Really Dead?

[Oath Contract]s were not impossible to dissolve.

An Oath Contract initiated unilaterally could be dissolved unilaterally by the beneficiary of the oath.

For instance, if A swore never to harm B, then B could unilaterally dissolve the Oath Contract.

An Oath Contract jointly initiated by both parties, however, required both parties to acknowledge "dissolving the contract" before it could be dissolved.

Beyond that, there was also a special method.

That was when one party to the oath died unexpectedly.

The deceased could no longer fulfill their contractual obligations or enjoy the contract's benefits, and would automatically be deemed by the rules to have acknowledged "dissolving the contract."

At that point, as long as the other party gave up the benefits brought by the Oath Contract and also acknowledged "dissolving the contract," the [Oath Contract] would automatically become void.

Chen Ding temporarily withdrew from the puppet's vision and checked his Data Panel.

After several hours of training, he had followed the Blade Manual Lu Li had given him and formed the Mad Blade's First Three Layers of blade techniques on his Data Panel.

Although they were all merely beginner-level Lv.1, they had indeed taken shape as blade techniques.

In other words, the Blade Manual Lu Li had given him was genuine.

Now that he had obtained the benefits of the [Oath Contract], there was naturally no need for him to remain constrained by it.

In a world without restraints, no one would snatch to pay after receiving the goods.

Having thought through the matter, Chen Ding took out the Oath Contract and silently recited in his heart.

"I acknowledge the dissolution."

Then, amid everyone's astonished and confused stares, the contract in Chen Ding's hand burst into flames and swiftly burned into ash.

"Pavilion Master, what are you doing? Dissolving the contract..."
