Getting a Sugar Mommy in Cultivation World!!

"What is it?" Seeing the maid fidgeting in her seat, Xin Yan shook her head and asked. Her son was no longer in her embrace; instead, he was lying on the seat in front of them.

It took a while for Xin Yan to convince Wu Ping to sit on the same seat as her, but she finally agreed in the end when Xin Yan gave her the order.

"I…" Wu Ping lowered her head and clenched her robes.

"Are you thinking about that kid?" Seeing her hesitation, Xin Yan sighed and reached for the marks on her face, slowly removing them.

"Yes… I did not think he would be this… determined about my safety. After all, he knew nothing about me and still saved me." Since her face was lowered, she did not see Xin Yan's face and started pouring her heart out.

"Wu Ping, tell me something. Why do you think that boy wants to meet you again and is ready to go to such lengths just for that?" Xin Yan slowed down their flying carriage just so they could have more time for their conversation. She leaned back into the seat and turned her face towards her maid.

Confused by her question, Wu Ping raised her head, and as soon as her eyes met with a pair of beautiful blue, almost pearl-like eyes, she froze.

Since she was not a cultivator, Wu Ping was entranced by Xin Yan's appearance and natural charm.

She hadn't even realized that she had been staring at Xin Yan's face for a long time until Xin Yan clicked her forehead.

"Ouch!" Wu Ping snapped out of her daze and held her forehead in pain. "I am sorry, Madam!"

She immediately bowed to apologize when she realized what she was doing.

"Stop apologizing for every small thing and answer my question." Xin Yan chuckled slightly, surprising Wu Ping.

The maid thought that Xin Yan was an aloof person, but seeing her act like a normal woman, she was not only shocked but also seemed awed.

"He wants to… check up on me…?" Thinking about the question Xin Yan asked, she replied after a little thinking, but even then she did not seem sure of her own answer.

Xin Yan raised her eyebrows, hearing her reply. Even to her, the boy's feelings were plain as day, and that was a lot coming from a woman as dense as Xin Yan.

If Elysia were present, she would have pointed at her and said, 'Dense woman got herself a dense maid.'

Just imagining the smug look on Elysia's face, a tick mark appeared on Xin Yan's face. Taking a deep breath, she calmed herself and looked at the confused and clueless maid of hers.

"Don't think too much. For whatever reason he is doing it, getting stronger will only help him in the end. If it's bound to be, you would meet each other again."

Wu Ping nodded, hearing Xin Yan's words. Even though she nodded, she wondered what Xin Yan meant by the last line she said.

"We are here!" Wu Ping stopped her thought process after hearing Xin Yan's words. She looked out of the window of the vehicle, her eyes widening at the grand scene before her eyes.

Before her was a huge mountain, unlike any mountain she had ever seen, covered with trees and bushes.

"Oo-ooo-aa-"

*Crunch!*

Just then, a huge monkey covered in fire jumped out of the trees only to end up in the sharp beak of a huge eagle flying right below them.

Seeing the blood-filled, gory scene before her eyes, her face paled, and she almost vomited before jumping back in her seat.

Even though she had seen a worse scene when Xin Yan killed all those beasts, she was too focused on surviving to care about the beasts.

"Take your time and get used to it." Xin Yan's calm voice brought her thoughts back to reality. Her chest heaved up and down rapidly.

"This is the law of the cultivation world. Only the strong survive and the weak perish. If you want to be my maid, the first thing you have to do is get used to this kind of thing before I start training you." Seeing the woman looking at her, Xin Yan continued with a serious look on her face.

She did not just take her in out of pity; she wanted a personal maid for herself and Noah now that they had settled in Wuhan's sect.

"If you want to back down, now is the chance. I will drop you and your son in a safe place nearby." Wu Ping silently listened to Xin Yan as she continued. "But if you are serious about being my maid, this is the least of your worries."

"Don't think I am saying this all to scare you away; I am just telling you the reality of the world. If you are not strong enough, you might die before you can even be of any help to me." Xin Yan did not mince her words and spoke everything clearly to the maid.

The tension in the air suspended as Xin Yan looked at the woman before her deeply. Wu Ping gaped at Xin Yan's words. She glanced at her sleeping son and then at Xin Yan.

"Choose now. Are you still willing to be my maid, or do you want to live a calm, peaceful life in a city?" Xin Yan asked once more, forcing Wu Ping to make a decision on the spot.

"I…" Glancing at the peaceful face of her son, Wu Ping clenched her fist. Had she not been a mother, she would have made a decision on the spot.

On one hand, it was the safety of her son, and on the other hand, it was her word to Xin Yan. Even if Xin Yan said she did not mind her backing down now, she herself did not feel good about backing down on her own words.
