Chu Che looked at the crowd following him and felt helpless.
Was he a child?
They were treating him as if he had just learnt how to walk.
There were even 4 maids that dropped to the floor and clung onto his legs preventing him from leaving.
Sigh... rich brats who were deeply loved by their families truly had it all.
"Young master!"
"Young master!"
"Young master!"
~Ooooooooooooo!
"Young master, please don't go!"
(:YOY:)

.
Chu Che helplessly looked at the maids who were now clinging onto his feet with all their might.
All 4 girls were crying as if he would die the moment he left his town lord estate
And to make matters worse, the butlers, servants and guards all begged him too.
Wasn't this supposed to be a cultivation world?
Why were guys acting out of character from what he knew?
Well, it was understandable that they were worried.
After all, they had been told by the famous Alchemist Master Khiyu that he had to rest for 2 more weeks after taking the Eltar pill.
Chu Che knew that the pill was poisonous.
So after he got well, he had been sneaking out to find the truth for himself.
It wasn't that hard to find since he started with the servants who served and seemed loyal to Master Khiyu while he was sick.
Apparently, this Alchemy Master Khiyu was a 3-star alchemist who the Juang Bandits had already hired to kill him.
That's why after feeding Chu Che the Eltar pill, Khiyu hurriedly left.
The pill he created would sustain Chu Che's life for 3 days before killing him. And within the first 3 days, Chu Che's vitality would improve steadily on the surface, making everything else think that it was working.
But after that, he was supposed to die.
So when everyone saw that Chu Che's situation had improved, they paid Khiyu and even escorted him out of the city while listening to his instructions.
That said, after 3 days, Chu Che woke up, which made everyone within his palace believe Khiyu's words.
But if Khiyu knew that he didn't die, he would probably be shocked silly.
Who could survive such a deadly poison within the lower realm?
Was this some joke or something?
.
Everyone in Chu Che's palace was grateful to Khiyu.
So when they remembered his instructions, they were terrified.
Khiyu had told them that if Chu Che walks around without resting for an additional 2 weeks, he might drop dead.
Khiyu told them that the only way he was allowed to walk around is if he broke through to the 7th Dan.
Of course, Khiyu made this gibberish up, and they believed it.
"Young master, please! For the sake of our Che family, we can't let you go."
"That's right, young master. You need to rest for 2 more weeks and then concentrate on breaking through. Only by doing so will your days be longer."
Chu Che massages his chin: "Oh? What if I've already broken through?"
"Young master, you're still within the 4th Dan. Breaking through to the 7th will take some time. So no need to rush and get a backlash." Old Fru said anxiously.
"Old Fru, but what if I reach the 7th Dan?"
"Then we will naturally let you leave, young master."
"Good!" Chu Che said casually before aiming at one of the rocks at the back.
Boom!
The rock shattered into several pieces.
But that wasn't the most shocking thing.
The move from the young master was so powerful that it suppressed them all!
"Young Master, you broke through?"
"Hmm. 12th Dan."
"Oh, 12? That's good, that's... Wait! Did you just say 12th?!!!!!"
('0')
Everyone looked at Chu Che in both shock and awe as their mouths hung wide open.
Since when did their young master breakthrough from the 4th to the 12th?
Forget about him being more powerful than them.
No one in or around the town's vicinity was their young master's equal.
Only those within well-known large cities would be able to cause damage to him.
"Young master... when? How? You...!"
Old Butler Fru was the most shocked out of everyone.
One should know that the lower realm's Qi saturation was terrible.
So typically, it might take 1~50 years just to break through the different stages within each cultivation realm.
And the higher one ranked, the higher the number of years needed to break through each realm.
Old Fru was 231 years at the 10th Dan
But his young master, who was only 16, had already surpassed him and was now at the 12th.
How crazy was that?
"Young Master, you've really put this old man to shame." Old Fru said while smiling bitterly.
The other guards and the maids also felt the same way too.
All of them cultivated to protect the young master, even the maids.
But now, who would be protecting whom?
How could they be qualified to do their job now?
Before, even though their young master was a little stronger than some of them... the gap wasn't too big.
Now, they felt useless.
And since he had broken through, then why stop him?
He was not only fine but way stronger than they were.
Everyone stepped aside and bowed their heads in shame which confused Chu Che.
.
'System, why are they both sad and happy at the same time?'
[Sigh... Host... I'm beginning to feel that I need to download an E.Q software in your brain. Host, they're happy that you're healthy.
But they're also a little bit ashamed by their inability to break through.]
'I see.'
He had only broken through because of the original body's supreme genes and the removal of the seal.
In this lower world, he was indeed too outstanding.
Chu Che looked at them calmly: "Do you want to become stronger?"
"Yes, young master."
"Hmm... Alright. I promise you all that I will make you stronger before the end of the month." Chu Che said casually, and everyone looked at Chu Che warmly.
They felt like Chu Che was just trying to cheer them up.
Unlike him, they weren't that talented.
So how could they believe in such promises?
They only felt like their young master was kind.
.
Old Fru smiled happily: "Young master, let's forget about all of that. Since you're healthy, then we won't stop you anymore. But where are you going?"
"Hmm... I don't have any idea."
"_"
"Then, young master, why exactly do you want to go out?"
"To look for something."
Old Fru looked to the sky silently.
'Young master, will it kill you to say more sentences?'
After contemplating for what seemed like an eternity, Old Fru turned his attention to Chu Che again.
"Young master, I know you're looking for something. But what exactly is this something?"
"An empty building."
"Why?"
"Why what?"
"_"
Sigh... Forget it!
Old Fru decided to just do as he says and ask questions later.
Provided he was with the young master, then that was all that mattered.
"Young master, not too far away from here, there's a building within our control that we don't use anymore. It used to be a store owned by the Gregor Clan. They used to be at loggerheads with the old master. They fought against our family for a while until they were successfully driven out of town. And ever since then, all their properties now belonged to our clan."
"Good. Let's take a look at it."
Old Fru decided to try his luck again.
"Young master, why do you want the building?"
Chu Che froze: "Because of my master's instructions."
"_"
Master?
Since when did the young master have a master?
