309: Chapter 309 If they come to me willingly, then let's make a contract.
Feng Yange took a few steps back with a look of disgust on her face and looked up at the sky.
"Revered Master, are we not picking up this man?"
Dengdeng had the same look of disgust. Feng Yange glanced at Dengdeng and said, "Didn't you see my biological father telling me that this man cannot be picked up?"
"Revered Master, who is your biological father?"
"The Heavenly Dao, of course. Didn't you see that as soon as he reached out his hand, my biological father struck him with lightning? It was clearly saying: 'Stay away from my daughter.'"
After Feng Yange finished speaking, Dengdeng looked puzzled and glanced up at the sky. The Heavenly Dao didn't say that, did it?
"Look at him. He looks decent enough, yet he got struck by lightning. What does that show? Bad character."
"Revered Master, that actually makes a lot of sense."
Feng Yange curled her lips in satisfaction. "Of course. Anyway, he doesn't look like a good person."
How could a man with a top-tier Immortal Bone, an Innate Sword Body, and a Pure Yang Body appear in this world, and even deliver himself right to her door?
"System, is he a human or a beast?"
Feng Yange leaned closer, the disgust in her eyes not fading in the slightest, as an evil idea arose in her mind.
[Host, he is a beast, though this System cannot view his true form. Host, he is top-tier stock; it is recommended that the Host take him as a husband.]
"System, as long as I subdue him, will I get a reward?"
[Yes, Host.]
Feng Yange walked over to the man and squatted down. "Since he is a beast, I will reluctantly take him in."
"Are you willing to become my contracted beast?"
A drop of blood fell onto the man's forehead, and a contract seal formed. It was a master-servant contract. Dengdeng took a step back upon seeing this, her eyes filled with dread.
"Revered Master, you contracted him?"
Feng Yange nodded and clapped her hands solemnly. "I asked him, and his silence meant consent. I didn't force him."
This person, she could tell just by looking at him, was not a good sort.
If he could get struck by lightning, what kind of decent person could he be?
Dengdeng suddenly felt that her Revered Master had been truly gentle with her in the past. Her Revered Master had even called her "baby." But for this guy, her Revered Master just assumed consent and contracted him directly, and it was even an inescapable master-servant contract.
[Host, I thought you would take him as a husband.]
"System, he got struck by lightning, so I don't think he's a good person. If he turns out to be a hidden danger, wouldn't that be risky? Besides, don't you find it strange? Why would someone with an Innate Sword Body, a top-tier Immortal Bone, and a Pure Yang Body run all the way to me?"
This stack of buffs reminded her of someone.
Jun Chen's Revered Master—didn't he descend to the Lower Realm?
What if the man in front of her was his Revered Master?
With such a great opportunity, she had to grasp his lifeline first. If he wasn't, she could always consider changing the master-servant contract to an equal contract.
Better to capture the wrong person than to let them slip away.
[The host makes a good point. Contract with top-tier beast completed. System reward is being distributed. Please check and receive it, Host.]
Feng Yange was very satisfied. Her System was indeed very reasonable.
Only then did Feng Yange step forward to check his injuries. They were actually severe wounds from heavenly lightning, very similar to the injuries Jun Chen had suffered back then. However, he was only unconscious and wouldn't die.
Feng Yange dripped a drop of spirit spring water on him and ignored him after that. Since he had become her contracted beast, his life was now in her hands.
"Dengdeng, did you find the frost flower?"
Feng Yange snapped out of it and asked quickly. Dengdeng finally reacted and hurriedly handed the storage ring to Feng Yange. "Revered Master, I only managed to harvest a few frost flowers. Fortunately, the storage ring you gave me has a time-stop function, otherwise I definitely wouldn't have succeeded."
Feng Yange examined the storage ring. The pure Purification Power made her suddenly pull her hand back. There were actually three frost flowers.
"Dengdeng, you weren't injured on this trip, right?"
Feng Yange pulled Dengdeng over to check her carefully. Seeing her shake her head, Feng Yange finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Revered Master, I'm fine. Just remember to help me find some Heavenly Flames to keep me company."
"Alright, I'll help you look for them. You can go play in the space now."
Just as Dengdeng left, Dark Spirit returned. He squatted on Feng Yange's shoulder, panting. "Revered Master, there really is lingxu grass on that cliff you mentioned, but there's a powerful Yao Beast guarding it. I didn't dare to go over."
"Is there a lot of lingxu grass? And how strong is that Yao Beast?"
"It should be in the Spirit Saint Realm. I saw the lingxu grass; there's a huge patch of it."
"A huge patch of lingxu grass?"
Feng Yange was shocked. This was only the fourth floor of the Great Secret Realm, and it was already this rich?
"Revered Master, that Yao Beast's strength might even be at the Spirit God Realm. I didn't dare to get close." Dark Spirit lay exhausted on Feng Yange's shoulder, but his eyes accidentally caught sight of the man lying on the ground.
"Revered Master, did you pick up another man?"
"He delivered himself right to my door. The System said he has a top-tier Immortal Bone. I thought he looked decent, so I contracted him." Just as Feng Yange finished speaking, she heard Dark Spirit point at the man in the distance. "He's awake."
Only then did Feng Yange notice that the man who had been struck by lightning at her door had woken up. His first reaction was to glare at her with eyes full of killing intent, but in the next second, he clutched his forehead in panic and stared at Feng Yange in disbelief.
"You... you contracted me?"
And it's a damn master-servant contract!
Feng Yange stared at him. This guy wanted to kill her the moment he opened his eyes; he truly was not a good sort.
"I asked you, and you agreed!"
"Nonsense! How could I possibly agree to sign a master-servant contract with you? Do you know who I am?"
Feng Yange's eyes lit up. He actually hadn't lost his memory! But how did he pass out?
"You are my contracted beast now. What, do you still want to resist?"
With the master-servant contract, she could take his life at any moment.
"Hurry up and dissolve this master-servant contract, otherwise..."
"Otherwise what?" Feng Yange ignored his cold gaze. "If you have the ability, try killing me and see who dies first."
Seeing that Feng Yange did not fear him, a trace of malice flashed in the man's eyes, but he quickly concealed it.
"You don't even know who I am, yet you contracted me just like that. This is truly going too far." He forced himself to hold up. He hadn't expected that after descending to the Lower Realm, he would actually be struck unconscious by lightning.
However, he could not reveal his identity right now.
"I asked for your opinion, and your silence was consent. I only did it to save your life back then; otherwise, I wouldn't even have wanted to contract you." Feng Yange's disdainful words almost choked him with anger.
"I am not one of those beastmen. You cannot contract me."
He still couldn't believe it. He had only fainted for a moment, and yet he was forcibly contracted like this, and it was even the lowest-grade master-servant contract. If word of this got out, what would happen to his reputation?
"Oh."
Feng Yange glanced at him. "Then why didn't you refuse when I asked you? You wanted me to save you, yet you didn't want to be my contracted beast. I really couldn't tell that you were the type who wants to have his cake and eat it too."
"How is an unconscious person supposed to answer you?"
This ant was so arrogant, yet unfortunately, he had now become her lowest-grade contracted beast.
"Who else can you blame? Did I make you faint in front of me? Did I make you reach out to me?" Feng Yange's eyes were full of warning. "What? Now that I've saved your life, you want to rebel and kill your Revered Master?"
