Chapter 4: The Unfortunate Young Master (Two Updates)
During the new book recommendation period, under normal circumstances, there are only two updates per day. Xiao Yu has saved up many drafts, waiting to burst out upon release. Brothers, please support more, and remember that collecting and recommending are the hard truths.
"Zzz..."
This pale yellow snake, about ten centimeters long, stared at Lu Shaoyou with its round eyes, its tongue flicking in and out. Then, it ignored Lu Shaoyou and continued to coil around his arm, seemingly falling asleep.
Lu Shaoyou carefully examined the pale yellow snake. It had densely packed scales that shone with a smooth luster. Upon closer inspection, this little snake seemed different from ordinary snakes, as if it wasn't entirely a regular snake.
"Brother Beast, you saved me, so you must want me to take care of this little snake, right? I owe you a favor, and I will take good care of this little snake," Lu Shaoyou said. If it weren't for the two beast cores the bat beast gave him at the bottom of the cliff, he might have frozen to death in the pond.
After delivering the changed clothes to his mother, Lu Shaoyou returned to his room. As the young master of the Lu family, the only difference between him and the servants was that he and his mother lived alone in this dilapidated small courtyard, unlike the servants who shared rooms with three or four people.
He slept soundly all night, having not slept for several days. This night, Lu Shaoyou slept very well, even dreaming of several beautiful women, almost to the point of nosebleeds.
"Master You, wake up, Master You."
Lu Shaoyou was sleeping soundly when a voice called out to him.
"Lu Xiaobai, I'm having a dream," Lu Shaoyou said, recognizing the voice as that of Lu Xiaobai, a servant of the Lu family who was the only one who got along well with him.
Opening his eyes, Lu Shaoyou saw a young man of about sixteen or seventeen standing before him, dressed as a servant. His own attire was similar. The young man had a somewhat shifty look, but if described positively, he was quite clever. Other readers are currently reading: Ultimate King.
"Master You, where have you been these past few days? Are you okay?" Lu Xiaobai looked at Lu Shaoyou and carefully examined him, whispering, "I heard that the Zhao steward and others beat you up, and then you disappeared. Did something happen? Did they hurt you?"
Lu Shaoyou could see that Lu Xiaobai genuinely cared about him. "I'm fine. I'll settle accounts with them later."
"Master You, are you running a fever? It's good that you're fine, but don't go looking for trouble. Do you want to die?" Lu Xiaobai said, looking at Lu Shaoyou.
"Master..." Lu Shaoyou suddenly remembered that in his previous life, there were places where "Master" was a profession. He immediately told Lu Xiaobai, "Stop it, don't call me Master in the future."
"If not Master, what should I call you? In the entire Lu family, only I and Uncle Nan call you Master. You should be proud, right? Hurry up and eat, I brought you breakfast." Lu Xiaobai glared at Lu Shaoyou and then took out an oil cake and handed it to him.
"Don't call me Master, you can call me Young Master," Lu Shaoyou said, feeling a bit moved. It seemed that the previous Lu Shaoyou had such a brother, which was quite nice.
"Fine, Young Master. Finish eating quickly, we need to go move things. Otherwise, that Zhao steward will find trouble for us again," Lu Xiaobai said to Lu Shaoyou.
"Move what?" Lu Shaoyou asked, puzzled.
Lu Xiaobai looked at Lu Shaoyou and said, "Do you think you're really a Master who doesn't have to work? Today, the shop has delivered a lot of goods, and we need to move them to the warehouse."
"I'm not a Master," Lu Shaoyou said. It seemed that being a Master to this extent was truly unfortunate.
"Alright, Young Master, let's go," Lu Xiaobai said to Lu Shaoyou.
Leaving the courtyard, the two headed towards the back gate of the Lu family, where the goods from the Lu family shop were stored.
Lu Shaoyou noticed that his mother was not in the courtyard. He knew that at this time, she should be in the laundry room in the back yard. His mother, who gave birth to him, should have been the second lady of the Lu family, but she had no status and continued to do the work of a maid, and because of being bullied, she had to do even more and harder work.
Lu Shaoyou knew he couldn't change this situation for now, but he gritted his teeth and resolved to change everything as soon as possible. To do this, he had to become a martial artist or a spirit practitioner.
According to the rules of the Lu family, even a servant would have their status immediately raised if they became a true martial apprentice. As for spirit practitioners, forget it; they were extremely rare. The Lu family currently had at most two or three spirit practitioners, each of whom was a precious asset to the family.
"Quick, the Zhao steward is ahead," Lu Xiaobai suddenly said to Lu Shaoyou after passing through several corridors. By the back gate of the Lu family, there were three figures, two dressed as servants and one as a steward.
Lu Shaoyou looked at the three, remembering that they were the ones who had accidentally killed the original Lu Shaoyou and secretly thrown him off the cliff. While they usually bullied him, they wouldn't dare to really kill him, as he still had Lu family blood in his veins.
Among these three, the two servants were high-ranking servants in the Lu family, usually serving only the first lady's household. The steward, around thirty-five or thirty-six years old, had a sinister look in his eyes. All three were servants brought by the first lady from her natal family.
Lu Shaoyou glanced at the three, a chill spreading through his heart. He had to get rid of these three; keeping them would be a great danger to him. These three, along with a few other maids, had bullied him and his mother many times.
However, the two high-ranking servants were martial apprentices and martial artists, and the Zhao steward had reached the level of a martial warrior. Even ten strong men would not be a match for the Zhao steward. It would be difficult for Lu Shaoyou to eliminate these three.
Lu Xiaobai led Lu Shaoyou out the back quickly. Not far from the back gate, a large open area was already piled with over a thousand bags of goods, each looking quite heavy.
The Zhao steward and the two high-ranking servants looked at Lu Shaoyou, all three instantly surprised. They exchanged glances, their faces turning pale.
"Steward Zhao, how can this kid... We clearly..." One of the servants, a man in his thirties, said in surprise to the Zhao steward.
"There's nothing to be surprised about. We must have been mistaken in the chaos. This kid has a strong fate; he didn't die even when thrown off the cliff. It's better he's alive. These past two days, the master has been investigating. For now, let's leave this kid alone and let him enjoy a few comfortable days," the Zhao steward whispered to the two beside him.
"Hey, why isn't the Zhao steward causing trouble for us today?" Lu Xiaobai said to Lu Shaoyou as he picked up a bag of goods, seemingly puzzled, as the Zhao steward usually found opportunities to trouble them.
At this pile of goods, dozens of servants were already working together. When they saw Lu Shaoyou, they barely glanced at him, paying no attention and treating him as if he were transparent. No one wanted to acknowledge Lu Shaoyou, as doing so would invite the Zhao steward's displeasure.
"It's our good luck," Lu Shaoyou said, thinking that these three must have been scared by his apparent resurrection.
