“Ahem, ahem!” The masked figure awkwardly coughed twice, feeling embarra.s.sed. “1 didn’t mean it that way. I’m willing to serve as a loyal servant to repay the favor you did for me, young master. But before I can repay you, may I ask if you could grant me one wish?”

Gu Qingluan asked, “You want to enter the Boundary Wall s.p.a.ce?”

“Yes.”

“I’ve heard that the Boundary Wall s.p.a.ce is extremely dangerous, and more than half of the adventurers who enter it don’t make it out alive. If you happen to be one of those unlucky ones, how will you repay me?”

The masked figure replied firmly, “I will definitely come out.”

Perhaps he knew that his words lacked persuasiveness, so he added, “If the young master is still worried, we can make a contract. If 1 die inside the Boundary Wall s.p.a.ce, my soul will return to you immediately to serve you.” “You’re not of the human race?” Gu Qingluan raised an eyebrow in surprise.

“I am a human, but our clan is rather unique,” the masked figure paused and continued, “I am of the Spirit Clan. In our clan, as long as our souls are intact, they will return to the clan after death. Once 1 make a contract with you, my soul will return to you after death. While our souls may not be powerful individually, they can serve as spirit companions. You should know that having a spirit companion can greatly enhance the power of profound artifacts.”

Gu Qingluan had only read about the Spirit Clan in books and had never seen one in person.

According to the records, the Spirit Clan rarely interacted with the outside world.

They possessed arcane power from birth, could communicate with nature, especially with plants and animals, and were a unique race with innate abilities.

At the same time, they possessed a fatal flaw: excessive innocence and kindness.

Kindness was inherently virtuous.

However, the Spirit Clan took kindness to an extreme. They wouldn’t harm others and placed extreme trust in people. This trust was exploited by humans in the past, almost leading to their extinction. As a result, the Spirit Clan withdrew from the world and went into seclusion due to this reason.

Additionally, the Spirit Clan had a low birthrate.

As far as Gu Qingluan knew, there had been no sightings of the Spirit Clan on the continent for over a hundred years.

There might have been individuals who hid their ident.i.ties and went unnoticed, and some even claimed that the Spirit Clan had gone extinct.

Gu Qingluan lightly stroked her chin with her slender fingers, appraising him from head to toe. “Aren’t your Spirit Clan supposed to be harmless? 1 heard that you just used a fake key to poison many people at the auction.”

The masked figure’s face turned pale. “I… I’m not a pure Spirit Clan member.”

“Oh, so you’re a half-blood.”

The masked figure tightly pressed his lips together.

Gu Qingluan had to mult.i.task, as her consciousness outside the s.p.a.ce was keeping an eye on her surroundings. She didn’t have time for a lengthy discussion. “Alright, I agree to your proposal. Let’s make the contract.”

The masked figure didn’t expect her to agree so quickly.

He thought she would continue to question his ident.i.ty.

After a brief pause, the masked figure sat up, supporting himself with his hands on the ground, and drew a circle on his chest with his hand.

A drop of blood flew out of his chest, hovering in mid-air.

“With my blood as a vow, 1 pledge to serve you. If 1 ever betray this vow, may heaven and earth punish me!”

As he spoke, a bright white light enveloped him, with Gu Qingluan inside.

Gu Qingluan felt a warm aura surrounding her.

Simultaneously, a surge of heat was infused into her body.

The Hongmeng Qi, concealed within her dantian, surged forth.

Gu Qingluan blinked her eyes.

How was this possible!

Her Hongmeng Qi had actually increased!

As the contract was established, the radiance around both of them dissipated.

The masked figure’s aura was slightly weaker than before, and he slumped to the ground in exhaustion.

Gu Qingluan instinctively reached out to touch him.

“What’s wrong with you?”
