This person is at the peak of his foundation-building cultivation. His real name is unknown. He only knows his surname is Li. He ranks third in the series of simultaneous transmissions of blood skills and is known as "Li San".

Li San has extensive experience in the Demon Sect and has strong cultivation. Once he reaches the golden elixir, he will be qualified to be promoted to "elder".

And his cultivation is only one step away from the golden elixir.

He has been in the Demon Sect for a long time, so he must have accumulated a lot of Demonic Honors. It would not be a problem to redeem them for the Inverse Spirit Array worth 3,000 points.

After the exchange, it is not easy to arouse suspicion.

The most important thing is that he is greedy.

There is no demon sect monk who is not greedy, and this Li San is especially greedy.

Greed is the best advantage of human nature.

Mo Hua sent a message to Li San under the guise of "Elder You":

"You want to become an elder?"

The disciples of the Demon Sect all aspire to become elders, and this desire is even greater than that of the righteous path.

The blood technique they practice follows the "transfer system".

The elders who teach the skills suck the blood of the disciples who teach the skills, and the disciples who teach the skills go out to suck the blood of ordinary disciples. The blood of ordinary disciples goes out to suck the blood of innocent monks.

The disciples are all "exploited" by the elders.

Once you become an "elder", it means you have a certain degree of autonomy, you don't need to "make offerings", and you also have certain privileges to "pass on the merits".

The Demon Sect has no taboos. Compared to other sects, the "elders" have greater power and can do whatever they want.

Therefore, no disciple wants to become an elder.

But this elder is not something they can become if they want to.

The oppression within the Demon Sect is more direct, and the superiority and inferiority are more clearly defined. Each elder is in a trap. If they want to climb up, they have to see if other elders recognize it.

Secondly, due to the limitations of the blood-sucking skills that are exploited at all levels, without the permission of the "elder" level demon cultivator, and without the extra blood essence and blood rewarded by the golden elixir demon cultivator, it is simply wishful thinking for these foundation-building disciples to break through the golden elixir.

Therefore, the word "elder" is full of temptation.

Demon Sect, in an unknown stronghold.

Li San, who was thin, pale-faced and with sinister eyes, immediately trembled when he received the news from Mo Hua, and his whole body was shaking with excitement.

Huge joy impacted his soul.

The opportunities and possibilities revealed in this sentence made his long-awaited heart even more eager to move.

But at the same time, he couldn't help but wonder:

Why?

"Why did Elder You send me this message? What does he mean? Does he want to... nominate me as an elder?"

"Is there such a thing as pie in the sky?"

Li San, who has been in the Demon Sect all year round, even though he is greedy, he still has the vigilance he should have.

"Elder You, this disciple is stupid. I don't know...what do you mean by this?"

Li San pretended to go his own way.

But this message was like mud in the sea, and there was no response.

Li San felt uneasy and didn't know what Elder You was thinking.

Is he angry, or is he unavailable to reply to me because of something else, or is he not satisfied with my answer and doesn't bother to reply?

Li San began to speculate on the meaning of the ink painting.

But the more I speculated, the more clueless I felt.

He had no idea what the "Elder You" across from him was hiding in his belly.

He didn't dare to ask in person.

He was unwilling to leave it alone.

If this sentence is true... Elder You really wants to "promote" himself and make himself an elder.

However, by pretending to be reserved and not showing any special sincerity, he would actually make Elder You give up on him, thereby losing this opportunity to "make progress".

When he thought of this, Li San couldn't help but feel regretful.

His attitude towards this matter also gradually changed, from the alertness of "How could there be such a good thing like pie in the sky?" to the regret of "Why didn't I seize this opportunity?"

Just at this moment, the token trembled.

Li San was excited for a moment and quickly looked down, only to find himself in an ice cellar.

"Idiot, forget it."

These four simple words from "Elder You" made Li San's face turn pale instantly.

At this time, he had concluded that "Elder You" initially wanted to give him a chance to help him rise to power.

But his hesitant behavior disappointed Elder You.

Only Elder You would call himself "idiot" and say "forget it".

The chance is gone...

Li San was anxious, his hands were trembling, and he quickly sent a message:

"Elder! Your Excellency has a lot!"

"It's my disciple who is stupid and ignorant. I beg you to give me another chance. If you give me any instructions, I will go through fire and water at all costs! Please give me this chance!"

Li San was sincere, but there was no reply from the other party.

There was only one chance, or even just one word, one reply, which could change his life. But he only hesitated for a moment and pretended to be smart, so he missed it.

Li San was filled with regret.

But he didn't want to give up.

"Elder! Please, please give this disciple another chance!"

"Elder! I am willing to do anything."

"Elder! I am loyal to you and will never change my mind!"

"Elder! Please believe me, I am absolutely loyal to you!"

After that, every morning, noon and evening, he would send a message to "Mo Hua" to express his "loyalty" attitude.

In this way, after three days of hard work, he finally got his reward. He received a reply from "Elder You":

"Um."

Li San was ecstatic, but at the same time, he was a little confused.

What does this word "um" mean?

Did Elder You know his loyalty, did Elder You forgive his stupidity, or was he willing to give himself another chance?

Li San pondered the "deep meaning" of the ink painting in his mind.

But he didn't know that this was actually just a word that Mo Hua casually replied to him while he was eating chicken legs. It had no special meaning.

In this way, he was worried all day long with this "hmm".

At night, just as Li San was "contemplating the holy will" and worrying about gains and losses, he finally received another message from "Elder You":

"Have you thought about it?"

Have you considered it?

Li San was startled, and then he suddenly remembered what Elder You had originally asked him:

Do you want to become an elder?

This time he didn't hesitate at all, "Yes!"

Mo Hua asked again: "Do you understand what I mean?"

Li San hesitated for a moment, a little unsure, but through previous contacts, he guessed that Elder You would appreciate the kind of bold, ruthless, determined and ambitious people.

The most important thing is to be ambitious.

Li San said: "Elder, do you want to...elect me as the new 'elder' of the Demon Sect?"

Mo Hua asked: "Why should I do this?"

Li San was confused by the question.

After a moment, he understood. In this world, no one would give others benefits for nothing, let alone an elder-level figure like "Elder You".

If he wants to promote himself, he must also provide corresponding value.

Li San was heartbroken and gritted his teeth and said:

"From now on, I believe that I am willing to be your most loyal 'hyena' and obey your orders. One day, if I receive your gift and become an elder, I will also obey you and never have any second thoughts in this life!"
