Seeing Lan Ge's attentive manner, Sheng Xia's heart softened and she smiled in response: "We're going to set up a stall in the square to sell things now. You... can have your partner deliver it there. It'll cost twenty-five shell coins."

Lan Ge's eyes lit up, and she stepped forward, asking somewhat eagerly, "Setting up a stall? What are you selling? I'll buy!"

Twenty-five shell coins aren't enough.

Her eldest son has awakened a special ability. Not enough, not enough. Whether he buys things or not doesn't matter. She wants to give this female more shell coins.

The orcs nearby erupted in excitement upon hearing about the twenty-five cowrie shells, with the males who had cowrie shells secretly calculating their gains.

Shouldn't they also go and die?

Then go to her for help...maybe that will awaken you!

A young boy saw Sheng Xia preparing to leave, his eyes lit up, and he proactively went up to her, looking up expectantly.

“Witch doctor, can you awaken me too? I have a lot of cowrie shells, I can pay with cowrie shells, and if you don’t want cowrie shells, I have a whole house full of food.”

Hearing the little cub's whimsical words, the herd fell silent, and everyone held their breath, looking at Shengxia with curiosity and anticipation.

Will she agree?

No... she shouldn't have that kind of heaven-defying ability.

But... what if?

I thought Mantis was doomed, but he was saved, wasn't he?

The male's pursuit of ability is eternal. Seeing everyone's eager gazes, Sheng Xia, used to it, raised his head and smiled.

He looked down at the little brat who was speaking.

He was barely knee-high, with clear, bright eyes filled with admiration, and his excited little face was flushed.

Shengxia lowered her voice and said gently, "Of course not, unless you... and your whole family join our Yafatu."

Is it okay to refuse?

It's both tactful and preserves the little one's ambition, giving him hope for the pursuit of power.

Anyway, he's unlikely to actually join Yafatu.
