Chapter 2835: Chapter 2830: Selecting Talents_1
He originally wanted to return to his former residence, but what he saw was a place where everything changed and the people were no longer the same. Anyone would feel disheartened in this situation.
As irritation grew in Yang Chen’s heart, he didn’t care about etiquette or whose current residence it was. He went in without hesitation.
Upon entering, an melodious and pleasant voice rang out immediately.
"Eh? Who are you? How did you barge in here?"
Yang Chen turned his head and saw a delicate and pretty girl with a charming appearance.
The girl wore a skirt and looked adorable and attractive.
She stared at Yang Chen with an astonished face, clearly puzzled about why he was here.
Her red lips parted as she gently asked, "Senior Brother, are you here to see my young lady?"
"Your young lady?" Yang Chen looked puzzled, not knowing who her young lady was.
But it wasn’t difficult to guess that it was her young lady who had taken over his previous mansion.
"You don’t know my young lady? And yet you dare break in here?"
The delicate young girl kindly said, "Senior Brother, I advise you to leave quickly. If my young lady learns that someone has broken into our mansion, she’ll definitely give you a severe punishment."
Yang Chen couldn’t help but laugh. He didn’t care about these punishments. Instead, he wanted to see who this so-called young lady was.
And then he would ask her about his previous servants and where they had gone.
"Who is your young lady?" Yang Chen asked.
"You don’t even know my young lady?"
The delicate girl murmured, thinking Yang Chen was a strange person, but she didn’t hide anything and honestly said, "My young lady’s name is Liu Feiying, who is an extraordinary contender among the core disciples. Although my young lady has a bad temper, anyone who annoys her doesn’t end well. I advise you to leave early. If my young lady comes back later, you’ll be in real trouble."
Yang Chen noticed that Liu Feiying must be a very ruthless character, otherwise, the girl wouldn’t be so frightened.
He also realized that as Liu Feiying’s maid, the delicate girl had a kind heart and was still concerned about him, a complete stranger. She probably had no ill intentions.
This made him take a closer look at her. As he opened his Lingxi Divine Pupil, Yang Chen was slightly surprised.
"What’s your name?" Yang Chen asked.
"My name is Wan Yueqin." The delicate girl provided a straightforward answer, blinking her big eyes, and thought Yang Chen was very strange.
"Do you know that you have a Tai Chong Spirit Body, and your talent is extraordinary, unmatched..." Yang Chen stood with his hands behind his back as he spoke.
"How do you know about my talent?" Wan Yueqin seemed quite familiar with her own talent and, startled, wondered how Yang Chen had seen through her.
Yang Chen shook his head, "You don’t need to bother about how I know. Your talent is indeed top-notch. I don’t know who this Liu Feiying, your young lady, is, but if you were to receive proper cultivation within the Xuandao Sect, your achievements and status would probably not be any worse than your young lady’s."
Tai Chong Spirit Body was a rare type of spirit body.
As one of the spirit bodies with the fastest cultivation speed, it was worth little on its own.
However, this girl’s other talents were still top-notch, which made her a valuable prospect.
With such talent, Yang Chen would choose her, even if she was only at the Earth Martial Realm now, and send her to the Southern Realm.
He valued talents, not people!
Yang Chen wouldn’t waste a quota on someone, like an Enlightenment Stage or even Nirvana Stage cultivator, whose achievements wouldn’t change significantly by going to the Southern Realm.
Upon hearing Yang Chen’s words, Wan Yueqin’s face showed bitterness, as if her deepest sorrow had been touched. She momentarily forgot to advise Yang Chen to leave: "I was sold to serve my young lady since childhood. When she was selected as a core disciple of the Xuandao Sect, I came here as her servant. How could I leave her side?."
"Does your young lady know about your talent?" Yang Chen asked.
"Of course, she does." Wan Yueqin’s expression turned gloomy as she mentioned this.
"Don’t you ever think about leaving?" Yang Chen couldn’t help but say, "Staying here, you’ll always be a little maid. It’s a pity for your natural talent."
For some reason, she would have been more wary towards others, but this man gave her a warm and comforting feeling. Subconsciously, she trusted him and believed he wasn’t a bad person.
That’s why Wan Yueqin honestly said, "Even if I wanted to leave, what can I do? My young lady said that I was sold to her, and as long as I am a servant under her command, I will always be one. There’s no escaping my fate. Perhaps it’s destiny that I have to serve her in this life. It’s hard to resist fate."
Yang Chen sneered, "The shackles of fate are illusory. If you want to resist, it’s never too late."
"How... How can I resist?" Wan Yueqin bit her lip. "My destiny is to follow such a master. Who can help me? If I were luckier, I might have followed a good master like Senior Sister Gu Liushui and perhaps had a better future."
"Gu Liushui?" Yang Chen’s expression became interesting.
Wan Yueqin could never have imagined in her wildest dreams that Gu Liushui’s master was right in front of her.
He was now quite puzzled about where Gu Liushui and his other servants had gone.
"You don’t even know Gu Liushui? Gu Liushui followed a good master in the Xuandao Sect before, named Yang Chen. It is said that the senior brother named Yang Chen has already gone to another realm, leaving many treasures and resources for his servants. They all have risen in status, greatly increased their cultivation, and became elites within the inner sect. They’re now the masters of many disciples."
Yang Chen rubbed his chin. When he left them, he indeed left resources for Gu Liushui and the others. Had they really achieved so much already?
That’s what he wanted to see.
After all, everybody knew that he had left for the Southern Realm. They couldn’t possibly expect his former residence to remain his forever.
Moreover, Gu Liushui and his servants had already made a name for themselves, so this place was naturally vacant.
"Senior Brother, today, I’m already very happy to talk to you about all this. However, please do not interfere with my affairs. My young lady’s family background is not something you can deal with. I know you mean well, but you should leave quickly."
