Douluo Continent, a world-sharing system, but only one.

Chapter 58: Improved Version of "Blood Pact"

Wang Dong'er was stunned and looked down at her chest.

One end of the golden chain dimmed rapidly after it pierced her chest, as if it had merged into her body and disappeared without a trace.

She touched her chest and patted it. Apart from its softness, she didn't notice anything unusual. Her body was still the same body, her soul power was still the same soul power, and everything was exactly the same as before.

However, there seems to be an inexplicable feeling about it?

She couldn't help but look at Jiang Ci'an: "What is this?"

"..." Jiang Ci'an sighed, "Isn't it a bit late for you to ask now?"

Wang Dong'er blinked, her gaze shifting guiltily to the side:

"I thought it was just a regular contract or something..."

"Does this mean we can just sign any ordinary contract?"

Wang Dong'er immediately felt even more guilty, and her body shrank back unconsciously.

Jiang Ci'an sighed again as he looked at Wang Dong'er.

Well, you could say he was a bit hasty.

He forgot that this world does not have a systematic and widely recognized contract system like the one in the world of Divine Throne.

In the Douluo Continent, the concept of a contract is just a paper contract between merchants for most people. There is no such thing as soul binding, equal sharing, or master-servant contract.

Wang Dong'er didn't know what he had taken out, so naturally she wasn't as wary or cautious as he had expected.

It could be said that he didn't explain it clearly.

"This is a special contract that I developed recently." Jiang Ci'an's tone softened a bit. "You can think of it as a special self-created soul skill."

"The contract you just signed is a special version that I created after many modifications, based on a contract called 'Blood Pact' as a template."

Wang Dong'er blinked and grasped the key words:

"A blood pact?"

Jiang Ci'an nodded and explained:

"The so-called 'blood pact' is an extremely special and unequal master-servant contract. Once signed, the servant's life and death are completely controlled by the master."

He paused, looked into Wang Dong'er's eyes, and continued speaking slowly.

"To be specific, if I die, you will die with me; if you die, it will have no effect on me."

"At the same time, you cannot betray me and will remain absolutely loyal. I can sense your location and status anytime, anywhere, and manipulate your behavior and consciousness at will."

"In other words, once you sign this, you're basically in my hands for life."

Wang Dong'er blinked.

Blinked again.

Her blue-pink eyes trembled slightly, and her throat bobbed involuntarily.

"No, no way?"

Her voice sounded a little weak.

However, Jiang Ci'an remained silent, simply watching her quietly, as if pondering how to control her next.

Looking into those eyes, Wang Dong'er's gaze grew increasingly uncertain.

No, could it really be one of those strange, fictional stories where once you sign your name, you can't disobey the other person's orders, and even if you're conscious, your body will uncontrollably obey them...

What would this guy ask her to do?

wrong!

This guy will definitely let her do it!

What about my future...?

But, that would be unfair to Xiao Xiao!

What if Xiao Xiao finds out? Should we keep it a secret? Secretly? Can we really keep it a secret? Knowing Xiao Xiao's personality, she probably won't blame this guy, but what about her?

In an instant, countless chaotic images flashed through Wang Dong'er's mind. Her blue and pink eyes shone with light, and her expression shifted back and forth between struggle and resignation.

Jiang Ci'an couldn't help but smile at her inner monologue. "Alright, actually..."

The words had barely begun when Wang Dong'er interrupted her through gritted teeth, her voice resolute: "At least not with Xiao Xiao!"

"..."

Hearing this seemingly random sentence, Jiang Ci'an blinked, his expression subtly changing.

What is this guy saying?

Wang Dong'er paused, feeling Jiang Ci'an's gaze, her blue and pink eyes flickered, and her gaze drifted guiltily to the side.

But in an instant, she turned her gaze back to Jiang Ci'an, her eyes filled with a hint of grievance, her voice soft and sweet, carrying a resentment that made her seem easy to bully.

"It's all your fault! What are we going to do now?!"

Jiang Ci'an looked at the pitiful-looking white goose in front of him, his lips moved, and he chuckled softly.

"It's good that you knew you acted impulsively. Don't sign these kinds of contracts so easily in the future, understand?"

Wang Dong'er glared at him angrily, her cheeks puffed out.

"What's the use of saying that now! It's already signed!"

Jiang Ci'an laughed and said, "It's not like we actually signed a 'blood pact,' so what's there to be afraid of?"

Wang Dong'er was taken aback, her puffed-out cheeks deflated, and her eyes became clearer.

"What?"

Wasn't it a "blood pact"?

Her mind went blank for a moment, then she quickly recovered and said with a hint of grievance:

"Then why did you give such a scary explanation just now?!"

Jiang Ci'an shrugged.

"As I said, it's a modified special version of the 'Blood Pact.' The original mandatory restrictions on both parties have been replaced with an equal contract model. Only the benefits have been retained, while those unreasonable constraints have been removed."

"However, it is only an improvement, not a rewrite, and the contractual relationship between us still exists."

"However, the function of that connection is not a master-servant bond, but rather a prohibition against mutual malicious harm or betrayal. Those who violate it will suffer a backlash from the power of the soul contract."

After hearing this, Wang Dong'er breathed a deep sigh of relief.

"You should have said so earlier."

Her voice was much more relaxed, and the tension in her whole body visibly dissipated.

"That's it? I thought it was something else."

She didn't think there would be any situation in the future that would require her and this guy to draw their swords against each other, so this restriction of not being able to harm each other was basically no restriction at all.

but,

"Any benefits?"

Wang Dong'er blinked, and her blue-pink eyes lit up with anticipation once again.

"Why don't you try cultivating?" Jiang Ci'an said.

Wang Dong'er glanced at him suspiciously, but still closed her eyes as instructed and began to circulate the "Body Tempering Method" that she was already familiar with, and then...

"Um?"

Wang Dong'er opened her eyes, her gaze brightening.

She clearly felt that her "Body Tempering Technique" suddenly became incredibly smooth. She could hardly feel any obstruction when her soul power flowed through her meridians, and every strand of soul power flowed in perfect harmony with the rhythm of her body.

This feeling is hard to describe.

It was as if an invisible hand was guiding the flow of every strand of energy as she circulated her energy, making the complex process that originally required her to actively control become natural and smooth.

Her cultivation efficiency has increased by at least 20%!

Wang Dong'er looked up, her eyes filled with surprise.

"Is this the effect of the contract?"

Jiang Ci'an smiled and nodded.

This is the effect of his third soul skill, "Contract".
