Change This World Full of Vermin

No way? Speak of Cao Cao, and Cao Cao arrives.

Just then, Su Ming's gaze swept over instinctively, and he spotted a pitiable-looking blonde girl.

The girl was one or two years older than him. Though her childishness had yet to fade, it was already clear that she would grow into a stunning beauty.

Her skin was fair as snow, her features delicate, and her soft golden hair draped over her shoulders, making her exceptionally eye-catching.

"Boss, could you give me a few more days? Let me take the medicine home first. Once I receive next month's soul master allowance, I'll pay you back immediately."

"I'm a student at Xuanyuan Junior Soul Master Academy..."

The girl pleaded bitterly.

The pharmacy owner replied with a troubled expression,

"Honored Soul Master, I'm only an employee. The owner's rule is cash and goods must be settled on the spot."

Listening to their conversation, Su Ming was somewhat speechless. Well then, it really is Jiang Nannan.

He then walked over.

Su Ming's arrival naturally drew the attention of both Jiang Nannan and the pharmacy owner.

He immediately said, "Boss, I'll pay for this sister."

"Little brother, thank you for your kindness, but I really can't accept this. Where are your parents..." Jiang Nannan said somewhat incoherently.

The medicinal ingredients she was buying were rather expensive.

Having a child even younger than herself pay for her left Jiang Nannan at a loss.

Thinking that Su Ming had gotten separated from his family, she could only keep trying to help him find his parents.

"It's fine, Sister. It's just a little money." As he spoke, Su Ming took out a black-gold card from his storage soul tool. "Besides, I heard what happened. Helping someone in an emergency is only right."

Seeing this, the knowledgeable pharmacy owner hurriedly accepted the black-gold card respectfully with both hands. "Young master, please wait a moment. I'll prepare the medicinal ingredients for you right away."

"Thank you, little brother. What's your name? Once Sister has money in the future, I'll definitely repay you double." Jiang Nannan looked at Su Ming with immense gratitude.

At that moment, she was extremely grateful to Su Ming. If he had not paid for her, she truly would not have known what else to do.

The commoner geniuses of this Douluo Continent era really have it rough. Su Ming sighed inwardly as he looked at the pitiful Jiang Nannan.

Although soul master allowances still existed in this era,

the difficulty of becoming a soul master had increased greatly. There were even commoners who did not know what a martial soul was.

Moreover, for soul masters to have decent personal development, they practically had to bind themselves tightly to a faction.

Otherwise, there was simply no way forward.

It could only be said that the existence of Wuhun Hall ten thousand years ago had brought some benefits.

Year after year, it helped commoners awaken their martial souls and forced the two great empires to distribute the corresponding soul master allowances.

And with Wuhun Hall's name hanging over them, other factions did not dare exploit people too excessively.

After Wuhun Hall was gone, everything besides the allowances disappeared.

Soul masters born into commoner families suddenly found life difficult once more.

Even a genius like Jiang Nannan, with innate soul power at Rank Eight, had been driven to sell herself.

Although the Xuanming Sect had deliberately set Jiang Nannan up in this matter, it was still outrageous enough.

This situation has to change. Su Ming sighed softly to himself.

Since he was here, he would certainly change it.

It was not that Su Ming was especially saintly; he simply understood sustainable development better than those vermin.

After ten thousand years of development, the entire Douluo Continent was still like a feudal society, with no path upward at all.

If a commoner genius wanted to rise, fine—sell yourself to some great faction.

Otherwise, why would they nurture you?

After ten thousand years of development, who knows how many talents have been completely buried.

Su Ming's future goal was to create his own Godhood and become a true Creator God step by step.

Such ambition would inevitably place Su Ming in opposition to the current God Realm.

After all, those so-called gods of the God Realm would absolutely never allow a new God Realm to emerge.

Thus, Su Ming had the foresight to know that he needed to begin making gradual plans from the very start and cultivate his own forces.

And the world he was currently in—Douluo Continent—was the main base Su Ming had set his sights on.

He would turn Douluo Continent into his own, then devour other planes, and finally counterattack the God Realm.

Therefore, under these circumstances, Su Ming would definitely unite the entire Douluo Continent in the future and make it develop better and better.

After all, the more geniuses there were, the more god-level powerhouses there would be in the future. That would make Su Ming's forces stronger and give him greater confidence when facing the God Realm.

Jiang Nannan's talent is decent too. Most importantly, taking her in will be extremely easy. Su Ming assessed Jiang Nannan without revealing anything.

Naturally, he had helped Jiang Nannan because he had taken an interest in her.

Innate Rank Eight soul power, not particularly skilled in combat, and overly kind-hearted.

Even though she would become one of the Shrek Seven Monsters in the future and later a Title Douluo, she would only be benefiting from the people around her.

But Jiang Nannan's value for the cost was high enough that her few shortcomings could be completely overlooked.

She came from a commoner family. Save her mother, and Jiang Nannan could be successfully won over.

Especially since Xu Sanshi had probably not yet seen Jiang Nannan and fallen in love with her at first sight.

That meant the Xuanming Sect had naturally not set its sights on Jiang Nannan yet.

In other words, Su Ming would face virtually no resistance in recruiting Jiang Nannan.

After winning her over, taking her away from Xuanyuan City, and slowly nurturing their relationship, Su Ming could naturally bring her into his harem.

For now, however, Su Ming certainly could not tell Jiang Nannan his thoughts directly.

That would be far too blunt.

His thoughts raced. After settling on a plan, Su Ming finally said, "Sister, may I ask what I should call you?"

"My name is Jiang Nannan. I'm a third-year student at Xuanyuan Junior Soul Master Academy." Hearing Su Ming's question, Jiang Nannan quickly introduced herself.

"It's like this, Sister Nannan." Su Ming said innocently, "My name is Su Ming. I accidentally overheard what happened to you just now, so I sympathize with you."

"Also, my family happens to be recruiting talented soul masters lately, which is why I took the initiative to help you."

"If you want to save your mother and improve your family's circumstances, Sister Nannan, you can try applying at my family's place."

"If you pass, then your mother can be saved, and you'll be able to cultivate without worry as well."

Su Ming spoke very directly. After all, talent was indeed something every major faction coveted.

And compared with saying that he had taken a fancy to Jiang Nannan or wanted to take her as a maid, such words would make it easier to earn her trust.

"Little Brother Su Ming, may I ask about your family's sect?" As if she had grasped a lifeline, hope flashed through Jiang Nannan's eyes.

Without a doubt, Su Ming's words had completely moved Jiang Nannan.
