Free Web NovelChapter 114: Taking in a Servant
“Hmph, I do not care whose it is. In any case, hand it over, or do not blame me for showing no mercy.”
“Besides, go ask around. Who does not know the name of my Luantian Sect?”
“For this Holy Son to allow you to become my women is already an immense blessing for you.”
The red-robed man leading them snorted coldly, his tone filled with pride.
The Luantian Sect was one of the extremely few powerful forces on the entire Tiansheng Continent that possessed a Saint Emperor.
In addition, some time ago, the Luantian Sect’s Mid Saint Emperor Realm patriarch had not participated in the affairs of the Southern Wastes because he was attempting to break through to the late stage.
Therefore, in the current Tiansheng Continent, the Luantian Sect could be considered one of the strongest forces aside from the Five Great Sacred Lands.
And as Jiang Tiansheng, the Holy Son of the Luantian Sect, he naturally had the qualifications to act arrogantly and domineeringly.
When Zhao Xiaoyi and Xu Rou heard this, their expressions could not help but turn somewhat ugly. Just as Xu Rou was about to accept her fate and hand over the Heaven-Mending Fruit, Lu Xunxian’s somewhat helpless voice came from the side.
“I say, can you stop disturbing my rest? It is time for me to sleep.”
The secret realm had the alternation of day and night, and by now, the sky had already darkened.
Although Lu Xunxian had long since stopped needing rest, if he did not rest at all, how would he still be any different from a human?
When Lu Xunxian spoke, Zhao Xiaoyi finally realized that he was still there, and she immediately became anxious.
“Why have you not left yet? It is very dangerous here.”
But before Lu Xunxian could say anything, Jiang Tiansheng sneered.
“Interesting. After seeing this Holy Son, you did not flee, yet you still dare to speak?”
“You three, go cripple him for me.” fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com
The Luantian Sect had a full twenty slots. Aside from Jiang Tiansheng and ten core disciples, the remaining nine were all disciples whose cultivation had been raised to the Saint King Realm by the Sect Master of the Luantian Sect using great means. They were specifically here to protect Jiang Tiansheng’s safety.
Following Jiang Tiansheng’s order, the disciples who received the command charged toward Lu Xunxian.
At this moment, Lu Xunxian’s cultivation was completely clear for all to see: Peak Saint King Realm.
Jiang Tiansheng thought that since he had even sent out three disciples, they should be able to easily take Lu Xunxian down.
However, he had not expected that with a single thought from Lu Xunxian, a Ninth-Grade Spirit Sword would fly out from the Storage Ring and deal with those three disciples in an instant.
The turn of events came so quickly that no one reacted.
By the time they came back to their senses, Jiang Tiansheng’s face had already turned pale, and his heart trembled in shock.
“Who exactly are you? Logically speaking, there should be no one like you on the Tiansheng Continent!”
“Who I am is not important. Since you attacked me, then you can die.”
“Wait, I am a disciple of the Luantian Sect. You cannot…”
Seeing this, Jiang Tiansheng planned to first show weakness and submit, then have the sect elders deal with Lu Xunxian after he left.
But he had not expected that Lu Xunxian would not fear him in the slightest. The instant Lu Xunxian’s thought fell, that Spirit Sword flew toward the disciples of the Luantian Sect.
The expressions of the Luantian Sect disciples changed drastically. They all used every method they had to block the Spirit Sword, but the Flying Sword moved as though it had entered an uninhabited land. Every time it passed a disciple, it slew them.
Very soon, including Jiang Tiansheng, all the disciples of the Luantian Sect perished here.
Without exception, all the surrounding cultivators looked over in shock.
Clearly, they had all recognized Jiang Tiansheng’s identity. Naturally, they were incomparably shocked as well. Someone actually dared to kill Jiang Tiansheng. Could he be someone from the Five Great Sacred Lands?
Otherwise, how could he possibly not fear the Luantian Sect’s retaliation?
Zhao Xiaoyi and Xu Rou were both stunned. Neither of them had expected Lu Xunxian to be so powerful.
After coming back to her senses, Zhao Xiaoyi’s expression changed drastically. She looked at Lu Xunxian and hurriedly said, “Leave quickly. I will take responsibility for this matter. If the Luantian Sect finds out, you will not escape death.”
“Oh? Then what about you?”
Lu Xunxian looked at Zhao Xiaoyi with a playful expression and asked.
With his current strength, he could naturally tell that the force behind Zhao Xiaoyi was not simple either. Although it could not reach the level of the Luantian Sect, it could at least make the Luantian Sect somewhat wary.
“I… I am from the Eastern Region Zhao Family. The Luantian Sect will not kill me.”
Zhao Xiaoyi gritted her teeth and ultimately could not help but reveal her identity.
But Lu Xunxian shook his head.
“I, Lu Xunxian, take responsibility for what I do. Since I was the one who killed them, I naturally will not deny it.”
“As for Xu Rou, she deliberately lured them to my side. Since that is the case, she can become my servant for ten thousand years.”
After Lu Xunxian finished speaking, he looked toward Xu Rou at the side. With a flick of his finger, he left an imprint in Xu Rou’s Divine Soul.
What a joke. She had used him and still thought she could pay no price at all. How could that be possible?
Lu Xunxian moved so quickly that the two women did not react at all.
After coming back to her senses, Xu Rou immediately became anxious. Subconsciously, she prepared to erase the imprint inside her Divine Soul.
But the instant that thought fell, a powerful agony like her body was being torn apart spread through her entire body, causing Xu Rou to cry out despite herself.
As her close friend, Zhao Xiaoyi could not bear to see this. Suppressing the fear of Lu Xunxian in her heart, she stepped forward and pleaded, “Senior, please, can you spare Xu Rou? She did not do it on purpose either.”
“Hmph. Did not do it on purpose? She should have been able to see that Jiang Tiansheng was extraordinary.”
“Since that was the case, yet she still lured him to my side, she was likely trying to divert disaster onto me.”
“If I had only been an ordinary Peak Saint King, then even if Jiang Tiansheng crippled me, no one would have said anything on my behalf.”
“I have already shown great mercy. Otherwise, I would not have made her a servant for ten thousand years, but killed her directly instead.”
Lu Xunxian sneered. This did indeed count as him showing great mercy.
Seeing this, Zhao Xiaoyi sighed helplessly and looked at Xu Rou with an expression full of pity.
She had already done her best. If anyone was to blame, it could only be Xu Rou’s poor fate.
However, Zhao Xiaoyi did not know that becoming Lu Xunxian’s servant was absolutely fortune Xu Rou had cultivated over a hundred lifetimes.
After thinking of something, Zhao Xiaoyi gritted her teeth and looked at Lu Xunxian as she requested, “Senior, this junior has nowhere to go right now. May I follow by Senior’s side?”
Originally, she had run away from home together with Xu Rou. Now that Xu Rou had become Lu Xunxian’s servant, she could not think of any good place to go, so she could only shamelessly stay by Lu Xunxian’s side.
Of course, she also had her own considerations.
If she was followed by Lu Xunxian’s side, then if the Luantian Sect came seeking revenge, she could still use the Zhao Family’s name to block them. At the very least, she could not let Lu Xunxian suffer an undeserved disaster because of them.
Lu Xunxian looked at Zhao Xiaoyi and did not refuse. He nodded and agreed.
If someone followed his side and handled matters for him, that would naturally be quite good.
