Ling Qi was adapted into a donghua (Chinese animation) with the same name in 2017. The donghua was then dubbed in Japanese and had a number of aesthetic elements modified to create the anime Spiritpact. Both animation series followed pretty closely with the first arc of the webcomic (until around chapter 100). The Japanese dub [[http://www.crunchyroll.com/spiritpact can be watched legally]] on WebSite/Crunchyroll.

* BlessedWithSuck: Duanmu Xi's great power comes with a price - everything he uses it to purify the world, it sacrifices more of his life to the point that heads of the family don't live past 30. [[spoiler: Duanmu Xi barely has another year of life.]]


Added DiffLines:

* DeclarationOfProtection: Yang Jinghua to Duanmu Xi. It gives him purpose, power and anchors him to the world.

* {{Fanservice}}: Basically the very core of Ling Qi is fanservice. Tons of them. Duanmu Xi and Yang Jinghua [[spoiler:have kissed]] for [[spoiler:6 times]] throughout the entire series (up till this point in time), [[spoiler:have hugged]] each other lovingly on numerous occasions and [[spoiler:have held hands]] for countless times. Not to mention, half of what they speak to each other are practically love confessions. Need I say more?

Removed Platonic Life Partners, author assertion that it is not a BL aside the relationship cannot be described as platonic, considering the severe romantic undertones of the relationship. I assert that we currently lack a trope for describing this relationship.


* {{Platonic Life Partners}}: Yupe, "platonic" because [[spoiler: it has been confirmed by the author that this series will never turn into a BL, no matter how gay it gets]]. And "life partners" is very obvious since they signed a Soul Contract and they are supposed to be physically together (even though Yang Jinghua technically does not have a physical presence).
