Chapter 765 A Plan That Benefits Everyone! (Please Subscribe and Vote for Monthly Tickets)
Upon hearing this, Lortherma's face flashed with a hint of melancholy and longing. He sighed, "Indeed, the realm of a Saint is no easy feat. That barrier is like an insurmountable chasm, trapping and killing countless brilliant talents."

A sly glint flashed in Seratis's eyes as she lowered her voice and said, "To be honest, Chieftain, I have been serving His Majesty recently and have occasionally heard him mention that there seemed to be some special medicines or methods in ancient times that could help people comprehend the world and increase their chances of breaking through to the Saint Realm. However, due to the great age of those times, I don't know if they still exist."

These words exploded in Lor'themar's ears like a thunderclap!

He grabbed Seratis's hand tightly, his voice trembling with excitement: "Really?! His Majesty really mentioned it?! Seratis, my good child! You must help me, the clan leader! If we can truly obtain His Majesty's favor and help me break through, you will be the greatest benefactor of Lor'themar, and the entire Windwhisperer clan! You will be free to use the clan's resources in the future!"

Seeing the usually dignified clan chief so distraught and pleading with her, Seratis sneered inwardly, but put on a troubled expression: "Clan chief, as you know, His Majesty is of a detached nature and dislikes being bothered by worldly affairs. I can only try to find an opportunity to subtly inquire, but whether it will succeed or not, I really cannot guarantee."

“I understand! I understand! In any case, Chieftain, I will remember this kindness!” Lortherma nodded repeatedly, his eyes filled with anticipation.

Seratis knew that the plan was half successful.

She then found Li Chen and revealed everything about Losema's desires and her plans.

Li Chen was naturally pleased with this, and casually took some medicinal herbs from the stock he had brought with him in the Witch Ancestor Cave Heaven. These herbs could strengthen the body and calm the mind, but were not actually of any use in breaking through to the Saint Realm. He asked Seratis to give them to Lortherma and told him to "go into seclusion and meditate, and carefully comprehend the truth. Only Saints should not leave."

Upon receiving these "divine medicines" exuding ancient aura and the "personal guidance" from His Majesty, Lortherma was so moved that tears streamed down his face, and he kowtowed more than a dozen times in the direction of the temple where Li Chen resided.

He immediately entrusted all family affairs to several elders, but in reality, Seratis had already secretly taken control of most of them. Then, she couldn't wait to enter the family's most secret secluded training ground, vowing never to leave until she broke through to the Saint realm.

As Seratis watched the stone door of the secluded chamber slowly close, a victorious smile appeared on her lips.

The clan leader's seclusion will last from three to five years to more than ten years. During this time, with her current prestige and methods, plus Li Chen's tacit approval, she will become the de facto ruler of the Wind Whisperer Clan.

By then, wouldn't she be able to "arrange" all the beauties treasured in the clan chief's private residence? Her "grand plan to present beauties" could finally be implemented smoothly.

Even if Seratis hadn't said anything, Li Chen, with his keen eyesight, would have already seen through her little scheme.

However, this plan was entirely beneficial to him.

He could enjoy being surrounded by beautiful women and have Seratis willingly manage the family affairs for him, while he himself could have a peaceful life. Why not?
During this period of leisure and boredom, Seratis experienced the elaborate "offerings" made by the Wind Whisperer family, and in doing so, she gained the power and cultivation resources she had always dreamed of, which was a win-win situation.

The day after Chief Lorthema went into seclusion, Seratis, with Li Chen's tacit approval and her already established prestige, successfully obtained the token symbolizing the chief's authority.

Despite her young age, she has become a completely different person after experiencing the preparation of a grand celebration and being around Li Chen, where she deliberately imitated his detached demeanor.

She was no longer the family's genius girl who had to be mindful of others' feelings, but had transformed into a powerful figure with a cold demeanor, disdainful eyes, and an aloof and arrogant presence.

Of course, this aloofness was only revealed when Li Chen was not present.

The moment Li Chen appears, she immediately transforms back into that obedient, docile, and bright-eyed little follower.

At this moment, Seratis was sitting on the throne that originally belonged to Lor'themar, with a dozen or so half-elf women who had been specially summoned by her standing respectfully below her.

Among them were mature women who still retained their charm, and several young girls who, although young, had already developed exceptionally full and alluring figures.

Seratis knew Li Chen's preferences perfectly; these were the "best choices" she had carefully selected. Her cool gaze swept over the faces below—some apprehensive, some curious, some with hidden anticipation—and she spoke in an unquestionable tone: "Your Majesty's temporary stay in our clan is a supreme honor. We will do our utmost to serve you well, ensuring you feel as comfortable and warm as if you were at home."

She paused, then raised her voice slightly: "Your Majesty is currently lacking some attentive maids to manage your daily life and handle miscellaneous tasks. The reason I have summoned you all today is to ask who is willing to take on this important responsibility and serve Your Majesty?"

Many of these women were originally concubines secretly taken in by Chief Lorsemar.

The leader was named Melanie. She had deep purple curly hair and fair, snow-white skin. What was most striking was her extremely enviable figure, with a prominent bust and buttocks and exaggerated curves that seemed almost unreal.

She also had a gentle and shy oval face, with innocent eyes that carried a hint of timid charm, creating a strong sense of contrast.

Hearing that her husband was going into seclusion for several years, she felt lost and uncertain, knowing that without support within the family, life would be difficult. Now, hearing that there was an opportunity to serve the "Your Majesty," whom even the clan chief revered, she felt this might be the perfect chance to find a new patron.

So she was the first to timidly raise her head and softly reply, "I am willing to go and serve Your Majesty."

Seratis looked at Melanies's pitiful yet alluring appearance and secretly congratulated herself on choosing the right person. She didn't specify what special services the "maid" needed to provide, because she knew that with Li Chen's personality, the process of "discovering" and "conquering" him would be much more fun.

Seeing that Melanie, who was usually the most favored by the chieftain and the most gentle and beautiful, had agreed, the other women also put aside their doubts and rushed to express their willingness.

"I do too!"

"It is my honor to serve Your Majesty!"

"Please make the arrangements, Miss Seratis!"

Most of them probably genuinely thought they were just doing ordinary maid work, like serving tea and water and tidying up rooms.

However, a few astute individuals vaguely sensed something from Seratis's deliberate selection of these exceptionally beautiful women and her meaningful tone.

However, whether out of a yearning for power, a desire for protection, or simply being attracted by Li Chen's mysterious and powerful charm, none of them ultimately refused, each harboring their own different plans.

“Very good.” Seratis nodded in satisfaction. “In that case, everyone, please change into your uniform maid outfits. Someone will take you to His Majesty’s residence to await further instructions later.”

The women obeyed and withdrew to change their clothes.

At this moment, a half-elf girl, equally young, with long, fiery red hair and a particularly voluptuous and shapely figure, quietly approached Seratis.

She is Seratis's best friend, named Lylana.

Lylana tugged at Seratis's sleeve, lowered her voice, and asked with a hint of curiosity and eagerness, "Seratis, my good sister, tell me quickly, what does His Majesty usually like? Does he have any special hobbies?"

She clearly grasped the situation faster than the others, realizing that this "maid's" identity was not simple, and wanted to prepare in advance to gain the upper hand.
