This was the first time Ruan Qi knew that there was such a thing as a confidentiality contract.
She hesitated and asked worriedly: "Will signing a confidentiality contract have any negative impact on my family? For example, shortening my life span, affecting my luck, etc..."
When Bai Li heard this, she couldn't help but roll her eyes.
"Stinky girl, old man, I am an orthodox artifact, not one of those crooked ways. It's just a contract. As long as your family doesn't reveal the secret, the contract won't have any impact on them."
Ruan Qi felt relieved after hearing this.
She exited the system and said to Ruan Fengmian and others: "Dad, actually, that old man has been following me."
"?" Ruan Fengmian was stunned for a moment, "He has been following you? Is he the spirit behind you?"
Ruan Qi: "..."
Did her dad watch too many ghosts and gods? Why is his mind so big?
"He is not a spirit behind the scenes, nor is he a ghost. He is a spirit." Ruan Qi explained helplessly, "I just discussed it with him. He said he can meet with you, but dad, you must sign a confidentiality contract."
Ruan Fengmian: "Confidentiality contract?"
"Yes." Ruan Qi nodded, "The confidentiality contract is signed with spiritual power. If the signer leaks the secret to the outside world, he will be struck by five thunders."
The mortal body may not be able to withstand even one thunder, let alone five thunders.
Ruan Qi wanted everyone to think about it again, but Ruan Fengmian nodded and agreed without even thinking about it.
"Okay, I'll sign. Where are you, wife?"
Yang Liu, who was sitting aside, had not yet recovered from the shock of Ruan Qi's death.
Her eyes were a little red and she said hoarsely: "Of course I have to sign. That old man is Xiao Qi's savior. Even if I don't sign, I won't reveal his secret."
"I'll sign too." Ruan Munan followed her mother and said, "I want to thank him in person for saving my sister."
All three members of the Ruan family did not hesitate.
Nie Beilou and Xi Jiu were even less likely to miss this opportunity to communicate with Bai Li.
Seeing that everyone had made up their mind, Ruan Qi used her spiritual power to contact Bai Li.
"Uncle Bai Li."
"I heard it." Bai Li's voice rang in her mind, "I will make a contract right now."
Not long after Bai Li finished speaking, several strands of spiritual power rushed out of Ruan Qi's body.
They divided into five directions, rushed towards Ruan Fengmian, Xi Jiu and the others, and then got straight into their eyebrows.
In an instant, the contract was formed, and the spiritual imprint of the Baili artifact was imprinted in the sea of memories of several people.
All this happened so fast, it only took a few seconds from beginning to end, and Ruan Fengmian and others had not yet reacted.
At this moment, they suddenly heard a strange voice coming from the study.
"Girl Qi, get me a chair, I want to sit on it."
The voice sounded like that of an old man, but his tone was very lively.
When Ruan Qi heard Bai Li's request, she couldn't help but roll her eyes: "Uncle Bai Li, you are a spirit body and you are not tired. What chair should you sit on?"
"What's wrong with the spirit body? Can't the spirit body sit down? Go, go, go! Get me a chair!"
The Ruan family members, who were stunned on the spot, finally realized who the voice was.
Ruan Fengmian quickly pushed Ruan Munan: "Mu Nan, hurry up and move a single sofa outside."
Ruan Munan stood up and was about to leave.
But before he took two steps, he was stopped by an invisible force.
"There's no need to mobilize so much, just get a chair." Bai Li's lively and casual voice sounded again, "Just the one by the wall, Ruan boy, help me get it."
As soon as he finished speaking, the invisible force that was holding Ruan Munan away dissipated.
Ruan Munan suppressed the shock in his heart and quickly walked to the wall to move the chair.
Bai Li: "Just put it next to Qi Yatou. Oh, yes, yes, just leave it there. Boy from the Ruan family, give way, I'm coming out."
Ruan Munan immediately stepped aside.
The next moment, a white light suddenly lit up in the study room.
The white light is not dazzling, with a kind of holy gentleness.
Everyone in the Ruan family watched with bated breath. In the gentle white light, an ethereal figure slowly condensed.
The figure was very illusory, and only the outline and facial features could be vaguely discerned. He stepped out of the white light and floated to a chair to sit down.
"Hello everyone. This is the first time we meet. My name is Bai Li."
Bai Li's voice is very easy-going, with a bit of naughty liveliness, and is very familiar.
But none of the Ruan family responded.
They were all shocked by Bai Li's unmaterialistic way of appearing.
However, the Ruan family had seen strong winds and waves, and they quickly recovered from the shock.
Ruan Fengmian was the first to step forward: "Um...Senior Bai Li, hello. I am Xiaoqi's father, Ruan Fengmian."
With that said, he would reach out his hand and shake it politely with Bai Li.
But just as he reached halfway, Ruan Fengmian suddenly remembered that Bai Li was not a physical entity.
...This is a bit embarrassing.
Ruan Fengmian's gentle and handsome face showed a hint of apology.
Bai Li waved her hand indifferently: "We are all our own people, so don't worry about these details. I don't have enough spiritual power now to condense it into a solid body. When I can solidify it in the future, I can hold it as long as you want."
Ruan Fengmian couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.
The old god seems to be very easy-going, and he probably won't break the bond with his daughter casually.
Just don't untie it.
As long as he can keep his daughter alive, he is willing to recognize Bai Li as his ancestor.
For the sake of his daughter, Ruan Fengmian showed no airs in front of Bai Li. He said hello to Bai Li, and then prepared to introduce the Ruan family.
Bai Li interrupted him.
"No introduction is needed. I know all Qi Yatou's family members. I am bound to Qi Yatou. I can see what happens to her outside. You are all very good people."
After Ruan Fengmian heard this, he swallowed his words to introduce his family and prepared to thank him for saving Ruan Qi's life.
Bai Li seemed to know what he was going to say and interrupted him again.
"There is no need to say thank you. Old man, I have lived for tens of thousands of years, and Qi Yatou is the only one who binds me. The relationship between Qi Yatou and me is the same as that between you and her. I regard her as my own family. Save I also want her."
"So you don't have to be formal. I'm used to being casual, and it makes me uncomfortable if you're too formal."
Old man Bai Li always said whatever he wanted, and Ruan Qi also echoed: "Uncle Bai Li is right. Dad, don't be so nervous. Uncle Bai Li doesn't eat people, he has a good temper, and he was beaten a few days ago I’m pulling my beard.”
Bai Li: "..."
It goes without saying.
Can you leave a pair of underwear for the old man?
Under Ruan Qi's merciless exposure, the Ruan family finally understood Bai Li's true character, and their hearts dropped.
"Since Senior Bai Li said so, we won't be polite to you. Well...Senior Bai, can you eat some fruit? Can I wash some for you?"
Bai Li's eyes suddenly lit up.
