Ji Fengyao moved too quickly, and Yan Hanxing couldn't immediately tell what the black stone was.
Once he had the black magic stone in his hand, he realized that what Ji Fengyao had given him was a magic stone overflowing with demonic energy.
"How did you get this?" Yan Hanxing held the magic stone between two fingers of her right hand, looking at Ji Fengyao with a serious expression. Her tone was questioning, not accusatory, but rather one of disappointment: "Do you know what this is?"
Ji Fengyao carefully observed his reaction and changes, then glanced at the magic crystal in his hand that hadn't changed at all. With a slight smile, she answered irrelevantly, "Alright, I'll hire you and give you three times the salary. Make a vow to the heavens that you'll be mine for ten years. Of course, you can extend or shorten the term; that's your prerogative."
"But this thing..."
"This was found in the mines of the He family and the Dongdan family in the Monster Forest," Ji Fengyao interrupted Yan Hanxing, snatched the magic crystal back from his hand, and threw it back into her special storage ring. She winked playfully and said, "Want to know more? After you make a vow to the Heavenly Dao, I will tell you more secrets that no one knows."
Yan Hanxing felt her heart skip a beat from that wink. She pursed her lips, raised her right hand, and obediently made her vow.
A subtle ripple spread across the heavens and earth, proving that his oath to the Heavenly Dao had taken effect.
Unexpectedly, while robbing someone, he ended up picking up a master at the Great Completion stage, and the master even made a twenty-year promise to him!
The little bandit was so happy that her eyes crinkled with laughter, and she felt incredibly pleased with herself.
She walked up to Yan Hanxing, stood on tiptoe, patted his shoulder, and said with a roguish air, "Alright, from today onwards, you're mine. In times of crisis, you'll protect me, and in normal times, I'll make sure you eat well, drink well, and have no worries about cultivation resources. Let's cooperate, help each other, get rich together, and reach the pinnacle of life together!"
Yan Hanxing smiled faintly, a smile so beautiful it could topple kingdoms, and her voice became very obedient: "Okay."
His gaze fell deeply upon the now completely adorable and mischievous young female bandit, her few remaining sharp edges now gone. He thought to himself:
If it weren't for the fact that it was our first meeting and I didn't want to be too forward, lest I scare you away, I would have promised you my whole life with the vow I made earlier.
Twenty years.
Twenty years should be enough for you to remember me and fall in love with me, right?
If that's not enough, I'll promise you another lifetime.
"Come on, I'll take you back to meet your other friends," Ji Fengyao clapped her hands and turned to leave.
"Hey," Yan Hanxing took her hand and pulled her close, saying seriously, "You still haven't told me your name."
"Ah?" Ji Fengyao suddenly remembered this and subconsciously withdrew her hand, saying, "Oh, my name is Ji Fengyao, Ji as in 'female minister,' Feng as in 'phoenix,' and Yao as in 'beautiful jade.' They all call me Miss, and you too..."
"Yao Yao," Yan Hanxing interrupted her, her eyes looking obedient, "From now on, you can call me Xiao Jiu, and I'll call you Yao Yao."
Xiao Jiu, Yao Yao...
Ji Fengyao's heart skipped a beat.
Looking at Yan Hanxing's handsome face, which could make countless young girls commit crimes, yet which was nothing like Shang Xiye's, he felt very complicated.
Stay calm and don't panic!
This is all a coincidence.
"Your cultivation is higher than mine, so according to the rules I should call you senior; but since you are employed by me, let's not talk about a master-employer relationship, we can be considered friends, so I'll call you Hanxing, and you can call me by my name, Fengyao. Calling me Yaoyao is too intimate, I'm not used to it."
