Chapter 406 (2/2)

With a smile on his face, Xiang Shaoyun said, ”h.e.l.lo, beauties. Don't be nervous. I'm here to save you. Do you trust me?”

The sisters were dumbstruck.

Soon, Han Xuewei reacted. Hope filled her face as she said, ”Y-you're really here to save us?”

”Stop dreaming, sister. How is that possible?” Although Han Qianwei's cultivation base had been sealed, she could still see that Xiang Shaoyun was only a third-stage Skysoar Realm cultivator. How could someone like him save them?

Instead, she suspected that Xiang Shaoyun was probably a young master of the Skeleton Gang. Even so, she was still curious about him, especially when she looked into his clear, bright eyes. They were completely devoid of the l.u.s.t other men would have when looking at them.

That realization confused her somewhat, making her wonder just what kind of person he was.

”Listen to me. I'm really here to save you!” Xiang Shaoyun reiterated. ”I know you were both kidnapped by the Skeleton Gang, but we have already taken over the gang now. Since there is really no grudge between us, it is only natural for me to release both of you. But I need you to promise me one thing before I free you.”

The serious expression Xiang Shaoyun had was able to slightly convince the sisters to trust him.

Han Xuewei said, ”So long as you can release us, we can agree to anything!”

But Han Qianwei still maintained her calm as she said, ”Don't talk nonsense, sister. There are things we will never agree to, even if we have to die.”

Xiang Shaoyun shot Han Qianwei a glance and said, ”Don't worry. I won't make you do anything damaging to your clan or yourself. I only need you to guarantee that you won't take revenge on the Skeleton Gang upon returning to your clan. They are now my underlings. Making a move against them is the same as making a move against me. If you can't agree to that...well, I won't be able to show mercy either.”

Right after Xiang Shaoyun finished his sentence, an imposing aura surged out of him, making it clear he was not joking around. If they had to suffer the revenge of Han Clan even after freeing the sisters, they might as well keep the sisters. To accomplish something great, sacrifices were needed. At times one ought to be decisively ruthless if one wanted success.

The sisters could sense that Xiang Shaoyun wasn't boasting, but they did not know what to say. After all, the Han Clan's branch in the city had been purged. It was impossible for the clan to do nothing.

”Our branch here has been purged. The clan will definitely send someone here to investigate. We won't be able to hide it even if we want to,” said Han Xuewei with a look of hesitation.

On the other hand, Han Qianwei spoke firmly, ”So long as you can free us, I promise the Han Clan will not come for the Skeleton Gang. The Bloodsin City is filled with criminals. We can easily feed our clan some misinformation to hide the truth.”

Han Qianwei was much more shrewd compared to her sister. She knew very well staying alive should be their priority. They could always decide what to do next after getting their freedom.

”Good, but verbal promises are meaningless. Swallow this pill. If you leave the Skeleton Gang alone for one year, I will trust you. If not, both of you will suffer after one year,” said Xiang Shaoyun coldly as he took out two pills.
