After they finished pouring out their feelings, night had fallen. They had endless things to talk about, but their conversation was dominated by anger. They had never imagined the Lan Family would enslave members of the Tu Family in their mines. The Lan Family actually owned more than one mine, and although Tuo Yunhai's parents had searched, they couldn't find him.
They had even been to the very mine where Tuo Yunhai had been held, but his name wasn't on the roster. Normally, the slaves' real names would be recorded, making it easier for family to find them when they came to pay the ransom. The price was a flat one million Primordial Stones for anyone, which was a very profitable sum.
According to Tuo Yunhai, he had given his real name, but it simply wasn't on the roster. His name had clearly been changed. The Lan Family had deliberately ordered the guards to alter the records so that no real names would appear, which was why Tuo Yunhai's parents had been unable to find him.
