The crimson blood-like talisman pattern wrapped around her wrist like a mark growing from the skin.
The old, tree-bark-like skin reverted to its original smooth and delicate state, appearing even fairer against the talisman pattern.
"What is this?"
"It's the Same Birth Talisman." Chu Yunyi lifted his left hand, the wide sleeve sliding down to his elbow, revealing his upper arm. On his wrist was an identical talisman pattern, only slightly lighter in color than Li Xing's.
"Look, I have it too."
Li Xing stared intently at Chu Yunyi's smiling eyes and asked through gritted teeth, "What is the Same Birth Talisman for?"
"It's a type of Life and Death Contract, divided into a master contract and a subordinate contract. The holder of the master contract can share the life span of the holder of the subordinate contract."
In her heart, Li Xing was in turmoil, but her tone grew calmer: "I guess, my darker one is the master contract, right?"
Chu Yunyi nodded: "That's right."
