Chapter 157: Yun Han Pays His Respects

Chapter 157

Lin Mo stiffened at Yun Han’s question. "A lot has happened while you were in a coma," he explained. "Now that Little White has returned, you should gradually recall its experiences, memories, and perceptions from this time. Do you remember what happened before you lost consciousness?"


Yun Han nodded. "I remember... I was severely injured back then. After being sent back to the Seven Star Divine Mountain, my spiritual power quickly collapsed, and my Mutated Value rose. To avoid going berserk and attacking people indiscriminately after my spiritual power shattered, I had to seal myself away. I originally thought I would never wake up again. I truly never imagined there would come a day when I’d be conscious again." 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮


Yun Han’s overall combat strength was immense. If he were to go berserk, he could destroy the entire Seven Star Divine Mountain. However, if he had tried to take his own life, his mother and father would have certainly stopped him. With no other choice, he had sealed his own Spiritual Sea.


Lin Mo sighed. "Your injuries left you comatose, and your father tried many methods to save you, but nothing worked. At that point, the mainframe matched you with a Contractor—Ning Xuan. However, Ning Xuan was born on a D-level planet. She had only just awakened at seventeen, and her Spiritual Power Value was a mere 51. Your father must have thought she was unworthy of you and couldn’t help you. I don’t know what he was thinking, but he sent assassins from the Slaughter Pavilion to kill Ning Xuan." At this, Lin Mo looked at Yun Han with immense sympathy.


Yun Han was exquisitely beautiful, like a masterpiece meticulously sculpted by the heavens. He had round, cat-like eyes that held a natural air of nobility and mystery. His pupils were a deep amber, like two crystalline gems, and seemed to shift color under different lights. A high-bridged nose and a sharp, angular jawline sculpted his perfect, refined features. His hair was a brilliant gold, soft and dazzling against his cool, pale complexion, creating a perfectly balanced allure.


Yun Han’s physique was tall and slender, and his every movement possessed an innate elegance. His Bloodline Talent was exceptionally potent; he had demonstrated extraordinary abilities from a young age, and both his spiritual power and combat prowess far exceeded those of his peers. He had a calm disposition and would not fight lightly, but once he made a move, his speed and strength would erupt instantaneously, revealing his formidable combat strength.


No one in his generation could even come close to matching him; even students several years his senior were not his equal.


When Lin Mo finished, Yun Han’s mouth fell open in astonishment. "You... you’re saying my father sent someone to assassinate Ning Xuan?" He found it hard to believe. ’Why would Father have Ning Xuan assassinated just because he looked down on her?’


Yun Han had already stepped out of the Energy Cabin. Wearing his familiar Mysterious Ring, he retrieved a Space Button containing clothes and changed into a formal, golden suit. However, after lying down for two years, his muscle mass had noticeably declined. The suit, which would have once fit perfectly, now hung a little loosely on him. Yun Han squeezed his soft arm and sighed. ’This used to be solid muscle... But now that I’m awake, I can build it back up quickly.’


"Yes. The evidence is irrefutable, and your father confessed," Lin Mo confirmed with a nod.


Yun Han took a deep breath. ’So, being demoted by my Contractor to a Contracted Slave... is this my punishment for what my father did?’


Although Yun Han’s heart ached, he quickly accepted his new identity as Ning Xuan’s Contracted Slave. After all, if Ning Xuan hadn’t saved him, his only fate would have been death. More importantly, his father had tried to harm her, yet she had still been willing to accept him and save his life. It was only right that he become her Contracted Slave.


"Is this outfit acceptable for meeting the Contractor?" Yun Han’s complexion was still good, and the suit made him look sharp and alert.


Lin Mo met Yun Han’s expectant gaze and gave a slightly stiff nod. ’My cousin accepted his new identity quickly, but he clearly doesn’t realize what kind of treatment he’ll have to endure as a Contracted Slave.’


’Soon, he’ll learn that he has no freedom to choose what to wear.’


After Yun Han had been delivered and the Contract registered with the Controller Protection Association and the Information Registration Center, the Protection Association had dispatched a large crate. Inside was a complete set of rules that Contracted Slaves were required to follow, covering all aspects of life from clothing and food to lodging and transport. It even came with a Tutor who specialized in training Contracted Slaves.


At the request of the Controller Protection Association staff, both he and Chen Nan had inspected the devices inside the crate. Upon seeing the bizarrely shaped instruments whose purposes were obvious at a glance, both of their faces had turned pale. He knew many Contractors enjoyed torturing their Contracted Slaves for amusement and had even seen videos of such things. Ning Xuan had never used anything like that on them, but now that these items were here, who knew what the future held.


Noticing Little White’s sudden disappearance, Ning Xuan guessed that Yun Han must have awoken. As her Cultivation had also just reached a natural stopping point, she rose and left the Cultivation Room.


The moment Ning Xuan exited the Cultivation Room, Di Youlin materialized from thin air, following behind her like a shadow. Ning Xuan had grown accustomed to Di Youlin’s ghostly appearances. In the past, his sudden materializations would startle her, but ever since her Companion Spirit had taken form, her perception of her surroundings had been greatly enhanced. She could now sense the positions of Di Youlin and the other hidden guards tasked with her safety.


Just after leaving the Cultivation Room, Ning Xuan received a communication from Lin Mo, who said he was bringing Yun Han to pay his respects to the Contractor. Ning Xuan dispatched Di Youlin to relay a message, telling the two of them to wait for her in her courtyard.


When Ning Xuan returned, Yun Han was kneeling ramrod straight in the center of the courtyard. His hands were folded over his knees and his head was slightly bowed in a posture of respect and humility. His back was erect and his shoulders broad; even while kneeling, he emanated the iron-willed aura of a soldier forged in the military.


Ning Xuan’s gaze lingered on him for a moment. Broad shoulders, long legs, a straight back, a narrow waist, and a perfectly proportioned frame. His physique alone possessed an elegance that was impossible to ignore.


Ning Xuan slowly walked over to him, leaned down slightly, and used two fingers to lift his chin. She took in his picturesque features, the high bridge of his nose, and his well-defined lips. Even with his head bowed in submission, it could not conceal the cool pride that was ingrained in his very bones.


’You could tell he was handsome even when he was just lying in bed. Now that he’s awake, he’s even more stunning.’ Ning Xuan was quite satisfied with his appearance.


As Ning Xuan drew near, Yun Han’s previously turbulent Spiritual Sea instantly calmed. A tremor then ran through his entire being. Deep within his bloodline, an intense craving for Ning Xuan bloomed—a craving for her touch, for her proximity.


Yun Han turned to Ning Xuan and kowtowed. "Contracted Slave Yun Han pays his respects to Lord Contract Master."
