Zhang Deming nodded and said, "Right. It shouldn't be a problem."
Zhang Deming studied it for a moment, his expression shifting slightly. A tiny vine extended into the eyeball in the snake's head.
Immediately, the snake's eye actually blinked a few times, no longer looking so hollow.
Zhang Deming began experimenting, manipulating the vines inside the snake's body. After several practice runs, the Shocking Water Snake truly seemed to have come alive.
With everything ready, Zhang Deming glanced at the faintly lit sky, coiled the snake's body, and withdrew the Growth Technique.
As the vines turned into motes of light, the plump Shocking Water Snake deflated.
Zhang Deming left the Cave Mansion, returned silently to his room, lay down on his bed, and fell asleep.
When he woke again, it was already morning.
As usual, he got up early, sealed his Spiritual Power, and practiced a set of martial forms in the courtyard for exercise.
