Chapter 962: Happy Palace!

"Such lies!" The w.a.n.g clan"s ninth elder did not have any way to refute anything, so he could only take his sword out and try to kill the stupid girl before she said anything else!

But before he could say anything he heard a voice and his body suddenly couldn"t move anymore. "Oh? You dare to cause trouble in my family"s home? Is this what the w.a.n.g clan teaches their younger generation? You can just commit murder in anyone"s house, and no one will care? No one will say anything because you are from the w.a.n.g clan?"

Rain stood up from the throne and touched her sword hilt with her hand. "There is a saying that one must show respect to others if they wish to gain respect. But here you are, trying to kill someone in my family"s home. This is disrespectful. Since you dared to do such a thing, this must mean you wish to be treated in the same way. So since you wanted to kill one person, I will respect you by killing two of you."

Rain slipped her sword from its sheath and then put it back in. No one saw her actually strike. They only saw the two elders from the w.a.n.g clan"s heads fall to the ground. "Now then…." Rain looked at the five girls who were s.h.i.+vering in fear and smiled.

"You girls have a choice. You can either join the palace as maids and live a life of freedom. Or you can go back to the w.a.n.g clan and hand over these dead bodies. But they will probably kill you in the end. So please make a decision quickly. I do not like waiting long when there is lots of work to do." Rain wanted to give the girls a chance to pick a path for themselves. She saw the look of defiance in the girls" eyes when one girl confronted the elders. They seemed all ready to die at any time in order to not be used in their schemes.

"We will work as maids!" One girl replied firmly.

"Then you will need to be bound to a contract that will never allow you to harm a person of this palace or the empire or have ideas on my Handsome Papa. Otherwise, the contract will take effect, and you will burn to death. Do you still wish to become maids after hearing this?" Rain asked. All five nodded without any hesitation. With that, Rain waved her hand and formed five magic circle contracts, and moved them to sit in front of the five girls. "Drop blood on this magic circle, and you will from henceforth bound by these rules. Besides that, you can do as you please. Find love and build a family. Whatever you wish deep in your heart. But be reminded from this day forth the w.a.n.g clan might be no more."

"We will sign." The girls had nothing left. Their parents were always looking to curry favor and offered up their daughters without even a hint of resistance, all for benefits within the clan. They just wanted freedom. Their siblings showed no signs of pity as they were being dragged away to be used as p.a.w.ns. They would die at any time if they made any mistakes. But now…. They were glad they decided to tell the truth about this matter.

Soon all five contracts were signed, and the girls were led away by Xue. Rain instructed a few guards to send the heads of the w.a.n.g clan elders back to the w.a.n.g clan with a note in one of their mouths. Only when this was settled did she burn the bodies and get rid of any mess in the throne room before returning back to her Mama"s side.

In the w.a.n.g clan, the w.a.n.g clan head was all smiles as he drank spirit wine as he eagerly waited for the w.a.n.g clan elders to return with good news. His plan was flawless. There was no way they could refuse him after all of this. And now the w.a.n.g clan will regain the status they once had!

"Clan head! It"s bad! Ninth elder and eighth elder! They are both dead!" A w.a.n.g clan guard came rus.h.i.+ng into the meeting room, ruining the mood in the air.

"What!? What do you mean!?" The w.a.n.g clan head stood up. As he did, two imperial guards walked in with the heads of the w.a.n.g clan elders with smiles on their faces.

"Princess Rain sends her regards and says that people should be respectful when entering other people"s houses. They did not take off their shoes and were treated in kind. The girls you sent over will make perfect maids and have signed a contract that binds them to the palace and the empire. From this moment on, they are no longer members of the w.a.n.g clan. There is also a note here which she so kindly put in the w.a.n.g clan"s ninth elder"s mouth. With this, our task is done, and will be returning." The two imperial guards placed the heads on the ground and kindly adjusted them to look directly at the w.a.n.g clan head before turning around and leaving the hall.

"This…" The w.a.n.g clan head slumped down into this seat as the two pairs of eyes that were staring at him with the same expressions as they had when they died and almost fainted on the spot. It took him a moment to regain his exposure before saying: "Give me the letter."

The guard did as he was asked and pulled the letter from the w.a.n.g clan"s ninth elder"s mouth and handed it to the w.a.n.g clan head. The w.a.n.g clan head opened it up and began reading it. "Thank you for coming to the Palace of Happiness! We will strive to make all our Devan Empire citizens happy. Because you so kindly took the time to visit our happy palace, we will give you a 5% off coupon for the new devan empire imperial bakery! Only the finest pastries in the empire can be found here! So please tell your friends!"

"What the h.e.l.l is this!?"
