Chapter 109 Temptation
"Ahem..." Yan Zhiyin coughed lightly, breaking the silence and asked, "Have you ever thought about leaving this secret realm?"
As soon as the voice fell, the Fire Kirin was the first to respond: "You want us to sign a contract with you?" Its eyes were full of disbelief, and it looked at Yan Zhiyin with some doubt, thinking secretly in its heart, is this human really so confident?
Normally, spirit beasts would only choose to sign contracts with cultivators who were equally or more powerful. After all, this would ensure that both parties could support each other and grow together on the path of cultivation.
However, facing this cultivator whose strength was not outstanding, Huo Qilin couldn't help but feel doubtful - where did she get the confidence to make such a request?
Yan Zhiyin seemed to understand what Huo Qilin was thinking, but did not show any sign of retreating.
He nodded calmly, indicating that he agreed with the other party's guess: "Yes, I do hope to establish a contractual relationship with you."
At that moment, everyone present was stunned, as if time had stopped. If it weren't for this human, they would have died long ago. However, now they were faced with a difficult choice - the contract.
As everyone knows, if a beast signs a contract with a human and becomes their spirit beast, its own strength will drop to the same level of cultivation as its master. There is only one exception, and that is to sign an equal contract, so that each can maintain their original cultivation level.
After all, it was this human who saved their lives, so they had no objection to whether or not to sign the contract. But the problem was that if they chose a master-servant contract, their cultivation would be greatly reduced... Then wouldn't their tribulation today be in vain?
Before that, can you tell me why you can enter and exit this secret realm at will?" Baihu did not give an answer immediately as everyone expected, but instead changed the subject and asked Yan Zhiyin another question.
Yan Zhiyin was obviously a little surprised and was slightly stunned, but she quickly regained her composure. After all, there was nothing to be ashamed of about this matter, so she nodded and said, "Of course!"
Then, Yan Zhiyin reached out and gently pulled Xiao Zi and Xiao Lu, who were standing behind him, to the front.
The eyes that were originally focused on Yan Zhiyin were now attracted to the two children. They were full of suspicion, and they really couldn't figure out what the two seemingly ordinary children in front of them had to do with what Baihu mentioned.
"Because I contracted them!" Yan Zhiyin shrugged lightly.
Seeing the confused looks on the beasts' faces, he secretly sighed in his heart, no wonder these spirit beasts were not smart, he had explained it so clearly, yet they still could not understand.
However, at this moment, the white tiger, which had been silent all this time, suddenly raised its head. It first looked at the two children, then cast its gaze towards Yan Zhiyin, and then said without hesitation: "Are they the spirits of the secret realm?"
As soon as these words were spoken, all the spirit beasts present were stunned. They looked at each other, their eyes filled with astonishment and confusion.
Then, when they looked at Xiao Zi and Xiao Lu again, their eyes showed an irrepressible surprise. As if they had finally solved a long-standing mystery, everyone began to whisper.
"They are the spirits of the secret realm that we have always wanted to see!"
"Who would have thought it would look like this!"
Although the white tiger and other spiritual beasts live in the secret realm, they have never seen the secret realm spirits. So when they heard Yan Zhiyin say that the two children in front of them were the secret realm spirits, they were all surprised!
Yan Zhiyin also turned his gaze towards Baihu and nodded slightly, expressing his agreement: "You guessed right!"
Her voice was calm, but contained a hint of admiration that was hard to detect. Obviously, Yan Zhiyin was very surprised that Baihu could see through the truth so quickly.
It seems that the white tiger is the big brother of this group of spiritual beasts, Yan Zhiyin thought to himself.
At this moment, the golden toad, who had been standing quietly by the side, finally couldn't suppress its inner impulse. It stood up suddenly and walked straight towards Xiao Zi and Xiao Lu, with curiosity and desire flashing in its eyes, as if it wanted to reach out and knead the two little guys.
"Sister~" Xiao Zi screamed with disgust upon seeing this, and quickly hid behind Yan Zhiyin, tightly grasping the corner of her clothes; Xiao Lu was no exception, and looked at Jin Chan vigilantly.
Upon seeing this, Yan Zhiyin quickly shouted, "Stop!" As soon as she finished speaking, a mysterious force suddenly emanated from her body and instantly enveloped the golden toad.
In an instant, the golden toad seemed to be under a spell, its body completely stiffened and it could not move at all.
"Hey, hey, hey, let me go!" Jin Chan was terrified and shouted at the top of his voice, his voice full of anxiety and grievance.
"I really didn't intend to do anything bad, I just thought they were so cute that I couldn't help but want to touch them..."
While struggling desperately, Jin Chan earnestly explained to Yan Zhiyin, and at the same time, he did not forget to wink at Baihu, his eyes revealing a request for help.
Obviously, he hoped that Baihu could come forward and say a few good words for him and rescue him from his current predicament.
Yan Zhiyin released Baihu before he could say anything. She didn't expect that she could really control him by saying it out of the blue: "Release him!"
Jin Chan stepped back feeling aggrieved and dared not think about it anymore.
Xiao Zi even deliberately stuck out her tongue behind Yan Zhiyin, but this made Jin Chan very angry.
"Xiaomei, what happened just now?" Yan Zhiyin asked the food system in his mind.
The food system replied: "Host, aren't you the master of this secret realm now? All creatures in this secret realm must obey you. Of course, if they leave the secret realm, the host will not be a threat to them, but they cannot leave the secret realm without a contract."
Yan Zhiyin nodded secretly. If they didn't want to sign the contract, she wouldn't make it difficult for them.
"So do you want to make a contract with me? As far as I know, you can't leave this secret realm without making a contract with a human cultivator, right? It's a pity that your cultivation level is limited to staying in the secret realm and not being able to go out and show off your power!"
White Tiger and other spirit beasts were silent for a while: "So you saved us just to make a contract with us?"
"You can say that. Of course, if you don't want to sign the contract, I won't do anything to you. But you also know that you were able to advance this time because of my explosive clavicle.
You were able to successfully overcome the tribulation because of my help. I still have many more delicacies like fried collarbones that can help you practice.
If you make a contract with me, I can provide you with everything unconditionally, and you can also leave this secret realm. All you have to do is to help me intimidate other monks and protect my safety.
With your current strength, my request is not a problem at all, so you won't lose anything by signing a contract with me."
Yan Zhiyin nodded and then analyzed all the benefits of the contract with her.
