Chapter 7- The Master-Slave Contract
"Little girl, were you the one that set this senior free?" The man's eyebrows raised as he curled his lips into a seeming smile at Mu Ru Yue. "Since you've helped this senior regain his freedom, this senior won't kill you. You're free to go."
With a wave of his hand, a gush of wind was released from the man's sleeves. Suddenly, his expression changed as his body roughly released an oppressive aura.
"Who? Who was it that contracted this senior?! On top of it, it's that wretched kind of master and slave contract! Who did this?!"
In a master and slave contract, for the entirety of his life, the contractee would not be able to go against the owner that he was contracted to. Otherwise, he would enter hell and would be unable to reincarnate for all eternity.
His domineering dark eyes narrowed slightly as he shifted his gaze to Mu Ru Yue. Fury shining in his eyes, he shouted, "Were you the one that contracted this senior?! No. With your abilities, you don't even have enough strength to contract this senior! Could it be...."
His gaze shifted to the Book of Alchemy that was quietly sitting in Mu Ru Yue's hand. He gnashed his teeth, because that item had not only sealed him for so many years, it had also helped that girl successfully seal a contract with him.
'I have finally gained freedom, but only to have it smothered by that dreaded book!'
Once he recovered his powers, the very first thing he would do was destroy that stupid book.
"Who are you?" Mu Ru Yue, with a slightly cold gaze, looked emotionless at the handsome and domineering man before her. From this sudden incident, she had drawn two conclusions.
First, her reincarnation must have had something to do with this Book of Alchemy.
Second, the Book of Alchemy originated from the Martial God Continent. It was unknown how it had appeared in Hua Xia.
'No matter what, since I am already here, I should just adapt to the situation. The most important thing now is to increase my powers! The way of life here in this large continent is the same as in Hua Xia, where experts are revered. I can only continue to live if I become stronger. As long as I live, I'll find a way to return to Hua Xia.''
The man's handsome face darkened, akin to the expression of one who thought that he had escaped from jail, only to find himself in another prison. "Yan Jin, that's this senior's name. Ten thousand years ago, whenever this senior's name was mentioned, countless blockheads would tremble in fear. But it was a pity that this senior fell into a human's trap and was sealed into a book. Since that seal lasted for 10,000 years, most likely only a minority would still remember this senior's name."
"Who was the one that sealed you?" Mu Ru Yue asked with a calm and collected gaze.
"How can this senior know? If this senior knew which bastard did this, this senior would make them regret ever having been born!" Yan Jin gnashed his teeth in hatred. "It is unfortunate that during that time my power halved and the rest of the power in my body isn't stable. Otherwise, even with the assistance of the Book of Alchemy, it would have been impossible for you to contract this senior."
Realizing that he had fallen into the demonic claws of the human race yet again, Yan Jin's expression became extremely ugly.
"Anyways, I don't plan on retaining you. If you want to leave, by all means, you're free to do so." Mu Ru Yue got off the bed and personally poured a cup of tea without even giving that man a glance.
Yan Jin's gaze was locked onto the young girl with an unfathomable glimmer in his deep eyes. He strode to Mu Ru Yue and sat in front of her. Raising a corner of his lips, he said, "This senior doesn't plan on leaving yet."
His current powers were too unstable and could only recover slightly faster by that young girl's side. So Yan Jin, who was hoping to recover his powers as soon as possible, decided to stay. Once his powers had fully recovered, the master and servant contract wouldn't be able to restrict him for long.
"If you want to stay, you must follow two of my rules." Mu Ru Yue tasted the bitter tea with elegance. With a slight raise of her brow, she continued, "First, I don't care what identity you previously had, but at my place, you aren't allowed to display your arrogance. Second, my words must be followed unconditionally. If you can't do that, you can just leave. I don't plan to keep people that refuse to follow my orders only to back-stab me during a battle."
Chapter 8- A Handsome Guy That Fell From The Sky
The young girl's current resolute expression was so dazzling that it made Yan Jin slightly narrow his deep eyes, eyes carrying a darkness that would make people feel suffocated when they looked into them.
He suddenly chuckled. With his sword-like brows raised, his eyes were as dark as the night of the new moon.
"What do you think our contract is? It's the most overbearing kind of master and slave contract! Unless you terminate the contract between this senior and yourself, when you die, this senior will also have to die with you!"
If it weren't for this, he wouldn't have been that angry.
Of course, he also did not want to leave right away, since the young girl was the owner of the Book of Alchemy. His power would definitely recover quicker around her rather than if he were on his own.
Mu Ru Yue raised her eyebrows. Did that mean he was sort of agreeing to her demands?
"You'd be too obvious if you followed me in this manner."
Her words meant that he had to hide in the shadows, and be out of sight.
But with Yan Jin's personality, how could he willingly stay as a silhouette in the shadows?
"It wouldn't be a big deal for this senior."
Yan Jin raised his domineering, sword-like brows as a black light-ray enveloped his body. Gradually, his body shrunk and metamorphosed into a small palm-sized black beast.
The appearance of the little beast's body was sparkling, translucent, and soft like a gelatinous dessert. It was truly adorable. The two large watery eyes on the palm-sized beast gave you the impression of seeing the indistinct water from them.
It was unimaginable that this little beast, capable of causing much devastation among people, was the previous domineering handsome man.
"This is your original form." Mu Ru Yue smilingly pinched the soft flexible body of the little beast, her eyes brimming with happiness.
Instantly, Yan Jin, who seemed to have been struck by lightning, froze on the spot. A suspicious red colour showed up on his black body. Judging by the location, and compared to a human's body, that place would have been his butt.
His butt had actually been pinched twice by a young human girl?
However, Mu Ru Yue was unaware of her actions, so she did not have the slightest intention of letting go. Yan Jin gritted his teeth with hatred. If he had still been human at this moment, his handsome face would have turned blood red.
"Let's go. First, we'll head out to look around."
☀
The Royal Phoenix City displayed a prosperous look.
The young girl walked along the buzzing streets, cold gazes watching her as she passed by. It was undeniable that she had really come to a different world which was similar to Hua Xia.
Even though she had the previous body owner's memory, this world was still entirely foreign to her.
"But I'll definitely be able to return where I came from during this life unless I die along the way." She pinched hard on the soft body of the little beast in her arms, two more times. Mu Ru Yue slowly lifted her gaze with steadiness that was unlike the tender age expressed on her lovable face.
The little beast glared angrily at her. Thinking about the girl's previous actions, his eyes turned watery with grievance.
What could he do? In order to recover his powers quickly, he had to endure!
"Little girl, where are we heading to now?"
Yan Jin's domineering voice sounded in her mind, making Mu Ru Yue raise her eyebrows. "Stop talking."
"This senior is communicating with you through spirit." Yan Jin rolled his eyes. His expression was as though he was looking down on a country bumpkin who didn't know anything.
But Mu Ru Yue didn't bicker with him. She slightly raised her eyes with luminous light rays in her gaze.
"I'm thinking of ways to earn money."
She needed to manufacture pills. The main components in manufacturing pills were the pill furnace and ingredients that would require money to purchase, but she was so poor that she did not have any money.
At this moment, Mu Ru Yue was passing by the Pheonix city's most luxurious Xiang Yun restaurant, when she heard clamor from above her. She didn't know what happened, but was struck by something.
Hiss!
The pain of having her bones under pressure made Mu Ru Yue take in a mouthful of cold air. Her eyebrows slightly knitted, and just as she raised her head to know what had struck her body, a handsome appearance suddenly came into sight.
At that instant, she understood what it meant to be absolutely stunning, and to have looks that could sweep anyone off their feet.
