Chapter 586
Chapter 586
Yi Feng had been hiding outside for a full month.
The battle near the transmission portal had finally subsided.
Seizing the opportunity, Yi Feng activated the system and opened the teleportation array.
As the familiar sensation enveloped him, Yi Feng let out a sigh of relief.
This trip had truly terrified him.
Gong Chen, who had been meditating at the courtyard gate, saw a figure suddenly appear out of thin air.
His eyes lit up with excitement as he exclaimed, "The Master has returned!"
Master?
What a grand and impressive title!
Yi Feng glanced at Gong Chen, noting his extremely respectful demeanor.His previous frustrations vanished instantly, and he felt elated. It truly was a wonderful title.
He straightened his posture slightly, clasping his hands behind his back and maintaining a calm expression, trying to look worthy of such a prestigious title.
"Hmm, where are the others?" he asked.
As soon as he spoke, a crowd of people hurriedly emerged from the courtyard.
"Ah, the Master is back!"
"Greetings to the Master!" The group bowed to Yi Feng in unison.
This display of respect and the use of such an impressive title pleased Yi Feng immensely. He couldn't help but show a hint of joy on his face as he nodded, "Mm, not bad."
The Master had praised them?!
Everyone became excited, looking at Yi Feng expectantly.
No, he couldn't let them know he was happy because of the title.
That would ruin the mystique.
So Yi Feng pointed at the plants in the backyard and said, "The greenery in the courtyard looks nice."
"Thank you for your praise, Master!" The group tending to the backyard responded happily, their faces beaming with joy at Yi Feng's compliment.
Only Gong Chen remained outside this circle of joy.
So he quickly stepped forward and added, "Master, regarding the people you instructed me to recruit, I've found another woman. She's at the Reincarnation Realm, has a good character, and is resilient."
"Very good," Yi Feng said.
Hearing this, Gong Chen's face also lit up with joy. "Thank you for your praise, Master!"
"Shall I bring her to meet you now, Master?" Gong Chen asked.
"That won't be necessary. I don't have time to see her now. Let her come on her own, swear an oath, and then she can stay here," Yi Feng waved his hand, declining the offer.
"Understood," Gong Chen responded, then added, "That woman has been corrupted by the Dark Shadow Island. She hasn't eaten or drunk anything for a long time and is quite weak. Master, do you think we should let her eat something?"
"It's normal to be injured on this Dark Shadow Island," Yi Feng didn't find anything unusual about it and directly said, "After she swears the oath and stays here, let her eat something to recover her strength."
"Yes!" Gong Chen replied, "I will personally oversee it."
"You don't need to oversee it," Yi Feng said. "You're coming with me."
Going out???
Gong Chen thought he had misheard, his eyes widening in shock as he looked at Yi Feng, "Master wants to take me outside?!"
"Yes."
Yi Feng looked at Gong Chen, understanding his excitement.
The Dark Shadow Island, this godforsaken place, was the exile land of the Immortal Realm, similar to a death row prison.
No matter how powerful a big shot was, once they came in, they could only wait for death, with no way out.
Even a trash Human Immortal like himself could only enter and exit using the system.
Gong Chen, who could only wait for death here, would naturally be overjoyed to follow him out of the Dark Shadow Island.
This aspect of the system was quite good, conveniently providing him with a skill to show off in front of these big shots.
Of course, the reason Yi Feng wanted to go out again right after returning was that he was starving after hiding out for a month.
Although there were wolves and vultures to eat on the Dark Shadow Island, he was sick of eating them after so long.
So he planned to go outside for a good meal, otherwise, he'd be letting down his famished stomach.
And to prevent the embarrassing incident from last time from happening again, he decided to bring along Gong Chen, his Reincarnation Realm bodyguard.
However, thinking about Gong Chen...
A thought occurred to Yi Feng.
He calmly looked at the excited Gong Chen without saying a word.
Gong Chen felt a chill run down his spine under Yi Feng's gaze, his excitement fading. He anxiously asked, "Why is Master looking at me like that?"
"I was thinking, I can take you out, and I can also bring you back," Yi Feng said calmly, his words carrying an air of authority.
"So after going out, you mustn't harbor any other thoughts."
That's right, he was afraid that once he took Gong Chen out, he might run away.
After all, for people like them who had been imprisoned on this sunless Dark Shadow Island for countless ages, being able to leave was an unimaginable blessing.
Oaths and such were important to immortals, but he knew very well they were useless.
For such an incredible opportunity that they couldn't even dream of, who knew if it might overwhelm their rationality, making them disregard even their oaths.
Yi Feng couldn't tolerate even the slightest possibility.
If they went out, with Gong Chen's Reincarnation Realm cultivation, not only could he easily escape from Yi Feng, but he could also effortlessly kill him and destroy all evidence.
These words were a blatant warning!
Hearing this, Gong Chen no longer had a trace of excitement.
He fell to his knees with a "thud" and said, "Master, please see clearly, I wouldn't dare to have even the slightest other thought!"
"If Master doubts my loyalty, then I won't go out!" Gong Chen said in terror, raising his hand above his head. "Not only that, I'll cripple my entire cultivation to prove my loyalty!"
As he spoke, he was about to bring his hand down on his head.
