Chapter 3

Panda Novel

"Miss, don't worry. This servant knows what to do." Lü Tao closed the door and exited the room.

Leng Ruoxue is very satisfied with Lü Tao's performance. She might be a maidservant, but she knew her place and how to advance and retreat. She was someone teachable. Moreover, she had always liked such subordinates. In fact, Lü Tao might be treating her the same as she did with the Silly Ruoxue, but she would not blame her for that. She could see that the two maidservants really cared for the Silly Ruoxue and were constantly afraid that she would be injured, so they would therefore do more at times. However, this was because they were faithful after all. Thus, she would give them the opportunity to know that they did not need to treat her like the Silly Ruoxue before. It would be best if they could wake up on their own and be used by her. Lü Tao seemed to have realized what was happening, but Chi Zhu might need some adjustment since she was too pure.

Leng Ruoxue looked at the method again and confirmed the mnemonic chant so that she would not make any mistake. Then she sat cross-legged on the carpet and commenced the awakening. She closed her eyes and meditated silently with the mnemonic chant while seeing and feeling the spiritual energy in her body. The tiny, transparent, thread-like spiritual energy formed small clusters. This was the spiritual energy inherent in everyone's body, colorless and transparent. But it could only stay in the body and could not be used. However, it was precisely because of the existence of this spiritual energy that the lifespan of people in this world was much longer than the lifespan of people in her previous life. What she had to do now was to draw this spiritual energy out of the body and merge it with the immense spiritual energy of heaven and earth so that her body could absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and use it as her own. She felt the originally static spiritual energy in her body begin to flow slowly from her dantian. She sensed the beckoning of the massive spiritual energy outside of her body as her spiritual energy moved very orderly and went bit by bit out of her body. She knew that this was the key to eliciting the spiritual energy, and no mistake could be made, so she waited patiently…

After a long time, Leng Ruoxue opened her beautiful eyes. The brilliance in her eyes flowed, and her whole person felt more spiritual. She could feel herself being different from before, so it should be considered a success, right? Leng Ruoxue couldn't help thinking this, but she couldn't be sure. She hadn't seen anyone awakening with her own eyes after all. She looked down and found that her dantian no longer had a colorless and transparent cluster but a fist-sized colorful light ball.

What does this mean? Leng Ruoxue couldn't help but be stunned. Why is it different from what Lü Tao and the book said? This situation wasn't mentioned in the book, but it seems to be a success even though it's a bit different from what I know.

Leng Ruoxue closed her eyes again and prepared to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. After awakening, the body would be able to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth on its own and store it in the dantian. After storing enough spiritual energy, she would be able to break through and enter the next stage. The higher the stage, the more spiritual energy needed to advance. Similarly, the higher the stage, the more spiritual energy could be stored. Moreover, more spiritual energy would be needed for higher-level techniques.

Soon after Leng Ruoxue closed her eyes and began to absorb spiritual energy, she saw more and more wisps of spiritual energy swarming toward her from all directions, rushing to burrow into her body. And she herself was surrounded by a huge sphere of spiritual power. If anyone were here now to see this, they would be scared to death. How could anyone absorb spiritual power like this?

"Sister Lü Tao, why hasn't Miss emerged yet!" Cui Zhu's delicate face was full of worry. It had been two days, and she did not know what was happening with her young miss.

"Chi Zhu, Miss will succeed. We should have confidence in Miss." Lü Tao looked calm, but she was nervous as well.

"Xue'er, where is my darling Xue'er?"

When the two little servant girls heard the loud voice coming from outside the yard, they exchanged glances, and their hearts shook… "We're dead! Old Master is back!"

The tall figure towered in front of them just as they were fumbling over what their replies should be to the old master. The two looked at each other, and a wry smile appeared on their young and beautiful faces. Alas, with the extent of the old master's love for their young miss, if he knew that she had done such a dangerous thing and that they did not know what the current situation inside was, the old master would go crazy. Besides, no one could stop the old master in the entire country if he really went crazy and unleashed his full strength, save for his best friend.

"Why are you two standing outside instead of taking care of your young miss? Are you being lazy?" General Leng Qingtian said with great displeasure. He had hurried to see his precious granddaughter the moment he returned to the general's mansion. He got the two maidservants to take care of his baby granddaughter, but they actually allowed her to become injured. He rushed back immediately when he received the news, not daring to delay for a moment. However, when he saw these two girls whom he had carefully selected standing outside Xue'er's room panicking, his anger came up immediately. Hmph, I would have dealt with them if I hadn't received the news on the road that my baby granddaughter has already awakened from her coma.

"Old Master, it was Miss who asked us servants to stay outside. Miss said that no one is allowed to disturb her," Lü Tao, who knew their old master's temper very well, quickly said. Her nervous palms were sweating, and she only hoped that the young miss could immediately appear in front of the old master.

"What is Xue'er doing in the room?" Leng Qingtian's eyes were deep and unpredictable, but his tone was light and without emotion.

"Miss…"

"Tell me! The family law awaits if you dare to conceal anything!" Leng Qingtian said with a serious face and stern tone. He deliberately released a trace of his might. These servants seemed to be taking his words lightly just because he was away for a few days. He knew something was amiss the moment he saw their nervousness.

Lü Tao and Chi Zhu knelt on the ground with a plop. They were only at the Great Spiritualist stage and could not withstand the aggressive might. At this moment, the door of the room suddenly opened, and a breathtaking young girl dressed in red emerged. All three of them became dumbfounded.
