Chapter 651: Chapter 640: The Choice Given by Lann Jie

"Indeed, it’s you!"

"Indeed, it’s me?" Upon hearing Shi Feng’s words, a look of confusion appeared on Lann Jie’s aged face, as if he had anticipated that it would be him coming to seek Shi Feng out.

Shi Feng continued to speak to the antique figure before him, "Today you saw me and revealed a sliver of killing intent, which I have caught!"

"Oh!" Upon hearing Shi Feng’s words, Lann Jie uttered a light "Oh!" and then nodded appreciatively, saying, "It seems, not only is your Martial Arts Talent defying the heavens, but your Spiritual Sense is also extraordinary. Such a genius, indeed, cannot be left alive! Otherwise, my lineage will be oppressed to the point of death!"

Then, Lann Jie spoke again, "However, I can indeed give you a choice!"

"Oh?" Shi Feng echoed with a light "Oh," showing an interested expression and said, "Let’s hear it! This choice that you’re giving me."

Lann Jie said gravely, "Release your mind and spirit and enter into a Master-Servant Contract with me, to forever submit to me!"

After hearing Lann Jie’s suggestion, Shi Feng nodded and said with a smile, "Oh! This choice isn’t bad. To forever have me in your clutches, with a Master-Servant Contract so I can’t betray you, even if you command me to be lower than pigs and dogs, I must obey. Indeed, not a bad idea!"

"Now, you have no other choice! Submit to me forever or die!" Lann Jie, upon uttering the last word, exuded an icy killing intent that began to emanate from him!

Feeling the killing intent emanating from Lann Jie, Shi Feng appeared serene and collected as he spoke, "An Eight-star Martial Saint in the Eastern Domain is considered a peerless powerhouse from an era, isn’t that so? But you old fool!"

Shi Feng’s tone chilled as he continued, "You even think of taking my life, of making me submit to you, even if you cultivated for another hundred years, you wouldn’t be worthy!"

"How insolent! Even now, you’re stubbornly oblivious!" Lann Jie roared angrily after hearing Shi Feng’s words. He formed his hand into a claw, and soon after, a golden vortex emerged, centered around him, rapidly spinning within the room.

The golden vortex grew smaller as it spun, converging towards the claw heart of Lann Jie’s right hand. A golden light sphere, the size of a head, formed within the Claw Heart, emanating a destructive force as if it could obliterate everything!

"Die!"

With a low growl from Lann Jie, he thrust forward his claw, and the golden light sphere concentrated in the Claw Heart shot out towards Shi Feng!

An Eight-star Martial Saint exerting his full power – it seemed Lann Jie was determined to annihilate Shi Feng with this single blow!

Watching the golden light sphere hammered out by Lann Jie, Shi Feng’s expression remained unchanged, seated cross-legged on the bed, as if Lann Jie’s attack was unworthy of his concern.

Furthermore, Shi Feng casually spoke, "Delusional old fool, you’ve lived your whole life in vain! I don’t want to waste any more time with you."

At the same moment, Shi Feng’s left hand formed a palm, and a blood-red light immediately emerged within his palm.

"Roar!" As a blood-red light flared in front of Shi Feng, a roar like that of a Fierce Beast resounded, causing the entire room to undergo intense tremors!

"Luckily, I had laid down a Prohibition in this room beforehand, otherwise just this roar alone, I don’t know how many people would have been startled!" Looking at the violently shaking room before him, Shi Feng spoke again.

At this moment, right in front of his bed, there appeared a figure dark as ink—it was none other than Di Sha!

As soon as Di Sha appeared, amidst his fierce roar, the golden light sphere hurtling towards him, carrying the powerful force of an Eight-star Martial Saint, was instantly dissipated by the roar!

And at this instant, seeing the suddenly appearing Di Sha, Lann Jie’s aged face immediately underwent a drastic change. This... this power... is this the Power of Martial Emperor? How... how is this possible!

"Go and capture that old fool!" Shi Feng’s serene voice echoed once again in the room.

"Yes, Master!" Di Sha responded with a shout, and immediately charged towards Lann Jie.

"Master... Master... a servant of the Martial Emperor Realm... who... who exactly is this person!" Lann Jie was even more shocked upon hearing the brief exchange between Shi Feng and Di Sha.

But at this moment, Lann Jie realized he had kicked an iron plate and hastily stopped pondering any further, not daring to linger in this place any longer. Now, gone was his previous arrogance; his figure retreated swiftly, just about to reach the window, he made a rapid turn, preparing to break space and flee!

"Hmph! Thinking of running?" A contemptuous sneer promptly arose behind Lann Jie, followed by a sudden intense pain on the top of his head. Lann Jie’s old face changed drastically once again, this time with an expression filled with sheer horror!

An ominous premonition swamped his mind!

Just at the moment, he had turned, Di Sha had also swiftly flashed behind him, stretching out his right hand, grabbing Lann Jie’s grizzled hair and yanking it back. Then, his left hand followed, clenching Lann Jie’s throat.

In the hands of Di Sha, the once powerful Eight-star Martial Saint Realm fighter, Lann Jie, had absolutely no power to resist, no different than a mere chick.

Di Sha’s figure flickered, appearing before Shi Feng, pointing at Lann Jie in his grasp, he asked Shi Feng, "Master, how should we deal with this old thing?"

At this moment, Lann Jie, in the hands of Di Sha, strangled by the throat, already appeared to have lost the demeanor of an unparalleled powerful Eight-star Martial Saint, not much different from a lonely, pitiful old man.

"You... what exactly is your identity..." With a face full of shock, Lann Jie turned to look at Shi Feng, his eyes wide open as he spoke.

"My identity is none of your business!" Shi Feng replied coldly, looking at Lann Jie.

"I..." Lann Jie was momentarily at a loss for words, then quickly pleaded with Shi Feng again, "Spare me! For my old age, and for being the Grand Uncle of Lann Yuan, please spare my old life!"

As Lann Jie begged for mercy, his old face was full of pleading, regret, and pity.

Seeing Lann Jie now reduced to this state, the cold smile on Shi Feng’s face grew even more intense as he spoke indifferently:

"Old fool, you’re regretting now? Isn’t it a bit too late! You’re old, you’re Lann Yuan’s Grand Uncle, all those reasons are none of my concern! Since you wanted to take my life just now, then you, you have no right to live!"

"No! No! Don’t kill me!" Upon hearing Shi Feng’s words, Lann Jie immediately cried out in alarm, "I, I, I am willing to make that choice, I can open my spirit and enter into a Master-Servant Contract with you!" In order to survive, Lann Jie was willing to establish a Master-Servant Contract with Shi Feng, ready to become Shi Feng’s servant!

The choice he had previously given to Shi Feng, he was now imploring Shi Feng to let himself endure!
