Chapter 220 Contract

"You scoundrel, how did you get in here? Didn't you say you were leaving? Could it be that you..." He Fei didn't want to see Chen Feng at all; this cunning man was far too dangerous.

"What?" Chen Feng couldn't help but tease He Fei when he saw her like this. How could this woman be so cute! He just thought that since she seemed so interested yesterday, she could come and help him hatch the beast egg he had given her.

"You'd better leave quickly, or I'll call for help. Mother, my brother, and the others are all outside!"

He Fei threatened, though it was a completely insignificant threat.

"I'm not going to eat you, why are you rushing me away? Your mother knows about us." Chen Feng looked at He Fei, who was baring her teeth and brandishing her claws, with amusement.

"What do you want to do?" He Fei asked Chen Feng, seeing that he hadn't done anything out of line, but had simply sat down at the table and crossed his arms.

"Beast egg."

"The beast egg. Didn't you say you wouldn't take it back? A gentleman's word is his bond. Besides, the beast egg belongs to me now." Whatever He Fei obtained through any means, it was hers, and she would never allow anyone to take it back.

"Yes. I'm here to incubate it." Chen Feng had already resumed his aloof demeanor, gently tapping his fingers as he spoke.

"What? You're hatching a beast egg? Haha..." He Fei burst into laughter as if she had heard a joke, then suddenly covered her mouth.

Oh dear, she almost forgot that the room wasn't soundproof. If her mother and the others found a man in her room, she'd be dead.

"Hehe... You mean you're incubating the beast egg like a hen incubating chicks?" He Fei's sparkling eyes curiously scanned Chen Feng from top to bottom, left to right. Chen Feng just chuckled and continued, "Good girl, take the beast egg out. It won't be good if you miss the time."

He Fei realized it was too late and quickly told Chen Feng to go to the back mountain. She hid the beast egg there.

After Chen Feng left, He Fei hurriedly went to the back mountain. The crimson beast egg seemed to be much darker in color than when He Fei had first obtained it, and it looked like it could catch fire at any moment.

"How do you hatch them?" He Fei was still quite curious about what Chen Feng meant by hatching beast eggs. Could he really hatch beast eggs?

Chen Feng examined the beast egg carefully, then looked up and asked, "Is there a quiet, secluded place here?"

"No." He Fei blurted out without thinking. What kind of trick is this hooligan up to now, in such a quiet and secluded place?

Seeing He Fei's expression, Chen Feng remembered his stolen kiss a few days ago. Oh no! Where had that composed girl from before gone? But he was also happy, since it only applied to him. He then flashed a smile that could charm countless women. With a casual wave of his hand, an invisible barrier appeared behind the mountain, isolating a secluded spot.

He Fei looked surprised, but inwardly she was incredibly envious. Chen Feng's martial arts skills were getting better and better. When would she be able to reach that level?

Chen Feng placed the beast egg between himself and He Fei, a fiery red flame slowly burning in his hand.

"Chen Feng, you didn't burn the beast eggs, did you?"

Chen Feng did not answer He Fei; he was focused intently on the flame in his hand.

Suddenly, He Fei felt that the temperature around her had risen, and it seemed to be getting hotter.

Soon, He Fei was drenched in sweat, while Chen Feng, on the other hand, didn't even break a sweat, let alone feel hot.

"Is this the difference between someone with high martial arts skills and a complete novice like her?" He Fei muttered to herself.

When the temperature reached 40 degrees Celsius, Chen Feng swung the flame in his hand toward the beast egg.

Strangely, the flames only engulfed the beast egg; the blanket beneath it remained completely unaffected. He Fei watched the beast egg engulfed in flames with a mixture of tension and curiosity, worried that it would be burned to ashes.

Time passed, and two hours went by. He Fei was so hot that she was soaked in sweat. If she hadn't moved away to cool herself down, she probably would have been cooked by now.

It's unfair, so unfair! Why is she burning up like a dog while Chen Feng is completely unaffected?

Suddenly, Chen Feng extinguished the flames, and the beast egg appeared unchanged.

He Fei came to the bedside and lay down to see what was going on. Just as she was about to ask something, a crack appeared on the surface of the beast egg.

The cracks multiplied, and finally, a fluffy little head timidly poked its head out.

The little guy first saw He Fei's sparkling eyes and thought they were beautiful, so he took his short legs and came to He Fei's hand.

He Fei saw the little guy clearly; it turned out to be a small red fox.

His ruby-like eyes were now looking at He Fei with excitement, and he might very well have mistaken her for his mother. This is because, according to legend, spirit beasts will consider the first person they see after birth as their mother.

It stretched out its paw and gently touched He Fei's hand, a gesture that was exceptionally affectionate.

"This is a Flame Fox, the most mysterious and noble fox in the fox clan. It must not be taken away, so you'd better form a contract with it now." The reason Chen Feng valued this beast egg so much was because he knew the strength of this spirit beast.

He had originally planned to teach her later, but his mother taught her yesterday.

That's good too. It's a good thing that He Fei has signed a contract now. Let's just consider it the first gift he gave her.

"A contract? How do we form a contract?" He Fei fell in love with the fluffy little fox at first sight. Holding it in her arms, the soft touch was simply irresistible.

Moreover, after hearing Chen Feng say that it was a very powerful spirit beast, he wanted to keep it by his side even more.

There are three types of spirit beast contracts.

The first type is a soul contract: Although the two parties to the contract coexist in life and death, the spirit beast will always follow the master as long as the master's soul remains. The second type is an equal contract: The two parties to the contract are equal in status, cannot be forced, and if one party is injured or dies, the other party will not suffer any harm.

The third type is the master-servant contract: This is a mandatory contract where the master holds the power. The two parties are not equal in status; the human is the master, and the spirit beast is the servant. If the master dies, the spirit beast also dies, but the master remains unharmed. This is the most unfair contract, which is why spirit beasts hate humans. Therefore, some spirit beasts would rather die than form a contract with a human.

Chen Feng briefly explained the spirit beast contract to He Fei. He did not suggest which contract He Fei should choose; it was entirely up to her.

He Fei pondered for a while and decided that the little fox was her first spirit beast.
