    "I started by forcefully kissing the coffin lid, and I brought the female corpse general back to life!" A blood-jade coffin was unearthed at the construction site, and the workers died tragically amidst the overwhelming evil aura. Lu Li, a half-baked geomancer, was forced to suppress the evil spirit. His ancestral scroll read: "To form an extraordinary contract, one must transfer yang energy through the mouth!" Seeing the corpse king break the seal—he pounced on the coffin and kissed it wildly: "Wife! Come home with me to warm the bed!" The phantom in the coffin roared in fury: "You lecherous scoundrel, I, the general, will kill you!" The next second, the contract was bound, and resentment surged straight to his dantian! From then on, his yang energy was drained, and she was forced to listen to his lewd words. Bai Zhi: "Break the contract! Otherwise, I'll slaughter your entire family!" Lu Li: "Killing me is suicide... Wife, would you like to suck some yang energy first?" #Suspense #Supernatural #Contract #Lighthearted
