Xue Ke looked at the surrounding villagers. Their faces showed joy from the bottom of their hearts. Their wishes were so simple, they just wanted to have enough food, clothing and warmth, and live in peace.

The nobles of the Tiandou Empire were accustomed to living a corrupt life of eating meat and fireworks. These vested interests turned a deaf ear to the living conditions of the lower class people, or even knew nothing about them.

Xue Ke doesn't want to be such a person, she wants to be the person who changes the world!

And this first step starts with the people of Tianxue City.

The old man saw that Xue Ke was dressed in an extraordinary way and exuded a sense of nobility, so he knew that her identity was definitely not simple.

"The old man has something to ask of me. I wonder if the lady can agree?"

After saying that, the old man actually bowed slightly, as if to bow. Seeing this, Xue Ke quickly waved his hand, and a soft soul power lifted the old man up.

"Old man, if you have anything to say, just say it. There is no need to be so polite."

There was respect in the old man's eyes. Having lived to this age, he had naturally seen some soul masters and immediately recognized the identity of Xue Ke's soul master.

"The old man has no education and has never given my granddaughter a name. I think the lady is well-educated and sensible. Please give me a name for my granddaughter."

Xue Ke pondered for a while, then looked at the little girl's big, clear eyes and said, "Jian Jia Qi Qi, Bai Lu Wei Xi. From now on, will you call me Wei Xi?"

Wei Xi clapped her little hands happily: "Okay, I have a name!"

Xue Ke turned to look at the old man and asked, "How old is Wei Xi? Has he not awakened his martial spirit yet?"

The old man touched Wei Xi's little head and replied: "Miss, Wei Xi is only five years old and will not be able to awaken his martial spirit until one year later."

The only way for civilians to get ahead is to awaken the martial spirit. Whether they can advance to the next level is determined the moment the martial spirit awakens.

Xue Ke saw that Wei Xi was thin and frail, and his family was poor. Even if he awakened his martial spirit, he might not be able to practice.

What's more, Wei Xi was born as a commoner. Even if he awakens his martial soul, his innate soul power may not be too high, or he may even have no innate soul power.

"Old man, Wei Xi and I are quite destined. If she can have innate soul power after awakening her martial soul in the future, I would like to make her my subordinate. What do you think?"

The old man immediately said gratefully: "Wei Xi is lucky to be valued by the young lady. What future can she have by following the old man? Wei Xi, thank you very much, young lady."

The old man patted Wei Xi's little head gently.

Wei Xi said sweetly: "Thank you, miss!"

Xue Ke smiled and said: "I live in the center of Tianxue City. If you miss home, you can come back at any time. By the way, old man, do you want to come over with Wei Xi? I can still support you in my family if you have one more person." Got up."

The old man made a gesture to bow again, but Xue Ke quickly supported the old man to prevent him from bowing.

"Miss, you are such a good person!" the old man said with tears of gratitude.

The old man thought that there must be smoke coming out of the ancestral grave, which actually allowed the grandfather and grandson to meet such a good person like Xue Ke.

"In that case, just follow me."

Xue Ke took the old man and Wei Xi out of the village, hired a carriage, and headed towards the Prince Jade Mansion in the city center.

Wei Xi opened the curtains and looked at the bustling scenery outside the car window, feeling longing for it.

Half an hour later, the carriage stopped.

The grandfather and grandson followed Xue Ke out of the carriage and were immediately shocked by the scene in front of them.

Rather than saying this is a mansion, it would be more appropriate to call it a castle. It is surrounded by high and thick walls, and it is diverted into a river. The only passageway is a large suspension bridge. There are gardens nearby, and there are no residential buildings. It is majestic. .

The grandfather and grandson were so shocked that they could not speak. Xueke smiled slightly and led the grandfather and grandson across the suspension bridge.

The two guards standing at the main entrance were Xue Ke's former confidants in Tiandou City, so they naturally recognized Xue Ke.

"See Your Royal Highness!"

The two guards knelt on one knee and saluted Xue Ke respectfully.

Xue Ke raised his hand: "Sit down."

Seeing this, the grandfather and grandson behind Xue Ke were even more shocked.

Wei Xi is still young and only knows that Xue Ke's status is very noble, but her grandfather is different. Although he has never seen much of the world, with decades of life experience, the old man has some knowledge of the titles of princes and marquises in the Tiandou Empire. understood.The guard just called Xue Ke prince, which shows his noble status.

The old man said tremblingly: "Your Highness, please forgive the old man and my granddaughter for their previous disrespect."

The impression of the Tiandou nobles on the old man was too deep. Wei Xi's parents were bullied to death by the nobles in Tianxue City.

Xue Ke turned around and looked at the old man with a frightened look, and knew in his heart what the old man was afraid of.

Xue Ke took his grandfather and grandson into the vast world of Prince Jade's Mansion through the main entrance.

After entering, there is a huge martial arts arena that can accommodate thousands of people to practice together. A huge mansion with various features stands at the other end of the main entrance. There are continuous mansions on the left and right. It is impossible to visit these places in one day.

At this moment, in the martial arts arena, hundreds of people were divided into groups to practice swordsmanship, riding, and archery. Some even put on newly made armor and were beaten with various weapons to test its sturdiness.

These people on the martial arts field are just ordinary people, and the training ground for soul masters is at the Soul Fighting Stage at the other end, so the most lively place is the Soul Fighting Stage. Nearly a hundred soldiers are watching the battles of the soul masters on the stage, and from time to time Cheers erupted.

When Zhang Tianlin, the steward who was responsible for supervising the training of the soldiers, saw Xue Ke, he quickly knelt down on one knee to salute and said respectfully: "My subordinate Zhang Tianlin is here to see His Highness the Prince."

Zhang Tianlin's voice spread throughout the martial arts arena and the soul fighting stage. The soldiers who were training all heard Zhang Tianlin's voice and looked over one after another. They knelt down and saluted Xue Ke uniformly, and shouted in unison: "See Your Highness the Prince."

Some of these soldiers are Xue Ke's former confidants in Tiandou City, and some are new recruits. Although everyone knows that they are working for Prince Jade, Xue Ke, the Prince of Jade, usually seems to be invisible. Therefore, many people saw Xue Ke for the first time.

"Everyone, get up. You can continue training and ignore me." Xue Ke waved his hand.

The soldiers stood up uniformly and continued training.

"Mr. Zhang, you did a great job and trained them well." Xue Ke praised.

"Your Highness the Prince, thank you very much. These are all the duties of your subordinates." Zhang Tianlin replied respectfully.

In addition to being the steward of Prince Xueke's Mansion and the leader of the palace soldiers, Zhang Tianlin is also a member of the secret guards and a level 68 Soul Emperor.

In Tiandou City, Xue Ke gave him the construction drawings of the Prince's Palace and asked him to be temporarily responsible for all matters of the Prince's Palace in Tianxue City, including recruiting troops.

Xue Ke wants to cultivate a team of his own in Tianxue City.
