2527 A Young Man’s Ambition!
At that moment, the Spirit Mother’s aura hardened. Bu Po could see the Spirit Mother’s unshakable resolution for the first time.
The Spirit Mother’s aura caused Mountain Ridge Source to go on high alert. If the Spirit Mother decided to strike, Mountain Ridge Source could step in immediately to protect Bu Po and his sister.
The Spirit Mother spoke while punctuating each word solemnly. “If you have what it takes, I’m willing to pass on the Spirit Mother Federation’s Class 5 Creation Master legacy to you before I die!”
Bu Po had made many guesses before he met with the Spirit Mother. He believed that the probability of a negative outcome was higher than a positive outcome.
After all, despite having support, he was still a young boy and did not have much speaking authority when facing the Spirit Mother.
Yet, communicating with the Spirit Mother had gone so smoothly!
The Spirit Mother’s words hit Bu Po hard.
“If you become the Spirit Mother, you can use your own means to change the Spirit Mother Federation.”
Bu Po had come from nothing and spent the early part of his life among others who were just as lowly. He understood just how difficult life was for regular people in the Spirit Mother Federation and badly wanted to change this.
The Spirit Mother’s words let Bu Po know that the Spirit Mother would not stand in his way if he tried to change this part of society after becoming the Spirit Mother.
As for the issue of the Spirit Mother Federation’s profits, Bu Po had already discussed this in detail with Lin Yuan.
Bu Po could be certain that Lin Yuan was completely uninterested in the Spirit Mother Federation.
It was just like how Lin Yuan had not forcefully overtaken Luo Lan’s Iron Hammer Federation and supported it instead.
Once Bu Po became the ruler of the Spirit Mother Federation, Lin Yuan would support the Spirit Mother Federation in the same way.
The Spirit Mother saw the Spirit Mother Federation as a piece of fatty meat, but it could not even catch the eye of Lin Yuan.
Knowing this, Bu Po said seriously, “I can give you my word with regard to what you just said. The person behind me will never harm the Spirit Mother Federation’s profits. But once I become the Spirit Mother, I will develop it the way that I think is right. That should be my right as the Spirit Mother.”
The Spirit Mother regarded Bu Po as someone with experience and who had walked the same path. He did not say another but only smiled.
“Your idea is good. I hope you’ll be able to carry it out when you become the Spirit Mother. However, now is not the time for you to think about this matter. Young people sure do like to oversimplify everything when they analyze problems!”
The Spirit Mother did not give Bu Po the chance to cut in and pushed the pleasant-looking and mouth-watering plate of fruits to Bu Po and his sister.
His voice became soft before saying, “Have a taste. These fruits are good for your body. From today onward, I will allocate 1/3 of my bedchamber’s space for you to live in. You can enter and exit at will.
“When you leave, I will give you a staff that is half the length of mine. I will spend six hours teaching you daily if you need my guidance. Do not enter my living space unless necessary or make any disruptive noises that will bother me!”
Bu Po looked shocked when he heard what the Spirit Mother said.
What? The Spirit Mother was going to allocate 1/3 of this heavenly space for him to live in? It would take him at least 20 to 30 minutes to walk through 1/3 of this space!
Bu Po was at a sudden loss about whether he should accept the Spirit Mother’s gift.
The Spirit Mother could not help but smile when he saw the astonishment on Bu Po’s face. At that moment, he seemed like the 17-year-old boy that he actually was.
“You don’t have to be burdened by this. I have indeed added many things in this space out of interest. However, it was not created by me. I also spent a lot of time here when I was a reserve disciple.”
The Spirit Mother stood up and serenely looked at Bu Po’s face before saying, “There is a rule when one becomes a Spirit Mother. We have to let our hair grow out. This is why every Spirit Mother’s hair reaches his waist despite being men.
“You have a decent appearance, and your features can be considered refreshing. Once your bone structure sets, you will look as fine as can be with long hair. You don’t need me to watch over you when you grow out your hair. You’ll be able to handle it on your own.”
The Spirit Mother casually touched Bu Po’s face before waving his hand.
A moon-shaped item fell out from the Spirit Mother’s sleeve and flew toward a gong tree’s fruit in the distance.
The gong let out a thunderous ring. The sound was not jarring to the ear but could travel far.
The four personal attendants, who were deep in discussion, rushed into the Spirit Mother’s bedchamber when they heard the ring.
This was how the Spirit Mother summoned his personal attendants.
The four personal attendants were very curious about the contents of the Spirit Mother and Bu Po’s conversation.
The Spirit Mother had never cared about Bu Po in the past, even when he had passed his nine tests.
So why was he suddenly acting so friendly toward Bu Po? This did not make any sense!
The Spirit Mother had called for Bu Po, but the latter had brought his sister with him. Given the Spirit Mother’s temper, he should be furious with Bu Po.
Could it be that the Spirit Mother had killed Bu Po and his sister, and the four of them were going to clean up the bodies now?
If the Spirit Mother had really done so, none of the Sky Mother families would disagree with him. Rather, they would be more than happy if the Spirit Mother was willing to choose another successor.
If the two Sky Mother families had not cheated during the nine tests and were killed for it, many Sky Mother families would already be trying to assassinate Bu Po.
The Spirit Mother Federation’s selection of the Spirit Mother’s successor was largely related to connections. Without connections, how could the other Sky Mother families acknowledge him?
This was why the four Spirit Mother personal assistants were not as respectful of Bu Po as they were supposed to be.
However, the reality was not as the three of them had imagined. Not only had the Spirit Mother not made things difficult for Bu Po but had even allowed him to enter his bedchamber.
In the past, the reserve disciples who passed the nine tests would be closely observed and tested by the Spirit Mother. They would only be invited into the Spirit Mother’s bedchamber once they met all of his expectations.
Rather than say that Bu Po had received an honor, it would be more appropriate to say that he had received a reward and the position of the next Spirit Mother.
This piece of news would definitely shake up all the Sky Mother families when they heard of it.
Normally, the four personal attendants would kneel and bow eight times to the Spirit Mother after being summoned. But this time, after their eighth bow, they instinctively bowed thrice to Bu Po as well.
