Chapter 441: "Male Beauty? Old Acquaintance?"
In an instant, a surge of Yuan energy had exploded out of Ling Yue's body, converting into a series of cold gleaming daggers above the two attackers coming her way.
When did those daggers appear above our heads, and why did we not notice it until now?
Wait... this kid is a Dan realm master!

Holy momma, what is a Dan realm master doing in the Novice area?
Within this Underground City #9, low-level martialist and alchemists are not permitted to enter the higher level areas. Though it's not forbidden for the opposite to occur, it's almost never heard of to find a stronger individual returning to this Novice area after leaving.
"Big Brother, no wait, its great Boss, please let us go. We are but small fries that didn't know who you are, please have mercy for our ignorance." Pleading on the ground, the two men began shedding tears like sobbing idiots.
"Aiya, don't go jumping to conclusions now, it's not like I'm trying to take your lives. A debt is a debt, I only want the payments for the things you used." Blinking her big gorgeous eyes that could project the big money sign, Ling Yue generously pans out her hand like a landlord facing a tenant.
Due to being scared out of their wits, it didn't take long before these two were stripped down to their underpants. As the old saying goes, a comrade in arms will one day betray you, but a comrade in debt will always stand by you. Together in support, they limped away like a duet of crippled poor saps.
Since the first shakedown was such a success, it's only normal that Ling Yue would chase it with a second one and more; however, her odds had greatly diminished afterwards since many bystanders were able to witness her scheme up front. Nevertheless, dumb people will forever be dumb. By the end of the night, another four pair of victims had fallen into her evil clutches, leaving the girl ecstatic over her spoils.
Wow, to think these Celestial martialists would be so wealthy. One night and I already bagged this much. Let's see, eight hundred different types of Dan pills, three Yellow Grade artifacts, three low-level monster cores, five martial tablets of the ninth to eighth grade and over tens of thousands of gold coins!
If this was the old Ye Ling Yue then this would undoubtedly be a huge sum for her, sadly, this was a far cry from being able to afford her the Illumination Dan pills required for this venture.
But a fortune was still a fortune, especially when it came in such a windfall of a fashion. Keeping the artifacts for future use, Ling Yue immediately upgraded the Dan pills using her cauldron and then exchanged the rest away to the roulette machines. In the end, she came back out with a hundred Illumination Dan pills.
As much as she would like to continue with this money making scheme of hers, Ling Yue knows its time she made her way back out to the entrance. Jin Wu Monster should be waiting already, yet, that was not the case. In fact, the girl had wait nearly fifteen minutes before the familiar figure showed itself.
"Damn it, to think I would end up getting matched with that little death star," murmuring to himself, Jin Wu Monster was oblivious to the strange look coming his way.
"Hey Old Monster, did you get hit with a nail or something? Why do you look like such a mess?" What she's referring to was the man's horrible state. Tattered all over in his clothes, the poor guy's entire face still ached with pain due to the bruises he suffered.
Unlike Ling Yue who remained in the relative safe zone of the Novice area, Jin Wu Monster had visited the high-level public area. There, reincarnation masters were aplenty like weeds in the grass field, that's why he was defeated within three blows by his opponent. In the end, not only did this old monster lose the one reincarnation pill that he had in his possession, he also lost one of his sixth grade martial tablets that he's been saving.
"It must be my bad luck tonight, I got careless and underestimated my opponent. Whatever, I will come back tomorrow and get back what I lost. There's no way I will lose to a little rabbit when I'm serious.' With his frustration vented, the old monster then recalled something crucial from his memories: "Oh yes, Chief, guess who I saw inside the high-level area. It was Hong Ming Yue and Luo Song!"
"They too know about this Underground City #9?" Ling Yue was rather taken aback by the new info.
But after some further contemplation, its only seems reasonable. After all, compared to herself, Hong Ming Yu and Luo Song does roam the lands much more often than herself.
Let's take her half-sister's cultivation or example. To be able to advance this quickly at such a young age, it would be impossible by just relying on the resources given to her by the Three Life Valley. That much was obvious,
I say, going to the city for accommodation is a fake, rather its coming here to this Underground City is the real reason. Sneering inwardly, Ling Yue's view on the pair once again downgraded to a new low.
"Chief, I know you take them as an eyesore. Hehe, why don't I help you teach them a lesson?" Crackling a laugh, the old monster had long wanted to beat that stuck up boy since the first time he laid eyes on him.
If not for the matter of seniority and the gourd artifact in the lad's hand, he would've done so long ago. But things are different now, they are in the Underground City!
"But Old Monster, that Luo Song's strength is still very strong," shaking her head, Ling Yue was hesitant to try.
The foundation of Three Life Valley was very profound, therefore she doesn't want one of her subordinates to offend such a power for her sake.
"Oh Chief, don't you worry about me. I'm not that crazy to personally make a move. In this Underground City #9, there's plenty of people who aren't afraid of the boy's background." Bellowing out a laugh, this old monster then turns to his own tattered clothing as a reminder of that figure.
Yes, if it's him then there's no mistaking it. That person would fight it up with anyone no matter their background.
Due to seeing how schemingly evil the old monster was, Ling Yue figured she best not try to persuade him. They will be spending plenty of time in the Northwest anyways, this would be a good opportunity to rectify those two using this chance.

With their plan decided, both of them quickly agreed to return the following night. Shame though, if only Ling Yue had stuck around a bit longer then she would've met that dazzling red figure that came out not longer after herself.
Though it wouldn't be long before dawn, it was still pitch black right now. Even so, the attraction created by this person could not be ignored, thus drawing in the attention of all wherever he walked. Yet, there was one blemish and that was his eyes. From what used to be a frivolous look that could melt the hardest of souls, there's only a sense of distress and mourning.
"Damn you Wu Chong, just wait until I search through your eighteen cities. You won't escape from me after I figure out your whereabouts!" Wrinkling his brow, the man angrily vows up into the sky.
