Chapter 95 - 84. The master’s word is absolute

"My Princess, do you recognize this Prince?" The Prince, clad in an expensive deep red tailcoat, stood with his hands clasped behind his back in front of the woman, lips curved in what he thought was a charming, playful smile. Yue Hongli’s gaze shifted back, blinking, and after a moment of thought, she nodded, "I recognize you; your name is Liszt. According to the definitions in social anthropology, you are my husband." "Right." The Prince chuckled, but a question arose in his heart—after so long, why hadn’t he felt the slightest hint of recognition from her as her owner? "So, do you know where my master is?" the woman in the phoenix skirt asked, puzzled. The Prince: "?" "What—what?" His expression revealed a slight shock, as he had not grasped her meaning for a moment, "Am I not your master?" "A husband is a husband, a master is a master." Yue Hongli shook her head, and just then, a calm voice sounded from behind her, "I’m right here." Yue Hongli turned around. The Prince looked up and his lips curled slightly, "Kid, what are you doing making grand—" "Master~" The rose-colored pupils of Yue Hongli’s eyes lit up, and the symbol on her brow flashed momentarily. She immediately sensed the soul channel between her and Xia Feng. "Dream..." The Prince exhaled the last word, astonished by the scene before him. Just now... had the Princess called out ’master’? And was it directed at Xia Feng? "Impossible." "Absolutely impossible!" The Prince suppressed the fear in his heart, convinced there had been some mistake. As Xia Feng and Yue Hongli’s eyes met, a subtle connection formed between the black and red orbs, and information simultaneously appeared in both their minds. [*Contract Established*] [Guihua Catastrophe Contract] [Bond Recognition: Recognized] [Original Owner: Heng] [Second Owner: Xia Feng] [Divine Authority: Evil Power of Fortune (Sealed)] [Catastrophe Contract Form: Gui Blade] Yue Hongli blinked lightly and stepped towards Xia Feng. "What are you doing!" The Prince was dumbfounded, hastily reaching out to grab the woman in the phoenix skirt. But coincidentally, just as his palm was about to touch the woman’s arm, the control panel malfunctioned, releasing a sizzling chaotic current like electric snakes that lashed out straight onto his palm. "Ah!!" The Prince cried out in pain, quickly retracting his hand. The woman in the phoenix skirt continued her steady walk forward, coming to stand before Xia Feng, curious in her rose-colored gaze, "Are you my new master?" "...Sort of, yeah." Truth be told, Xia Feng felt quite uncomfortable being called master, especially since the Princess’s voice had a clear, mesmerizing allure that made his neck tingle with goosebumps. This was truly terrifying; for the first time, Xia Feng deeply understood the implications of the term ’seductress.’ "Have you gone mad!" The Prince’s lips trembled, his voice a mix of anger and indignation, "Yue Hongli! I am your master! What on earth are you doing!" Yue Hongli turned back, tilting her head in confusion, "Aren’t you my husband?" The Prince was livid, his voice chilly with suppressed rage: "You still acknowledge that I am your husband! Then why don’t you come over here at once!" Yue Hongli looked towards Xia Feng. "Cough~" Xia Feng blinked, "Don’t mind him." "Xia Feng, you bastard! I will kill you!!" The Prince’s robust voice roared like a lion, his entire figure enshrouded in purple-black Fiery Fire Spirit Clothes. He turned his head, his angry eyes coldly staring at Yue Hongli, "My Princess, I command you, come to me!!" Yue Hongli shook her head, her stunningly beautiful face serious, "Although our social relationship through marriage is husband and wife, the word of a master is absolute!" The Prince: "!!!" The word of a master... is absolute?! The crisp voice echoed in the Prince’s mind, and he felt inexplicably cuckolded. What the hell is this situation! He didn’t understand, a myriad of incomprehensions in his heart! The Prince was completely certain that he hadn’t made a single mistake at any step, and upon opening her eyes, the Princess’s gaze held only him, yet why had the recognition of her master failed in the end! Sёarch* The NôvelFire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Not only did it fail, but she also inexplicably acknowledged Xia Feng as her master?! Which step had gone wrong in the end? The more he thought, the more his mind felt like it was going to explode, his eyes reddening as he death-glared the distant man and woman, his voice hoarse, "Boy, what exactly did you do to my Princess?!" Hearing the Prince’s furious voice, Xia Feng expressed his own innocence, spreading his hands, "I swear, I didn’t do anything~" Seeing Xia Feng continue to feign ignorance, the Prince felt that the boy must be mocking him. His cold eyes grew harsh and wicked, "Very well! Boy, you have successfully enraged me!" Xia Feng ignored him, quickly sorting through the information brought by the Princess. It seemed that the Princess’s essence could transform into a blade, the information contained within was exceedingly complex and chaotic, making it exhausting to sift through. However, he soon extracted a few key points from the sea of data. [Catastrophe Contract Form: Gui Blade] [Gui Fortune: Infuse the blade with Evil Power. When the blade causes damage to a target, it can bestow negative luck upon the target. The more Evil Power infused, the stronger the negative luck.] [Gui Domain: When the Evil Power reaches a ’1 year’ peak, the blade can be wielded to release the Gui Domain. Within a thirty-meter radius, all life forms will receive an equal share of negative luck.] [Gui Disaster: *Awaiting Unlock*] [Divine Authority: Evil Fortune, Heaven Granted (Sealed)] [Status: Abnormal (Soul incomplete, lacking common knowledge and memory)] [Caution: Infusing the blade with Evil Power requires the wielder to actively absorb external Evil Power. Overconcentration can lead to loss of sanity or even death. Please use this blade with caution!] Yue Hongli was very strange. Not only did she carry the aura of the Evil Clan, but she also had... the power of the Star God? This Divine Authority should refer to the power of the Star God, right? Xia Feng thought with shock and uncertainty, what on earth had he contracted? Was this woman actually a Star God?! Moreover, Yue Hongli’s abilities were also extremely outrageous, actually involving something as mystical as luck... Xia Feng felt bewildered yet pleasantly surprised, as if he were absentmindedly walking down the road only to inexplicably stumble upon a Divine Artifact. No wonder the Prince held the Princess in such high regard. No, that’s not right, the Prince probably didn’t know about Yue Hongli’s specific abilities. Xia Feng couldn’t help recalling the Prince’s infatuated gaze toward the Princess, and suddenly understood... the Prince was probably just lustfully enamored with Yue Hongli. Any potential power of causality she had was just a bonus. Seeing that Xia Feng completely disregarded him, with a disdainful air about him, the Prince smirked coldly with a dark expression: "Boy, do you think that with the help of the Princess, you can contend with me?" With that, he pulled out a syringe and jabbed it straight into his arm. The grey-black liquid within flowed into his body, snaking beneath his skin like a grey line and rapidly surging along his arm towards his neck and brain. In an instant, the Prince’s eyes bulged blood-red, his sclera filled with numerous blood vessels that spread across his cheeks down to his neck. At the same time, his aura and Spiritual Pressure climbed steeply, reaching the pinnacle of the Third Rank with a faint trend of breaking through. Xia Feng’s dark pupils narrowed slightly, sensing the dangerous aura. The Prince relished the sudden surge of power and Spiritual Pressure coursing through his body as he leered coldly at Xia Feng. Although he was unaware of the Princess’s exact abilities, he understood one principle: if one’s own strength was insufficient to control a great power, using it forcefully would inevitably exact a price. So, if the Princess’s powers were truly immense, Xia Feng would surely have to pay a heavy price to employ them! He was certain of it!
