"Why is this contract still here?
Didn't you search the entire trial formation and not find it? "
Bast complained to Iciz. After they had been imprisoned in the trial formation, Bast and the other two had looked for the contract once. In the end, they had found nothing, so they had thought that the Heaven Shrouding Sword Emperor had taken the contract away and had not hidden it in the trial formation.
"It's my fault. Why don't you say it's Anubis's fault?
He's a dog. What does it have to do with me if his nose can't smell anything? "Iciz snorted and then threw the blame on Anubis.
"Big sister, please. He's a husky … Can you count on a husky's nose?"
Bast said painfully. Iciz was instantly speechless. You can count on anything in this world, but don't count on a husky.
"Okay, you've said enough!"
Guhan threw the contract in front of Iciz and the other two. "The agreement about your release of freedom is in Article 111."
"Article 111 says that when Guhan takes control of the trial formation, he will return to the three gods, Iciz, Bast, and Anubis, absolute freedom. They are not allowed to go back on their word, hunt, arrange ambushes, and so on. He must ensure that these three gods can live as they please. Unless these three gods are stained with human blood again, Guhan and Guhan's men, relatives, friends, and all related people are not allowed to hurt them."
Guhan said concisely. In fact, the provisions were very strict. Article 111 alone used more than 500 words to describe it. It was to ensure that Guhan would give Bast and the other two absolute freedom according to the treaty.
"That's right!"
Bast plucked up his courage and said, "Isn't sealing our divinity restricting our absolute freedom?
Absolute freedom also includes our divinity. "
"Okay, do you think I'm careless and didn't read all the clauses clearly?
There's also Article 132 here. This is the treaty about lifting the seal on your divinity, "Guhan said with a sneer.
Upon hearing Guhan mention Article 132, Bast's last hope that Guhan was careless and did not read all the clauses was shattered.
"Rule 132 says that if you want to remove the seals on your Godhoods, you must take the initiative to help and maintain the trial formation.
When Guhan enters the training formation, you must immediately appear in front of Guhan and explain the rules of the training formation in detail. You must also secretly protect Guhan and not let him get hurt in the training formation. You must also control the pace and make sure that Guhan is always in the lead … "Bast and the other two were required to do a lot of things. There were more than 30 things in total.
Basically, it was a cheat for Guhan … Guhan looked at it and thought, Good heavens, if Bast and the other two did all of these things, Guhan would have successfully reached the top on the first day of entering the trial dungeon.
"How do you know that we didn't do these things …" Bast was still quibbling. "These are all done in secret. Of course, we are helping Lord Guhan in secret. Lord Guhan, aren't you the first person to enter the finishing line?"
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Bast did not help Guhan at all. At most, he ran over to Guhan and explained the ins and outs of the matter to Guhan when he was defeated by Iciz. Other than that, he did not do anything.
At the very least, he did not do the first requirement of explaining the rules of the trial formation at the beginning.
"Well, these are all done in secret."
Guhan sneered and glossed over this condition. No problem, he still had the 135th condition, the one that Bast could not refute.
"The 135th condition requires you to defend the finishing line. However, you are not allowed to stop Guhan from entering the finishing line … you can only stop other sword bearers from approaching the finishing line." Guhan threw the contract on the ground. "Iciz, what were you doing at that time?"
Bast could not refute this condition … This was also the reason why he gave up on doing the 132nd condition. With Iciz blocking his path like a lunatic, he was destined to be unable to remove the seal on his Godhood. What was the point of fawning over Guhan?
Bastet instantly went limp and could no longer muster any strength. He was almost a useless cat now.
…
"All right, the facts are very clear. According to the contract between you and Yi Qing, there is no need for me to remove the seal on your Godhood.
You can leave now and enjoy your life of freedom after 700 years! "Guhan gestured for Bast and the other two to leave.
"Woof woof!"
Anubis looked at Bast with incomparable sorrow. It had to be said that a husky's expression was very pitiful when it was sad.
Even Iciz looked at Bast pitifully … They were all hoping that Bast, the smartest among them, would be able to find a way to remove the seal on their Godhood.
"Just tell us, my lord. What do you want us to do in order for you to remove the seal on our Godhood?"
Bast looked at Gu Han with an ashen face. He suddenly understood. Gu Han must have wanted to discuss some conditions with them. That was why he put out this contract.
If Guhan really didn't want to remove the seal on their Godhood, why would he go through all this trouble, gathering them together, taking out the contract and saying so much nonsense … Guhan had also read out the entire contract. Given his understanding of Guhan's character, Guhan would never waste time on such things. He definitely had something up his sleeve.
"Alright, since you can see it, I won't keep you in suspense. I can remove the seal on your Godhood, but you have to help me fight and become my helper.
Help me just like how you helped Zhe Tian Jiandi back then. "Guhan finally revealed his purpose.
"Then, like Zhe Tian Jiandi, you want to trick us into staying in this damned trial formation for 700 years?" Bast had more or less guessed what Guhan wanted.
These three unlucky fellows, other than their abilities, did not have anything else that Gu Han coveted.
"No, I can sign a new contract with you. When I become an immortal sword wielder, the contract will automatically end. I must give you absolute freedom and remove the seal on your Godhood," Guhan said calmly.
Gu Han said indifferently, "If you really understand me, then you should also know that I am a person who keeps my words.
Even if you are Yuan Kou, I will still keep my promise.
However, after you get your freedom, you must join the free city and become an absolutely neutral free person. If you are willing, we can sign the contract now. If not, you can leave. "
"We need to discuss this!"
After Bast said that, he pulled Iciz and Anubis to the side and began to discuss in a low voice. Although it was a discussion between the three gods, Anubis did not participate at all. He just kept barking. The ones who were really arguing were Bast and Iciz.
Iciz wanted to leave immediately. She had had enough of being a subordinate of humans. More importantly, she had been trapped for 700 years. Therefore, Iciz was determined to leave. Even if she could only be a soul rank Yuan Kou, it was better than continuing to be a dog of humans.
"Woof, woof, woof!"
Upon hearing Iciz's words, Anubis replied. Iciz's face was as disgusted as if she had eaten dog poop. Guess what Anubis said?
"Iciz, I don't want to persuade you. If you are really willing to be a soul rank Yuan Kou and abandon your Godhood forever, I can only bless you!"
Bast's attitude was also very firm. He was willing to believe in Guhan once and become his subordinate. When Guhan became an immortal sword bearer, he would be free.
As for whether Guhan could become an immortal sword bearer, neither Bast nor Iciz had any doubts. After all, their relationship with Guhan was far from as simple as Guhan knew.
"Are you going to separate from me?"
Iciz almost jumped when she heard Bast say this. "Didn't the three of us agree to never separate in this world?"
"Then bear with it. Bear with it for another 10 years. Bear with it until Guhan becomes an immortal sword bearer!"
Bast said through gritted teeth. "Don't forget how old Guhan was when we first saw him.
Maybe we can get our Godhood back in less than 10 years.
Seven hundred years have passed. Can't you even get through 10 years?
At the very least, we can live outside for 10 years. It's just that we have to be restrained by Guhan … It's not like we haven't been under Guhan's control before. It's not a big deal. "
Probably because Bast's words had an effect, Iciz fell silent. She thought for a long time … As a former god, it was more painful for them to give up the Godhood that symbolized the glory of the gods to be a small soul rank Yuan Kou.
Therefore, Iciz finally agreed. As for Anubis, he was just a husky. She did not need to care about what he thought.
"It seems like you have an idea!"
Guhan smiled, then took out a pen and paper. He wrote a contract on the spot and handed it to Bast.
Bast read the entire contract very carefully … Compared to Yi Qing's contract, which had more than 140 clauses and 50 pages, Guhan's contract was very simple.
From the moment the contract was signed, Bast, Iciz, and Anubis became Guhan's subordinates. They would listen to Guhan's orders, carry out the tasks assigned by Guhan, and protect Guhan's life.
Without Guhan's permission, the three of them were not allowed to leave a 20-kilometer radius around Guhan. Without Guhan's permission, they were not allowed to show their true strength. Usually, they had to appear in the form of animals.
Guhan was not allowed to insult the reputation and dignity of Bast, Iciz, and Anubis. He was not allowed to order them to do anything that would damage their dignity. If a human sword bearer or Yuan Kou attacked them, they had the right to fight back. However, they could only knock out the human sword bearer. They were not allowed to kill them.
Yuan Kou did not have this restriction.
Guhan could not let them do tasks that would lead to certain death, or tasks that were beyond their ability. As long as they obeyed orders, Guhan could not interfere with their daily lives. He had to provide them with accommodation, food, bathing, holidays, mating, and other rights that animals naturally enjoyed …
The contract lasted until the day Guhan became a sword bearer at the level of a fairy sword. When Guhan became a sword bearer at the level of a fairy sword, the contract would automatically end. Guhan had to completely remove the seal on their godhoods and give them freedom.
However, they could not join Yuan Kou's camp. Instead, they had to join the Freedom Metropolis. In the future, they were not allowed to actively attack humans or kill humans. Otherwise, Guhan would hunt them down.
All in all, this was a contract that was very considerate of Bast and the other two. At the very least, they were given the greatest respect for their dignity. This made Bast and the other two heave a sigh of relief. Finally, they made a cut on their claws and used their own blood to paint their claws red. Finally, they imprinted it on the contract.
This was probably the funniest contract in history. Other than Guhan's own name, there were only three red paw prints of different sizes. It was as if his own pet had accidentally pressed on it.
