To spawn him you must loot a letter on the ground and take it to the mailbox near the gate to slaughter square.
Possible locations of the letter are (source: Xu-Fu's Pet Battle Strategies):
/way 68.9 54.0 Letter
/way 59.7 40.6 Letter
/way 56.9 50.8 Letter
/way 57.8 36.9 Letter
/way 40.2 10.4 Letter
/way 48.6 24.9 Letter
/way 57.8 13.6 MailboxCheck Xu-Fu for a map of these spawn locations. Be aware the letter is fairly small and can spawn on the ground and behind boxes, lamp posts, etc.
If you click on the mailbox before finding the letter, just return to the mailbox after you find it. When I approached, he did not spawn right away, but when I turned around to backtrack through the dungeon he spawned a few yards in front of it.
Is there any reason to defeat him more than once ever?
