48: A personal maid?

Time quietly passed.

In the blink of an eye, two days went by, and Zhang Yan frustratingly discovered that she actually lacked Cultivation talent.

As for Sun Erya, she also didn't feel the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi Body Tempering her.

Most likely, she didn't have it either!

Because of this, the two sat in Chu Yuan's courtyard, their pretty faces filled with disappointment.

"Brother Chu Yuan, we..."

Chu Yuan shook his head and smiled, "It's fine. Didn't I say that day? Even if you don't have it, I will help you acquire Cultivation talent."

As he spoke, he took out two spirit cleansing fruit that had been enhanced five times. "These are two Creation spirit fruit I harvested previously. They have a chance to bestow an Acquired Spiritual Root upon those without one."

"Having a Spiritual Root or not is an indication of whether you possess Cultivation talent. Originally, if you had a Spiritual Root, these two spirit fruit wouldn't be very useful, and I likely wouldn't have taken them out."

"But since you don't have one, the rest depends on your fortune."

After speaking, he handed over the two spirit cleansing fruit. "One for each of you. Consume them quickly!"

Hope instantly surged in their eyes, and they quickly accepted the spirit cleansing fruit.

"Thank you, Brother Chu Yuan!"

"Chu Yuan, thank you!"

After thanking him, the two didn't stand on ceremony and immediately tossed the spirit fruit into their mouths.

As the spirit cleansing fruit entered their stomachs, the two actually collapsed into unconsciousness.

Chu Yuan looked slightly surprised, but then saw faint light flickering around them, their bodies emanating a mysterious and strange spiritual aura.

Seeing this, Chu Yuan couldn't help but narrow his eyes, a hint of surprise visible within them.

spirit cleansing fruit!

He had copied ten of them at the time and enhanced these two simultaneously.

But what he hadn't expected was that after only enhancing them five times, the system prompted him that the energy was insufficient.

In other words, enhancing the spirit cleansing fruit extremely consumes source primordial power.

This also made him full of anticipation for the effects of these two spirit cleansing fruit.

Chu Yuan carried the two into the inner room to lie down, then guarded them while waiting in the main hall.

The sun rose and the moon set.

In the blink of an eye, night fell, but the two still showed no signs of waking up.

At this moment, Zhang Xiangwen and his wife, and Sun Erleng and his wife, came over one after another.

"Chu Yuan, where are Yaner and the others?"

Zhang Xiangwen saw Chu Yuan sitting in the main hall but didn't see Zhang Yan and the other girl, so he couldn't help but ask.

Chu Yuan stood up and said, "Uncle Zhang, please have a seat first. They are still Cultivating in the inner room and are at a critical stage."

"I don't know when they will wake up yet. If you are worried, you can wait here for now."

Hearing this, Sun Erleng and his wife exchanged glances and shook their heads, saying, "Chu Yuan, we came tonight because we wanted to ask a favor of you!"

Chu Yuan raised an eyebrow slightly and said, "Uncle Sun, feel free to speak. If I can do it, I naturally won't refuse."

Sun Erleng looked toward Mother Sun, signaling for her to speak.

Mother Sun nodded slightly and said, "Chu Yuan, we have probably guessed whether Erya has talent or not."

As she spoke, her expression dimmed slightly, and she continued, "As her parents, we also know some of her thoughts. So we want to ask you to take her in and let her be your personal maidservant by your side. What do you think?"

Hearing this, Zhang Xiangwen and Xu Jing's expressions changed slightly, and they looked at Sun Erleng and his wife in surprise.

Personal maidservant?

Isn't that a servant?

What were these two thinking, how could they let Erya become Chu Yuan's... Wait!

Zhang Xiangwen suddenly realized, giving the couple a meaningful look.

Chu Yuan's Cultivation talent is that of a Prodigy. If nothing unexpected happens, his future achievements are bound to be extraordinary.

Leaving aside the fact that Erya most likely has no talent now, even if she had slightly inferior talent, it would still be a gain for Erya to serve as Chu Yuan's personal maidservant.

Not only would her safety be guaranteed, but she might even advance further... Realizing this, Zhang Xiangwen was speechless. These two usually seemed quite honest, yet he hadn't expected them to harbor such intentions.

Chu Yuan was also slightly stunned, then shook his head and said, "Uncle Sun, Erya and I are just friends. This kind of request from you..."

But before he could finish speaking, Sun Erleng interrupted, "Chu Yuan, we have never asked anything of you. Now, for the sake of that girl Erya, we beg you this one time. We hope you can agree."

Chu Yuan opened his mouth to speak but didn't know what to say.

He glanced at the inner room, then shook his head and gave a wry smile, saying, "Uncle Sun, since you've put it this way, it would naturally be difficult for me to refuse."

Hearing this, the couple's faces brightened with joy, but then they heard Chu Yuan speak again:

"However, this matter concerns Erya after all. Let's discuss it once she wakes up."

Hearing this, Sun Erleng and his wife felt a bit disappointed, but they could only nod.

"Then it's settled!"

Saying this, the two stood up. "It's getting late. We'll head back now."

Chu Yuan glanced outside and did not try to keep them, standing up to watch them leave.

Afterward, he looked at Zhang Xiangwen and Xu Jing and said, "Uncle Zhang, I treat Yaner like a younger sister. Don't you two try that approach on me too!"

Hearing this, Zhang Xiangwen and his wife exchanged glances and chuckled softly.

Zhang Xiangwen said, "If Yaner had Cultivation talent, we might ask you to look after her, but since she currently lacks Cultivation talent, we will naturally advise her to give up."

Upon hearing this, Chu Yuan was slightly stunned, then immediately reacted, seeming to understand something.

Zhang Yan had been Cultivating for three days, and her frustrated expression when she arrived this morning was likely already known to the couple.

From this, it was not hard to guess that Zhang Yan definitely had no Cultivation talent.

No wonder the couple spoke that way.

Chu Yuan smiled mysteriously. "Uncle Zhang, there's no rush for this matter. Have a fruit first!"

Saying this, he took out two spirit cleansing fruit and handed them over.

Of course, these were only enhanced once!

And everything he took out from now on would only be enhanced once, and only once.

Upon seeing the two spirit fruit in Chu Yuan's hand, Zhang Xiangwen's pupils constricted.

The xuan yuan fruit belongs to the Second Grade, but the spiritual aura on it is not this dense.

This must be at least a Third Grade Spirit Medicine, right?!

Zhang Xiangwen quickly shook his head. "Chu Yuan, this item is too valuable. We cannot accept it!"
