After Being Possessed By A Witch, I Became An Outlaw

Chapter 102: The Working Snake Takes Its Place

Before even reaching the Talisman Treasure Sect to cultivate, Zhang Chi had already offended disciples of the sect. This could be considered a protagonist's disposition.

Wherever he went, trouble followed.

"I've been living a mediocre life for eighteen years, never getting into any trouble. It seems like you, Gu Youyou, are the real protagonist," Zhang Chi muttered to himself. Gu Youyou couldn't help but ask curiously, "What are you talking about? I feel like you're talking bad about me again."

Whenever Zhang Chi thought about Gu Youyou, her reactions would become stronger.

"I'm just reflecting on how thanks to you, my cultivation life has become so exciting. Thank you!" Zhang Chi suddenly said.

"No need to be polite," Gu Youyou replied.

Zhang Chi's sudden change in behavior made Gu Youyou feel awkward. She was more often feared by others and rarely thanked.

Since being with Zhang Chi, she was more often blamed for things and rarely thanked. Suddenly being thanked by Zhang Chi made her feel better.

After brushing off Gu Youyou, Zhang Chi, with the help of Long Yan, imprinted a slave mark on the white snake.

The white snake felt bitter in its heart, but it couldn't cry.

It thought it had successfully escaped, but who would have thought that Long Yan would specifically find it again?

Wasn't this toying with its emotions?

Under the coercion of Long Yan, it didn't dare to resist and the slave mark was successfully imprinted.

From then on, the once free and unrestrained snake became Zhang Chi's servant.

The white snake felt depressed and listless, like a salted fish that had lost its dreams.

"This snake is quite intelligent. Take good care of it. I have a Spirit Beast bag here, I'll give it to you," the wealthy sister said.

She was good in this aspect.

Three words: not lacking money.

She had backups for many things and could easily give them away.

Zhang Chi accepted the Spirit Beast and the Spirit Beast bag without hesitation.

Generally speaking, the higher the spiritual intelligence of a Spirit Beast, the more difficult it is to raise them because they have more emotions. After being enslaved, they may become depressed.

Once depressed, their growth will slow down and they may even die faster.

On the other hand, some Spirit Beasts with lower intelligence can live longer and readily accept human enslavement.

However, beasts without spiritual intelligence have limited room for growth.

Long Yan briefly explained these common knowledge to Zhang Chi. It was clear that the white snake was feeling a bit depressed.

But Zhang Chi had no problem with how to train a Spirit Beast.

He could handle people with high intelligence, let alone a small snake.

Zhang Chi took the snake back to his room and started to work on its mindset.

"It's dangerous for you to swim in the river every day, you know?" Zhang Chi said, but the white snake didn't react. It seemed uninterested in Zhang Chi's words.

Zhang Chi continued to talk to himself, saying, "I think it's quite dangerous for you. Big fish eat small fish, small fish eat shrimp. You're just a Rank Two Spirit Beast, you won't be able to escape from a Rank Three beast, and it's also dangerous to encounter humans.

You've already attracted a group of people's attention. One day, you'll either die at their hands or be captured by them. They might not be as easy to talk to as I am."

The white snake moved slightly, indicating that it could hear and understand Zhang Chi's words.

"Actually, you're quite lucky today. You successfully made it ashore and settled down with me. You don't have to worry about being hunted by predators in the water anymore. You have a safe place to live, and if you're hungry, I'll feed you. Isn't this better than struggling on your own?" Zhang Chi continued to persuade.

The white snake's eyes opened slightly.

Beasts would never willingly become slaves unless they were provided with food and shelter.

It seemed to be considering it.

See, the little snake was easily persuaded. As long as there were some benefits, it wouldn't resist as much.

Zhang Chi was good at painting a rosy picture. He continued to persuade, "We humans have a saying: when one person achieves enlightenment, even chickens and dogs can ascend to heaven.

In other words, when a person becomes successful, even the chickens and dogs they raise can have great opportunities for promotion. Even chickens and dogs receive such treatment, so the rewards for personally raising a Spirit Beast will be even greater.

Therefore, you don't need to be discouraged because you were caught. On the contrary, you should feel happy.

The white snake coiled up its body and began to think. It wasn't very smart, but it felt that Zhang Chi made sense.

In the future, it wouldn't need to hunt on its own, let alone hide from humans.

Seeing the white snake regain its spirits, Zhang Chi naturally wouldn't stop there.

"In the future, if you follow me, you will have to learn the rules of human survival. If you want to gain something, you have to put in effort. If you want to gain more, you have to improve yourself as much as possible. Of course, I will provide you with some small help in the spirit of humanitarianism, but you will also have to contribute an equivalent amount of labor."

The white snake nodded, feeling that Zhang Chi was reasonable.

At this moment, it didn't yet know that the source of all suffering was having a job.

After successfully deceiving the white snake, Zhang Chi put her into the Spirit Beast bag and gave her a pill.

Many human cultivators treated Spirit Beasts in a simple and brutal manner. One way was to endlessly abuse them, using oppressive methods to make them submit, just like training a falcon. Train them, and if they go too far, they can just train the Spirit Beast to death. Another way was to promise them a lot of benefits. But in this case, where was the servant and where was the master?

Zhang Chi was different. He would give rewards, but he would also give punishment.

"In the future, you will be called Bai Su, and strive to cultivate into an immortal."

Zhang Chi gave the best blessing, but he didn't really expect the white snake to truly cultivate into an immortal. Throughout history, there were very few records of people who had cultivated into immortals, only legends without any evidence. For a small snake, the difficulty of cultivating into an immortal was too great. But this didn't stop Zhang Chi from making empty promises.

For three consecutive days, the white snake lived a comfortable life, with daily supplies of food, Spirit Pills, and spiritual stones. This was indeed much more comfortable than being in the wild.

And on this day, Zhang Chi and the others finally arrived at the port controlled by the Talisman Treasure Sect, and it was time for Zhang Chi and Long Yan to part ways.

Worried that Talisman Treasure Sect's people would come to greet her if she got closer to the dock, Long Yan stopped after reaching a safe area.

"Let's stop here. If people from the Talisman Treasure Sect bully you, just leave. Come to the Dragon Transformation Palace. Sister won't forget what she promised you."

Zhang Chi had been calling her sister all along, and Long Yan gradually felt a sense of identification, truly treating herself as an older sister.

At this moment of parting, she also remembered the confrontation she had with the disciples of the Talisman Treasure Sect before, and those people had also seen Zhang Chi.

Naturally, she wasn't afraid of retaliation, but Zhang Chi was different.

Hmm, this rich sister's reflex arc was a bit long. It took her three days to remember?

To ensure that Zhang Chi could find her, Long Yan specially gave her a token, which was her token.

"When you arrive in Dragon City, use this to find the people from the Dragon Transformation Palace. They will bring you to see me."

"I understand. Thank you, sister. I will come find you in the future."

Zhang Chi's obedience made the rich sister very satisfied.

At the moment of parting, she also gave two Long-distance Travel Talismans, one for Zhang Chi and one for Chen Runyu.

These were the most precious escape talismans among the purple treasure talismans. When in danger, this talisman could save their lives.

After giving away the items, Long Yan finally left with peace of mind.

Chen Runyu couldn't help but sigh, "This Elder Long is really a good person!"

"Yes, just like you, both of you are pure and kind-hearted people..."

PS: The medical examination revealed problems with my liver and kidney functions, so I won't be updating after 9:30 PM anymore. I'll try to sleep early and rest.

This is the fourth update today, only one update away from five updates.

There are important matters tomorrow, so I can only do two updates.
