"A cushy job?"
Servant Xiao Yun frowned and asked, "Do all of you know something? Or perhaps … Have you heard of that young Elder Duan? "
"It can't be … Sister Xiao Yun, you haven't heard of Elder Duan?"
The six servants looked at Xiao Yun as though they were looking at a monster.
"Is that strange?"
Seeing their reactions, Xiao Yun couldn't help but be stunned.
"Sister Xiao Yun, I'm afraid the entire Lu Clan has already spread the news about Elder Duan … As the first person to serve Elder Duan, how could you not know about it?"
The six servants shook their heads and sighed. They thought Xiao Yun's news was outdated.
"Stop keeping me in suspense, you six."
Xiao Yun smiled wryly.
Following that, the six maids no longer wasted any time and began to tell her everything they knew about Elder Duan who had become an elder of the Lu Clan as soon as he arrived at the Lu Clan.
"Elder Duan killed Elder Lu Zhao as soon as he arrived at the Lu Clan?"
"He even killed the Third Young Master?"
When Xiao Yun heard about what the young Elder Duan had done and how the two Guardian Elders of the Lu Clan had shown up to kill him, she could not help but break out in cold sweat for him.
However, she knew Elder Duan would be fine in the end.
Otherwise, she would not have the chance to serve Elder Duan.
"Grade one alchemist?"
Xiao Yun's eyes narrowed when she heard the young Elder Duan had revealed his grade one Pill Fire and his identity as a grade one alchemist.
"An alchemist, a grade one alchemist … Does this mean Elder Duan is not a demon?
However, he's just a human. Apart from having the ability to kill Elder Lu Zhao who was at the Eighth Level Void Transformation Stage, he's also a noble grade one alchemist … How's this possible?! "
Xiao Yun muttered to herself. Although her voice was not loud, it still entered the ears of the other six servants.
"Sister Xiao Yun, we wouldn't believe such a human exists if it was in the past … However, the truth is right before our eyes. We have no choice but to believe it."
"That's right, Sister Xiao Yun. Right now, the entire Lu Clan is talking about Elder Duan. They're saying Elder Duan is a rare monster on Cloud Continent! "
"Some people even say Elder Duan is a gift from God to the Lu Clan."
"After almost 1,000 years, a grade one alchemist has appeared in the Lu Clan again … If this news spreads, the entire Northern Mountain Land and half of the Southern Outer Land will be shocked!"
…
The six maids spoke one after another. Their tone was mixed with a bit of excitement.
Although they were only servants, they were still considered half of the Lu Clan, half of the Lu Clan.
"I can't believe Elder Duan … Duan …"
Recalling the purple-clothed young man who didn't put on any airs and how casual she was in front of him, the maidservant Xiao Yun felt a chill down her spine.
It turned out that the purple-clothed youth was actually such an extraordinary existence!
Not only was he, but he was also a grade one alchemist as.
"Sister Xiao Yun, how is that Elder Duan? Is he easy to get along? "
Very soon, the six new maidservants asked Xiao Yun all at once.
"Elder Duan is very nice and easy-going."
".".
Duan Lingtian gradually woke up after sleeping for an unknown amount of time. He got out of bed after glancing at the ice coffin on the table nearby.
After washing up and changing into a clean set of clothes, he walked out of his room.
"Elder Duan!"
"Elder Duan!"
As soon as Duan Lingtian opened the door and walked out, two voices that sounded like orioles resonated in his ears. Only then did he realize there were two servants standing on both sides of his door.
"Morning."
Duan Lingtian nodded in response. However, he could not help but smile wryly in his heart. 'That fellow, Lu Bai, actually found a few more servants …'
At the same time, Duan Lingtian noticed there were a few servants busy in the mansion he was staying in.
"Elder Duan, I'll get someone to clean up your room for you."
Soon after, Duan Ling Tian saw servant Xiao Yun walking towards him. After she greeted him, she brought the two servant girls with her and entered his room to clean up.
Naturally, it was mainly to clean up the dust.
After a while, the entire room was spotless when the three servants came out.
"Elder Duan, do you have any other orders?"
Servant Xiao Yun looked at Duan Lingtian respectfully after bringing the servants out. She waited for further instructions from Duan Lingtian.
At this moment, Duan Lingtian also noticed.
Servant Xiao Yun's attitude towards him had undergone a drastic change compared to when he first arrived. She was no longer as casual as before. Instead, her every movement was reserved.
"Xiao Yun, you don't have to be so reserved in front of me.
Just be as casual as you want, "Duan Lingtian said.
"I dare not."
Servant Xiao Yun lowered her head as she replied.
What a joke!
Previously, she did not know about Elder Duan's background. However, now that she knew, she would not dare to be as casual as before even if she was given a hundred guts.
Upon seeing this, Duan Lingtian felt helpless. However, he did not insist. Instead, he said calmly, "Bring Second Young Master here."
"Yes."
Servant Xiao Yun responded and left. As for the other two servants, they returned to Duan Lingtian's room and stood there like statues.
Duan Lingtian shook his head and walked out to look for Xiong Quan.
As for the ice coffin in the room, he did not bring it out.
In his opinion, this was the Northern Mountain's Lu Family, one of the two most powerful forces in the Northern Mountain. Nobody would come here to look for trouble.
Therefore, it was safe to leave it in the room temporarily.
Moreover, he would not leave the Lu Family anytime soon.
Under the guidance of the servants, Duan Lingtian soon saw Xiong Quan in the backyard of the mansion. When he saw Xiong Quan, he was practicing his swordsmanship with all his might. He was sweating profusely.
"Xiong Quan."
Duan Lingtian sighed in his heart when he saw how hardworking Xiong Quan was.
Naturally, he knew why Xiong Quan was so hardworking. He wanted to become stronger so that he could stay by his side to help him and not be a burden.
"Young Master."
Soon after, Xiong Quan stopped practicing and stood up. He noticed Duan Lingtian.
"Xiong Quan, how much of the information contained in the word 'Sword' have you comprehended?"
Duan Lingtian asked with a smile.
The word 'Sword' that Duan Lingtian mentioned was, naturally, a carving left behind by a guy who called himself the Sword Saint in the depths of the mountain where Xiong Quan's hometown was located in the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom.
The word 'Sword' contained a shocking amount of Sword Dao comprehension.
According to Duan Lingtian's estimation.
Even if he only comprehended 1% of the Sword Dao comprehension contained in the word 'Sword', he would be able to do whatever he wanted on the Cloud Continent.
He had discovered this not too long ago.
Not too long ago, he had a further comprehension of the word 'Sword' stored in his mind and raised his Sword Concept to the Eighth Level Advance Sword Concept in one fell swoop!
Although he did not have any improvements in other aspects, he had an additional strength of 300 ancient horned dragons due to the elevation of his Sword Concept.
With the help of the Quasi Royal Grade Spirit Sword, he could wield the strength of 3,800 ancient horned dragons with his full strength!
This was under the condition that he did not rely on the Earth Energy with his Earth Concept.
It was precisely because of this that he was able to kill Lu Zhao, the Lu Clan's elder who was at the Eighth Level Void Transformation Stage. It was effortless from the beginning until the end.
"Young Master, I'm slow-witted. I haven't made any progress."
Xiong Quan shrugged and smiled wryly.
"Don't worry … A lot of things still depend on luck. Who knows, maybe you'll have a flash of inspiration in your mind, and you'll be able to comprehend them naturally. "
Duan Lingtian comforted him.
However, looking at Xiong Quan's dejected expression, it was obvious his consolation was useless.
"Duan Lingtian!"
Right at this moment, a loud and familiar voice sounded, breaking the slightly silent atmosphere.
"Lu Bai!"
The person who came was the Lu Clan's Second Young Master, Lu Bai. Duan Lingtian did not beat around the bush and went straight to the point, "Lu Bai, I want to see the Clan Leader."
"I've already told the Patriarch about the Soul Fixing Root and the Soul Stabilizing Grass that you told me a few days ago … You should be able to know the result when you meet the Patriarch with me this time."
Lu Bai knew the reason why Duan Lingtian wanted to see the Clan Leader of Lu Clan so he said bluntly, "The two treasures you mentioned sound like medicinal herbs … Our Lu Clan has countless rare medicinal herbs. Who knows, we might have what you're looking for."
"I hope so."
Duan Lingtian nodded and then looked at Xiong Quan. "Xiong Quan, do you want to come with me?"
"Young Master, I'll pass. I want to cultivate for a while more … Besides, I can help take care of Miss Tian Wu if I stay."
Xiong Quan said.
"Alright."
Duan Lingtian nodded and followed Lu Bai to see Lu Rui, the Clan Leader of Lu Clan, on his own.
The mansion where Lu Rui lived was not far away from Duan Lingtian's mansion. Even Lu Bai's mansion was not far away.
"The area to the east of our Lu Clan's mansion is where the clan's high-ranking officials and direct descendants live … The most magnificent mansion in front is where the Clan Leader lives."
Lu Bai explained as he pointed to the front.
Upon hearing this, Duan Lingtian looked over.
In the distance, an estate stood there. It was grand and tall, and it stood out amongst the surrounding estates, causing it to be especially conspicuous.
"Hmm?"
After walking for a while, Duan Lingtian raised an eyebrow. He could clearly feel a gaze locked on him from afar.
When he looked over, he saw a middle-aged young man walking toward him and Lu Bai. There was an old man following behind the young man.
"Hurmph!"
At this moment, Duan Lingtian heard Lu Bai snort. It was obvious he was targeting the newcomer.
"Lu Bai, aren't you going to greet your big brother when you see him?"
At this moment, the grey-clad young man arrived in front of Duan Lingtian and Lu Bai. His gaze had already shifted from Duan Lingtian to Lu Bai.
"Do I know you that well?"
Lu Bai glanced at the grey-clad young man coldly and said disdainfully.
"Lu Bai, is there a misunderstanding between us?"
The grey-clad young man still had a smile on his face even though Lu Bai did not treat him nicely.
