Chapter 104: The True Master
"Huo Lao Tou, you want to kill me, don't you? Come on! I, Zhu Bufan, am not afraid of you!"
"Master is joking. Even if you lend me a hundred guts, I, Huo Beixuan, wouldn't dare harbor any further Killing Intent towards the master." Hearing Zhu Bufan's words, Huo Beixuan's face suddenly showed a wry smile.
"Hehe, is that so?" Zhu Bufan chuckled. But the next moment, he noticed something was amiss, "Master? You're calling me master?"
Zhu Bufan was somewhat surprised. What exactly was going on?
"Yes, master. From now on, you are my master, Huo Beixuan, and whatever you need, just command me!" Huo Beixuan said.
Though Huo Beixuan addressed Zhu Bufan as master verbally, in his heart, there was still some discomfort.
Calling someone decades younger his master, especially when the person was far less powerful, indeed made Huo Beixuan feel uncomfortable.
However, after a while, Huo Beixuan came to accept it.
He called Zhu Bufan master, but in reality, Zhu Bufan was not his true master. Huo Beixuan's real master was the powerful spiritual entity residing within Zhu Bufan's body.
So, at this moment, Huo Beixuan's heart was no longer uncomfortable.
The next moment, Huo Beixuan respectfully said to Zhu Bufan, "Master, I was wrong before. I sincerely apologize to you and hope for your forgiveness. From now on, I will serve you loyally, meticulously, and till my last breath!"
At this time, although Huo Beixuan was being respectful and sincere, Zhu Bufan had fallen into deep thought!
Zhu Bufan's memory only remained up to the moment before he closed his eyes, and he did not know what had happened since then.
Zhu Bufan distinctly remembered that Huo Beixuan harbored boundless Killing Intent towards him and that he couldn't even withstand a single move from him.
Yet now, he had woken up in a hospital, and upon awakening, Huo Beixuan had called himself his servant. What exactly was going on?
Zhu Bufan was quite puzzled!
"Kid, this ant, Demon, has signed a soul contract with you both. From now on, he is your pawn. You can use this pawn however you wish. If he dares to harbor any ill intentions towards you, with just a thought from you, he will be annihilated. So, kid, I advise you to make good use of this pawn! Oh, and kid, to save you this time, Demon has expended much energy, and it will likely be a long time before I reemerge. So, I urge you to measure your strength; otherwise, no one will be able to save you in the future!"
While Zhu Bufan was puzzled, a message from the Cultivation Demon came into his mind, along with the method to control and annihilate Huo Beixuan.
At this moment, Zhu Bufan finally understood what was happening.
It turned out that the reason he was alive was because the Cultivation Demon had saved him.
Following the prompt given to him by the Cultivation Demon, Zhu Bufan indeed found a small figure resembling Huo Beixuan in his mind. Lying quietly within Zhu Bufan's mind, the figure showed no expressions or movements. However, with just a thought, he could dissipate it in his mind!
The dissipation of the figure meant the annihilation of Huo Beixuan!
"Well, that's fine. I know what's going on now. You may leave, and I will call on you if there's anything!" Once he knew everything, Zhu Bufan glanced at Huo Beixuan casually and then ordered him away.
"Understood, master!" Upon hearing Zhu Bufan's words, Huo Beixuan felt a slight relief.
The Cultivation Demon had ordered him not to tell Zhu Bufan what had happened after he had closed his eyes.
Initially, Huo Beixuan was a bit worried. What would he do if Zhu Bufan forced him to answer?
At this time, Huo Beixuan's life was firmly in Zhu Bufan's grasp. With just a thought from Zhu Bufan, he could directly annihilate Huo Beixuan.
If Zhu Bufan used this threat to make Huo Beixuan tell him everything that happened afterward, should Huo Beixuan speak or remain silent?
This was an extremely distressing dilemma for Huo Beixuan.
However, now it was okay. It seemed that the real master, Cultivation Demon, had his arrangements.
So, at this moment, Huo Beixuan's worship towards the real master, the Cultivation Demon, was absolute!
Thus, the next moment, after saying one more sentence to Zhu Bufan, Huo Beixuan directly exited the hospital ward.
After Huo Beixuan left the ward, Zhu Bufan did not choose to stay there, even though his body still felt slightly unwell at the time.
At this moment, Zhu Bufan walked alone to the rooftop of the hospital's inpatient building.
He wanted to breathe some fresh air right now!
Although he had learned that he owed his survival and subordination of such a "powerful little brother" like Huo Beixuan to the Cultivation Demon, Zhu Bufan was not foolish!
Because he didn't know about the actions of the Cultivation Demon.
So, at this moment, Zhu Bufan had some unresolved questions, which is why he dismissed Huo Beixuan and came to the rooftop of the inpatient building to think.
The rooftop of the inpatient building was vast and spacious.
It was covered with various equipment, such as air conditioning units, energy and water reserves, and predominantly purifying chambers.
Although Zhu Bufan had not 'stayed' in a hospital before, he recognized these things.
Upon reaching the rooftop, Zhu Bufan glanced around casually.
"It seems that doctors often come here to smoke!" Noticing the cigarette butts littering the ground, Zhu Bufan remarked.
However, just at that moment, a breeze blew by, caressing Zhu Bufan's face, and he felt refreshed.
*Clang!*
Yet, at this instance, the sound of a rolling bottle on the ground directly reached Zhu Bufan's ears.
"Huh? Someone here?"
Upon hearing the sound of the rolling bottle, Zhu Bufan was surprised.
According to this time, there shouldn't be anyone on the rooftop of the inpatient building. After all, it was already past eleven at night.
Under normal circumstances, hospital doctors who were off-duty would have left, and those on-duty would choose to nap in their offices in preparation for the second half of the night, right?
But now, someone was actually on this rooftop. Who could it be?
Thus, Zhu Bufan became curious for a moment.
