Chapter 53 - Did I triggered another flag?

The third floor was deserted, without a single visitor present. The moment he entered the third floor, Jean instantly felt a incomparably strong aura pave over. With a glance, he discovered that the huge third floor was filled with all sorts of exquisite jade boxes and wooden boxes.

At the same time, gusts of fluctuating profound energy also spread over. Jean quickly noticed that the room was filled with invisible formations, some of which were defensive formations, while others were attack formations. Once anything out of the ordinary occurred, these formations would instantly start up.

Maid: Elder Qiao, this guest would like 3 Blood Red Crystals, a Scarlet Lava Lotus and a Devil's Flaming Blood Crystal.

The old man that was sitting a bit far away looked at Jean with a slight surprise and got around the floor to pick the items.

Elder Qiao: Well well well, are you perhaps trying to make a Earth Profound Nirvana Pellet?

Jean: You guessed it right.

The Elder didn't pressed further and told him.

Elder Qiao: 120 Purple Profound Coins for the Blood Red Crystals, 100 Purple Profound Coins for the Scarlet Lava Lotus and 600 Purple Profound Coins for the Devil's Flaming Blood Crystal.

Jean immediately took out his Profound Currency Card, and after deducting 820 Purple Profound Coins, he stored all the items he bought, he already had the other materials stolen from the Xiao Sect so he is alright now.

With his objective achieved, Jean left with the guidance of the maid. Right as he arrived at the end of the stairs, another maid with a woman clad in white walked over.

This was a woman masked with an ice silk gauze veil; her body was covered with a pristine snowy attire, and a thin ice veil masked her appearance, only revealing a pair of ice-cold beautiful eyes.

Jean: 'What the hell? Did she come from the snowy Arabia?'

That thought distracted him from seeing the girl's figure, that would surely hypnotize him if he glanced at them.

Jean just climbed down from the stairs, forgetting about her.

Jasmine: This tiny Blue Wind Empire, is indeed a crouching tiger and hidden dragon.

Jean: What the heck is that supposed to mean?

Jasmine: Peak of the 10th Sky Profound Realm… a half-step from the Emperor Profound Realm! Strong enough to be considered one of the top ten practitioners in Blue Wind Empire!

Jean's legs went soft on the spot and almost face-planted onto the stairs, but something stopped him, it was his instinct that told him that something wasn't right… It was the same sensation he got when he thought that Jasmine couldn't possibly be a Profound God… Did I trigger another flag? Absolutely yes.

What was the flag? She will come to him when she will notice that he has the Devil's Flaming Blood Crystal. Why? Because he noticed that she was poisoned with an extreme yin-type poison, and the Devil's Flaming Blood Crystal is an extreme yang-type material.

Meanwhile, the white-clothed woman arrived in front of the old man with the maid's guidance. The maid respectfully said.

Maid: Elder Qiao, this esteemed customer would like a Devil's Flaming Blood Crystal.

Elder Qiao: The only Devil's Flaming Blood Crystal we had in stock was just purchased by that young man.

I fuċkɨnġ told you, Myself! Run like the bitch you are!

When Jean heard the man talking about him to the woman, he was already out from the Black Moon Merchant Guild, he hastened his steps, and when he was some dozen of meters away, his walk turned into a run.

Jasmine: Why are you running?

Jean: I bet that girl will immediately come to seek me…

Just as Jean finished speaking, a gust of cold wind blew past his body. The scene in front of him blurred for a moment as white clothes fluttered, and the snowy-veiled woman appeared in front of him like an illusion.

A pair of beautiful eyes emotionlessly stared at him. Jean's gaze had been attracted to her the moment she appeared, because everything around him, even the sky and the earth, lost its color in comparison.

Jean: 'Shit…' What do you want?

Jean's hands got close to each other and formed the shape of an heart and looked coldly at the girl in front of him.

?: Sell me your Devil's Flaming Blood Crystal. I'll pay double the price.

Jean: You can even forget about it from me, I'm not selling. Besides, the Devil's Flaming Blood Crystal will not dispel the poison you currently have.

?: How do you know I've been infected with poison?

Jean still held his hands in the shape of the heart and said.

Jean: About how, I don't have any obligation to say it, but I know that you were infected from an ice-attributed profound beast since you have a Poison of Origin.

?: …How did you know all this?

The woman released her profound energy, making Jean slowly back away and charge a shot from his hands.

Jean: Last chance, if you try anything strange, I'll shot, and believe me that even if an Emperor Profound Cultivator would be here, they would not come out unscathed.

The woman slowly calmed down, she didn't detected any lie from Jean, and this actually worried her a bit, does he really have something that could hurt someone like her? She doesn't want to find it out at her current conditions.

Jean used this as a card and had in mind another idea, why not getting temporarily the collaboration of someone like her? There were a few people he needed to take care of, and he was sure that he needed someone like her at his side in that moment.

Jean: ...I am Dennell Jean, my identity will be a secret for the moment, but I can say that I am a genius doctor. This Poison of Origin can't be dispelled with a Devil's Flaming Blood Crystal, besides, your profound veins would be injured or permanently damaged because you cultivate a ice-attribute profound art.

After saying that, he separated his hands and confidently walked forward, passing beside her, his current behavior was completely different from that of a minute ago.

Jasmine: How did you know she was infected by a Poison of Origin?

Jean: Regardless of the poison, symptoms will always show on one's expression. If I can't even tell whether she was infected by a poison, or what poison she was infected with, it would be embarrassing to call myself a genius doctor.

Jasmine: Then how did you also know she cultivated ice-attribute profound arts, are you going to say that it's because you are a genius doctor?

Jean: No, that's just stupid, if you would put an hand over a fire and get warm, would you think it's a refrigerator?

Jasmine: …

Jean's steps were stopped from the woman's voice.

?: Wait!

Jean turned around and asked.

Jean: You want me to dispel the poison?

?: ...How did you know?

Jean: Pfft, it's fuċkɨnġ obvious. It will last 10 days and doesn't have any side effect, but you will owe me after that, and I don't mean Profound Coins, I have enough of them for now. 'Besides, when I need more I can just go to steal more… No, it's not stealing, they are lending money to me without knowing it… I am a righteous person.'

?: Then, I'll have to trouble you to dispel the poison in my body for me.

Jean: Not now, meet me at dusk in the Blue Wind Profound palace. I will be at the quarter n. 73 in the Inner Palace, I doubt that someone of your caliber would be caught that easily.

The white-clothed woman didn't speak and faintly glanced over at Jean. She then flew into the sky and her sleeves fluttered as she suddenly disappeared from Jean's line of sight. His shoulders relaxed and turned around, towards the Blue Wind Profound Palace, hastily.

Jean isn't stupid, he was sure that Feng Baiyi, for those who don't remember him, Hybrid or Cuntboy, is searching for him with some other people due to what he did to Murong Yi.

When he has the woman's collaboration, he will confront him and whoever he brings with him, and he is sure it isn't a simple Spirit Profound Cultivator, maybe an high-ranked one, or probably an Earth Profound Cultivator. Either way, since Feng Baiyi is someone of high status, there will be someone strong to protect him.
