"Ms. Wei, if I insist on forming a life contract with Uncle Ning under these circumstances, what would the consequences be?" Lan Sizhui asked persistently.
"A Yuan, there's no need to force it; I'm fine with it..." Wen Ning said anxiously, trying to stop him.
I lowered my head in thought for a moment and calmly analyzed, "Aside from the possibilities of failure and success, there is a chance that a life contract could be formed, but the original Contract Order might be disrupted and unable to accept commands."
"Oh, that's not a big deal," Wei Wuxian shrugged.
"Additionally, the process of forming the contract could interfere with the original master, causing them to become part of the shared experience."
"Ah? Well, that could be a bit troublesome..." Wei Wuxian cautiously glanced at Lan Wangji. "By the way, Little Flower, do you know how to dissolve a contract? If we can remove the original Contract Order that belonged to me, it should be fine, right? Unfortunately, I don't know how to do that; can you help?"
The Yiling Patriarch was skilled in commanding corpses and manipulating spirits, but most of it was simply about following orders.
However, at that time, Wei Wuxian had exhausted all his efforts to restore Wen Ning's consciousness and couldn't even figure out how he had inadvertently formed the Contract Order in the first place, let alone how to dissolve it.
"Dissolving the contract is possible, but his binding Contract Order is connected to his Soul Sense. Once the Contract Order is removed, he will lose his consciousness and become an ordinary Xiong Shi," I replied calmly.
Everyone fell into silence.
"Um... really no need to force it; I..." Wen Ning looked at Lan Sizhui and then at Wei Wuxian, unsure of what to say. "I'm really fine with it..."
The dead cannot find liberation through death again unless their consciousness is extinguished and sealed or their bodies are shattered and turned to ashes; otherwise, they can only wander in this world endlessly without peace.
To prevent Wen Ning from experiencing inhumane treatment again, Wei Wuxian wanted to form a life contract with him—seeking a shared end so that he wouldn't have to remain alone in this world after a hundred years.
"Hmm? Wait a minute; it shouldn't matter, right? If that's the case, then we can do this..." I suddenly lowered my head and murmured to myself.
"Ms. Wei, have you thought of a solution?" Lan Sizhui looked at me with renewed hope.
"Well... first, let me confirm a few things." I looked up at Lan Sizhui. "Young Master Si Chui, are you willing to trust Ghost General?"
"Yes, no problem!" Lan Sizhui nodded eagerly.
I then turned to face Wen Ning. "So, Ghost General, can you also give your absolute trust to Young Master Si Chui?"
"Huh? Yes, of course." Wen Ning nodded blankly.
"Next..." I turned to Wei Wuxian. "Senior Wei, just in case Ghost General loses his mind later, can you help subdue him?"
"Wait a minute, Little Flower, what are you planning to do?" Wei Wuxian looked at me in confusion.
"Just as you suggested earlier, we will break the contract and then re-establish it. After all, the life contract is also connected to the Soul Sense. As long as we can successfully re-establish the contract, we should be able to bring back Ghost General's consciousness, so it should be fine." I replied. "The only issue now is whether we can keep Ghost General in place during the gap after breaking the contract and losing consciousness until we can complete the re-establishment."
"I see. As long as we don't let Wen Ning run around, it should be fine, right? Leave this to me; I guarantee he'll behave!" Wei Wuxian's eyes lit up with a smile.
"Since there are no issues, shall we proceed now?" I asked.
"Yes." Lan Sizhui nodded. "So, Ms. Wei, what should I do?"
"Please shake hands with Ghost General and don't let go until the contract is completed."
"Ah, okay." Lan Sizhui hurriedly stepped forward and tightly grasped Wen Ning's hands.
"Uh... what should I do?" Wen Ning asked.
"Don't move," I said succinctly.
"Oh." Wen Ning stood completely still, his body rigid.
"Then, I apologize for my rudeness." I stepped behind Wen Ning, placing my hand on his back, focusing on sensing the connection to the Contract Order linked with his Soul Sense, intertwining my spiritual energy with it—
"Break, release."
A flash of spiritual light appeared as I forcibly shattered the Contract Order. Wen Ning's eyes immediately lost their clarity, rolling back as he emitted faint, unintelligible clicking sounds from his mouth.
I cautiously stepped back and observed for a moment before slowly moving between the two. Wei Wuxian stood ready at the side, while Lan Sizhui appeared somewhat anxious.
"Don't worry, relax. Just call out to him in your heart," I softly reassured.
"Okay, okay." Lan Sizhui took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down while still tightly holding onto Wen Ning's hands.
Confirming that Wen Ning showed no signs of rage, I steadied myself and opened my arms, beginning to chant the binding incantation—
"Soul Sense guides, lives intertwined, both parties hereby agree to coexist..." Spiritual light emanated, slowly enveloping both parties in the contract.
"Life together, death returns to dust, bonds unbroken..." I pressed my palms together forcefully, and the spiritual light immediately concentrated on their clasped hands—
"Contract established!"
The spiritual light suddenly erupted and dispersed.
[Contract completed].
Seeing the notification pop up before me, I instinctively looked at Wen Ning until I confirmed that his pupils had returned to normal. Only then could I not help but let out a sigh of relief.
"Um, A Yuan, I'm fine now. You don't have to keep calling me; I can hear you..." Wen Ning suddenly said.
"Huh? Uncle Ning, you're awake... uh, wait, that's not right. I didn't call you, I..." Seeing Wen Ning regain consciousness, Lan Sizhui seemed to realize something and suddenly turned red in the face, covering his head and shouting, "Wait, no way! Can we really communicate telepathically?!"
"Huh? Uh, well..." Wen Ning instantly looked bewildered and at a loss.
"N-no problem! I'm fine! Really! But, Uncle Ning, promise me that no matter what you hear right now, you absolutely mustn't say it out loud! Please!"
Watching Lan Sizhui's reaction, I immediately understood.
Congratulations on drawing the worst lot~~
"Is that it?" Wei Wuxian approached me with a puzzled expression.
"Yes, the bond is complete." This time, without being ambushed by Mo Fei Law, it was truly fortunate to have successfully concluded while Wen Ning remained calm.
"But why hasn't Wen Ning changed?" Wei Wuxian asked in confusion. "He still looks like a corpse to me."
"Yeah! Ms. Wei, why hasn't the Ghost General revived like Master Song?" Lan Jingyi also asked curiously.
"Huh?" Upon hearing this, Lan Sizhui was taken aback as well and quickly scrutinized Wen Ning closely. "Ms. Wei, is there something wrong?"
I stared at the "corpse-like" Wen Ning for a while before finally realizing what they were talking about.
"Oh, that has nothing to do with the bond; it's something that needs to be done separately." I walked directly in front of Wen Ning and extended my hand toward him. "Sorry for the trouble, Ghost General. May I borrow your hand again?"
"Ah? Oh, alright." Wen Ning placed his hand back on mine as instructed.
I, Xu Ran, softly chanted the Restoration Technique. A stream of spiritual light slowly enveloped Wen Ning's entire body. When the light faded, he revealed a look of disbelief as he examined himself.
"This..." Although his skin remained pale and devoid of color, he was no longer stiff and could move as freely as an ordinary person. Even the previous injuries to his body had completely healed.
The others nearby couldn't help but widen their eyes at the near-rebirth of Wen Ning. Lan Sizhui was so moved that he was on the verge of tears.
"Uncle Ning..."
I also knelt down in shock.
"Wait? How could this...?"
Hold on, why? I had only used the contract and restoration; why had my Spiritual Power Value dropped to zero?!
When I used it on Song Lan back then, it hadn't consumed this much, and my total spiritual power had even increased. This shouldn't be happening!
"Ms. Wei?!"
Before I could make sense of it all, darkness enveloped me, and I lost consciousness.
