"What?!"
Upon seeing the contents of the dialogue box, Shuxin’s face naturally showed a shocked expression.
"He... opened the Ghost Clan passage?"
Shuxin naturally found it hard to believe, thinking there was a lot of exaggeration in this statent. If the Ghost Clan passage were so easy to open, would the system still reward her with a piece of platinum equipnt?
She instinctively opened the task interface and pulled out this mission that had been shelved for more than a month.
"Ding! Congratulations to the player Shuxin for obtaining a hidden mission: Open the Ghost Clan passage. Ti limit: three months; task completion reward: one random piece of platinum equipnt, 50000 Ghost Clan reputation; task failure penalty: level -10, Ghost Clan Holy King -10000."
Never mind the platinum equipnt, even the 50,000 points of Ghost Clan reputation indicated the difficulty of this task; how could it be so easily completed?
Besides, if the Ghost Clan passage could be opened so easily, why would the Ghost Clan have been sealed for tens of thousands of years?
"Zhang ng, such jokes are not to be made loosely. You can’t afford the consequences of deceiving !"
Han Siying replied coldly, her face icy.
"Hahaha, you are really sothing. Are you not the one who was desperate to open the Ghost Clan passage at all costs, even if it ant dying? But now that it’s open, you don’t believe it!"
"Are you saying this Ghost Clan passage is truly opened?"
In Shuxin’s previously cold tone, there was a slight emotional fluctuation, "If you dare deceive , you know what will happen!"
"How could I not know? Because of , I’ve bent quite a few compasses and been plagued by nightmares every day in this lifeti, I need no compass any longer!"
At the ntion of the compass, Crane That Doesn’t Dance got furious. If it weren’t for this, he would’ve dealt with this woman long ago instead of having to put up with her!
No sense of martial ethics, using hidden weapons to hurt people!
Damn!
This cursed compass!
"Good that you know."
Shuxin was very satisfied with Zhang ng’s behavior, with a compass in hand, there was no fear!
"Let’s not talk about annoying things. I’m not going to be courteous to you. Tell , if I open the Ghost Clan passage, what will you give as a reward?"
Crane That Doesn’t Dance brought the topic back to the Ghost Clan passage and put the rewards on the table.
"You tell ."
Upon hearing Zhang ng repeatedly ntion the Ghost Clan passage, Shuxin naturally sensed sothing was off. If the Ghost Clan passage truly appeared, it would save her the effort of completing the task, aning she could get a platinum piece of equipnt for free!
50,000 points of Ghost Clan reputation could significantly elevate her status within the Ghost Clan!
Paying so price in exchange for such rewards was acceptable; it was worth it!
"I want you to spend a night with ."
"Get lost!"
"Hey, I knew it. You, the ice beauty, wouldn’t give in easily. But think about it, this is a rare opportunity. To complete the task, you need my help. There’s give and take. I help you, and you should help too. I lack nothing but a woman. Spend a night with ; you lose nothing. What do you think?"
Crane That Doesn’t Dance laughed slyly. Knowing about Han Siying’s task gave him confidence to control her, not believing she’d lower her proud head!
"You! Arrogant scoundrel! Despicable!"
Shuxin was trembling with anger, her teeth gritted so hard they made a cracking sound. Then, as if she thought of sothing, her anger suddenly subsided, and she spoke in a calm tone, "Aren’t you just after my body? It doesn’t matter if a scumbag stabs once, but in return, I will stab back. We’ll see if your tool is harder than my compass!"
What?
Mutual stabbing?
How could that be acceptable?!
Upon hearing Han Siying’s words, Crane That Doesn’t Dance’s hand visibly shook, his face turned very unpleasant. Now he understood what it ant to say a woman’s heart is the most venomous. This woman was immune to bribes!
"Ahem, Siying, I was just joking, don’t take it seriously. This Ghost Clan passage took a lot of effort to open. If you expect to reap what you did not sow, that’s impossible. You are not related to ; if there are no benefits, I won’t help you."
This passage was his great discovery, no way would he let this woman benefit cheaply. If Han didn’t give in like a stingy iron rooster, this passage could rot in his belly, and he wouldn’t tell!
Unless no one leaked this secret; too many people knowing would make it worthless...
"You tell !"
Shuxin was too lazy to argue and threw the ball back.
"1 million, this coordinate is worth this price! Even if I don’t explain, you know whether it’s worth it or not!"
Crane That Doesn’t Dance made a sky-high demand, wanting to show her how foolish it was not to spend a night with him!
"Why don’t you die as well? Just a coordinate, and you dare ask for a million? Get lost and don’t bother !"
Shuxin almost laughed in anger. Sure, she needed the coordinates but wasn’t stupid enough to buy one for 1 million. Was she sick or what?
Even if her brain was flooded, she’d never buy it!
"Hey, don’t rush to refuse. This isn’t a one-off sale. Where there’s an offer, there’s a counteroffer. You won’t know unless you try."
"Counteroffer? What price could this broken coordinate have? To you, it might be a treasure, but I’ll give you at most 10,000 gold coins, nothing more!"
Shuxin remarked casually, "Sell to whoever you want, just don’t annoy !"
"Deal!"
To her surprise, Crane That Doesn’t Dance agreed on the spot and sold the coordinates at a bargain. He chuckled and sent ssages, "These coordinates are only useful to you; who else would I sell them to? Besides, the passage will be revealed eventually, so why not exchange so money now—10,000 gold coins isn’t few!"
"You..."
Shuxin was furious but held back from swearing, suppressing her inner rage. After sending the 10,000 gold coins, she said, "The money has been sent, so don’t let down. Otherwise, I won’t let you off and you’ll taste the pain of a myriad of stabs!"
"Myriad of stabs? Wow, that’s a fresh term!"
Crane That Doesn’t Dance coldly laughed after receiving the gold coins and continued ssaging, "Listen carefully; the Ghost Clan passage coordinates are at 5445:541, leading to Ice Hell! To tell you the truth, even if you offered 100 gold coins, I would sell them. I want you to understand that this is all you’re worth!"
"..."
Shuxin said no more and directly blacklisted him again. When she’d remove him from the blacklist would depend on her mood.
Then, she recalled the Bone-eating Beast back to the pet space and headed briskly toward the coordinates. She didn’t doubt their authenticity; after all, Zhang ng took the money, which proved that he wasn’t lying!
...
The scene shifts to Su Ran.
At this mont, Su Ran was walking and laughing with Creamy Scholar, having reached the outskirts of the Ancient Wasteland.
Creamy Scholar deliberately brought up topics that interested Su Ran, without ntioning matters of affection, avoiding any awkwardness, which was exactly what she hoped for.
"Overturning Water, be honest with . Has your illness improved to this extent because of the Dream Seeking Pill?"
"Sister Scholar, what do you think?"
Su Ran knew that such a matter couldn’t be hidden. An illness inconceivable to be cured in reality had improved to this extent, inexplicable by the knowledge learned in reality, leaving no choice but to admit the existence of the Dream Seeking Pill.
"How would I know if you don’t tell ? Spit it out, stop keeping in suspense!"
Creamy Scholar nudged Su Ran, reducing his health by 1 point.
"Sister Scholar, you really have strong hands. If you were in a berserker class, wouldn’t I lose half my life from your hit?"
"Little Brother Su, is your skin itching? Want to help you stretch your muscles?"
Creamy Scholar raised her fist and approached Su Ran nacingly.
"Sister Scholar, have you forgotten that I’m all bones, where’s the skin?"
Su Ran quickly distanced himself, fearing non-human abuse.
"Well, quickly tell , is it because of the Dream Seeking Pill?"
"Before..."
Before Su Ran could finish, a friend ssage notification sounded; it was from Big Brother Nan Qiang. Upon seeing the ssage’s content, his expression changed instantly, "Bad news, the Ghost Clan passage has been opened!"
