Chapter 237: Space Spirit Crystal! (2/2)
He even briefly saw a hint of sadness in her eyes.
However, she seemed to have put away her emotions in the next moment.
She turned to Nie Tian and said, “You’ll only need to give Li Ye a third of the Space Spirit Jades that you’ve mined. I’m willing to give up my share.”
“Why?” Nie Tian was surprised.
She pointed to the crystallized Space Spirit Jade and said, “I want that.”
Li Ye jumped in and said, “Hua Tian, that crystallized Space Spirit Jade is of no use in your hands. That’s a pretty good deal. Only experts in spatial magics like my senior martial sister will be able to use a spatial spiritual tool, and crystallized Space Spirit Jades are indispensable to forge high-grade spatial spiritual tools. It means much more to her than to you.
“Even if you take it and sell it, you won’t be able to get a better deal than that in the Realm of Split Void.”
“I see,” Nie Tian nodded and said with a smile. “I’ve made more gains than I ever expected from this trip to the Void Illusion Mountain Range. Because you want this crystallized Space Spirit Jade so much, and you’re willing to make a fair trade for it, I shall accept the honor.”
Pei Qiqi was quite content. “Neat. I like your manner of doing things.” After a moment of pondering, she said, “How about this: I’ll help you sell the Space Spirit Jades in Shatter City, along with the spiritual materials and that you’ve looted from those Wild Fire members.
“You just need to tell me if you want to trade them for spirit stones or if you have something particular in mind. I’ll help you with it, either way.
“I guarantee you that with me there to help you sell them, you’ll get more in return than you would have if you sold them yourself.”
Nie Tian’s eyes lit up as he said, “Thank you!”
“Alright, it’s about time that we wrapped things up here,” Pei Qiqi urged. “Let’s get that crystallized Space Spirit Jade, gather and process the jades that you’ve already dug out, and leave.”
It appeared that she didn’t want to wait for another second to take the crystallized Space Spirit Jade and return to Shatter City.
Upon hearing her order, Nie Tian and Li Ye got down to work again.
An hour later, they stepped out of the almost-emptied mine with the crystallized Space Spirit Jade in their hands.
In the Void Illusion Mountain Range…
Nie Tian, Pei Qiqi, and Li Ye, who had already put their jade bracelets back on, were traveling along the same route that they had taken to get to the mine.
After the battle in the mine, the jade mining, and Nie Tian’s attitude when she had demanded the crystallized Space Spirit Jade, Pei Qiqi had changed her view towards Nie Tian.
On their way back, Pei Qiqi didn’t march by herself in the forefront as she had done when they had come. Instead, she marched shoulder to shoulder with Nie Tian and Li Ye. She even swallowed her pride and joined their conversations from time to time.
The atmosphere was much more friendly than when they had come.
Under the night sky, the three of them approached the cave where Pei Qiqi’s small teleportation portal was located. However, Pei Qiqi suddenly came to a stop and called out loudly, “Who’s there!? Show yourself!”
Thump! Thump!
Heavy footsteps echoed out from the distant horizon. Li Ye’s face instantly flickered as he blurted, “Damn it! Don’t tell me we’ve run into a spirit beast in this shit place!”
