"Her destiny has reversed; her future transformed dramatically."
Compared to Qin Keqing and Lin Daiyu, Jia Yingchun's personal combat stats were slightly weaker.
At first glance, her abilities seemed underwhelming.
But when Lucian saw the attributes of her bloodline, he couldn't help but be shocked.
She cannot use offensive abilities!
This meant Jia Yingchun couldn't attack enemies and would have to rely on her bare fists—a completely impractical idea.
But the second attribute of her bloodline changed everything.
While alive, every resident in the domain gains +2 to their skill levels.
The higher their skill level, the more terrifying this buff became!
Lucian swallowed hard.
"This is a walking buff machine!"
Although Jia Yingchun couldn't fight, her presence alone made her an invaluable asset. Her Buff capabilities could elevate an entire domain's power.
From a strategic perspective, her value might even surpass Qin Keqing and Lin Daiyu!
In The Dream of the Red Chamber, Jia Yingchun was a tragic figure.
Born to a concubine, her status in the Jia family was low. Even servants dared to steal her belongings.
Over time, she became timid and resigned to her fate, enduring the suffering silently.
Her father eventually married her off to the despicable Sun Shaozu to clear his gambling debts. She endured unbearable torment and ultimately met a tragic end.
But here, fate had been rewritten.
Before her ill-fated marriage, as she wept alone in her room, she was summoned into the Endless Void by Lucian.
Freed from her original world and elevated as a Golden Legendary Hero, she stepped into a new life.
Still adjusting, Jia Yingchun felt as if she were in a dream.
When she opened her eyes, she saw Lucian standing before her, breathing in the wooden fragrance of the Red Pavilion.
"This isn't a dream..."
Lucian approached her with curiosity.
"Yingchun, would you like to go for a walk?"
Before he could say more, he noticed tears streaming down her face.
She was crying!
Lucian froze, confused.
Had he done something wrong?
"Yingchun..." Lin Daiyu, ever perceptive, quickly made a hand gesture toward Lucian.
Seeing this, Lucian understood. Without hesitation, he gently took Jia Yingchun's delicate hand and pulled her into an embrace.
"Young Master!"
Jia Yingchun burst into tears, clinging tightly to Lucian's clothes.
Her sobs carried a weight of pain accumulated over her years in the Jia family. She had been treated as less than a servant, enduring humiliation and hardship.
"Alright, alright. It's okay now," Lucian comforted her softly, patting her back.
For a long moment, Jia Yingchun cried her heart out, her tears soaking Lucian's chest.
When she finally calmed down, she looked up at him with tear-filled eyes. "I'm sorry, Young Master. Yingchun has been rude."
"It's fine. You're safe here," Lucian said with a gentle smile.
Jia Yingchun's delicate beauty, paired with her fragile demeanor, made her irresistible. Her presence awakened a deep protective instinct in him.
"Enjoying holding a beauty in your arms, Young Master?" Lin Daiyu teased with a sly smile.
Hearing this, Jia Yingchun quickly pulled away, her face turning bright red.
"So, how is Yingchun's strength?" Lin Daiyu asked, her tone serious.
Lucian explained Jia Yingchun's abilities.
When he finished, Lin Daiyu's eyes sparkled with understanding.
"This aligns perfectly with Yingchun's personality. She may not be suited for combat, but her support is invaluable."
"Exactly! And her extra Luck stat makes her our little lucky charm," Lucian added with a chuckle.
Yingchun's cheeks flushed again, but this time, a small smile appeared.
"Daiyu, why don't you take Yingchun on a tour of the domain?" Lucian suggested.
Lin Daiyu agreed enthusiastically, taking Yingchun's hand as they left.
Lucian, meanwhile, decided to find Qin Keqing.
He found her in the kitchen of the Yunying Lodge, staring intently at a table of spices.
Qin Keqing was not a professional cook.
She had no particular culinary expertise, but her desire to make delicious meals for everyone had motivated her to learn.
"Salt, vinegar, MSG..."
"Wait, MSG isn't good. Broth is better... but I'll need to stew it properly."
She muttered to herself, her elegant face filled with concentration.
Lucian's footsteps broke her focus.
"Young Master!" Qin Keqing quickly stood up and bowed.
"Keqing, what are you doing?" Lucian asked curiously.
"I'm... preparing dinner," she replied, her cheeks turning slightly red.
"It's not even close to dinnertime!" Lucian exclaimed, realization dawning on him.
Seeing her embarrassment, he sighed. "There's no need for you to do this. We can hire a chef."
"Yes, Young Master..." Qin Keqing's face reddened further, and she wished she could find a hole to hide in.
