CHAPTER 32: CHAPTER 32: MASTER, IS THAT SISTER’S HAND SOFT?

In the medbay, a quick-witted female team member was the first to react and immediately started shooing people away.

"Everyone out, everyone out!" She pushed the team members out like driving chickens, "Don’t be a nuisance here!"

After she pushed the last team member out of the door, she turned around and winked at Gu Xing:

"God Gu, we’ll leave our captain to you!"

She made a cheering gesture before gently closing the door.

With the door shut, the room suddenly became quiet.

Shen Ruoxue clutched the corner of her blanket, her fingertips trembling slightly.

"Gu... Gu Xing, why are you here?"

Even though she had wanted to find Gu Xing before to express her gratitude,

now, seeing Gu Xing actually in front of her, she was so nervous her voice trembled.

Gu Xing calmly picked up an apple and started peeling it.

"Your injury was caused by me, isn’t it only right I come to visit?"

Shen Ruoxue hurriedly replied, "It’s... we’re all classmates, helping each other is what we should do."

Her face turned even redder, as even she didn’t believe the clumsy excuse she gave.

Seeing this, Gu Xing didn’t expose her!

"Besides coming to see you this time, there’s another matter."

After saying this, Gu Xing turned his head, his gaze falling onto the Enchanting Demon.

At this moment, the Enchanting Demon felt an increasingly ominous premonition.

"Apologize!"

Gu Xing’s voice suddenly turned sharp.

The Enchanting Demon, frightened by the sudden voice, immediately knelt to the ground.

"I’m sorry! I’m sorry!"

The Enchanting Demon repeated the words of apology, but her gaze remained fixed on Gu Xing, with no sincerity in her eyes.

Seeing this, Gu Xing shook his head, and the last trace of hesitation in his eyes vanished completely!

It’s hard to change a person’s nature!

He had been hesitating whether to use a Slave Contract on his Guardian Beast; now it seemed the decision was very right.

Shen Ruoxue, seeing the Enchanting Demon’s action, was momentarily stunned but quickly understood.

"Gu Xing, there’s no need for this; it was because of Chen Ziming’s orders at the time that she acted this way..."

From her teammates, Shen Ruoxue already knew that this Enchanting Demon now belonged to Gu Xing, meaning she would be Gu Xing’s Guardian Beast from now on.

Even if she still held resentment towards the Enchanting Demon, she should let it go now.

"Gu Xing, please let her up; it’s not her fault!"

However, Gu Xing did not listen and instead handed the peeled apple to Shen Ruoxue.

"This matter involves her, and she must apologize!"

Looking at Gu Xing’s incredibly serious eyes, Shen Ruoxue’s heart skipped a beat.

She carefully took the apple, her fingertips inadvertently touching the back of Gu Xing’s hand, immediately drawing back as if scalded.

Since being saved by Gu Xing in the Newbie Trial Space, she seemed to have developed a unique feeling towards him.

Therefore, even though she lost her Guardian Beast, she did not regret it.

However...

"Call me Master!"

Gu Xing’s sudden command froze the room instantly.

The apple in Shen Ruoxue’s hand fell to the ground with a "thud"; she looked at Gu Xing in disbelief, questioning her own hearing.

"Wasn’t your Guardian Beast killed by Chen Ziming because of me? Now I’m giving you one back!"

"No, no... I can’t, how could I accept this!"

Upon hearing Gu Xing’s words clearly, Shen Ruoxue quickly waved her hands to refuse, tears welling up in her eyes with anxiety.

She indeed had no Guardian Beast now, but...

She couldn’t accept Gu Xing’s Guardian Beast!

If she took away this Epic Level Guardian Beast, what would Gu Xing contract when he ascends to the Extraordinary Level?

"I’ve already made up my mind! Refusing is useless!"

Gu Xing showed a firm attitude, leaving Shen Ruoxue no chance to refuse.

Meanwhile, the Enchanting Demon kneeling on the ground felt cold all over.

She could accept failure, and even death, but she couldn’t accept...

Being transferred to an ordinary human!

"No... I don’t want to go with her!"

The Enchanting Demon stood up abruptly, her dark purple eyes reddened, filled with confusion.

"Gu Xing! Even if I betrayed you in the past, you shouldn’t humiliate me like this!"

"I can’t compare to that Angel, but I’m also a genuine Epic Level Guardian Beast! And yet you want to give me to..."

Watching the emotionally broken Enchanting Demon, Gu Xing chuckled coldly, his eyes icy.

"Epic Level? Is that powerful?"

"As for saying you don’t want to... do you have a choice?"

Before he finished speaking, Liu Li reached over and firmly restrained the Enchanting Demon in place.

Gu Xing slowly raised his hand, a blood-red Pentagram Array appearing in the void.

"A Slave Contract?!"

The Enchanting Demon’s pupils contracted to pinpoints, her voice twisted with fear.

She struggled desperately, dark purple magic power surging around her, yet completely unable to break free of Liu Li’s control.

Gu Xing, expressionless, pulled Shen Ruoxue’s hand over, gently slicing her forefinger.

As the drop of red blood fell into the center of the Array, the entire Contract Array burst into a brilliant red light.

"I don’t want the contract, I don’t want..."

However, Gu Xing’s actions showed no hesitation.

In the Enchanting Demon’s despairing gaze, the blood-colored runes mercilessly embedded into her brow.

[Enchanting Demon]

[Master: Shen Ruoxue]

[Status: Slave Contract]

[Talent: Epic Two Stars]

[Level: Awakening Tier Five]

[Attributes: Dark Element, Spiritual Type]

[Power: 70]

[Constitution: 72]

[Spirit: 137]

[Speed: 81]

[Skills: Desire Absorption, Enchanting Eyes]

Seeing the contract successfully completed, Gu Xing breathed a sigh of relief.

This was his first time using a Slave Contract, never expecting it to work on the first try.

However, since Shen Ruoxue was only at Awakening Tier Five, the Enchanting Demon, originally Awakening Tier Eight, had her level dropped as a result.

But once Shen Ruoxue’s level increases, the Enchanting Demon’s strength would also quickly recover.

"This..."

Shen Ruoxue finally awoke as if from a dream, looking at her palm in disbelief.

An Epic-level Guardian Beast just became her contracted beast this way?!

And with a Slave Contract enforcing absolute obedience?!

The Enchanting Demon knelt on the ground, her face full of unwillingness, but bound by the contract, she couldn’t resist.

Her dark purple eyes shimmered with tears of humiliation, yet she dared not utter a single complaint.

"Alright, the matter is done."

Gu Xing clapped his hands and stood up.

With this task completed, he could finally rest for two days.

Though Wei Yuan had granted him special permission to skip the second stage assessment, he was currently only Awakening Tier Six.

So, after careful consideration, he decided to participate in the second assessment to raise his level, planning to leave midway when necessary.

"Class monitor, if there’s nothing else, I’ll be off then."

After bidding farewell to Shen Ruoxue, Gu Xing mentioned his departure.

Watching Gu Xing turn to leave, Shen Ruoxue instinctively reached out a hand, wanting to stop him.

But ultimately, no words came out of her mouth, and she could only let her arm fall powerlessly.

"Bang!"

As soon as the door to the medbay opened, several figures, stacked like acrobats, fell in awkwardly.

They had tried to eavesdrop on the gossip of the captain and God Gu but were caught red-handed.

Shen Ruoxue’s teammates scrambled to get up, their faces adorned with awkward smiles.

Of course, Gu Xing didn’t mind any of this — he nodded slightly and left with Liu Li.

However.

As soon as he stepped out of the medbay, Gu Xing felt a chill behind him.

"Master, was that sister’s hand... soft?"

"You haven’t even given me an apple you peeled..."

...

...
