Suzaku leaned back slightly, took a deep breath, and suddenly exhaled a sea of flames.
"Red Flame!"
Fang Xian watched as the flames surged towards him like a tidal wave, and with a high-speed movement, easily dodged them.
"Sister, if you roast me, how can I stay with you?"
Suzaku gently wiped the flames from the corner of her mouth with her slender, jade-like fingers, and smiled alluringly.
"Don't worry, handsome little brother, I know my limits and won't hurt you."
"As long as you avoid my 'red flames', you will naturally become my plaything."
Fang Xian frowned. What did Suzaku mean by that?
Looking at the flames covering the ground, he suddenly realized what was happening.
"Red Flame" is a wide-range bombardment, and a normal person would jump up to avoid it. In other words, Suzaku deliberately forced Fang Xian into the air.
However, Fang Xian can fly and move freely in the air, so there are no restrictions on him.
In this case, it is very likely that...
Fang Xian looked up and saw that there was indeed something wrong with the stalactites hanging from the cave ceiling.
At first, he just thought the stalactite's glow was a bit strange and didn't pay much attention to it, but he didn't expect it to have hidden secrets.
A strange light fell upon him, drawing him towards the stalactites.
Suzaku made a cunning gesture, then made a heart shape with her hands and aimed it at Fang Xian.
"Burning Heart".
A series of heart-shaped flames shot towards Fang Xian and all entered his body.
Fang Xian seemed to be bewitched by something, his eyes becoming vacant.
Seeing this, Suzaku licked her red lips and chuckled.
"Handsome little brother, come down."
The strange light emanating from the stalactites dissipated, and Fang Xian slowly floated down, arriving beside Suzaku.
Suzaku looked at Fang Xian with great interest, her slender fingers gently lifting Fang Xian's chin.
"Handsome little brother, from now on you'll be your big sister's toy."
[Burning Heart: Those struck by this attack will become Vermilion Bird's puppet; the duration of the puppetry depends on the difference in "spiritual power" between the two.]
"It's been hundreds of years since the last puppet I played with to death. Finally, I have a new toy."
Suzaku gently stroked Fang Xian's handsome face, looking quite pleased with herself.
She looked down at Fang Xian with disgust, and a ball of flame ignited in her hand.
"Sister, first burn away the root of your sins, little brother."
Just as Suzaku was about to make a move, Fang Xian struck Suzaku in the chest with a palm.
He changed his palm into a claw and used only half his strength; otherwise, if he had used his full strength, Suzaku would have died.
Suzaku grunted and shuddered.
"Stop...stop..."
Fang Xian grinned mischievously and spoke with amusement.
"What a vicious sister! Your brother is of one mind with you, yet you two are playing mind games."
"You even want to ruin your brother? That's outrageous."
Suzaku looked distressed, his whole body trembled, and the flame in his hand went out instantly.
"You...how did you regain consciousness?"
"Could it be... that your mental strength is stronger than mine...?"
"Little Vermilion Bird, you dare to compare your mental strength with mine? I'll make you suffer."
Fang Xian increased the force, letting out a wicked laugh.
"By the way, sister, why can't you move? Is this your weakness?"
"you--"
Just as Suzaku was about to reprimand Fang Xian, Fang Xian increased his strength, rendering her unable to move.
That's really interesting.
"Sister, let's sign the contract."
"I'll let go, and then you'll let me go, okay?"
"I..."
Suzaku has now been caught red-handed by Fang Xian and has lost the opportunity to continue fighting, so he has no choice but to compromise.
"good..."
Fang Xian chuckled and revealed the contents of the agreement.
Suzaku looked bitter as he carefully read through the agreement. Finding nothing wrong, he nodded in agreement.
A black magic circle appeared beneath Fang Xian's feet, connecting to a black magic circle beneath Suzaku's feet.
Between the two, the words "Agreement" appeared in large letters.
"contract."
Suzaku confirmed it again and again, then nodded with a delighted expression.
"agree."
The black magic circle linking the two people shone brightly, merging into a large black magic circle.
A moment later, Fang Xian and Suzaku both felt the "power of the contract," and the contract was successful.
The light dimmed, and the black magic circle disappeared.
[Contract successful. Current contract partner: 16/16.]
