Cultivation Pet Shop

Lin Fan felt a chill run down his back and there was the same impulse that he felt when he had seen Chu Ting about to be assaulted.

However, this time the impulse almost completely took over his mind and filled him with this strange sense of rage that made him want to absolutely rip the Leo puppet from piece to piece.

Still, he kept his mind and was barely able to keep that impulse in check.

To do so, he had to dig his nails into his palms, drawing blood that ran down his hand and dripped onto the ground drop by drop.

He was even biting his lips so hard that there were streams of blood that came out of the sides of his mouth.

The Leo puppet acted like it saw none of that as it continued to offer the dagger to Lin Fan.

Lin Fan just stared right at the puppet for a few seconds before reaching out to take the dagger. But the moment that he did take the dagger, he immediately threw it to the side without any hesitation and said, "No, I won't do it."

The Leo puppet didn't act surprised, it just went over to the dagger to pick it up before heading towards the smaller cage.

Along the way, he didn't forget to pause for a second to turn to Lin Fan to say, "If you won't do it, then I'll do it myself. You have to see that there are consequences to your action and if you do not have determination, you will lose everything."

Once again, Angela wanted to step out, but Momonga grabbed her and pulled her back again, shaking his head when she turned back to look at him.

While it was cruel, this was a lesson that Lin Fan did have to learn. This was something that Momonga already knew after what had happened earlier.

Lin Fan hesitated as he watched the Leo puppet move towards the smaller cage. The impulse inside him continued to hit his mind, but his mind also stayed rational as he tried to think this over. This was a test, so there had to be a way to pass this test while being able to stop this.

But no matter how he thought it over, he still couldn't find the answer.

Lin Fan had no choice but to turn over to Momonga and Angela and he saw that they were just standing there watching.

He tried to get them to help with the look in his eyes, but they wouldn't move at all.

p Actually, Angela had wanted to help the entire time since what the Leo puppet had been doing had struck a chord with her heart. However, Momonga had been using his spiritual sense to secretly talk to her the entire time, making sure that she didn't do anything.

The only thing that could stop Angela was if it was for Lin Fan's good and this was indeed for Lin Fan's good.

Momonga had noticed that Lin Fan was still missing one crucial thing and this was the perfect chance to help him gain this one thing.

Lin Fan knew that they weren't acting for some reason and that made him fall into deeper thought. Was the right course of action not to act at all here?

But to tell him to watch something like the senseless slaughter of an innocent child, even if it was just a beast was not something that he could do.

His mind continued to tell him to not act and watch, but that impulse deep down continued to grow stronger and stronger inside. It continued to attack his rationality, but then he finally came to an epiphany.

What was the point of hesitating now?

Even if he couldn't get this inheritance, there were still many other things that he could have with his system, so why was there a point in hesitating?

He found that he had been only thinking about building power to protect what was important to him, but if he were to lose his character along the way, then what was the point?

If he was to give up on himself to become more powerful, there was no point in this second life of his. He had made that promise back in the Mirror of Regret and if he were to go against it now, he would be not only letting himself down, he would be letting someone else down.

So without any further hesitation, Lin Fan immediately went forward to stand in front of the cage with a white dagger in his hand. He stood there as he said in a determined voice, "I won't let you do this."

The Leo puppet stopped moving as he looked at Lin Fan and said, "Move, it will die one way or another. There is nothing you can do to stop this."

Lin Fan just stood there without taking a single step back as he said, "No."

The Leo puppet continued, "If you move now, I'll let you pass the test. That will at least show that you have the determination to see something through to the end."

Lin Fan had already thought things through, so he wouldn't be moved by this. He just stood there as he said, "You have to get through my dead body first if you want to kill this child."

The Leo puppet suddenly revealed a vicious look as he said, "You really think just you can stop me? You overestimate yourself. You're nothing special and there's plenty of others out there just as talented as you. I have no qualms with killing you where you stand."

Still Lin Fan didn't move as he said, "Come then." After saying this, he raised his dagger and turned it into the zweihander while summoning out all his pets.

If he was going to do this, he would be going all out.

If he combined the seven laws, there was a chance that he would survive, but if he didn't go against the Ruler with his full power, it would be certain death. He was just praying that the laws of the Ruler inside this puppet had weakened enough that he would be able to do this since there were plenty of cultivation realms between the two of them.

The Leo puppet just shook its head before raising the dagger in its hand, gathering its earth laws around it, creating a casing of rock around that dagger.

Lin Fan had been gathering the energy of his pets around him, fusing it with the laws that he had absorbed, but this process was going slowly.

These were seven different laws all with different properties, to force them all into a single point was definitely difficult and required time, but it was made much easier since Lin Fan had the suction force that could force it all into a single point.

However, Lin Fan didn't have time to do so as the Leo puppet had disappeared from right in front of him. When it reappeared again, he already saw the tip of the dagger right in front of his eyes, quickly approaching.

In truth, Lin Fan also had another flaw which was that he was getting too confident with himself.

His cultivation had been increasing too quickly, which had allowed him to defeat one powerful enemy after another, giving him a misconception of his own power. It should be known that all the enemies he had faced were only experts of a lower realm, people who had the lowest level of talent and could never make it off these lower realms. He might have been talented, but compared to those that were at the peak of the universe, he was still far from being able to compare.

As the dagger that symbolized his death approached, Lin Fan did feel regret, but he didn't regret the choice that he had made. If he survived this ordeal, he would definitely live his life differently from now on.

It had completely slipped his mind that he was currently in a cultivation realm and that even if he died, he would be revived by the system. He had been completely caught up in the situation and it had slipped his mind.

This was one of the main reasons why Momonga and Angela were able to continue watching from the side without too much worry.

But none of that mattered since the dagger stopped right before piercing into Lin Fan's skull.

Lin Fan just felt the pressure from the dagger, but it didn't injure him at all. However, he could tell from that pressure that with the force the dagger had just been stabbed at, it would have most definitely killed him.

The Leo puppet just stood there for a few seconds before suddenly pulling the dagger back and giving a clap while revealing a faint smile.

After a few seconds of this, the Leo puppet finally said, "Congratulations on passing this final trial, you have earned the rights to the inheritance of this realm."

Lin Fan was completely confused as he stared at the Leo puppet in a daze.

The Leo puppet could see that Lin Fan was confused, so it said, "It's very simple, while this is a test of determination, this was also a test of compassion."

Lin Fan still said in a confused voice, "Compassion?"

The Leo puppet nodded, "Yes, compassion might not seem important to most people, but it is a very important trait to have as well. When you become a true expert, sometimes you need to know how to show compassion because from true compassion comes true character."

Then after a pause, he continued, "And we need someone with true compassion to inherit the mission of this realm…"
