Chapter 53 - Did I triggered another flag? (1/2)
The third floor was deserted, without a single visitor present. The moment he entered the third floor, Jean instantly felt a incomparably strong aura pave over. With a glance, he discovered that the huge third floor was filled with all sorts of exquisite jade boxes and wooden boxes.
At the same time, gusts of fluctuating profound energy also spread over. Jean quickly noticed that the room was filled with invisible formations, some of which were defensive formations, while others were attack formations. Once anything out of the ordinary occurred, these formations would instantly start up.
Maid: Elder Qiao, this guest would like 3 Blood Red Crystals, a Scarlet Lava Lotus and a Devil's Flaming Blood Crystal.
The old man that was sitting a bit far away looked at Jean with a slight surprise and got around the floor to pick the items.
Elder Qiao: Well well well, are you perhaps trying to make a Earth Profound Nirvana Pellet?
Jean: You guessed it right.
The Elder didn't pressed further and told him.
Elder Qiao: 120 Purple Profound Coins for the Blood Red Crystals, 100 Purple Profound Coins for the Scarlet Lava Lotus and 600 Purple Profound Coins for the Devil's Flaming Blood Crystal.
Jean immediately took out his Profound Currency Card, and after deducting 820 Purple Profound Coins, he stored all the items he bought, he already had the other materials stolen from the Xiao Sect so he is alright now.
With his objective achieved, Jean left with the guidance of the maid. Right as he arrived at the end of the stairs, another maid with a woman clad in white walked over.
This was a woman masked with an ice silk gauze veil; her body was covered with a pristine snowy attire, and a thin ice veil masked her appearance, only revealing a pair of ice-cold beautiful eyes.
Jean: 'What the hell? Did she come from the snowy Arabia?'
That thought distracted him from seeing the girl's figure, that would surely hypnotize him if he glanced at them.
Jean just climbed down from the stairs, forgetting about her.
Jasmine: This tiny Blue Wind Empire, is indeed a crouching tiger and hidden dragon.
Jean: What the heck is that supposed to mean?
Jasmine: Peak of the 10th Sky Profound Realm… a half-step from the Emperor Profound Realm! Strong enough to be considered one of the top ten practitioners in Blue Wind Empire!
Jean's legs went soft on the spot and almost face-planted onto the stairs, but something stopped him, it was his instinct that told him that something wasn't right… It was the same sensation he got when he thought that Jasmine couldn't possibly be a Profound God… Did I trigger another flag? Absolutely yes.
What was the flag? She will come to him when she will notice that he has the Devil's Flaming Blood Crystal. Why? Because he noticed that she was poisoned with an extreme yin-type poison, and the Devil's Flaming Blood Crystal is an extreme yang-type material.
Meanwhile, the white-clothed woman arrived in front of the old man with the maid's guidance. The maid respectfully said.
Maid: Elder Qiao, this esteemed customer would like a Devil's Flaming Blood Crystal.
Elder Qiao: The only Devil's Flaming Blood Crystal we had in stock was just purchased by that young man.
I fuċkɨnġ told you, Myself! Run like the bitch you are!
When Jean heard the man talking about him to the woman, he was already out from the Black Moon Merchant Guild, he hastened his steps, and when he was some dozen of meters away, his walk turned into a run.
Jasmine: Why are you running?
Jean: I bet that girl will immediately come to seek me…
Just as Jean finished speaking, a gust of cold wind blew past his body. The scene in front of him blurred for a moment as white clothes fluttered, and the snowy-veiled woman appeared in front of him like an illusion.
A pair of beautiful eyes emotionlessly stared at him. Jean's gaze had been attracted to her the moment she appeared, because everything around him, even the sky and the earth, lost its color in comparison.
Jean: 'Shit…' What do you want?
