Chapter 1329: Became a Servant

The woman said that, but in fact she was also testing Ye Liuyun.

If it were a spy from another tribe or had other motives, she would never be made a servant.

The custom here is just like that: once you agree to be someone's servant, you cannot betray the master. Otherwise you will be despised by everyone.

Thus when tribes go to war, the captives either prefer death or must spend their whole lives as servants until their own tribe rescues them. Yet no one would ever betray their master.

"Alright, I agree!" Ye Liuyun promptly answered.

Hearing that, the woman finally believed Ye Liuyun's words.

She smiled at Ye Liuyun and said, "When you regain your memory, you can take her and leave at any time; I'm not going to have you be my servant forever!"

"Thank you, master!" Ye Liuyun hurriedly expressed gratitude.

"You don't have to call me master; just know it in your heart. In our tribe, everyone's surname is Wan; just call me A Xing. What are your names?"

Here, people address outsiders formally, but among themselves they call each other by given names, assuming everyone has only one surname.

Ye Liuyun pretended to be at a loss and said, "I don't even remember my name. But when I woke up, the first thing I saw was the white clouds in the sky, so call me Ayun! She is Adao!"

Ye Liuyun told A Xing their names.

"Alright! Then I'll call you Ayun and Adao! Let's not chat at the doorway; carry your things and follow me inside! I still need to arrange a place for you to stay!" A Xing reminded Ye Liuyun and the others.

"Fine!" Ye Liuyun replied, and together with Ye Tiandao, they hoisted the wolf corpse onto their backs and followed A Xing into the tribe.

A Xing's cultivation is only at Body Refining Third Level. Yet she also serves as the tribe's healer, and being easygoing and friendly, she is very popular.

Along the way, many people greeted her, and some curiously asked about Ye Liuyun and Ye Tiandao's backgrounds.

A Xing simply said they were her newly acquired servants. The crowd wasn't particularly surprised by Ye Tiandao, but their gazes at Ye Liuyun were rather odd.

Ye Liuyun also knew it was because of his skin tone, so he lowered his head and kept a low profile.

"A Xing, you're back?" a young strong man greeted, his cultivation at Body Refining Eighth Level, and he proactively greeted A Xing.

"Mm!" A Xing also responded.

"Who is this person?" the man asked, his face wary upon seeing Ye Liuyun.

"Looks like this is A Xing's suitor!" Ye Liuyun thought to himself.

"This is my newly acquired servant!" A Xing briefly introduced.

"I see this pale face; doesn't look like anything good. Hand him over to me, and I'll give you another!" the man said.

Ye Liuyun heard that and muttered inwardly, "Just because I'm a bit whiter than you, I'm not good?"

"Ahu, what are you babbling? I'm just as pale. If you dislike me, stay away from me in the future! Let's go!" Saying that, A Xing led Ye Liuyun, bypassed Ahu, and continued forward.

The reason Ye Liuyun chose to approach A Xing was this: throughout the tribe, A Xing's skin is also fairly fair, comparable to his.

"You, a woman, look prettier being a bit whiter! He, a man, is also that white, and at a glance he's a useless person!" Ahu explained from behind.

"My affairs don't need your meddling!" A Xing, a bit angry, turned back and glared at Ahu.

"Fine, I'll pretend I didn't say anything!" Ahu didn't dare to provoke A Xing again, but as he left, he deliberately tripped Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun had already known what he intended when he tried to step forward. To appear a bit natural, he could only fall solidly, landing like a dog rolling in dung.

"Hahaha!" Ahu laughed, "See, truly useless, you can even fall while walking!"

After saying that, Ahu, fearing A Xing would settle the score, immediately ran off.

A Xing hurriedly turned back, helped Ye Liuyun up, and asked concernedly, "Are you okay?"

"I'm fine, just a tumble!" Ye Liuyun pretended not to care and said.

"Aren't you his servant? Not helping him and just sneering?" A Xing, seeing Ye Liuyun fine, instead blamed Ye Tiandao.

It turned out Ye Tiandao, seeing Ye Liuyun's over‑the‑top act, couldn't help but laugh.

Ye Liuyun's Physical Body, even the Ninth Heaven Sovereign level can't damage, a feigned fall doesn't even require her to assist.

She, for a moment, hadn't yet adjusted to her current role.

"Don't blame her; she's usually like that, a bit simple‑minded. But her heart is truly good! Sigh, we're all ill‑fated!" Ye Liuyun pretended to sigh.

"Oh, I see!" A Xing, hearing that, also showed a compassionate look toward Ye Tiandao.

Ye Tiandao at this moment was also trying hard to suppress a laugh, so his facial expression looked very odd.

This made A Xing think even more that she really might be a bit simple.

"Alright, as long as you're fine, let's go! That guy earlier was Ahu, that's just his nature. If he bullies you again, tell me!" A Xing said while walking, explaining to Ye Liuyun.

"Okay!" Ye Liuyun said outwardly, but thought inwardly, "Ahu, right? You wait for me—I've grown this big and never fallen this badly! This score, we'll settle it sooner or later!"

Then he sent a Transmission Voice to Ye Tiandao, asking her to act a bit more naturally.

"Yes, master!" Ye Tiandao's reply this time sounded very much like a master‑servant relationship.

"Sigh, let's just drop it!" Ye Liuyun, fearing Ye Tiandao would revert to her previously shy nature, thought it better not to demand more of her.

"Yes, master!" Ye Tiandao agreed again.

"..."

Ye Liuyun was also speechless.

"Fine, let A Xing think she's a bit silly!" he thought to himself.

"Sigh, a dignified Prince like me, ending up as someone's servant!" Ye Liuyun also mused internally, "Seems retiring isn't easy; we'll inevitably be bullied later!"

After A Xing led them back, she cleared out a cluttered thatched hut for them to live in.

Inside there wasn't even a bed, just a straw mat.

People here live a hard life; they're used to it. As servants, of course the treatment is even worse.

"My abilities are limited; this is all I can provide! If you regret it, you can still change now!" A Xing told them.

"It's fine, as long as there's a place to shelter from wind and rain!" Ye Liuyun wasn't too concerned about the conditions, after all they didn't need to sleep.

"Alright then, you all rest first; I have other matters to attend to." A Xing, seeing they hadn't backed out, felt quite pleased.
