His Mental Power flowed like quicksilver, pouring into the snake's brain unimpeded!
A wondrous sense of connection was instantly established.
Jiang Che felt as if he had instantly gained a cold, simple extension to his consciousness.
The spotted snake, originally full of vigilance and hostility, suddenly relaxed.
It raised its head, slowly slithered over, and affectionately rubbed its cold body against Jiang Che's fingers.

The spotted snake immediately and obediently curled into a coil.
'Straighten.'
The snake's body slowly straightened out.
'Go to the doorway, do a loop, and come back.'
The spotted snake executed the command without hesitation, slithering to the doorway to turn in a circle before returning to Jiang Che's feet.
'It really is obedient.' Jiang Che nodded.
But when Jiang Che tried to make it do more complex things—like fetching a specific object or performing more delicate actions—
its response was much slower.
