The voice of Gu Lingxiao rang in Su Chen's ears.

He suddenly looked up and saw Gu Lingxiao standing with his hands behind his back, dressed in a magnificent golden black robe.

But the several servants around him continued chatting as if they hadn't seen Gu Lingxiao.

"In their eyes, you are just diligently sweeping the floor."

"Who are you?!" Su Chen looked at Gu Lingxiao with fear.

How could such a strange thing happen in broad daylight?

He wanted to run away, but found that his legs couldn't move at all.

"Do you want to become stronger and wash away your shame?"

Gu Lingxiao looked in the direction of the servants who were chatting and joking, and Su Chen's gaze followed.

They laughed and chatted, occasionally mocking Su Chen, trying to find a pitiful sense of superiority in him.

Su Chen couldn't help but clench his fists.

How could he not want to become stronger?

It's just that his talent is too poor. When the Zhengfeng Sword Sect came to the Chengyang Wang Mansion to recruit disciples, they even tested him along with these servants.

But unfortunately, he was not chosen.

In the entire Chengyang Wang Mansion, only the Second Miss caught their attention.

"You want to...?"

"I will give you power, and you will help me with something."

Gu Lingxiao looked into Su Chen's eyes, without a doubt.

"Why... did you choose me?"

"Because you have talent. Make a choice quickly, I won't wait for you for too long."

"Alright. If you can give me power, then it's not a problem to help you."

"Very good, a smart choice."

Gu Lingxiao nodded slightly and lightly tapped Su Chen's forehead.

A warm current flowed into Su Chen's body, gradually changing his physique.

To Gu Lingxiao's surprise, the Heavenly Dao of the Extreme Sword Universe actually gave him a faint power of merit, as if rewarding Gu Lingxiao for helping Su Chen.

This was somewhat unexpected for Gu Lingxiao.

But these powers of merit were like mosquito legs to Gu Lingxiao when he was in the Emperor Realm, let alone now.

"Alright, feel if there's any difference in yourself."

"My body has become stronger! And I feel... the surrounding spiritual energy seems to be pouring into my body frantically. Is this the feeling of cultivation?"

Su Chen looked at Gu Lingxiao with excitement. He could feel the expansion of his strength.

And all of this was brought to him by Gu Lingxiao.

"The Chaos Myriad Sword Body, the highest physique for sword cultivators. I activated it for you, but to fully awaken this physique, you still need to wait for a while."

Gu Lingxiao said calmly.

This was Su Chen's own Goldfinger, given to him by the Heavenly Dao of the Extreme Sword Universe.

What Gu Lingxiao did was just to activate this physique in advance.

"There seems to be a martial art in my mind?"

"The Chaos Myriad Sword Art, tailored to your physique."

The Chaos Myriad Sword Body had appeared in the Immortal Domain before. The owner of the Chaos Myriad Sword Body created the Chaos Myriad Sword Art based on his own physique, and had once achieved the remarkable feat of annihilating a Dao Realm with a single sword.

Unfortunately, even such a powerful being did not surpass the Dao Realm in the end.

"Thank you... thank you!"

Su Chen looked at Gu Lingxiao excitedly and knelt down directly on the ground.

This was the second time he had knelt down to someone.

The first time was because the second young miss of the Chengyang Wangfu gave him some food on his deathbed.

The second time is this time.

Gu Lingxiao used his spiritual power to lift him up and asked, "Do you want to handle these people yourself or should I handle them?"

Su Chen's eyes revealed reluctance. "Ah? Do we have to kill them? Although they have bullied me before, their crimes do not warrant death."

Gu Lingxiao sneered, "To kill or not to kill is up to you. But think about it, if you only teach them a lesson, and in the future they encounter something more powerful than you, do you think they will spare you?"

Su Chen understood the reasoning, but it is easier said than done.

"So, your first task is to kill them," Gu Lingxiao said indifferently.

Su Chen's character is not yet formed, and this is a good time to influence him.

After speaking, Gu Lingxiao disappeared in front of Su Chen.

"E-Elder!"

Looking at Gu Lingxiao suddenly disappearing in front of him, Su Chen felt like everything that just happened was a dream.

In the eyes of the other servants, Su Chen suddenly stopped cleaning and shouted "elder" at the sky.

"What are you shouting for? Stop dawdling and quickly clean up these melon seed shells on the ground! You can't even understand a simple task, I don't know what you're good for!"

Su Chen couldn't help but give a fierce look at the servant who spoke, a fierce gaze that the servant had never seen before.

He couldn't help but take a step or two back, only to realize that the person standing in front of him was Su Chen, not some young master or miss from the Wangfu.

Being scared off by Su Chen's gaze made him feel very embarrassed.

"How dare you glare at me! You've gone too far."

"We're all servants, aren't you glaring at me now? Why can't I glare at you?"

Su Chen's response made the other servants first stunned, then burst into laughter.

They arrogantly pointed at Su Chen's nose, "Who do you think you are? Just a stray picked up by the second young miss when she was feeling soft-hearted. How can you compare to trained servants like us?"

Su Chen frowned, "Aren't we the same?"

His words undoubtedly angered the others, and they exchanged glances and surrounded Su Chen in unison.

"Kid, I didn't expect you to dare to talk back today. You've really grown bold."

"You..."

Before Su Chen could finish his words, several black lines pierced through the bodies of these servants.

Thick blood splattered onto Su Chen's clothes and...

Gu Lingxiao appeared in front of Su Chen once again.

"So long-winded."

"But..."

"Although you are still weak now, it's no problem to teach these people a lesson. Is it necessary to reason with them?"

Gu Lingxiao said coldly, unable to bear watching from the side any longer.

A bunch of useless talk, when he could easily beat these servants to a pulp with just one hand. Why wait for someone else to make the first move?

Perhaps this is the righteousness of the chosen one.

To strike back after being forced to, that's called self-defense.

To strike first would be against justice.

But when there has already been a conflict and the means to resolve it are available, why waste time with useless talk and even attempt to resolve the conflict?

"Go in."

Gu Lingxiao said indifferently, casually setting up a simple illusion formation in front of Su Chen.

Su Chen didn't hesitate and stepped into it directly.

Gu Lingxiao was satisfied with his decisiveness in this regard.

After all, the purpose of cultivating Su Chen for Gu Lingxiao was to raise a vicious dog that would bite.

He needed someone obedient and strong enough.
