Swallowing the Stars: Sacrifice to Become Stronger, Fiancée is Alluring

Chapter 152 My master's kindness is beyond repayment, I can only...

The leading female slave stepped forward and said in a trembling voice:

"Master, what do you need us to do?"

"?"

Jiang Lan was full of doubt, not understanding why they reacted this way when he said he would let them go in ten years.

"I won't do anything, just serve me well for ten years, and then I'll have someone remove the chips from your brains and set you free."

Although money was spent, Jiang Lan was, after all, someone who had been instilled with modern education since childhood.

Buying slaves is fine, but Jiang Lan can't bring himself to treat slaves like mere tools, not as human beings.

Although it sounds a bit far-fetched, Jiang Lan truly felt from the bottom of her heart that all people should be free.

He did spend some money to buy these female slaves, but that amount of money was nothing to him.

Jiang Lan felt that he had made a huge profit by exchanging that money for ten years of labor from ten fourth-level Hengxing martial artists.

And ten years later...

Since he transmigrated to this world, it has only been about half a year since he became a Hengxing star.

Ten years from now, he might not even have grown to that extent.

Even if he still needs slaves then, he can simply buy more powerful ones.

A moment of silence fell over the driver's cab.

After a long while, the purple-haired female slave who was in charge finally bit her lower lip and said:

"Master, are we being sent to the front lines as cannon fodder?"

Jiang Lan: "?"

How did I end up as cannon fodder?

He never said that.

Besides, he was going to take these ten female slaves back to Earth.

On Earth, with the strength of these female slaves at the fourth level of the Hengxing realm, they could completely sweep everything away. Where does the idea of ​​them being cannon fodder come from?

Even if Earth and space explorers clash in the near future, he can resolve the situation without needing these female slaves.

Thinking of this, Jiang Lan said:

"You don't need to be cannon fodder. What you need to do is help me plant flowers and grow grass, and kill some monsters when necessary. The monsters aren't very strong; they're all planetary level, not even star level."

"what?"

The leading female slave unconsciously let out a soft cry.

"Huh?" Jiang Lan asked, "With your strength, killing a planetary monster shouldn't be too risky, right?"

"No...it's not dangerous, it's just too...easy..." The female slave's expression was complicated. "When you first said that, I thought you wanted us to be cannon fodder..."

Jiang Lan laughed.

Why would you think that?

After a pause, the head female slave replied:

"We also have many brothers and sisters who were sold to other people. Their owners have said that they would be released after a certain period of time, but on the condition that they be made to do very dangerous work."

At this point, her tone became slightly disappointed, "I've never seen anyone else be released after the appointed time."

Jiang Lan suddenly understood upon hearing this.

He was just wondering why, when he said he would release these female slaves at the appointed time, they were initially happy but immediately became afraid.

It turned out to be the case.

However, he would not send these female slaves to their deaths.

Jiang Lan comforted him:

"Don't worry, I mean what I say. As long as you do your best, I will set you free in ten years."

The female slave's eyes lit up immediately.

This was incredibly good news for them.

Ten years is just the beginning.

As warriors of the Eternal Star level, their lifespan is a full era, or 10081 years.

Ten years is nothing compared to their long lifespans.

Sometimes, as a celestial being, a single period of seclusion can take several years.

Therefore, Jiang Lan's statement that she would set them free in ten years is practically the same as saying she would set them free now.

How could they not be happy?

The leading female slave's chest heaved, her eyes filled with wild joy.

"Master... thank you..."

Jiang Lan twitched the corner of her mouth. "Didn't I say you can just call me Mr. Jiang?"

He still couldn't quite accept being called "master".

But it doesn't seem quite appropriate to let the slaves call him by his name directly.

"Mr. Jiang... thank you..."

The female slave bit her lower lip tightly, almost crying with excitement.

"Alright, that's all. You can all go find a place to rest. It will take about half a month to reach our destination."

As he spoke, Jiang Lan's mind stirred, and ten virtual reality headsets instantly appeared in front of him.

"This is a helmet that connects to the virtual universe network. It's already linked to an anonymous account. If you're bored, just wander around the virtual universe."

The female slaves looked at Jiang Lan, and their expressions changed.

As slaves, they naturally had no right to use the virtual universe network.

Jiang Lan not only promised to let them leave after ten years, but also allowed them to enter the virtual universe.

Before today, they wouldn't have even dared to think about such a thing.

Back when they were in the slave market, they had wondered what kind of person their future master would be.

Most slaves in the universe meet a tragic end.

Most of them were on the battlefield until they died in battle.

Female warriors like them, in addition to participating in battles, also have to satisfy their masters' desires.

Some, especially those with a cruel nature, would even play with slaves until they died, which was not uncommon.

Someone like Jiang Lan is simply...

For a moment, they couldn't even think of what words to use to describe it.

The female slaves exchanged glances, seemingly having made up their minds, and then walked up to Jiang Lan.

Jiang Lan asked in confusion, "What are you doing?"

"Master..." one of the female slaves, with pink hair and eyes and a sweet appearance, said, "We have no way to repay your kindness, we can only..."

As she spoke, her hand reached for Jiang Lan's pants.

Jiang Lan was startled and immediately slapped her hand away.

Taking a deep breath, Jiang Lan said:

"I know you want to thank me, but there's no need to do it this way, and I didn't mean it that way."

As he spoke, he waved his hand, his tone becoming somewhat cold.

"You should leave."

The group of female slaves exchanged glances again.

But Jiang Lan had already spoken, and they couldn't disobey him, so they all bowed to Jiang Lan and said:

"Then, Master, we'll be taking our leave now."

"Call him Mr. Jiang, not Master."

"Yes, Mr. Jiang."

Seeing the group of female slaves leave, Jiang Lan leaned back in his chair and let out a sigh of relief.

He never expected these slaves to suddenly pull this stunt.

Although Jiang Lan wasn't exactly a good person, he and Yao Rao were currently in a good relationship, and it was impossible for him to betray Yao Rao just to satisfy his physical desires.

After looking towards the doorway for a while, Jiang Lan shook her head slightly and then looked away.

Immediately afterwards, he connected with Babata using his consciousness and said:

"Babata, help me connect to the virtual universe network."

"OK!"
