Filling one of the empty pill bottles with his blood, Yang Shen stepped close to the cave"s entrance and threw it inside it while making sure to not use too much strength and cause it to break.Hearing a disappointed "tsk" come from inside the cave, Yang Shen rolled his eyes and stepped back.
Not too long after Yang Shen gave the beast his blood, a b.l.o.o.d.y red mist seeped out of the cave"s entrance.
Entering Yang Shen"s body right away, the red mist went straight towards his heart.
At the same time, a notification popped up in front of Yang Shen.
[Received Master(Xia Lijuan)-Slave(Yang Shen) Contract.
Accept or Decline?]
Feeling the corners of his lips twitching, Yang Shen chose decline without any hesitation.
Not too long after Yang Shen chose to decline, the red mist left his body and disappeared along with the wind.
Feeling happy that he had the Lecherous Cultivation System, without which he most likely would not have had an option in the matter, Yang Shen sneered and said, "Good try. Let"s see if you can behave the same way after a few hundred years."
Turning around after he said those words, Yang Shen began walking away.
"Wait!!!"
Smirking proudly as the beast"s anxious voice entered his ears, Yang Shen didn"t need to turn around before he heard the voice continue speaking
"I was just having some fun."
Soon after the voice entered Yang Shen"s ears, another puff of red mist exited the cave and entered his body.
[Received Master(Yang Shen)-Slave(Xia Lijuan) Contract.
Time Span: 1 Hour
Accept or Decline?]
Choosing decline, Yang Shen didn"t even bother showing a reaction as he turned around and left.
1 hour?
"Humph! That b.a.s.t.a.r.d wants to use me to get out of the cave and then kill me after the time span is over."
"WAIT!!!"
Not bothering to stop despite the increased anxiousness in the voice, Yang Shen felt that he should let this beast suffer from some desperation before he reappeared in front of it.
"I won"t trick you this time, but the terms of the contract have to be discussed."
"Oh, go on. I"m listening."
Staying silent for a while, the voice which belonged to a Xia Lijuan appeared from inside the cave.
"I can submit to you, but only for 50 years."
"If I don"t help you out, you"ll rot inside the cave for all eternity. So it"s only right that you become my slave forever."
"Humph! There"s no way I"ll agree to that."
"Okay. Then how about serving me until I die? You most likely hope that I"ll live a short life anyway."
"While I hope that you die very soon, I doubt such a thing is going to happen. After all, not only do you know about the seal around the cave, but even the blood contract. Since you have come here from the same place I came, you definitely won"t die soon."
"The same place? Is she thinking that I belong to her world?"
Not clarifying the beast"s misunderstanding, Yang Shen asked, "How long are you willing to serve me?"
"50 years."
"I"m not going to accept anything less than 500 years. Take it or leave it."
For the next few minutes, neither side said anything out loud and kept to themselves.
The beast was thinking that it didn"t mind the 500 years of time span since its own life span was very long. The question was whether Yang Shen could bring it out of the cave or not after accepting the contract.
As for Yang Shen, he was thinking that 500 years should be enough for him to grow stronger than the beast and not worry about being killed by it after the contract was over.
"500 years. Fine. This great one accepts."
Not too long after the beast said that, red mist once again escaped the cave and entered Yag Shen"s body.
[Received Master(Yang Shen)-Servant(Xia Lijuan) Contract.
Time Span: 500 Years
Condition: Contract will go through if Yang Shen manages to free Xia Lijuan from the Eight Trigrams Saint Seal.]
Making sure that there were no loopholes which could be used against him, Yang Shen stepped near the cave and watched as the system once again showed him the details of the array placed around it.
300 Points to obtain a strong servant and complete the first part of his first Chain Mission. Not a bad deal.
Paying the system the 300 Points decisively, Yang Shen saw a bright golden light flow out of his fingers and enter the pitch black cave.
Stopping not too long after they went through the entrance, the golden rays illuminated countless invisible runes in the air. At the same time, the golden rays caused the countless symbols to start melting.
Crack… Boom!
Taking a step back and raising his hand, Yang Shen quickly realized that nothing flew towards him despite the explosion.
All of those particles the symbols were made of turned into dust before they could even touch him.
At the same time, Yang Shen saw that the contract had been enforced which meant that he had obtained a servant.
Yes a servant, not a slave.
The difference between a slave and a servant was that the slave would die if the master died, but a servant wouldn"t die if the master died.
Regardless of which it was though, neither of them could go against their master"s words or try to kill them.
Due to this, Yang Shen despite seeing that the beast had offered him a Master-Servant Contract and not a Master-Slave Contract didn"t try to make it change the contract and accepted it.
After all, if he really did end up dying, what did it matter if the beast lived or died?
While Yang Shen was thinking such things, his eyes spotted some movement inside the pitch black cave.
With the sound of something sc.r.a.ping against the floor entering Yang Shen"s ears, in front of his eyes the head of a snake exited the cave.
Looking towards the pair of bright gold eyes, and the long body which was at least 60 feet even before it was completely outside the cave, Yang Shen unconsciously muttered, "Anaconda 10?"
