With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods

Chapter 582 Inheritance (45)

But right before he took his hand, Lin Fan suddenly stopped reaching out towards it.

It was as if he felt that there was something off.

When Feng Yu saw this, he couldn't help slightly knitting his brows.

Feng Yu slowly looked up at Lin Fan, though he didn't move his hand forward a single centimeter. As he looked at him, he said with this slight frown on his face, "Is something wrong?"

Lin Fan just calmly looked at Feng Yu and said, "Why are you so insistent on shaking my hand? This feels a bit off."

Feng Yu didn't seem to panic at all when he heard this.

Instead, he just revealed a faint smile when he heard this and looked right at Lin Fan as he said, "Is that all?"

Lin Fan couldn't help being taken aback by just how casual Feng Yu was being about this. It almost seemed like he really didn't care if he shook his hand or not, but Lin Fan wouldn't believe that.

After all, he had already done all of this in an attempt to shake his hand.

He didn't believe that he would go back on it now.

Feng Yu gave a shrug before saying, "I was planning on passing the control of the Minor World over to you with this handshake. My soul fragment isn't as strong as it was before, so the only way that I could do it was with physical contact like this."

Then with a sigh, he said, "But if you're not willing, then there's nothing that I can do."

After saying this, Feng Yu slowly pulled his hand away as if he was about to give up on this idea.

As he pulled his hand away, he added, "I wanted to give you my inheritance, but since you're not willing to take it, then there's nothing that I can do. Even though you passed the trial, I can't do anything if you're not willing to accept what I give you."

The way that he said this, it really seemed like he was regretful about not being able to pass down his inheritance.

Lin Fan couldn't help knitting his brows as he looked at Feng Yu.

But in the end, he still said, "Alright, wait. I'll shake your hand."

Feng Yu narrowed his eyes to look at Lin Fan before saying, "What makes you think that I still want to give you my inheritance when you've acted this way? You've declined to accept it, so why do you think that I'll still give it to you?"

Lin Fan calmly looked back at him and said, "If you don't give it to me, who will you give it to? How long will you be able to keep your soul fragment together? Will you last until another person comes, another person that can clear these trials of yours?"

Feng Yu kept looking at Lin Fan with the same narrowed eyes before suddenly revealing a smile and saying, "Very good, it seems that I wasn't wrong about you."

Feng Yu stopped pulling his hand backwards and lifted it up in front of him again before saying, "If you want it, then take my hand. If not, then there's nothing else for us to talk about."

The way that he said this, it seemed like he was leaving everything up to Lin Fan.

But in reality, he was just using this final offer as a kind of pressure on Lin Fan.

Feng Yu knew that in front of this large enticement, Lin Fan wouldn't be able to hold himself back. So it was just a matter of time before Lin Fan took his hand.

Lin Fan hesitated for a bit, looking down at Feng Yu's hand.

But after a while, he gave a sigh and said, "Alright, I'll shake your hand."

Then he looked at Feng Yu with a sharp gaze and added, "I hope that what you've said is the truth. If this is another prank…"

Feng Yu just smiled without saying a thing, but there was a serious look in his eyes.

Lin Fan stepped forward again and reached his hand up to take Feng Yu's hand.

Feng Yu had a calm smile on his face, but if one looked into his eyes closely, they would see the excitement that was filling them.

Lin Fan was right about to take Feng Yu's hand before…he suddenly pulled out a sword with his other hand and stabbed Feng Yu in the stomach.

Feng Yu's eyes opened wide in shock when this happened.

He looked at Lin Fan with disbelief before saying, "Do you know what you're doing?"

Lin Fan just gave a nod and said, "Yes, I do."

Without any hesitation, he gripped the hilt of the sword with both of his hands and then suddenly slashed down with it. The sword cut right through Feng Yu's chest and ripped him in half.

There was only a small part of Feng Yu's chest that was still attaching the top and bottom half, or else he would have been cut in half by this slash.

Lin Fan then jumped back and waited to see what would happen.

Feng Yu raised his hand as if he wanted to do something, but then there seemed to be some kind of glow that appeared around it.

Lin Fan narrowed his eyes to look at this glow.

He didn't look at it because he thought that it was dangerous, he looked at it with a strange look since it seemed like it was suppressing Feng Yu. Instead of being a power controlled by Feng Yu, it was as if this glow was stopping Feng Yu from doing anything.

Feng Yu struggled all he could, but it didn't seem like he could break out of the influence that the glow had on him.

All he could do was glare at Lin Fan as he said, "How? How did you know?"

Lin Fan just calmly swung the sword to get rid of the black liquid that was on it before saying, "When you act this suspicious, I think anyone would see through it."

Feng Yu had an ugly expression on his face as he looked at Lin Fan before saying, "So close…I was so close! I was almost free from this place!"

Lin Fan revealed a bitter smile when he heard this.

The way that Feng Yu was acting was just like the web novels of Lin Fan's previous world. It was what soul fragments of dead experts would say when they wanted to take over the bodies of the ones that they had brought into their 'inheritance'.

But Lin Fan knew that it was something much more than that.

After all, when he had looked at Feng Yu just now, his Appraisal Eyes had told him that this Feng Yu was a fake.

That was why he had played along with Feng Yu during all of this, acting the way that Feng Yu had expected him to act. He had been pretending to go along with everything Feng Yu did to get him to drop his guard.

The moment that people were most vulnerable was when they thought victory was at hand.

It was at that moment that they dropped their guard since they believed that they had already won.

They would never expect someone to say…stab them with a sword like Lin Fan did.

The Feng Yu on the ground seemed to be melting away into liquid after being cut in half like this. It was like he wasn't able to keep his form anymore…but then again, this wasn't his form in the first place.

From what he had seen earlier with the Appraisal Eyes, Lin Fan knew that this Feng Yu was something called a Mimic Slime. It had the ability to take the form of another creature as long as they made contact with it before.

That was why it had been trying to touch him the entire time.

It most likely wanted to take Lin Fan's form.

As well, the story that it heard from him before, it would use that to build the basis of a new memory and take over Lin Fan's life.

Lin Fan was just very confused why this was all happening, but he didn't dare let his guard down for even a second after cutting this Feng Yu down.

After it had completely deformed, the slime on the ground tried to pounce at Lin Fan.

However, before it could go forward, there was a barrier that appeared in front of it that blocked it from moving.

The Mimic Slime roared out, "It's you! Why are you getting in my way again!"

A familiar voice rang out and said, "It's time for you to go. You have served your purpose, so there's no need to keep you around anymore. After all, you are quite the dangerous thing."

When Lin Fan heard this, he turned in the direction that voice was coming from to see another Feng Yu standing there.

But this time, when he tried to use his Appraisal Eyes, he felt the pain coming from them.

It seemed like this one was the real thing…

That was why he hadn't been using his Appraisal Eyes this entire time, but that had almost caused him to be devoured by this Mimic Slime…

Feng Yu looked at him with a smile and said, "Congratulations on passing my final trial. I never expected anyone to pass this final trial, but it really is a pleasant surprise when someone does."

Then he suddenly leaned in and asked, "How did you do it? How did you see through its disguise?"
