If They Sold Themselves, They Sold the Whole Family

Zhou Wanwan looked at them with a smile and said, "Does it hurt? It's good that it hurts, have you learned your lesson?"

Those people nodded repeatedly, "They've learned their lesson, they've learned their lesson."

But these seasoned soldiers aren't so quick to learn their lesson.

They talk a good game, but they're currently under someone else's roof and have no choice but to bow their heads.

Someone muttered under their breath, "They'll be in for a beating when Old General Xie returns."

Zhou Wanwan looked at the man and said, "Ah! I forgot about that. I need to bring Old General Xie back."

Qin Shan snorted coldly and said, "Bring him back? What for?"

"You don't understand. Of course we have to bring him back. If we don't, how will his daughter deliver grain to the border?"

Qin Shan remained silent. Zhou Wanwan led a group of trees to find Old General Xie.

Old General Xie was imprisoned in the capital of the Great Qi Kingdom Capital.

It took them more than two hours to reach the capital of the Great Qi.

Zhou Wanwan looked at the capital of the Great Qi Dynasty and said:

"Wow, it's huge! This is much more prosperous than the capital of the Great Xia Kingdom, and that's actually the Forbidden City! Tsk tsk tsk..."

It feels familiar!

Zhou Wanwan walked around the palace gate, and it was indeed quite nice.

A tree nearby said, "Wanwan likes it? Shall we move it back?"

Zhou Wanwan quickly shook her head and said:

"We won't move for now. If we all move out now, we'll become the target of everyone's criticism. Will the Great Qi Kingdom let us off then?"

We are indeed quite strong, but it's impossible for us to withstand the million-strong army of the Great Qi.

Moreover, the Great Qi Kingdom also possesses secret weapons; they just haven't revealed them yet.

How could a great nation like ours not have secret weapons?

Zhou Wanwan still hasn't figured out what the Great Qi Kingdom's secret weapon is.

You cannot enter the Great Qi Imperial Palace; generally, terrifying beings are kept inside.

The Old Scholar Tree and their Old Ancestor felt an insidious pressure outside the palace, and even wanted to explore the secrets inside.

But their delicate, thread-like roots were all burned as soon as they reached into the palace.

"Ouch! It hurts... it hurts so much! What's in here?" The Old Scholar Tree was in great pain.

That burning sensation was excruciatingly painful.

The Old Ancestor was also in great pain; the black flames continued to burn him.

Zhou Wanwan quickly channeled spiritual energy into them.

Only when Zhou Wanwan channeled her spiritual energy could the two of them catch their breath.

The Old Scholar Tree said, "I don't know what kind of flame this is; it's black, and it's terrifying if you get even a little bit on it."

The Old Ancestor looked in the direction of the imperial city and said, "Let's not go. The imperial city is too dangerous. We old bones are fine, but Wanwan can't."

Wanwan kept channeling spiritual energy into them, asking, "Are you feeling better?"

The Old Scholar Tree nodded and said, "Much better. If it weren't for your spiritual energy, we two old bones probably wouldn't have made it."

Zhou Wanwan's spiritual power has a healing effect.

If it weren't for its spiritual power, the Old Scholar Tree and the Old Ancestor wouldn't have been able to withstand it at all.

Zhou Wanwan said, "Since we can't go to the capital, let's go straight to the prison! Let's get Old Xie out first."

They found Old Master Xie very quickly because it was close to the prison.

Old Master Xie lay on the bed groaning, but the jailers completely ignored him.

Soon, the jailers fell to the ground with a series of thuds.

Zhou Wanwan walked into the cell and looked at Old Master Xie, saying, "Old Master Xie is quite comfortable here! You're even staying in a single cell."

Old Master Xie jumped to his feet and said, "Hey! Where did you come from, little girl? How come you can come and go freely in the prison cell? Did you come to rescue me?"

Zhou Wanwan looked at Old Master Xie and said, "Well, yes and no."

Old Master Xie, sitting cross-legged, asked, "So, is it or isn't it?"

Zhou Wanwan looked at Old Master Xie and said, "This is a contract. If you think it's suitable, sign it; if you don't, I'll leave."

Old Master Xie's face changed as he looked at the contract. "A contract of servitude? Bah! This isn't a contract of servitude, it's selling the Xie Family outright! You're dreaming!"

Zhou Wanwan said calmly, "Oh! Then I'm leaving."

After saying that, he turned and left, which startled Old Master Xie so much that his heart pounded.

"Young friend, everything is negotiable."

Zhou Wanwan turned to look at Old Master Xie and said, "Hmm, there's no room for discussion. You decide for yourself. I'll give you three seconds to think it over: 1, 2..."

"I agree." He had no choice but to agree! This prison wasn't a place for ordinary people. Even the top experts in the Great Xia Kingdom couldn't guarantee their rescue.

Zhou Wanwan looked at the signature with satisfaction and said, "Very good, it's a pleasure to cooperate."

Old Master Xie smiled and said, "Master, you flatter me. From now on, I am your man, and I will do my best to serve you."

Zhou Wanwan said calmly, "I have no shortage of talented people around me."

A voice came from next door. "Young lady, we don't lack talented people, but what we lack are people like us? We all have special abilities."

Zhou Wanwan arrived next door and looked at the people there, asking, "Oh? Who are you all?"

After investigating, it was discovered that all of them were officials from the Great Qi Kingdom.

All 32 officials of the Great Qi Great Qi Kingdom held important positions.

Zhou Wanwan looked at them and said, "You guys are doing pretty badly, huh? Even the worst of you are second-rank officials, how did you end up in prison?"

All the officials pledged their loyalty:

"We have all been framed, please save us."

"If you're willing to save us, we're willing to serve you."

Zhou Wanwan sighed and said:

"To be honest, I don't really need any more men. Please wait a moment."

I also need to investigate whether you people are reliable or not.

Unexpectedly, after a while, a large tree outside reported, "Master, those who can be locked up here are all quite good, and they are all ruthless characters, worth cultivating."

Zhou Wanwan looked at them with a smile and said, "Do you want to go by yourselves, or do you want to bring your families with you?"

The group looked at each other, puzzled. "There's still a choice?"

Zhou Wanwan nodded and said:

"Of course you can choose! If you're willing to come with me, then sign the papers."

But you sold your entire family's wealth to me, do you understand?"

If we're going to sell, then the whole family will have to be sold.

But if you don't sell yourself, you'll spend your whole life in prison.

Follow Zhou Wanwan, and endless possibilities await.

These people are very shrewd; they made their choice very quickly.

Zhou Wanwan looked at them and said, "Then we'll be going now. You might feel a little dizzy, but you'll be fine after a nap."

"Huh? What?"

Before they could even finish speaking, they all fainted.

Zhou Wanwan was very fast, and she had all the trees packed up for them.

I also helped pack up the trees for their families. They were packed up very quickly; over 30 families were packed up in the blink of an eye.

Then they led these people towards Yanmen Pass.
