The wealth-guarding ghost, in its steward-type role, is naturally most suited to serve as the deputy. It can help Yu Liang to alleviate the pressure of managing a ship, enabling him to sit back and benefit from its aid, and better display the Writer's unique character traits.
As for the Devouring Snake Dragon…
Currently, it too is affected by the sea pressure, hence it can only maintain a slender body of about ten meters. Any longer and it would be subjected to the immense pressure of the sea's expanse, risking losing consciousness and sinking.
Even so, possessing the ability to float and maximized all-resistances, it still is the perfect candidate for ship-to-ship combat, easily capable of destroying the living power of other vessels, or even directly puncturing through mid- and small-sized ships, causing them to take on water and sink.
From this aspect, its ability in ship combat is even more exaggerated than that of a T1 body cultivator like Li Chaoniang.
