Xiao Clan, Xiao Chen's independent courtyard:
In the Xiao Residence, not everyone had the qualifications to have an independent courtyard. Aside from the clan elders and guests, only the direct descendants like Xiao Chen could have one.
Xiao Chen carefully held the Inferior Grade Yellow Ranked Spirit Weapon in his hand — Lunar Shadow Saber. The saber was 1.2 meters long and two fingers wide. The streamlined blade was similar to the final form of the Grim Reaper's Crescent Moon, but it was not as long.
Closing his eyes and focusing his mind, Xiao Chen carefully felt the energy contained in the saber. A faint energy came from the saber and flowed into Xiao Chen's body, slowly heading towards his Dantian.
Slowly, this strand of energy flowed into the Blue Dragon Martial Spirit under his Dantian. Strands of Essence followed this strand of strange energy and returned to the saber.
Xiao Chen was pleasantly surprised. This strand of Essence was clearer, purer, and more tyrannical than the one that flowed from the Blue Dragon. Perhaps it was because the grade of the Spirit Weapon was too low, this pure Essence could only flow back to the saber through that thin strand. Xiao Chen could clearly feel that only a tenth of the energy contained in the Martial Spirit was transmitted back to the saber.
If the grade of the Spirit Weapon was higher, this strand of energy would definitely be thicker. At that time, the amount of Essence that was transmitted back would definitely be more than a tenth.
Opening his eyes, he carefully felt this strange state. Xiao Chen held the Lunar Shadow Saber and waved it in the air a few times. Strands of electricity surrounded the saber and the image of the Azure Dragon occasionally flickered on the saber.
"Kill!"
Xiao Chen shouted and leaped up ferociously. The Lunar Shadow Saber, which was infused with electricity and the dragon image, hacked down three times in the air. Something strange happened. Just as Xiao Chen was exhausted, the Martial Spirit in his body suddenly sent out a surge of energy. The dragon image on the saber suddenly sent out a surge of energy, pulling the slowly descending Xiao Chen upwards.
Following this surge of energy, Xiao Chen made a strange turn in the air. His body actually rose up again. The energy from the Blue Dragon Martial Spirit in his body continued to surge endlessly!
"Chi! Chi! Chi!
Xiao Chen sent out another three ferocious saber strikes. Electricity flickered, and a dragon roared. Thunder seemed to roar in the white clouds a kilometer above him. When it resonated with him, it sounded like a tiger roaring and a dragon roaring.
After three slashes, Xiao Chen's body rose again. At this time, he was already more than 30 meters above the ground. This was the first time that Xiao Chen had been so high in the air. He could not help but feel nervous and fearful.
However, the exploration of the unknown occupied Xiao Chen's mind. For some reason, a kind of heroic spirit rose up in his heart, as if he was looking down on the world. Just how high can I, Xiao Chen, fly!?
Hua! Hua! Hua!
After another three slashes, Xiao Chen's body rose another five meters. Half of the Xiao Residence appeared before Xiao Chen's eyes. Fortunately, Xiao Chen's courtyard was rather remote. Otherwise, at this height, he would have been discovered long ago.
This cycle continued for another two times. Xiao Chen's body was now seventy to eighty meters above the ground. He had exhausted most of his Essence. Xiao Chen did not dare to be careless. If he exhausted all his Essence, even if he did not die from the fall, he would be severely injured.
After making up his mind, he sheathed his saber and descended like a meteor. A formless Blue Dragon wrapped around Xiao Chen. It created a shockwave in the air and smashed into the ground violently.
The wind howled in his ears. Xiao Chen shouted loudly. Using the momentum of his descent, he sent out a saber strike at lightning speed. Using the boundless momentum, this saber strike had the force of a thousand kilograms. It was majestic, like ten thousand horses galloping, unstoppable!
Bang!
The ground shattered with a loud bang. A huge pit appeared in the courtyard. Countless broken rocks shot out from the ground, filling the sky. When the wind blew, the broken rocks immediately turned into dust. In an instant, the entire courtyard was filled with dust and smoke.
Xiao Chen's four limbs were spread out as he laid on the ground. He panted heavily. His current mood was indescribable. Originally, he only wanted to use the Spirit Weapon to test the power of the Blue Dragon Martial Spirit.
He did not expect that after accidentally stumbling around, he would actually comprehend a powerful Martial Technique. This Martial Technique was at least a High Grade Profound Ranked Martial Technique. Furthermore, it was created by Xiao Chen himself. It was unique in the Tianwu Continent. How could he not be excited?
He had to think of a name. Let's call it Meteor Burst. It would smash into the ground like a meteor and explode with the power of a meteorite.
Meteor Burst, Meteor Burst, he repeated it in his heart. The more Xiao Chen repeated it, the more satisfied he felt.
But was this Meteor Burst truly unique in this world? In reality, it was not. The Blue Dragon Martial Spirit was mysterious and unfathomable. It had existed for thousands of years.
Dragons could be big or small. They could hide or rise. When they were big, they could swallow clouds and spit out mist. When they were small, they could hide. When they rose, they could soar into the nine heavens. When they were hidden, they could hide within the waves.
Soaring into the sky, rising from the ground. This was extremely normal for the Blue Dragon Martial Spirit. The various mystical abilities and Martial Techniques of the Blue Dragon Martial Spirit were not passed down in the Xiao Clan due to mysterious reasons. The Meteor Burst that Xiao Chen used just now was a martial technique exclusive to the Blue Dragon Martial Spirit. The Divine Dragon Descending Chop was a martial technique exclusive to the Blue Dragon Martial Spirit.
Martial techniques exclusive to the Holy Beast Martial Spirit were well preserved in other clans with Holy Beast bloodlines. These people did not need to fumble around randomly like Xiao Chen. When they reached a certain realm, they could easily obtain it from the clan's library. Compared to Xiao Chen, they were much more fortunate.
After resting on the ground for a while, Xiao Chen slowly recovered some strength. His complexion was already somewhat pale. This attack had exhausted too much Essence. After struggling to stand up, Xiao Chen casually tidied up his clothes and stared at the gates of the courtyard.
He could sense someone's footsteps approaching slowly. However, this person's Essence was very weak. It did not seem like a Martial Dao expert. After understanding it, Xiao Chen put it down.
"Hey, this … what's going on here …"
After a while, a maidservant appeared in Xiao Chen's vision. The maidservant looked at the dusty courtyard and the potholes on the ground. She exclaimed softly.
Looking at the maidservant in front of him, Xiao Chen frowned slightly, "What is your name? Who sent you here?"
The maidservant looked at the dusty Xiao Chen. Xiao Chen looked like a clay figurine. She found it funny and said softly, "Replying to Second Young Master, this servant is called Bao`er. The First Elder sent me to deliver this book to you."
Xiao Chen walked over and received the book. It was the introductory Alchemy Compendium that the First Elder said he would give him. His expression warmed up and he smiled, "Thank you."
After thanking the maidservant, Xiao Chen turned around and headed for the bedroom. He wanted to take a set of clothes and take a bath. The dust on his body made him feel uncomfortable. However, the maidservant called Bao`er did not leave. She continued to follow him slowly.
Xiao Chen felt it was strange. He turned around and smiled, "Why aren't you leaving yet? Do you want to accompany this Young Master to bathe?"
Bao`er's face turned red. Her pretty face was covered in a red glow. She said softly, "The First Elder sent me here to serve Second Young Master. He said that if Second Young Master has any orders, I must do it. If Second Young Master wants Bao`er to bathe, Bao`er does not dare to disobey …"
Damn! I only said it casually and this girl really accompanied me to bathe …
Snobbish, snobbish, Xiao Chen could not remember a time when he had a maidservant to serve him. He did not expect that the moment he agreed to the First Elder's request, there would be a Spirit Weapon, an Alchemy Compendium, and everything else. Now, the First Elder even sent a maidservant to him. However, this kind of snobbish girl, this Young Master quite likes it. The more the better, hehe …
Unfortunately, this was not the time to enjoy it. If he fell into a land of gentleness, his cultivation on the path of martial arts might not be able to recover. The Tianwu Continent was filled with experts. Not to mention those far away, just the Zhang Clan's Zhang He alone was not someone he could deal with. How could he lust after this worldly beauty?
I can only put up with being a Mage for now. In the future, when I stand at the peak, the scenery I will be able to enjoy will definitely not be something this small Mohe City can compare to. How can I, Xiao Chen, just stay in Mohe City?
After thinking for a while, Xiao Chen scratched his head and said, "This … I was just saying it casually. Don't take it seriously. I will not ask you to accompany me to bathe."
Bao`er's face was already bright red. After saying those embarrassing words, her heart was thumping non-stop. She said in a soft voice, "Then, does Young Master have any other orders? Bao`er is now Young Master's personal maidservant. Aside from serving Young Master, there is nothing else for me to do."
Xiao Chen patted his head, not knowing what to do. This was truly a difficult problem. If she did not accompany him to bathe or sleep, what else could this maidservant do?
If Bao`er knew of Xiao Chen's current thoughts, she would definitely be angered to death. A maidservant was not there to serve her master while he slept. There were many things she had to do. Only a 21st century geek like Xiao Chen would have such evil thoughts.
"That's right, help me go to the city and buy some herbs." Xiao Chen thought of something and said joyfully. Too many things had happened during the day. He was too lazy to make another trip. Having a ready-made maidservant would be able to help him out.
After the battle with Zhang He and the Meteor Burst that he just comprehended, Xiao Chen could clearly feel that he had an excess of Essence, but his reserves were severely insufficient. Regardless of whether he executed a strong Martial Technique or burned the Purple Thunder True Fire at a high intensity, he could not maintain it for a long time.
This was a very serious problem. If he were to encounter a protracted battle, or if he were to refine a pill with a higher difficulty, the lack of Essence would become his fatal weakness. The only way to deal with this was to increase his cultivation and quickly cultivate the Purple Thunder Divine Incantation to the second layer. That way, he would be able to store more Essence in his body.
If he wanted to cultivate quickly, aside from being diligent, he definitely could not be lacking in Medicinal Pills.
Xiao Chen took out some paper and ink from the study and started to write. Although he was not good at writing with a brush, the owner of this body was a native of this world. Naturally, he would not be unfamiliar with writing with a brush.
After he finished writing, Xiao Chen gently blew on the ink on the paper. Looking at his own handwriting in satisfaction, Xiao Chen took out his personal seal and handed it to Bao`er. He smiled and said, "Just buy according to what is written on the paper. They are not very rare herbs. You should be able to buy them from the ordinary herb stores in Mohe City. Take my personal seal and go to the cashier to withdraw some money. If you have any leftover, use it to buy some makeup or cosmetics. Keep the change."
Bao`er received it in a daze. She said in disbelief, "Young Master, you are asking Bao`er to run errands?"
Normally, the work of a maidservant would be to serve tea, tidy up the house, help the master put on clothes and fold the blankets. If there were some special requests, they would need Nuanchuan to accompany them to bathe.
However, these errands were usually done by the male servants. Furthermore, Xiao Chen's reputation in the Xiao Clan was not very good. Bao`er did not expect that Xiao Chen would only ask her to run errands.
If you don't run errands, what else can you do? Don't tell me you are going to warm the bed of this Young Master. Xiao Chen smiled, "Why? If you can't do it, then I will find someone else. "
Bao`er immediately reacted. Her petite face was full of smiles as she said joyfully, "I can do it, I can do it. I will do it now. Young Master, rest assured, Bao`er will definitely do it beautifully."
Seeing Bao`er run out like a wisp of smoke, Xiao Chen smiled in satisfaction. Having a maidservant was not bad. At least he did not have to worry about running errands in the future.
