Chapter 293: Chapter 293: The Proto-Emperor Artifact Spirit Recognizes Its Master, Taking Control of the Bronze Palace! (Please Follow)

Seeing how straightforward the Artifact Spirit Elder was, Xiao Ye felt a bit surprised, and immediately asked curiously, "Was there a Soul Capturing Pearl in ancient times, and is it this one I’m holding?"

The Artifact Spirit Elder recalled the dazzling Rule Power from earlier, the immobilized Soul Body, and the current surrounding Soul Power Space. He seemed a bit uncertain, and said,

"Maybe not, the Soul Capturing Pearl from the ancient era was only quasi-Emperor Level."

"But your Soul Capturing Pearl, its Rule Power was flawless, and the Soul Power Space had its own world. It was Rule Level Perfection—in other words, an Emperor Level Perfection Soul Capturing Pearl."

"Emperor Level, meaning Rule Level."

"The Bronze Hall had only barely set foot into Rule Level, and the Rule Power it possessed was extremely thin and weak. To be precise, it could only be considered quasi-Emperor Perfection."

Because Xiao Ye hadn’t blocked the Soul Power Space from transmitting sound, Mu Qingxue could also hear what the Artifact Spirit Elder said.

Rule Level Perfection Soul Capturing Pearl!

She was absolutely shocked, staring at the fist-sized orb in Xiao Ye’s hand, then giving Xiao Ye a once-over. Not only could Xiao Ye solve template problems, but he even possessed such top-tier Supreme Treasures that she’d never even owned in her past life.

*She found Xiao Ye more and more impossible to figure out. It was like he was wrapped in a noble and mysterious veil, making it impossible to see his true self.*

Mu Qingxue closed in on Xiao Ye, her beautiful eyes staring right into his, observing his reaction, and pressed, "Xiao Ye, are you some old monster reincarnated? You’ve got the shell of an eighteen-year-old, but inside lives an Old Biden who’s been alive for who knows how many millennia."

Xiao Ye’s face darkened, and he flicked her forehead with his finger.

Mu Qingxue yelped in pain, hugged her head with both hands, and complained, "Why’d you hit me?"

Xiao Ye said speechlessly, "Who’s the real old monster reincarnated here? You really have zero self-awareness."

His tone was very firm, and Mu Qingxue’s eyes widened. She pointed at him with a trembling finger, and said,

"You—you—how did you know?"

"You knew all along that I was a reincarnator, didn’t you?"

Xiao Ye nodded.

*At that moment, Mu Qingxue felt like she was stark naked, as if even her panties had been seen through. She had no cover at all, not a single secret left.*

Xiao Ye said with feigned annoyance, "Alright, no matter whose reincarnation you are, I just see you as Mu Qingxue. Stop overthinking it—let’s focus on the important stuff."

"I’m not some old monster reincarnated anyway, I’m just Xiao Ye. Maybe just a bit luckier than most."

*Mu Qingxue just couldn’t calm down. Her curiosity about Xiao Ye only grew stronger.*

Xiao Ye sent his divine sense into the Soul Power Space, and said, "Artifact Spirit Old Man, I’m giving you two options."

"First, sign a Slave Contract with me, then hand over control of the Bronze Hall. After that, make a contract oath to never betray me."

"Second, I’ll purify you completely, erase your consciousness, and return the Bronze Hall to its masterless state."

The Artifact Spirit Elder could already imagine a future of being controlled and ordered around, but compared to true death, he was willing to surrender. So he voiced the decision he’d already made in his heart,

"I’m willing to recognize you as my master. I can also help the Bronze Hall recognize you as its master."

Xiao Ye laughed, "You’re pretty straightforward—and wise."

The Artifact Spirit Elder also broke into hearty laughter, "I’ve never been one for indecisiveness, nor am I a stubborn old fossil who can’t adapt."

"Whenever you want to set up the Slave Contract, just say the word."

The Slave Contract, unlike the Beast Girl Contract, was an extremely unfair contract.

Once the Slave Contract was formed, the master could activate the contract’s laws at a thought and turn the slave to ashes.

According to the Slave Contract, the master could also sense the slave’s good and evil intentions. If the slave ever plotted against the master, the Slave Contract would issue a warning, letting the master sense the ill intent. With a thought, the master could thoroughly obliterate the slave.

Xiao Ye was overjoyed and said out loud, "Let’s form the Slave Contract now."

As long as he secured the Artifact Spirit Old Man, taking the Bronze Hall would be easy. The system quest could be completed, and he’d get the system reward to improve the Template Adjuster’s upgrade function. ƒreewebɳovel.com

Xiao Ye tossed the Contract Scroll he’d prepared long ago into the Soul Power Space.

The Artifact Spirit Elder glanced at the Contract Scroll, then decisively activated it, allowing the contract’s laws to entwine his Soul Body.

After a flash of light, the Contract Scroll calmed down and returned to Xiao Ye’s hand.

Xiao Ye examined it for a moment, and after making sure it was fine, let a drop of his blood essence fall onto the Contract Scroll.

Buzz buzz buzz!

A blue light appeared, the Power of Laws emerged from the void and linked Xiao Ye with the Artifact Spirit Elder inside the Soul Power Space. Soon, the contract was complete.

Xiao Ye sensed it and felt a control over the Artifact Spirit Elder—absolute control.

With just a thought, he could limit the Elder’s Realm, bind his Soul Power, or even wipe him out completely.

But from his sense, the Artifact Spirit Old Man had no ill intent toward him, and the Slave Contract did not trigger any warnings, so Xiao Ye didn’t restrict him.

After releasing the Artifact Spirit Old Man, Mu Qingxue’s face changed and she darted behind Xiao Ye.

The Artifact Spirit Old Man knelt on one knee and cupped his fist, saying,

"Slave Tang Hao, greets his master!"

"From now on, Tang Hao lives for his master. Wherever your finger points, that’s where I strive!"

"Here and now, I, Tang Hao, make a Law Oath—never betray you. If I do, let my soul be annihilated."

Xiao Ye was very satisfied with his attitude. He went over and helped him up, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "You’re pretty great, I like you."

"Now transfer control of the Bronze Hall."

The Artifact Spirit Elder, Tang Hao, nodded, and said, "I’ll take you to the Bronze Hall’s core hub space right away."

Seeing Mu Qingxue still hiding behind him, Xiao Ye flicked her forehead and said, "Mu Qingxue, you scared?"

Mu Qingxue, seeing that the Artifact Spirit Elder was not a threat, stepped out in one stride, lifted her not-so-prominent chest and said pridefully,

"Who’s scared? I’m Mu Qingxue! How could I be?"

Xiao Ye’s mouth twitched, but he ignored her and said, "Xiao Hao, take us to the core space."

The Artifact Spirit Elder waved his hand, and a blue Light Gate appeared, taking the two of them through it.

The environment changed, and the three found themselves in a void space. In the center was an irregular Chaotic Energy Body that radiated chains of Rule Power throughout the space, all belonging to the Bronze Hall.

Tang Hao said, "This is the core of the Bronze Hall. It hasn’t formed self-awareness, though. I’ll transfer control to you now."

Once the control was transferred, Tang Hao would no longer be the Artifact Spirit of the Bronze Hall.

Without the power of the Bronze Hall, even if he was a quasi-Emperor Level Soul Body, over time, he’d ultimately reach the end of his lifespan.

Xiao Ye nodded, knowing this kind of space from his experience in the Secret Realm Core of the Sacred Spirit Secret Realm, so he knew Tang Hao wasn’t making this up.

With that, Tang Hao released control over the Bronze Hall and transferred it to Xiao Ye,
