Chapter 90 78: The Longsword Remains Sheathed (Please Subscribe)_3
"..."
Chen Yi thought to himself, he only wished for Ye Lin to die.
But Jiang Yunni was different, she wanted Ye Lin to live a life worse than death.
He could only say that she truly lives up to being a Fairy, her thoughts on revenge are remarkably... unique.
However, he liked it.
Jiang Yunni, seeing his expression, guessed his thoughts and couldn't help but reveal a bitter smile.
"Killing Ye Lin would certainly not end with Ye Ningxiu letting bygones be bygones."
Crippling him would be the same.
Chen Yi shook his head internally and said, "If you've thought this through, you must have been planning for quite some time; tell me your strategy."
If the strategy was feasible, he didn't mind making a move.
After all, the malice lock on his panel had him equating Ye Lin with the previous Duke Jingye, Zhou Tiance.
"Senior, my plan is this..."
After a long while, Chen Yi nodded his head after listening, indicating that he agreed with her strategy. However, he still said, "The price is still not enough. Think carefully about the terms."
Yun Ni Fairy's strategy was not complex.
She planned to use herself as bait to lure Ye Lin into an array that had been set up in advance.
Before that, she would find a way to seriously injure Xin Kehai, the Array elder.
This was the premise for Chen Yi to make a move.
If this step was not completed, she would not continue with the strategy and would not need Chen Yi's help.
Jiang Yunni, hearing that he still had not agreed, couldn't help but bite her lip, feeling indescribably bitter.
After all, relying on others is not as good as relying on oneself.
After a moment of contemplation, she took out several items from her bosom and placed them on the table, taking a deep breath and said:
"Yun Ni does not wish to trouble senior."
"Here, in addition to the location of the Array Eye, there are both money and magic artifacts, as well as a treasure map."
"A treasure map?"
Chen Yi glanced over the money and magic artifacts, and looked towards the last item, an ancient-looking scroll, flicking a Sword Qi from his finger.
The scroll slowly unfurled, revealing a rough sketch.
A few hasty strokes depicted mountains, lakes, and the sea, with an "X" marking a spot.
In the lower right corner, there were two lines of small characters that read: "Taizhou Mountain, Valley of Forgetfulness."
"What is Taizhou Mountain?"
"Yun Ni is not sure either," Jiang Yunni shook her head, "This treasure map was given to me by my master on his deathbed."
"He only told me that if I could reach the Third Grade Heavenly Union Realm before the age of thirty, I could then go to this place."
There's also a cultivation level restriction?
No, more accurately, it was a restriction on innate talent.
Chen Yi knew very well that according to the board's "past life" progression, a girl with her kind of talent would only be at the Fourth Grade Spirit Aperture Realm at thirty-one years old.
But he didn't know whether she was in the early, middle, or late stage of it.
Presumably, she was about to advance to the Third Grade Heavenly Union Realm.
However, the panel's projections couldn't really be taken as truth anymore.
At least given his and the girl's current progress, it's possible for their cultivation to reach the third-rank or even higher before the age of thirty.
"And what's the treasure on here?"
"Master didn't specify, but he warned me that once the treasure inside emerged, it would bring about fatal trouble and told me to handle it with utmost caution."
Chen Yi nodded, tapping his fingers on the wooden table and pondered for a long while before asking:
"Are you sure you want to put out such treasures for Ye Lin's sake? Won't you regret it?"
"Yun Ni only seeks senior's help, with no regrets!"
Seeing this, Chen Yi no longer hesitated and put everything on the table into his Sumeru Bag.
"This matter, I agree to it. When the time comes, I shall be there."
Joy flashed across Jiang Yunni's eyes, "Thank you, senior, Yun Ni can't thank you enough!"
Chen Yi nodded, rising leisurely and reminded her:
"Remember what you said earlier. If Sect Leader Ye seeks retaliation afterwards, you know what consequence awaits."
"Please rest assured, senior, Yun Ni would never forget your great kindness."
Jiang Yunni bowed solemnly, "And as of this day, Yun Ni is wholly aligned with senior."
"In the future, whatever senior commands, Yun Ni will do her utmost."
In truth, she had come to the black market just looking for an Evil Demon to act, preferably someone from Bai Shen Sect, to facilitate distancing herself from any direct involvement.
Also, she hadn't thought of offering the money, magic artifacts, and the treasure map at first.
But during her conversation with Chen Yi, she suddenly realized that with his strength, he was worth the gamble.
Especially since Chen Yi was from the Grand Void Sect and couldn't influence Yuhua Immortal Sect, making it safe to proceed.
Perhaps in the future, she would still need to ask him for help.
"Hopefully."
"Fairy Yun Ni, we shall part ways here."
Chen Yi inwardly sneered; he wouldn't take such words to heart.
Their relationship was born out of mutual benefit and would continue to be so in the future.
They weren't a couple, how could they truly be of one heart?
What do you think?
