“Yes, yes, the more ruthless a person is in this world, the more stable they stand. This is a universal truth, no matter where they go.” Liang Chenghu nodded, quite satisfied with his methods.
"I have to go out for a bit." Hua Li glanced at Liang Chenghu.
"Mr. Hua, are you dissatisfied with the women you've been seeing lately? Then I'll go and pick some more. If you're still not satisfied, I'll go and visit some universities." Liang Chenghu was taken aback.
"No need, I'll take a look myself. The women you picked out are all show and no substance." Hua Li slowly shook her head: "Besides, they pollute my constitution and are no longer suitable for me to use as tonics."
“Well… that’s fine. If Mr. Hua needs anything, you can come and give me your orders anytime.” Liang Chenghu nodded.
He was still somewhat afraid of Hua Li.
Although the two are now in a cooperative relationship, Hua Li is not human after all, and he must be extremely careful when dealing with such a thing.
Once things are stable, I'll try to control this guy or get rid of him altogether. But right now, he still needs Hua Li's help, so I have to do things his way in every aspect, otherwise he might turn against me.
Hua Li nodded, then her figure flashed, transforming into a wisp of green mist and disappearing without a trace.
Snakes are inherently lustful. After Hua Li transformed into human form, he became very eager for sexual relations. However, after satisfying his desires for a while, he began to feel dissatisfied with the status quo.
He felt that the women Liang Chenghu sent were all empty shells and vulgar beauties, and he preferred women like Gu Manyun who possessed a seductive charm.
But this woman... last time she wielded a dagger and cut off his manhood, which made Hua Li, who was already very vengeful, extremely resentful of her.
He vowed that once he recovered, he would find that woman as soon as possible and make her pluck at his feet.
This guy sneaked into a pretty big bar. Even a demon who had cultivated himself into a human was unable to resist the decadent lifestyle of humans and even became addicted to it.
As soon as he entered, a bar girl surrounded him, flirting and giving him seductive looks. Then, when Hua Li wasn't paying attention, she slipped a pill into his glass.
Although Hua Li remained calm, he clearly saw all of the bar girl's little tricks.
He grabbed the spiked cup, sniffed it, and then drank it without hesitation.
"Brother, order a few more drinks, okay? After we finish, let's go to a hotel and discuss life in bed." The bar girl winked at Hua Li, knowing that he would soon be in a hallucinatory state after drinking the drug she had laced with.
He'll do whatever I say, so why not take the opportunity to fleece him and strip him of all his valuables?
Hua Li put down his cup and frowned, saying, "This wine is very strange."
"What's strange?" The bar girl was taken aback, thinking to herself that this guy had impressive composure. Had she not added enough to the drink? How could he remain so calm after finishing it?
"It gives people a feeling of floating on air, and even their consciousness seems to be out of control." Hua Li frowned.
Suddenly, he felt the original owner's consciousness within his body resisting, as if it were fighting for control of his body.
He was startled, let out a muffled groan, and reached out to steady himself on the table.
This is a side effect of the spiked wine from earlier. This stuff is too potent; even Hua Li, who has cultivated for many years, is finding it hard to withstand.
If we don't find a way to control him in time, he might even reveal his true colors in public.
Although Hua Li was arrogant, he knew that it was inappropriate to reveal his true form in this place. He leaned on the table, forced himself to stand up, and then stumbled away from there.
"Don't go, handsome! You've had your drinks and haven't paid yet." The bar girl was startled and quickly called over a few of the bar's thugs to follow them.
Hua Li felt the discomfort in his body getting stronger and stronger, so he turned around and went into a dead end.
The bar girl, accompanied by several thugs, was hot on their heels. She cursed and said, "You bastard, dressed like a respectable person, but you're a penniless wretch."
"He's only had a little bit of alcohol, and he's already trying to skip out on the bill? We'll find him later and break his legs."
"Lili, you have terrible taste. You can't even pick a rich guy?" a bar thug said with a laugh.
"It's not easy to catch a sucker these days," Lili cursed. "It's not like back then, when I could just throw my hook and someone would fall for it. Sigh, in this world, even making money is hard."
"Brother Tian, that kid ran into this alley." One of the henchmen pointed to the dead end ahead.
"Let's go, stop that brat! Don't let him slip away here. We haven't paid for the drinks yet, and I even wasted a big pill!" Lili yelled, leading her men inside.
The alley wasn't very big, and it was deathly quiet and a dead end, but after the group went in, they didn't see Hua Li.
"Where did they go?" Lili looked around inside but didn't see anyone.
"I don't know, he was just here a moment ago, and then he disappeared as soon as I turned my head." The henchman was also puzzled. He clearly saw the person run in, but now he was gone as soon as he turned his head.
"Useless, can't even take care of people."
"Hurry up and look for him. We've been following him the whole time. This kid can't have gone far, otherwise we'll have to split the cost of the drinks."
Seeing that there was no one in the alley, the group turned around and prepared to leave and search somewhere else, but just then, a huge snake head suddenly blocked their way.
The group of people were startled, their faces turned deathly pale, and they stood frozen in place, too afraid to move.
The entrance to the alley was occupied by a huge snake, its body as thick as a water vat.
Moreover, a huge snake head, like a small car, completely blocked the entrance to the alley...
Lili was standing at the front when she saw a snake's tongue stick out and slap her face.
A chilling feeling froze her in place, and after a moment, she let out a hysterical scream...
Before Ranran could finish her cry, the car-sized snake head suddenly split open, revealing a gaping maw that swallowed Lili whole.
Snap! Blood splattered everywhere.
The remaining people screamed and struggled as they scattered and fled.
However, the giant snake roared to the sky, opened its mouth wide, and forcefully swallowed the group.
Whoosh... The powerful suction swallowed the remaining three people into the snake's belly, and then swallowed them whole.
After swallowing four people at once, Hua Li reverted to human form.
His consciousness gradually returned after he received food.
