Jue

**Jue** was one of the children of the Zhiren house, an orphanage-like place where unwanted children with spiritual powers were trained as monks in order to assist the Yangming Masters when they were unable to complete the rituals on their own, since a ritual could not be interrupted. This, however, could exhaust the monk and even cause their death, as they lacked the spiritual power of a Yangming priest.

Jue had similar talent and spiritual powers to Duanmu Xi and as a result he was seen as the best choice to assist a Yangming Master. In terms of personality, however, he was the exact opposite of him. He was not capable of empathy, compassion or any emotions at all and had no interest in other people or the world. Even Master Ling, who used to teach in the Zhiren house for free before it was closed, could not change him and make him feel something.

When Duanmu Xi became the head of the Duanmu family, he, with the support of Shenlong Zhangxuan, closed the Zhiren house and all the children were sent back to their families, including Jue who was 11 or 12 years old at the time. A few years later however, Duanmu Xi abandoned his position as a Yangming priest and ran away from the Duanmu household. After a month of no sacrifices, a great spiritual disturbance was created that even the combined power of several ordinary priests was unable to fix, as they could only hold on for a short while. It was then decided for the Zhiren house to reopen and bring back the children that Duanmu Xi had sent away in order to assist them. That’s when 13-year-old Jue decided to kill his 16 fellow student monks and himself as sacrifices, but he was only stopped before he sacrificed himself, leaving none of the innocent children alive. He showed no remorse or guilt for the massacre, since he didn’t find it wrong and even compared it to killing livestock.

   Later, he was taken in by Dr. Sen, who wished to study him, since he had a spiritual body type similar to Duanmu Xi, whom he considered the ultimate research material.

When Dr. Sen got the opportunity to blackmail Duanmu Xi into coming to his military research facility to become the subject of his unethical experiments, Jue attempted to kill him. While Xi managed to escape his first try, he was not so lucky the second time, when Jue activated the electrical fence of the facility, while he was escaping with Yang Jinghua and Shenlong Zhangxuan, which stopped his heart temporarily. After that Jue told Yang Jinghua that ever since he saw him fighting in the forest to protect Duanmu Xi, he had set his sights on making him his own, hoping to become as powerful as him in the future, and now that Duanmu Xi was gone, he was the only god left in this world. Hearing these words and thinking that he had lost Xi forever, Jinghua despaired so much that he turned into a demon and destroyed Jue’s soul, leaving his body just an empty living shell.

## Ling Qi

**Ling Qi** (灵契), also known as **Spiritpact** or **Soul Contract**,is a Chinese web manhua written by Pingzi and illustrated by Haoliners Huimeng Animation. It is published by Tencent via Tencent Comic (link).

## Synopsis

Yang Jinghua, a 23 year old, poverty-stricken boy, struggles to make ends meet, after his family died in a horrible catastrophe many years ago. One night, while looking for spare computer parts in a dumpyard, he runs into a young, white-haired man performing an exorcism in that place. After being told to get out of there, Yang Jinghua gets run over by a truck while crossing the road right outside the dumpyard. Later, he wakes up in the hospital and notices that he has taken on the appearance he had as a teenager, about 9 years ago. Yang Jinghua optimistically thinks that he has been reborn and is on his way to a new, better life, until Duanmu Xi, the white-haired, handsome guy he had met earlier, appears and shatters his dreams. Yang Jinghua has actually died in a horrible accident and his soul has seven days at most to wander on earth, before disappearing for good. Duanmu Xi, however, makes an intriguing offer. If he signs a contract with him and assists him in his duties, he will be able to remain in this world as long as Xi is alive. Will Yang Jinghua accept this contract and manage to overcome his weaknesses in order to protect the person he will grow to love the most?

Yin Huayu

*This entry is for the manhua character. See Kau for the anime/donghua equivalent.*

**Yin Huayu** is an earth spirit that resides in Jingling mountain. She is Yinzhe’s most loyal and trusted follower.

Yin Huayu had been following Duanmu Xi for years, dreaming to become his shadow spirit, like Yinzhe was to Xi’s father, Duanmu Yin. However, her hopes were crushed when Duanmu Xi gave the position to Yang Jinghua. Furious that a random ghost took her dream job, she challenged him to a fight in front of Xi and other spirits that had come to check the new shadow spirit, but she ultimately lost.

   After that, she immediately went to inform Yinzhe about Yang Jinghua and together they entered the Duanmu household grounds, so that Yinzhe could meet him himself. When they got him alone on the roof of Xi’s quarters, Yinzhe began insulting and provoking him, but was interrupted by Duanmu Xi who warned him to stay away from Yang Jinghua.

As Yinzhe didn’t get any answers about why Xi had suddenly decided to take a shadow spirit after swearing not to and why he had chosen such a weak guy instead of him, he resolved to test Yang Jinghua’s power in order to see what talents he was hiding. Since he had promised Xi not to harm him, he took some of his followers, including Yin Huayu and Long Yu, and inside a barrier he had created, he managed to pass them through the Duanmu household’s own barrier and trap Yang Jinghua inside it. The demons immediately started insulting and beating him, with Long Yu temporarily cutting his hand off his spiritual body and Yinzhe punching him after Jinghua touched the sensitive subject of Duanmu Yin. All this led Yang Jinghua to unlock his true power, break Yinzhe’s barrier and transform into his powerful adult form after taking the Luoyue sword. He then killed dozens of Yinzhe’s demons with it, while the rest of them escaped. When Yinzhe saw Jinghua’s adult form he finally understood what was so special about him. As he explained to Huayu, he was actually the descendant of the one-armed swordsman, Yang Ning Zicheng, a powerful exorcist who lived a thousand years ago and was feared even by the strongest of demons.

Yin Huayu had always been wholeheartedly loyal to Yinzhe, as she took care of him when he was at his weakest after using his 1000-year-old cultivation to restore Duanmu Xi's body, which resulted in him reverting back to his original fox form. When Duanmu Xi made Yinzhe teach Yang Jinghua, she made sure to thank Xi about it, since Yinzhe seemed to be a lot happier after taking on that role. She was the only spirit that Yinzhe trusted enough to discuss Duanmu Xi's state and safety with her. Later, when Shenlong Xiren hypnotized the demons of the mountain, including Yinzhe and her, and Yinzhe decided to isolate himself in his mountain cave in order to recover and hide from Yang Jinghua and Duanmu Xi, Yin Huayu kept him informed about the affairs related to the Duanmu household.

Reacting with alarm, outside Jinghua and Situ note an uproar and find Qin angrily berating Xi from outside the house. Qin whirls round, incensed she demands to know why Jinghua is the only one who can enter Xi's room whenever he likes and also that she hates him.

With no idea what is going on Jinghua enters Xi's room to find him sat in bed despondent. Jinghua asks if there is anyone who is actually on good terms with him. Asked what he means, Jinghua envisions Lu as an example that Xi's relationships with the people here is really bad. He feels there is something wrong with Xi's personality and states that the leader is supposed to understand their followers and care about their reputation.

Asking what does he know, Xi tells Jinghua to not go around gossiping about his family. Jinghua is just saying that he has confirmed that Xi has a really bad personality, but Xi does not care. No matter how they treat him, they are dependant on him anyway and that the family is finished without him.

*This entry is for the manhua character. See Obaa-Sama for the anime/donghua equivalent.*

**Great-grandmother** is the eldest member of the Duanmu household. She joined the family when she was 16 years old, a century ago, and has outlived 5 generations of Yangming Masters. Even though she is not the head of the family, she holds great power in the house. When family members are unhappy with the head or there is a family dispute, she is often called upon to intervene in the situation.

Some consider her cold and ruthless for bearing to watch her husband, children and other relatives die on the altar. However, this is only because she knows the sacrifice is for a noble, higher cause and she would never harm her family for anyone or anything else.
Chapter 16

## Chapter Sixteen

This is the sixteenth chapter of the Spiritpact manhua. Qin is rescued from the corrupting spirits and Jinghua covers for her by stating that he was responsible for her state. The three of them make for the Duanmu household before other spirits return.

## Appearances

* Qin Shiyao
* Yang Jinghua
* Duanmu Xi

## Plot Synopsis

Black mist dissipates from Qin as she floats to the ground. Determined and still holding his sword tight, Jinghua then asks if she is okay. Silent as she lays on the floor, Xi asks miss Qin why, why did she want to attack his soul image, what happened.

Glowering, Qin begins to reply before Jinghua intervenes to cover her actions with the white lie that he peeked at her on the shower. Qin cannot believe seeing Jinghua explain to Xi that he realised that he could phase though walls. With that he wanted to see what peeking at girls in the shower was like.

Of course he did something like that, as Jinghua laughs this remark off from Xi, more so when Xi calls him scum and asks where is his sense of shame. As Qin looks on, Jinghua continues to support this lie to cover her actions that he has always been this low-born and has thought about trying this long ago.

With tears in her eyes, Qin thinks she will not thank him but even so, as Jinghua looks back to see her. He understands, this kind feeling, to be willing to throw away your dignity yet also wanting to protect your love, that frame of mind. Recalling as he was strangled, the feeling of pain Jinghua felt at the time was in fact her innermost feelings. That kind of feeling, Jinghua does not know why but he truly felt it.

Xi does not forget, stopping at the door he turns to Qin and tells her to come along as well. It is too dangerous outside after all, the evil spirits might come back and the Duanmu household has better protection.

With a mix of delight and wonder, Qin questions just to be sure that he is inviting her to his home. In the middle of asking her if she does not want to come or not, Qin has vanished behind a folding screen to instantly emerge pristine and glamorously dressed. She politely insist that she cannot possibly reject his hospitality, she is so sorry to impose on him.

Jinghua is horrified, of her elegant look and mannerisms and that even her luggage has been packed so fast.

## Notes and Trivia

* The painful sensation of Jinghua being choked and drowning in Chapter 13 was him feeling Qin’s inner pain.

* Where clothing attire is concerned, Xi’s choice of footwear can be seen on page 3.

Youko Sennen

*This entry is for the character from the donghua. See Yinzhe for the manhua equivalent.*

**Youko Sennen** or **In Tetsu** was a former spirit shadow of a Youmeishi, but now he is a demon master of Mount Ura.

## Appearance

Youko's most striking physical feature is his orange crowned red hair, grown long and reaching down to his back. It is kept it tied in place. He has distinctive pointed ears and wears a white and gold-lined coat with a raised collar.

## Personality

Youko is a very cool and arrogant man. Despite this he still has a humorous side to him and can act caring around those he cares for. Not much else is known about his personality.

## Role in the Story

Youko is the spirit shadow of the previous Youmeishi and Ki's father, Gin. He is also the trainer of Keika.

## Relationships

### Ki Tanmoku

In Tetsu tends to be very possessive and protective over Ki Tanmoku. In Tetsu is repeatedly seen telling Ki that he owns Mount Ura and subsequently everything on it, including Ki himself. He's protective and possessive behavior could stem from them being previous partners or from his respect of Ki's father. Though despite them generally getting along, he does tend to get in fights with Ki over Keika, as In Tetsu believes that he is a better choice for a spirit shadow. Ki will get hostile with In Tetsu if he feels that he is threatening harm towards Keika.

In Tetsu often questions Ki's motives in regards to Keika. Questioning why he would go so far for a spirit shadow and even angrily confronting Ki about the soul binding circle he was researching. Overall, their relationship is tumultuous at best, but generally, In Chen wants what is best for Ki.

### You Keika

In Tetsu is initially seen as hostile and condescending towards Keika when they first meet. He often refers to Keika as a dog on a leash bound to his master. He keeps telling Keika that he is not the right choice for a spirit shadow and is weak. During the two major fights, we see them get into, Keika is outmatched by In Tetsu, further upsetting Keika. Upon taking Keika on as his apprentice, reluctantly so, he starts him off at basic level lessons, including holding a boulder while squatting and basic talisman making. He also told him, do not let anyone else but me defeat you. This later results in In Tetsu telling him that if he finds someone he cannot fight, do not risk his life and run, similar to what Ki told Keika when they first met him.

His pride was damaged after the final battle with the Senriyuu head. Of all the youkai and spirits present, the only one not affected by Senriyuu's hypnosis was Keika. This is due to him not wanting anything from Yomeishi. This results in him heading off into the woods to train, assuming to become better than Keika. HIs overall reaction to the events was quite sobering, but It is currently unknown what his stance is on Keika.

Placing the shawl down, Jinghua affirms that Xi is right, he is very strong. Yet as he said spirits are after Xi's power as Jinghua takes Xi's face into his hands. Explaining this, Jinghua places himself on top of Xi and asks if he took all of his power, what does he think would happen.

I believe the stories can fly

You are dancing in the sunshine

We can feel endless time

Nightingale

Dandelions

Travel in the rain

Our memories

Happen to be yours and mine

All my dreams

Will always be right by your side

I am waiting for the moonlight

I believe stars are in your eyes

You are dancing in the moonlight

Where you stand, be paradise

## Plot Synopsis

Before an alter Xi attaches a spell tag to the tip of his sword and holding it near Jinghua's forehead he sees it is the eight characters of Xi's birth time.

Jinghua is instructed to read the vows aloud. One of the three people holding the scroll helps Mr. soul image by saying he just has to read the vows written on the large scroll they are holding.

The text that Jinghua is to say aloud is that he voluntarily becomes the sixty third Yanming master, Duanmu Xi's soul image. Using the spirit binding rings as the contract, he is to declare they are the shared souls accompanying the other never to be separated.

Whirling around to confront Xi, Jinghua asks what the heck is this. He cannot read this out loud, it is embarrassing. Checking the scroll again, he asks what is with this place, it feels like a wedding, he is not the one who is Xi's fiancé. Xi's fiancé is glowering murderously at Jinghua. Shiyao Qin orders to hurry up and read the vow and get off the platform, she has had enough of this ceremony.

A young man appears and addresses the great young master Xi on why he did not invite him here to such a big thing like the acknowledgement of contract ceremony. Xi and Jinghua observe Situ Li restrained by his father who tries to apologize to everyone on behalf of his son. Lu shouts to Xi to not think he will be afraid to hurt him now he has a soul image. Continuing that he had better remember that god sees all and what he owes he must pay back.

Sarcastically asking how much money Xo owes him, Jinghua inquires what Lu was doing here crashing Xi's party. He replies there are people who do not like him everywhere, and whether he has to deal with every single one of them.

With that interruption, in the end Jinghua did not have to read the vow and the ceremony was over just like that. Heading to his room Xi is going to bed and does not want to be disturbed. As he thinks about Lu, Xi's grandmother, among others Jinghua feels like this family with these sorts of people makes it such a complicated place.

Overlooking the city below Jinghua also notes a feeling that a lot of trouble is to come.

## Notes and Trivia

* Xi's birthday is revealed to Jinghua, the eight characters of birth time are imparted to him.
* The vows on becoming a soul image are similar to that of a wedding.
* Lu Situ is aware of something Xi must pay back and a god that can see all is mentioned.

Duanmu Luoyue

Duanmu Siping (Descendant) †

Duanmu Siyun (Descendant)

Duanmu Lian (Descendant) †

Duanmu Yin (Descendant) †

Unnamed brother †

*This entry is for the character from the manhua. See Tanmoku Rakugetsu for the anime/donghua equivalent.*

**Duanmu Luoyue** was a talented priest of the Duanmu Family who lived a thousand years ago and became the first Yangming Master in history. He is, also, the ancestor of Duanmu Xi, who currently serves as the 63rd Yangming Master.

At some point, Luoyue lost his mind and became a legendary demon who ruined many ancient civilizations and nearly destroyed humanity. His spirit was eventually sealed with the Luoyue sword in the bloodline of the Yang Family, by his servant and best friend Yang Ning Zicheng. However, since the last descendant of the Yang Family, Yang Jinghua, died in a car accident, the seal loosened and would have been broken once Jinghua's spirit disappeared after the 7 day limit that souls have on earth after their death. Duanmu Xi happened to witness the death of Yang Jinghua and the appearance of Duanmu Luoyue. In order to prevent his revival, he made a bet with Luoyue that he would make Yang Jinghua his spirit shadow, allowing him this way to remain on earth and keep the seal intact.

Despite this, Luoyue is still waiting for Yang Jinghua to disappear or is trying to turn him into a demon, which will allow him to break free from his seal and resume the destruction of humanity.

## Appearance

Luoyue has long, platinum blonde hair and eyelashes and purple eyes. He is dressed in a long white robe and coat with a purple belt around his waist, combined with a pair of long purple earrings and two white ribbons around his wrists. He, also, wears a white ribbon on his forehead, with which he covers his eyes after the loss of his left eye.

## Personality

Before he descended into madness, he used to be a kind and gentle soul, giving blessings to the land he lived in. He valued all life in the world and preferred to sacrifice his own life force, rather than poor, innocent people, no matter how insignificant they were, and didn't expect anything in return. His gentleness was noted by his servant, Yang Ning Zicheng. After he turned into a demon he became the complete opposite of what he was, even saying that as much as he loved the world while he was alive, he hates it even more than that now that he is dead.

## Trivia-Etymology

* **Duanmu** means "end, carry, port, extremity, fringe, item, regular" (端) (**duan**) and "wood/wooden/made of wood, timber, tree" (木) (**mu**).
* **Luoyue** means "drop, fall, alight, go down, decline, lag, set, lower, leave behind, missing/be missing, drop behind, swoop" (落) (**luo**) and "month, moon" (月) (**yue**), which literally means "falling moon" altogether.
Jimei Tanmoku

*This entry is for the character from the donghua. See Duanmu Siming for the manhua equivalent.*

**Jimei Tanmoku** (Chinese: 端木寺明) is the current secretary of Tanmoku household. He is also Jiun Tanmoku's younger stepbrother and Ki Tanmoku's cousin.

## Appearance

Jimei has reddish brown hair in which the fringe and back are slightly longer than the sides and has slightly darker eyebrows. He wore rimless rectangular lens glasses.
Duanmu Siyun

Duanmu Xi (Cousin)

Duanmu Siming (Cousin)

Duanmu Siping (Cousin) †

Duanmu Yin (Uncle) †

Great-grandmother

Duanmu Luoyue (Ancestor) † (body only)

*This entry is for the manhua character. See Tanmoku Jiun for the anime/donghua equivalent.*

**Duanmu Siyun** is the daughter of the 62nd Yangming Master, Duanmu Lian. She is the one who will most likely succeed Duanmu Xi as the head of the Duanmu family and the next Yangming Master.

Siyun is a natural leader with a strong personality. She successfully takes care of the family affairs left to her by Duanmu Xi, and family members often praise her as they consider her more suitable than Duanmu Xi for the position of the family head. Despite still being teenagers, Siyun and her cousin, Duanmu Siming, have managed to built a strong network and the two are working hard together, to realize their vision of changing the old ways and traditions of the Duanmu family and Yangming Division, when Siyun becomes the family head.

At first, Siyun seemed to be arrogant and hostile to Duanmu Xi, but that was due to the lack of communication between them. She actually cares deeply about him and does everything in her power to protect or save him, no matter the cost. Duanmu Xi has a lot of respect for her as well and tries his best to give her more time to prepare and make her transition to power smoother, before he dies.

While Siyun is eager to show her talent, her mother made great-grandmother promise her that she would never let Siyun become a Yangming Master, as females live only 5 years on average after assuming the post (compared to males who live 10 years), due to their yin energy. Her father, also, wants her to live a normal life and have her own family, often reminding great-grandmother of the promise she had made or trying to find a good husband for Siyun. Siyun, however, doesn't want his help in this matter, as she has a crush on Shenlong Zhangxuan.

Everytime is lonesome day
Hard to say I'm sorry

愛してると呟くとき
離れた手を引き寄せたとき ねぇ
ボクは何を思ってたんだろう
最後のキス交わしたとき
改札口で手を振るとき ねぇ
キミは何を思ってたんだろう

駅へ急ぐ人の流れを背に時間を巻き
戻した気でいたけど
これじゃまるでボクの方から離れて
いくみたいだ

どんな言葉で傷付けても体温が伝わ
ることはない
溜息を白く染めるだけ
この恋に罪はない
誰のせいでもない

夢の中でキミに逢うとき
現実のボクは独りよがりで
きっと後悔なんて消えないんだろう
抱きしめていたいよ
もっと触れていたいよ
ボクには響かない
その言葉にチカラもない

Chapter 15

## Chapter Fifteen

This is the fifteenth chapter of the Spiritpact manhua. Cutting one strand at a time to rescue Qin from the spirits, Xi joins the fight effortlessly dodging them to gather them all in one easy to slice formation. Jinghua is stunned to inaction in fear at his prowess though.

## Appearances

* Yang Jinghua
* Duanmu Xi
* Happy Face Spirits
* Qin Shiyao

## Plot Synopsis

With Xi powerless to intervene against a human, it looks like to Jinghua that he has no choice. Armed with a long glowing electrical blue sword Xi fashioned for him, Jinghua charges in having to take the risk against the spirits. He cries out that Xi owes him one and had better thank him later.

Amongst the darkness that engulfs Qin, there is a greater mass of long criss crossing dark red and blue strands. Everything is a mess and Jinghua calls out how is he going to cut anything. Startled as some of the happy face dead souls advance towards him, Xi remarks how weak as he himself effortlessly flicks away a single growling spirit that comes too close to him.

Over-watching both Jinghua successfully cutting the blue strands as he is supposed to, and Qin thoroughly wrapped by the dead souls, Xi does guide him. Telling him, up, down to the right and the specific thread Jinghua needs to cut, he raises that Jinghua said he played as a swordsman, can he get serious.

Trying hard, he asks if Xi can stop being a bother, he is being very serious. Standing there nagging, and complaining, Jinghua states that Xi is not doing anything and he should do it, if he is so good and can do it, he should do so.

Watching, Xi does exactly that as he leaps towards Qin who notices his involvement. Jinghua is struck by how fast he is as Xi can discern the red tethers coming towards him. Jinghua finds it amazing seeing Xi backflip, being able to completely perfectly dodge though their assault to gather the red strings all in one easy to cut formation. Feeling he is so strong to do that and grip them tight, Jinghua is then ordered by him to cut it.

Seeing Xi’s look, Jinghua wonders why are his own hands shaking, this guy in the face of such overwhelming power. Even as a soul image he felt the fear and wonders what is he scared for as he is paralysed by a strong desire to tremble.

Calling out his full name of Yang Jinghua, Xi tells him if he is not able to do this, after today he does not need to be his soul image anymore. With his face flushed, Jinghua regains himself and damning it he shouts out for him to not look down on him as he slices through the combined red tendrils.

**Long Yu** is a sword spirit/demon, whose whole body can turn into a sharp blade. She resides in Jingling mountain and is a loyal follower of Yinzhe.

Shortly after Duanmu Xi gave the soul-locking rings to Yang Jinghua, the two of them were confronted by a group of demons, including Long Yu and Yin Huayu, who wanted to check the new shadow spirit. Long Yu attempted to seduce him there, but was stopped by Duanmu Xi.

Later, when Yinzhe decided to measure Yang Jinghua's strength, he created a barrier that could pass through the defenses of the Duanmu household and inside it he hid his demons, including Long Yu. Once he got Yang Jinghua inside it as well, he ordered them to attack him, with Long Yu using her arm as a blade to cut the hand of his spirit, causing him immense pain. In return, when Jinghua took the Luoyue sword and transformed into his adult form, he broke Long Yu's hand and slaughtered dozens of demons. Since he had demonstrated his true power and become seemingly unbeatable, Yinzhe and his remaining demons left.

That night, after Duanmu Xi gave him the Luoyue sword and removed the distance restriction, Yang Jinghua accidentally wandered off to Yinzhe's territory. There, Long Yu attacked him but she was immediately stopped by Yinzhe, who told her to back off since she couldn't win now that he had the Luoyue sword.
