Chapter 584 Inheritance (47)
Lin Fan just gave a slow nod in response, but it was clear that he wasn't committing to anything.
Feng Yu didn't mind when he saw this since he knew this was just how it was.
Unless it was certain, no one could get someone to do something like take revenge.
So this was already as good of a response as he would get.
Once that was over, Feng Yu turned his attention back to the Mimic Slime that he had trapped.
He had said earlier that he was going to deal with this Mimic Slime before his soul fragment faded, so he was planning on doing it now.
The Mimic Slime had been trying to stay as quiet as it could, but it seemed that this didn't work when it saw Feng Yu looking at it. It wanted to stall for time so that Feng Yu would disappear and then it could break free, but that didn't seem to be the case.
So all it could do was…beg.
"Just let me go! It's already been this long, I promise that I won't hurt anyone! I just want to live in peace now!"
The Mimic Slime did all that it could to pretend to be helpless, but Feng Yu's expression didn't change at all as he looked at it.
With a derisive smile, he said, "Didn't you say all of that years ago when I found you? Can't you come up with anything new?"
The Mimic Slime fell silent when it heard this, but then it said, "It's the truth! I've had all this time to reflect!"
Feng Yu just shook his head and said, "It's a shame that you really didn't learn to repent. I had wanted to help you learn about humans in the past, but now it seems like that was all a waste of time. It seems that I have no choice but to…"
As he was saying this, he raised his other hand and there was a faint glow that gathered around it.
Although the glow was faint, the aura that came from it was anything but faint.
It was a powerful aura that gave Lin Fan a glimpse into what Feng Yu's real realm was.

Feng Yu was caught off guard when he heard this before turning to Lin Fan to say, "What are you thinking? This thing doesn't have any human emotions and can only lie and destroy. If I don't take care of this thing and it's released into the world, it will be a disaster."
Lin Fan could see that based on the way that the Mimic Slime acted.
There wasn't a single trace of remorse or atonement that was in its voice when it said all of this, but Lin Fan still wanted to do something.
That was because he had something that was beyond anything in this world.
It was the power given to him by a god, so he believed that there was nothing in this world that could resist it.
Lin Fan walked forward until he was in front of the Mimic Slime and said, "Just give me a few minutes with it to try something. If it doesn't work, then you can destroy it."
The Mimic Slime seemed to tremble when it heard this.
And at the same time…there was a notification that appeared in front of Lin Fan's face that made him reveal a faint smile.
Feng Yu looked at Lin Fan with a strange look, but in the end, he said with a sigh, "Alright, just a few minutes. That's how long this soul fragment will last, so that's how long you'll get. Regardless of whether you succeed or not, I will destroy this thing when my soul fragment is about to fade."
Lin Fan gave a nod of agreement before turning to look at the Mimic Slime.
With a taunting smile on his face, he said, "Well, you heard him. That's how long you have to show that you've had a change of heart. So how about it? Will you show us that there's a reason why we should spare you?"
The Mimic Slime trembled once more when it heard this and there was another notification that popped up.
After a few seconds of silence, the Mimic Slime once again started to beg for its life without really meaning it.
Naturally, Lin Fan just ignored it when it pleaded without any emotions or regret.
Lin Fan just stood there with a blank stare on his face as if he didn't care what would happen to the Mimic Slime if it wasn't able to convince him to let it go.
When the Mimic Slime saw the way that Lin Fan looked at it, it realized that it might really be in trouble this time.
As such…there was another notification that appeared in front of Lin Fan's face.
But he still maintained the same poker face as before.
The more time that passed and the more that the Mimic Slime begged, the more desperate it became when it saw that nothing it did had any effect. It was as if Lin Fan was completely immune to anything that it did…
It started to feel more and more panic from this as it felt the pleas that it made didn't have any effect.
It started to feel like the shadow of death was approaching.
Feng Yu had been calmly watching this with the same glow around his hand.
He didn't understand what Lin Fan was doing at all.
At first, it seemed like Lin Fan had some kind of plan with the way that he was putting pressure on the Mimic Slime. But now…it almost seemed like he was just taunting the Mimic Slime and just having fun putting it in a corner like this.
Feng Yu didn't judge Lin Fan, but he felt that this might have been a bit too much.
Still, he didn't say anything as he waited to see what Lin Fan would do.
That is until he felt that he was running out of time. He could feel that his soul fragment was about to collapse, so he couldn't just let Lin Fan do what he was doing anymore.
If he didn't take care of the Mimic Slime before his soul fragment disappeared, then there wouldn't be anything that could stop it. He couldn't allow that to happen since he was the one that had trapped it here in the first place.
If he didn't take responsibility for his actions, then he wouldn't be able to rest in peace.
So Feng Yu came forward and said, "I don't know what you were trying to do, but it's time. My soul fragment can't maintain itself for much longer, so I need to take care of this before anything happens."
Lin Fan knitted his brows a bit when he heard this, but he didn't go against Feng Yu.
That was because he had already given the Mimic Slime a chance.
He had seen many notifications appear, but there wasn't the one that he was looking for.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe had been waiting for the final notification that would allow him to finish this, but it never came regardless of how high the Mimic Slime's affection went. It seemed that this Mimic Slime really was hard to tame…
Was it because it was resisting it or was it because its cultivation was too high?
Regardless, there wasn't anything that Lin Fan could do if it refused to work with him.
If it refused to be tamed by him, then it wasn't as if Lin Fan could just let this Mimic Slime go.
This was a powerful creature that even Feng Yu was wary of, so it was impossible for him to control it once Feng Yu was gone. Once Feng Yu's soul fragment disappeared, then it would mean that this Mimic Slime would be free to go on a rampage.
As for who it would rampage against…
It wasn't hard to figure out.
Lin Fan didn't stop Feng Yu and just moved out of the way for Feng Yu to do what he needed to do. As he moved away, he looked at the Mimic Slime one last time and said, "I gave you a chance, but you didn't take it. You can't blame me."
After that, he walked away without even looking back once.
The Mimic Slime once again trembled and there was another notification that appeared, but it still wasn't the one that Lin Fan was looking for.
Feng Yu raised his glowing hand and said, "This should have been done a long time ago. It was my fault for being naive back then, but I won't let myself be naive this time."
The Mimic Slime was fully shaking now as it felt the hand of death reaching out towards it.
Finally, with no other choice, the Mimic Slime shouted, "I'll yield! I'll listen to any orders you have! I'll give you my life! Just let me live!"
It was only then that Lin Fan saw the final notification that he was looking for…or rather the final two notifications.
Once he saw these, he immediately turned back around and stood in between Feng Yu and the Mimic Slime.
Feng Yu deeply knitted his brows when he saw this before saying, "Don't be fooled, you can't trust this thing."
Lin Fan shook his head and said, "I have my own ways."
Then without waiting for a response from Feng Yu, he turned around to look at the Mimic Slime and thought, "Yes."
