Chapter 298 - Jia Renjie's Desire Was like a God

In no time at all, Jia Renjie had changed his clothes and hurried to Jiang Hao's side.

“Sorry for making Mr. Jiang wait, Renjie apologizes!”

Jiang Hao was quite pleased with Jia Renjie's demeanor.

There's a saying: Don't employ those you don't trust, and trust those you employ.

This is the true art of leadership!

Observing Jia Renjie's genuine loyalty, Jiang Hao suddenly spoke up.

“Little Jie!”

“Do you long for power?”

Jiang Hao's enigmatic question left everyone bewildered.

As they stared in confusion, Jiang Hao forcefully stamped his foot!

“Crack ~!”

A tremor followed, and the Jia mother and son watched in astonishment as the ground beneath Jiang Hao's feet gave way.

Beneath him, the road, paved with fifteen-centimeter-thick marble, now bore a massive crater.

The thick marble slab had shattered, spiderwebbing outwards for a meter around Jiang Hao.

Could this be the work of mere human strength?

In that moment, they regarded Jiang Hao with a mix of awe and reverence.

“This is the kind of power I'm talking about!”

“Do you crave it?”

Jiang Hao posed the question once more.

Hearing this, Jia Renjie's throat went dry, and a surge of restlessness took hold of him.

Wasn't this the very power that Shadow had once wielded?

Yet the power Shadow had shown was but a fraction of what Jiang Hao had just revealed!

Despite that, he had always yearned for it.

But Shadow had told him that becoming a martial cultivator required innate talent, which he lacked!

That had been a source of great disappointment for him.

But now, Jiang Hao was bringing it up again. In this moment, as he looked at Jiang Hao, his heart was fraught with turmoil.

“Mr. Jiang, Little Jie hungers for power!”

“However, Ying once told me I don't have the talent needed to become a martial cultivator!”

Jiang Hao regarded Jia Renjie with a knowing smile.

“He may not be able, but I am!”

“I can turn you into a martial cultivator!”

Upon hearing this, Jia Renjie was overcome with ecstatic joy and immediately knelt before Jiang Hao.

“Little Jie yearns for power and begs Mr. Jiang to grant his wish!”

From the moment Jia Renjie learned of the existence of martial cultivators from Ying, he knew a new era was on the horizon.

And the martial cultivator would be the protagonist of this dawning age.

Without becoming a martial cultivator, one would inevitably be left behind.

Thus, his desire for power was insatiable!

Now, with opportunity knocking, there was no way he would let it slip by.

For a martial cultivator like Jiang Hao, already strides ahead of the rest, he was destined to dominate in the times to come.

Aligning with them was undoubtedly the smart move.

It was then that Jia Renjie truly surrendered himself to the new order!

Seeing Jia Renjie's complete submission, Jiang Hao wasted no time.

He reached into his pocket, which seemed to hold endless treasures, and produced a small jade bottle, tipping out a pill.

This was the very same incomplete Mortal Pill that he'd extracted from the remnants Jia Renjie had acquired from the shadow.

Observing Jia Renjie's longing gaze, Jiang Hao elucidated.

“This is a Martial Cultivator Pill. Ingest one, and you'll transform into a martial cultivator!”

“There are various grades of the Martial Cultivator Pill, and this one is of the lowest tier!”

“Yet, even at this level, once you take it, your strength will rival that of the shadow you spoke of, making you a low-tier martial cultivator!”

“I'm gifting this one to you today!”

“If you serve me well, I won't hesitate to provide you with higher-tier Martial Cultivator Pills in the future!”

Overcome with elation at Jiang Hao's words, Jia Renjie eagerly vowed his loyalty.

“Mr. Jiang, you have my word—I'll serve you with unwavering dedication!”

Jiang Hao nodded in response and handed over the pill to Jia Renjie.

“Very well, stand and give it a try!”

With a look of sheer excitement, Jia Renjie accepted the pill and swallowed it amidst the envious gazes of Mother Jia and Jia Renyi.
