「Into the night...」

Jiang Chen lay in bed, asleep, still in a state of mind regulation.

That was when Daphne appeared in his Dream Realm.

Jiang Chen felt puzzled. How did this woman keep appearing in his Dream Realm? She wasn't nearby, so how did she enter his Dream Realm? How did she find his Dreamspace?

Finding someone's Dreamspace was only possible when they were close by.

Could Daphne also be in this world?

Jiang Chen frowned. "How did you find my Dreamspace?"

"I've been in your Dreamspace before, so it's easy for me to find it next time. A Dreamspace is like an independent coordinate within your body, and I can easily locate it."

Jiang Chen was speechless.

Why was this woman pestering him so?

Jiang Chen waved his hand. A table, a teapot, and even teacups appeared beside him. "What brings you to me this time?"

Daphne walked over to pour tea for Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen was baffled. This woman seemed different.

"I need your help now."

Jiang Chen laughed. "You're a Six-Stage Dream Demon. How can I help you?"

"I've been captured."

Jiang Chen was stunned. Captured?

Wait a minute.

Daphne was a Six-Stage Dream Demon and invincible in the Dream Realm. Even Jiang Chen, with his Hundred Times Amplification, might not have been able to defeat her there. However, she was very weak in the real world.

This meant she had been captured in the real world.

Jiang Chen chuckled, "You really are unlucky."

Daphne sighed. "Yes, I am indeed unlucky. That's why I've come to you for help. I hope you can intervene and save me."

Jiang Chen smiled and remained silent.

Her getting captured is a good thing! What does that have to do with me? Are we friends? This woman disgusted me before, and now she wants my help? I don't do things for nothing. Is she hoping I'll help her as thanks for sparing her life back then?

"I know it's a lot to ask for your help, but you're the only one who can. I've considered others, but none of them are viable options."

Jiang Chen teased, "And why do you think I would definitely help you?"

"I believe we are friends."

"I don't have friends who disgust me."

"Do you know who captured me?"

"Do you think I'm interested in knowing that?"

"The one who captured me is none other than Gresham, the Son of God."

Jiang Chen was perplexed. How did Gresham get involved in this? But aren't you allies?

Daphne explained, "Back then, I was under orders to come with the Incubus to assist Gresham. The initial plan was for me to deal with you."

"You know what happened afterward. I didn't attack you; instead, I left with Annie."

"Clearly, this defied Gresham's orders."

"So, he captured me and Sealed my powers. Now, I have no ability to kill anyone, only the power to alter the Dream Realm."

Jiang Chen pondered.

It was true that this woman hadn't moved against him back then. But that didn't mean he was grateful enough to rescue her. There was no conflict between them, but there was also no mutual benefit. She was clearly in Gresham's hands now. And Jiang Chen had no confidence he could deal with Gresham.

Jiang Chen stood up. "I think you've come to the wrong person. I have no way of dealing with Gresham. You should know he's a Son of God."

Daphne nodded. "I know. He didn't kill me; instead, he sold me to the black market."

"What?"

"You guessed correctly. He sold me to the black market for his own gain, and I'm to become a victim of the nobles. You just need to buy me back."

"I promise you, once I'm released, I'll help you trap Gresham. You kill him and take his equipment. You know Gresham is a Son of God; his equipment is extremely valuable. And it's not just his equipment, but his identity."

"If you take his head to the Alliance of All-Gods, you'll be promoted and highly valued."

"I know your goal: to make your woman a God."

"But becoming a God isn't as simple as you think. Her current identity must not be revealed; otherwise, it would be a disaster."

"Only after your status has been Upgraded can you help her. I will be your ally within the Dark Battle Camp and provide you with intelligence. What do you think of this proposal?"

Jiang Chen pondered.

The proposal was excellent: kill Gresham, the Son of God. His head would certainly be of a high Level. And Gresham's equipment would undoubtedly be top-tier—certainly Legendary Equipment, the absolute best available. That was equipment worn by a Son of God! Jiang Chen couldn't refuse Daphne's proposal. There were simply too many benefits. Besides, this woman knew Angelina's identity. If captured, she might reveal it for her own gain. That was a significant possibility. Clearly, Daphne had considered this too. She just hadn't said it aloud.

Daphne had indeed thought of this. She hadn't mentioned it because she didn't want to threaten Jiang Chen, knowing it would only further shatter their already fragile relationship.

Daphne wasn't a foolish woman; she had naturally considered this.

The two made eye contact.

Jiang Chen nodded. "I can help you. But I'm concerned—how will you trap Gresham?"
