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.

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.
