The path to immortality through demonic cultivation begins with devouring snakes to become immortals

Li Xiaobai: "Huh? It actually works!!"

Pheasant, Gan An, Gong Baiwan: "..."

No way! I can't give Li Xiaobai any more handprints. This snake can read! And it can even draw contracts! If it accidentally gets one, it'll be stuck with it for life.

"Alright, alright, stop howling!"

Li Xiaobai grabbed Ma Hu and patted his chest loudly: "Following Brother Xiaobai, you'll never be shortchanged!"

"You're fucking despicable!" Ma Hu gritted his teeth.

This is clearly a master-servant contract! And a very binding master-servant contract at that!

Even powerful demons of the sixth or seventh rank might not possess something like this, so how could a snake that's not even at the fourth rank have such a thing in its possession...?

"What's so despicable about me? Is stealing someone else's cultivation partner more despicable than you?" Li Xiaobai sneered. "I'm telling you right now, stick with me and you'll have a good life, otherwise!"

With that, he flicked the contract in his hand: "I'll sell you a human to pull a millstone!"

Ma Hu: "…………"

The sky has fallen, and the donkey is numb.

Having defeated Ma Hu, Li Xiaobai naturally took over Ma Hu's business.

During this time, Ma Hu and Shan Ji still didn't get along, but with Li Xiaobai there, neither of the demons dared to do anything excessive.

Ma Hu does indeed have some goods! Li Xiaobai calculated that if he refined them all, he would get more than 30,000 Heavenly Revelation Points!

So Li Xiaobai shamelessly transferred all the items to his own name.

"Um... I really need these right now."

Facing the other four demons, Li Xiaobai scratched his head sheepishly: "But don't worry, everyone! I'll definitely replenish your supplies double soon!"

As for the pheasant, needless to say, he knew what kind of snake Brother Xiaobai was when he was in the Demon Selection Ground. If he hadn't really encountered difficulties, he wouldn't have kept all the benefits to himself.

Gan An and Gong Baiwan had no objections. The Snake family had taken it themselves, and they hadn't helped, so it was inappropriate for them to ask for anything. It wasn't their right to take it anyway.

Ma Hu had even less to say!

He was defeated by a third-tier peak cultivator, so he should admit defeat and accept his fate, right? It's only right that he gives away the resources, not to mention that disgusting contract that's weighing on him.

However, there's one good thing about this snake: he's still letting him manage the restaurant.

And just now! That chicken was showing off to him, saying that Li Xiaobai was the High Priest's disciple! How could he possibly dare to offend him?

"Alright, this time I'll really go all out."

Seeing Li Xiaobai bow with his hands clasped in greeting, the other demons still hadn't gotten used to his gesture.

"Old Donkey, prepare some food and drinks, let's have a drink together and let bygones be bygones!"

"I'll go get it right away." Ma Hu stammered, "Also, my name is Ma Hu."

"Isn't that still a donkey?"

Ma Hu: "…………"

As night fell, the demons had all eaten and drunk their fill. The spiritual energy here was abundant; it had to be said that the south was more prosperous. Ma Hu's restaurant certainly knew how to pick its location.

It's actually only about 80 or 90 square meters. There are some living areas on top, a two-story building that's not aesthetically pleasing at all, but the spiritual energy of the surrounding area is genuinely abundant.

Gan An and Gong Baiwan casually found a room to cultivate, while Ma Hu went to heal his injuries, since only those who had experienced the full force of Li Xiaobai's sword strike would know how deadly it was.

Wei Shanji was still there, drinking and shedding tears, ignoring Li Xiaobai's attempts to speak to him.

Li Xiaobai didn't want to disturb him, so he just silently watched this chicken that was heartbroken. Tsk, who would have thought that he was such a lovestruck chicken.

Until late into the night, the bright moon hung high in the sky.

The pheasant slammed its hand on the table, startling Li Xiaobai, who was refining elixirs and spirit stones.

"Is it acting strangely? Has it caught chicken plague?"

The pheasant looked up at the moon and said, "Sigh, I thought it was because that donkey had a big thing that my prospective partner ran away with him, but today I saw him take off his clothes and change. He's really nothing special."

"Fine, let her run away! Little White, I'm not a disgrace! Tomorrow! Starting tomorrow, I'll completely forget about her!!"

Li Xiaobai paused for a moment, then slapped the table twice.

The pheasant turned its head and looked at Li Xiaobai with a puzzled expression.

This guy grabbed a medicinal herb root and held it to his lips like a microphone, his voice three parts hoarse and seven parts deep affection:

"Why was I so foolish back then, wanting to marry her so badly?"

"It's because you love her so deeply that you resent her! Even if you can't bear to part with her, just cut ties!!"

"That's a cliff with no way back."

Upon hearing Xiao Bai's heartfelt performance, Shan Ji was initially stunned, and then... his eyes welled up with tears again...

"Awooo~ Damn it! How could this happen? I've been so good to her..."

A smile appeared on Li Xiaobai's lips as he continued to gather resources and begin refining them.

Tsk, you're so pathetic, I almost let you recover.

It's nothing serious. It'll be tough for a while, but you'll be more resistant to it next time. You can get over it by drinking for half a day, but that's nothing.

Despite his handsome face, the lifelong bachelor Li Xiaobai thought to himself, "Oh, innocent little chick, learn from this! This is the wisdom of our predecessors."

the next day.

Gong Baiwan and Gan An were dragged up by Li Xiaobai and stayed by his side.

Ma Hu is recovering from his injuries and won't be fully healed for at least ten days to two weeks. Shan Ji is depressed and will probably take some time to recover as well.

Who else should we turn to if not them?

Of course, having witnessed Li Xiaobai's true strength, they were also very curious about what Li Xiaobai wanted to do.

But not long after...

The two demons' lips twitched violently, both saying, "I was blind! I shouldn't have come along!"

Damn it, this snake! He takes advantage of the fact that most of the demons here are illiterate, and beats down any powerful demon he sees, then forces them to put their handprints on his body!

He managed to concoct so many master-servant contracts in one night?!

Moreover, most of these demons are decent-sized demons who live peacefully in their caves and territories, and are good-natured demons who live a quiet life!

Isn't Li Xiaobai just bullying the common demons...?

They even dragged the two of them into it.

"Little White... Fellow Daoist Little White." Gan An blushed, "This is probably not a good idea. Even if you are the High Priest's disciple, you can't do this."

"If this gets reported to higher authorities, the High Priest will be unhappy."

Gong Baiwan also held Li Xiaobai in utter contempt.

That's utterly shameless.

The demons in our Demon Forest never bully the weak! But he's the opposite; he specifically targets the weak to bully.

"I'm helping them make money."

Li Xiaobai clapped his hands.

The God of Agriculture's rice seeds have finally been distributed, and he found such a large tract of fertile land! Dozens of decent third-tier demons are taking care of them! A bountiful harvest is just around the corner.

"How did they make their fortune?"

Gong Baiwan was carrying a large leather bag. Li Xiaobai not only wanted other demons to sign contracts, but also wanted to collect a contract fee from them, which was 30% of his wealth.

Besides, they themselves seized the cave dwelling... and from now on they'll have to pay Li Xiaobai rent every month...

Li Xiaobai shrugged again: "Let the rich get rich first so that the poor can get rich later. We have to get rich first before they can get rich, right? I'm the one who found the way."
