Shen Yulou smiled, extended his palm holding the memory ball, and the memory ball flew towards the little beggar.
The little beggar tried to struggle, but he was horrified to find himself being controlled.
He could only watch helplessly as the threads emanating from the memory orb traveled into his mind.
Scenes from her previous life flashed before her eyes again, finally settling on the scene of Shen Yulou making a deal with Yama.
The fear and unease, like that of a newborn animal seeing a stranger, began to fade, replaced by a composure and calm that comes with experience.
His name is Xiao Xinghong. He is not an orphan without parents, nor is he a good-for-nothing.
He has a name, and he has a family.
"Thank you for your help, Ghost King. I, Xiao Xinghong, have no way to repay this kindness!"
Xiao Xinghong bowed deeply to Shen Yulou to express his heartfelt gratitude.
"It doesn't matter."
Shen Yulou retrieved the memory ball.
Do you remember the favor I told you to repay?
"After you achieve fame and success, work for my demon realm."
Upon hearing this news, Xiao Xinghong's expression remained unchanged.
When he made the decision to make the deal with Shen Yulou, he was already prepared to sell his body to him.
Moreover, it's merely serving the Demon Realm.
I'd give my life for him if it meant I could get my revenge.
"It is my honor, Xiao Xinghong, to serve the Demon Realm."
He gestured again towards Shen Yulou, his entire demeanor utterly respectful.
It feels like we've already become a superior-subordinate relationship.
"You're quite sensible. Congratulations on your successful revenge."
Shen Yulou was very satisfied with Xiao Xinghong's obedience and took out a jade pendant from the system space to hang around his neck.
"You have just entered the cultivation stage, and you will inevitably encounter troubles that you cannot solve on your own during the cultivation process."
"This jade pendant can block six attacks for you. As for the maximum number of attacks it can withstand..."
"I think even a full-force attack from a cultivator in the lower realm or some cultivators in the middle realm wouldn't be able to break through the defense of this jade pendant."
Just as Shen Yulou was about to hand over the jade pendant, Chi Yuan reached out and snatched it from him.
Under Xiao Xinghong's bewildered gaze, Chi Yuan conjured a waist token in his hand.
"Use this. This can also block six attacks for you, but its defensive capabilities are unbreakable below the upper limit."
Xiao Xinghong was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then his body swayed slightly.
"Thank you for your help, fellow Daoist. I have no way to repay this kindness. I, Xiao Xinghong, will definitely dedicate myself to the Demon Realm from now on."
This time, when he bowed, his face was almost touching his knees.
Shen Yulou pouted.
Chi Yuan is such a bad guy.
"No need to thank me, thank him instead. I only gave it to you because of the Ghost King."
Chi Yuan had a cold expression on his face. Then he touched Shen Yulou's hand and made him wrap the jade pendant he had given away around his wrist.
Watching the couple's intimate actions, Xiao Xinghong felt that he had discovered something, but in the end, he didn't expect anything at all.
He nodded his head blankly, then bowed deeply at a 180-degree angle.
Xiao Xinghong is incredibly flexible; he can even touch his knee with his face.
Shen Yulou's focus inexplicably shifted.
"We're leaving now. Fellow Daoist, we hope to meet again someday!"
"I hope to hear of your illustrious name in the upper realm soon."
Shen Yulou informed Xiao Xinghong, and then quickly disappeared with Chi Yuan.
"What's wrong with you, man? You actually took back the gift I gave you?"
"Do you look down on me?"
Shen Yulou asked the question knowingly, and poked Chi Yuan's chest with his finger.
"I'll take what you gave me, so I can't give it to him."
Chi Yuan, feeling perfectly justified, grabbed Shen Yulou's hand that was messing with his chest.
"A jealous man!"
Shen Meiren squinted and tiptoed to kiss his thin lips.
"Do you think the Succubus King, the Goblin King, and their bunch of gossip kings would be shocked to see us like this?"
"Let me think about it. Am I being disrespectful to my superiors?"
