"This might be the only chance to break the situation! The Candle Dragon handed it to me, perhaps wanting me to change the future of this time and space?"
Chen Mo thought to himself.
However, this Candle Dragon Scale also holds great uncertainty.
Because the power granted by the future "self" carries significant uncertainty.
If Xiao Jiu uses it and the summoned future Xiao Jiu has only totem-level strength, then facing the Desire Mother Tree would be pointless.
It would also waste a mythical artifact for nothing.
At least now there’s hope!
Chen Mo decided to let Xiao Jiu give it a try when the time comes; if the future Xiao Jiu isn’t strong enough, he’s ready to make a run for it.
There was a knock on the door.
Tuantuan opened the door, revealing the tall, black-dressed Enchanting Demon Queen Lilith.
Her eyes were red, clearly from crying not too long ago.
"Chen Mo, my mother said you have the ability to travel through past and future. Is that true?"
Lilith’s voice was somewhat hoarse.
"At the moment, I don’t have that ability, but in the future, it’s hard to say."
Chen Mo answered honestly.
Tuantuan possesses time attributes, plus his entry skills are overpowered, so who knows, maybe one day Tuantuan can take him traveling freely through the Time Mother River.
"Alright, I understand. Chen Mo, then I’m willing for you to establish a contract."
Hearing this, Lilith lifted her head, eyes meeting Chen Mo’s directly.
In the eyes of this originally proud Enchanting Demon Queen, there was some sorrow, but more determination.
Chen Mo didn’t agree immediately.
If he establishes a contract with an Enchanting Demon and goes back, explaining it to Sister Meng... might be troublesome.
After considering comprehensively, Chen Mo decided to contract Lilith.
Firstly, since he’s already benefitted from the Enchanting Demon Empress so much, it’s not good to just walk away without giving something back. Secondly, the Enchanting Demon Queen’s talents are excellent, and they currently don’t have any spiritual or demon-type Spiritual Beast in the team.
The most important point is—contracting Lilith doesn’t take up a contract slot, it’s basically a freebie!
"Alright. But let me clarify first! Our relationship is... partners, or family. Not companions, so don’t have any inappropriate thoughts about me!"
Chen Mo said righteously.
Isn’t this sentence supposed to be said by her!?
However, because of this, she felt relieved inside.
Originally, she was a little worried that Chen Mo might use his position as a lord to force her into doing things she didn’t want to do.
Now it seems she was overthinking it.
Lilith said softly; her voice was filled with allure and a touch of shyness.
The contract was conducted using a secret technique unique to the Enchanting Demon Clan, so it was led by Lilith.
The contract went smoothly, and the moment it was completed, Chen Mo felt a special connection established between himself and Lilith, similar to contracts with other Spiritual Beasts before.
At the same time, his spiritual power increased significantly, and the area of the Spiritual Space expanded once more.
This is the benefit of contracting a spiritual-type Spiritual Beast.
At this moment, Xiao Jiu suddenly let out a surprised hum, and pointed its little paw at Chen Mo’s right arm.
Following Xiao Jiu’s direction, Chen Mo saw that there was a new red Enchanting Demon Pattern on his arm, looking very seductive.
"Lilith, can this Enchanting Demon Pattern be hidden?"
Chen Mo quickly asked.
How could a macho man have an Enchanting Demon Pattern tattooed on him!
The problem is—it’s hard to explain to Sister Meng when he gets back!
If not, he’ll probably have to wear long sleeves all the time in the future.
The Enchanting Demon Lady didn’t waste words, and immediately helped Chen Mo hide the Enchanting Demon Pattern.
This Enchanting Demon Pattern essentially resembles the Spiritual Space, containing an independent space suitable for an Enchanting Demon to reside.
"Chen Mo, I’m going to accompany my mother for a bit. If you need anything, you can... tell me through telepathy."
After establishing the contract, she felt much closer to Chen Mo.
After Lilith left, Chen Mo sensed the Enchanting Demon Pattern on his arm to check the basic information of this Enchanting Demon Queen.
[Spiritual Beast: Enchanting Demon Queen (Clan)]
[Attributes: Shadow, Spirit, Demon]
[Growth Level: Third-stage Monarch]
[Race Level: Overlord First Stage]
[Mastered Techniques: Night Slash (Mastery), Mental Control (Mastery), Annihilation Slash (Mastery), Allure (Proficient), Enchanting Embrace (Proficient), Soul Drain (Proficient)...]
[Equipped Entries: None]
[Available Entries: 0(14)]
Chen Mo was somewhat surprised.
Lilith has mastered three high-level techniques to the level of mastery!
To know that she was without cheats before!
It demonstrates her amazing talent and perseverance.
"Great, with Lilith’s bit of talent and bit of diligence, plus the help of the entries manual, I’m sure the Enchanting Demon Lady should soon become another major asset under my command!"
Chen Mo thought joyfully to himself.
In the following days, Chen Mo continued making Extraordinary Cuisine in his room.
Xiao Jiu and the others trained under the [Scroll God]’s buff.
During this time, Xinghai used the Star Energy contained in the [Meteor from Beyond] to light up another main star.
Now, they’re just one main star away from lighting up the entire Eastern Constellation!
Xinghai was very excited. Because as soon as the Eastern Constellation is lit, it can draw strength from the Azure Dragon Star Constellation, exponentially boosting its power, and hopefully returning to Tier 0 of the version!
