Soon, all eight men stepped forward, knelt on one knee, and swore allegiance to Ye Xiruo. Two of the four women thought for a moment before stepping forward as well. The remaining two women remained standing, not particularly interested in the olive branch offered by Ye Xiruo.
Moreover, Ye Xiruo discovered that the two of them were the most beautiful among the twelve. Perhaps they would have a better future; who knows?
“I am glad that you have chosen me as your master, and I believe you will not regret your decision today.”
"How much?"
These people all have hidden injuries and need to recuperate properly before they can take up their posts and realize their true value.
"A total of one thousand red spirit crystals."
"Isn't there a discount?" One hundred red spirit crystals for a slave? This price is outrageous. You should know that a normal slave can be bought for at most thirty red spirit crystals.
"Nine hundred red spirit crystals, that's the most I can give. You know, their talents are very rare."
"Alright, let's finalize the deal."
After Xiu Qiyu paid the spirit crystals, these slaves truly belonged to Ye Xiruo and Xiu Qiyu.
Ye Xiruo and Xiu Qiyu brought the slave back to the courtyard. Unlike the lively scene in the past, the courtyard was now much emptier. At least two-thirds of the people had gone to the restaurant, and half of them would be living in the restaurant's rooms from now on.
"Now go and tidy yourselves up. Gather in the hall in one hour."
"Yes, Master."
Sure enough, the slaves, freed from their shackles and cages and dressed in new clothes, gave off a different feeling; a glimmer of light appeared in their lifeless eyes.
"Hello, my name is Ye Xiruo, and his name is Xiu Qiyu. We will be your masters, but I will not sign any contracts with you, nor will he. You are free. If anyone wants to leave, they can leave now, and I will not stop them. Of course, your future fate has nothing to do with me."
A male slave knelt down and kowtowed three times to Ye Xiruo and Xiu Qiyu: "I'm sorry, Master, I still have to go save my brother. I'm sorry. If I can return, I will definitely be loyal to you."
"Go ahead, I won't blame you."
Then, another male slave left, saying, "I'm sorry, master. My hometown, and the people I care about, I'm so sorry, so very sorry."
Then, no one left.
"Very well. Since you have chosen to stay, I expect you to offer your loyalty. I will not inquire about your past identities or experiences. However, you must remember that I will be your master, and I will not tolerate any betrayal."
“I am an alchemist, a spirit winemaker, and a spirit chef. I can teach you these skills.”
"We will follow you for life, even unto death."
This seemed to be the power of a contract. Ye Xiruo seemed to sense the arrival of that mysterious power, and then it quickly disappeared.
"Now relax your bodies. I need to check your injuries and see if anyone has tampered with your bodies."
"Thank you, Master. Thank you, Master."
"You must understand that only by living can you create greater value for me."
"Yes, Master."
The green true energy instantly gathered at Ye Xiruo's fingertips, turning into countless green threads that wrapped around everyone's body.
After a short while, Ye Xiruo withdrew the true energy from her fingertips. Then, she took out eight bottles of top-grade Rejuvenation Pills from her empty key ring.
"This is a top-grade Rejuvenation Pill. Each of you will receive one bottle, and one pill a day. I believe it will be beneficial to your health."
"Thank you, Master. Please bestow a name upon me."
"You will be given my surname, Yoruichi, Yoruji, Yoruzo, and so on. Do you have any objections?"
"Thank you for bestowing this name upon me, Master."
"Alright, you can go back and rest now. Night Four and Night Seven, you two stay here."
"Yes, Master."
"Your injuries are somewhat complicated. Night Four, how did your mental strength get damaged? Night Seven, how long have you had injuries to your internal organs?"
"I was betrayed by my closest relatives. I wanted to die with them, but I was interrupted. Then my spiritual power and true essence were sealed, and I was sold to a slave owner. I wandered around many places, but no one valued me. I have almost become a cripple."
"These are top-grade Spirit Nourishing Pills and top-grade Soul Pills. Take them and consume them. Your condition should improve after half a month."
Green true energy reappeared between Ye Xiruo and Ye Si, enveloping Ye Si within it. The Qingyang true energy continuously nourished Ye Si's spiritual sea of consciousness, as well as his five internal organs and meridians.
Ye Xiruo had long since discovered that among everyone, Ye Si was the youngest and had the highest talent. Such talent was definitely considered a rare genius in the Taiyan Continent, and Ye Xiruo naturally did not want to give up on such a genius.
The most urgent task now is to save Shi Tiancai, who is on the verge of becoming a cripple. Otherwise, once he truly becomes a useless person, it will be too late.
Enveloped in Qingyang True Qi, Ye Si felt as if he were soaking in a hot spring, an indescribable feeling of comfort.
Meanwhile, his injuries were being continuously repaired. Could it be that her master was a gay alchemist? If so, that would be fantastic.
How are you feeling now?
“This is wonderful, Master. I’ve never felt this good before.”
"That's good. Now you can go back and get some rest."
"Yes, Master."
Next, Ye Qi received the same treatment. The moment he was enveloped by the Azure Sun True Qi, he finally understood why Ye Si had shown that expression. It was simply a miracle, utterly unbelievable. His young master was definitely a unique genius.
How are you feeling now?
"I feel much better now. Even breathing doesn't hurt anymore."
"This is a top-grade Lesser Rejuvenation Pill. I hope you will live up to its value."
"Please rest assured, Master, I will definitely not let you down."
"Alright, you should go and heal your wounds now."
This master is truly extraordinary. Others are eager to discover the greatest value of slaves, regardless of whether you are alive or dead, you must do as much as you can, and even if you can't do it, you must do it.
But this master was wasting his own true essence to help them heal, and even gave them such a precious spiritual medicine that they might not be able to afford in their entire lives.
"You're so kind to them."
"You reap what you sow; I believe you understand that."
"I was just jealous."
