"That sounds nice," the Bone Demon Princess said with a slight smile, "If you can get your Yunxiao Sect to support my Qiangui Sect for free, I'll believe you for now."

Chu Xing sighed helplessly and spread his hands:

"I would like to, but I can't do it. I am just a nobody in Yunxiao Sect and have no say."

"But I see you're quite capable in my Thousand Puppet Sect," White Bone Demon Fairy glanced at him. "As soon as I announced my appointment as Sect Leader, you sent people to spread the news that you were going to be the Young Master of the Thousand Puppet Sect."

Chu Xing: “…”

You treacherous villains, you have no other options except snitching, right?!

When Chu Xing went to look for Shi Feifan in the morning, he was only seen by Shi Liao.

He couldn't think of anyone else except this old thief.

The Bone Demon Princess asked:

"How much profit do you expect this simulated puppet to bring?"

"That depends on how it works," Chu Xing paused and said, "As long as it works well, it's not impossible for a simulated puppet to sell for millions of spirit stones in the future."

The Bone Demon Princess' eyes lit up, "Stop keeping me in suspense and tell me the details."

Chu Xing pondered for a moment:

"I'll explain it to you step by step. We won't make much money at the beginning, but I think it won't be a problem to sell a simulated puppet for hundreds of spirit stones."

"My plan at this stage is to open a shop in Hun Tian Xian City and build some reputation first."

As he spoke, he took out the City Lord's token given by Wang Huntian and waved it in front of the Bone Demon Princess. "With the City Lord's token, it shouldn't be difficult to open a prosperous shop. Besides, I have a good relationship with the Jubao Merchants Guild in the city. We can put some simulated puppets on consignment with the Jubao Merchants Guild and ask them to help us advertise."

"Isn't it too little to earn only one hundred spirit stones from each puppet?" The Bone Demon Princess frowned.

Chu Xing frowned and looked at her, "Cui'er, you are a full man and you don't know the hunger of a hungry man..."

"Hmph!" The Bone Demon Princess slammed the table, interrupting him. "I didn't argue with you just now. Did you really think I didn't hear it?"

"Oh, look at my memory," Chu Xing slapped his forehead and said with a flattering smile, "I really shouldn't call him Palace Master anymore. I should change it to Sect Leader!"

The Bone Demon Princess rolled her eyes at him, her face stern, and her tone slightly sullen: "Stop talking nonsense and continue."

"Yes, Master." Chu Xing straightened his expression and continued:

"Actually, one hundred spirit stones is already a lot. Many of our Jindan disciples now have no more than two thousand spirit stones in their storage bags. Moreover, this simulation puppet has no requirements for combat power, only aesthetics. In other words, even a Qi Refining disciple can make one as long as he has good carving skills."

The Bone Demon Princess nodded, "What happens after you become famous?"

Chu Xingdao:

"After we become famous, what we need to do is seize the opportunity to expand rapidly. My plan is to open stores in every commercial district in Hun Tian Xian City."

"Then we can try to open stores in the other four immortal cities and strive to make our store famous. During this stage, we can gradually launch some more exquisite puppets. I estimate that it should not be difficult to sell them for thousands of spirit stones."

The Bone Demon Princess asked, "What happens next?"

Chu Xing then spoke:

"After that, we need to gradually build our puppets into a brand, moving them towards high-end development. While pursuing good looks, we also endow them with powerful strength."

"After all, in the world of cultivation, things that have both strength and face are the most popular."

"What is a brand?" The Bone Demon Princess frowned slightly.

Chu Xing was stunned for a moment, then said:

"I really don't know how to explain this to you. Have you heard of Yuhuang Tower?"

"I've heard a little bit about this brothel under the name of the Jade Phoenix Music Sect."

"You can think of this Yuhuang Tower as a brand," Chu Xing gave an example. "As soon as people hear the words 'Yuhuang Tower', they immediately know it's a high-end brothel."

"And I also... I once heard a friend say that he spent a lot of spirit stones after entering, but in the end he could only listen to music. The service was obviously not worth the price. But even so, many people are still willing to spend money there. This is the extra value brought by the brand."

The Bone Demon Princess nodded thoughtfully. "But the initial profits from this business are very small, and the Thousand Puppet Sect is currently struggling to even turn around its operations and can't come up with many spirit stones. If there's no obvious benefit from the start, do you think the Yunxiao Sect will still agree to cooperate with the Thousand Puppet Sect?"

Chu Xing looked puzzled. "You were the deputy leader before, don't you know how to do something as basic as drawing a pie in the sky?"

"Can you speak human language?!" The Bone Demon Queen raised her eyebrows.

"Just the surface meaning. When you go to talk to old man Lu Yuan, why don't you paint him a rosy picture?" Chu Xing was a little speechless. "Just say that we won't give you spirit stones, but dividends. Then brag about how much spirit stones you can make from this business in the future. This old man is very greedy and even wants the spirit stones for a small golden elixir like me. I guarantee he will agree."

"We demon cultivators are always straightforward and don't like those who flatter us. Go talk to him for me."

"..." Chu Xing was at a loss whether to laugh or cry after hearing this. "Have you forgotten that I'm still a disciple of Yunxiao Sect and he's the Sect Master? How can I talk to him like this?"

The Bone Demon Princess blushed slightly, and after a moment of silence, she said:

"Do you guarantee that it will work as you say?"

"It's almost certain," Chu Xing couldn't help but start to worry about the future of Qianguimen. "I'll be going back to Yunxiao Sect in a few days. While you talk to him, I can help you out, right?"

The Bone Demon Princess said:

"Then can we start making some preparations now? For example, collect some portraits of the people you mentioned."

"After all, portraits are too different from the real person. It would be best to send someone to take some images using the photo stone."

The Bone Demon Princess nodded slightly, "I'll have someone do it later."

After saying this, she gently put down her pen and collected the copied paper on the table.

Then she slowly stood up, her figure as graceful as a swaying orchid, and moved step by step towards the jade couch.

Seeing this, Chu Xing hurriedly followed.

"Master, I..."

Looking at the pair of slender hands reaching out to him, Chu Xing's gaze inadvertently moved to the pair of delicate little feet under the black skirt. His lips moved, but he seemed to be hesitant to speak.

"Hmm?" The Bone Demon Queen raised her eyebrows, and her eyes suddenly became sharper.

Chu Xing slowly raised his hand and grabbed her slender white hand.

It is icy cool, soft as if boneless, delicate and tender.

Two hours later, with the help of a certain demon woman, Chu Xing's cultivation successfully advanced to the Golden Elixir stage.

However, he was not happy at all.

Without the spur of humiliation, he became somewhat decadent...
