A vicious female is trapped in a beastly hell.

Chapter 95 Sell Me Your Life
Almost the instant Shen Tang was attacked, Xiao Jin transformed into his true form, a black panther, and rushed forward with lightning speed, tackling the attacker to the ground.

Sharp, icy claws pressed firmly against the orc's neck.

His golden, beastly eyes were filled with cold, violent rage, and his voice was deep and dangerously menacing.
"court death!"

As he spoke, he was about to swing his sharp claws to end the man's life.

Shen Tang quickly got up from the ground and stopped him, saying, "Wait, don't kill him yet!"

Xiao Jin stopped what he was doing, his cold, beastly eyes looking at her with puzzlement. "This orc wants to kill you, why keep him alive?"

Shen Tang looked at the young orc who was being suppressed by Xiao Jin. He looked to be around adulthood, with a striking head of short orange hair, a tall and slender build, handsome appearance, good talent, and a strength of the fourth rank.

But at this moment, his eyes were bloodshot, and his gaze toward Shen Tang was filled with hatred and rage, making his face look distorted and terrifying. Blood was smeared on the corner of his lips, and his smile was somewhat crazed. "If you have the guts, kill me. Otherwise, when I finish my sentence, I will kill you sooner or later!"

Shen Tang's heart skipped a beat, and she cursed inwardly: The mess left by the original owner is truly a disaster!

Given the sins she committed in the past, even assassins couldn't kill her all.

Constantly being on guard isn't a solution; Shen Tang needs to find an opportunity to completely change the orcs' impression of her.

Shen Tang forced a relatively gentle smile. "Can I know why you hate me so much?"

The young orc spat viciously and cursed, "You bastard, how dare you say that? If it weren't for you, Sandthroat City wouldn't have been breached by the rebels!"

"Our family wouldn't have been scattered and forced to flee to distant lands, our fate unknown!"

Amidst the orcs' curses, Shen Tang pieced together the whole story.

His homeland, Sandthro, was captured by rebels due to the machinations of its original owner.

To escape the war, the family had to flee to other places to live, and relatives either died or were separated from each other during the war.

His father, who was a beast, lost a leg in the war and died of depression less than two years later.

His beast mother also caught a cold on the way and never recovered, becoming paralyzed and bedridden.

The orcs present all looked on with sympathy. If they had been killed and their families destroyed, they would surely have also been tempted to kill.

Many inmates looked at Shen Tang with hidden anger. If it weren't for Xiao Jin and the city lord being there, they probably would have pounced on her and torn her to pieces!

Shen Tang felt a chill run down her spine, as if she were being pricked by needles.

She took a deep breath, looked at the orange-haired orc pinned to the ground, and said in a deep voice, "You rushed in so recklessly, did you even think about what would happen if you failed? Assassinating a female is a serious crime. No matter what I have done in the past, this crime alone is enough to send you to the execution ground."

The orc sneered, "So what if I die? I'm not afraid. As long as I have the chance to drag you down to hell, death is worth it!"

Ha, he's got guts and a temper.

Shen Tang's smile vanished slightly, and she said coldly,

"After you die, have you thought about what will happen to your seriously ill and paralyzed mother?"

The orc's expression froze for a moment, his face turned ashen, his teeth clenched, and the veins on his neck bulged.

"If you dare touch my Beast Mother, I'll haunt you even in death!"

He looked like he was about to rush forward and fight to the death, but Xiao Jin's face darkened. He used his sharp claws to pin him down, slashing several bloody gashes across his chest and neck, tearing flesh apart.

His voice was deep and violent, "If you dare to move again, I'll kill you right now!"

The orc dared not move again, his face filled with humiliation and anger, his heart brimming with hatred.

Shen Tang walked up to him and said solemnly, "I was wrong about what happened before. I apologize to you here, and also to all the orcs I have hurt."

The orange-haired orc was stunned, never expecting her to apologize.

A moment of silence fell over the crowd. Then, someone sneered, "Ha, now she knows how to apologize? How hypocritical! The people she killed can't come back, what's the use of an apology?"

"If she really knew she was wrong, she wouldn't have done those despicable things back then."

"A leopard can't change its spots. I think this vile woman is just scared of being assassinated, that's why she's saying this on purpose. Look at her hypocritical face, it's utterly disgusting."

"Exactly, anyone can say some high-sounding, polite words."

"How hypocritical and disgusting!"

"..."

Hearing the whispers in the crowd, the insults grew increasingly vile. Shen Li frowned slightly and turned to look at Shen Tang.

But she remained unmoved, as if she had long been accustomed to the insults.

Shen Tang said, "The damage from the past cannot be undone, but I am willing to do my best to make amends."

"Heh, make amends? What can you do?" the orange-haired orc sneered.

Shen Tang said, "I can cure your beast mother's ailment."

The orange-haired orc was stunned, then frowned and said angrily, "Even the doctors in the imperial city are helpless, what can a female like you do?"

Shen Tang suppressed his displeasure and said coldly, "If I can save your beast mother, how about you grant me one request?"

The orange-haired orc clearly didn't believe her, but seeing her so confident, he was inexplicably led over and subconsciously asked, "What are the conditions?"

Shen Tang spoke slowly and deliberately.
"Sell me your life."

Upon hearing this, the entire room fell silent; you could hear a pin drop.

The orange-haired orc stood there dumbfounded, forgetting even to struggle, his eyes filled with astonishment.

Shen Tang looked at him defiantly, "So? Do you dare to agree?"

The orc snapped out of his daze, staring intently at her, his voice barely audible as he gritted his teeth, "Fine, as long as you can save my beast mother, my worthless life is yours. From this day forward, I will be loyal to you and never betray you!"

He didn't believe Shen Tang would actually be kind enough to save someone, nor did he believe she had the ability.

He wanted to see how this shameless, wicked woman would explain her lie!

But what happened next made his expression change drastically.

Shen Tang smiled and exchanged a few words with the city lord, who then ordered his bedridden beast mother to be brought to the square.

The orc's eyes turned bloodshot as he roared, "I did this! It has nothing to do with my beast mother!"

The orcs present looked sorrowful, recalling Shen Tang's past perverted acts of abusing orcs, and realized that he must want to use his beast mother to torture him and vent his anger.

Unexpectedly, the next second, Shen Tang stepped forward, and a soft green light emanated from her palm.

Everyone was cheered up.

The orcs who were nearby could faintly sense that gentle power, full of vitality.

The emaciated old woman, who seemed to have only a few breaths left, was slowly recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Her pale, gaunt face regained color, and with the orc's help, she was able to get up and walk.

The old beast mother had no idea what was happening. She was overjoyed to feel her body recovering, but when she saw her son lying on the ground, looking disheveled, she exclaimed, "Xiao'er, what happened to you? What happened?"
