Chapter 30 Blood PactFollowing Ye Feng's denial, Ah Yin fell into silence.After the sacrifice, she had nothing left to begin with, otherwise she wouldn't have been struggling on the verge of death in this gloomy and dark environment.Seeing that Ah Yin was silent, Ye Feng no longer paid attention to her. Maintaining the mental force link to keep her awake, he turned around and continued to search for the Spirit Bone.However, being awake at this moment had become a kind of agony for Ah Yin.Her desire for survival intertwined with her love for Tang Hao.She didn't know if Tang Hao would come to save her. After this deep sleep, perhaps she would never see Tang Hao and her child again."On the right wall, at the darker-colored location, there is a cavity. My Spirit Bone is hidden there."Ye Feng glanced at her in surprise, not knowing what she wanted to do.Ah Yin spoke tremblingly, her tone carrying a hint of tremor:"I will give the Spirit Bone to you. Can you... tell me about the situation of Tang Hao and my son?"Ye Feng could tell that she already harbored thoughts of death, only asking to hear news of her husband and son before she died.He sighed inwardly, thinking that as expected of a romance-obsessed continent, the purity of her love-brained nature was truly high.She was almost dying, yet she was still thinking about Tang Hao, without even considering how she had ended up in this state?After a moment of silence, Ye Feng nodded and poured all the anime and novels of Douluo Continent from his mind straight into hers.Along with it, he also sent his conjectures regarding the conspiracy theories about Tang Hao's father and son, as well as Tang San's possession.For someone on the verge of death, what harm was there in letting her know everything?This could also be considered Ye Feng's greatest mercy toward someone on the verge of death.Ye Feng wasn't afraid of her reporting him; if she could go out, she would have gone out long ago. Would she have waited until now?As for whether those conjectures were true or false, she would have to judge them for herself. How could a mere three million words in the original work possibly portray a complete World?Ignoring Ah Yin, whose brain had crashed from the massive amount of information, Ye Feng walked over to the location she had mentioned.He tapped it with his finger, and a thump-thump sound came back—it was indeed a cavity.Afterwards, with a gentle push from his right hand, the wall instantly collapsed to reveal a hollow space, inside of which lay a wooden box inlaid with a circle of golden patterns.Ye Feng was overjoyed and immediately opened the wooden box. A blue-golden Spirit Bone appeared before his eyes.A Spirit Bone—though called a Spirit Bone, it looked more like an exquisitely carved piece of jade, emitting a soft and warm glow.Glancing at the Spirit Bone, Ye Feng put it back into the wooden box and carefully stored it inside his spirit tool.Immediately following that, Ye Feng walked toward Ah Yin, just as he was preparing to end her life."Wait a minute!"Suddenly, Ah Yin let out a loud shout mixed with sorrow and anger. The shrillness in her tone didn't sound at all like the gentle woman from the memories in Ye Feng's mind."These things you showed me... are they all true?"Ye Feng shook his head and said with a sincere tone:"I don't like to lie. The vast majority of this is true. As for the guessed parts, you can only judge them for yourself."Ye Feng's words were like the last straw that broke the camel's back.Almost the moment he finished speaking, Ah Yin laughed. Her laughter was desolate and very loud, as if mocking her own self who had been deceived and made a fool of.She was unwilling to believe those conjectures in her mind, unwilling to believe that her Brother Hao was merely utilizing her.She searched through all her memories, wanting to find evidence that he loved her.In the end, she succeeded, and she also failed.While finding love, she also discovered many suspicious points.Perhaps the man named Tang Hao truly loved her, but this love was not pure.At least he was quite willing to obtain her spirit ring.This could also explain why Tang Hao left her behind in this pitch-dark cave.He was afraid to see her again, yet he couldn't bear to kill her.The result was leaving her to stay here, suffering a fate worse than death.However, people's joys and sorrows are not the same; Ye Feng only found her noisy."It seems that the conjecture regarding Tang Hao is correct."After his sigh of emotion, he unhesitatingly reached out to grab Ah Yin's roots, wanting to end her life.Perhaps feeling the crisis of death, Ah Yin broke free from that state of self-pity and self-deprecation."Tang San, right, Tang San. I cannot die yet. I must go see my child. I must go and confirm it with my own eyes."Ah Yin began to struggle fiercely, yet how much strength did she have left at this moment?As root after root snapped, Ah Yin became weaker and weaker."Wait, wait a minute, don't kill me. I am still useful; I can forge a blood pact with you."Ah Yin's voice was intermittent and extremely weak.This piqued Ye Feng's interest. He stopped his actions, casually inputting some attribute-less spirit power, wanting to hear what a blood pact was.With the input of spirit power, Ah Yin's condition improved a lot.But she knew this was temporary, and she had to explain the information about the blood pact as quickly as possible."A blood pact is a secret technique unique to my Blue Silver Emperor clan. It allows two people to forge a contract, and the effect of the blood pact is extremely overbearing.""The two people who forge the blood pact, no matter what the content of the blood pact is, must strictly obey it.""Moreover, forging a blood pact will cause extremely great consumption to the Blue Silver Emperor's origin source. Generally, a Blue Silver Emperor would not choose this method."Hearing this, Ye Feng was extremely surprised. The original work never mentioned anything about a blood pact.But thinking of Tang San's selfish and self-interested personality, he understood."Ah Yin, in your current state, are you sure you can still execute such a high-consumption secret technique?"Ah Yin's leaves trembled as she replied:"I can, but I will fall into a deep sleep for a very long time."Ye Feng nodded, approving of this method of hers.Previously, Ye Feng had taken away Ah Yin's Spirit Bone. If possible, he didn't want to kill Ah Yin.He wasn't that shameless yet; as long as his identity wouldn't be exposed and he could avoid taking lives, he wouldn't kill.Respect for life was something he still possessed.Ye Feng pondered for a moment and drafted the contents of the blood pact:"First, Ah Yin is not allowed to act against Ye Feng in any way, nor is she allowed to leak intelligence.""Second, Ye Feng must transplant Ah Yin to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.""Third, Ah Yin must work for Ye Feng for ten years to collect intelligence for him.""Consider this a deal between you and me: you give me the 100,000-year Spirit Bone and work for me for ten years.""I showed you the intelligence of Douluo Continent for the next few decades and will provide you with a good living environment to restore your strength."Seeing that Ah Yin didn't speak, Ye Feng added a sentence."This contract is already very fair. Don't blame me; you know too many things, and it's impossible for me to let you leak them.""Child, you... are you not going to turn me into your slave?""Slaves? There's no need. I don't like forcing others. As long as you don't harm me, I won't bother with you. Wanting to kill you earlier was also to silence you.""Otherwise, if Tang Hao knew that the Blue Silver Emperor Spirit Bone was on me, for the sake of Tang San, he would definitely hunt me down."Ah Yin's mood at this moment was very complicated; she didn't know whether she should thank him or resent him.According to the memories provided by Ye Feng in her mind, if Ye Feng hadn't appeared, she would have been rescued by Tang Hao, ultimately becoming the life core of Douluo Continent, and enjoying her old age together with Tang Hao.But Ye Feng's intervention broke this seemingly beautiful ending.He made her see everything clearly, yet he also destroyed her love.
