Lin Shuyou: "Think about it from another angle; we have no room for regression now. Look at Chen Jing following the Three-eyed Kid, I believe the premise is that Brother Xiao Yuan doesn’t want to recruit newcomers anymore."

Child: "That’s true, at least it’s not like the Womb of the Earth Bodhisattva in the beginning, constantly recruiting new Yin Gods."

At that moment, Li Zhiyuan’s gaze sharpened.

From the Peach Forest, there was also a faint "ha."

Li Zhiyuan said nothing, waved his right hand, the paper lotus bloomed, and after a burst of firelight, turned into ashes.

"Alright, they’ve reincarnated, now we can proceed to the next step."

Lin Shuyou widened his eyes.

The child thought to himself, "Eh..."

Lin Shuyou: "What’s wrong?"

Li Zhiyuan’s peripheral glance swept over.

Child: "Ha!"

Lin Shuyou: "What?"

Child: "Clearing my throat."

Tan Wenbin tried to stand up from the wheelchair. He stood up, but his legs were still shaking, and after walking a few steps forward, he was about to lose balance.

The body bore pressure for so long, even if the two children are no longer here, recovery is not an overnight matter.

Even a healthy person, sitting in a wheelchair for such a long time would experience muscle atrophy.

Lin Shuyou quickly stepped forward to support Tan Wenbin: "Brother Bin, will you be able to drive to Jinling to see Zhou Yunyun tomorrow?"

Tan Wenbin: "You can drive."

Lin Shuyou: "Am I going to Jinling too?"

Tan Wenbin: "Yes, to meet the partner arranged for you."

Lin Shuyou: "I can take Brother Bin there, but let’s forget about the matchmaking for now."

Tan Wenbin: "Just a side task, Yunyun has already discussed with her classmates."

Child: "Go meet, go meet, go meet!"

Lin Shuyou supported Tan Wenbin downstairs, planted his Double Mace on the ground, using it as a cane for Tan Wenbin, letting him stand in the circle at the center.

Deng Chen also came down, sequentially sending one halo into the circle, and finally stood in the last circle himself.

Five circles, representing the five aspects in the "Five Senses Diagram."

Li Zhiyuan walked to the Heaven and Earth Table, flicked his right hand, and the copper coin sword was sacrificed.

In the last wave, after he fainted, the copper coin sword was used by Zhao Yi, but once he woke up, Zhao Yi immediately returned the sword.

It’s impossible not to return it, because Zhao Yi knows if he dares to keep the sword stealthily, Li’s family would dare to set out for Jiujiang the next day to move his family treasury.

To take a few rare items in exchange wouldn’t be a loss for Jiujiang Zhao, but Li has been poor for a long time, and given the chance he’d surely go to scrape the ground.

The copper coin sword was waved, igniting the candle, then thrust towards the incense burner, no incense was there, yet the incense burned on its own.

The Array also activated at this time.

All around, intense shaking occurred, normally requiring extensive preparation to maintain stability here, Li Zhiyuan took a shortcut and adapted to local conditions.

Only saw the youth stretching his left hand forward, making a grabbing motion towards the Peach Forest, while waving the copper coin sword with his right hand, pulling the Feng Shui phenomena above the Peach Forest over.

This Peach Forest, capable of forming a pressure covering all of Nantong, now borrowing a bit to suppress the Array, was indeed a minor matter.

The Array instantly stabilized.

Underneath the dam, five circles emitted different lights.

Li Zhiyuan said solemnly:

"For a period of ten years, loyal and unbetraying, I grant freedoms!"

Concise words; servitude is certain, but the contract is set for ten years.

Actually, in ten years, Zou Jiang surely will finish the journey, either drowning in the Jiang Shui or becoming Dragon King.

A half off cut, a five-year term is also possible.

But five years doesn’t sound as good as ten years.

With the freedom term already making the four spirit beasts below excited, upon hearing it’s only ten years, intense shaking occurred within the four circles.

Ten years, to them, hardly meant anything, even if Li Zhiyuan set the term for a hundred years, a hundred, two hundred, or even three hundred years, once this generation is over they may continue as family or sect guardian beasts, this would be an act of mercy.

After ten years, those wishing to continue staying inside Tan Wenbin can do so, while those unwilling can be let go freely, by then having merited added not only will they be much stronger, but also the downside of being demon spirits will be washed away by merit.

Li Zhiyuan held the copper coin sword, pointed at the first circle, next, he would call by name one by one, helping Tan Wenbin establish the primary-secondary relationship within these ten years.

The first to be pointed at, was the Green Bull.

"Are you willing to submit?"

The Green Bull knelt down, bowing its head to the ground, towards Li Zhiyuan, indicating willingness to submit.

Li Zhiyuan pointed the copper coin sword at Tan Wenbin, indicating it knelt to the wrong person.

The Green Bull quickly shifted its body, facing Tan Wenbin, letting out three heavy breaths.

Li Zhiyuan pointed the copper coin sword at the red monkey.

Even before the tip of the sword reached it, the monkey had already knelt before Tan Wenbin.

Next was the white centipede.

It coiled its body, lowered its head, making a gesture of submission to Tan Wenbin.

Finally, was Deng Chen.

Deng Chen spread his arms, his spirit stayed in place, his body then retreated from the circle, sitting on the ground, head hung low, deceased.

The Double-headed Python first saluted Li Zhiyuan, then saluted Tan Wenbin, expressing submission.

In this process, they did not feel humiliated.

Not only did Li Zhiyuan feel the need to establish rules early, but they also felt it should be so, without rules one cannot form a combined force, better not to have Tan Wenbin die on the Zou Jiang journey causing all their future dreams to be for naught.

Furthermore, they’ve witnessed how Tan Wenbin treated those two children, even nominally as master and servant, they believe they can certainly get along with Tan Wenbin very well.
