Chapter 806

"Come on! Aren't you also a Blood Realm master Let's have a friendly match!" Felix grinned, finding this old man more interesting than the previous ones sent after him.

To his surprise, the old man frantically waved his hands after regaining consciousness. He rambled, "No, no. I won't fight you! Everyone knows you can fight above your level. Even though we're in the same realm, if we fight, I'm dead for sure." Felix scoffed. "As if not fighting would mean you're leaving here alive!"

Suddenly, the old man stood straight and raised his right hand to the sky with a solemn Suddenly, the old man stood straight and expression. "I, Selmer Zink, swear to heaven that from this moment on, I quit Elders' Council and will follow Felix Zeller's lead. May htning strike me if I break this oath!"

What the hell? Felix was dumbfounded,

He blurted out, "Are you pulling my leg?"

g if things could really be this simple.

Seeing Felix's irritation, Selmer spoke faster, "Sir, trust me. I've truly left Elders' Council. The Council has no hold over anyone above Blood Realm-you can leave whenever you want if you dare.

"We joined because of their, overwhelming power. At that level of strength, they don't need other methods to control you-or perhaps they're just above such tactics. Check for yourself if you don't believe me."

Felix actually checked Selmer's pulse when he offered his arm and found he was telling the truth. There was indeed nothing unusual about his body.

"Why should I keep you around?" Felix asked.

Selmer gave a bitter laugh. "From our intelligence, besides those elusive senior apprentices, you've always worked alone. Having a powerful fighter like me at your disposal would save you time, right? "You can control me however you want. I'm willing."

What choice did he have? If not this way, Felix would kill him, so he might as well try survive. Before coming, he had assumed Felix was mid-Blood Realm at most, and as a Blood Realm master two minor realms higher, killing him would not be an issue. However, this encounter completely upended those assumptions.

Felix relented, "Fine. I'll take you for now. But if Elders' Council sends someone to kill you as a traitor, don't expect me to protect you. If you can't handle that, you might as well be dead."

Selmer sighed in relief-his life was saved.

Felix added, "This needle is called the Soul Sealing Needle. From now on, you'll only answer to me."

The Soul Sealing Needle was a technique Felix could only use after refining the Dragonspine from Obsidian Auction. It could put the target's life under his complete control, a very effective manipulation method.

"Feel that?" With just a slight movement after the needle was in place, Selmer felt indescribable pain seeming to come from deep within his soul.

"I feel it! Please stop!" Selmer begged.

Felix patted Selmer's shoulder with a wicked smile. "Are there any other cowards like you in Elders' Council? Introduce them to me."

With the Soul Sealing Needle, he would welcome anyone, and Selmer's appearance had given him the idea of building his own power base.

As Selmer was still recovering from the pain, he suddenly sensed something and looked up with a dazed expression. He mumbled, "Is that... the moon falling?"
