"You see, this guy attacked me without even asking me when we met. He is obviously a typical person who doesn't trust others. So the question is... why didn't he continue to attack me violently after a brief fight with me, but just stood there and talked to me?"
Hearing this, Lu Meir suddenly realized: "Yes! This shows that his injuries are too severe to attack again! Oh, right! And his steps back just now were also much slower..."
Chu Tianxiao smiled slightly: "Not bad, the naughty kid has made progress."
"I told you I'm not a naughty kid!"
After hearing what they said, the young man couldn't help but frowned, his expression became even more stern: "Who are you?"
Chu Tianxiao asked back: "Do you know what kind of healing medicine I threw to you?"
After saying that, without waiting for the young man to reply, Chu Tianxiao said calmly: "It is a second-grade elixir, Huiyuan Pill."
After these words fell, Lu Meir immediately shouted loudly: "What?"
"Hui Yuan Dan?"
"You actually threw the Huiyuan Pill to an enemy who just tried to kill us?"
Lu Meir was so angry that she was almost speechless.
"Do you know that a Hui Yuan Dan can not only heal injuries, but also restore true essence. More importantly, it has a mild medicinal property. People at a lower level can also take it without any side effects, and there is no need to worry about being blown up by the medicinal power!"
"Even if this is a good medicine... I would not want to use it carelessly, but you... you used it without my consent..."
"You are wasting money! I order you to pick it up!"
Chu Tianxiao waved his hand: "When we made the three rules, I told you that you must not stop me from squandering money!"
"you!"
Lu Meir was speechless, and even the young man opposite was slightly moved: "You said you... are doing this to ruin the family?"
"That's right, don't think you are so great. I am not helping you. I just happened to ruin your family. So, don't have to feel any psychological burden." Chu Tianxiao smiled faintly and continued.
After hesitating for a long time, the young man finally picked up the bottle and opened it. A fragrance came to his face, and there was a huge pill sunk in it. After he made his decision, he did not hesitate at all and swallowed the pill without hesitation.
Chu Tianxiao's eyes gradually showed a trace of admiration. He just watched the young man gradually absorb the medicinal power of Huiyuan Dan. His face began to become rosy, and the bleeding arm stopped bleeding. The whole person's injuries were recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye...
"Eh? Weird... Although Huiyuan Dan is a good thing, it shouldn't have such a miraculous effect... Unless this person's life force is extremely strong..."
Lu Meir looked puzzled. After a while, she saw the spiritual energy around the young man dissipate. He stood up, his eyes sparkling, looking at Chu Tianxiao. After a moment of silence, he said, "Thank you."
Chu Tianxiao clasped his fists and said, "You're welcome."
The young man paused and said, "My name is Xueyan, I'm seventeen years old, and I'm in the lower realm of Mingyuan. I fought with a second-level high-level beast before, and was seriously injured."
"Self-cultivator?"
"good."
Chu Tianxiao nodded: "My name is Chu Tianxiao." He pointed at Lu Meir and said: "This is my sister Chu Yiyi."
Xueyan nodded expressionlessly.
There was a pause for a moment.
After a moment of silence, Chu Tianxiao asked, "What are your plans next?"
Hearing this, hatred showed between Xueyan's brows and he clenched his fists.
"I want to become stronger, then kill a man and dig out his heart to pay tribute to my eldest brother."
Chu Tianxiao said: "From your tone... that person is very strong? You are not sure about it?"
Xueyan was silent for a moment, and there was a hint of despair in his voice. He said, "He is not very talented, but... he is so lucky, it's almost... unbelievable."
Chu Tianxiao fell into deep thought after hearing this. The blood rock in front of him did not seem to be exaggerating. Moreover, he was clearly seriously injured before, but when Chu Lu and the others approached, he still took the initiative to attack instead of surrendering. This was enough to prove that he was not a self-deprecating and self-destructive person... Then, there was only one explanation for the despair in his voice...
"Could it be...his enemy is..."
As Chu Tianxiao was thinking, a beeping sound from the system suddenly came into his mind.
“Ding ding ding…”
"I have detected someone who meets the characteristics of a lackey. I suggest you take him in as a male lackey. If you succeed, you will be rewarded with 500 exchange points and the 'Four Main Lonely Legs' branch quest will be opened..."
Chu Tianxiao couldn't help but be shocked, and then almost instantly, he figured out the key...
I see…
It turns out that the 'real requirements' of the Big Prodigal System for lackeys are like this!
Is this an implicit rule
Chu Tianxiao smiled bitterly and shook his head. It was like they were on the same path with each other, and with the other princes of destiny.
"but… "
“This person is really good!”
"If I can recruit them as our fighting force, the plan I made earlier to defeat Qin Yun... my chances of success will increase by at least 20%!"
"It seems like it's time to lose the family."
…
…
After learning that the man in front of him was qualified to be a 'prodigal son's lackey', Chu Tianxiao's expression when looking at Xue Yan was completely different. It was exactly the same as the expression of a person who had been hungry for a day and a night when he saw a table of delicious food, which made Lu Meir panic: "Prodigal son, what's wrong with you? That look..."
Even Xue Yan looked a little unnatural: "You..."
"Ahem... It's okay, it's okay." Chu Tianxiao smiled awkwardly and said, "Um... Can you tell me more about the grudge between you and that person? Maybe I can help..."
"You?" Xue Yan looked at Chu Tianxiao and shook his head slowly, "You are far from being his opponent..."
"Hehe, don't be so arbitrary." Chu Tianxiao said calmly, "According to your reaction after swallowing the Huiyuan Pill just now, three wounds on your body have healed, and judging from their shapes, they should all be caused by ferocious beasts rather than humans. Among them, there are new wounds and old wounds, and each one looks enough to take life. It's all because of your strong support that you are still alive now... Am I right?"
Xueyan's expression changed slightly: "You are quite observant."
"Hehe... Then here comes the question. From what you just said, your enemy is obviously not very old, maybe even younger than you! And you, at the age of seventeen, are in the lower realm of Mingyuan, which is rare even in the Great Zhou, but you are forced to come here to undergo a life-and-death test in order to break through and surpass your enemy..."
Chu Tianxiao sighed: "Isn't this enough to explain the problem?"
Xueyan could not help but hold his fist tightly without saying a word.
"He is younger than you, not as talented, but he can force you into such a situation... Do you really think you can handle such an opponent?" Chu Tianxiao said, "You came here to test your life and death, but in fact, it is more of a self-consolation... You know very well that the gap between you and him will only get bigger and bigger! But you... can't beat him now, and you even lose the courage to attack. Your only advantage... Maybe he doesn't even know you exist? Yes, so your fighting method is this ghostly sneak attack. You practiced this skill hard in the hope of revenge, but you know the reality very well, so you just spoke of despair..."
After he said this, Xueyan's muscles bulged and his eyes seemed to spit fire. His icy face became extremely ferocious. He gritted his teeth and clenched his fists, staring at Chu Tianxiao.
Seeing this, Lu Meir was a little scared. She pulled Chu Tianxiao's clothes, signaling him to stop talking, or... run away quickly.
Chu Tianxiao didn't care about it. He shook his head and just looked at Xueyan without saying a word.
After a while, Xueyan finally controlled his emotions, his face gradually returned to its cold state, he unclenched his fists, sighed deeply, and said, "You are very powerful."
"Thank you."
"Yes, I do feel a little hopeless about revenge... But, I will never give up! Even if in the end, I just risk my life to leave him a scar, it will be worth it, and I have no regrets!"
Chu Tianxiao looked at him and said leisurely: "If it weren't for this, I wouldn't even bother to pay attention to you."
Xueyan was silent for a moment, then said, "You just said... you can help me?"
"Think about what you need first?"
“… I want to become stronger, very strong!”
"Then I can help you become stronger." Chu Tianxiao said slowly, "As long as you agree to be my... lackey!"
After a pause, he continued: "... one of them."
As soon as these words were spoken, the other two people in the room were all stunned on the spot!
