A halo of light formed a strange rune in the air, then suddenly shot through Qiao Xixi's body.
The moment the halo passed through her, a star-like pattern appeared on Yaoxi's arm.
Yun Ji stopped what he was doing and looked at the two of them.
"The Contract Ceremony is complete."
Yaoxi stood up and walked over to Qiao Xixi.
"Xixi, with the Guardian Contract in place, you can finally rest easy. I know that even as I say this, you won't believe me, but I truly never intended to do anything to harm you."
"At this point, whether I believe you or not is completely irrelevant, isn't it?"
Yaoxi was at a loss for words. After a helpless sigh, she said nothing more.
"Sacred Priest, I have done what I promised. Can you rest assured now?"
"Mmm."
After Yaoxi left, Yun Ji took Qiao Xixi back to his quarters.
"Are Yu Ye and Aunt Yaoxi the only candidates for the succession now?"
