"Is this the only option? You should also understand what a Spirit Servant represents. Once this contract is combined, it can never be canceled in the future."

Chen Ang understood her concerns and immediately explained to her: "Don't worry, even if you become my Spirit Servant, I have a way for you to continue living as you did before, and you will absolutely not be affected in any way."

"If you cannot believe me, I can add another layer of guarantee. As long as you agree to become my Spirit Servant, I will assist you in avenging your people, to the death."

As soon as these words were spoken, her eyes immediately flickered.

After a moment of thought, she finally nodded and agreed: "Alright, let's do as you say. Initiate the contract; let's complete it as soon as possible and leave as soon as possible."

Since she was so straightforward, Chen Ang naturally wouldn't waste any more time.

Drafting the contract, Chen Ang dotted his own blood on the mermaid woman's forehead. In an instant, the blood emitted a golden light, and the content of the contract appeared in her mind.

She also carefully reviewed the content of the contract and found that Chen Ang had indeed not lied to her, so she quickly accepted the contract, and a small dragon mark appeared on her forehead.

"Alright, it's done. In a moment, you will enter the teleportation array with me and we will go out together."

After the contract was completed, relevant information about the mermaid woman appeared in Chen Ang's mind, including her name and life story.

At this moment, he realized that her identity was not simple, and at the same time, he had a deeper understanding of the Mermaid Race.

"Since you have your own name, I won't change it. When we go out, no matter what happens, our first priority is to run to a safe place. You and I can sense each other, and when it is no longer dangerous, we will gather again."

Chen Ang said, already driving the teleportation array.

He had learned these things in his team before; fortunately, he had listened to more useful things at the time, which allowed him to perform simple operations and repairs on this thing.

As he said this, the teleportation array lit up, and soon the scene around them changed.

When the light around them ended, Chen Ang's first action was to dodge. Sure enough, the next second, a hidden weapon attacked his position.

Shui Linglong hadn't anticipated Chen Ang's preparation, but the measures he had prepared protected both of them. After this wave of attacks ended, he took the initiative to throw out some things that could cover their escape. Once they took effect, Chen Ang took to his heels and dashed outward.

Shui Linglong didn't dare to delay, but they weren't familiar with this place, which looked like a cave. The two soon separated, and whether it was their good luck or not, they soon left the cave from different exits.

Although no one chased them out, Chen Ang could sense that his position was far from Shui Linglong's, and she seemed to have foreseen some danger.

"Could it be that those people went after her? What should I do? Right, teleportation. As long as I teleport her over, it should temporarily let her escape this danger."

Chen Ang had also learned about the Spirit Servant from an ancient book. Although many people had heard of this contract in their daily lives, very few people had actually received a Spirit Servant, so not many people knew that a Spirit Servant could be summoned by their master.

And this kind of summoning could appear by the master's side instantly, even if they were at the ends of the earth.

However, this kind of summoning would damage the bodies of both the master and the Spirit Servant, leaving the Spirit Servant in a weak state for a period of time.

But under the current circumstances, they had no other choice.

"This place is still a bit dangerous. I'd better go to an absolutely safe place before summoning her. This is safer for both of us."

Thinking this, Chen Ang also began to use the system to find the correct path.

The location they were in now was no longer near the Demon Race area. As for where exactly it was, Chen Ang couldn't tell for the time being. He only knew that it should be very far from where they were before, and he had never been to this place before.

According to his guess, this should be near the Mermaid Race, so there must be a sea area nearby, and he could confirm this through the system.

Because one of the paths he saw in the system also gave him a hint that he could find some deep-sea pearls and the like inside.

Thinking of the treatment of the Mermaid Race before, Chen Ang ultimately didn't choose that path but chose to walk toward another relatively safe place.

Soon, he arrived at a village.

This village looked like it had been newly built, and the atmosphere inside was quite harmonious. Seeing Chen Ang, an outsider, they were all interested, almost crowding around to watch.

To this, Chen Ang also politely asked: "I wonder if I can stay here?"

"This is naturally possible, but where did you come from? We don't really welcome outsiders here. It's fine to come and play, but if you want to stay, no one can guarantee whether it will attract any messy people."

These villagers were also reasonable, and they didn't want to cause trouble.

Fortunately, their attitude was still quite good. Chen Ang directly asked them: "Then I wonder where I should go?"

"There are still some treehouses in the back mountain of our place. If you are willing, you can stay there. But if anyone asks, we won't help you hide it."

These villagers were also quite honest.

To this, Chen Ang naturally couldn't cause trouble for them.

After buying some ingredients in the village, Chen Ang left the village and headed up the mountain.

Following the villagers' directions, he indeed found those treehouses.

He then began to do what he had to do, which was to summon Shui Linglong.

This summoning was not a difficult task, but it would waste some essence and physical strength.

Thinking this, he also began to act in the wooden house. In about an hour, Shui Linglong appeared in Chen Ang's house.

However, she had some obvious injuries on her body; she should have been captured and was being tortured.

Seeing the change in her surroundings, a look of surprise appeared in her eyes.

"Why am I here? Wasn't I captured by them?"

To this, Chen Ang calmly reassured her: "Don't worry, since I am here, I will definitely not let anything happen to you."

These words were absolutely capable of giving people a full sense of security. Sure enough, as soon as he said this, Shui Linglong's eyes immediately revealed gratitude.

She then began to thank Chen Ang.

"Thank you. I will definitely repay your great kindness."

"Let's not talk about this first. Let's deal with your injuries. My method of summoning you here can probably only be used once a year. Let alone whether your body can take it, my body is already a bit unable to take it."

Chen Ang said, coughing violently.

To this, Shui Linglong was naturally full of guilt.

"Is there anything I can do? Also, is this place safe? I seem to have something on me that can be tracked by them. I don't know when they will chase after us. We must solve this problem first."

Shui Linglong was terrified of those people, feeling nothing but immense fear in her heart.

Chen Ang hadn't expected what she said, and he was a bit flustered for a moment, but he didn't have any good way to solve this problem for the time being.

And now, all they could do seemed to be to continue fleeing.

"You carry this thing first; it should be able to temporarily suppress others from tracking you. But I don't know how much of the influence it can offset. No matter what, we must flee from this place as soon as possible."

Thinking this, he didn't forget to ask Shui Linglong: "You should know this place, right? Did you live in the nearby waters before?"

Hearing this, Shui Linglong naturally nodded.

Although she rarely went to land, she could still sense where she lived.

Now, she could feel that the sea area where she lived was probably only a few kilometers away, and she only felt deep fear for that sea area now, so she naturally wouldn't be willing to go back.

"Let's go in the opposite direction. I can sense that the sea area where I lived before is now too dangerous. Those Demon Race people have completely occupied that place. If we go there, it would be no different from throwing ourselves into a trap."

Shui Linglong was also worried that Chen Ang would be suspicious, so she told him the actual situation.

Chen Ang was quite surprised by Shui Linglong's honesty, but he didn't say much, just nodded in response. They naturally couldn't stay in this treehouse today; they could only say they were staying here temporarily to rest, and once they had rested enough, they would leave immediately.

Soon, he heard the even breathing of Shui Linglong on the bed.

For the remaining time, Chen Ang didn't idle either, but took out medicine to treat himself.

He didn't know how many situations they would encounter on the road ahead. Now, he could only keep his state as perfect as possible so that he could protect himself while also protecting Shui Linglong.

Moreover, he had also promised her to avenge her people. Just fulfilling this matter alone, he didn't know how much time it would take.

Thinking of this, Chen Ang felt a bit of a headache.

But since it was something he had promised, no matter what, he could only grit his teeth and complete it.

"This matter must be done no matter what. It's just become a bit more difficult now. Let's not say too much, lest Linglong hears it and gets some strange ideas in her heart."

Putting away his thoughts, Chen Ang began to wait. Shui Linglong didn't sleep for long before sitting up, seemingly worried that she would delay their journey.

Chen Ang could understand Shui Linglong's mood, but he was even more worried about her state and safety.

Therefore, seeing her weak state, Chen Ang couldn't help but ask: "Are you sure you can go on the road in this state? If we encounter any situation on the road, it will be very dangerous if you are not in good condition."

"I'm fine. Let's go quickly. The most important thing now is to go to a safe place to seek shelter. Actually, I think the most dangerous place might be the safest place now. There are countless dangerous areas in this territory. I seem to have heard before that there is a mountain range nearby. As long as people enter it, they never return. Maybe we can enter this mountain range to hide."

Chen Ang agreed with Shui Linglong's suggestion.

"What you said is indeed correct. To be able to say this, you must be quite familiar with this place. Since that's the case, let's listen to you. You lead the way, and we will enter the mountain you mentioned."

Chen Ang didn't know the environment and location nearby; it could be said that he was completely in the dark. Now that Shui Linglong was here, at least in this regard, they could save a lot of time.

Hearing Chen Ang say this, the two of them acted. Shui Linglong followed her memory and soon brought Chen Ang to that cannibal mountain range.

"This mountain doesn't have a specific name, because people are always going missing here, so most people call it the Cannibal Mountain Range. And this place is indeed a bit strange. After ordinary people enter, it is difficult to leave."

Chen Ang listened to Shui Linglong's explanation. Chen Ang was even more curious about this place. After all, from the outside, apart from the fact that the situation inside was difficult to detect, the outside was also shrouded in a very thick fog, making it impossible for people to see the situation inside. It was indeed a good place to hide.

As for the specific situation inside, he would only know after entering. ===== CHAPTER 1058 =====
