Though he hadn't admitted it outright, his words were as good as a confession.
Su Ya and Peng Yan's expressions changed in an instant, their hearts a mixture of shock and fury.
They never imagined Huo Nan could be so utterly depraved!
To kill Pei Ze, he had actually stooped to making a deal with a heretic!
If this ever got out, there would be no place for him in all of Chenxi City!
Pei Ze, however, remained as calm as ever. He said lightly, "You trust Huo Nan's promise that much? Aren't you afraid he'll go back on his word?"
The man scoffed. "He's welcome to try, provided he isn't afraid of the backlash from the Soul Contract."
The Soul Contract was a type of trade agreement.
Both parties would swear an oath on their souls. If either side violated the terms, their soul would be instantly annihilated. Not even a Wizard who had mastered Rule Power could save them. It was known as one of the most stringent contracts in existence.
