Leon is his name in his first life and in this world, it's Li Ye.

After walking for some time, they returned to the Li clan.

"First, get them cleaned up, then give them some good clothes and food." Li Ye said to the servants.

"Bring her to my room after she is done eating." He said, pointing his hand towards Yanmei.

The servants took them opposite of Li Ye. He then went to his room.

"Sara, show her detailed description."

[She is the reincarnation of the Flame Empress. She was the ruler of one of the upper realms. When she was ascending to the immortal realm, she was betrayed by her loyal people and got killed. But she reincarnated in the lower realm as Yanmei.]

"If she is the reincarnation of the Flame Empress, then I should earn her trust so she can help conquer this world," Leon said.

"Do you really need to make her your maid?" Aria pouted.

"I am just taking her as a maid to help her grow faster."

Just then, they heard a voice. "May I come in?"

"Yes."

"Master, you need me for something?" Yanmei asked.

"I will give you two choices."

10 minutes ago;

'I was known as the Flame Empress in the upper realm. When I was ascending to the immortal realm, the royal family and the 3 immortal clans betrayed me, but because I reached half-step immortal realm before dying, my soul was powerful enough to reincarnate with my memories intact. When I reach the upper realm, I will kill everyone who betrayed me.' Flames were burning in her eyes as she would get her revenge no matter the cost.

'But now I reincarnated in a body that can't cultivate. I need some heavenly treasure to make this body suitable for cultivation.'

She then thought about Li Ye, who bought her with all the other children.

'He is the young master of the Li clan. He's also the head of the Li clan. But he called for me in his room. Does he want my body?' Yanmei thought.

'No, he could have not guessed my beauty as I am thin like a stick. Also, he can get many beautiful women if he wants' She was pondering about Li Ye's behaviour.

'If he makes a move on me, I can't do anything because I lost all my cultivation. I hope he's not some lecher.' She came before Li Ye's room.

She asked. "May I come in?"

At present;

"So master you want me to be your maid and follow all your orders or I can leave the Li clan immediately?"

"Yes, if you become my maid, I will help you cultivate, but you can't disobey any of my orders, or you can leave right away. No one will stop you." Li Ye spoke.

'What should I do? If I became his maid, he could do anything he wanted with me, but he would help me in cultivation. He is the head of the Li clan, so I can get better pills for increasing my cultivation.'

'Hmmm.... I guess I have no choice but to become his maid to quicken my revenge. After I become powerful, I will flee from here.' She thought.

"Master, I agree to become your maid, but you must help me become a strong cultivator quickly." She spoke.

"Are you sure?" Li Ye asked.

She replied, "Yes master."

"First introduce yourself."

"Master, my name is Yanmei and I am an orphan. I was caught by the merchant and sold to you." She introduced.

"Master, I want to tell you that I can't cultivate."

"Why?"

"My meridians are all blocked. I need some heavenly treasure to reopen them." Yanmei replied.

'Sara, how can reopen her meridians again?'

[Master can buy something from the shop or can give her the Immortal Emperor Constitution, which will reopen her meridians]

'Sara, how can I transfer the Immortal Emperor Constitution to her'

[Master needs to put his hand above her head]

He then placed his hand above her head.

"Master what are you doing -" She felt her meridians were opening one by one.

After reopening all her meridians, Li Ye spoke.

Yanmei was shocked to see that all her meridians had opened. She also felt her body change.

"Master, what did you give me?"

"I gave you the Immortal Emperor Constitution"

She stared at Li Ye for some time until he spoke again.

"When I was exploring a cave in the forest, I stumbled across a small world in the cave. An immortal had created the small world to test people to find a suitable successor for his legacy.

Somehow, I passed his test and got his legacy."

"I also got this manual from the legacy." Li Ye said.

He handed her the Immortal Qi Breathing manual.

Yanmei opened the manual and saw that by practicing this method one can cultivate through regular breathing. So one can cultivate 24/7 even while sleeping.

After reading the manual and feeling the changes in her body she felt confused. Why would Li Ye give her something so precious that can even make the upper world crazy just because she became his maid?

"Master, why are you giving this legacy to me instead of using it yourself?"

"I just want to live my life peacefully and I am head of the Li clan so I can just live the rest of my life in luxury." Li Ye replied.

She can't understand why would he want to live like a mortal.

"I know that you have been betrayed and you want revenge against them but can't because you don't have the power to do so." He spoke.

"How did you know"

'Does he know that I am the Flame Empress and I reincarnated? No how can someone in the mortal realm know about it.' She thought.

"Your eyes, I can see that you have a burning desire for revenge. But as to why you haven't told me about your revenge is because the Li clan isn't powerful enough or you don't trust me. I think it's the formal because you become my maid even with my conditions."

"But why are you helping someone you don't even know about? What if I betrayed you."

"I don't think you will betray me as for why I am helping you let me tell you something." He spoke.

In a garden full of beautiful flowers, a gardener takes care of every flower but there was a flower that caught his eye. It was not too beautiful nor ugly but even though there were many beautiful flowers around it would still catch people's eyes because of 1 crimson colour. It symbolizes that even if you lost everything, you still haven't lost your will. To the gardener, it was one of the many beautiful flowers in his garden.

"To me, you are that beautiful flower. You got betrayed by your loved one but you still haven't fallen into despair. You even agreed to my conditions just so you fulfil your wish."

"You are one of the most beautiful women I have ever seen. If I can make you mine for just a mere immortal legacy, as a man how can I miss this opportunity." Li Ye said to Yanmei.

Her mind stopped working upon hearing Li Ye's words.

"The servants will show you to your room. You go to your room and practice the manual. Come to my room at midnight I have something to talk to you about."

"I- Yes master"

She bowed her head and left the room.
