It was precisely because of this that he was shocked by Luo Yan's ruthlessness.

Truly worthy of being the Lord of the Great Graveyard!

He shows absolutely no mercy even to his own people!

"This is simply fraud!" The demon lady standing next to him complained indignantly, "This group of privileged guys are always like this! They don't treat other demons like demons at all!"

On the surface, she was criticizing Luo Yan, but in fact, she was venting about Mia from the same office.

Walsh, hearing this, burst into laughter, his arms crossed in front of his chest, as he spoke amidst the astonished looks of his partners.

"You've got it wrong, demons are meant to not treat other demons like demons... I'm actually starting to admire this guy more and more!"

Although not a demon himself, he was more demonic than the demons!

At the same time, on the distant planet of Kao, in a gloomy old castle atop a mountain, a green-skinned Beastman appeared out of nowhere in the center of a Teleportation Array.

Sano shook his head, supporting himself on the ground to stand up, and nearly staggered into a nearby pillar.

It was his first experience traveling through a Teleportation Array, and it felt like his head was bagged and thrown into darkness before being kicked repeatedly by a donkey.

He never wanted to have such an experience again, preferring the bumps of ships and carriages over that excruciating anxiety.

Sano, steadying himself against the wall, surveyed his surroundings, struggling with the churning stomach acid, trying to make sense of the situation before him.

This seemed to be the interior of a castle, where the murky sky was vaguely visible through the gloomy windows, only much dimmer than the sky he remembered.

Next to the Teleportation Array, besides the mercenaries who, like him, were staggering out of the portal, he also saw several robed Lizardman Monks.

And not far from the Teleportation Array stood a granite statue, which seemed to be the Demon King he had seen previously at the Slave Market.

Many Skeleton Soldiers and various kinds of demons bustled below the statue of the Demon King, making creaking noises.

What kind of place had he come to?

This place didn't seem like it was underground, but it didn't resemble the surface either.

"...Have I arrived? Is this the Great Graveyard?" Sano asked one of the Lizardman Monks with an unsteady voice.

However, the Monk did not answer him, just looked at him lifelessly, then a sinister smile spread across his face.

"Welcome to the planet of Kao."

"Kao... planet?" Sano stared at him blankly, his mouth agape, wondering what expression he should wear.

It was a term he had never heard of, somewhat like a moving star. He tried to grasp its meaning but found it incomprehensible.

The Lizardman Monk did not explain the meaning of the planet to him, since he himself was not very clear about it. He was simply following the orders of the Lord Demon King, saying as a matter of routine.

"This is the Outpost Fortress of the Great Graveyard stationed on Kao Planet; your task is to take charge of the castle's defense. If you have any questions, you can ask me."

Sano had too many questions, not even knowing where to start asking for a moment.

But out of professional integrity, he still instinctively asked the most pressing one.

"Who is our enemy?"

"Chaos." The Acolyte did not conceal anything, answering his question frankly.

Yet, after hearing the Acolyte's response, Sano's face froze on the spot for a moment, with even his green skin losing its color.

"Chaos?!"

"Yes."

The Acolyte nodded, looking at Sano whose eyes were filled with fear, his voice carrying a touch of piety and pride.

"We are standing on the land of Chaos!"

...

After sending Sano Black Hand away, Luo Yan went to a nearby post office to send an urgent city letter to Grien, the senior from the Demon King Management Department, then strolled around the Slave Market a few more rounds.

Unfortunately, it seemed that snatching up the mercenaries the Dragon family didn't want had used up all of his remaining good luck, as he didn't make any further gains along the way and had to leave the bustling market with regret.

In fact, it was quite normal, as the talent market in Demon City mainly supplied the type of talent needed by Demon City, whereas the talent needed by the Great Graveyard could only be found at the front lines.

Perhaps he should take a look at the talent market in Shattered Rock Peak.

It was said that the Hell Dwarves had a lot of good stuff, and those Mole People craftsmen under his command had escaped from the domain of the Dwarves.

Just as Luo Yan boarded the "Goliath Car" to return to the Temple on Elm Street, Youyou suddenly transmitted new information.

"Lord Demon King! The 'Crown of Malice' Mercenary Group you hired has arrived at our Outpost Fortress on Kao Planet!"

"So soon?" Hearing Youyou's report, Luo Yan's face immediately showed surprise.

The delivery time was less than two hours!

To be honest, the efficiency of Senior Grien really surprised him. After all, in his recollection, that guy had never seemed to be so proactive, especially when it came to taking responsibility for something—that always meant procrastination, and if not, finding someone to take the fall.

It was clear to see that the invasion of Chaos seriously put the Demon King Management Department on the back foot, resulting in significant pressure on the Deputy Director.

"Indeed quite fast, Youyou herself was startled," the floating Youyou kept chattering nonstop next to Luo Yan.

Ever since the Acolytes of the Great Graveyard moved the newly carved Demon King Statue to the Outpost Fortress on Kao Planet, Luo Yan's "Divine Domain" unexpectedly extended there as well, including the Outpost Fortress within it.
