“Then why not just be a good City Lord?
Why resort to wicked deeds?” Mo Jiuli asked, ignoring Wang Baitian’s shocked gaze.
“Hmph, this world is naturally survival of the fittest.
Even when I tried to be a good person, wasn’t I bullied too?
Even my own father…,” Wang Baitian’s eyes were filled with shock as he unintentionally spilled his deepest thoughts, spilling them like beans.
Finally, he collapsed to the ground, staring at Mo Jiuli dumbfounded.
If he didn’t know by now that he had been outwitted by this woman, then all his years were for nothing…
Reflecting on it, it must have been the Elixir he had eaten earlier.
It must have been because of that Elixir that he had spilled all he shouldn’t have…
Mo Jiuli slightly frowned upon hearing this, not having expected that this man, who appeared muscular and tough, Wang Baitian, had such a pitiful past.
It really fit the saying that there is something pitiful about someone despicable…
“Do you still want to live?” Mo Jiuli hesitated before asking him.
“Yes!” Wang Baitian said tersely, fearing that if he said more, he might let slip more than he should.
In fact, at this point, there wasn’t much he shouldn’t say!
“Then would you be willing to make a contract with me?” Mo Jiuli asked.
“Not willing…”
“I am willing, I am not willing…” Wang Baitian looked at Mo Jiuli, almost on the verge of tears.
Actually, to stay alive, he wanted to say he was willing, but as the words came out, they turned into…
“Heh heh, I know you’re not willing, but making a contract with me is your only hope to stay alive!
You can think about it, you still have two days anyway…” Mo Jiuli said indifferently.
“I…”
“You just think about it here!” Mo Jiuli glanced at him, struck the space around him with a few strikes of dark energy, and then turned to leave.
When Wang Baitian came back to his senses, he found himself back in his residence, and all his concubines were gone.
Thinking of his Concubines being taken away by Guyan and others, he felt an indescribable suffocation…
But then, thinking back to Mo Jiuli’s words, he immediately felt depressed again.
What should he do?
If he refused the contract, he would undoubtedly die.
If he accepted the contract, he would lose his freedom and become someone else’s slave…
To continue living as a slave to others, or to die rather than submit…
For a moment, Wang Baitian was caught in a dilemma…
Outside the door, the guards of the City Lord’s Mansion, seeing their own City Lord lying on the ground, with wide eyes, not knowing what he was conflicted about, none of them dared to enter and disturb him…
In the backyard of the City Lord’s Mansion, Mo Jiuli and others gathered in a room.
Guyan looked at Mo Jiuli and asked, “Lady, don’t you plan to kill that Wang Baitian?”
“I plan to take him in!” Mo Jiuli declared.
“Ah…
Why?” Everyone looked at Mo Jiuli with some puzzlement.
They didn’t understand what redeeming qualities Wang Baitian possessed that caught Mo Jiuli’s interest…
In their eyes, everyone thought Mo Jiuli would eventually just kill Wang Baitian in the end…
“For Tianhe City!
It’s easy to kill him, but then the City Lord of Tianhe City would have to be replaced!
Therefore, I plan to take him in and have him continue as the ruler of Tianhe City…,” Mo Jiuli explained.
“Lady, do you want Tianhe City?” Chenxiang asked, furrowing his brow.
To him, Tianhe City wasn’t exactly a major city.
Frankly, in his eyes, Tianhe City seemed rather insignificant, almost without much meaning whether one owned it or not…
