21: If you had an invincible background, what would you want to do?

【The Imperial Daughter unexpectedly lost by the Desolate Moon Ancient Clan has a bloodline seal within her body, preventing her from cultivating normally before it is unsealed.】

【Once the seal is removed, she will be blessed by the Moon God, awaken the Desolate Moon Magic Cloud Rabbit Bloodline, and her strength will advance by leaps and bounds.】

【Furthermore, when encountering a life-or-death crisis, the bloodline seal will unleash a devastating attack, powerful enough to obliterate experts of the Heavenly Human Ninth Level.】

"Hiss..."

Looking at the information that appeared before him, Xiao Chen sharply inhaled a breath of cold air.

Although he didn't know what the Desolate Moon Ancient Clan was, just the words Imperial Daughter made Xiao Chen feel suffocated.

What is... an Imperial Daughter?!

That is a title that only offspring of Emperor Realm experts, whether their father or mother, are qualified to bear!

This type of person stands at the apex of the Canglan World almost from birth, regardless of their talent or background.

With the support of their background, they only need to put in a little effort.

To reach heights that ordinary people can never achieve in a lifetime!

He originally thought that this kind of monstrous figure would not come into contact with him for now.

But Xiao Chen never expected that this seemingly simple maid before him was actually the Imperial Daughter of some ancient clan?!

Is this damn heaven playing too big of a joke?!

"Young Master, what's wrong?"

Seeing Xiao Chen's sudden expression of shock and disbelief, Yun Xi nervously raised her head and asked timidly.

She thought she had suddenly angered him.

"It's nothing..."

Seeing Yun Xi's timid expression, Xiao Chen finally came back to his senses, his eyes flickering as he continued.

"Yun Xi, Young Master will ask you a question..."

"If you find in the future that you can not only cultivate, but also easily surpass all your peers, reaching a cultivation height that even Family Head and the others cannot reach."

"And even possess the most top-tier background in the world, capable of destroying the Eastern Wasteland Seven Great Dynasties in a single thought."

"At that time... what would you want to do?"

As he finished speaking, Xiao Chen's voice became very low, even faintly solemn.

Yun Xi is currently just a maid by his side, vastly different from her true identity.

If one day her seal is removed and she learns she is a high and mighty Imperial Daughter.

He doesn't know if she will feel her past identity was a disgrace due to the psychological contrast, thus becoming corrupted and wanting to erase this stain.

If that were the case, then the Xiao Family would be in danger.

"Possess the most top-tier background in the world? And your cultivation has reached a very high level?"

Hearing Xiao Chen's strange question.

Yun Xi couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, tilting her head in serious thought, then replied with a serious expression.

"Hmm... Yun Xi will still be Young Master's maid, and whoever dares to oppose Young Master, I will beat them!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Chen's mouth twitched, and he continued somewhat exasperatedly.

"If you had an invincible background and your cultivation was far stronger than Young Master's, why would you be willing to continue being a maid?"

Some people remember the kindness of others when they are humble, simply because they have not reached the same height as others.

They need to rely on others to live better.

However, once their status, position, and strength far surpass the other party, their mindset will also change.

They might even wish to fiercely trample upon those who once suppressed them, making these people show her a more humble attitude, just as she once did.

Xiao Chen had spent two and a half years working in a factory and had seen many similar things.

No one is willing to rely on others; this is the most authentic side of human nature.

"Why wouldn't I be willing to continue being a maid?"

After a moment of silence, Yun Xi raised her head and said with a serious expression.

"From the time Yun Xi could remember, she had no family to accompany her, picking up things to eat on the streets every day, and often being disliked and chased away."

"That year, when it snowed heavily..."

"If Young Master hadn't given me a flatbread, Yun Xi might have starved to death on the streets."

"So Yun Xi secretly swore from then on... as long as Young Master doesn't dislike me, Yun Xi will serve Young Master for a lifetime."

As she finished speaking, as if recalling sad events from the past, a mist welled up in Yun Xi's eyes.

Her hands even subconsciously clutched Xiao Chen's clothes, just like when she desperately held onto him after he gave her a flatbread and was about to leave that year.

Her voice wasn't very loud, but it made Xiao Chen suddenly tremble, and the scene from that year also appeared in his mind.

Snow was falling heavily.

A five or six-year-old girl lay at the entrance of the Xiao Family, covered in dirt like a discarded little beggar.

And when he went out to play in the snow, seeing how pitiful she was, he ran back into the Xiao Family to get a flatbread for her and asked Xiao Zhan to take Yun Xi in as a maid by his side.

From then on.

Even though Yun Xi was two years younger than him, she would rush to help him with chores every day.

It's just that no one expected this seemingly miserable little girl to have a mysterious background.

"Young Master, are you saying all this... because you want to chase me away?"

As Xiao Chen recalled past memories, Yun Xi pitifully raised her head, tears already welling up in her eyes.

There are no 'ifs' without reason in this world; they are usually laying the groundwork for something.

Although she wasn't very old, she understood this principle.

There must be some meaning behind Xiao Chen's words; it's very likely he wants to trick her into leaving his side.

"Hey, don't cry..."

"This Young Master didn't say he wanted to chase you away; don't overthink it yourself."

Seeing that Yun Xi was about to cry the next second, Xiao Chen helplessly stroked her head.

It was hard to imagine that this maid, who would cry at the drop of a hat, actually possessed an identity that could crush anyone in the Eastern Wasteland.

"What Young Master really wants to tell you is..."

"You cannot cultivate now simply because your physique has not yet awakened; once it awakens, you will be completely transformed."

"At that time, your fate will also change accordingly, and perhaps your clansmen will come to take you away."

"However, no matter what changes occur in the future, remember not to regard your past during your humble times as a complete humiliation in your life just because your identity changes."

Thinking about what might happen in the future, Xiao Chen could only give her a heads-up now.

So that Yun Xi would be mentally prepared and wouldn't have difficulty accepting her past if her identity changes in the future.

"Young Master, what exactly are you talking about?"

"What do you mean my physique hasn't awakened, and what do you mean my clansmen will come to pick me up? You're making Yun Xi scared..."

Listening to Xiao Chen's inexplicable words, Yun Xi nervously grabbed onto Xiao Chen again, afraid of being chased away if she let go.

"Yun Xi has been wandering the streets since she was young; only Young Master cares about me."

"So in Yun Xi's heart, Young Master is the person closest to me, and the people of the Xiao Family are my clansmen."

"No matter what happens in the future, Yun Xi will not leave Young Master."

After speaking, a determined expression appeared on Yun Xi's face, seemingly showing her resolve.

"Okay, Young Master believes you!"

Seeing the silly girl looking at him with eyes full of devotion, Xiao Chen couldn't help but reach out and rub her head.

This girl seems single-minded; she shouldn't be an ungrateful person.

However, it's still too early to think about these things now; it's hard to say what will happen in the future.

What's more.

He has a cheat system on him.

Even if Yun Xi's bloodline awakens in the future, he has the ability to resolve all of this!

After that thought settled, Xiao Chen didn't think much more and turned around to take off his clothes.

Then, amidst Yun Xi's exclamation, he entered the bathtub to take a bath.

...

...There won't be a plot later where clansmen come to take her away and slap the protagonist's face; I didn't plan to write that kind of plot, so don't guess randomly...
