Chapter 737 – Nether Maiden’s Invitation! (1/2)
Nether Maiden!
The number one monstrous genius on the Hallowed Rankings, Nether Maiden!
Yang Ye and the others revealed solemn expressions on their faces when they saw her. Because their strengths were even sufficient for them to instantly notice an ant around them. However, they hadn’t noticed her arrival at all. The most terrifying part was that even if she was standing right before them right now, they still couldn’t sense her aura. It was like there was no one in front of them!
Nether Maiden’s eyes were pitch black, so others couldn’t see the expression in her eyes at all. However, both the violet robed man and the other woman were able to notice that Nether Maiden’s gaze had descended onto the seemingly ordinary fellow who stood by their side.
This made them feel rather surprised, but they were even more surprised when she nodded slightly to him….
That’s a greeting! Both of their eyes instantly opened wide.
Yang Ye was slightly stunned when he saw her greet him. He hadn’t expected that she would actually greet him. But while he didn’t understand why she did that, he still nodded in response. After all, he respected those who respected him.
Nether Maiden’s figure floated off and instantly arrived before the jade counter at the center.
Meanwhile, a blue barrier of light suddenly appeared before the counter. Yang Ye noticed that both the violet robed man and the woman’s bodies had instantly tensed up when the barrier of light appeared, and they stared fixedly at it.
Yang Ye was quite curious, so he looked over as well. The 3 of them watched as Nether Maiden raised her hand slowly, and then she waved her hand lightly against the barrier of light.
The barrier of light trembled violently, and then countless fine cracks started spreading like a spiderweb.
She waved her hand again….
Crack!
This time, the cracks on the barrier instantly spread further, and then it was on the verge of shattering. At this moment, she waved her hand again!
Bang!
They watched as the barrier of light exploded apart, and it transformed into countless blue specks that fell to the ground.
The violet robed man and the other woman exchanged glances, and there was dense bitterness and helplessness in their eyes!
After the barrier of light shattered, Nether Maiden withdrew a point card and lightly swiped it against the top of the jade counter. After that, a black scroll appeared in her hand.
At this moment, Yang Ye was shocked, extremely shocked. He wasn’t shocked because she’d blasted that barrier of light apart, he was shocked because he saw the label on that black scroll….
200,000 points!
How costly was 200,000 points? It was a few times more costly than a Dao Rank technique!
Are Saint Rank techniques that terrifying?
Yang Ye grew even more curious about the Saint Rank techniques. He didn’t know if the Mortal Sword within the Tri-Apex Sword Technique he’d cultivated was a Dao Rank or Saint Rank technique. The reason he didn’t know was mainly because he’d never laid eyes on a Saint Rank technique. Even though he’d clashed with Nether Maiden that day, both of them hadn’t fought seriously! So, while she’d cultivated Saint Rank techniques, he hadn’t witnessed their might!
Nether Maiden glanced at the scroll, put it away, and then turned around and walked towards the stairway. She suddenly stopped when she arrived at the stairs, and then she turned around and gazed at Yang Ye, “I accept a mission, and it’s slightly difficult. But its rewards aren’t bad. It’ll provide a reward of 400,000 points once it’s completed. Are you interested?”
The violet robed man and the woman were instantly stunned on the spot. They’d never imagined that Nether Maiden would actually invite this seemingly ordinary fellow to complete a mission with her!
My G.o.d! That’s Nether Maiden! The 1st on the Hallowed Rankings!
The reason Qin Die and Qingfeng were shocked was mainly because they’d never heard of Nether Maiden taking others with her when she completed missions. Because she usually dealt with them herself. Yet now, she’d actually invited someone….
Their gazes descended onto Yang Ye once more, and they stared fixedly at him as if they wanted to see through him!
Yang Ye was quite surprised. He hadn’t expected that she would invite him to head out on a mission. At this moment, he felt that something was off because the feeling she gave him since they met in the Hallowed Grounds was like she knew him! It was quite an absurd feeling because if she did recognize him, then he would have been annihilated by the Hallowed Halls a long time ago!
That was the main reason why Yang Ye was bewildered. If she doesn’t recognize me, then why is she constantly being nice to me? Could it be that she was shocked by the strength I revealed earlier? But that’s clearly impossible….
Yang Ye thought for quite a while before he said, “How many points can I get?” Even though he didn’t know why she was doing this, he’d decided to go on that mission with her. Firstly, he really did need points, and he needed a huge amount. Because he needed 100,000 points at least to enter the PaG.o.da of Confinement. Secondly, he wanted to get close to her and see what her true strength was like!
“It’ll depend on your own strength!” She replied, “I’ll come for you 3 days from now!” She vanished on the spot once she finished speaking.
“Who’re you!?” Qin Die suddenly walked over to Yang Ye once Nether Maiden left, and he stared fixedly at Yang Ye as he said, “Nether Maiden has never liked to talk with others, even if it’s Unseeing who’s ranked at the 2nd position on the Hallowed Rankings. But she actually invited you! Tell me, is there something between the two of you!?”
Yang Ye replied, “Believe me, I’ll tell her what you just said!”
Qin Die’s face instantly fell, and then he smiled with embarra.s.sment and said, “I was joking. It was just a joke. Even though you don’t seem too shabby, it’s impossible for her to fall for you.”
When he noticed that Yang Ye’s expression was quite unsightly, Qin Die hurriedly spoke with a serious expression on his face, “Brother, who exactly are you? Don’t tell me that you’re just a pa.s.serby. That would be an insult to my intelligence!”
