Chapter 545: Changing the Contract
Mu Yunxi greeted him with a smile on her face and praised sincerely, "That's awesome."
Gu Li raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a confident and complacent smile, and said excitedly: "I've made money, let's go out and have a big meal."
When Su Yiyun heard this, he immediately became energetic and quickly agreed, "Let's go, let's go."
Amid the envious and amazed gazes of the people around them, the few of them swaggered out of the academy.
Mu Yunxi then remembered something and turned to look at Xi Zihan and Feng Wuhen, and asked in confusion: "Haven't you guys reported to class yet? Is everything okay?"
Xi Zihan said calmly, "It's okay."
Now that we have successfully found Ahri and the others, it doesn’t matter whether we go to report or not for the time being.
He also knew that the registration time was not limited to today, and there would be plenty of time to complete the registration procedures later.
After leaving the college, they looked around and finally found a restaurant that looked quite grand.
After entering the restaurant, they booked a spacious and comfortable private room, where they planned to celebrate properly.
As soon as he entered the private room, Gu Li couldn't wait to re-contract the Chaos Ring and the Pavilion of Rebirth.
With a flash of soft light, several beasts appeared in the box in camouflage form.
Xiaotingzi looked aggrieved, "Master, you actually abandoned us."
Gu Li gently touched its head and said softly, "I'm afraid something might happen to you."
Xiaotingzi turned her head away proudly and snorted, "Hmph."
Although they were still upset on the surface, they were not that angry in their hearts.
An An rushed directly into Gu Li's arms and said in a soft voice: "Don't do this next time."
Gu Li smiled and nodded, saying, "No."
At this time, Xiao Quezi, Xiao Tengteng, Taotie, Xiao Jinzi, Xiao Qianqian, Little Wolf Cub and Xiao Bai were all looking at her eagerly, their eyes full of expectation.
"Master, touch us too."
Gu Li naturally would not let them down, and he touched their heads one by one, muttering, "Be good, all."
Then, Gu Li turned his gaze to Jiuying and Qilin, who were silent, and asked softly, "Are you two going to leave?"
Jiuying looked calm and said slowly: "It's not time yet. When the time comes, I will leave naturally."
Qilin raised his head slightly and said, "I don't know where to go yet, so I will protect you for a while longer."
Gu Li and Xiao Quezi both successfully renegotiated their contracts, but for Jiuying and Qilin, the situation was a little different.
These two were not her contracted beasts in the conventional sense.
They will leave at a specific time, so in Gu Li's opinion, there doesn't seem to be much difference whether there is a contract or not.
Seeing that Gu Li did not take the initiative to sign a contract with him, Jiuying could not help but ask, "Why do you look down on me?"
Gu Li was stunned, obviously not expecting Jiuying to say that, and asked in confusion: "What do you mean?"
Jiuying snorted and said, "Why don't you sign a contract with me?"
Gu Li quickly explained: "It's almost time, there's no need for this."
She felt that since Jiuying would be leaving soon, signing a contract was unnecessary.
Jiuying was unyielding and insisted, "Before the time comes, we must renegotiate the contract."
Gu Li felt helpless. He turned to look at Qilin and asked, "Um...where is Qilin?"
Qilin thought for a moment, thinking that it would be a bit awkward for him to be the only one without a contract, so he said, "In that case, I'll sign a new one as well."
"Then I'll sign the contract." Gu Li said, gently biting his finger and squeezing out two drops of blood.
He flew towards Jiuying and Qilin, ready to sign a new temporary contract with them.
Seeing this, Jiuying moved his fingers slightly, and the two drops of blood accurately entered his and Qilin's bodies.
In an instant, the entire box shook violently as if there was an earthquake.
The exquisite dishes on the table were scattered all over the floor in an instant. The sound of plates breaking and the exclamations of the crowd were intertwined.
Su Yiyun couldn't help but swear: "Fuck, what's going on?"
Gu Li's pupils shrank suddenly, and he immediately realized that something was wrong, and shouted: "Jiuying, you changed the temporary contract!"
Her tone was very firm, because she clearly felt that the power of the contract had changed.
She was completely unprepared, and Jiuying changed the contract between the three of them.
The vibration suddenly stopped, and the contract was declared complete.
Qilin looked at Jiuying in bewilderment and asked in disbelief, "How did it become a life contract?"
Jiuying said proudly, "They are all under life contracts, so we cannot be treated differently."
Qilin was so angry that he shouted: "Jiuying!!!"
It glared at Jiuying angrily and asked, "Have you asked for my opinion?"
It didn't want to make a contract with humans in the first place, and now that it has been forcibly changed into a life contract, one can imagine the anger in its heart.
"If you want to change the contract, you can just change your own. Why are you changing mine?"
Jiuying said innocently, "I'm afraid you'll be lonely."
Qilin was so angry that he yelled, "Fuck you!"
Everyone knows that there is an essential difference between a temporary contract and a life contract.
A temporary contract will automatically be released at the specified time, but a life contract can only be released by the contractor himself, and the contractor can only release it five years after the contract is signed.
So even if Gu Li is willing to untie it now, there is nothing we can do. What if she changes her mind five years later and doesn’t want to untie it?
Jiuying ignored the Qilin's roar that almost devoured it, and just said calmly: "Shouldn't we be concerned about the thunder now?"
Hearing this, everyone looked at each other, their eyes full of confusion and shock.
Thunder? Again?
Gu Li was so upset that she almost cried, "I really admire you. Couldn't you have told me in advance?"
If she had known that it would trigger a thunderbolt, she would definitely have gone to a remote and deserted place to make the contract instead of staying in this city.
Jiuying just shrugged indifferently, as if it had nothing to do with him, and said, "It's too late to say anything."
That attitude made Gu Li even more angry.
Gu Li glared at it fiercely and said with gritted teeth: "I'll settle the score with you later."
Then, she quickly adjusted her mood, turned to look at the other contracted beasts, and said in a hurried but unquestionable tone: "You go back to the space first."
When Xiao Quezi heard this, he immediately said firmly: "No, I will help you carry it too, don't think about it alone."
Gu Li felt warm in his heart and explained patiently, "I know. I'll leave the city first and then let you out."
After listening to it, the little ones nodded sensibly, turned into rays of light, and re-entered the space.
