Chapter 1091 404: First-Class Golden Contract Acquired! The Demon Lord's Seduction Plan!
"Kill!"
With a command from Ye Linghan, the Xuanhuang Army members raised their knives and let them fall, blood splattering like rain.
Amidst the harrowing wails, heads rolled continuously. Without Wu Ge and others' protection, these Barbarian Tribe dependents had no power to retaliate, and could only await the butcher's knife in terror.
"Please, Mr. Chen, spare us..."
"The children are innocent..."
Among them were women holding children, kneeling on the ground, pleading desperately.
However, the Great Yuan soldiers hesitated not a moment, their eyes indifferent, as their blades quickly harvested.
These Barbarian Tribe children, raised amidst hatred, already had the seeds of vengeance deeply planted. If spared now, perhaps next time they would hold the knife to one's throat!
They had guarded the border for years, negotiating countless times with the Barbarian Tribe, and were all too familiar with such matters.
Furthermore, when the Barbarian Tribe invaded Great Yuan years ago, they pillaged and burned, committing all manner of atrocities, causing countless innocents to die amidst the flames of war. Were those people not innocent too?
The history of the past has fully proven—
Only by completely annihilating the enemy will the hatred rooted in the bloodline disappear, allowing peace to prevail in the world!
And the Bone Erosion Tribe's plan to release blood mist in the Capital City further confirmed this truth; given even the slightest opportunity, these aliens would retaliate at any cost, bringing great disaster upon the common people!
"When will the cycle of vengeance end?"
Chen Mo sighed, turning away, seemingly unable to bear watching the bloody scene.
The Xuanhuang Army members mused silently, that Mr. Chen indeed had a kind heart, choosing to deal only with the tough bones, never slaughtering ordinary Barbarian Tribesmen.
Little did they know, it was simply because these old and weak women and children didn't provide True Spirit, and he was uninterested in making a move...
Looking away from everyone, Chen Mo checked the system prompts, grinning from ear to ear.
[Event Completed.]
[Rating: Excellent.]
[True Spirit +1000.]
[Obtained Rare Item: Dao Essence Crystal*2.]
[Obtained Rare Item: First-Class Creation Gold Contract*1.]
"Good, good, good!"
"Search high and low only to find it effortlessly! It had to be you, Brother Tongzi!"
While the two Dao Essence Crystals were a minimum guarantee, the real surprise for Chen Mo was that First-Class Creation Gold Contract!
The Creation Gold Contract is divided into three levels, the lowest limited to Mortal Body cultivators, the second grade's limit being Fourth Grade Transcendence, and only the First-Grade Golden Contract can seal deals with Heavenly Masters!
Its rarity rivals the Creation Golden Pill!
Even with Chen Mo's luck, backed by Jiu Zhou's richest woman, he'd only acquired three second-class contracts over time, one of which was snatched from Yu Hongyin...
As for a first-class contract, he hadn't even seen a shadow of one!
Who'd have thought it would come so suddenly?
Due to the many onlookers, Chen Mo didn't take out the Golden Contract, but instead examined it in the system interface.
The item description indicated that a First-Class Golden Contract could forge a pact with a Grandmaster, as long as both parties' realms did not exceed First Grade, and the signing was voluntary, the contract would take effect.
Regarding the specific terms, just like with second-class contracts, they must be within the capacity of the other party. A command like "I order you to surpass the Ultimate Venerable in three days and defeat Yu Youhan" would be invalid.
If you wish to add or subtract terms, or void the contract thereafter, both parties must consent.
Once the contract is nullified, the Creation Gold Contract is destroyed and cannot be reused.
"Excellent, just as I expected." Chen Mo nodded in satisfaction.
This precious item is hard-won; the right steel must be used on the edge!
As for the contract target, he'd already decided—
It was Ji Lianxing!
From recent interactions, their relationship had somewhat eased.
However, Chen Mo knew that woman would never abandon her revenge plans, akin to a ticking bomb for him.
The Creation Gold Contract could perfectly resolve this issue!
Moreover, Ji Lianxing herself is a First-Grade Sorcerer. Though her power pales compared to the Empress and Daoist Venerable, she stands out prominently across Jiu Zhou as a formidable warrior! Once contracted, she'd be like having a top-tier guardian beside him!
This way, the Xu Family could also be properly settled, and the [Master of Moonlight] mission could proceed smoothly.
A win-win indeed!
"Once sorted with Ji Lianxing, Manzhi and Hensui wouldn't need to be caught in between, then it will be the Holy Daughter flying bravely, Shuishui forever following, Ji Lianxing pushing from behind... cough, I got carried away."
Chen Mo shook his head, dispelling the mischievous thoughts.
The mentor-disciple dynamic could be quite precarious, one wrong move could spell trouble, and he hasn't figured out how to explain his initiation into Taoism to Ling Ningzhi yet...
Knowing Fairy Qingxuan's temperament, she might truly break with Daoist Venerable!
On the side, seeing Chen Mo silent and occasionally shaking his head and sighing, Ye Linghan presumed he couldn't stand the Xuanhuang Army's indiscriminate killing of captives. Pausing hesitantly, he spoke up, "Mr. Chen, I know you're a good man..."
?
Chen Mo froze momentarily.
He was just tallying his gains pleasantly, and now a "good man" card was slapped onto his face?
"You're the good man, your entire family is the good man," Chen Mo retorted in annoyance.
"Thank you for the praise, Mr. Chen, but years ago, my parents and sister were killed by the Barbarian Tribe, leaving only me." Ye Linghan's expression turned somber as he spoke softly.
"..."
Damn... thought Chen Mo.
Chen Mo was just about to apologize when Ye Linghan smiled and said, "It's okay, it's all in the past, although I couldn't protect my own family, I can strive to protect countless families in Great Yuan, preventing such tragedies from occurring again."
