Looking at Kang Xia’s high fighting spirit and the happy expression on her, Tang Xiu asked with astonishment, “Didn’t you say your hands are full already? And you still want to manage this?”

“Well, just say the word and I’ll squeeze some time for it. It should be fine.” Kang Xia said.

Tang Xiu was at a loss whether he had to laugh or cry. “You won’t get burnt out?!”

With a high spirited manner, Kang Xia replied, “Boss, you can rest assured. I’m well aware of my own well-being and the situation. I know I have to ensure my own health to do my job to the best of my abilities.”

Tang Xiu thought for a moment, then slowly asked, “Anyway, do you mind if I ask you something private?”

“What private question? You can ask me anything…” Kang Xia replied with a puzzled expression.

Tang Xiu asked, “I’ve never asked about your family, do you have family members?”

For a moment, Kang Xia looked distracted as a touch of desolation and grimness flashed from her eyes. But then she shook her head and replied, “I was brought up by my American foster parents. But they have passed away a few years ago in a plane crash. I do still have a maternal grandmother- she’s married a foreigner old man. It’s been nearly a year since I visited her for the first time.”

Tang Xiu nodded and made a decision in his heart. Then, he said, “In order to ensure your health, I’ll teach you a set of cultivation exercise. But do remember that you are the only one who can practice this cultivation technique, and not in any way must you pass this to someone else. Also, you’re not to tell anyone that you’re also a practitioner!”

Exercising a cultivation technique?

Kang Xia was quite dumbfounded as she replied, “Uh, Boss, you’re kidding me, aren’t you? You think we’re still in ancient times, exercising cultivation practice, using True Qi and becoming a martial world’s expert?”

Tang Xiu’s brows slanted. His body then instantly appeared at her side. With a lightning fast move, he grabbed Kang Xia’s shoulders and threw her to the air. Along with the turning of his wrist, Kang Xia also rotated in the air. She screamed, but Tang Xiu ignored it. In next to no time, he already flashed and took along Kang Xia as they appeared outside the front gate of the villa’s courtyard.

“Bang…”

Tang Xiu put Kang Xia down. Her body staggered and then fell down with her bottom on the ground.

“This is…”

After she fell down, Kang Xia looked dizzy and distracted, but there was not the slightest anger on her face. Instead, her face was full of shock. She looked at the surroundings while her delicate body slightly trembled.

She was frightened! Yes, what she had experienced just now was as though a dream. If she hasn’t experienced it first hand, she simply wouldn’t have believed it.

Tang Xiu said lightly, “You see that we’re at the courtyard outside?”

“Yes!” Kang Xia nodded with a dull expression.

Tang Xiu grabbed her shoulders once again. He raised his speed to the limit. And within just two breaths, they had returned back to the villa’s hall as he even had Kang Xia back on the sofa.

“Now you believe that the martial experts still exist in the world?”

Kang Xia straightened up her sitting body and looked around. An alarmed and frightened expression was revealed on her eyes. After looking dumbstruck and tongue-tied for a while, only then was she able to speak. “Boss, I know that you’re a powerful martial art expert when you took me to kick the plaque of the Rising Dragon Martial School. But… to be this powerful was beyond my imagination. I can tell that even those martial world’s experts can’t achieve such a level.”

Tang Xiu smiled. “You do have a good vision and judgment. I indeed am not a martial art expert, but an Immortal cultivator. Perhaps, you haven’t seen such people in reality, but you must have seen these Immortals in Xianxia TV series or in the movies. But, the real Immortal cultivators are much powerful than those in the movies. They can control the forces of nature and can fly with flying swords. The truly powerful ones are even literally able to pick the stars and the moons and easily traverse everywhere in the starry sky without problem.”

“Immortal?” Kang Xia exclaimed out loud in disbelief.

“Correct. Gaining enlightenment and becoming Immortal isn’t a difficult matter. I’ll teach you an Immortal cultivation technique. If you practice well, you have the possibility to ascend and become an Immortal in the Immortal World.”

With a shocked expression, Kang Xia asked, “Boss, does our world really have the Immortal World just like the one that’s passed down in the fairy tales?”

Tang Xiu said with a smile, “The Immortal World in fairy tales is way too small. Wait until you obtain enlightenment and become an Immortal if you wanna see what would the real Immortal World looks like. You will see what kind of marvel and magnificence it has. By the way, I’ll teach you after the dinner. And do bear in mind to never mention about this to anyone, ever.”

Kang Xia nodded. Suddenly, her expression moved as she asked in a whisper, “Boss, you just asked about my family, are you afraid that I’ll tell this to my friends and family members?”

“Yes!”

Tang Xiu continued tranquilly, “I want you to become my true subordinate instead of an employee who just seek wages. I can assure you that your world will be unceasingly expanded. If you follow me, in the future, even if you want to tread into the void and adventure in the vast and boundless universe, it will be easy.”

Kang Xia furiously swallowed her saliva down as her breath turned faster. Then, she asked, “Boss! Can you teach Andy too? She has been following me for years, and she’s absolutely worth the trust. Also, her background is much pitiful than mine. She has no family left. And she has no other friends aside from me, Jack, and a handful of others.

Andy?
