A Useless Person's Rise to Power: The Demon King's Addiction to Pampering

The Contractual Chapter

Of the eight Contract Master manuals, Feng Jiutian had found about two in total, and this third one had a rather significant impact on him.

The first book is the Beast Contract Chapter, which is specifically for contracting magical beasts. The second book is the Demon Contract Chapter, which is specifically for contracting demons. The third book directly starts the Human Contract Chapter, which is for contracting humans.

Feng Jiutian couldn't think of anything more inhumane than the Contract Master's Manual; it was simply...

I don't know how to begin.

Feng Jiutian spent several hours reading through the "Contractual Contract" before he suddenly realized that this contract was not a mandatory master-servant command like that of contracted magical beasts, but rather a contract between people, with the medium being the other party.

Of course, the "Contractual Relationship" also contains extremely domineering master-servant contracts, which are generally used to target some heinous criminals.

The equal contract between people is built on trust, which is more reliable than the Way of Heaven. The Way of Heaven only punishes those with strong wills, and those with strong wills can overcome it. This is recorded in the "Contract Master's Manual"—

The contract between the two parties is based on trust. If one party violates the trust conditions, the contract formation will be triggered, and the cultivation will be dissipated within three days. Regardless of gender, the body will be transformed into a complete furnace. Even if they live, they will not have peace. The other party will no longer have to abide by the contract terms and can freely drive or even torture the party who violates the rules!

The extremely harsh conditions, coupled with the bloodshed, made Feng Jiutian like it.

I heard... that Ge Baofang in Xixuan Kingdom is smearing her, right? Perfect, let's start by taking him down!

After putting away the books, Feng Jiutian didn't move everything out of the warehouse. He just picked out some spiritual herbs, rare treasures, and spiritual artifacts that he needed.

Now that we've gathered almost all the medicinal herbs, all that's missing is a dose of Qianshan Longquan...

Feng Jiutian rushed to where Gong Xifei was and inquired about the location of Qianshan Longquan.

When Gong Xifei saw that Feng Jiutian was still somewhat silent and seemed a little uncomfortable, he said softly, "At... Yushan."

“We’ve discovered that the location of Thousand Mountain Dragon Spring is in Yu Mountain, the mountain that lies between the Eastern Ling Kingdom and the Northern Qi Kingdom. The people we sent out were repelled before they even got close to the mountain, so we had to retreat. We’ve heard that it’s the most dangerous place on the Tenglong Continent. Do you really want to go, Island Master?”

Since Feng Jiutian took control of the Deep Sea Prison, Gong Xifei has started addressing Feng Jiutian as the Island Lord, even though he thought he would be killed by her.

He just didn't expect that Feng Jiutian didn't touch him at all, but instead spared his life, saying that the Deep Sea Prison still needed him to take care of it for the time being, so he wouldn't kill him for the time being.

After learning about the Thousand Mountains Dragon Spring, Feng Jiutian nodded and said in a deep voice, "I understand."

Before leaving, Feng Jiutian, still somewhat uneasy, used the Contract Technique to sign an equal contract with Gong Xifei.

Feng Jiutian's condition was that Gong Xifei should take good care of the Deep Sea Prison and not associate with Xiao Hao. In return, she promised Gong Xifei a condition that would not go against Feng Jiutian's own wishes, because he had not yet thought of one.

The moment the contract took effect, Feng Jiutian felt a subtle pull between the two of them, because it was an equal contract.

Therefore, Feng Jiutian and Gong Xifei can sense each other's presence. They can also shield themselves from knowing each other's presence, but this shielding is ineffective against the person who sets up the formation. In other words, Feng Jiutian can sense the location of anyone she contracts with.

This surprised Feng Jiutian. She wondered if she could give it a try on Mo Shaoxie later.

Mo Shaoxie is an elusive person, making him perfectly suited for something like a locator. She definitely needs to find an opportunity to have a serious talk with Mo Shaoxie...

However, Mo Shaoxie would have to lie in the ice coffin for another two months. Feng Jiutian's expression darkened slightly. She wanted to take this opportunity to quickly return to the Royal Academy of Dongling Kingdom to confirm whether the Seventh Prince there was indeed Mo Shaoxie!

Before returning to Dongling Kingdom, Feng Jiutian first went back to the Endless Domain and stayed for two days. During these two days, she sent messages to Ji Tianzuo and Ruohan. She had previously received news that they had split up to develop their forces, so Feng Jiutian did not let Ruohan leave Xixuan Kingdom.

Feng Jiutian has completely offended Xixuan Kingdom, so it's no wonder she broke off relations later, since he was the one who chased after her first!

……

In the past two days, Feng Jiutian wandered around the Endless Realm a couple more times, taking care of all the trivial matters before going to find Yan Shi'en. She was still worried about those potential dangers.

"Any news about Ling Yang?"

"No."

Yan Shi'en stroked his beard and narrowed his eyes, saying, "Although I did not sense the boy's aura, I did discover some strange people."

Feng Jiutian listened quietly as Yan Shi'en continued, "These people are dressed like ordinary people, but their demonic aura is extremely strong. However, they use a strange method to suppress the demonic aura within them, making it difficult for me to identify which ones are the real demons..."

Feng Jiutian nodded thoughtfully, his eyes somewhat vacant, and his expression became somewhat somber as he said, "In that case, when I was walking around the main city these past few days, I did discover one or two people who unintentionally leaked demonic energy, but they hid very quickly, and I couldn't find their exact locations."

"Anyone who can sneak into the Endless Realm without my notice is certainly no ordinary person; they're probably about to cause quite a stir..."

Yan Shi'en let out a long sigh, as if he were lamenting something. His gaze was somewhat vacant, or perhaps he was reminiscing about something.

Feng Jiutian knew that Yan Shien was sentimental, so she didn't disturb him and quietly left the room.

As soon as they stepped out of the Reincarnation Academy, Ling Sisi's eyes lit up as she approached Feng Jiutian's side, fawningly calling out.

"Lord of the Domain! You're back!"

“I’ve been back for three days already, let alone you only just received the news now.” Feng Jiutian glanced at her, said nothing, but made the other person cough guiltily and lower her head.

"If I said I really just received the news, would the Domain Lord believe me?" Ling Sisi blinked at Feng Jiutian and forced a fake smile.

This smile made Feng Jiutian chuckle softly, and he raised his hand to tap Ling Sisi on the head: "What are you thinking about all day long? What do you want from me now?"

"It's because there's some kind of alchemy competition tonight. I'm curious, but I don't have any money..."

If you don't have money, ask the domain owner.

This was Ling Sisi's first thought; the second was to wait for Feng Jiutian's agreement.

Feng Jiutian stopped walking, stood still, turned to look at Ling Sisi, and asked, word by word, "Do I look like the kind of sucker who would pay for someone else's money?"

"..."
