.
Hand over her life? Die if he dies?
Ethan was caught a bit off guard by this information and couldn't help but glance at the elental spirit, who seed to be waiting for his response.
Seeing her serious expression, Ethan couldn't help but ask:
"Just one thing, do you understand what it ans to hand over your contract to ?" he asked, thinking that perhaps the green-haired woman might not fully grasp the consequences of such an action.
He wouldn't have been surprised if she didn't know. After all, she had lost her mories, so for all he knew, she might not understand the significance of doing sothing like this.
Or at least, that's what he had assud, but to his surprise, she nodded her head and said,
"Yes, I'm binding myself to you," she said as if it was nothing.
Seeing this, Ethan was left speechless once again.
'Woman, why do you say it like it's no big deal?' he thought, shaking his head.
"Do you realize we've only known each other for less than a day?" he asked, trying for a mont to reason with her.
A contract with a spirit was tempting even for him, especially now that he knew its benefits, but he felt that accepting it so hastily was like he was tricking the spirit.
She nodded again without saying a word.
"And you're truly okay with giving your contract to soone you barely know?" he asked, unsure of how to get his point across.
For a mont, he thought the spirit lacked common sense here.
But to his surprise, the green-haired woman said,
"Of course I wouldn't give my contract away as if it were nothing to just anyone," she said with a pout.
Before Ethan could say anything else, she continued,
"I can sense that you're a good person, so you won't harm if I give you my contract. And more importantly, I feel that it would also be very beneficial for to bind myself to you," she said.
'Beneficial for her?' He wasn't entirely sure what exactly would be beneficial for her.
He had a rare physique that not only helped him cultivate much faster but also could endure much more than one rare flas, and it could apparently even absorb demonic Qi and tabolize it, giving him the power to transform into a demon himself.
He also had the anfora, which brought several benefits for him, but none of this seed to be anything that could help an elental spirit.
'Maybe my special physique has so other function I don't know about,' he thought, rembering that both his and Bai Yu's knowledge of it was very limited.
He wouldn't have been surprised if there was indeed sothing like that.
In the end, he decided to accept the contract.
Considering everything he had learned, this contract would only benefit him, and he couldn't see any downsides to it. So he didn't think too much about it and agreed.
He raised his palm, ready to form a soul contract, but then rembered that this wasn't a soul contract but rather a spiritual contract.
'How does one stipulate a spiritual contract?' he asked Bai Yu uncertainly.
Hearing this, Bai Yu realized he had decided to accept the elental spirit.
Just as she was about to explain how it worked, the green-haired woman, who had heard Ethan agree, beca excited and dashed toward him.
Huh?
Bai Yu, who was just about to explain the process, stopped when she saw the green-haired woman happily throw herself at Ethan.
Just as she was about to ask what she was doing, her mouth fell open when she saw the woman's next action.
She wrapped her arms around Ethan's neck, who didn't imdiately resist, pulled her face close to his, and to the surprise of both him and Bai Yu, kissed him on the lips.
'What?'
Bai Yu, who witnessed this scene, was stunned for a mont by the green-haired woman's sudden action.
Soon, a burst of anger erupted in her as she rushed toward her.
But before she could even get close and grab her, the green-haired woman's body began to glow intensely with a soft green light, and in the blink of an eye, she crumbled into countless particles of green light that entered Ethan.

A symbol resembling a delicate leaf appeared on Ethan's hand, where he felt a burning sensation for a mont, but it soon faded as the symbol silently disappeared, just as it had appeared.
Ethan didn't have ti to process this when he felt a sudden surge of power within him, and a faint green hue began to surround him.
At the sa ti, he could feel his cultivation base slowly rising, and not only that.
He began to feel invisible connections forming throughout his being as his senses seed to expand.
'This...'
He wasn't certain, but he could feel several signs of life deep within the land of the demonic continent and beyond.
He also felt a strong concentration of these life signs coming from two specific directions.
More precisely, from the direction of the beast continent and the human continent.
Ethan imdiately realized what it was and couldn't help but murmur:
"I can feel all beings with spiritual wood Qi."
Ethan was now certain that he could sense the presence of all plants and even, more generally, any being that contained spiritual wood Qi.
He could say he felt his affinity with the wood elent had risen to entirely new heights, reaching levels he hadn't even known existed.
He felt these points of life as though they were part of him.
It was as if he could tell what was happening to them and, in a certain sense, was sure he could even communicate with them.
But then he rembered the green-haired woman who seed to have dissolved into particles, and he wondered what had happened to her.
Ethan, who like Bai Yu, had been caught off guard by the elental spirit's sudden action, was left bewildered by the following series of events.
But now that he had cald down a bit, he suddenly felt a chill run down his spine as he slowly turned his head to the side.
There he saw the dragon woman standing in the air with a clearly displeased expression.
"What?" he asked, uncertain about the situation.
He didn't know why, but he felt that the days ahead would not be peaceful for him.
