Chapter 1083 - 1082: Rewards for Merit
"Of course, I, Tang Rao, have never gone back on my word."The Hellfire Shark trusted Tang Rao, the person who had saved it multiple times. It had no reason not to trust him.
"But if you want to leave, you must establish a contract relationship with me. Are you willing?" ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ novel fire.net
Tang Rao explained the pros and cons to the Hellfire Shark, and after a moment of silence, it nodded.
"I am willing."
Establishing a contractual relationship with Tang Rao wasn't much of a disadvantage. Its life was saved by Tang Rao, so it had no regrets.
Sure enough, after establishing a contract relationship, the Hellfire Shark transformed into a small creature with hands and feet.
Its body size could be adjusted, and upon realizing this, the Hellfire Shark was overjoyed.
"Wow, you're the first immortal beast to come out of the endless sea. So you guys can change size and shape too."
Tang Rao watched the Hellfire Shark's transformation, a feeling that was indescribable to most people.
"Thank you, Tang Rao."
Who would believe that the guard of the endless sea could turn into a cute little creature?
"You're welcome. I'll first take you to meet our folks here."
Tang Rao led the Hellfire Shark ashore.
Uncle Zhou and Wen Guifu were waiting on the shore. Watching Tang Rao establish a contract relationship with a character akin to the sea overlord, they genuinely admired him.
"Great-grandfather, Uncle Zhou, this is my new friend, the Hellfire Shark."
Wen Guifu had met the Hellfire Shark many years ago. The Hellfire Shark greeted Wen Guifu and called him 'Senior Wen'.
It seemed the Hellfire Shark hadn't forgotten Wen Guifu.
"Not bad, kid, you've made great progress. Your contributions to the endless sea over the years have been significant."
If not for the sake of the Hellfire Shark, Wen Guifu wouldn't have told Tang Rao how to save it.
"The endless sea should calm down for a while. The urgent task is to build shelters for the disaster victims in the Land of Immortals, to prevent further chaos around."
Tang Rao's words were very reasonable, but after all, he wasn't the Emperor, and couldn't handle everything. Money doesn't grow on trees.
"Didn't your sect plant a herb garden nearby? Why not let these people work in the herb garden to earn Immortal Stones?"
The suggestion given to Tang Rao by Old Hezi was good. The climate had been favorable recently, making it the ideal time to renovate the herb garden. Missing the opportunity would cost substantial money.
"That's right, hire some beautiful women to work here, not bad, not bad."
People joked about how quickly Tang Rao agreed, thinking he just wanted to hire some female workers. Tang Rao's thoughts, you can imagine, were somewhat indecent.
"Can we not be so indecent in our thinking, just hire a few girls, not too many."
Li Ze chimed in, aware of what kind of person Tang Rao was—affectionate but not promiscuous. Someone like him pursued true love and wouldn't hire people for a herb garden.
"I'll first take you back to Kao Shan Sect. The brothers there have worked hard recently, and we should celebrate properly."
Tang Rao's words resonated with several people's hearts.
He believed if he had food, his brothers should too. After returning with his gains, he would think of celebrating with his brothers.
This was also why, before going to the third world, Tang Rao wanted to leave countless treasures for his brothers.
The first time the Hellfire Shark came to the Land of Immortals, it was very excited to see the sect houses and beautiful scenery here.
It even wondered why the place was so wonderful, why people would still want to go to the third world.
"This place is so beautiful, even more so than our endless sea, simply stunning to the point of taking one's breath away."
It was the same expression Tang Rao had when he came from the Nine Realms of Seventy-two Domains to Blue Star.
The first time he went to Blue Star, it was like Liu Laolao going into the Grand View Garden, everything was new and strange to him.
"There's even better inside, Little Fire Shark, I'm telling you, in Kao Shan Sect you can touch anything, except for women, got it?"
As they reached the entrance of Kao Shan Sect, Tang Rao kept warning the Hellfire Shark.
Any woman there could be the Hellfire Shark's sister-in-law. If the shark got infatuated with a woman and couldn't move forward, who would Tang Rao cry to?
"Women? What are women?"
Haha, cough, cough, cough.
It seemed Tang Rao was overthinking it.
The people around laughed themselves into silly 200-kilogram idiots watching this scene.
"Tonight, I'll treat you to some meat and show you some good stuff."
It had been a long time since he watched a movie, so he considered showing everyone an open-air movie in the evening. In the future, it would be hard for everyone to see these rare things.
After entering Kao Shan Sect, Tang Rao didn't want the Hellfire Shark running around everywhere, afraid it would cause trouble. He simply put the Hellfire Shark into his personal palace. This was another world, with mountains and water, and the Hellfire Shark liked it as soon as it entered.
As for Tang Rao, he was still fond of his harem, no, the other women in his backyard.
Tu Hongxiu sat sunbathing in the small courtyard, her face a fair rosy hue, lips cherry without rouge. She likely learned the forehead decoration from Bai Xiaotong, making her exceptionally enchanting.
"Hong Xiu, you're truly beautiful."
With no one around, Tang Rao leaned in and gave Tu Hongxiu a hard kiss on the lips.
"See, I knew Tang Rao would come back and first see Sister Hongxiu."
The women obediently came out.
They all covered their faces and giggled, but among them, You Xiaoxiao laughed the most.
"What you guys had was nothing. If we'd come out a little later, Tang Rao could've pounced on Sister Hongxiu right here. Someone as hungry as he is would do anything."
Although You Xiaoxiao hadn't slept with Tang Rao, she knew him very well. She couldn't express what kind of feeling it was.
"Hungry? If I were hungry, you would've been devoured by me long ago, would you still have the strength to talk here?"
Tang Rao's words made You Xiaoxiao immediately shut her mouth.
"Xiao Xiao, little sister, say a few words less. You know what kind of person Tang Rao is—sharp-tongued but good-hearted."
Good-hearted?
You Xiaoxiao had never seen a time when Tang Rao was good-hearted.
"Tang Rao is the most annoying, I hate Tang Rao the most."
You Xiaoxiao ran away.
"Sheng Xuan, dear, let hubby take a look if your belly has grown, I'm going to be a dad, I want the whole world to know this good news."
Tang Rao said as he caressed Li Shengxuan's belly, receiving glares from all the beauties.
"What do you think pregnancy is about? It's not something that grows bigger every other day."
Tang Rao realized, oh, that's true. He'd seen others have babies before, and they didn't just pop out.
"I was too impatient, that's my fault."
Tang Rao laughed sheepishly, a few Space Rings appearing in his palm, gifts prepared for the beauties long ago.
"Sheng Xuan giving birth deserves a reward, there are more gifts than anybody else, so no one should be jealous. Next time, if anyone gives me a chubby baby boy, I'll reward them too."
With that, Tang Rao handed Sheng Xuan her Space Ring.
