Chu Lingwei remained silent. Why did she feel a pang of discomfort when her Senior Brother looked at that mermaid?
"Five hundred top-grade spirit stones."
Leng Xingzhi's voice suddenly rang out. Chu Lingwei turned her head, confirming the voice came from her Senior Brother. Her eyes dimmed, and she turned directly to the table, sitting down on a chair.
Five hundred top-grade spirit stones to buy a mermaid. Even though she was at the Supreme Realm, it was difficult to control. No one else dared to bid.
After all, the Overlord Realm powerhouses who could easily subdue Supreme Realm mermaids were not here for this mermaid.
"Sold."
When Chu Lingwei heard the word "sold" from below, a wave of闷气 surged through her. She felt an urge to leave immediately.
Soon, the Supreme Realm mermaid was brought in.
With the beauty before her, Chu Lingwei merely glanced at her. She had to admit, she was truly beautiful. As a woman herself, she couldn't help but admire the mermaid's beauty.
And her unfathomable cultivation.
Leng Xingzhi approached the mermaid and examined her carefully. "So it's a Curse."
Upon hearing Leng Xingzhi's words, the mermaid's eyes widened. At the same time, she was surprised. The cultivation of the two people in the room was not as powerful as hers, yet they could so easily see through the reason for her control.
"Who are you?" Shui Yi asked, staring directly at Leng Xingzhi. "If you let me go, I can repay you."
"Even if we let you go, you won't be able to leave here."
If she could be captured once, she could be captured a second, third time. Even if she fled to the Profound Sky Continent, she would easily be captured and brought back.
Shui Yi heard Leng Xingzhi's words, despair filling her eyes.
Although she didn't understand, she had escaped countless times, yet they still easily captured her. She figured they must have placed a tracking spell on her.
"What do you want me to do?" Shui Yi looked up at Leng Xingzhi, her heart shaken by the coldness in his eyes. She was certain this man would not want her cultivation.
"Junior Sister."
Leng Xingzhi turned around, saw Chu Lingwei standing far away, and his expression softened. "Weiwei, come here."
Chu Lingwei glared at him. Did he think she would praise this mermaid? What a dream.
"Weiwei."
Leng Xingzhi called out again. Seeing his Junior Sister still standing in place, glaring at him with anger, the smile on his face grew even wider. "Do you like this mermaid?"
"Whether I like it or not is not important, as long as Senior Brother likes it." Chu Lingwei pursed her lips tightly. As long as Leng Xingzhi liked it, she wouldn't question it.
At worst, she would distance herself from him in the future.
"That won't do." Leng Xingzhi walked closer to Chu Lingwei and took her hand. "This mermaid has a very high cultivation. Mermaids are warlike. A Supreme Realm mermaid of her age is rarely found in ten thousand years. If she can stay by Junior Sister's side, Senior Brother won't have to worry constantly about Junior Sister being bullied."
Chu Lingwei's heart jolted upon hearing Leng Xingzhi's words. She was stunned for a moment, unable to react. "This mermaid Senior Brother bought, is it for me?"
This mermaid was actually bought for her?
Chu Lingwei felt her face slowly heat up. What had she just done?
"If it's not for Junior Sister, who else could it be for?" Leng Xingzhi's eyes held a hint of teasing. Junior Sister's angry expression just now was too amusing.
Chu Lingwei turned away angrily, refusing to speak. It was clearly bought for her, but he said nothing, deliberately making her uncomfortable.
"Weiwei, come here."
Leng Xingzhi pulled Chu Lingwei to Shui Yi's front. A piercing gaze shot directly into Shui Yi's soul. "Remember, from now on, you are Chu Lingwei's maid. You must stay by her side. If you disobey, your soul will be annihilated."
Shui Yi felt a brand imprinted on her mind. This brand was tightly bound to her soul, inseparable.
"Yes."
Shui Yi immediately knelt down.
"Senior Brother, what did you just do?" Chu Lingwei felt a very faint connection between herself and Shui Yi.
She could feel that with this connection, she could kill the Supreme Realm cultivator before her at any time.
"She will be your maid from now on. Let her follow you and take care of you."
Leng Xingzhi waved his hand, and the restraints on Shui Yi dissipated.
Shui Yi felt that apart from the connection to Chu Lingwei, all other restraints were gone. Most importantly, she could freely circulate her spiritual energy.
This meant she could continue cultivating.
"Shui Yi greets Master." Shui Yi walked in front of Chu Lingwei and knelt respectfully.
"Get up."
Chu Lingwei was not particularly happy. She didn't really need a maid. She had so many secrets about her, and she really didn't want anyone else to discover them.
"Weiwei, are you unhappy?"
Leng Xingzhi could accurately sense his Junior Sister's emotions.
"I just feel that I can do things alone and don't need anyone to take care of me." Chu Lingwei's mood was complex. She hadn't expected Senior Brother to spend so many spirit stones just to buy her a maid.
She should be happy, but at this moment, she wasn't really happy.
"If you don't need her, you can have her stay away." Leng Xingzhi brought Chu Lingwei to the window and pointed to all the cultivators below. "There are some things you need someone to help you do."
"I know. Thank you, Senior Brother."
Chu Lingwei nodded. She understood her Senior Brother's intentions. For example, in Song City, if she had such a high-cultivation maid, she wouldn't have been stared at by so many people.
"If you don't want her to follow you all the time, you can let her enter here to cultivate." Leng Xingzhi took off a ring and put it on Chu Lingwei's finger. "This is a spatial artifact. It's fine for a cultivator to stay inside for a hundred years."
"So powerful."
Chu Lingwei looked at the ring in her hand. It was almost identical to her own spatial artifact.
"Senior Brother, you're so amazing. You even have this." Chu Lingwei couldn't help but admire him. Senior Brother was like a big boss in a novel, almost omnipotent.
"As long as Junior Sister wants it, Senior Brother has it."
Leng Xingzhi was confident.
Chu Lingwei turned her head and glanced at Shui Yi, who was obediently standing in the corner. With Senior Brother's ring that could contain people, she felt that having a maid to accompany her wasn't bad.
"Senior Brother, her legs." Shui Yi still looked like a human from the waist up and a fish tail from the waist down.
"Reporting to Master, I can retract my legs."
Shui Yi moved, and transformed into a beautiful woman.
Chu Lingwei nodded. This was much better. httpδ:/m.kuAisugg.nět
Leng Xingzhi watched Chu Lingwei playing with the ring he had given her, a smile on his face.
"Next, we have Song City's most powerful magical artifact."
Meng Wanyang's voice sounded again. Chu Lingwei looked up and saw a young man walking behind her.
