Full Time Servant

As a little servant, having King-level strength would be quite good for Xiaoyao. The Young Miss's dream was also to become a King-level warrior, then she could reign supreme here without fearing anyone.

Xiaoyao didn't want to surpass others or set himself a lofty goal beyond Emperor level. He had a reason why he had to cultivate—a reason he absolutely had to!

If others didn't practice basic skills, at most their foundation would be a bit weaker and their progress slower later. He was different—if he didn't practice basic skills now, he would—

Die.

That's right, if he didn't practice basic skills, his meridians would immediately burst. Due to a careless qi deviation incident, the true qi in his body became chaotic and had to be stabilized using basic skills.

That qi deviation was the result of his overly ambitious behavior. At that time, he felt he was chosen by destiny to become the protagonist of the entire world, so he would definitely succeed in cultivating anything. As a result, one radical action left him with extremely serious aftereffects.

And at that time, he almost lost his life.

It was because of that lesson that he understood: even if miracles happened, he had to be down-to-earth, proceeding step by step, accumulating bit by bit.

One or two miracles couldn't give you miracles forever. Heaven wouldn't always give you miracles unless you could create miracles yourself.

Fate had to be held in one's own hands.

"Medicine dregs—these shouldn't be wasted either. I'll give them to Chi Chi as a midnight snack! Fortunately, that little glutton isn't picky, or I really couldn't afford to feed it," After completing his cultivation, Xiaoyao looked at those medicine dregs that really couldn't be absorbed anymore, and he didn't waste them.

If the Young Miss were here, she would definitely curse loudly: This beast literally devours everything without leaving bones—everything can be eaten.

Actually, this was unavoidable. If Xiaoyao used good things to feed Chi Chi, then even giving him an entire Mo family wouldn't be enough to support it, let alone him being just a little servant of the Mo family.

And as Xiaoyao said, Chi Chi had one advantage—it absolutely wasn't picky. Even if you gave it a pile of garbage, it could eat it.

Of course, Xiaoyao wouldn't go so far as to give Chi Chi garbage. As long as he used leftover food from the mansion plus some other things people didn't want, he could barely keep Chi Chi fed.

Because of this, Xiaoyao took over the job of handling food waste in the Mo family. He didn't hide his purpose either—many people knew Xiaoyao had a very gluttonous little monster beast beside him.

Fortunately, no one in the Mo family cared about these things. At most, it just made some pig farmers unhappy, causing pork prices to rise.

However, Xiaoyao raising such a glutton seemed very strange to people. Even if it wasn't picky, the quantity was still terrifyingly large. What was a little servant raising this for?

This point had always been a mystery. Even after many years passed, no one knew.

In fact, Xiaoyao had no choice but to raise this little glutton, just like he had no choice but to practice basic skills...

Regarding eating medicine dregs, this was also an important food source for Chi Chi. Generally, waste medicine and failed pills from the alchemy room—those things Xiaoyao couldn't utilize—all became Chi Chi's food.

In Xiaoyao's words: Even medicine dregs still have medicinal power—don't waste it, let this glutton absorb it.

What? Whether it could absorb it or not? What did that have to do with him? It would be thrown away anyway if not eaten, and this glutton didn't care if things were good or bad—it ate everything. Rather than giving it to others, better to give it to this one.

"Chi Chi..."

Just then, the little glutton—no, little Chi Chi—came home, jumping onto Xiaoyao to act cute first...

...

Days passed one by one, and soon the Third Young Master's medicinal baths were nearing their end. How effective they were was still something quite a few people cared about, including the Young Miss who had nothing to do all day.

Of course, this scope was limited to the group of people who cared about the Third Young Master, plus certain servants who couldn't escape.

Today was the day to test the results, an important day for the Third Young Master's rebirth, and also an important day for Xiaoyao's liberation—if the Third Young Master could indeed be reborn.

"Tch, this is what you call improved strength? Utterly hopeless."

The Young Miss stood proudly in the center, speaking very disdainfully.

The Third Young Master was now kneeling on the ground, looking gloomy as if it were the end of the world, seemingly muttering something.

Still unsuccessful, I'm just trash, there's no point living...

Failure.

This word appeared in everyone's minds...

This scene was the result of the Young Miss volunteering to personally test the Third Young Master's results, and the process was that the Third Young Master was defeated by the Young Miss in a single move.

This result made everyone feel that the Third Young Master's medicinal bath results were a failure—all those days of effort were wasted.

At this moment, everyone looked toward Xiaoyao, because this whole affair was Xiaoyao's doing. The result was wasted effort, so everyone's resentment naturally focused on him.

"Kid, you're really useless, This medicinal bath effect is completely worthless." The Young Miss was the first to speak, addressing Xiaoyao.

"No..." Xiaoyao was about to speak, but after saying just one word, he was interrupted.

"Xiaoyao, are you tired of living? I've tolerated you again and again, but you still don't change, actually fooling us." The Second Madam was furious. Seeing the Third Young Master's current dejected state, she believed that without this incident, things might have been better.

Yes, the current situation was very bad for the Third Young Master. The higher the expectations, the greater the disappointment.

"That's not it, Second Madam, listen to me..." Xiaoyao hurriedly spoke, trying to explain something, but before he could finish, he was interrupted again.

At this moment, the Young Miss casually patted the gloomy Third Young Master kneeling on the ground and said with a laugh: "Third Brother, it's okay. You just failed—it's no big deal. Don't look like you're about to die..."

"I want to die..." the Third Young Master said negatively while kneeling.

"..."

"What more is there to say, I'm going to kill you." The Second Madam was now provoked, jumped up directly, drew her precious sword, and slashed straight at Xiaoyao.

Speaking of which, this sword strike from the Second Madam was first-rate in both speed and power, coming from an extremely sophisticated sword technique. If he weren't the one under the sword, Xiaoyao would have properly appreciated it.

"Damn! Second Aunt, don't kill that kid..." The Young Miss immediately flew over to save him. She didn't want Xiaoyao to be killed like this—she still wanted to continue finding Xiaoyao for entertainment to pass her boring time.

However, the Young Miss couldn't catch up to stop it. She herself was inferior to the Second Madam. Don't look at the Second Madam as just a woman—her martial arts cultivation ranked among the top in the Mo family.

The Young Miss was at most a newly advanced junior. No matter how high her achievements, she still couldn't match the Second Madam, this excellent senior.

"Wait, Second Madam, the Third Young Master does have results."

At this moment, Xiaoyao once again saved his own life with his words, just like before—a critical moment, even more dangerous than before. The Second Madam's sword qi had already approached his forehead.

At this time, the Second Madam didn't withdraw her sword qi. Perhaps it was because her cultivation wasn't enough to achieve perfect control, or perhaps it was just a warning she gave...

"..."

Xiaoyao looked at the ground behind him, which had been split by the Second Madam's sword qi—that deep sword mark. If it hadn't deflected at the last moment and had struck his body, he would definitely have been split in half.

The Second Madam truly lived up to being the Second Madam. This move was probably the most powerful one among the Mo family members.

"Ah, Second Aunt, is this move your family's inherited ultimate technique, Meteor Flash? So amazing! Teach me!" The Young Miss's eyes lit up, completely forgetting her original purpose.

This move was indeed currently the strongest in the Mo family—it was the Second Madam's family inheritance. The Second Madam's family's martial arts achievements were far higher than the Mo family's, and could even be called a first-tier martial arts family.

The Second Madam's family possessed ultimate techniques that could dominate the continent. This Meteor Flash was the most famous, though the Second Madam's mastery wasn't very deep, so its power naturally wasn't very great.

If it were a top expert from her family, what would be behind Xiaoyao wouldn't be a sword mark but a crack—a crack in the earth.

"Don't bother me! I can't teach you this." The Second Madam frowned. Even though she had learned less than 50% of this move, she couldn't casually teach it to others. This was her maternal family's inherited ultimate technique.

Not to mention teaching it—normally she wouldn't even use it. This time, if she hadn't been driven mad with anger, she wouldn't have used it.

"Xiaoyao, I'll trust you one more time. Tell me yourself—where are the results." After driving away the Young Miss, the Second Madam said to Xiaoyao.

Xiaoyao had once let the Second Madam witness a miracle—seeing her son come back from the dead. This made her inclined from the heart to believe what Xiaoyao said.

"Reporting to Second Madam, the Third Young Master has already achieved the expected results. Our medicinal bath was successful." Xiaoyao first made a formal report—he had to announce this achievement of his work.

"Haha, kid, don't you blush when lying? This is what you call achieving results? This is what you call success?" Before others could speak, the Young Miss was already patting the Third Young Master, speaking very disdainfully.

Right, this was also called results. Could it be that the result you wanted was the Third Young Master's failure?

"Young Miss, I'm not lying. The Third Young Master has indeed achieved results and become stronger." Xiaoyao said very seriously.

"Then kid, tell me why he's still so hopeless." The Young Miss looked at the Third Young Master kneeling on the ground and asked Xiaoyao.

"That's because of you, Miss!" Xiaoyao replied.
