Yu Ziqing certainly wasn't deceiving Honggaitou; the saint identity hanging on him was real.
Even if it was just in name, without actually cultivating as a saint, he was indeed involved in the cultivation of saints.
The tattoo carried by Fish Bone came from him; to hold the name of a saint wasn't entirely nonsense.
And his research into rituals, sacrificial techniques, and forces to borrow from was all genuine.
At this moment, everything being done was in accordance with the established contract.
No matter how much Honggaitou's mindset exploded, it was already useless.
He was now in a worse state than the force he was being controlled to borrow from; he couldn't even control his own strength, beyond his consciousness.
Yu Ziqing merely experimented with a small ritual, and his mind began to grow interested in another matter.
He wanted to understand what this so-called ancient contract was really about.
