The Pagoda Quells the Awoos

A medical clinic in Jinzhou with abundant experience treating fox spirits, fish spirits, bear spirits, snake demons, and all manner of creatures. No ailment is beyond its expertise. A century-old business, fair to customers of every age.

As of today, it is officially closing its doors!

The young physician Yin Yang decides to shut up shop and travel in search of Kun, the spirit beast he was charged with protecting, who has run away. Then he trips and falls into a foul-smelling ditch, accidentally placing the protective life-binding seal on a wet, stinking dog in the ditch.

The protective life-binding seal is a pact between a mortal and a spirit beast, sealed with a kiss. They protect one another and stay together for life.

Yin Yang and the dog stare at each other in a daze. After a long moment, he raises a trembling hand to the dog's face. "Y-you... Have you become a spirit? Can you talk? You're not just an ordinary dumb dog, are you? QQAQQ"

The stinking dog grits his teeth and howls at the sky. "I'm a wolf, damn it!!"

When Lang Fei was first picked up by Yin Yang, he was gravely wounded. He thought he would eat this annoying human as soon as he recovered.

Once he got his wish, the gray wolf licked his lips in satisfaction. Not bad. He'd take another bite.

Don't rush to toss out the stinking dog you picked up. Raise him for a while, and he'll turn into your boyfriend. That's what Yin Yang thought.

One day after a battle, Lang Fei stood with a sword in hand amid the corpses of demons and evil spirits, his fluffy tail swaying back and forth.

"Xiao Yang, do you regret making that life-binding pact with me?" Lang Fei's emerald wolf eyes flickered. His smile looked both sly and dangerous. "You're still determined to look for that Kun? Hmm?"

"Did your master ever explain the life-binding seal to you properly?"

"We protect one another and stay together until death." The gray wolf threw back his head and howled at the moon, then gently lifted Yin Yang onto his back in his jaws.

"Xiao Yang, we'll stay together until death."
