Faced with Zhang Yu's aura brimming with fighting spirit and determination, Wa Wa thought to herself, "This Zhang Yu has changed so much in just over two months, even in his will and spirit? What kind of potential has been unleashed in him?"

If it were the old Wa Wa, she certainly wouldn't have cared about Zhang Yu's threat; she had plenty of ways to deal with him.

But at this moment, she was extremely weak, and even more so, she had a strong desire to climb Kunxu again and reclaim everything that was hers.

The Wa Wa sighed inwardly, "Well, the barefoot aren't afraid of those wearing shoes. There's no need to waste my breath on this poor guy on this floor. I'll use a clever trick to dangle him along with a carrot."

After thinking for a moment, the Wa Wa changed her tone and said gently, "Don't be nervous, Zhang Yu. I've come to find you because an incredible stroke of luck has fallen into your lap."

Zhang Yu then asked a question that had been on his mind for a long time, "Did you send Zhou Tianyi?"

"Zhou Tianyi? Who's that? I don't know him."

The Wa Wa seemed unaware of who Zhang Yu was referring to, nor did she seem to care. Instead, she continued with her previous topic, "You achieved what you have today only after I unleashed your potential. Don't you want to further enhance your potential?"

Potential to be boosted again?

Zhang Yu suddenly thought of the table of contents of the Feather Scroll. He had previously thought that the current Feather Scroll only had a prologue, which might mean that there was more content to come.

Now, hearing what the Rag Doll said, his guess seemed to be confirmed.

Zhang Yu thought to himself, "As expected, my potential is not limited to this. If Feather Scroll hadn't failed to fully unleash my potential, my scores and performance in competitions would be much higher and stronger."

"Alas, in the end, I was still dragged down by Feather Scroll."

To Wa Wa, Zhang Yu's slight silence was already a sign that he was interested.

So she quickly said, "Let's cooperate and climb Kunxu together. With my assistance, you will surely stand atop Kunxu, become an immortal, and achieve financial and spiritual freedom."

Zhang Yu was wary of this Evil God from beginning to end, so he wasn't easily fooled.

In contrast, he was more concerned about wishes. "Can wishes be revoked?"

The Wa Wa naturally denied it, but Zhang Yu didn't believe her.

After a brief struggle, Zhang Yu repeatedly threatened suicide, finally saying, "This Ritual Power is so rigid and predictable, like a stupid program. How could you not have left a backup plan?"

The Evil God sighed softly, "Then you should also know that if I were to withdraw my wish, wouldn't I be at your mercy?"

"Do you think I would agree to that? Don't make such unrealistic demands. We're in the same boat now, let's talk about something practical."

After that tug-of-war, the Wa Wa realized that Zhang Yu was no longer as easy to talk to as before.

Zhang Yu is no longer the incompetent student she used to bully. He is now steel-willed, decisive, and possesses the means to take her down with him, along with the power to carry it out.

Wa Wa understood... that under the current circumstances... the other party had the right to negotiate with her, so she also planned to make some concessions.

Wa Wa: "Alright then, to show my sincerity, I'll withdraw the wish I just made while kneeling."

Zhang Yu: "And my wish to let you go."

Wa Wa: "Okay, okay, take both of them back."

No one knew what the Wa Wa had done, but a moment later, Zhang Yu exited his cultivation state and found that the two wishes were no longer binding him.

The Wa Wa continued, "Now you can put me down and we can have a proper talk, right? It's very disrespectful to carry me like this."

Zhang Yu chuckled and said, "Holding you in my grasp is the only way I can threaten you. Do you think it's appropriate for me to let go?"

The Wa Wa sighed inwardly, "They really haven't let their guard down at all."

Zhang Yu continued, "Since you refuse to withdraw your wish and still want to use the Ritual to control me, then I have no choice but to carry you with me at all times, ensuring that I can perish together with you at any moment."

Wa Wa: "You..."

The next moment, she was startled, because she saw streaks of Formless Cloud Gang emerging from Zhang Yu Zhang Yu's body, like clouds of mist surging out of his body.

The Wa Wa exclaimed in surprise, "This is the performance of Level 10 Limitless Cloud Hand? Your Limitless Cloud Hand is Level 10? It's only been two months! How is this possible?"

Zhang Yu said calmly, "I hope you understand that with this move, as long as you are by my side, I can attack you with the Formless Cloud Gang at any time."

The Wa Wa's gaze towards Zhang Yu became increasingly different. She thought to herself, "This boy's potential seems even more terrifying than I originally anticipated, but in that case... it's fine. With his help... perhaps I really can go up there and retrieve what's mine."

If Zhang Yu remains weak and incompetent, even if the Wa Wa gains his complete loyalty, he will still look down on Zhang Yu.

But after Zhang Yu demonstrated his strength and potential, even though she couldn't completely control Zhang Yu, Wa Wa still thought more highly of him.

So she proposed her cooperation plan again. "I'll help you enhance your potential and help you climb Kunxu, and all you have to do is take me up with you along the way."

Zhang Yu squeezed the Wa Wa in his hand and said, "Is there any way I can carry you with me?"

The Wa Wa chuckled, and in the blink of an eye, its size shrank, shrank, and shrank again, transforming from a cat-sized Rag Doll into a black rosary about the size of a thumb.

Zhang Yu casually found a rope, put the thumb-sized black prayer beads around his neck, and asked, "You're not usually detected as Evil God, are you?"

The Wa Wa laughed and said, "Although I'm not at my peak, my ability to conceal my abilities is something those lowly individuals can't detect." Zhang Yu nodded and then said, "Then come on, let's enhance my potential."

The Wa Wa chuckled awkwardly, "Of course, it's not something you can just improve on your own. But it's not actually that difficult. As long as you help me hunt down the other Evil God on this level, and I absorb his power, I can increase your potential."

Zhang Yu grabbed the Wa Wa in his palm with one hand. "Are you kidding me?"

"I'm only a first-year high school student, and you want me to fight another Evil God?"

The Wa Wa quickly explained, "I didn't tell you to act immediately. You should accumulate more strength, and you can act when you're strong enough."

But Zhang Yu became curious. "Where is that Evil God? What is its strength? Does it have any followers?"

The Wa Wa said, "There should be one hidden behind Songyang High School, and there should be one hidden over at White Dragon High School as well."

"As for strength, the most powerful Evil God King all receive faith in the Eighteenth Underground Layer. The Evil God that rise up are stronger the higher they climb. The Evil God that remain on the First Layer aren't that powerful."

"However, we still need to investigate the specifics of these two Evil God hiding in high schools, such as where they are hiding and who their followers are."

Zhang Yu rolled his eyes. This Evil God wanted to improve his potential right away, but then he had to deal with another Evil God and investigate the specific situation himself.

"This Evil God is full of empty boasts; he certainly can't be trusted easily."

The latest novels are first published on 69shuba!

So Zhang Yu stopped listening to the other person's boasting and instead opened his phone, intending to quickly find some money-making work.

After experiencing the effects of the Primordial Pill, Zhang Yu no longer wanted to cultivate naked without consuming anything.

"If I had the money to use the Primordial Pill every day, my Physical Strength would increase, and my speed would definitely be 80% or 90% faster than before."

"The gap is too big, how can I concentrate on my An An cultivation?"

He sighed inwardly, "It's truly difficult to go from extravagance to frugality."

After talking for a while, the Evil God realized that Zhang Yu was no longer paying attention to him, so he simply climbed onto Zhang Yu's shoulder to see what the other was doing.

The Wa Wa thought to herself, "No, I need to make Zhang Yu rely on me more and realize my importance before I can proceed with the rest of the plan."

After looking at it for a while, the Wa Wa suddenly said, "You want to make money?"

"Isn't that obvious? Who in the entire Kunxu doesn't want to make money?" Zhang Yu replied casually.

The Wa Wa then asked, "Hehe, making money through legitimate means isn't that easy. You'll just get played by those big companies, exploited and drained, toiling your whole life only to end up with a pittance."

"If a poor person wants to make money, they have to break the rules and go down the dark path."

Zhang Yu frowned. "The underworld?"

His mind was filled with all sorts of erotic, violent, and vicious things.

Just as Zhang Yu was about to refuse outright, he heard Wa Wa continue, "I have connections in the Dark Tutoring World. Do you want to give it a try?"

"The Dark Tutoring World?"

Zhang Yu hesitated and asked, "How much darker can tutoring be?"

"Scamming students? Taking money and running away? Getting students to take out loans and apply for credit cards?"

To Zhang Yu's words, Wa Wa scoffed, "What kind of nonsense is this? How many tutoring institutions haven't done this kind of thing?"

"The Dark Tutoring World I'm referring to is illegal tutoring!"

"I won't buy the rights to disseminate the Cultivation Method! I won't buy the teaching rights! I won't buy any rights whatsoever, I'll just take the money and give the students extra lessons!"

"Illegal tutoring... although the prices are much lower than those of legitimate tutoring classes, because it doesn't buy the rights to disseminate or teach any Cultivation Method... it actually earns more!"

"With your Level 10 Limitless Cloud Hand, you're definitely qualified to tutor and teach others Limitless Cloud Hand."

"But you probably don't dare reveal your Level 10 Limitless Cloud Hand normally, right? Then the Dark Tutoring World is perfect for you; you can hide your identity and sell lessons there."

But Zhang Yu was no longer a novice who had just arrived in Kunxu; he had a good understanding of many things about Kunxu.

Upon hearing this, cold sweat poured down his forehead.

"Are you crazy? Not buying the distribution rights for this kind of shady tutoring... wouldn't that offend large tutoring institutions and the companies that develop these Cultivation Method?"

"Damn, even if I went to rob someone, it would be as safe as a picnic compared to this."

The Wa Wa, however, chuckled dismissively, "In Kunxu, if you're not willing to take risks, how can you make big money? Can the profits from mere robbery compare to illegal tutoring? Or do you want to work yourself to death for the rest of your life?"

"Let me tell you, there are quite a few big shots in the Dark Tutoring World who earn tens of millions a year."
