After a few minutes, the doorman returned, and next to him was a short man of approximately 1.65 meters. He wore a luxurious green robe, covering his whole body with flashy jewelry.
The man smiled, but his smile was unpleasant to Vlad.
"Young master Vlad, it's nice to meet you. My name is Fazio Callen. Mr. Marek told me that one day you would come".
"I need you to do something for me," Vlad replied indifferently.
"Please come in." A hypocritical smile was drawn on his face.
After entering the mansion, they went directly to the meeting room.
"What kind of resources do these people use to cultivate?" Vlad asked curiously.
"Young master, we live on a small continent surrounded by an impenetrable barrier, resource wise there are many beasts in the forests, and lord Marek buried higher-level celestial cores that allow for rich spiritual energy. We even have spirit crystal mines. I manage all resources".
"I understand. The reason why I came here is that I need 20 people to work in my shop and also five women who are willing to be my dual cultivation partners."
Vlad did not want to spend all his time in dual cultivation with many women, so he would only give five women a chance.
"Young master this…."
"I don't intend for them to be slaves. The people who work for me will be paid with spirit crystals. Their cultivation must be above the heavenly manifestation realm, and within 200 years, they are free to go. After a while, I will need more people so that everyone will have a chance. Select the best."
The excitement could be seen on Fazio's face as he, too, would have a chance to leave.
"For the women who agree to be my dual cultivation partners, they will be treated with respect. They will not be cultivation furnaces."
"Women's cultivation must be above the heavenly nature realm. In addition to receiving spiritual crystals and cultivation resources, they can obtain a liquid that will allow them to enhance their talent. After 200 years, they are free to go." The deal is the same.
"Sir, what you say is true. A liquid that can enhance talent? A resource that enhances talent even in the divine world is a treasure that people are unwilling to share. And can they get their freedom back? Fazio asked. He clearly doubted Vlad's words.
"What I say is true. I can swear if you don't believe me," Vlad said firmly.
"Don't worry, young master. Many people desire to regain their freedom, and 200 years is nothing in their eyes. I also want to work for you. Is it possible?"
'System. Description.
[Description]
Name: Fazio Callen
> Age: 5,232
> Race: Human
> Partners: 7
> Talent: Cyan
> Emotions: Respect
> Cultivation:
• Qi/ soul/ body: Heavenly Sovereign Realm, peak
> Bloodline: Bloody Earth.
> Special Physique: Divine Body Mountain of Blood.
'Such a small guy has so many partners. I guess it's due to his position and cultivation' Vlad smiled unconsciously.
"Your cultivation is trapped at the peak of the Heavenly Sovereign Realm. I am currently in a heavenly plane. If you go out into the outside world, you will immediately breakthrough. If you break through, will you not ascend?
Fazio hesitated momentarily before speaking, "I can stay in the heavenly plane if I want to. I'm not required to ascend. The only problem is that my cultivation won't progress until I go to the immortal plane."
'Fazio will be very useful as a guardian, and his talent is incredible,' Vlad thought.
He took out his divine brush.
"Swear on your soul that you will obey all my commands…."
'That damned oath. He is just like his father,' thought Fazio.
*Sigh*
After Fazio took the oath, Vlad kept the brush and told him: "Fazio talk to the people of this city. You have one day".
"Yes, young master."
"I don't want you to use this event for a profit. You must select the people who have the best character. I imagine you know all the town's inhabitants," said Vlad.
"I dare not, young master."
Fazio bowed slightly to Vlad.
With a thought, Vlad disappeared from the room.
---
Fazio went to the center of the city. He stood in the sky and used his Qi to hear his voice everywhere.
"Fellow cultivators, please gather everyone. I have an announcement."
After a few minutes, the sky was filled with people.
"Mr. Fazio, what is the reason for the meeting?"
"Does it have something to do with the young man who appeared in the city today?"
"Fazio, do you want to buy a new wife?"
"Hahahahaha" everyone present laughed.
The man who made the joke was Klaus. He had the same cultivation as Fazio.
No one would dare to joke with Fazio if he didn't have the strength as the little man gets angry easily.
"Today, I received a visit from the young master Vlad, son of Marek."
They all stopped laughing and turned serious. The name Marek caused different emotions among cultivators.
Some hate him, others fear him, but everyone respects him. Marek gave them a chance, and although he could kill them, he let them live and provided them with some resources.
Some of the people here offended the Rurik Clan. They were sentenced to death, but Marek offered them a way out.
Many of them were grateful to Marek.
One hundred years ago, Marek found out that Celeste was pregnant. At that time, he made the preparations so that Vlad could use these people.
Marek told these cultivators that they would have a chance to regain their freedom if they made a deal with his son, and it seems that day has come.
"Talk fast, Fazio. What's the deal?"
The cultivators began to grow impatient.
Fazio repeated everything Vlad told him, word for word.
To conclude, Fazio said: "I want to clarify that the young master will not force any woman. They can all rest easy."
"Marek's son is handsome?" asked one of the women.
They all rolled their eyes.
"This bitch sure wants to get her claws on him."
"Yes, poor boy, she will surely blow him dry."
Many people openly criticized her.
Her cultivation was at the Heavenly King realm, early stage, she had no friends or family to back her up, so people had no qualms about putting the worst labels on her.
The reality was different from what people said. She was a virgin and had never been related to any man.
All those who criticized her were men who she rejected.
Fazio interrupted, "I advise you to shut up. Maybe she will be selected by the young master Vlad. If she wins his favor, then their lives will be miserable."
All of the cultivators who had previously ridiculed the woman fell silent.
Fazio looked at them with disdain.
The figure of a young man has projected into the sky thanks to Fazio's Qi, "this is young master, Vlad. His appearance is way above average. His cultivation is in the Heavenly manifestation Realm."
"Vlad is 18 years old."
"According to what Mr. Marek told me last time, Vlad's talent surpasses his father's," Fazio said.
"He is so handsome and tall."
"Yes, he is also very talented."
"If I win his heart, my life will change."
Many women spoke without any shame.
"..."
Most of the men were jealous.
Things were heating up, so Fazio stepped in.
"People who want to work for the young master, please step forward. I will select the 20 cultivators. I will assess each person's strength and aptitude."
A total of 500 people approached Fazio to try to pass the selection.
In the end, Fazio chose 11 Celestial Lord realm cultivators, 5 Celestial Kings, 3 Celestial Emperors, and 1 Celestial Sovereign.
They were a powerful lineup on the celestial plane. Only someone like Vlad would have the means to hire them to work in his shop.
"Women who want to become young master's cultivation partners can come to my house for the night," Fazio said.
"Fazio, how do we know you won't do something to women who come to your mansion at night?" Someone shouted in the crowd.
As everyone watched, Fazio laughed, "I really dare not, and the young master made me swear that I would not get any benefit from this. You know what the consequences of breaking an oath are."
"People who weren't selected, don't worry. There will be another chance later. That's what young Vlad told me."
After leaving these words, Fazio disappeared, and the crowd dispersed.
After Vlad went out into the outside world, he appeared in the bedroom of his new house. Two women were waiting for him. They were chatting happily and seemed like old friends.
This was beyond Vlad's expectations.
Vlad smiled and said, "I was gone for a few hours. I'm glad they settled their differences."
The women smiled.
