Suo Jia abruptly lifted his hand to stop Nicole fro any further, and he firmly stated, “You still don’t understandto logic, round was already incomprehensible, but didn’t I do it anyways?”
Nicole’s eyes lit up That’s right…although they were already safe now, Nicole knew that the execution ground incident was still very dangerous It could be said that Suo Jia had risked his own life to save her If he illing to even give up on his own life, then was there anything that he’d be unwilling to sacrifice?
Nicole finally steadied her resolve, and nodded “Fine Since you insist on asking, then I’ll just tell you; no matter whether you help me or not, I won’t blahts, then declared, “Althoughprowess is spread far and wide, it’s just a name that had been established by our ancestors In reality, our fa out of the thief circle the past few generations”
“Oh,” Suo Jia looked at Nicole strangely and asked in confusion “That shouldn’t be so; if your ancestors are so famous, there’s no reason for the descendants to not follow in their footsteps”
Nicole replied flatly, “Perhaps you find it really hard to understand, but this is all very nor it My parents still feel really strongly about power and influence, and they don’t like having such a risky career”
Suo Jia nodded in colance, this reason seemed far-fetched, it was actually the most important reason If they didn’t like it, they naturally wouldn’t want to deal with it; people always enjoyed the things they liked
As treasure hunters, they could possess endless wealth However, they’d never have any power or influence to speak of Since Nicole’s parents felt so strongly about power, they’d naturally abandon their previous line of work
Nicole continued, “You should also know that as an influential family of treasure hunters, especially people like us that are fa prowess, we are extreold, my parents quickly became aristocrats, and smoothly entered the aristocrats circle”
“Hh s that it couldn’t do At the very least, money was able to turn someone into a noble
Suo Jia asked in confusion, “Isn’t that a good thing? Since they became aristocrats and have so much money, how have they fallen to this point?”
Nicole fiercely clenched her teeth and said, “The aristocrats are filthy things Their greed is insatiable; after experiencing the sweet taste of power, they beca riches froer able to bear the heavy burden and refused, those so-called nobles finally revealed their sharievously, “Urged by their greed,to defect to another country, so my whole family was banished Our assets were also coe to collect 10 billion frads will they release my family”
“Hm,” Suo Jia asked in confusion, “Didn’t you say that your parents had already died? Then why are you talking about being released now?”
Nicole shook her head and patiently replied, “That’s right, o The empire’s enemies must be beheaded Even the fast the soldiers If it it weren’t for the fact that I’d told them the locations of all my faht now”
A warm expression unfolded on Nicole’s face as she said in a low voice, “My parents are no longer here, but…er sisters still are I have to collect 10 billion in order for theain their freedoreat of a price I ather 10 billion frads and rescue thehed in admiration The frad was Kaya Eold In other words, Nicole needed to gather 20 billion gold to rescue her younger siblings
Suo Jia asked in concern, “In that case, howthe past 10 years?”
