Having the genes of a demon king, I never intended to be a kept man.

Chapter 1349 Wind Dragon Soul Bead

Give me a reason to spare your life.

Ye Ge's deep, dark eyes fell on Lan Feng, as if they could penetrate her soul.

Lan Feng knelt on the ground, her shoulders trembling slightly. She raised her eyes, which were already red-rimmed, and her voice was choked with sobs: "I...I still have family to take care of. My mother was corrupted by demonic energy more than ten years ago and needs long-term medication. If I hadn't been searching for and supplying her with rare and precious medicinal herbs, she wouldn't have survived..."

"I didn't realize you were so filial," Ye Ge said calmly. "But that's none of my business. What else?"

"..."

Lan Feng paused, bit his lower lip lightly, and finally seemed to have made up his mind, saying, "If you can let me go... I have a way to copy my superpower to you!"

Ye Ge raised an eyebrow: "Copy?"

"Yes!" Seeing that he seemed interested, Lan Feng quickly explained, "This is actually one of my abilities. I can actively copy my wind-type ability talent... Of course, there are some limitations. Even the copied wind-type ability is slightly different from my original ability. It's a variant of my ability... Also, it's very difficult to learn. Without S-rank or higher attribute learning ability, it's probably impossible to comprehend and learn it..."

"This is the first time I've ever heard of a superhuman being being able to copy their abilities and pass them on to others." Ye Ge raised his hand and stroked his chin, considered for a moment, and said, "Alright, if you're willing to serve me, I can spare your life."

Lan Feng was overjoyed. Without hesitation, she knelt down, clasped her hands in front of her forehead, and bowed deeply, saying, "Thank you, Master!"

“However,” Ye Ge said, “you must prove your loyalty to me before I dare to use you with confidence.”

Upon hearing this, Lan Feng cautiously looked at him and asked, "How can I prove it?...?"

“It’s simple, you’ll find out once you pass the test,” Night Song said. “Let me see what level of apostle you will become.”

"An apostle?" Lan Feng was stunned. Before he could react, he saw a strange and sinister dark light suddenly appear in Ye Ge's deep, abyss-like eyes!

Her body stiffened, her eyes instantly losing focus, as if she had been dragged into an endless void of consciousness...

"..."

Not long after.

boom! ! !

A surge of immense magical power erupted from Lan Feng's body without warning! Gusts of wind coiled around her like dragons, resonating and merging with her original wind-based abilities, causing her aura to rise steadily until she reached the level of a "Level 10 Apostle"!

"This is......"

Lan Feng snapped out of her daze, astonished to feel the surging pure magic power around her, as if every wisp of wind had become an extension of her consciousness.

"Level 10 Apostle, not bad, you've passed." Ye Ge said calmly, "Now you have obtained my faith power, and on the basis of your own extraordinary power, you have also obtained magic power equivalent to a level 10 demon apostle. At the same time, I can also sense your loyalty to me in real time, or rather, your piety. If you have any disloyalty, I can take your life at any time."

Lan Feng was deeply shocked. Just now, in that space of consciousness, she seemed to hear Ye Ge's demonic form whisper like the heavens themselves. Those few words were like a sudden enlightenment, filling her with boundless awe and submission. Before she could even sort out her thoughts, power surged like a tidal wave, propelling her to her current state.

When she returned to the real world from her consciousness, she was shocked to find that she had become a level 10 demon apostle!

Night Song... has actually been able to control the power of faith and become the very source of faith!

Isn't this comparable to a legendary ancient demon god?

"Thank you, Master, for bestowing upon me this power!" Lan Feng was overwhelmed with emotion and bowed deeply once more.

"Get up." Ye Ge raised his hand slightly, then seemed to remember something, his tone casual yet firm, "Oh, by the way, your mother's illness is not difficult to cure. My pure magic power can purify the dark corruption of ordinary demonic energy. You have now obtained my magic power. You only need to channel my power into her body, and she will be cured in a few days."

Lan Feng was stunned: "Really...really?"

"Why would I need to lie to you?" Ye Ge asked.

"Thank... thank you, Master!"

Lan Feng felt a surge of excitement: "Feng Nu is willing to swear allegiance to his master and serve him to the death!"

"...Ahem, you can call me master, but please stop calling me 'slave'." Ye Ge coughed twice, making him blush slightly.

If Xue'er and Yao Yao heard this, wouldn't it cause some misunderstandings?

Lan Feng blushed slightly: "Yes... I understand."

"Alright, get up."

"Yes."

Lan Feng got up as instructed, his demeanor much more composed than before.

She composed herself and said, "Master, I will now copy the 'Wind Dragon Soul' ability to you."

Having said that, she closed her eyes and focused her mind, placing one hand on her chest, a faint blue aura emanating from her body. Before long, a Dragon Soul Pearl, swirling with the power of wind, slowly condensed in her palm, shimmering with light and faintly emitting the sound of a dragon's roar.

"Master, please accept this." She offered it with both hands, her expression respectful.

Ye Ge lightly lifted his fingertip, and the Dragon Soul Pearl floated into his hand as if drawn by a force.

The bead felt slightly warm to the touch, as if it contained a wisp of the soul of an ancient wind dragon, subtly resonating with the aura surrounding him.

"After that, you will keep a close eye on Cang Ting's every move for me." Ye Ge toyed with the Dragon Soul Pearl, her tone turning cold. "Especially investigate his specific plans with the Zerg. If you find anything, report to me immediately, understand?"

"Yes! Your subordinate will do his utmost!" Lan Feng replied solemnly.

......

Back at his residence, Ye Ge stood alone by the window, the dragon soul pearl gleaming with a blue light floating in his palm.

The pearly light shimmered and reflected on his sharply defined profile, casting soft shadows.

“This is Lan Feng’s ‘Wind Dragon Soul’ ability…” he muttered to himself.

Legend has it that this Soul Bead was formed from the undying primordial spirit of an ancient wind-elemental dragon that had passed away at the demise of its master. It is a treasure passed down through generations of Lan Feng's family.

Anyone who absorbs this Wind Dragon Soul Pearl can immediately awaken the wind attribute dragon soul ability, regardless of their race, whether they are an extraordinary being or even a mortal with no foundation.

"I didn't expect such an unexpected gain this time." Ye Ge smiled slightly and casually added the Dragon Soul Pearl to the system's inventory.

He fell into deep thought. Cang Ting had specifically assigned Lan Feng to monitor him constantly; it seemed they had indeed planted something within the city that they didn't want him to notice...

"Now that we've incorporated Lan Feng, things will be much easier. However, some of the professional informants scattered throughout the city are actually Cang Ting's own people."

We need to find a way to get rid of these people.

Ye Ge pondered, then, with a sudden thought, summoned the system panel and sent a message to his contacts:

[Night Song: Come here, I have a task for you.]

......

About half an hour later.

A moment later, the shadow in the corner of the room twisted and slowly gathered like ink, eventually solidifying into three blurry human figures.

Song Jie stepped out first, a smile on his face: "My lord, it's been a long time!"

Beside them stood two veteran members of the Shadows—Zero and Gray Smoke. They bowed simultaneously, their voices low and respectful: "My lord."
