Chapter 817: Chapter 246 The Master Has Become Like This, Not Much Different from Me (Please Subscribe) _2
Cheng Guang’s lips twitched slightly, then he addressed Erlang Shen Yang Jian,
“It doesn’t have much to do with me.”
“To tell you the truth, I didn’t even know that the dim master-servant mark on Black Cub could split and land on you.”
As Cheng Guang spoke, Erlang Shen Yang Jian’s lips contorted fiercely.
It doesn’t have much to do with you?
You didn’t know??
Bullshit!!!
If you didn’t know, why would the allegiance of the master-servant mark, the recognition of the master, fall onto you…!?
Although Erlang Shen Yang Jian was internally scoffing, he was not a fool.
Regardless of whether the dim master-servant mark was the masterpiece of Cheng Guang, the Town-Nation Duke’s Heir, it was definitely related to Cheng Guang, the Town-Nation Duke’s Heir.
If not a direct relationship, then certainly an indirect one.
At that moment, he was powerless to resist and utterly unable to defy the wishes of Cheng Guang, the Town-Nation Duke’s Heir; it might be a wiser choice to comply for now.
Therefore, Erlang Shen Yang Jian did not speak any further.
Cheng Guang glanced at the silent Erlang Shen Yang Jian, and just by looking at the changes in his complexion, it was clear that Erlang Shen Yang Jian was deeply affected.
He had gone completely into shutdown mode.
Cheng Guang felt somewhat withdrawn himself.
Firstly, he had initially wanted to make amends with Erlang Shen Yang Jian.
But now, the relationship between him and Erlang Shen Yang Jian was definitely ruined.
If Erlang Shen Yang Jian could break free from the dim master-servant mark in the future, he would undoubtedly turn the knife on Cheng Guang himself.
If Erlang Shen Yang Jian remained subject to the dim master-servant mark, it wouldn’t be so bad.
Once free, Cheng Guang himself would surely suffer.
So, Cheng Guang would rather have Erlang Shen Yang Jian suffer than himself.
There was also another point.
At this time, Cheng Guang also didn’t know how he should treat Erlang Shen Yang Jian.
If he was too kind to Erlang Shen Yang Jian, it would be pointless.
A dim master-servant mark was enough to disgust Erlang Shen Yang Jian for a lifetime.
With the existence of the dim master-servant mark, no matter how kind he was to Erlang Shen Yang Jian, it wouldn’t make much difference.
Cheng Guang was acutely aware of this.
Furthermore,
if he didn’t treat Erlang Shen Yang Jian well, he had to consider Erlang Shen Yang Jian’s attitude when he finally broke free in the future.
Cheng Guang pondered and felt that the best way to handle Erlang Shen Yang Jian for now was to either kill him directly
or to make good use of him and then kill him when he was most likely to rebel.
The current problem…
was simply whether to kill Erlang Shen Yang Jian first or to use him before killing him…
Upon thinking this, Cheng Guang’s expression turned incredibly strange.
At this time, Erlang Shen Yang Jian, under Cheng Guang’s watchful gaze, also sensed the shifts in Cheng Guang’s thoughts.
No matter how strong Erlang Shen Yang Jian’s will was, when faced with life and death, it was impossible to remain so indifferently composed.
Especially since Erlang Shen Yang Jian had just awakened and had a myriad of things he wanted to do that he had yet to accomplish.
If he were to die so suffocatingly, it would be utterly unacceptable for Erlang Shen Yang Jian.
What should he do now?
Erlang Shen Yang Jian’s complexion flickered, and after struggling internally for a while, he immediately made his position clear.
“Your Excellency… Master…”
Erlang Shen Yang Jian still vehemently resisted calling Cheng Guang his master; yet, he couldn’t get over not calling him master internally either.
Thus, after struggling for a while, Erlang Shen Yang Jian chose to simply omit the address in his speech.
“This incident must be an accident.”
“If you… If you can remove this dim master-servant mark from both myself and the Roaring Celestial Dog, I can coexist peacefully with you.”
“And I will owe you a favor.”
Erlang Shen Yang Jian spoke to Cheng Guang with a slightly strained tone.
He, despite his desires to place himself on the same footing as Cheng Guang, was constantly reminded by the faintly dark master-servant mark within his heart, within his Primordial Spirit.
He uncontrollably felt the urge to bow his head when facing Cheng Guang.
Cheng Guang shook his head, “It won’t do.”
Erlang Shen, Yang Jian’s fingers clenched tightly in an instant, and veins bulged in his forehead from the effort to suppress the emotions raging inside him.
Gradually, his fingers relaxed.
“Why not?”
Erlang Shen, Yang Jian expressed his confusion.
Cheng Guang found this difficult to explain.
The faintly dark master-servant mark etched into Heizai Yuanshen was directly implanted by the system.
Although Cheng Guang had the power to control Black Cub, he truly lacked the ability to remove it.
Or rather,
the system, to protect Cheng Guang from self-sabotage,
made it so that until his cultivation strength surpassed that of Black Cub, the faintly dark master-servant mark would remain unremovable.
To dispel it, either Black Cub would have to forcefully break through, or Cheng Guang’s cultivation would have to become stronger than that of Black Cub, stronger than Erlang Shen, Yang Jian, for it to be undone.
Erlang Shen, Yang Jian was unaware of Cheng Guang’s hidden circumstances and the existence of the system.

Seeing Cheng Guang’s silence, Erlang Shen, Yang Jian took it as an acknowledgment that Cheng Guang had no intention to remove the faintly dark master-servant mark.
Despite his immense anger, Erlang Shen, Yang Jian was completely powerless against Cheng Guang, the Town-Nation Duke’s Heir.
His fingers tightened then relaxed again.
Finally, he exhaled helplessly.
As if resigned to his fate,
“Since that is the case, then this lord might as well stay under your command for a while.”
“If there is anything you wish me to do, just command me.”
At that moment, Erlang Shen, Yang Jian’s demeanor suddenly became very submissive,
which seemed strikingly forced and awkward.
Cheng Guang was also aware of Erlang Shen, Yang Jian’s ulterior motive.
Erlang Shen, Yang Jian’s thoughts were simple: having just awakened with weak cultivation strength, he was powerless against the bondage of the faintly dark master-servant mark.
Rather than being obstinate and resisting Cheng Guang at this moment only to suffer humiliation and torment, it was better to accept his situation meekly for the time being.
In Erlang Shen, Yang Jian’s eyes,
there must be reasons as to why Cheng Guang—or perhaps the entity behind Cheng Guang—expended so much effort, surely not just to imprint on his Primordial Spirit the faintly dark master-servant mark.
They must need him to carry out certain tasks.
Erlang Shen, Yang Jian believed that given time, this faintly dark master-servant mark could never truly bind him.
His current submission was only a temporary expedient.
Once he would have shattered the master-servant mark in the future, all the humiliation suffered would be repaid in full by Cheng Guang.
Just thinking about this alleviated some of Erlang Shen, Yang Jian’s indignant emotions.
Cheng Guang knew what Erlang Shen, Yang Jian was thinking; he also knew that unless his own power completely overwhelmed Erlang Shen, Yang Jian, relying solely on a faintly dark master-servant mark to control him was as naive as talking to a delusional man.
But on the other hand,
Erlang Shen, Yang Jian was different from Black Cub.
Black Cub, though being Hell’s Demon Emperor, had some pride, but being in a cycle of reincarnation, his cultivation strength was particularly weak.
He was not even worth mentioning.
In contrast to Erlang Shen, Yang Jian.
Erlang Shen, Yang Jian was full of pride, and he had just awakened to find himself bound by a master-servant mark.
Such an affair, for anyone, would be intolerable.
Previously, Dongfang Chiguo Tianwang would rather die than be controlled by Charm Eyes.
If it weren’t for the constraints and protections of heavenly laws within Dongfang Chiguo Tianwang’s Primordial Spirit,
Cheng Guang would have long controlled him with Charm Eyes.
