As long as you do this well, we will send you back to your parents afterwards."
As soon as these words were spoken, the young men gradually stopped crying, and under the guidance of the Shen family's steward, they lined up and began to test their spiritual roots.
"No light, no spiritual roots, send away!"
“No light…”
“No light…”
"Gray light, mixed spiritual roots, send away!"
“…”
The team moved very quickly. Most of the young men had no spiritual roots or mixed spiritual roots, so testing their spirituality did not take any time at all.
The head of the family, Chen Fan, sat aside and watched, his heart sinking little by little as the number of children in the field decreased.
There is no hope...
He closed his eyes, unable to bear to watch any longer.
After testing a hundred children in a row, the housekeeper became somewhat numb and mechanically continued to shout, "Next!"
A burly young boy walked forward cautiously, not daring to look at the housekeeper, and stretched out his little hand to cover the spirit-testing bead.
In an instant, the spirit bead emitted a light green luster.
The housekeeper, who was used to seeing dull gray things, was immediately startled and quickly called out, "Master!"
Chen Fan opened his eyes immediately and saw the hint of green. He immediately sat up straight and stared at the spirit-testing bead without blinking, his heart pounding.
The young man was a little scared of being stared at, but he seemed to know that he had encountered a great opportunity. He did not take his hand away, and his eyes were waiting for the beads emitting green light, with a hint of anticipation in his eyes.
Unfortunately, the green light only grew halfway before it stopped and did not advance any further.
Chen Fan stared at the half-pearl green light in silence for a long time, and finally let out a long sigh.
It is a miracle that a mortal can have such a mid-grade spiritual root, but it is still halfway.
The Shen family's luck has finally come to an end.
“No need to test again.”
At this point, Chen Fan calmed down and said slowly: "Send the remaining thirty-eight people back directly. You go ask this child's parents. If they are willing, send him to the Shuanghua Sect for training. If not, it's up to him."
"yes."
The housekeeper looked sad and responded. Seeing the master get up and go back to the house, he was about to put away the spirit-testing bead.
But at this moment, a beggar girl suddenly walked out from the crowd, came close in three or two steps, and placed her palm on the spirit-testing bead.
"you……"
The housekeeper was stunned and was about to stop it, but he saw the spirit bead in his hand suddenly burst out with a dazzling green light, and then -
There was a loud "bang" and the spirit bead exploded.
The butler looked at the scene in front of him in shock and was completely stunned.
"What's going on?"
Chen Fan heard the noise and appeared in front of the door with a frown. Seeing the fragments of the Spirit Pearl on the ground, his face suddenly darkened and he said:
"One hundred spirit stones will be deducted from your monthly salary."
The housekeeper came back to his senses immediately after hearing this, and his voice changed with excitement: "Master, I didn't break the spirit bead, it's a top-grade spirit root!"
Chen Fan's pupils suddenly shrank, "What did you say?!"
He flashed and came directly to the side of the housekeeper, his eyes falling on the thin girl opposite.
The beggar girl turned pale with fright.
Chen Fan's expression immediately relaxed. He took out another low-grade spirit bead and placed it in front of the girl. He said, "Don't be afraid. Put your hand on it again and try."
The beggar girl pursed her lips and whispered, "What if it breaks again?"
Chen Fan's face softened, "If it breaks again, you will be the great benefactor of my Shen family. I will give you whatever you want!"
"real?"
The beggar girl's almond-shaped eyes lit up slightly, and without saying a word, she placed her hand on the low-grade spirit bead.
The next moment, the dazzling green light quickly enlarged in front of the three people, and then exploded with a "bang" again!
Shen Fan witnessed the whole process with his own eyes, and the haze in his heart was instantly swept away. He laughed heartily: "God will not destroy my Shen family!"
The housekeeper was also so excited that he couldn't help himself and kept congratulating: "Congratulations, Master! Congratulations, Master!"
After laughing, Chen Fan quickly regained his composure and said in a deep voice, "Seal the news. The existence of this little girl must not be known to anyone before the Sword Tower is opened, especially the Wu family."
"I understand."
The housekeeper nodded repeatedly and was about to go down to make arrangements when he was stopped by Chen Fan.
"By the way, what is the origin of this girl?"
The housekeeper looked back at the ragged girl and said strangely, "Master, she is begging on the streets of a small border town. I don't know where she came from."
Upon hearing this, Chen Fan turned around and looked at the beggar girl with a more amiable expression: "Little girl, where is your home?"
The girl looked lost and whispered, "Sir, I have been begging on the streets since I was a child. I have no home."
"So you have a home now!"
Chen Fan could hardly suppress the smile on his face. "From now on, your last name will be Shen, and you can be called Shen Ran, okay?"
The girl shook her head. Chen Fan frowned slightly and was about to ask back, but heard the girl say aggrievedly: "It doesn't sound good."
Chen Fan was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter and said lovingly, "Okay, okay, as long as you have the surname Chen, you can choose your own name, how about that?"
When the girl heard this, she immediately smiled, revealing a pair of pointed fangs.
"Then from now on, I will be called Chen Xiang."
Xiang Sheng, Chen Xiang!
