CHAPTER 349: CHAPTER 349: CELIA’S DECISION, SYMBIOTIC CONTRACT!

Hearing Celia’s explanation, Gorandis was shocked and said, "Young lady, are you crazy?"

"Just to send a message, you’d rather sacrifice half of your life?"

Xilan also said solemnly, "The lifespan of a regular Elf is around six to seven hundred years. You, as a Half-Elf, have a shorter lifespan, probably only about five hundred years."

"Moreover, Half-Elves are different from true Elves. The Symbiotic Contract for Half-Elves is incomplete; it only allows them to share their lifespan with others but cannot receive lifespan shared by others."

"If you make a contract with the young brother, you’re basically losing around 250 years of your lifespan for nothing. The price is really..."

Li Haotian looked at Xilan in surprise.

A Symbiotic Contract of a Half-Elf can only share life with others? It was the first time he had heard of such a thing.

Li Haotian looked at Celia earnestly and said, "Celia, I know you’re worried about the Demon Envoy, but losing half of your life is no joke."

"Forget about the Symbiotic Contract. I promise you, once I finish my matters, I will come to the Arad Continent as soon as possible."

Celia thought for a moment, looked around at the desolate land, and a hint of determination flashed in her eyes.

She said solemnly, "Haotian, I believe your words, but do you remember, before, Duke Yuris said, even if the Delos Empire realizes something is wrong, it’s already too late."

"For Deregi to dare spread the plague so brazenly means it is not afraid of drawing the attention of the Delos Empire and other empires on the continent."

Bain was suddenly shocked, "You mean..."

Celia took a deep breath, "Yes, I think Deregi has likely already prepared in secret to invade the entire continent, and it won’t be long before it launches!"

She lightly shook her head, her expression firm, "Compared to the safety of the entire continent, my life is insignificant!"

"Sosia-sister, Alice-sister, and the friends from Hedonmar, they have done so much for me. Even if it’s for their safety, I am willing to give up these years of life!"

"What’s more..." Celia gave Li Haotian a steady gaze, then smiled brightly, "Haotian, to be honest, ever since I first saw you, I’ve felt a familiar warmth."

"Although this warmth isn’t as strong as the one I feel when I meet Frey, I am sure it’s not an illusion."

"Perhaps, this is our destined connection?"

"So, Haotian, please join me in a Symbiotic Contract, I beg you!" Celia bowed deeply to Li Haotian.

"This..." Seeing Celia’s determination to make the contract, Li Haotian felt a bit helpless.

What’s with this world, why is everyone altruistically extending my life?

"Celia, are you sure?" Li Haotian finally asked.

"I’m sure!" Celia replied without hesitation.

Li Haotian nodded helplessly, "Alright, I’ll make the Symbiotic Contract with you."

When Li Haotian agreed, Celia cheerfully said "Mm" and unhesitatingly raised her hand to gently press her forehead, then drew out a peculiar jade-green line, directing it towards Li Haotian.

She maintained a solemn expression, slightly parting her lips, uttering a series of enigmatic syllables.

The syllables were very similar, about seventy to eighty percent, to those when Frey made her contract, with only some slight differences.

When the final word escaped her lips, a strong jade-green glow burst from both Li Haotian and herself.

Afterward, Li Haotian felt a familiar and unique energy coming from Celia, flowing throughout his entire body.

Li Haotian felt revitalized, knowing that this was the life force Celia shared with him!

Combined with Frey’s previous contract, Li Haotian’s lifespan was now nearly reaching a millennium.

Even a regular Elf’s lifespan wasn’t as long as his!

After completing the contract, Celia said sincerely, "From now on, you’re my partner too."

Li Haotian admiredly glanced at her, "As partners, if you’re in danger, you can always call for me. I will come as fast as I can."

Celia was slightly taken aback, then she beamed a bright smile, "Mm!"

After saying that, Li Haotian said to Xilan and the others, "Farewell, I’ll take my leave now."

"Spitz, let’s go." Li Haotian looked at the miniature Spitz who had been quietly following.

Spitz, though reluctant for not avenging his brothers, thought of Li Haotian returning soon and didn’t make a fuss, agreeing, "Yes, master!"

Traveling with Li Haotian, it was the first time Xilan and the others heard Spitz speak, and they were all taken aback.

"Roaaar—!"

With a ferocious dragon roar, Spitz’s body expanded dramatically in the wind, transforming into a fearsome massive creature, appearing in mid-air.

A malevolent and overwhelming aura exploded forth!

Xilan and the others had their hair standing on end, watching in shock.

Li Haotian had told them about his origins, but not about Spitz’s.

Xilan, while sensing that the Dragon Clan companion following Li Haotian was strong, had never imagined it was this powerful!

Bain stammered, "A pure, purebred Giant Dragon!?"

Xilan incredulously exclaimed, "Such a dragon presence, the bloodline is terrifyingly high!"

Aganzo stared intently at Spitz, mumbling, "Spitz? That name sounds familiar, where have I seen it before?"

Li Haotian, carrying Frey, jumped onto the dragon’s back, saying to everyone, "Farewell my friends, until we meet again!"

Spitz disdainfully glanced at Xilan and the others, then with its massive claws, tore open a huge Space Channel and vanished into it.

Just as Li Haotian’s figure disappeared, Aganzo suddenly remembered something and couldn’t help exclaiming, "I remember now!"

"Spitz... It’s one of the Three Great Dragon Generals from the Ancient Times’ Dragon War, following the Violent Dragon King Bakar, known as the Evil Dragon with an Undying Body, Spitz!"

"What! This is the Undying Dragon from Ancient Times?" Xilan’s eyes widened.

Bain was dumbfounded, "Whoa! Haotian is this amazing?"

"The Ancient Times’ Evil Dragon Spitz, even Haotian’s pet is of a kingly rank!?"

Gorandis muttered, "Legend has it, Spitz was violent and fearless due to its Undying Body."

"Historical powers tried and failed to tame it, and were forced to dismember and seal Spitz deep beneath an Elf Tribe."

"That Elf Tribe later became the Dark Elf Clan, eventually exiled along with the Azeroth Continent."

"For Li Haotian to tame Spitz, just how strong is he really..."
