38: Chapter 38 This beautiful fairy, you don't want anything to happen to your people, do you?

Cao Yang looked Hu Shan Tutu up and down, a flash of surprise and admiration crossing his eyes. He nodded slightly, saying with satisfaction, "Not bad, not bad at all in every aspect."

Then, he revealed a smile and said softly, "And a Nine-Tailed Fox at that, with Heaven-Defying Aptitude!" This sentence made Hu Shan Tutu happy, but she still remained vigilant.

Subsequently, Cao Yang's expression became serious. He waved his hand, signaling the women to withdraw their Aura. He looked at Hu Shan Tutu and asked in a calm tone, "Tell me about yourself. How did a Mahayana Yao Race member like you end up hiding in the Sima Family?"

Hu Shan Tutu gasped for air, her face pale as paper. She wiped the sweat from her forehead with a trembling hand, then took a few deep breaths, trying to calm the fear in her heart. Finally, her voice trembling, she replied, "My Lord, this little girl is named Hu Shan Tutu. I am an Elder of the Ten Thousand Yao Palace in the West Province and also the Old Ancestor of the Fox Clan..."

She paused for a moment, seemingly thinking about how to continue. Finally, she decided to be honest and continued, "The reason I am in the Sima Family is that I was ordered by the Palace Master to lurk in the Central Province. On one hand, to transport Cultivate resources to the Yao Race, and on the other, to create some trouble for the major Human Race factions in the Central Province if the opportunity arose. However, I have not yet had the chance to implement these plans, so all this time, I have not caused much trouble for the Central Province Human Race."

Hu Shan Tutu looked at Cao Yang nervously, waiting for his response. She did not know if this mysterious man would believe everything she said, nor did she know what her fate would be.

"Hmm, very good. You didn't lie, which saved your life."

Cao Yang could tell that the Yao Race woman before him was not lying.

Cao Yang stated directly, "You are quite good. Are you willing to be my personal maid?"

"My Lord, if I do not agree, will you kill me?" Hu Shan Tutu calmed her heart and said in a low voice.

"No, I do not have the habit of killing beautiful women, unless the other party is a heinous Devil Head." Cao Yang said with a smile.

Hu Shan Tutu felt relieved, but before she could refuse Cao Yang...

Cao Yang watched the changes in Hu Shan Tutu's expression, secretly feeling pleased. He knew that for someone like Hu Shan Tutu, the temptation of Immortal Ascension was immense.

Therefore, he continued, "Surely you can see that we are all Immortals, and my maids are all powerful Golden Immortals, while I myself am a True Immortal. We are not comparable to those minor Immortals in the Sects of the Tianxuan Realm. If you become my maid, Immortal Ascension will no longer be difficult for you, because this is just a starting point."

Hearing this, Hu Shan Tutu couldn't help but be moved. She knew deeply how difficult Immortal Ascension was for ordinary people, but for someone with her Nine-Tailed Aptitude, it was only a matter of time.

However, she was still somewhat hesitant; after all, becoming a maid meant losing her freedom and dignity.

Cao Yang saw through Hu Shan Tutu's thoughts, smiled slightly, and continued, "Moreover, we will soon be heading to the Immortal Realm. If you can become my maid, you can also enter the Immortal Realm early together with us. The Cultivate resources there are much richer, and it will be much easier to Cultivate."

After hearing this, Hu Shan Tutu fell into deep thought. She knew that the Immortal Realm was a place that every Cultivator dreamed of, and being able to enter the Immortal Realm early was undoubtedly a huge temptation.

But she was still worried about losing her freedom and becoming someone else's slave.

Seeing Hu Shan Tutu hesitating, Cao Yang sighed inwardly. He knew that making Hu Shan Tutu willingly become his maid would not be easy.

However, he was not in a hurry, believing that as long as he gave Hu Shan Tutu enough time to consider, she would eventually make a wise choice.

Regarding what Cao Yang said about being able to enter the Immortal Realm early, she was somewhat moved.

Moreover, although she did not know exactly how powerful a Golden Immortal was, she knew deeply that their power far exceeded that of a Human Immortal, so she felt anxious and uneasy about whether Cao Yang would easily let her go.

Cao Yang looked at Hu Shan Tutu, who was still indecisive and hesitant, and a strange look flashed in his eyes.

He spoke slowly, "Although I do not intend to do anything to you, I have heard that you are the Old Ancestor of the Fox Clan. Surely you would not want to see the Fox Clan fall into trouble, would you?"

After hearing these words, deep worry appeared in Hu Shan Tutu's eyes.

The corners of Cao Yang's mouth lifted slightly, and he secretly felt proud in his heart, "Little fox, I don't believe I can't handle you!"

"My Lord, if you can guarantee that you will not take action against the Fox Clan, I am willing to become your maid." After careful consideration, Hu Shan Tutu finally made up her mind and made this difficult choice.

"Very good."

Hu Shan Tutu hesitated to speak, as if she had a thousand words in her heart but found it difficult to express them.

Cao Yang noticed this and asked, "If you have something to say, just tell me directly. As a maid, you don't need to be too reserved. We can get along casually; besides, my maids are not just maids, but also Dao Companions. No one is allowed to bully any of you."

Hearing this, Hu Shan Tutu pondered inwardly. She had long been mentally prepared to become Cao Yang's woman. However, what she did not expect was that Cao Yang actually regarded her as a Dao Companion. In this way, her earlier worry that she would be reduced to Cao Yang's slave was obviously unnecessary.

"Thank you, Young Master! Actually, I am afraid that after following you, the Palace Master will take action against the Fox Clan..."

Once, an Elder defected to the Human Race, and as a result, the clan that Elder belonged to suffered the disaster of genocide at the hands of the Palace Master. Thinking of this, Hu Shan Tutu could not help but be worried.

"I thought it was something big; it's a minor matter."

Cao Yang thought Hu Shan Tutu's worry was unnecessary; it seemed she did not have enough awareness of the value of his status.

Cao Yang ordered, "Red Four, you go to the West Province and place some Restriction on that Yao Immortal, ensuring it does not take action against the Fox Clan."

"Yes, Young Master. Red Four guarantees the completion of the mission." Red Four suddenly appeared, replied respectfully, and then disappeared into the air.

Hu Shan Tutu said gratefully, "Thank you, Young Master. From now on, this servant is yours. I will definitely serve you wholeheartedly and will not hesitate to give my life for you."

Hu Shan Tutu's face was full of gratitude as she hurriedly pledged her loyalty.

At the same time, she thought to herself, it seems there are really many powerful and beautiful maids around the Young Master; she would have competitors in the future.

Soon, Red Four returned to report, having perfectly completed the mission.

Cao Yang pulled Hu Shan Tutu into his arms, letting the beauty reveal her nine fluffy white tails.

Cao Yang stroked them happily, making Hu Shan Tutu in his arms incredibly shy!

While Cao Yang was enjoying life, a major earthquake was triggered in Nebula City under the Xingyun Sect. Because the top brass of the Sima Family, one of the four great families, had been wiped out by a mysterious force, and some people with close relationships with the Sima Family had also died inexplicably. This matter caused the Cultivators in Nebula City to discuss it heatedly, and many factions also intervened and began to investigate.
