Gem Snakes, Hatched!

The operation of the cultivation center was gradually getting on the right track, which was both a good and a bad thing for Zhang Xuan.

The good thing was that the sales of the moon dew cream were increasing day by day, so there was a huge amount of money coming in every day. Under the influence of the commercial effect, some customers were also willing to entrust their familiars to Zhang Xuan for training.

On the other hand, Zhang Xuan's moon dew cream was sold at almost no cost. He picked the moon dew grass himself and made it himself. The only thing that could be counted as a cost was the supplementary materials.

Thus, Zhang Xuan was able to earn a lot. In just a week, Zhang Xuan had made a profit of more than 100,000. 

As for the disadvantage, Zhang Xuan's time was getting tighter. During this period, he had to take care of the shop and make moon dew cream every day. He had been busy from morning to night, and even his care of Little Moon had slackened.

Gradually, Zhang Xuan realized that something was wrong. If he wanted to gain a firm foothold in this time, the strength of his familiars was the only thing that mattered.

He could not neglect Little Moon's growth for the sake of immediate benefits.

However, he couldn't let go of the store's business. After all, he needed money to pay for in-game purchases, and the cultivation center was his main source of income at the moment.

Thus, Zhang Xuan decided to hire a helper.

That night, after Zhang Xuan was done with his work and applied moon dew cream for Little Moon, he turned on his computer and posted a recruitment notice on the beast tamer job recruitment platform.

The beast tamer job recruitment platform was the official recruitment platform of this world. All recruitment information could be posted on it, and those who are interested in a job can contact me online.

It was getting late, so Zhang Xuan didn't stare at the reply. Instead, he went to the incubator and waited.

Previously, he had brought back two Gem Snake eggs from the immortal cultivation world. After such a long time, these two snake eggs had reached the day of incubation.

These two nights, Zhang Xuan would come to the incubator from time to time. After joining the immortal cultivation system and entering Qi Gathering level 3, not only had Zhang Xuan's physical body been optimized, but his five senses and six senses had also become stronger.

Although he had not reached the immortal realm of hearing and seeing, his senses were already much stronger than ordinary people's.

At 1 am, Zhang Xuan, who was waiting in front of the hatchery, heard a faint rustling sound. Instantly, his eyes shone with anticipation. It looked like the Gem Snake had hatched!

Zhang Xuan didn't rush to open the incubator. Instead, he waited for a while.

About ten minutes later, he opened the incubator excitedly. Sure enough, he saw that the two snake eggs inside had been broken open, and two small snakes as thick as a thumb were trying to crawl inside.

The texture of the Gem Snake's eggshell was not hard. After the little snake hatched, the eggshell caved in.

After Zhang Xuan cleaned the eggshells, he carefully placed the two little snakes into the sandboxes that he had prepared.

Although an adult Gem Snake could be as long as 20 meters and had hard scales, the scales of a baby Gem Snake that had just hatched had not yet formed and were very fragile.

He placed the two young Gem Snakes under the light and noticed that they had different colors. They were not blood-red like their mother. Instead, one was moon-white and the other green.

For no reason, Zhang Xuan thought about the vicious snake that dared to sleep with people. Thinking about this, he smiled.

"Since you're both green and white, I'll just call you Little Green and Little White."

Naturally, the two little snakes didn't know what Zhang Xuan was mumbling about. They had just hatched and weren't used to the light, so they were still moving around restlessly.

Zhang Xuan played with Little Green and Little White for a while before looking for their attributes.

Among the demonic beasts in the immortal cultivation world, especially between similar species, there were often some cross-breeding situations. Therefore, even though their mother was a Gem Snake, the bloodline of the two little fellows might not be pure.

Luckily, Zhang Xuan was overthinking this time. After a round of searching, he was sure that although the scales of the two little fellows were different, they were both pure Gem Snakes.

Under the light, Zhang Xuan took a closer look. He could see that although their scales were small, they gave off a bright glow.

When these two little fellows grew up, the scales on their bodies would definitely be as warm as beautiful jade, shining like precious stones.

A pure-blooded Gem Snake's bloodline could reach advanced transcendent, which was even rarer than the beginner transcendent Silver Moon Wolf.

Of course, apart from her own wind attribute, Little Moon had also mutated into an ice attribute. With two attributes, she was not inferior to an extraordinary higher-ranked bloodline.

"I have to train these two little guys well. This way, I'll have more combat power in the future."

A beastmaster could have many familiars. The more familiars they had, the stronger the beastmaster would naturally be.

A reptilian demonic beast like the Gem Snake would usually recognize any creature it saw as its blood relative. In other words, Zhang Xuan was now the father of the two little fellows.

With this relationship, Zhang Xuan's affinity with the two little ones wouldn't be lower than Little Moon's.

Zhang Xuan wouldn't reject these two familiars that came to his door. Now that the cultivation center was open, he didn't have to worry about not being able to afford it.

With these two little snakes, Zhang Xuan's days became busier.

Just as Zhang Xuan expected, Little Green and Little White treated him as their father. After that night, they started to cling onto him, either on his wrist or on his shoulder.

Zhang Xuan also took care of Little Green and Little White every day to ensure that they could grow up smoothly. Moon dew cream, earth spirit essence, and other cultivation materials could be used freely. 

However, when Little Moon saw that Zhang Xuan had a new favorite, she began to throw a tantrum.

When Zhang Xuan wasn't paying attention, Little Moon would bare her teeth and scare the two kids. Although she didn't have any bad intentions, Zhang Xuan was still worried and had to go over to comfort her.

Little Green and Little White were still young. If Little Moon was not paying attention, the two little ones might get reincarnated.

Not only that, but whenever Zhang Xuan was taking care of Little Green and Little White, Little Moon would always walk around him and pounce on him from time to time. After that, Little Moon would turn her back to him to express her dissatisfaction.

Zhang Xuan could tell that Little Moon was jealous. Facing this situation, he felt like his head was about to explode. He was already busy enough with the shop, and with the three familiars fighting for his attention, Zhang Xuan was completely overwhelmed.

Luckily, the tough days didn't last long. A few days later, there was finally a response to Zhang Xuan's recruitment post.

At noon, the door of the cultivation center was knocked on. The person was a girl with short hair and curved eyebrows. When she saw Zhang Xuan, she smiled.

"Are you the boss? I'm here to apply for the job you posted."

Zhang Xuan sized up the girl and nodded. "Yes, I am."

Without waiting for Zhang Xuan to ask, the girl introduced herself.

"Hello, boss. My name is Yan Xinyue. You can call me Yue. I'm currently in my second year of high school. 

"I'm going to awaken my familiar space next year and sign a contract with my familiar, so I want to practice and understand more about familiars in preparation for signing a contract in the future.

"A few days ago, I saw the recruitment notice on the internet and wanted to give it a try.

"Boss, do you think I'm good enough?"
