Surviving the Apocalypse Is Easy: Just Raise a Demon Lord

Blurb:

The apocalypse arrives. Zombies run rampant, and everyone is fighting for their life.

Xiang Tian has always been cautious, but through his binoculars he sees a man in elaborate clothing walk barefoot across a mountain of corpses. With a flick of his fingers, the man controls the zombies, yet not a speck of dust clings to him.

Watching him, Xiang Tian's heart begins to pound.

He doesn't want to get mixed up in trouble, but in the next instant, a sinister wind rushes at his face, and his instincts tell him something is wrong.

He looks up, and a black-lipped man suddenly appears right before him, looming over him.

"Found you."

Xiang Tian is stunned.

The man grabs his wrist, his voice tender and utterly serious:

"I am your master, and I am your Black River Demon Venerable."

Xiang Tian thinks the man is joking.

After all, Ji Chen latched onto him because the spots on Xiang Tian's head looked like his name. In time, Xiang Tian begins to want to protest.

But when Ji Chen raises a hand and drains the energy from every zombie on the street, then clears the entire zombie horde for him,

Xiang Tian silently swallows his objections.

Fine. You're strong, so you make the rules.

If you want me as your pet, so be it. Surviving the apocalypse comes first. It's no big deal.

The two team up, with Ji Chen handling the outside while Xiang Tian stays behind the scenes.

Other leaders throw their weight around, but Ji Chen dotes on him to an alarming degree.

Xiang Tian wants to build infrastructure, so the Demon Venerable clears an entire plain for him overnight.

Xiang Tian wants to save the slaves, so the Demon Venerable turns around and topples the slave island, granting his wish.

Xiang Tian wants to save the world, so the Demon Venerable splits mountains, diverts rivers, and builds roads and bridges for him.

Whatever he wants, whatever he hopes for, Ji Chen makes it happen.

The two stand at the top of the apocalypse. The whole world is jealous of this invincible loyal dog. Even robots and humans want to cry and beg to become his master.

Ji Chen gazes at him and wraps an arm around his waist.

Their silhouettes overlap, and beneath the sunlight, they are inseparable.

"I don't want anyone else."

"I only want you."
