Surviving a Tribulation Failure and Collecting Disciples in the Mortal World

Shang Liang, the master of the Yuntai Sect, failed his ascension after using the remains of an ancient divine dragon to refine a magical artifact, the Dragon Soul Tower, causing his soul to transmi...

Chapter 205 Professional

Old Man Chai stayed in the hospital for a week before he regained his strength. Then, She Jinxing took him back to the rented house opposite the No. 2 Middle School. Although the house was small, it could be divided into two bedrooms and a living room.

Everything was small, as if the house would be full if there were two more people. But Old Man Chai didn't care. As long as Shang Lin was alive and well, that was more important than anything else.

However, during this week, Old Man Chai also learned some things about Shang Lin, such as that he had graduated from junior high school and was admitted to the provincial key high school with the highest score in the city, but had to choose the city key high school because he didn't have money and had to commute.

In short, Old Man Chai asked about Shang Lin's affairs, and She Jinxing naturally told him everything he could, although this was only the small part that was on the surface.

In the first few days after waking up, Old Man Chai was too weak to think about anything. Later, as his health gradually recovered, he was able to think about more things.

Moreover, many things are full of doubts even without thinking about them. For example, he clearly remembers that he was seriously injured by the merchants last October and only woke up at the end of this year. So how did he survive for nearly fourteen months?

Besides, I was so badly injured back then. Even if I had survived by sheer luck, I wouldn't be in this state now, looking like someone who's only been sick for a week. And where did Shang Lin's money come from?

However, Old Man Chai didn't ask any of these questions. He told himself when Shang Lin finished his final exams that he couldn't let it affect his studies no matter what.

Since Old Man Chai had already gone home, no one except She Jinxing could appear at home, so everyone went to the martial arts hall. Of course, this "everyone" did not include Ta Ling, Lü Yao, and A Chou.

The Dragon Spirit Tower cannot be too far from Shang Lin, and the Tower Spirit cannot be too far from the Dragon Spirit Tower. Green Yao and Ah Chou rarely leave the tower. Oh, and there is a little turtle in the tower now. It has been beaten by everyone in turn and is now practically inanimate.

However, everyone's efforts were not in vain. The little turtle confessed that it had seen that Shang Lin had a special physique and wanted to possess him, but it did not expect to be captured by him instead.

In the current situation, Shang Lin and the others couldn't do anything to the little turtle, and the little turtle couldn't do anything to them either, so a strange balance was maintained, and then it fell into a deep sleep again.

However, thanks to Old Man Chai's clear-headedness and She Jinxing's intervention, the opening of the martial arts school was put on hold. During this period, Xing Tian did indeed begin recruiting ordinary people to write scripts and film short stories about heroes and beauties.

As for Fan Mingyu's company, Xing Tian handled everything via mobile phone, planning to hand over control once the owner started winter break, which didn't delay making money.

It has to be said that because of Xing Tian's stories about heroes and beauties, the number of fans on She Jinxing's account has skyrocketed. Although Hu Tangdi and Chi Xie did not show their faces, having ancient people portray ancient people is much more realistic than having modern people portray ancient people. It is even better than professional actors.

Xing Tian even asked Hu Tangdi and Chi Xie out of curiosity, "Before you were sealed away, did you live in the human world? Otherwise, how could you have perfectly portrayed the demeanor of the ancients?"

Hu Tangdi said, "Back then, I was still a little fairy, and I couldn't even fully transform into human form. How could I possibly live in the human world? But I thought that I would eventually have to live in the human world, so I transformed into the pets of various wealthy families and observed the women in those families. Gradually, I learned how to do it."

Red Scorpion said, "I have lived in the human world. I even served as the national advisor in a small country, but I found it boring and left."

Xing Tian's eyes lit up as he listened, "And then what happened?"

Red Scorpion's expression suddenly darkened, but his tone remained light. "Later, the spiritual energy in the world disappeared, and the powerful beings either vanished or perished. We lesser demons were either killed or sealed away, and the human realm gradually entered the Dharma-ending Age."

This topic was a bit too heavy for the demon cultivators, so Xing Tian quickly changed the subject, "We've now hired someone to write the script, and we also need to hire staff for filming, so you guys have to be the face of the business. I'll have to step back and work behind the scenes."

Red Scorpion immediately refused, "I'm only responsible for being an actor. I don't know anything else. What if I mess things up again?"

Xing Tian really wanted to say, "If you don't understand, can't you learn?"

But when he thought of the look on Red Scorpion's face when he mentioned the past, he immediately stopped. This guy is inherently rebellious, so let's take it slow. Being able to cooperate with the video shoot is already a big improvement.

Hu Tangdi did not refuse, and even cooperated by saying, "I have no problem, but is the sect leader really going to only let Little Snake take care of him?"

Xing Tian sighed, "That's all we can do now. What if we scare Old Man Chai? The Sect Master cares so much about his health, we can't cause trouble. No, not only can we not cause trouble for the Sect Master, we also have to think about what he thinks and be anxious about what he's anxious about, such as making money."

Red Scorpion rolled his eyes without any regard for his image, and said with great disdain, "Sycophant, brainless fan."

Xing Tian stared at Red Scorpion in utter shock, completely oblivious to being looked down upon. He even sincerely praised her, "You didn't waste your time looking at your phone, you know about brainless fans now, impressive!"

Red Scorpion, "..."

Human brains and demon cultivators' brains are indeed different; can't he tell good from bad words?

Huang Ying hurriedly asked, "What about the martial arts school?"

Xing Tian immediately told the truth, "I don't know either. We need to discuss it with the sect leader. If we do well online, we don't need to consider offline for the time being. After all, we will leave with the sect leader after he graduates from high school. What will happen to the martial arts hall then?"

They had previously overlooked this issue in their focus on making money. Three years is neither a short nor a long time, unless they have the ability to establish a branch.

In short, the business they are doing now is all about trial and error. The sect leader is right. They have no connections, so in the early stages they can only try on their own, just like headless flies.

Fortunately, there is another stable source of income: whitening and spot-fading cream. Because of its excellent effect, the sales volume increases month by month, and the sect leader's share naturally increases as well.

While the group was discussing, someone sent a private message to She Jinxing's account, asking if he would sell products.

Xing Tian immediately became excited, "Look, look! Someone actually asked us to promote their products!"

Hu Tangdi hurriedly asked, "Are you going to agree?"

Xing Tian quickly refused, "Of course not. We've worked so hard for so long, how could we let others benefit from our efforts? Besides, now is not the time to start selling products. But in any case, this is a good start."
