Chapter 1572 - 632: Rejection, Xi Jiuye

Chapter 1572: Chapter 632: Rejection, Xi Jiuye

Xi Jiuye stared at Ye Lingyue.

"Xi Jiuye, what do you mean by this?"

"I’ve already told you, if you beg me once, I’ll let you have this batch of captives. You should understand that you’re not a match for me. It won’t cost you anything to say a simple ’please’. Otherwise, if they fall into the hands of Third Young Master, you should know the consequences better than I do."

Xi Jiuye’s voice was cold but exceptionally firm.

He watched as Ye Lingyue’s crystal-clear eyes, like they were soaked in Clear Spring, gradually changed, feeling an unspeakable pleasure in his heart.

This damn woman, always baring her fangs and brandishing her claws at him, this time she ought to be at a disadvantage.

"Xi Jiuye, you’re not only cold-blooded but also despicable."

Ye Lingyue spat, her eyes filled with disgust.

The look in her eyes made Xi Jiuye’s heart shrink intensely, a suffocating discomfort sweeping through his body.

Why is it so similar?

Those eyes that had been etched in his heart for hundreds of years now vividly appeared before him.

Suppressing the discomfort in his heart, Xi Jiuye sneered coldly.

"As you said, I am indeed that kind of person. So, will you beg or not?"

"In your dreams, Xi, you want Ling Yue..."

Guangzi jumped up, about to curse.

But Ye Lingyue quickly covered her mouth.

"Guangzi, no need to waste words with this kind of person, whether in the past, now, or in the future, I will never plead with such a cold-blooded despicable beast."

Ye Lingyue’s words were resolute, leaving no room for negotiation.

Xi Jiuye’s face turned ashen instantly.

A cold and fierce aura that he couldn’t suppress spread from his body. He stared fiercely at Ye Lingyue’s small lips that kept opening and closing, suddenly feeling an urge to hold that woman in his arms and ravage her adorable little mouth.

Just imagining the sweet taste inside that little mouth made Xi Jiuye feel a surge of heat coursing through his body.

Astounded by the changes in his body, Xi Jiuye became even more irritable. He took a deep breath, forcing down the heat within him.

"Good damn scolding, since that’s the case, I never said those words. Third Young Master Jin, do as you please."

Only then did Third Young Master Jin come back to his senses, looking at Xi Jiuye and then at Ye Lingyue with some confusion.

Why did he feel that the atmosphere just now was strange?

Usually, Xi Jiuye was cold and indifferent to everyone, so why did he become so odd every time he encountered this ugly team leader from Huangquan City?

But since Xi Jiuye wasn’t interfering, he continued to deal with that woman unceremoniously.

"One hundred sixty thousand."

One hundred sixty thousand merit points to buy ten captives from the Reincarnation Realm, this price left the onlooking team leaders slack-jawed.

Captain Li laughed so much that his eyes turned into crescents.

Third Young Master Jin looked lavish and extravagant, which enraged Guangzi and the others so much they almost ground their teeth.

"No need... don’t need to do it for me..."

Ye Liuyun, who hadn’t spoken all this time, finally couldn’t help but speak softly.

She had long recognized Ye Lingyue.

Being able to come to Senluo Wanxiang City, her cousin was at least a team leader of the fourth or fifth-tier representative team.

Ye Liuyun did not acknowledge her to avoid burdening Ye Lingyue.

When Ye Lingyue managed to get Ye Liuyun into the Yaochi Immortal Pavilion, Ye Liuyun knew that this little cousin of hers was very capable and that one day she would stand at the pinnacle of the mainland.

A captive cousin was a stain on Ye Lingyue’s honor, so Ye Liuyun pretended to be deaf and mute, deliberately ignoring Ye Lingyue.

She thought this would make her cousin give up and stop caring.

Yet unexpectedly, instead of giving up, Ye Lingyue astonishingly offered fifteen thousand merit points for her.

She didn’t feel worthy at all.

"Who said you’re not worthy? I say you are, then you are worthy. Sixteen thousand merit points, right? I’ll offer sixteen thousand one hundred!"

For Ye Lingyue, who already had many problems, an extra thousand merit points was no big deal.

Today, she was determined to save Ye Liuyun; she could not let Ye Liuyun fall into the hands of someone like Third Young Master Jin.

"Oh, so that’s how it is. Sixteen thousand and one hundred, huh? Then I’ll go with seventeen..."

Third Young Master Jin was about to raise the price when Guangzi suddenly darted over to him.

"Third Young Master Jin~"

That call was so captivating that Third Young Master Jin almost fell apart. Seeing Guangzi wink at him, his very soul seemed to leave him.

"Miss Guangzi~"

Completely forgetting he was still in an auction, Third Young Master Jin reached out his greasy hand to grab Guangzi’s hand.

"Jin, stay away from Guangzi."

On the side, Qin Xiaochuan pulled Guangzi away, glaring at Third Young Master Jin.

"Kid, get out of my way. Didn’t you see Miss Guangzi was talking to me?"

Compared with Guangzi, those female captives were nothing. Being favored by a beauty like Guangzi and having his good fortune interrupted infuriated Third Young Master Jin.

The two bickered back and forth, waging a verbal war.

Guangzi, the instigator, watched from the side, occasionally adding fuel to the fire with a few provocative comments.

"Gentlemen, are you going to raise the price or not?"

Captain Li couldn’t help but step forward and ask.

Xi Jiuye glanced at Guangzi, feeling she looked familiar.

Just as he was about to take a closer look, Third Young Master Jin spoke up.

"Out of consideration for Miss Guangzi, I won’t raise the price. However, since the Huangquan Team offered sixteen thousand one hundred, as long as they can provide that many merit points, these ten captives are theirs."

Third Young Master Jin assumed Ye Lingyue had no extra merit points.

"Captain Li, I might not have enough merit points. Could I possibly sell some things and then...?"

Ye Lingyue figured there might still be some Spiritual Artifacts and Elixir Pills in her Qiankun Bag that could be exchanged for value.

If worst comes to worst, she could have Bo Qing come over. He still had plenty of Spiritual Artifacts on him, and selling one or two should fetch enough merit points.

"Sorry, young lady, I only accept merit point transactions, no credit. If you can’t produce sixteen thousand one hundred merit points on the spot, I can only sell these captives to Third Young Master Jin."

Captain Li was uncompromising.

"Please, give me a moment. I’ll keep looking."

Ye Lingyue hadn’t expected the auction area would allow no such delays.

Driven into desperation, Ye Lingyue remembered that there was a Jiu Provinces Card in her Qiankun Life Bag.

The card was previously given by Master Zi through the Three Realms Eagle. Ye Lingyue hadn’t examined it closely and didn’t know if it contained any merit points.

Regardless, she decided to take it out and check; she’d think of something else if it didn’t work.
