Ye Chen was slightly taken aback. It seed that the Profound Maiden had overheard the conversation with Huo Yu just now.
So, the secret talks among Huo Yu and the others were all known to the Profound Maiden.
Thinking about how Huo Yu and the others acted as if they were guarding against a thief, even creating a secret room, it all seed quite amusing.
The Profound Maiden looked at Ye Chen and smiled, "This is a Talent of my Spirit Communication race. Whether it’s hearing or sight, compared to others, they are on a higher Level."
Ye Chen nodded. The Profound Maiden misunderstood; he wasn’t curious about this at all.
"So, what brings you to my place all of a sudden today?" The Profound Maiden’s smile was very charming.
The bright sunlight fell on the side of the Profound Maiden’s face, making it appear extrely fair in the light.
Ye Chen took out the Soul Pearl, placed it in his hand, and asked, "A few days ago, I hunted down a LV30 monster and got this thing. It says it’s only useful for monsters, so I brought it for you to take a look."
Upon seeing the Soul Pearl, the Profound Maiden’s smiling face imdiately changed.
She hurriedly stood up, took the Soul Pearl in her hand, and examined it closely.
Ye Chen noticed the change in the Profound Maiden’s emotions and expressions, growing even more curious.
The Profound Maiden looked tense, mixed with excitent, and said, "Are you sure you obtained this after killing a monster?"
Ye Chen nodded.
"You killed it yourself, without any help from a monster?"
"Of course." Faced with the Profound Maiden’s series of questions, Ye Chen grew even more curious.
The Profound Maiden took a sharp breath, her eyes filled with disbelief.
Her gaze at Ye Chen was peculiar, as if she were looking at a demon.
"What’s wrong?"
"What was the monster like? What Race was it? Did it have an Awakened Talent?" The Profound Maiden asked several more questions in succession.
Ye Chen recalled for a mont and said, "I think it was from the Charm race, and it had an Awakened Talent."
"So, it really is!"
The Profound Maiden was stunned for a while and then uttered these four words.
"Can you tell what this thing is used for? Judging by your expression, it seems very useful to you."
The Profound Maiden sat on a rocking chair and said, "I’ll tell you the reason, but can you give this Soul Pearl?"
"Sure, I can!"
After all, this thing was of no use to Ye Chen, so giving it to the Profound Maiden was no big deal.
The Profound Maiden’s expression lit up with a smile and she said thank you, then added, "Actually, this Soul Pearl is very useful to us demons. Soul Pearls can only be produced by monsters at LV30 or higher with an Awakened Talent, and they must be killed by us demons. Earlier, when Lissando produced this Soul Pearl, I was a bit puzzled. At that ti, I thought maybe I had also acted to make this Soul Pearl appear, but I hadn’t expected that you would kill a monster and actually make one appear. It’s truly incredible."
The Profound Maiden was quite surprised, but there was a lot of excitent in her tone.
"So, what’s its use?"
"Don’t rush, let explain slowly. As you know, we demons rely on absorbing human vitality to level up, but Talents differ, and Race Tiers are different as well. Race inherently limits the developnt of our Talents. As you might know, earlier when battling Lissando, Lissando used Skills like Spirit Communication Tier One and Spirit Communication Tier Two!"
Ye Chen nodded. The first ti he encountered Kalei Ni, and then Lissando, Gust, including the Profound Maiden, they all unleashed such moves.
The Profound Maiden continued, "This is the difference between races. For example, a Tier Four race doesn’t have such Skills. Tier One and Tier Two like these Skills are those naturally endowed by race, and only races Tier Three or above can acquire them. For monsters at the Tier Three race, as they level up, they can attain up to Tier Seven at most.
But it’s different beyond that. Tier Two races might be able to attain up to Tier Ten, and Tier One races will be higher. This is all because of Soul Power, and the only way to increase Soul Power is to absorb Soul Pearls. Only with high Soul Power can one acquire higher Tier Skills and enhance their Talents."
After the Profound Maiden finished speaking, Ye Chen finally understood.
However, he was just a Pet Tar, and the things ant for monsters were bewildering him.
"These Soul Pearls are indeed not bad for you demons, but you don’t have to be this excited, do you?"
"What do you know? How can I not be excited! It’s not easy to produce these Soul Pearls. Earlier when Lissando produced one, I thought it was just my luck. Who would’ve thought it was all thanks to you! The chance of a Soul Pearl appearing is very low. If it were guaranteed to appear, we demons wouldn’t need you to act; we’d solve it ourselves." The Profound Maiden said with a giggle, her heart was practically blooming with joy.
Holding the Soul Pearl, the Profound Maiden felt extrely content.
"With this Soul Pearl, I can further enhance my Talent. Ye Chen, you’re truly my lucky star!"
With that, the Profound Maiden unexpectedly gave Ye Chen a kiss on the cheek.
Ye Chen felt speechless and a little disappointed. He initially thought the Soul Pearl was so great treasure, but it turned out it was a treasure for demons and of no use to him at all.
"Ye Chen, you will surely encounter more Advanced monsters in the future. When that ti cos, can you give all the Soul Pearls you acquire?"
The Profound Maiden looked at Ye Chen, blinking her eyes.
"What’s in it for ?"
"I, I, I..." The Profound Maiden mumbled for a while but didn’t co up with anything substantial.
Ye Chen laughed, "Fine, I’ll give them all to you. After all, you’re the first demon friend I know, and these Soul Pearls aren’t much use to . So, I’ll just give them to you."
Originally, Ye Chen thought about having the Profound Maiden as his subordinate, but then realized it wasn’t necessary. Making such a request would just create gaps in their rapport.
It was better to just give them to the Profound Maiden.
"Fine, Ye Chen, you’re really great. In the future, if you need my help, just let know! Oh, here’s my contact information. If anything cos up, just call , and later, I’ll send you information about the monster races and so other details!"
With that, the Profound Maiden shared her contact information with Ye Chen.
Surprisingly, the Profound Maiden was quite fashionable.
After Ye Chen noted it down, he said, "I only have one request, and that’s hoping you can protect my companions in Qing County."
"No problem, I promise to complete the task!" The Profound Maiden said with great excitent.
"By the way, those people, what are your plans and purpose for keeping them around?"
Ye Chen was naturally referring to those people under the Mountain Carver’s command.
The Profound Maiden laughed, "They were useful before, but now they’re not needed anymore."
"Hmm?"
The Profound Maiden laughed, "I originally planned to train them to help hunt down kindred with Awakened Talent, so I might have a chance to obtain Soul Pearls to enhance my strength. But now that you’re here, there’s no need for those people, is there?"
