The little female is incredibly sweet and soft, healing the five evil beasts right from the start.

Chapter 47 Department Store
"Have you forgotten the rules I mentioned?" Jiang Mian's eyes flickered slightly as she spoke. "I won't hit you anymore."

Jiang Mian felt that the improved relationship before was only because no one reminded them that they were still in a master-slave relationship.

What they just witnessed serves as a reminder that they are now in an unequal relationship.

Jiang Mian can control their brain chips, which means he can control their life and death.

This also seemed to remind Jiang Mian that each of these five orcs had power in their hands, and if she wasn't bound by a chip, they could easily kill her.

For a moment, everyone had their own thoughts again.

“Oh right, the rules.” Chi Lin chuckled lightly, then glanced at Jiang Mian, her azure eyes fixed on her. “So, do you think I can obtain the status of a free beastman?”

Jiang Mian blinked, glanced at him, then looked away, simply saying, "We'll see."

She felt that he still seemed to want to kill her.

talk later.

In the main city, the houses are packed tightly together, and the alleys are interconnected. It feels like you walk through one alleyway and then another. The ground is always damp, and outside the light shield is a gray sky. The sky over the entire Exile Star always seems gloomy.

But its temperature is different; it's scorching hot during the day and freezing cold at night.

As Jiang Mian walked along, she noticed that there were no markets or shopping malls here. If someone wanted to open a shop, they could just hang a sign in front of their house. It looked like a shop that produced counterfeit or substandard products.

Moreover, the shops are scattered, and the business is sometimes optional.

"Rong Fei, let's go take a look over there." Jiang Mian saw a dozen or so people queuing outside an iron gate, which was quite a lot. Next to the door of that family's house was a wooden sign with the three words "Department Store" written crookedly. With so many people queuing, it proved that the things sold here must be good.

Jiang Mian subconsciously grabbed Rong Fei's hand and walked over.

She pulled Rong Fei along quickly, wanting to see if the extremely shabby department store had any necessities for sale.

Chi Lin, who was not far behind, slowed down and watched as Jiang Mian completely ignored him, pulling the lizard beastman past him and walking away. His gaze was fixed on Jiang Mian's hand holding Rong Fei's.

The two figures slowly walked away, seemingly forgetting him.

At the damp alley entrance, a tall, slender young man stood forlornly, wearing a dark blue shirt and straight black trousers. His dark blue head drooped slightly, and the dark blue wisps of hair on his forehead partially obscured his eyes.

A wave of discomfort and jealousy washed over his heart, a bitter, tingling pain.

His azure eyes, like green mountains shrouded in the glow of sunset, shimmered with a faint reddish light, and the whites of his eyes were tinged with bloodshot veins, his eyes gleaming with a slightly cold, bloody red.

Jiang Mian, you win.

If you can love me, I can accept being tamed by you.

Chi Lin chuckled to himself and, pathetically, hurried to catch up with Jiang Mian.

There was an open iron gate, and a dozen or so people, both men and women, were lined up.

Jiang Mian then joined the queue. She never expected that she would have to queue to buy groceries. It was quite a novel experience.

A moment later, Jiang Mian saw a man come out of the room, followed by a rabbit-shaped girl.

At first, she didn't pay much attention to it, until she saw the woman who had been queuing alone earlier. Before she went in, there were no beastmen behind her, but after she came out, a wolf boy followed behind her.

Jiang Mian belatedly realized that the department store here was different from the one she thought it was!
“This shouldn’t be the department store Mianmian wants to go to,” Rong Fei said softly from behind.

Jiang Mian's lips twitched slightly, and she nodded: "That's how it is."

After she finished speaking, she quickly pulled Rong Fei away.

Did you expect the trade of orcs to be so popular?
"Why are there so many people buying and selling orcs? People on the exile planet shouldn't be wealthy on average," Jiang Mian asked, puzzled. Everyone is struggling to support themselves, so why would they need to raise orcs?

"It shouldn't be buying and selling orcs, but renting orcs," Rong Fei said calmly, his face expressionless, as if he were talking about something very ordinary.

Jiang Mian paused slightly upon hearing this, and said, "I see."

Rong Fei glanced at her briefly but didn't say anything more.

It wasn't long before Jiang Mian belatedly realized that it was too quiet.
Where is that guy Chi Lin?
Jiang Mian stopped and turned around, where she saw Chi Lin not far away.

Chi Lin stood there, seemingly because Jiang Mian had finally remembered him, and slowly walked towards Jiang Mian.

"Sister, you finally realized I was missing." Chi Lin slowly walked towards Jiang Mian, a smile playing on her lips. "Thirteen minutes and fifty-two seconds."

He stopped in front of Jiang Mian, bent down slightly, looked down at her, and chuckled softly: "Next time, could you notice I've been abandoned sooner? By a second, or even a minute?"

Jiang Mian:......

Didn't he get lost on his own? How did it become that she lost him?
"Let's go see where we can buy groceries." Jiang Mian said this casually.

She turned around and said that, intending to continue browsing.

The next second, Chi Lin grabbed her wrist, and Chi Lin's soft voice came from behind her: "Sister, I just asked for you, there is someone selling the groceries you want at the entrance of Lane 15."

Jiang Mian paused, turned around and nodded: "Then let's go."

She was about to pull her hand away from Chi Lin's, but Chi Lin simply took her hand and walked forward, saying softly, "I'll take my sister there."

If she won't take his hand, then he should take hers first.

Jiang Mian paused for a moment, then followed Chi Lin to the entrance of Lane 15.

Upon arriving at their destination, Chi Lin released Jiang Mian's hand.

It's rare to find a general store hidden in such a remote place.

However, resources are scarce now, so it's people looking for shops, not shops looking for customers. I can probably understand that.

"Sister, come in." Chi Lin pushed open the door and stood at the entrance, looking at Jiang Mian and waiting for her to come over.

Jiang Mian followed suit and went inside, with Rong Fei following behind her.

This is really just an ordinary living room; there are no counters or goods in sight.

It doesn't look like a shop, but more like a residence.

But these shops here are all like that, they can operate or not, so I can understand that?
A young orc strode down the stairs.

"What would you all like to buy?" the orc asked with a grin. "Just tell me what you want, and I'll take it out of the Nexus space for you."

Jiang Mian paused for a moment and then asked, "Can I buy anything?"

The young orc patted his chest: "Of course, if you want the stars in the sky, I'll have someone pluck them down for you."

Jiang Mian:......

She coughed lightly and stated what she wanted: "Seven brand new sets of bedding, mattresses, and mats..."
