"So, I need you to come with me to the Dark Canyon to help me find the Demon Soul Orb, but I'm afraid you might be a threat to me."

"Now, let's sign a contract! Once you sign a contract with me, I can use you with complete peace of mind!"

"At the same time, I will trust you and compensate you! After signing the contract, you will be a true member of our Bashan family!"

Ba Shanyu stared intently at Ye Feng, her expression resolute.

If Ye Feng disagrees now, she will probably attack him immediately!

After a moment's thought, Ye Feng asked, "Young Master, it's only natural that you don't trust me, and I understand that. But can you tell me what kind of contract you wish to sign with me?"

"Blood Pact of the Inner Demon!"

"The Heart Demon Blood Pact is the most restrictive contract in the Nine Netherworld. Only after breaking through to the Divine Travel Realm can one break free from the contract's shackles through their own strength."

"Now, you shall sign the Blood Pact of the Heart Demon with me!"

As soon as Ba Shanyu finished speaking, he raised his right hand and gestured for Ye Feng to extend his right hand as well.

Ye Feng hesitated for a moment before extending his right hand to Ba Shan Yu.

Ba Shanyu scratched his index finger with his thumbnail, and bright red blood immediately appeared on the index finger.

Seeing this, Ye Feng did as instructed.

The next moment, Ba Shanyu placed his index finger on Ye Feng's index finger.

Their blood immediately mingled together!

"I, Ba Shanyu, swear in the name of the Blood Pact of the Heart Demon that from this day forward, Ye Feng will be my subordinate. I will treat him with utmost sincerity and will never betray him! If I break this oath, may the Heart Demon turn against me and I die!"

Ye Feng continued, "I, Ye Feng, swear in the name of the Blood Pact of the Heart Demon that from this day forward, Ba Shan Yu will be my young master, and I will never betray him in this lifetime! If I break this oath, may the Heart Demon turn against me and I die!"

As the two finished speaking, the drop of blood that had been mixed on Ye Feng and Ba Shan Yu's fingers emitted a dazzling red light.

The next moment, illusory crimson chains shot out from their touching fingertips, spreading along their arms and throughout their bodies!

Chains wrapped around Ye Feng and Ba Shan Yu's bodies, binding every part of their bodies!

A moment later, the chains finally disappeared, as if they had never been there at all.

"Alright, mission accomplished."

Ba Shanyu withdrew his right hand and said with a smile.

Night Breeze nodded and withdrew his right hand.

"From now on, I can trust you unconditionally. No matter who you were before, no matter where you come from, you will be my follower from now on," Ba Shanyu said with a smile.

"I am deeply grateful for the young master's trust in me," Ye Feng said.

We have arrived at the Bashan family mansion.

Bashan rain and night wind emerged from the sedan chair together.

Upon entering the courtyard, Ba Shanyu summoned all the servants and members of the Ba Shan family.

"Yu'er, what are you doing?" Bashan Tuo asked in confusion.

Ba Shanyu did not answer, but instead commanded Ye Feng, "Ye Feng, receive the title!"

Hearing the words "conferred a title," Ye Feng was quite surprised.

In the Nine Netherworld, only the superior race is qualified to bestow titles upon the inferior and middle races, and bestowing titles is actually a way to elevate the rank of the inferior and middle races.

This information was all learned by Ye Feng from the books in the library.

At that moment, Ye Feng did not hesitate and immediately bowed in respect.

In front of everyone, Ba Shanyu announced: "From now on, Ye Feng will be promoted from a lower clan to an upper clan and become one of the core members of our Ba Shan family!"

Upon hearing this, all the servants of the Bashan family were utterly shocked.

The yellow bird standing in the crowd was also extremely shocked.

"Yu'er, you're being ridiculous!"

Bashan Tuo said angrily, and strode up to Bashan Yu.

“Father, I’m not being silly. You don’t know what happened tonight. I’ll explain it to you in detail later,” Ba Shanyu said with a smile.

Hearing Ba Shanyu say this, Ba Shantuo's anger subsided somewhat, but a deep sense of doubt arose within him.

Moreover, since Ba Shanyu has already done so, if he were to stop him in front of so many people, it would greatly damage Ba Shanyu's prestige.

Bashan Yu is not only his biological daughter, but also the next head of the Bashan family whom he has chosen.

So after weighing the options, Bashan Tuo took two steps back and said nothing more.

The hundreds of servants of the Bashan family below, witnessing this scene, knew that Ye Feng's promotion to the upper class was a foregone conclusion.

Some of them were envious, some were jealous, and their expressions varied.

"Aren't you going to bow?" Ba Shanyu shouted.

The hundreds of servants then knelt down together, facing the night wind.

"Congratulations, Mr. Ye, on your promotion to the Upper Clan!"

The orderly sounds resounded throughout the entire Bashan family mansion, causing the paper windows of the mansion to tremble.

Night Breeze returned to her room.

The sparrow immediately ran over, chattering and asking, "Mr. Ye, how did you suddenly get promoted to a high-ranking clan? What did you do? Did the young master of Bashan take a liking to you and want you to be his son-in-law?"

A strange look appeared on Ye Feng's face.

I never expected that little girl Huang Que would have such a vivid imagination.

Just as Ye Feng was about to explain, a series of loud knocks suddenly sounded on the door.

Ye Feng walked over and opened the door, immediately seeing a group of maids standing in the hallway outside, and the person leading them was none other than Butler Luo!

Butler Luo bowed respectfully to Ye Feng and said, "Mr. Ye, you are now a member of the upper class and can no longer stay in the servants' rooms. Please come with me; I have arranged new accommodations for you."

"It seems we'll have to live separately," Ye Feng said with a smile, looking at Huang Que.

A deep sense of disappointment and melancholy appeared on Huang Que's face.

Although she spent very little time with Ye Feng, he had saved her and protected her.

Now that the night breeze is leaving, the yellow sparrow feels truly reluctant to let it go.

But now she could only force a smile and say against her will, "You are already from an upper class, so it is only natural for you to go to a better environment. I should be congratulating you."

Seeing that Huang Que was not being sincere, Butler Luo said, "Mr. Ye, as a member of an upper-class family, you have the right to choose maids to serve you personally. If you have this idea, you can let Huang Que be your maid."

The yellow sparrow was overjoyed and looked at the night wind with anticipation.

Night Breeze thought for a moment and nodded, "Alright then, let's do it this way."

The yellow sparrow was so excited that its face turned red. It quickly came to Ye Feng's side and followed him closely.

Afterwards, Ye Feng followed Butler Luo to a superior private room.

Moreover, Butler Luo brought new clothes and accessories, urging Ye Feng to change into them.

It has to be said that the saying "clothes make the man" is absolutely true. After changing into silk clothes and wearing those accessories, Ye Feng suddenly had a dashing and debonair air about him, as if he had become a completely different person.
