Bai Ming blinked her big eyes at Gu Yuchuan. Normally, he would have immediately turned into King Zhou and patted the little fox. But now, he couldn't laugh. He had forgotten his business and could only look at the clam girl.

The Clam Maiden holds a high position in Yunxi Palace, managing internal affairs. Although her cultivation level is not high, she wields power and enjoys the trust of the Serpent. She should be able to handle these matters.

“Fellow Daoist Clam Maiden, this fox demon Bai Ming is a subordinate I recruited outside. Look at my cultivation level, I’m not far from opening up my own river. So, could you help me register him as a demon? Also, the koi fish next to my house has already pledged allegiance to me.”

The clam maiden glanced at him: "Fellow Daoist Green Snake, I didn't expect that you, who usually seem so honest and upright, would do such a thing. I don't care about Fellow Daoist Bai Ming, but that koi is one of my Yunxi River people. Isn't what you're doing a bit too much?"

Actually, it's no wonder he's angry; it really went too far. It's like poaching someone's talent. But he already promised Jinli, and Jinli's talent is very useful, so he can't possibly give it away.

Just as he was about to speak, the shrimp soldier stepped forward: "Clam Girl, just do it for Fellow Daoist Green Snake. The King instructed that you should not make things difficult for her. However, Fellow Daoist Green Snake, the first time you do this, I can say that you are innocent because you are ignorant, but there absolutely cannot be a second time. Do you understand?"

Although the other party's words were very impolite, Gu Yuchuan was in the wrong first, so he naturally wouldn't hold it against them: "Don't worry, it will only happen once. I'm not the kind of snake that doesn't know the rules."

He and the Serpent King weren't very close to begin with, so he always had to be careful about his distance. Today was the first time, so he might not care, but if there was a second time, the other party would inevitably wonder if he harbored ill intentions towards the Serpent King.

After settling things here, he took the other party home and invited Jinli to his house for a meeting. His cave dwelling was half land and half water, which was perfect for everyone to stand on without any problems.

Gu Yuchuan stood on the rock, looking at his two subordinates. Although they were still weak, they both had some talent and potential, which was enough. Potential meant they would be useful in the future, and this was his core team.

"Today, I gave you two official identities from the Serpent King, officially paving the way for your future. After I advance to the ninth level of Qi Refining, I will take you to our territory. I have already pledged allegiance to the Xuan Turtle Demon General, and I will pay my respects to him after my advancement. Since you have joined my ranks, you should cultivate diligently. You are weak now, and I can provide you with resources. However, I will only say this once: if you betray me, I will not let you off. Here are twenty catties of royal jelly; you can share it."

Gu Yuchuan would still do the "slap and then sweet treat" thing, and the two of them immediately prostrated themselves in admiration. This fox demon's mind was indeed a bit quicker.

"Your Majesty, today I, Bai Ming, swear once again that I will never betray Your Majesty or do anything that would harm you. If I betray you, may I be destroyed, body and soul. Heaven and earth bear witness."

This is the world of immortals, where oaths made to heaven and earth are recorded. Violation of these oaths will result in a terrible fate. Gu Yuchuan was relieved to see her doing this. However, this only highlighted Jinli's incompetence. Jinli stared at them with wide eyes, her heart burning with anxiety. The more anxious she became, the less she knew what to say. In the end, she could only blurt out, "Me too."

Gu Yuchuan burst out laughing. "You pretty boy, how could you say something like that?" After repeating Bai Ming's vow once, Gu Yuchuan finally spoke: "Today at Yunxi Palace, I gave you a name. From now on, you will be called Bai Li. As for official positions, we'll talk about that when we truly establish our own sect. Just remember one thing: your cultivation is the most fundamental thing. I know that your cultivation is not easy, so I will be a little more considerate of you, but you must also put your heart into it."

Both of them had suffered hardships, so they naturally knew how important resources were. Gu Yuchuan's willingness to give them resources was like that of second parents, and both of them were very happy and moved. Bai Ming knelt down again.

"Since Your Majesty values ​​us so highly, we will certainly cultivate diligently. When Your Majesty needs our help, we will brave mountains of knives and seas of fire without hesitation."

In fact, Gu Yuchuan already had some ideas about their division of labor. Bai Li was a professional, and he would only be responsible for observing the changes in fortune. He wouldn't need to fight or handle internal affairs. His cultivation level was low, so he wouldn't consume many resources and would be easy to support. If he could improve himself and cultivate, supporting a subordinate with a much lower cultivation level than himself wouldn't be difficult. His talent was enough to support this value.

As for Bai Ming, the fox demon's wisdom is renowned throughout the demon race. He can handle internal affairs very well, and after reaching the mid-stage of Qi Refining, he can take human form, making him a pleasing sight. Who wouldn't like a capable beauty? That's how he sees the two of them. As for combat, it has to be said that the two of them are indeed not good at it. They're not cut out for it. Besides, Gu Yuchuan's cultivation is currently weak, and he has no reputation, so naturally he can't find subordinates who are good at combat.

He can only seek these subordinates after he has made a name for himself. Now, it is definitely impossible.

He cleared out a small place next to his cave for Bai Ming to stay in. It wasn't a fancy place, but he figured it would be fine for now. After all, he wouldn't be staying there for long anyway, and he was only a few simulations away from breaking through, so he didn't want to go through any more trouble. Once he had settled things, he let them leave.

He needs to check his panel to see how things have changed.

Name: Gu Yuchuan.

[Race: Green Snake.]

[Bloodline: Superior-grade demonic beast: Horned Serpent.]

[Talents; Basic Stealth; Enhanced Venom; Level 2 Devour; Basic Water Control; Clone; Cloud Riding]

[Innate Divine Abilities; Azure Scale Armor, Ink-Pure Spiritual Light, Poisonous Mist]

[Cultivation Level: Demon Soldier Level 8 (Qi Refining Level 8)]

Number of simulations: 2

[Dragon Points; 120]

[Subordinates: Bai Yu Jinli (Mid-grade demon beast, Qi Refining Level 2); Bai Ming (Half-demon fox demon, Qi Refining Level 3).]

This is a big change compared to when he first transmigrated, and he is very happy. He believes that his panel will be even more magnificent soon. As for now, he plans to use up one simulation attempt. He wants to see if he can find the Heavenly Gang and Earthly Fiend Qi in the simulation. Now that he knows the path to heaven, he has to take a gamble.
