In a magnificent mansion, a black-clad figure was present. Even though he was meditating on a jade futon, he exuded an unusual and detached aura. He was simply a distinguished individual, appearing close yet distant.
This handsome boy with a noble and transcendent air was Yuancho Wujiang. Despite being completely surrounded by strands of Qi energy, he had a calm appearance, as if he had control over everything.
In the blink of an eye, three days had passed since his last encounter with Ke Er. During these three days, he had never left his mansion because with the awakening of the Absolute Negator Body, his cultivation in the Refining Body Realm had automatically reached its peak and was close to the Innate Realm.
In the Four Kingdoms, the path of cultivation begins from the Refining Body Realm. The body is the foundation of an individual, and in the world of cultivators, this is an accepted law. Therefore, initially, a person must cultivate their body to be able to control Qi energy.
The Refining Body Realm itself is divided into four stages. In the initial stage, the cultivator refines the flesh; in the intermediate stage, they refine the bones; in the final stage, they refine the tendons; and at the peak, the cultivator will have the ability to sense and control Qi energy through their meridians. In this stage, the power of a cultivator reaches its peak in the Refining Body Realm, surpassing fifty thousand jin.
Of course, it should be noted that the true path of cultivation begins only after the Refining Body Realm. In the Refining Body Realm, a cultivator will have power beyond an ordinary person, with the ability to crush stones and break tree trunks with a single punch.
Yuancho Wujiang was previously at the tenth layer of the Refining Body Realm. When the Absolute Negator Body awakened, his cultivation automatically advanced to the peak of the tenth layer. This both surprised and excited him because it accelerated his advancement to the Innate Realm.
The flow of Qi energy grew stronger and more powerful moment by moment. One could clearly see strands of Qi energy swirling around Yuancho Wujiang's body. This created a stunning and beautiful scene.

On the other hand, in a beautiful garden, a slender and cute girl was sitting. The watery eyes of the beautiful girl watched the flight of small birds and colorful butterflies around the flowers and bushes. Even in a servant's uniform, she was very beautiful and pleasing to the eyes.
She was Ke Er.
For the past three days, the only thing that occupied her mind was Yuancho Wujiang's offer regarding cultivation. For a mere mortal like her, Yuancho Wujiang's offer was tempting, even more tempting than a large amount of silver and gold!
She had neither a background nor a position! Her status in her young master's family was very low because her young master was the trash of the family at that time. In the Yuancho Tribe, due to her proximity to Yuancho Wujiang, she had a notable position. However, she was well aware of her feelings towards Yuancho Wujiang, and she was sure he knew it too.
This tribe was like a nest of tigers for her. It is not a lie to say she wasn't scared. Until three days ago, Yuancho Wujiang's behavior towards her had somewhat changed from indifference to kindness. Of course, Ke Er thought that Yuancho Wujiang's kindness towards her was merely superficial and not genuine. She didn't exactly know what mask was hidden behind those gentle and charming smiles of Yuancho Wujiang.
Therefore, his offer to help her cultivate was like two sides of a coin. It might genuinely be help, free from any scheme, or a conspiracy!
But when she thought about it, she felt that it was unrealistic. Because plotting a conspiracy for a worthless servant like her made no sense. Her young master was also just a young master to her; to someone like Yuancho Wujiang, the nineteenth young master of the Yuancho Tribe, he was nothing more than a small-town boy.
She had also heard from the tribe's servants and guards that Yuancho Wujiang's position was much higher than it seemed. Therefore, no matter how she looked at it, plotting a conspiracy for her or her young master made no sense and was insignificant to someone like Yuancho Wujiang. He could easily erase her existence from this world with just a gesture.
So, she made her decision. With the image of that young and kind boy in her mind, she prayed in her heart, "Young master, please give me strength!" In such moments when she found herself alone, thinking about him brought her peace or even resilience.
Finally, she stood up from the bench. It was as if she had made the most important decision of her life, a decision that could change her destiny.

The guards and servants around could see the high concentration of Qi energy above their young master's mansion. Such a grand scene caused suspicion and doubt among them. Some even sat in meditation, taking advantage of the opportunity to cultivate. They had never encountered such a concentration of Qi energy before. After all, Yuancho Wujiang was not so cruel as to kill them just for such a small matter.
: "He is advancing to the Innate Realm!" In a corner of the surroundings, an ordinary guard was leaning against a tall tree. He was so ordinary that he blended into the background, and surprisingly, he was the same ordinary guard who had passed by Ke Er three days ago.
Meanwhile, inside the mansion,
At a certain point in time, Yuancho Wujiang opened his beautiful eyes. In his eyes, there was a sign of pleasure and satisfaction. "It was a success. I have advanced to the Innate Realm!" He could feel the primal energy flowing through his body. In the Innate Realm, a cultivator can control Qi energy and not only that, but they can also start cultivating martial skills. To cultivate martial skills, Qi energy is needed, and only after advancing to the Innate Realm can a cultivator control Qi energy.
In this realm, a cultivator can circulate primal energy through their meridians, which in turn enhances their senses. In this realm, not only does lifespan increase to over a hundred years, but the cultivator also gains an extraordinary physique, becoming no longer an ordinary mortal. The physical strength of an Innate Realm cultivator at the moment of breakthrough is ten times greater than that of the tenth layer of the Refining Body Realm.
This is why it is said that true cultivation begins only after advancing to the Innate Realm.
Yuancho Wujiang said with some admiration, "The Absolute Negator Body truly deserves to be the best among the Lost Constitutional Laws. Even just half of my effort was enough to create such a commotion." He could feel the dense flow of Qi energy. Absolutely, this was due to the abilities of the Absolute Negator Body.

For the past three days, he had spent most of his time studying his constitutional law, and although he hadn't gained much information, he had come to understand that the Absolute Negator Body could function as an energy-gathering array during cultivation, causing Qi energy to condense. This also resulted in faster breakthroughs in cultivation.
: "Young master, I request an audience!" At that moment, while he was admiring his Heaven-defying Body, he heard a sweet and familiar voice from behind the door of his mansion. He didn't need to guess who the owner of the voice was.
Therefore, retracting his primal energy, he said, "Come in!"
With his permission, a cute and visually striking girl entered the hall. She was so slender that she seemed to break with a normal breeze and at the same time convinced people to protect her.
This girl was actually Ke Er. This time, she gave a slight bow. In their last meeting three days ago, she hadn't bowed, indicating that Ke Er's behavior had slightly improved.
Yuancho Wujiang, with his jade-like hands, picked up a Chinese teapot that was on a table beside him and poured tea into his jade cup. Immediately, a spiritual aroma filled the air. It was obvious that the tea was not ordinary.
Yuancho Wujiang picked up the tea cup and took a sip. A flow of spirit energy was generated in his body due to the spiritual tea. "Good tea!" Then he looked at Ke Er and said, "So, have you made your decision?" Every part of his behavior contained a certain nobility and calmness that compelled people to admire him. Even Ke Er had to admit that the handsome boy in front of her was truly noble.
However, she didn't think much about it and said with a determined look, "I want to cultivate!" Her eyes showed no sign of fear or hesitation. Only determination. It was clear that she had resolutely made her decision.
Yuancho Wujiang said with a delicate smile, "Very well. As I said, I will help you. And I will not go back on my word." He valued and admired Ke Er's will and determination. Such people were truly worthy of respect.
Ke Er was somewhat happy because she could step onto the path of cultivation. She was only disappointed that she would have to start this path with the help of someone other than her young master. However, as long as she became strong, she could take care of her young master. With this thought, her determination became even stronger.
Yuancho Wujiang didn't know what this little girl was thinking, or rather, he didn't care. Putting down his jade cup, he said, "Before anything, I need to examine your body to understand how much talent you have. Or which technique would be most suitable for you!"
Yuancho Wujiang's words were like cold water pouring over Ke Er. She was just a servant with no background. Talent? If she had any talent, she would at least be able to sense Qi energy. After all, her young master had previously tried to help her, but it was unsuccessful. Could her hope be dashed?
Yuancho Wujiang simply said something. He had already seen Ke Er's talent through the system and knew that she had an exceptional talent for cultivation. He was just curious about the secrets hidden in this slender girl's body. Could she also possess a special constitutional law?
Ke Er closed her eyes and allowed Yuancho Wujiang's primal energy to enter her body. She could only hope that she had at least a small amount of talent for cultivation.
Yuancho Wujiang asked in his mind, "System, does she have a special physique?" A strand of his primal energy could feel a hidden force within this girl's slender body. And not just one energy, but two. Additionally, he had a sense that a certain seal had been placed on her body. This made him curious about her identity.
The Fate System of the Heavens responded after a brief pause, "Yes. She possesses a sacred physique called the Dark Moon Body. Apart from that, her body holds a unique imperial bloodline."
A sacred physique! An imperial bloodline!
Ke Er looked at Yuancho Wujiang with worried eyes and said, "Do I have no talent? Can I not cultivate?" Looking at her fragile and delicate appearance, Yuancho Wujiang felt as if he was looking at a treasure.
A sacred physique is only second to a divine physique, and not to mention that she possesses an imperial bloodline. Bloodlines are a special type of talent that can sometimes surpass even constitutional laws. The Hou family carried a pure bloodline, and this was enough for the family to dominate the Kingdom of Fierce Hell for generations and be one of the top forces in the Four Kingdoms. However, their bloodline was not even close to a royal bloodline. Not to mention, an imperial bloodline is even higher than a royal bloodline.
Yuancho Wujiang, regaining his composure, thought, [Absolutely, this girl's background is not simple. I must inform my second uncle as soon as possible.]
Yuancho Wujiang was not a fool. It was clear that Ke Er's background was not simple. If he made a mistake, it could cost him dearly, at least for him. He had to be cautious. At that moment, he realized that Ke Er was still waiting for his response, or rather, she had fallen into a swamp of despair from not receiving a response for too long. She had come to the conclusion that she had no talent for cultivation.
Yuancho Wujiang, clearing his throat, said, "I must say, you are truly something. Not only do you have the necessary talent, but it even exceeds the required level. I need to introduce you to my uncle and other elders." He tried to maintain a dignified demeanor, as he didn't want to appear flustered.
Ke Er felt like she had heard wrong. She asked excitedly, "Can I really cultivate?" In her dark eyes, two stars were shining.
Yuancho Wujiang stood up from his chair and moved towards the door of his mansion. Without looking back, he replied, "Of course. Come with me, we need to go to the main hall!"
He was trying to reach the main hall as quickly as possible to inform his second uncle about the situation because he felt that this matter was not simple. A young girl with a sacred physique and an imperial bloodline suddenly appearing in a small kingdom. No matter how one looked at it, it wasn't simple.
Ke Er, of course, didn't know what was going on. She was just happy that she had the required talent and could cultivate. Her small mind was only thinking about her young master.
