Chapter 1158: [(860)] Extortion? This is clearly a bit of care for an ally (asking for monthly votes)

“Why do I feel like you’re deceiving me?”

The woman in the black dress stared at Pei Jinye, her imposing aura accumulating steadily, as if millions of tons of a great mountain were slowly descending upon Pei Jinye.

Before long,

streaks of blood appeared at the corners of Pei Jinye’s mouth.

There was no anger, only laughter. A cold laughter: “The aura of the Black Nightmare is enveloping you. You’re free to strike, but the more frequent your attacks, the quicker you’ll be consumed. When you die before me, don’t expect me to bury your corpse.”

The movements of the woman in the black dress stiffened.

Suddenly, she remembered.

She turned her head.

One-fifth of her shadow had already been eaten away by the Black Nightmare.

Indeed, the speed of consumption was faster than she had imagined.

The woman in the black dress snorted coldly and grabbed him: “So, do you now know where the Inheritance Land of the Nine Ice Ascendant is?”

“I do know, not only do I know, I also know that the Nine Ice Ascendant left a formation there. Without me, even if you enter, you won’t be able to break that formation. But you possess a Sky Level Cultivation; you likely can’t even get inside.”

The woman in the black dress snorted coldly without replying, “Since you know, then lead the way now. I can guarantee, as long as you help me obtain the inheritance of the Nine Ice Ascendant, all our past grievances will be written off. The gu within your body, I will naturally remove it for you. Hereafter, with the sky vast and the sea wide, you’re free to go wherever you wish. I will not bother you again.”

“But you’ve already acted against me in front of Eternal Night, taking me along,” Pei Jinye feigned ignorance of the woman’s schemes, intentionally provoking her.

“That’s easy to handle.” The woman in the black dress smiled: “Once everything is completed, I’ll pretend to attack you, in view of Eternal Night’s people, making them believe I wish to silence you permanently. Then, I’ll give them the chance to rescue you. There is no need for you to lie, I forcibly took you away to obtain the inheritance of the Nine Ice Ascendant, the more truthful you are, the more they will trust you.”

“Since you’ve already scripted everything so well, what more can I say?” Pei Jinye sighed, as if resigned to his fate.

Seeing him like this, the corner of the woman’s mouth lifted slightly.

She had the situation tightly in her grasp once again!

“Good, then it’s settled. Let bygones be bygones, starting from now.”

Let bygones be bygones…

Pei Jinye snorted but still said: “Breaking the formation requires some materials. I don’t know much about the formation left by the Nine Ice Ascendant. The token, give it to me. You lead the way, and I will continue my research.”

The woman in the black dress hesitated.

Hand over the Black Yan Token?

She always felt like she was being outwitted again.

However, at this moment, Pei Jinye complained: “If you’re worried that I might sabotage you, you might as well kill me now. Anyway, I’m not interested in the inheritance of the Nine Ice Ascendant at all.”

“Here, take it,” the woman’s face showed difficulty maintaining her composure as she tossed the Black Yan Token over, yet she couldn’t resist saying: “Why did I feel just now, upon checking, that I couldn’t detect any information at all? Are you tricking me?”

Pei Jinye glanced over with a side-eye: “You, understand formations?”

The woman in the black dress’s breath hitched.

Flames on her body flickered.

So infuriating, she really wanted to kill someone.

Pei Jinye reached out a hand and touched the token, then spoke: “Release a wisp of your God Soul.”

The woman hesitated but then complied.

Suddenly, a screen of light seemed to appear before her.

“This is…” She was surprised all at once.

Pei Jinye’s voice rang beside her: “This is the Inheritance Land of the Nine Ice Ascendant. I’m not very familiar with this area, so you’ll have to search… This place contains a formation, see those points of light?”

“Seen them, what are those?”

“They are formations.”

“So many?” The woman in the black dress was stunned.

The dense cluster of points of light numbered at least a hundred.

“Don’t worry, some formations share the same origin, to unlock one is to unlock an entire category. The formation on the Black Yan Token itself is part of the formations here, I’m confident,” Pei Jinye confidently stated. “But now, there is something important to consider.”

The woman in the black dress instinctively looked over.

Suddenly pondering.

If only this kid could always follow me, that would be great.

There are still so many inheritances in this world… if all of them were unraveled, wouldn’t I become filthy rich?

She came back to her senses and looked over: “What’s the matter, speak your mind.”

“I’m hungry, I need to eat some spiritual objects as a supplement.”

“?”

The woman in the black dress glared angrily at him.

Pei Jinye said impatiently: “I’ve spent enough energy along the way, if you have any Dan Medicine you can give it to me too, treating me like a Sky Level Matrix Controller.”

“…”

The woman in black, knowing she was at fault, took out a bottle of Dan Medicine from her bosom, but only took out one pill.

“This pill is called Fasting Pill, one is enough to last you half a month.”

“Stingy.”

Pei Jinye muttered under his breath, making the woman so angry that she tried to snatch back the Fasting Pill, but Pei Jinye swiftly swallowed it.

“The hunger is gone, but my God Soul is vastly depleted.”

“…”

The woman in black hesitated for a bit, then with much pain she took out another bright yellow Dan Medicine.

“Eat it, this one replenishes the God Soul.”

“That, uh…”

Just as Pei Jinye was about to speak.

The woman bit her teeth and interrupted: “I warn you, don’t go too far!”

The inheritance hasn’t been obtained, and already I’ve given up two Spirit Pills – too excessive!

Pei Jinye looked calmly and said: “I just wanted to ask you, how much do you know about Nine Ice Ascendant? It would be better if we could find his descendants, maybe our speed at breaking the Formation would be faster.”

However, the woman in black shook her head: “Nine Ice Ascendant married early but didn’t father any children. After his wife passed away from illness, he had no more attachments and devoted himself to cultivation… I’ve never heard of him having any descendants.”

Pei Jinye frowned slightly.

No descendants?

Then why would such information be left on the token?

“Perhaps, the descendants of his family?”

“Family descendants?”

The woman in black paused noticeably and thoughtfully said: “There are.”

“We should find them, see if we can learn something.” Pei Jinye said immediately.

But the woman in black shook her head: “No need.”

Pei Jinye looked at her wordlessly.

The woman in black said nonchalantly: “I’ve already killed them.”

“Killed them?” Pei Jinye looked at her.

It wasn’t surprising, after all, this crazy woman had a bit of a demonic nature in her.

The woman in black didn’t show any sign of shame, simply stating as a matter of course: “They were disobedient, so killing them was that.”

She glanced at Pei Jinye’s expression.

The woman in black said indifferently: “The idea of finding a solution through the descendants of Nine Ice Ascendant, I’ve considered it too. But facts have proved, they knew nothing.”

Pei Jinye had nothing to say.

Without the bloodline as a lead, it wouldn’t be so easy to fool the Artifact Spirit of True Ice Tower.

Seeing Pei Jinye suddenly fall silent, the woman herself also fell into silence.

After a while, she said faintly: “Did I… do something wrong?”

“…”

“Hmph, as if I could ever be wrong!”
