Chapter 86: Chapter 74: Do You Smell Like Another Woman?_2
Translator: 549690339
Lu Changsheng nodded slightly, picked up a Jade Slip, and placed it on his forehead, sensing it with his Mental Spirit.
He immediately saw a vivid, lifelike image of a young woman in a yellow dress.
This woman was about eighteen or nineteen years old, with an above-average face and figure, except her eyes lacked luster, carrying a sense of numbness and lifelessness.
Despite the smile on her face, it was evident that it was a forced smile.
He shook his head slightly and picked up the second Jade Slip.
It contained the image of a twenty-something female in white, much like the first, with numb eyes and a forced smile.
The third Jade Slip held the image of a woman in her late twenties.
She had a beautiful face and a plump figure, exuding a sense of dignity and maturity that came with being a young married woman.
Although her eyes were not as numb as the first two, it was clear to see that she was somewhat reluctant.
After viewing the Jade Slips of these three maids, Lu Changsheng furrowed his brows and picked up the fourth Jade Slip.
Compared to the previous three women, this one seemed quite normal.
In her twenties, with a beautiful and lovely face, dressed in a purple dress, she had a very sweet smile with two shallow dimples.
Lu Changsheng picked up the fifth Jade Slip to inspect.
It was an image of a cute-looking girl with a petite but exquisitely proportioned figure.
To Lu Changsheng’s surprise, this girl actually had a pair of fluffy fox ears on her head and a fluffy fox tail behind her—not seeming decorative, but rather inborn.
“Is this girl of the Demon Race, or perhaps a half-demon?”
Lu Changsheng felt a bit of surprise upon seeing the fox-tailed girl in the Jade Slip.
Having read many books, he knew that some Demon Beasts, upon breaking through to a certain Realm, could refine their vertebrae and undergo transformation.
Great Demons that transformed could mate with the Human Race, and although it was hard for them to bear offspring, there was still a chance of producing children.
Such offspring, although human in shape, would retain some traits of the Demon Beast.
He put down the Jade Slip and turned to Feng Jiuniang, “Manager Feng, the girl in this Jade Slip, is she of the Demon Race?”
“Correct, this girl is a half-demon with a Cultivation Level of Seventh Level Energy Refinement. She not only possesses a Sixth Grade Spiritual Root but also the high-rank bloodline of the Golden Pupiled White Fox,” Feng Jiuniang replied.
“Although this girl is willing to become a concubine, her requirements are relatively higher. She not only has preferences regarding her partner’s appearance and age but also demands forty-eight Middle Grade Spirit Stones as a betrothal gift,” she added.
“However, with Mr. Han’s appearance, I’m sure any young girl would be pleased,” Feng Jiuniang said with a smile, her charming eyes gazing at Lu Changsheng as if looking at a lover.
“She has requirements regarding age and appearance, and also asks for forty-eight Middle Grade Spirit Stones as a betrothal gift?”
Upon hearing this, Lu Changsheng was at a loss for words for a moment.
Spirit Stones are categorized as: Lower Grade Spirit Stone, Middle Grade Spirit Stone, Superior Grade Spirit Stone, Supreme Spirit Stone.
The Spirit Stones he usually used were all Lower Grade Spirit Stones.
Forty-eight Middle Grade Spirit Stones would be equivalent to four thousand eight hundred Lower Grade Spirit Stones.
He had just thought this beast-eared girl seemed quite nice.
But upon hearing the price, he instantly backed out.
And this was only the betrothal gift for taking a concubine; it didn’t include future expenses and the mediation fee for the White Jade Tower.
“What about this one?”
Lu Changsheng pointed at the Jade Slip of another purple-dressed woman and asked.
“This woman has a Cultivation Level of Sixth Level Energy Refinement, a Seventh Grade Spiritual Root, and has no specific demands for a partner. Only nineteen Middle Grade Spirit Stones are required for her betrothal gift,” responded Feng Jiuniang.
Seeing Lu Changsheng’s frown deepen, Feng Jiuniang’s red lips parted slightly as she spoke, “Mr. Han, it is rare to find a woman with a Spiritual Root willing to be a servant, and they have always been in short supply.
“The requirements of these two women are not that high, and it’s possible someone might take an interest in them in a few days.”
“If Mr. Han finds them too expensive, you might consider these three maids,” she continued.
“These three seem somewhat reluctant,” Lu Changsheng said tactfully.
“Mr. Han, you can rest assured on this count. All three have come to our White Jade Tower due to various reasons, and buying them as maids from us will absolutely not result in any karmic consequences for Mr. Han.
“We at the White Jade Tower conduct long-term business, priding ourselves on our reputation. Any maid purchased from our White Jade Tower comes with a three-year after-sales guarantee.
“If any issue or trouble arises with a maid bought from our White Jade Tower within three years, we will take responsibility for addressing the matter and provide a satisfactory solution to the client,” Feng Jiuniang said, lifting her teacup for a sip, lips curled in a seductive smile, her voice confident.
Hearing this, Lu Changsheng nodded slightly.
If she dared to make such a promise, it probably wasn’t a significant issue.
However, he still felt that such maids were not very reliable.
He couldn’t help but ask, “Doesn’t the White Jade Tower have any maids with Spiritual Roots who have been nurtured from a young age?”
He was almost certain that this White Jade Tower was the same one where Hong Yi had bought Jiu’er and Shui’er.
He remembered Hong Yi mentioning that the two girls were orphans raised by the White Jade Tower from a young age.

“It seems Mr. Han is also somewhat informed about our White Jade Tower.”
“Indeed, our White Jade Tower does rear its own young maids, but those with Spiritual Roots are always in high demand.
“They are pre-booked each year and bought up quickly. If Mr. Han wishes to purchase such maids, he would need to make a reservation in advance,” Feng Jiuniang said with a light laugh.
Hearing this, Lu Changsheng felt somewhat disappointed.
He had initially hoped to buy a few maids or pets like Jiu’er and Shui’er, who possessed Spiritual Roots.
