Just as they were filled with doubt, Qin Mo spoke again, but what she said was even more incomprehensible to the Japanese.
“Besides the five rolls of silk, you have another option…” Qin Mo gestured to his personal guard to open a chest he carried with him and take out a smaller box.
"Inside here is a copy of a cultivation technique and a 'medicine,' as well as an opportunity, a very slim one."
Seeing everyone staring intently at the box in her hand, Qin Mo thought to herself, "It's not that I didn't give you a chance, but this chance was really slim for you."
"This opportunity... is the opportunity to become a cultivator, obtained by exchanging a large amount of military merits from the General's Mansion. Now... how will you choose?"
