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

Lu Ye clenched his fist slightly, not even noticing that the remaining rice seeds in his hand were being crushed.

"What exactly did he do?"

That rabbit-eared girl was actually a virgin from the Ancestral Demon Cave. The High Priest was old, but he still retained some of the habits of the ancient great cultivators, such as liking to keep small animals.

Human powerful beings also like to raise boys and girls, because they are cute and lively. This rabbit-eared girl was born from the Ancestral Demon Cave and has been patrolling the entire demon forest for the High Priest ever since.

The bunny-eared girl found it a little difficult to say...

But when facing the high priest, one still has to say what needs to be said!

"High Priest, he... he led his demons to seize the caves of other demons, and then sold them at high prices, promising to unconditionally protect the ownership of the caves for seventy years. That snake called this property rights."

"At the same time, he also included an additional third of the land outside the cave dwelling for sale. If you didn't buy it, you couldn't buy the cave dwelling. He called it 'shared area'..."

The high priest's face grew increasingly dark...

But the bunny-eared girl continued to speak, indicating that this matter was not over yet.

"Moreover, I discovered that the snake can actually read. It can even draft master-servant contracts! It coerces and entices ordinary creatures to sign master-servant contracts with it, either to help it farm or to do other chores."

"Now there are hundreds of beings who have signed the contract! These beings have inexplicably become his servants."

"In addition, he used that spirit rice to brew wine and make a fortune. His wine was even sold in the territory of fourth-order demons! Some fourth-order beings risked violating ancestral rules to personally set foot in the territory of third-order demons in order to obtain a jar of wine."

"The snake took this opportunity to befriend fourth-tier beings, addressing those in the mid-stage of the fourth tier as 'fellow Daoist' and those at the peak of the fourth tier as 'brother,' and moreover..."

The high priest closed his eyes in anguish.

After neglecting it for a while, I had planned to throw that little thing into the demon forest to train it, and then bring it back to raise it properly and personally once it had experienced the hardships of the world.

This will surely allow the demon race to produce another powerful demon comparable to, or even surpassing, the level of a demon king!

But how long has this free-range system been in place? The sky is falling!

"And what?"

The rabbit-eared girl said cautiously, "Moreover, he has already started using the resources he gets from selling wine to buy cave dwellings in fourth-tier demon territories."

"Damn it!!"

Lu Ye's chest heaved violently.

A small snake! Where did it get such power?! And... how are you going to punish it? It didn't break any rules...

But if he continues like this, the existence of the Demon Forest will lose its meaning, and so will the competition! Even the ancestral rules of the Demon Forest will become a laughing stock.

"High Priest, please calm your anger! Please calm your anger!" The rabbit-eared girl knelt and kowtowed gracefully: "This servant will go and bring him back to you immediately."

"No need."

Lu Ye suddenly calmed down.

If the rabbit-eared girl dared to look up, she would surely see that on Lord Deer's face, which was as black as the bottom of a pot, there was not anger in his eyes, but rather a very clean and pure smile.

"Let the eldest go; she can handle this snake."

Upon hearing this, the rabbit-eared girl was shocked: "Young Miss? But her identity..."

"What's wrong with her identity?"

Old Master Lu looked calmly at Rabbit-Eared Girl, but Rabbit-Eared Girl was immediately terrified and broke out in a cold sweat.

"No...no..."

Master Lu stood up and put his hands behind his back.

That hunched back seemed to support the entire sky!

"Humans bully her, demons abandon her, but I... am willing to show her mercy." The high priest said, his eyes shining with a firm and loving light, and also with pity.

"For this reason alone, she is no less than any other living being! She has every right to live uprightly in this world."

"Yes, I understand." The rabbit-eared girl kowtowed again and then withdrew.

A single gust of wind blew by, stirring the golden rice in front of him and releasing its fragrance.

"That little thing is really interesting. I hope that in the future... he can take care of her a little out of consideration for our fellow disciples."

A hint of sadness flashed across Old Master Lu's eyes: "This old man... it seems, doesn't have much time left."

"The race needs a being truly recognized by all living beings, a being powerful enough to suppress the race. Will it be you?"

He looked up at the not-so-bright sky over the demon realm: "I really can't bear to leave, I really... can't let go."

Behind the Ancestral Demon Cave, at the foot of a mountain in a beautiful, secluded place surrounded by a stream, sits a solitary little house.

In front of the house, a female cultivator dressed in a light blue dress was gently combing her slightly damp long hair with a wooden comb by the stream. The birdsong was pleasant, and the female cultivator's beautiful face was reflected in the water, only to be quickly washed away.

If Li Xiaobai were here, he would definitely recognize this as the Demon Selection Ground, the little girl who tricked him twice! Her name is Xi.

The rabbit-eared girl bowed, her expression respectful yet distant.

Yes... In this entire demon race, apart from her master, no other being has ever regarded her as one of their own.

"That little snake actually succeeded."

Unlike the aloof appearance of the female beauty, her voice was soft and sweet.

"Yes, Miss."

The rabbit-eared girl respectfully said, "The High Priest summons you to bring Junior Uncle back. Don't let him continue his misdeeds."

Junior Uncle?

Xi Mei's eyes trembled slightly.

That's right, that little snake was also taken in by the master, isn't it the little junior uncle of the demon race?

He was the master's first disciple, yet he wasn't even addressed as "uncle" by any demon. His treatment was truly enviable.

"Okay, I understand. Thank you."

Xi stood up, and before she could finish speaking, she had already disappeared.

She was undeniably beautiful, and having inherited the mantle of the High Priest, she possessed immense power! She treated other demon beings with coldness but never harshness.

But the demon race, including the rabbit-eared girl, simply looked down on her; the human race's statement about "for my kind" was correct.

Even among the entire demon race... very few beings know of her existence.

"What's so great about it?"

The bunny-eared girl curled her lip in disdain.

"That snake... um, Junior Uncle is a native demon! A giant snake! Once he fully takes over the mantle of High Priest, what chance will you have?"

Recalling Li Xiaobai's outrageous antics, the bunny-eared girl blushed slightly.

It's truly rare to see someone so good-looking among the entire demon race...

Meanwhile, the beautiful serpent was in seclusion in a carefully selected cave.

This was his third serious seclusion since he came into this world.

Of course, it was a bittersweet experience.

There was still a pile of clothes lying on the ground.

My bloodline has successfully evolved from a python into a boa constrictor!

Li Xiaobai, with the entire snake buried in his clothes, stared at his enormous body, which was 39.8 centimeters long, and fell into deep thought.
