”What condition?” The Demon Snake asked hurriedly.

”Sign a contract with my disciple. Protect him for the rest of your life. You cannot betray him.” The Old Ghost said solemnly.

The Demon Snake thought for a moment and asked: ”Was your disciple the person who fought against me just now?”

”Yes.”

The Demon Snake became silent again. If it was Xiao Ding, his strength would indeed be a little weak as well, since he had cultivated for more than a thousand years yet he still had to sign a contract with such a weak person. Furthermore, he would have to protect him for his entire life.

Old Ghost said lightly, ”I have also wronged you a little. However, if you don't agree, I can only dig out your Inner Core and give it to him to use mana to increase his power. ”

Old Ghost's tone was flat, but his words were filled with threat.

Originally, Old Ghost did not want to waste words with the Demon Snake, he just let Xiao Ding retrieve the Snake Pill for him. Only, when the Demon Snake was begging for mercy, he suddenly thought of this method on a whim. He thought, if I take out my body in the future and want to leave Xiao Ding, with this Demon Snake, Xiao Ding would have a protective god.

Hearing the Old Ghost's words, the Demon Snake's body shook and it could not help but feel fear.

Indeed, transforming into his own Inner Core had further increased his cultivation.

The Demon Snake did not dare hesitate anymore, and immediately agreed: ”Alright, I will sign the contract with him.”

Old Ghost said, ”Then go back to the water and come out at night.”

The Demon Snake answered and slowly swam into the water.

Old Ghost told the whole story to Xiao Ding, and Xiao Ding said: ”Regarding this, Old Ghost, you can decide on it.”

Xiao Ding could not help but be happy when he thought of how he would soon have such a gigantic pet.

Liu Feixu watched as the big snake moved towards the lake, and said in shock: ”Xiao Ding, the big snake is about to leave, you aren't going to stop it.”

Xiao Ding stared at the Demon Snake and thought: ”Then you are about to become my pet, what are you going to stop me for?” He said, ”Leave it alone, it's not easy either. I'm sure I'll have to go back to the bottom of the pool to heal my wounds. We're just going to pass by and we don't have to make it difficult. ”

Liu Feixu said in shock, ”Xiao Ding, you think that you work for the Animal Protection Association? This is a huge snake with a strong attacking ability, and you aren't afraid of bullets.”

Liu Feixu clearly remembered that he, Deng Zhou and Xie Weiwu couldn't even kill the huge snake with their spears.

”This is an ancient forest with few signs of human life. There isn't much harm in letting it go. After this incident, I believe that it will also be more restrained.” Xiao Ding said lightly, ”So, let it go.”

Xie Weiwu, Deng Zhou, Lin Zhongke and Yang Zongfu all felt that what Xiao Ding said was reasonable, but more importantly, only Xiao Ding could stop the big snake. Honestly speaking, even though they were members of Thunderbolt Team, they did not dare to stop the giant serpent after the dangerous situation they had just experienced.

After walking for over an hour, they finally arrived at the end of the pool. At the end of the pool, there was a cliff, and the water in the pool jumped down from the gap, forming a waterfall.

The six of them observed the cliff for a while before choosing a safer route to climb down.

It was dusk when they reached the bottom of the valley. The six of them immediately found a relatively dry place to camp out.

In the evening, with a convenient excuse, Xiao Ding climbed up the cliff with the Old Ghost and arrived beside the pool.

Old Ghost summoned his Demon Snake, and fresh blood was shed from the wound on its head. Xiao Ding cut a wound on its forehead and squeezed out a few fresh drops of blood, dripping onto the wound.

Suddenly, Xiao Ding's body shook, he realized that he had seen through the Demon Snake's consciousness.

The Demon Snake accepted its fate, looking extremely dejected.

Old Ghost said, ”Can you be smaller? If you can be smaller, then you should be smaller. You are so huge, how can my disciple bring you out of this forest? And only by shrinking can I help you heal your injuries in the ring, and also use elixirs to treat your injuries. ”

The Demon Snake turned its body into a little snake the size of a finger.

Old Ghost hurriedly said, ”Brat, put it into your storage ring.”

Xiao Ding's mind moved, and the Demon Snake entered the storage ring. Old Ghost also followed into the storage ring and chose a few spiritual herbs for the Demon Snake to consume. He then activated his Innate Qi and started to heal the Demon Snake.

Xiao Ding returned to the camp and went into the tent, falling into a deep sleep. Because he had made a contract with the Demon Snake, he felt a little tired and stopped cultivating.
