annual salary and a one percent commission on the factory’s sales. I’ll give you the power. I don’t care about the process, I only care about the results.”
"If you do well, in three years, you can have any house anywhere in the country that you like; in five years, I will give you at least 30% of the factory's shares; in ten years, no matter when or what happens if you die, I can resurrect you and give you eternal life!"
Su laid out his objectives and conditions directly. Sarah Mills was stunned for at least ten minutes before she could process the information, and then hesitantly asked a few questions...
What would happen if I refused?
"Hypnotize me to erase your memories and let you leave."
"What will happen if I don't manage it well?"
"The worst that can happen is death."
"If I do well, can I leave in ten years?" Sarah Mills tentatively asked the last and most crucial question.
Su laughed, her gaze sweeping over Sarah Mills with a half-smile: "Usually, people who work for me are free to leave, but you can't!"
"Either agree and work for me for eternity; or refuse and we shall never have anything to do with each other again."
Most normal people would choose to refuse to leave, but Sarah Mills is not a normal person; she is an ambitious person who only wants to seize any opportunity to climb up the social ladder.
An annual salary of five million, a 1% commission, and in the future, at least 30% of the shares and the freedom to choose any house in the country—these alone would be enough for Sarah Mills to exchange for anything, not to mention an extra life and the chance for immortality!
Who can guarantee that after being rejected, the other person will really keep their promise to erase their memory and let them leave? The worst outcome is death, so why not take a gamble? If you win, your long-held dream can come true overnight, and you might even gain more!
“I agree. From now on, you are my master!” Sarah Mills suddenly stood up and knelt down in front of Su Shi with a thud.
"..."
You're so decisive! You're truly amazing!
In terms of ruthlessness, cruelty, and lack of scruples, Sarah Mills is definitely number one among those currently working for the Su family.
Sarah Mills is someone you should either not use or completely suppress. If she gets the chance to gain power, she'll definitely turn her back on you without hesitation.
She had no chance of gaining power with the Su family. Aside from their various schemes, the mere existence of the Flying Thunder God Mark essentially put her on the guillotine; when she died depended entirely on the Su family's whim.
Chapter 127 The Devil's Deal at the Crossroads
In the desolate outskirts, surrounded by dense woods and overgrown weeds, a sandy crossroads runs through the area. A small wooden bar sits beside the crossroads, looking dilapidated and as if it has been abandoned for a long time.
The black antelope's tires crunched and creaked as they rolled over the sand. Dean and Sam, who had just parked the car, immediately turned pale as they got out.
A rather incongruous scene unfolded in front of the wooden bar: Su was sitting cross-legged on a large black leather sofa, looking at something on his laptop. Behind him stood a young, blonde, sweet-looking girl, holding a large parasol. What was most infuriating was that there was a dog lying at Su's feet? No, not a dog, but a wolf.
"You've finally arrived. I've been waiting for you for ages." Su closed her laptop and greeted the Wen brothers with a smile.
The Wen brothers walked over, and Dean pointed at everything, asking, "What's going on here?"
Su shrugged: "There's nothing I can do. The lives of the rich are just so simple and unpretentious. I'm learning how to be an ordinary rich person."
Listen, listen, is this still human language?
Simple and unadorned? Ordinary and unremarkable?
Dean suddenly felt that having a wealthy friend like Sue wasn't so appealing anymore.
"What did you foresee this time?"
Su said, "Isn't it obvious? It's the Crossroads Demon."
"This case really is related to a demonic deal, so the black dog is the hellhound?" Sam frowned and looked at Dean with some concern.
Dean's face was grim; his father had made a deal with the Crossroads Devil to save his life.
“Yarrow, used in summoning rituals,” Sam said, pointing to the yellow wildflowers by the crossroads, trying to distract Dean.
Dean nodded and shared the intelligence they had with the Su family: "When we arrived, we found a female doctor who had worked here ten years ago, but she has also disappeared."
As he spoke, he turned and walked to the center of the crossroads, squatted down, and pointed at the wolf lying at Su's feet, seemingly trying to lighten the mood.
"Why did you suddenly decide to keep a wolf as a pet? Swoosh, baby, come here and help me dig it up!" Dean pointed to the ground in front of him like he was teasing a dog.
"Huff...huff...huff..." The wolf lying on the ground got up, bared its teeth, stared at Dean, and let out a fierce and angry roar.
Dean chuckled awkwardly, "Looks like it's unwilling. Oh well, I'll do it myself. Luckily, I was prepared."
After saying that, Dean turned around and went back to the car, took out a shovel from the trunk and started digging.
Su bent down and stroked the wolf's back: "You can bite him, just don't kill him."
"Wow, really? I didn't say anything." Dean turned around and joked when he heard this, but as soon as he turned around, he saw the wolf pounce on him. He was so scared that he dropped the shovel and ran away.
We can't just leave without throwing a shovel. This is Su's dog, no, it's a wolf. We usually joke around like that because we're good men. But you're actually going to use a shovel?
Dean remembered very clearly how much the Su family had helped them. Leaving aside the warnings, just killing the Yellow-Eyed Demon made them their family's benefactors. Men, you know, can't bring themselves to say those mushy words of gratitude; they'll see how things go in the future.
Well, Sue doesn't know what Dean will do in the future, but right now his actions are really flexible.
In the wilderness, on the sandy path, Dean was being chased frantically, running around in a panic, trying to get the wolves behind him to stop chasing him. But this time, his sense of humor didn't find its target. Trying to be humorous to a werewolf? Haha... He must have never been chased by wolves before.
Finally, Dean, panting heavily, sat on the ground with his hands raised: "I surrender, I surrender. You must be a male, otherwise you wouldn't be chasing me so relentlessly if I'm so charming."
Even if you're amazing, there's nothing I can do to save you.
Su clearly saw that Richie Naylor, who was about to turn back, turned around and bit her as soon as she heard those words.
Of course, this bite wasn't very deep.
Dean knew that he was deliberately letting the Su family off the hook and pretending to be in a sorry state while being chased. How could Ricky Neller not see that he was a friend of the Su family? It's already good enough that your boss is willing to let you vent your anger. It's just joking around, so no one gets hurt or loses face. You really expect to kill the other party?
Even though werewolves are usually single-minded, they're not so stupid as to not think about anything when it comes to their own lives.
Ricky Naylor lay down next to Sue, and Dean picked up the shovel and continued digging. The atmosphere was much more relaxed after the commotion; at least Sam wasn't as worried, and Dean himself wasn't as bitter and resentful as before.
A thing that looked like a metal lunchbox was dug out of the ground. Dean opened it and found a few bones and a bottle of soil inside.
“I bet it’s graveyard soil.” Sam glanced at the soil in the bottle, then looked at the bone in Dean’s hand: “A black cat bone.”
Dean said, "It's an inland Voodoo method used to summon demons, and more than one at that."
“We need to find out who made the deal with the devil,” Sam said worriedly.
Dean scoffed: "We're going to clean up after these people? They're not clean themselves. Nobody's holding a gun to their heads and forcing them to make a deal with the devil."
"So we're just going to watch them die?"
"Someone is courting death, and you're going to jump in and save them?"
"Dean?"
“Alright, alright, so you have to put your own photo in this kind of ceremony, right? Then this person might have made a deal.” Dean took out an old, one-inch photo from the tin box. “We can check if anyone recognizes him, if he’s still alive.”
With that, Dean walked toward the Su family: "What do you think?"
"I'll sit and watch?"
"..."
Dean rolled his eyes. "I meant making a deal with the devil."
“That was the only way your father could save you back then. In fact, if I hadn’t killed the Yellow-Eyed Demon, he would have saved you in the same way, only the trade partner would have been the Yellow-Eyed Demon instead of the Crossroads Demon.”
Whether it was provoking Ricky Neller earlier or arguing with Sam just now, there was only one reason for Dean's unusual behavior: he still couldn't let go of the fact that his father had risked his life to save him.
"Can you help me?" Dean gritted his teeth and looked at Su Shi. At that moment, his tough exterior resembled that of a child with nowhere else to turn.
"You want to make a deal?" Su guessed Dean's thoughts.
Dean nodded: "You said before that if I died, Sam shouldn't worry, someone would save me, right?"
“Yes, this is what was going to happen.” Su realized why Dean had suddenly come up with the idea of making a deal with the devil.
It has to be said, he thrives on a little encouragement, but this is indeed a good method.
Chapter 128 Dean's Resurrection Cheat and My Fame in Hell?
Dean, or rather the Winston brothers, are not afraid of death at all, because their protagonist aura is a gift from God.
God loves writing and is an author. The evil forces are a story created by God, and the Wen family duo are the protagonists in God's writing.
As the author of the entire story, God manipulates everything about Dean and Sam. To make the plot more exciting, thrilling, and captivating, God arranges for everyone who comes into contact with the two protagonists to die one by one for different reasons.
Simply put, God just wanted to write a compelling story. Dean Sam's feelings, heaven and hell, and the like—God didn't care about humanity itself.
God wrote countless drafts and created countless parallel worlds, but discarded them all. Later, He almost destroyed all the other parallel worlds. Only the story of the main world was the one that God was most satisfied with, and He has always been paying attention to it. He even went so far as to help the two brothers when they encountered great difficulties on several occasions.
However, God ultimately messed things up, and his death seemed inevitable; it was just a matter of how he died.
Although God created the world and all things, He also has to abide by rules. And there are many beings in the same league as God, such as Darkness, Nothingness, and Death Knights, all of whom have their own rules and must abide by them.
When people die, they go to heaven or hell; when monsters die, they go to purgatory. But where do angels and demons go when they die? They enter the void and slumber.
As for what the current world of the American TV series is like, Su Shi doesn't know either. He also doesn't know whether he, as a transmigrator, is within or outside the rules. He can only investigate step by step.
Getting back to the point, Dean's decision to sacrifice his life for his father is not wrong. John's insistence will prevent Lucifer's first seal from being broken for a long time, which is a situation that neither angels nor demons want to see. Therefore, Dean going to hell is actually something that everyone is looking forward to.
Since Dean is going to hell sooner or later anyway, why not go down there willingly and resurrect his father? Once the seal is broken, Cassidy will bring Dean back, and the Winston brothers will start fighting Lilith, Lucifer, and Apocalypse.
One is the body Lucifer chose from childhood, and the other became Michael's body because of their family bloodline. Can they die?
Of course not!
The two brothers died many times and went to heaven many times while fighting demons, but they were resurrected and had their memories erased. So during this period, the Wen brothers were like having a resurrection cheat code, so they could do whatever they wanted without any problems.
The night is as dark as ink.
Dean sat by the crossroads, drinking beer with a heavy heart. On the sofa next to him, Su Shi, with his Sharingan activated, was watching martial arts tutorials and action movies on his laptop.
Glancing at Dean, Su put down her computer: "Worried about Sam?"
Dean nodded.
"As long as we act quickly, there won't be any problems with Sam."
During the day, Dean decided to make a deal with the devil to get his father back. At first, Sam strongly opposed it, but Dean was determined after receiving a guarantee from Sue. He reasoned with Sam and what could Sam do but reluctantly agree?
On the one hand, he couldn't argue with Dean, and on the other hand, he trusted the Su family.
Then, Sam went to investigate who else had made a deal with the Crossroads Demon, intending to take this opportunity to rescue them all.
