Wild Dogs

As he spoke, Yang Fan took a deep breath.

Upon hearing that Yang Fan was willing to back down, Qi Peilan looked at him with delight.

"Oh, then tell me how far you're willing to compromise."

Yang Fan pointed his finger at Qi Peilan.

"It's very simple. The first thing is for us to draw up a contract. You have to find a way to protect me."

"I'm injured right now, so you have to protect me and maintain the surrounding restrictions to prevent other spirit beasts from getting close."

Qi Peilan thought for a moment and nodded.

"sure."

"The second thing is that you have to continue refining Heavenly Spirit Pills for me."

Hearing this, Qi Peilan gritted her teeth, but she still nodded.

"This one is fine too, are there any others?"

Qi Peilan continued to ask.

Upon hearing this, Yang Fan shook his head.

"That's all. I only have these two requests. Tell me what they are."

Yang Fan was very interested in the blood pact proposed by Qi Peilan, so he continued to ask questions.

Upon hearing this, Qi Peilan reached out her hand.

"For this first condition, you can let me protect you, but you also have to let me use my cultivation."

"Otherwise, I won't even be able to catch any spirit beasts now, and we'll starve to death here sooner or later."

Then Qi Peilan looked at Yang Fan.

"If I'm not mistaken, the injuries you sustained while rushing here must have been even more severe, and you probably can't even mobilize your spiritual energy for the time being."

Upon hearing this, Yang Fan pondered for a moment, and seeing that he could not hide it from Qi Peilan, he had no choice but to nod.

"Yes, that is true."

Qi Peilan slightly raised her head.

"Okay, this isn't too much, is it?"

Yang Fan nodded.

"That one is indeed not excessive."

"The second condition is that I can refine the Heavenly Spirit Pill, but you can't get anything for nothing. I'll give you half of the Heavenly Spirit Pills I refine."

Yang Fan frowned.

"I provided all the medicinal herbs."

Qi Peilan then raised her head.

"But I refined the pills myself, why should I just give them to you for free?"

Hearing this, Yang Fan was speechless for a moment, and then nodded.

"Alright, what you said makes sense. Let's stick to what we agreed on: half for you, half for me. Any other requests?"

Qi Peilan immediately started counting on her fingers.

"Of course there are other requirements. I've worked so hard for you for so long, you should give me some spirit stones as a reward."

"Also, the barbecue you made before was pretty good. I'll be catching some spirit beasts every day, so you have to barbecue for me on time."

"In addition, you have to tell me how hard I've worked these past few days, and after it's done, you'll have to tell me your spirit-sealing techniques so I can use them on other people."

At this point, Qi Peilan looked smug.

Yang Fan remained calm, and then Qi Peilan listed one condition after another on her fingers. The more she listened to these conditions, the more demanding and bizarre they became.

After a long while, Yang Fan revealed a strange smile, but remained silent.

Qi Peilan stopped halfway through her speech.

She glanced at Yang Fan and saw him staring at her with a strange expression. Qi Peilan felt embarrassed and realized that she had asked for too much.

Thinking of this, she coughed awkwardly.

"What, do you have any objections to my suggestion?"

Upon hearing this, Yang Fan shook his head slightly.

"No objections, what you said is absolutely right, I agree with everything."

Upon hearing this, Qi Peilan was immediately taken aback.

Do you really agree with everything?

"Really, I completely agree."

Upon hearing this, Qi Peilan became displeased.

"Look at you, you clearly have no sincerity whatsoever."

Upon hearing this, Yang Fan laughed.

"I said I agreed to everything, and you actually said I wasn't sincere."

Qi Peilan hesitated for a long time.

"I'm making so many demands so that you can bargain with me. If I make a dozen demands and you only make five or six, then I can compromise and make more demands."

Qi Peilan said awkwardly.

Yang Fan smiled sarcastically; he could, of course, see through Qi Peilan's plan.

That's how people are. If you want to open a window in a room and you just ask directly, no one will agree. But if you say you want to tear down the roof, everyone will agree to your request to open a window.

Yang Fan took a deep breath and shook his head.

"I'll say it again, I have two requests, and you can only make two requests as well."

"First, I will remove some of the restrictions on you, but you are not allowed to escape. You must continue to protect my safety."

"Secondly, you continue refining the Heavenly Spirit Pill. I will give you half of the pills after it's done. That shouldn't be a problem, right?"

Upon hearing this, Qi Peilan nodded.

"Furthermore, as you said, let's make a blood oath, and neither of us will be allowed to lay a hand on the other."

"From today onwards, we are a community of shared interests. Anyone who goes against the other or dares to use underhanded tactics against them will be condemned by Heaven."

Yang Fan said coldly.

Upon hearing this, Qi Peilan pondered for a moment and then raised her head.

"What's there to be afraid of? We both have dirt on each other anyway."

"Alright, it's settled then. Let's draw up a blood pact."

Yang Fan pointed at Qi Peilan as he spoke.

Qi Peilan immediately took out a yellow talisman, then bit her fingertip and dripped her own blood into it.

She then gave Yang Fan some pointers.

"Drip your essence down."

Yang Fan followed the same method, and after the two men's blood essences mingled on the talisman, the talisman was completely stained with blood.

At the same time, Qi Peilan carefully separated a wisp of her divine soul and poured it into the talisman.

"You should also spare a small portion of your soul into it."

Yang Fan gritted his teeth and also separated a small portion of his divine soul.

Immediately afterwards, Qi Peilan pulled Yang Fan along.

"Let's write our requests on the talisman paper now."

Yang Fan and Qi Peilan then wrote their requests on talismans, and together they made a pact below that they would support each other and never betray one another.

After saying that, Qi Peilan pulled Yang Fan along.

"Alright, let's kneel down now and swear an oath by the will of Heaven."

Yang Fan nodded, and then, under Qi Peilan's guidance, the two clasped hands in mid-air, their fingers interlocked.

"If I break this oath, Heaven will not tolerate me, and I will die and my spirit will perish."

As soon as they finished speaking, the blood-bound talisman suddenly burst into flames.

Immediately afterwards, a stream of blood-red energy flew upwards and disappeared without a trace a moment later.

At this moment, both of them felt as if something was watching them from the shadows.

Seeing this, Yang Fan breathed a sigh of relief. He was already injured and in a weak position, so having a blood pact to restrain Qi Peilan was a good thing for him.

Qi Peilan also breathed a sigh of relief; for her, being able to remove the restrictions on her body was a good thing.

Qi Peilan looked at Yang Fan excitedly, but when she saw that the two were holding hands, her face turned bright red and she quickly broke free.
