The Card Cultivation System

Gong Tao had just finished working on the documents about the handover of the female servant named Yan Fu after he had a problem with Xika when her assistant came looking for her.

"Head Gong!"

Gong Tao frowned. His assistant rarely panicked.

"What's wrong?"

"Young man yesterday. It's coming again."

"On time. I just finished these documents. Why the hell?"

"Young Master Cao also came."

"Cao Shi who will be the next Patriarch of the Cao Clan?"

"No, this is his sister. Cao Ping."

"What's wrong with her?"

"Young Master Cao came along with Miss Wu Liao. At first they were just looking around on the second floor. Then Miss Wu met a young man and it made Young Master Cao unhappy. They talked for a while and now the situation is heating up. I'm afraid that a fight will happen any minute."

Gong Tao directly walked towards the second floor with his assistant at the back.

"Didn't Miss Wu attempt to wound them?"

"No. He just looks enthusiastic."

Gong Tao scratched his head in a huff. Sometimes he was confused as to what the young geniuses were thinking. They are talented, but not infrequently they behave strangely.

"Who is that young man Miss Wu met?"

"Someone surnamed Xing."

Gong Tao again frowned.

"The same young man who made trouble yesterday?"

His assistant nodded. Gong Tao was getting more and more confused as to how he would resolve this matter. He is still careful with Xika, suspecting that the boy has some secrets. After all he could not see the child's cultivation level. Cao Ping is Cao Shi's younger brother who will become the future Patriarch of the Cao Clan. If possible, he would not want to offend them both. At least until he learns Xika's secret.

Finally Gong Tao and his assistant reached the second floor. But he did not go straight to Xika.

"What's up, sir? Didn't you intend to break them up?" asked his assistant confused to see Gong Tao who was only silent when he reached the second floor.

"Wait a little while longer." replied Gong Tao as he observed the two young men staring at each other.

Now he felt what Miss Wu felt. He also wanted to know Xika. How would a young man who came from somewhere in the middle of nowhere deal with Cao Ping who was one of the future pillars of this city?

------------------------

"Fuckin' shit! Why do you always create trouble? First in front of the city gate after that in front of many people, now in this place!"

Xika raised both her eyebrows.

"Eitherway. I never looked for trouble. Problems are always looking for me."

Cao Ping laughed contemptuously.

"Heh. So you said trouble was looking for you? Are you going to say that he also has legs and arms?"

"really. He even looks like a monkey and is standing in front of me." replied Xika with a plain face.

Reacted alone, all the visitors including Gong Tao and Wu Liao laughed. They didn't expect Xika to be smart enough to talk.

Cao Ping was both embarrassed and angry. Both of his hands clenched tightly and began to smolder.

---------------------

"Sir, do you have no intention of stopping them? It seemed like they were going to really fight." asked his assistant who was getting anxious. If the fight breaks out here, it will destroy various items and will cause no small loss.

"Awhile more. I'm still curious about the young man."

--------------------

Xika saw what Cao Ping was doing, but he just kept quiet without doing anything, making many people especially Gong Tao and Wu Liao ask. Previously Wu Liao had seen a bit of Xika's ability. He knew that Xika was strong enough and he was looking forward to what the young man would do.

Gong Tao was also the same as Wu Liao. He questioned what Xika would do. Unknowingly, Xika had realized her existence.

Cao Ping could not take it anymore. Seeing Xika's still calm face in front of her, the famous Cao Ping made her even more angry. He threw fireballs from both hands.

But the ball did not move as he wished. The ball did not go towards Xika, but rather towards someone who was in front of the stairs.

And that guy is........Pavilion Head?

The fireball headed towards Gong Tao and made the Yuan City branch Pavilion Head curse. He can no longer hide. This is what Xika planned. The boy knew of his existence. He intentionally did this to force himself out.

Gong Tao caught the two fireballs that Cao Ping threw. He squeezed it to the point of disintegration then lowered his hand and stared intently at Cao Ping. The gaze that instantly made Cao Ping lowered his head in fear.

"Young Master Cao, may I know what you're doing? Why are you throwing fireballs at me? Did the Cao Clan not consider the existence of the Pavilion?"

Cao Ping was getting scared. Cold sweat dripped. He did not dare to look at Gong Tao. Even under normal circumstances, her brother still did not dare to look directly into Gong Tao's eyes. Especially in such a situation?

Seeing Cao Ping not answering, Gong Tao called back.

"Young Master Cao?"

"I-this is not my fault....this is the boy's fault........"

When Cao Ping turned his head to point at Xika, he did not find Xika.  While Gong Tao only frowned looking at the direction that Cao Ping pointed at did not point at anyone.

Just like Cao Ping, Wu Liao and the rest of the visitors were shocked. They also did not find Xika where she was. Suddenly his voice sounded from a different direction.

"Mr Gong, we meet again. Is your business done?"

Xika appeared beside the window, where no one was paying attention. Both Cao Ping, Wu Liao and the other visitors were surprised to see him appear there. Even Gong Taopun was no exception.

"Young Master Xing?"

Xika walked over. While Cao Ping pointed at Xika with his index finger.

Xika frowned at Cao Ping's words.

"Sorry, do you know me?"

Xika's question again made everyone laugh. Gong Tao and Wu Liao were no exception. This was already the second time Xika had pretended not to know Cao Ping.

Xika did not care about the laughter around her. Now he stood in front of Gong Tao.

"Mr Gong, is your business done?"

Gong Tao frowned. In his heart he praised Xika. The boy faced Cao Ping in quite a unique way. Even though that way involved him.

"Please wait a minute." Then he looked at Cao Ping. "Young Master Cao. How are you going to explain this to me?"

"Ti-no...not me...at-he........"

Xika frowned as Cao Ping looked at her. Cao Ping's actions managed to make everyone laugh inwardly. They also praised Xika. The young man was smart enough to handle Cao Ping.

"I hope you'll give me a satisfactory explanation." Gong Tao looked at Cao Ping more and more sharply and made Cao Ping lower his head even deeper. Then Gong tao glanced at Xika for a moment. "I'll talk about this later with you. I have other business."

Then he looked at Xika. His face immediately changed and he smiled amiably.

"Young Master Xing, I just finished arranging the documents regarding that servant."

Xika nodded. "Where's the waiter?"

Both Wu Liao and Cao Ping were shocked when they heard Xika and Gong Tao talk. Does Xika intend to buy slaves? When thinking about that, Wu Liao sighed. He misjudged Xika. While Cao Ping was quite happy when he saw Wu Liao no longer had any interest in Xika. He no longer thought about the fireball.

"Hey! Bring her!" gong Tao said to one of the servants. The waiter looked down and then walked away.

Moments later, he returned with two others. One of them was the female servant who insulted Xika yesterday. His face did not look happy.

The servant brought Yan Fu towards Xika. While another person gave some documents to Gong Tao. After examining it briefly, Gong Tao handed it to Xika.

"Young Master Xing, this is the data regarding this servant."

Xika received the documents then read them at a glance. Then he said,

"So you gave it to me as a slave or a servant?"

"Ah, we've seen his performance over the years and he proved not to have enough performance. After I considered it I gave it to him as a slave. You stay signature on the back of the contract."

Xika nodded. Then he read the documents. He discovered several things such as the maid's name and cultivation level. On the last page, there was the Master-Slave contract. After he signed it, the girl would officially become his slave. The girl had been fitted with a slave seal. If he refuses his master's orders, then the sign will shine tormenting him and forcing him to obey his master's orders. Moreover, slaves could not be far from their masters either. Maximum distance of 50 meters.

Xika signed the contract. Then Yan Fu's neck shone and they had connected as Master and Slave.

"How do I release this Master-Slave mark?"

Everyone present was shocked to hear Xika's words. Especially Yan Fu. He had just signed kotrak and he had asked how to release it? Wu Liao realized he had been mistaken before. Yan Fu also looked at Xika with a different look than before.

"This........Does Young Master Xing want to cancel the contract? We can arrange it for you."

"I never said I was going to cancel the contract. I'm just asking how."

Gong Tao fell silent for a moment then nodded.

"This problem can be solved easily. If the Master's side is willing to release the Slave, then he will be free."

"Then what if the master's side doesn't want to release him? Is there any other way to break it?"

Xika's question came back to make everyone think. Does he not want his slave stolen? But Wu Liao did not want to guess too deeply.

"Ah. If someone is skilled enough in the field of symbols and seals, maybe he can break the slave seal. But it also has a high risk and is not easy to do. If the process fails, then the Slave will die immediately. In addition, there is no one hundred percent guarantee that the Slave will not experience the slightest side effect."

"Will it not affect the Lord's side?"

"No."

Xika nodded. It seems that this Master-Slave relationship is quite profitable.

Wu Liao stood at the side watching what had just happened. He had no intention of guessing anymore. He stepped forward towards Gong Tao and Xika.

"Anu, Chief Gong? May I know what happened?"

Gong Tao saw Xika first. The kid is pretty sensitive. After all, he had no right to say what would happen if Xika refused.

After Xika nodded, Gong Tao explained what happened yesterday briefly. Wu Liao nodded his head. Now he knows everything clearly. Previously he had thought Xika was buying a human and he felt quite sorry for Yan Fu. After knowing the true events, he no longer felt pity. It was indeed Yan Fu's own fault.

Meanwhile Xika felt confused with Wu Liao. He didn't mind telling her, but why did the girl want to know?

"Alright, thank you Mr. Gong. I'll be back now. You can continue your business."

After saying that Xika walked away. Yan Fu followed behind without speaking. Gong Tao turned to Cao Ping and looked back at him sharply making Cao Ping who had previously forgotten about the matter recall.

"Young Master Cao. Can we talk?"

After saying that, Gong Tao did not wait for an answer from Cao Ping. He immediately walked away with Cao Ping following him with his head bowed.

Wu Liao who saw that had no intention of accompanying Cao Ping.

"Then Young Master Cao, I will go for a walk first."

Cao Ping wanted to stop Wu Liao but he could not. Gong Tao stared at him sharply making himself have no choice but to follow him.

"Brother Xing, can we go together?"

And Wu Liao's words again aroused Cao Ping's anger towards Xika.
