Beauty and the Bodyguard

8530 Chapter 8529-

The masked woman’s tone was much more relaxed, probably because she had already entered the underground Devil’s Cave.

Immediately, she smiled and said,”little brother, don’t be surprised. Rules are dead, but people are alive. As long as there is enough demand, there will naturally be a corresponding countermeasure.”

“By the way, little brother, you’re not a local, are you? If you are a local, you should have heard of these things. ”

Lin Yi nodded,”that’s right. I’m from somewhere else. I’m here for the good resources in Tianxia school. I just came here, so there’s a lot of things I don’t know.”

The masked woman nodded in realization,”I knew it!” As expected, little brother is not from here, or else it would be impossible for you not to know about this matter! I’ll give you a good introduction today. ”

“In fact, there is an independent space in the underground Devil’s Den. This space is connected to the underground Devil’s dens under the martial Alliance of all the continents. Basically, every entrance to the underground Devil’s Den in the martial Alliance of all the continents on the starsource continent can enter this space.”

“We call this unique space the black market! Although the entrance to the Devil’s Den of every continent’s martial Alliance can enter the black market, you can only leave from the entrance you entered from. So, strictly speaking, it’s not allowed to use the black market as a shortcut to cross the continent. ”

“The existence of the black market is dark and can not be tolerated by the laws of the sub-Island, but it still exists! It can be said to be a gray area on the edge of the rules. Ordinary people don’t know of such a place, but those who are qualified to know have a tacit understanding. No one will say anything and let it exist. ”

“In the black market, all kinds of races can survive. There are humans, dark beasts, and even the Voodoo race that has disappeared without a trace. There are also some small ancient races.”

“The human race is divided into many forces, such as gangs, sects, aristocratic families, royal families, and so on. Everyone has a tacit understanding to gain benefits from the black market together.”

“Because the black market is complicated, there are many good things in it. If you have money, insight, and free time, you can buy some treasures in the black market. You will not be disappointed.”

Lin Yi was surprised, but he nodded.

The reason why the black market existed was probably because the higher-ups of the human race had such a need, or rather, they needed such a place.

No matter which force or individual had tyrannical strength, they would always have some things of unknown origin that could not be exposed.

He didn’t need it, and he couldn’t sell it openly, so the black market was the best place to get rid of it.

He didn’t even need to sell it and could just barter for it. It would be a good deal.

They were all things that were obtained through extraordinary means, so it was normal to sell them at a cheap price. No one would lose out.

Lin Yi was still suspicious-was the black market really that simple?

“The direction we’re going now is where the black market is. In the opposite direction is the nearest Devil’s Den. It’s a little more dangerous there. Sister didn’t lie to you, it’s still very safe with sister.”

The masked woman continued,”The black market space is also divided into regions. We are now going to the outermost region. If we want to go deeper, we need a higher status and qualification. For the time being, I can’t take you in.”

She didn’t say if she could go deeper into the area herself, only saying that she couldn’t bring Lin Yi in. It felt like Lin Yi’s status wasn’t enough.

As for the truth, only she would know. Lin Yi wasn’t interested in asking.

As the two of them spoke, their speed was not slow. After a while, they arrived at the entrance of the black market space.

It was still the masked woman who used the token to clear the way, successfully bringing Lin Yi into the black market.

The black market space was still a ghostly place that did not see the sun for the rest of its life, but his vision was not affected.

Lin Yi followed the masked woman out of a door of light, and what he saw was a messy yet neat stall.

Most of the stall owners had their faces covered, and some of them didn ‘t, but they had disguised their appearances.

Obviously, most of the people selling things here were not people who could see the light of day.

Everyone had a tacit understanding, so no one cared about this.

Lin Yi didn’t think there would be many people in the black market, but it was far beyond his imagination.

Not only were there many stalls here, but there were also many people shopping at the stalls.

Moreover, it was similar to what the masked woman had said. Some of them were obviously not of human race, but there was no conflict between them. Everyone seemed to be following the rules.

Other than the vendors, Lin Yi also found a group of tax collectors.

When a stall sold something, the stall would quickly be operated by someone else, so these tax collectors were also quite busy. They kept walking back and forth, collecting taxes from the stall owners, and the income seemed quite good.

They were dressed in the martial league’s uniform and armor. It was clear that they were not a ragtag Army, but a regular army of the martial League.

No wonder it was so easy for the masked woman to enter the underground Devil’s Den. It turned out that the martial League also had a share of the black market’s income!

Perhaps he was going in the wrong direction? Is there anything special about this black market?

Lin Yi didn’t stay in Wutong for long before, so it was normal that he didn’t know about the black market.

Now it seemed that there was an 80% chance that there was such a black market in the continent of Wutong.

“Little brother, this is the outer area of the black market space. There are a lot of stalls and the things they sell are also of a variety. There is everything, but there are good and bad mixed in it. There are many things that are like fish eyes passing off pearls. If you are not proficient in it, you will be easily cheated.”

The masked woman’s entire body burst out with enthusiasm.””If you want to walk around, big sister can take you. With big sister by your side, most stalls won’t fool you.”

Lin Yi understood-this woman was probably a shop assistant, taking him to shop and then taking a Commission from the transaction.

No wonder she greeted Lin Yi so passionately, even pulling him in with all her might.

“Before that, would you like to take a look at the nether spring Aqua fruit? Let’s finish our deal first, and big sister will take you to the stall in peace, how about it?”

Of course, he had to earn a Commission, but he couldn’t delay his own business.

However, Lin Yi wasn’t interested in the fruit. It was just an excuse.

Now that they were already in the black stone space of the underground Devil’s Cave, who would still care about the nether spring Aqua fruit?

“No, let’s walk around first. There are only benefits and no disadvantages to picking the nether spring Aqua fruit later!”

Lin Yi declined and walked towards the stalls, “I’ll have to trouble you to show me around. I don’t have much experience, so I’ll have to rely on you!”
