A few days passed.
Li Xinrou was originally left by Zhao Dong at the spiritual pool, the spirituality all devoured.
After three days, she arrived at the Zhao family residence.
Not being stinky, Zhao Dong let her inside.
However staying here wasn't free.
She need to do household works, and help others.
She wasn't even concubine.
She was titled servant.
But she didn't bothered much.
There wasn't much work.
She would sometime bring water to wash Zhao Dong's body or only feet.
During this time, Zhao Dong had also sent a letter, to Holy Land of heavenly dragons saying he wants to join their sect.
The letter was full of arrogance.
It was frist time in entire history, someone actually wrote a letter saying, it's an honor of sect, to have a disciple like him.
The reason he wants to join the sect is to learn some spiritual arts.
His family doesn't have any good spiritual arts, and practicing the family spiritual martial arts causes the cultivation talent to fall.
In short, his family's spiritual art techniques sucks so, he wants to join a sect and learn some.
The system doesn't have any shop or lottery.
And it only grants quest when meeting Protagonist.
So, if he wanna make progress, he needs to join a sect.
And today, the reply came from the sect.
...
Hoho Brat, you have some courage to send such outrageous letter, but, this honoured one always welcomes the talent.
...
The reply was short but the elder who sent the letter, seems like a good human being.
Good thing, he can occasionally return back to house, and the holy land of hidden dragon, was just two mountain region away.
Which is 8 to 9 hour journey.
But elder wasn't worthy in his eyes.
Once he learns some powerful technique, the sect won't have much use to him.
..
At the moment,
Zhao Dong has gathered all of his servants into the courtyard.
They stood there nervously waiting for him to speak.
"You all know why I've gathered you here today,"
Zhao Dong said, his voice cold and menacing.
"I've been giving you foundation building pills, and now I want to know what progress have you all made,"
The servants gulped nervously.
They knew that Zhao Dong was not known for his kindness especially these days, and they were apprehensive of what he was going to do.
"I want each of you to cultivate the foundation building pills that I've given you, and show me your progress,"
Zhao Dong continued.
"And let me tell you now, those who disappoint me will be punished severely,"
Clap!
He clapped his fist.
Instantly two tall stones appeared.
A spiritual stone and strength measuring stone.
The spiritual stone that is summoned, is used to measure the talent ( spiritual root ) of someone.
"Now, all of you... Place your hands on the spiritual stone,"
His cold voice echoed.
The servants were all extremely nervous and intimidated by Zhao Dong's cold voice.
They nervously approached the spiritual stone and one by one, placed their hands on it.
Some of them were shaking with fear, while others clenched their fists in determination, hoping to impress Zhao Dong.
As soon as one servant placed their hands on the spiritual stone, spiritual power was channeled into it, causing the spiritual stone to glow and emit a soft light.
Zhao Dong watched intently as the stone illuminated, his face expressionless.
He waited for a few moments before speaking again.
"Low gradge- wood spiritual root, TRASH"
Disdain was completely visible in his eyes.
Low gradge spirit root of wood?
That's; Yrash among trash.
Seeing this servant's face was plae.
"From now on, you will continue to work on spirit mine," Zhao Dong said, didn't even let him check his strength on strength measuring stones.
There was no point.
This servant is no protagonist, he simply has no great future in cultivation.
..
After that, one by one, every servant checked their spirit root, and someone who had good spirit root, were allowed to check their strength.
Their punch was heavy with strength of 300 Jim upto 500 Jin.
Terrifying.
Just started cultivating and such strength.
Zhao Dong was impressed.
Good quality pawn, a potential Queen candidate.
Zhao Dong gave each and everyone one of them a drink, a elixer, body cleansing, bone marrow cleansing and body strengthinig mix pack.
However there was another thing in that bottle of drink.
Heart controlling Gu.
Servants not knowing anything hurriedly gulped it down.
Soon their started to feel their body getting hot.
It was internal strength.
All of them cupped their hands,
"Thank you, Young Master Zhao," they said together.
"Tui, Nii, Su... Aside from you, others, Dismiss,"
Zhao Dong said.
Unlike other low gradge or mid grade.
These people have awaken high grade spirit root.
This bitch name Su has even wakened a supreme grade spirit root.
The foundation building pill given by Zhao Dong wasn't bad, however to think, she would manage to awaken a supreme grade spirit root, even higher than high grade.
Zhao Dong was impressed.
She can be promoted to his plaything or at best, a concubine.
Tui, was male, he had awakened a High-grade shadow spirit root named split shadow.
He can be trained to be a assassin.
Nii, a female, petite and beautiful body, donned in little shabby, dirty clothes, good body shape with nice curve, big chest, big hip, long legs, had awakened a High-grade gold- light spirit root named heavenly halo.
As for Su, a good quality milf, big chest, big hip, a mature and sexy charm donned in servant clothes yet dirtless, wide hip and large chest, with slutty face, long legs.
She had awakened ice spirit root, supreme flower fairy.
And according to system this spirit root can be further evolved into saint grade spirit root or even emperor grade.
Su, was mature woman, who has been working on Zhao house for long time.
She is unmarried and untouched.
She is already 34, and since she was previously a mortal, she aged naturally.
She posses a good breeding body, and her body is well developed for multiple child bearing.
There were many ways to utilize the servants.
Zhao Dong suddenly turned toward Li Xinrou and spoke.
"Xinrou. Come here,"
Je motioned for Li Xinrou to approach him.
He knew that she was watching from the side, and had been observing the entire scene.
Li Xinrou felt a shiver run down her spine as she heard Zhao Dong's cold voice calling her name.
She quietly approached him, her head bowed slightly in submission..
Zhao Dong gestured for her to sit down on his lap.
She took a seat silently, her expression unchanging.
He looked at her, his eyes piercing through her.
"You have been watching from the side, didn't you?"
Li Xinrou felt a pang of fear as Zhao Dong addressed her.
She couldn't bring herself to look him in the eye, and her heart was pounding in her chest.
She nodded silently in response to his question, confirming that she had indeed been watching from the side.
Zhao Dong chuckled softly, amused by her nervousness.
"Don't act so scared. I'm not going to hurt you....yet,"
He then leaned closer to her and spoke in a low tone.
"You saw which servants awakened high grade spirit roots, right?"
He asked.
Li Xinrou, as a heroine, has awakened the Saint grade spirit root of gold, light, and lightning, called the Heavenly Marshall.
And it also has potential to evolve into Emperor grade.
..
Li Xinrou nodded, this time too, saying she knew the spirit root they awakened.
Zhao Dong then pointed his hands towards them.
A magical box appeared before them.
It was a small box, containing a pill that was glowing.
It was the bleed essence pill.
Not blood recovery.
It's the pill from tailed fox.
It can strengthen the body, recover the Qi, makes muscles and bones stronger, and enhance beauty.
However compared to Tui and Nii, Su's box was bigger.
And it was up-opened.
Zhao Dong, looked at Su and threw another jade token towards her.
"From now on, you are my concubine..." saying that he got up.
However, Su, just looked at jade token, unable to accept it.
She immideatly got on her knees, head touching the ground.
"Forgive me, Young Master, but, I like Gatekeeper Huan, this one isn't suitable to be your concubine,"
She pleaded.
Oh!?
She likes gatekeeper Huan, the same guy who awakened a low grade spirit root of wood nature.
Tsk! Tsk!
Have eyes but failed to see MT. Tai.
"I See, tonight you and Huan, come to meet me... I will get you married soon,"
Saying that, Zhao Dong left.
As a villain, he isn't such gracious.
He plans to fuck the shit out Su, Infront of Huan.
