Chapter 836

But what Xiao Ning wanted was the resources and money obtained.

As long as Zhao Chi produced, half of it would belong to Xiao Ning.

Although he could reduce the share given to Xiao Ning by transporting most of the resources and population to Penglai Village.

But he himself could not escape.

In Zhao Chi's territory, the greatest productive force was Zhao Chi himself.

He had no way to transfer his own ownership away.

If he agreed to this condition, then when he later produced clothing, fire oil, and so on, not only would he have to give half to Xiao Ning, but most importantly, this ability of his would be completely exposed.

Moreover, that vast stretch of ultra-high-yield wheat and experience fruits in Taoyuan Village would also be discovered.

Right now Xiao Ning only thought he was a low-level lord, a bit outstanding, with a bit more potential.

But if it was discovered that he had so many high-level things…

He would be finished.

At that time, he estimated that even dying would be difficult.

Xiao Ning saw Zhao Chi frozen in place without speaking, and felt somewhat displeased: "What? Me taking you as a vassal is giving you face. I think your potential is pretty good, and I'm not going to hold the past against you. Why the fuck are you still hesitating? Is it that you look down on me, or that you look down on the Holy Race? Don't take the face I'm giving you and refuse it."

Damn…

Zhao Chi found it very hard to speak.

Xiao Ning being abandoned before was also the Xiao family's helpless choice.

After all, they had a whole clan of people. If they had clashed with the alien race at that time, the entire Xiao family would probably have suffered.

For the sake of the entire Xiao family, sacrificing one Xiao Ning was also a forced choice.

The entire Stream Village knew about this situation, and no one could say the Xiao family was wrong.

Even Zhao Chi felt that in that situation, there really was no choice.

Now… it was his turn.

Would the Zhao family clash with Xiao Ning or the alien race for his sake?

Although Zhao Chi held fantasies about the Zhao family, a man should not have fantasies.

Even if his potential was limitless and he had won the championship twice.

The Zhao family still wouldn't really go up against the alien race for his sake.

Most importantly, the Zhao family didn't have that kind of strength.

Perhaps with the full strength of the clan, fighting Xiao Ning and these 20 alien lords head-on, there might be a slim hope of victory.

But if so, the Zhao family would also be finished.

The Zhao family wouldn't do that.

And no family would do that.

He would probably be abandoned too.

Fighting was out of the question.

Then what about escaping back to Penglai Village and hiding?

That really was a fallback!

Then he could only agree to her first, and when the situation became critical later, abandon Taoyuan Village…

Damn!

There must be another way.

After becoming a vassal, there were 3 ways to dissolve it.

The first, when the vassal period expired, it could be automatically dissolved.

The second, the superior lord dissolving it themselves.

The third, the superior lord's death.

He definitely couldn't last until the vassal period expired, so the first one didn't apply.

And Xiao Ning would absolutely never dissolve it herself.

So, there was only the third.

Kill her!

Thinking of this, Zhao Chi's heart cleared up completely.

The alien race was strong, but you, Xiao Ning, are not the alien race.

You're just a newbie lord from the same batch as me.

Then let's take this path!

Zhao Chi raised his head, stared at Xiao Ning: "I am willing to become your vassal."

Xiao Ning had an expression of victory in hand.

Hearing Zhao Chi agree, she shook her head disdainfully and said: "Hmph, I thought your backbone was so tough, turns out you're a soft-boned one too. From now on you're my vassal lord, the one you must be loyal to is me, understand?"

"Understood." Zhao Chi gritted his teeth.

Xiao Ning's face darkened: "Why are you talking through gritted teeth like that? You don't want to?"

Zhao Chi smiled slightly: "My teeth were almost knocked out, so my voice sounds a bit off."

"Oh, so that's how it is. Yan Ping still showed mercy then, otherwise one palm strike and your head would've flown off."

Zhao Chi didn't know if this was true or false.

But alien lords could not be underestimated.

Fortunately, Xiao Ning was not an alien lord.

She hadn't been captured for long, so even if she received help from the alien race, her strength couldn't be too great.

As long as he could avoid those alien races, Zhao Chi was confident he could kill Xiao Ning.

Xiao Ning snorted: "Alright, the vassal agreement has been sent over. Click to agree."

The system delivered a prompt:

【You have received a Vassal Agreement】

【Superior Lord】 Master Mu Chang Ning

【Vassal Lord】 Zhao Chi

【Vassal Territory】 Taoyuan Village

【Vassal Term】 Indefinite

【Clause Enforcement】 Automatic

【Tribute Cycle】 Self-defined

【Vassal Terms】 All of Zhao Chi's personal and territorial income, including money, supplies, personnel, territory, etc., must be handed over at 50% to Master Mu Chang Ning, forcibly collected by the system, with Master Mu Chang Ning having first pick.

【Sign?】

That's really something.

An indefinite term showed up.

Xiao Ning's original name had also been completely changed to Mu Chang Ning.

At least in terms of identity, she had also become an alien race.

These terms were automatically enforced.

In other words, every time Zhao Chi gained a harvest, the system would automatically calculate.

The tribute cycle was self-defined, meaning whenever Xiao Ning wanted it, Zhao Chi had to hand the supplies over.

An agreement like this — signing it was selling oneself.

But right now no one could help him either; he'd have to grit his teeth and sign.

He had to kill her as soon as possible!

"What? Just this little bit of text, and you still need a few minutes to read it? Hurry up!"

Zhao Chi clicked to sign.

【Please carefully confirm the terms; please confirm again】

The system was making unnecessary moves.

Would I not know to carefully confirm the terms?

If I had a choice, would I still sign this lousy agreement?

Confirm again.

【Agreement is in effect. Your superior lord has changed to "Master Mu Chang Ning." Taoyuan Village's affiliation has changed to "Master Mu Chang Ning."】
