Sounding Things Out

Wei Shao'er had bewitched Chen Zhang, tying the man hopelessly smitten with his first love firmly to her side and making him give her almost anything she asked for.

This was the same approach she had used before to fleece Chen Zhang for all he was worth. Wei Shao'er had succeeded, even getting him to take out the Qi and Blood pills he used in his cultivation and give them to her.

With her life preserved, Wei Shao'er was also actively preparing to free herself in the future.

Zhang Xuezhou turned it over again and again.

In the end, he felt that as long as he kept to the right path and didn't use threats to force Wei Shao'er to do anything, he might not gain riches and status, but at least he shouldn't come to harm.

But refusing to cooperate with Wei Shao'er would bring him plenty of trouble. At the very least, she wouldn't let him live in peace.

If Wei Shao'er knew she was certain to die and had the ability to cause destruction, Zhang Xuezhou really couldn't guarantee what she might do.

That was why he finally agreed to cooperate.

"I can swear that!"

Wei Shao'er gave him her assurance in a low voice.

She also heaved a great sigh of relief.

She needed to get through these next few months. Once she gave birth to the child, her trouble with the incessant bleeding would be over.

Wei Shao'er no longer thought about Ancestral Dragon Blood or the Technique
