Chapter 1575 - 635: Only Two Cards Exist on the Entire Mainland

Chapter 1575: Chapter 635: Only Two Cards Exist on the Entire Mainland

Senior Sister Wan Yun and the others were unwilling, but they had no other way. They could only watch helplessly as that piece of Beast Skin Paper was taken out.

The people from the Exotic Treasures Pavilion saw the card and had no choice but to apologize to Senior Sister Wan Yun as they took the card.

"Hold it."

Ye Lingyue thought for a moment, took out Master Zi’s card, and with a smack, slapped it onto the counter as well.

"I’ve got another card here. Take a look and see if I can use it to buy that Beast Skin Paper."

Dead horse, live doctor—she couldn’t just sit there and watch the Beast Skin Paper fall into Yue Mubai and his gang’s hands.

If that happened, the mystery of Zhao Tianlang’s death would probably remain unsolved forever.

"I’m telling you, ugly, stop embarrassing yourself. That card of yours doesn’t even have a name on it, it’s all tattered, and you still think it’s some VIP card?"

Third Young Master Jin and Tang Tianqi were mocking from the side, their words dripping with sarcasm.

That card of Ye’s—don’t even mention bronze or silver—just looking at it, it was like a scrap of rusty iron. Judging by its age, it was probably some obsolete antique card from who knows how many years ago.

"This is an Infinite Card?"

Who would have thought that the people from the Exotic Treasures Pavilion, the moment they saw that Nameless Card, their expressions completely changed.

"What Infinite Card? Can it be used or not?"

Ye Lingyue herself didn’t know what Master Zi’s card was called.

"Everyone, please wait a moment. I’ll go invite the chief manager over."

The reaction from the Exotic Treasures Pavilion staff left Third Young Master Jin and the others, who had just been sneering at Ye Lingyue and her card, dumbfounded.

No way, this ragged old antique card actually works?

But back in their family, they had never heard of any Infinite Card beyond bronze, silver, and gold.

It had to be that the clueless staff here had misjudged it.

In just a short while, a middle-aged woman hurried over.

She had arched brows and rosy lips. Though she was over forty, her features were elegant and dignified, and her every movement carried the grace of a great household.

When they saw the woman, even Third Young Master Jin and Tang Tianqi straightened their faces and respectfully greeted her.

"Lady Dan Yu."

The Exotic Treasures Pavilion’s enduring fame in the Ancient Nine Provinces was, to a large extent, thanks to this very Lady Dan Yu.

It was said that she was originally a direct descendant of the Dan Family in the Outer Heaven. Because she loved doing business, she founded the Exotic Treasures Pavilion. Not only that, Lady Dan Yu had a very close relationship with the Wanxiang City Lord.

In Wanxiang City, everyone had to give Lady Dan Yu some face.

Lady Dan Yu saw Third Young Master Jin, Tang Tianqi, and the other juniors, but she didn’t show much expression. She only nodded slightly as a greeting.

Her gaze fell onto that Infinite Card.

"It really is an Infinite Card?"

Lady Dan Yu’s cherry lips parted slightly in surprise as she repeatedly turned the Infinite Card over in her hands.

"May I ask whose card this is?"

"It’s mine... I mean, it’s my master’s. Lady, may I ask if this card can be used to buy that Beast Skin Paper?"

Ye Lingyue asked tentatively, feeling uneasy inside.

From the other party’s reaction, it seemed like something was off with Master Zi’s card.

Could it be that Master Zi did something shady here in the Ancient Nine Provinces back in the day, and this card has some sort of bad record?

"So it belongs to you, young lady... No, no, may I ask, my lord, who you are?"

Lady Dan Yu’s face blossomed into a smile, her attitude toward Ye Lingyue suddenly becoming excessively warm.

"I’m the team leader of the Huangquan Team. Just call me Captain Ye. Lady, about that Beast Skin Paper?"

Ye Lingyue was a bit taken aback by Lady Dan Yu’s enthusiasm.

"Of course you can. The Infinite Card is a Black Diamond Card. For all fifth-grade items in the Exotic Treasures Pavilion, it grants a flat fifty percent discount. Someone come! Hurry and wrap the item up. If you delay Captain Ye’s time, can you afford the consequences?"

Lady Dan Yu scolded.

Fifty percent discount?

Black Diamond Card?

That tattered card was actually higher than gold, silver, and bronze?

Now it was Tang Tianqi and Third Young Master Jin’s turn to be stunned.

"Lady Dan Yu, are you sure you’re not mistaken? We’ve never heard of that card."

Third Young Master Jin panicked as soon as he heard this.

"Heh~ Third Young Master Jin, the salt I’ve eaten is more than the rice you’ve eaten. If you don’t know about the Black Diamond Card, you can go back and ask the Tang Family Patriarch if he’s ever heard of it. But I can’t really blame you for your ignorance. When the Black Diamond Card was first issued, your Jin Family was still hiding in some unknown little corner. Third Young Master Jin, let me give you some advice: be more cautious in how you conduct yourself in the future, or you won’t even know how you end up dead."

Lady Dan Yu smiled faintly, yet not.

She had heard clearly that Ye Lingyue said this card belonged to her master.

On the entire Wuji Continent, there were at most only two people who held a Black Diamond Infinite Card.

Aside from the current Jiu Provinces Alliance Leader, there was also that legendary Marquis Zhongyuan from back in the day.

This young lady in front of her must be connected to one of those two.

If it was the Jiu Provinces Alliance Leader, that would still be manageable. But if it was that other one...

Lady Dan Yu didn’t dare think further. She was now torn over whether she should report this possible reappearance in the Ancient Nine Provinces to the Jiu Provinces Alliance.

Wow, Ye Lingyue was also completely dumbfounded. She lowered her head to look again at that Nameless Card.

So Master Zi was that old?

His card was actually older than the Jin Family’s ancestors’ ancestors going back eighteen generations.

Ye Lingyue thought of Master Zi’s Banished Immortal-like face and couldn’t help clicking her tongue in amazement.

"Right, about the Merit Points in that card..."

Ye Lingyue still wanted to ask how many Merit Points were actually inside the Infinite Card.

Black Diamond Card—it sounded incredibly impressive. The amount of Merit Points inside had to be huge.

If so, perhaps the hundred-plus thousand Merit Points she had spent earlier could be wiped out in one go.

But Lady Dan Yu had already handed the card back.

"Captain Ye, after the fifty percent discount, the price is one hundred thousand Merit Points. Your card has a total of one hundred and eleven thousand Merit Points advanced."

"What, advanced? You mean there are no Merit Points in this card?"

Ye Lingyue almost dropped her jaw.

"Oh, whether there are Merit Points or not, I don’t know. But according to the Jiu Provinces Alliance regulations, the Merit Points in a Jiu Provinces Card automatically expire after one jiazi. So right now there isn’t a single Merit Point left in this Infinite Card. However, the Infinite Card can be used for pre-credit. The limit is one million Merit Points. It’s just that, according to Jiu Provinces Alliance regulations, you must pay interest at a rate of five per thousand of the advanced amount per day, and it has to be repaid within one month. Otherwise, the Jiu Provinces Alliance will reclaim the Infinite Card."

Lady Dan Yu patiently explained.

After listening, Ye Lingyue almost exploded.

Master Zi, is this how you scam your disciple? Of all things, you give her a card with no Merit Points.

In the end, Ye Lingyue still used the Infinite Card to buy that Beast Skin Scroll.

"Third Young Master?"

Yue Mubai couldn’t help glancing at Third Young Master Jin.

"No point calling me. Didn’t you hear that’s a fifty-percent card? I’ll have to report this to the family when we get back."

Third Young Master Jin was also speechless. He could only swallow his frustration and watch as Ye Lingyue and her people happily walked off with the Beast Skin Scroll.

Side Scene: Master Zi:

Some ten thousand eight thousand meters high in the sky, Master Zi suddenly sneezed. He took out the portrait he always carried with him, looked at it for a while, and a faint smile curved the corner of his lips.

"It’s already been more than five hundred years..."
