Chapter 481: Request

~8 min read 1,410 words

After entering the room, Caidie took out the Jade Bottle containing the Perfect Spirit-Clearing Pills.

"This is..."

Seeing the Jade Bottle in Caidie's hand, Kunshan's expression shifted.

Caidie smiled, "I have always kept Senior Brother's request in mind; after leaving seclusion, I went to Wang Jianqiang's place at the first opportunity and had him help refine these Perfect Spirit-Clearing Pills."

Hearing Caidie's words, Kunshan could not help but show a look of being moved.

"You have worked hard, Junior Sister."

Caidie shook her head and presented the Jade Bottle to Kunshan.

Kunshan inspected the pills inside the Jade Bottle, then revealed a look of surprise.

Ten pills?

Generally speaking.

An Alchemist's success rate is mostly around twenty to thirty percent.

Perfect Pills must be even harder to refine.

In his original expectations, having ten percent would have been considered good.

He did not expect the harvest to exceed his expectations by double!

He tapped his finger on the bottom of the bottle, and five Perfect Spirit-Clearing Pills flew out from the bottle's mouth, hovering before Caidie, "Junior Sister, you take these."

Looking at the five Perfect Spirit-Clearing Pills before her.

Caidie suddenly thought of the scene where Wang Jianqiang would reward Xiao Keke with dozens or hundreds of Perfect Pills at a time.

She looked at her Senior Brother, who was full of grand generosity.

After a moment of silence, she shook her head, "Senior Brother, I don't need them; you take them all."

"That way you can reach the Fifth-Tier Will Peak as soon as possible, and then attempt to break through to Spirit Transformation."

Kunshan nodded upon hearing this.

His talent was slightly inferior to his Junior Sister's.

Fifth-Tier Will was already his limit; after reaching the Fifth-Tier Will Peak, he would have to attempt to break through to Spirit Transformation.

But his Junior Sister was different.

With her natural talent, she could fully attempt to reach the Sixth-Order Will Stage.

Afterwards, the two did not chat much.

After Caidie left.

Kunshan couldn't wait to return to the inner room, take out the Perfect Spirit-Clearing Pills, and swallow them.

Ever since bringing back the Perfect Spirit-Clearing Pills for Kunshan.

Caidie became increasingly afraid to go see Wang Jianqiang.

It was not that her disgust for Wang Jianqiang had increased; on the contrary...

It was because she suddenly discovered that her disgust for Wang Jianqiang had actually disappeared without her realizing it!

Having not seen Wang Jianqiang for only a few days.

She actually couldn't help but feel the urge to go find him.

The weight of Wang Jianqiang in her heart already showed signs of surpassing her Senior Brother!

After noticing her own changes.

She couldn't help but feel a bit of fear, afraid that she would not be able to hold onto her inner bottom line and would betray her Senior Brother.

But she could not tell her Senior Brother about such things.

Kunshan did not know her concerns.

He only knew that she had made a connection with Wang Jianqiang.

He wanted to obtain as many Perfect Spirit-Clearing Pills as possible.

Whenever the Perfect Spirit-Clearing Pills were exhausted, he would urge his Junior Sister to go ask Wang Jianqiang for help.

Caidie had unspeakable suffering and could only bite the bullet and go to Wang Jianqiang time and time again.

Regarding this.

Wang Jianqiang not only showed no impatience whatsoever.

Instead, as time passed, his attitude toward Caidie became better and better.

In Caidie's heart, his figure also became heavier and heavier, even encroaching upon her Senior Brother's position.

This day.

In his spare time, Wang Jianqiang was sitting on a chair resting.

Xiao Keke sat on his lap, pinching Spirit Fruits for him and feeding them into his mouth.

A knock on the door came.

Wang Jianqiang's expression shifted, revealing a faint smile.

"Ke Ke, go open the door."

He patted Xiao Keke's firm back, which had near-perfect curves.

Xiao Keke nodded, stood up, and came to the door.

She opened the room door.

Seeing the figure outside the door, she curled her lips, "Shameless."

Outside the door.

Caidie did not care in the slightest about Xiao Keke's sarcasm.

She smiled faintly, "What? Are you afraid of me?"

"Afraid?"

Xiao Keke gave a disdainful laugh, "You are inferior to me in every way; why would I be afraid of you?"

After speaking, she turned and walked into the room.

She sat back down on Wang Jianqiang's lap and gently peeled a Spirit Fruit to feed him.

Caidie followed into the room, and upon seeing Wang Jianqiang, her pretty face flushed, and she called out softly, "Master Wang."

As she spoke, she cast a glance at Xiao Keke.

As if competing, she came behind Wang Jianqiang and placed her slender, jade-like hands on his shoulders, beginning to massage them.

Wang Jianqiang lay on the chair with his eyes narrowed and said, "Caidie Fairy, have you run out of the Perfect Spirit-Clearing Pill I refined last time? How many do you want me to help refine this time?"

Upon hearing Wang Jianqiang's words.

Caidie's hands, which were massaging Wang Jianqiang's shoulders, paused, and a flash of hesitation crossed her face.

Wang Jianqiang looked back and smiled, "What? Have you encountered some difficulty? Tell me about it, and I will see if I can help."

A hint of being moved flashed in Caidie's eyes, and she looked at Wang Jianqiang earnestly, "Caidie has a matter I would like to ask Daoist Friend Wang to agree to."

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Wang Jianqiang's expression also became serious, "Although I wouldn't dare say I can cover the sky with one hand here in Wenxian City, there are very few things I cannot accomplish. If you have encountered any trouble, Fairy, just speak."

Seeing Wang Jianqiang's solemn expression, Caidie let out a giggle, "It is not as serious as Daoist Friend Wang thinks; I just want to..."

At this point, a flash of hesitation crossed Caidie's face.

"Want what?" Wang Jianqiang asked in confusion.

Caidie took a deep breath, "I want to stay by your side forever, just like Ke Ke."

Hearing Caidie's words, Wang Jianqiang revealed a look of surprise, "You want to become my maid?"

Caidie nodded and said firmly, "That is correct."

"Then what about your Senior Brother?"

Wang Jianqiang looked at her and said sternly, "Caidie Fairy, if it were before, I could not interfere in your life, but if you become my maid, it will be different."

Hearing this, a look of complexity flashed across Caidie's face.

She had indeed liked her Senior Brother once.

But she did not know when the shadow of her Senior Brother in her heart had begun to fade.

Now, when she thought of him again.

Only the bond of fellow disciples remained, with no special feelings left at all.

She shook her head, "He is just my Senior Brother. From the past until now, there has never been any improper conduct between him and me."

Wang Jianqiang was silent for a moment and said, "I am naturally very willing for a beauty like Caidie Fairy to take the initiative to become my maid."

"But I must still give you a warning, Fairy."

"Have you really thought this through?"

"I might as well tell you that due to certain special circumstances, Ke Ke only agreed to be my maid for a hundred years; after a hundred years, she will regain her freedom."

"But you are different; once you decide, it is for a lifetime."

"After becoming my maid, although I will not restrict your freedom, I will not allow my maid to do anything that damages my reputation in the slightest."

"After all, a maid is a person who stays by one's side and is considered one of my closest people."

Hearing Wang Jianqiang's words, Caidie not only did not show the slightest hesitation, but instead felt a sense of joy in her heart.

She was destined to only look up to a figure as brilliant and talented as Wang Jianqiang.

She had originally thought that becoming a maid, while a servant, would mean a low status.

But she would be able to stay by Wang Jianqiang's side forever.

She had not expected that in Wang Jianqiang's heart, the status of a maid would be so high!

What made her even more excited was...

Xiao Keke was only a temporary worker with a hundred-year term.

While she, however, was for a lifetime.
