The years flowed by, and in the blink of an eye, all the major forces on Five Dragons Island had smoothly developed for another year.
[Life Span: 149//599]
[Realm: Core Golden Early Stage (6/100)]
On this day, Lin Chang’an stood in the pavilion, a relaxed expression on his face as he gazed at the beautiful scenery of Celestial Spring Peak.
"Indeed, with the improvent in aptitude, the cultivation speed has also accelerated."
As the cultivation speed picked up, naturally, his mood improved as well.
Beside him was the Cyan-Horned Bull, its injuries recovered. Since it accidentally consud a mysterious black aura, this spirit pet’s bloodline seed to have mutated.
For over a year it was extrely lethargic, its size enlarged, seemingly with no significant changes, but Lin Chang’an discovered that the strength of this bull had increased several tis over in just a short year.
The bull’s hide beca more resilient, its horns harder, and its physique was quietly transforming.
This was quite similar to the evolution of the Phoenix Cry Bird, but the difference was one was a rapid rebirth by fire, and the other was a gradual evolution.
"Right now, the overall power of this Cyan-Horned Bull already exceeds the typical Quasi-Tier Three Demon Beasts, especially in terms of strength."
Inside the pavilion, Lin Chang’an watched the Cyan-Horned Bull lazing in the sun by the pool, shaking his head.
He wondered whether this kind of mutation was good or bad.
But as it seed, it wasn’t too bad; although it was purely a physical enhancent, it was better than the rumored worthless mutations.
At that mont, a sword servant dressed in a dark cyan battle outfit approached respectfully, presenting a Jade Scroll with both hands and began reporting.
"Master, these are this year’s earnings from Celestial Spring Peak. Among them, the spirit fish raised in the spiritual spring pond have been sold..., the spirit grass, though not yet mature, is in good growing condition...
Currently, there are twenty-three female cultivators from various families on Celestial Spring Peak, each of whom..."
Listening to the sword servant’s report, Lin Chang’an displayed a satisfied smile and nodded slightly.
Truly well-trained; over the past two years, Celestial Spring Peak was almost entirely managed by the sword servant.
With her Foundation Establishnt cultivation, and cultivating in the abode of Golden Core Cultivator Lin Chang’an, she was regarded as a trusted aide, possibly even a concubine by outsiders.
Her face still had the softness of baby fat, yet she wore a cold expression, creating an intriguing contrast.
However!
Lin Chang’an glanced at her attire inadvertently; it seed this girl was very clever, having put considerable thought even into it.
His mana was cyan, and her clothes were dark cyan.
And as he planted quite a few aesthetically pleasing spirit plants on Celestial Spring Peak and enjoyed collecting and browsing ancient texts, her attire was also adorned with simple embroidered green bamboo patterns.
Perhaps being cautious had beco second nature to her.
"Master, these are the yearly tributes sent by the cultivators from Profound Sound Pavilion, along with a few letters."
The sword servant respectfully presented a Spirit Stone Bag and several letter boxes with both hands.
"Letters!"
Lin Chang’an raised his hand, and these items landed on the stone table. Noticing letters from Yue Kingdom and Old Hu, as well as a stranger’s letter box, he frowned slightly.
"From now on, the trivial matters of Celestial Spring Peak can be set aside."
Lin Chang’an’s words essentially ant that the developnt and various profits of Celestial Spring Peak were insignificant compared to other matters.
Upon hearing this, the sword servant’s face turned pale, and she quickly bowed, saying, "Please forgive , Master!"
"Enough!"
Seeing the sword servant’s fearful expression, Lin Chang’an shook his head indifferently; he did not comfort her nor did he say anything further.
Upholding one’s role was fundantal in the survival laws of the Immortal Cultivation Realm.
The sword servant was, after all, purchased by him; it was her duty to adapt quickly to his habits, not for him to accommodate her.
Realizing she hadn’t been punished, the sword servant secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
It seed she had misunderstood; on Bibo Island, the female cultivators who trained them had ntioned that in the Immortal Cultivation Realm, benefits ca first, with most cultivators prioritizing benefits over relationships.
Apparently, her master valued relationships more.
For a mont, the sword servant’s tense face relaxed, but countless thoughts raced through her mind.
Lin Chang’an didn’t know exactly what she was thinking, but he had a pretty good guess.
It was nothing more than how to perform better to earn more status and benefits in the future.
"You’ve done very well in the past two years, and you haven’t slacked in your cultivation. Here is a reward for you."
Lin Chang’an nodded slightly, his expression calm, making it hard to discern his thoughts. With a wave of his hand, a portion of spirit stones flew out from the Spirit Stone Bag.
The spirit stones landed beside the sword servant as a reward, causing her pupils to tremble. The next mont, she hurriedly lowered her head and cupped her hands in gratitude:
"Thank you, Master, for your grace."
A pair of sowhat dim eyes rarely showed such emotion.
Spirit Stones! She actually received a reward.
Lin Chang’an’s expression remained serene as he gestured dismissively:
"Cultivate well, and next ti, change into a proper Dharma Robe."
The sword servant’s Dharma Robe was clearly unfit for a Foundation Establishnt cultivator, being sowhat low-grade.
He hadn’t renad her, which subtly indicated that he required more than just a servant girl to attend to his needs.
With Foundation Establishnt cultivation, there were many tasks she could handle for him, and she should naturally have what she deserved.
"Take this spiritual artifact for your usual cultivation and defense."
Casually raising his hand, a treasure sword with a black scabbard floated out from the storage bag.
This was a spiritual artifact he had crafted, suitable for soone with Foundation Establishnt cultivation to use.
Looking at the spirit stones in her hand and the spiritual artifact, which was extrely precious even for a Foundation Establishnt cultivator, the sword servant lowered her head with eyes filled with excitent.
"Yes, Master!"
Despite knowing he rely sought her strength, this gift still made her heart tremble.
