After Dying of Anger, I Became the Destiny Villain System

Chapter 170 Ye Duxiu (Ye Xiu) joins

Hearing Qin Shou's words, Ye Xiu laughed, a laugh of exasperation.

"Talk it over?" Ye Xiu sneered, her tone clearly laced with mockery and dissatisfaction. "You attacked me without rhyme or reason, and now you want to solve the problem with a single phrase, 'talk it over'? You're thinking too simply!"

Ye Xiu's gaze was fixed on Shen Gongbao (Ao Yuan) and Qin Shou, her eyes filled with vigilance, ready to retreat at any moment.

"Fairy, it was indeed our fault just now. We are willing to offer some reasonable compensation," Bu Shensuan stepped forward and advised.

"Yes, fellow Daoist, I was indeed overly worried just now and acted too heavily, harming the young lady's appearance. If the young lady doesn't mind, please accept this Beauty Pill," Long Aotian said, taking out an exquisite small bottle. A pure white pill appeared before everyone.

The fragrance of the pill wafted out, and the pill also had six cloud-like pill patterns, indicating it was a top-grade pill.

Seeing Long Aotian take out a top-grade Beauty Pill, Ni Yue's eyes also flashed with a hint of surprise.

Although the Beauty Pill was not a high-level pill, due to its powerful effects, it was always in a state of having price but no market. Once it appeared, it would attract countless female cultivators to scramble for it.

For female cultivators who cherished their appearance, this pill was indeed a difficult compensation to refuse.

Ye Xiu remained unmoved. A mere Beauty Pill? As a dignified quasi-Emperor grade alchemist, she could naturally refine it, and of top quality.

The main reason she chose to stay and waste words with these people was to see their purpose for being here.

A group of Path Severing cultivators appearing here clearly indicated that this place was not simple.

If she wasn't mistaken, these people must know that there was some kind of opportunity here.

"To be honest, fellow Daoist, we came here this time for a ruin in this area. If you are interested, why not explore it with us?" Qin Shou got straight to the point, directly inviting the other party.

Seeing Qin Shou take the initiative to invite, the alchemist on the side also quickly echoed, "Fairy, if you agree to join us, then we will be on the same side, but if you don't..." He didn't finish his sentence, but the threat within was self-evident.

At this moment, Qu You'er also stepped forward, looking at the other party with anticipation, and said in a sweet voice, "Sister, please join us!"

"Heh!" Ye Xiu chuckled, her expression cold, with a hint of mockery, and said, "You all truly have some nerve! If this Saintess doesn't join you, are you going to kill this Saintess on the spot?"

Hearing the words "Saintess," everyone present felt a shock in their hearts.

One must know that in the Upper Realm, those who could be called Saintess were only the successors of Saint-level forces.

And this mysterious woman in front of them actually called herself a Saintess, which made everyone feel a sense of apprehension.

After all, the forces behind someone who could become a Saintess must be incredibly powerful.

At this moment, everyone was in a dilemma.

If they were to really make a move on her, it would be very difficult to kill her.

If this matter was investigated by the force behind her, the consequences would be unimaginable.

For a time, the atmosphere became extremely subtle, and everyone's eyes were focused on Qin Shou, waiting for him to make the final decision.

They couldn't kill her, they couldn't harm her, they could only redistribute her share of the harvest, and this resource, of course, would be borne by Qin Shou, the organizer of the team.

"Alas!" Feeling everyone's gaze, Qin Shou sighed deeply, his heart filled with helplessness and bitterness.

"Fellow Daoist, this ruin is incredibly mysterious, and the opportunities within are immeasurable. If you are willing to join us, I will grant you a ten percent share of the harvest, how about it?" Qin Shou said with a pained heart, stating the profit distribution plan.

The other party was a Saintess of a sect, with high status and powerful strength. If they used forceful means against her, it would not only cause a huge stir but also bring endless trouble to themselves.

To ensure the secrecy of the operation, Qin Shou had no choice but to back down and try to win over the other party by giving up a portion of the profits.

Just like that, his original share was reduced by another ten percent.

"Okay!" Ye Xiu didn't hesitate and directly agreed.

Hearing the other party agree, everyone also stopped their attacking postures, and Ni Yue also withdrew her formation plate.

Qu You'er ran over with a face full of admiration, her eyes sparkling with excitement: "Sister, my name is Qu You'er, what's your name, Sister?" She blinked her bright big eyes, looking expectantly at this mysterious and powerful woman in front of her.

Ye Xiu pondered for a moment, a cunning thought arose in her heart, and then she slowly said, "Ye Duxiu!"

"Ye Duxiu!" Everyone exclaimed in unison, their faces showing surprised expressions.

They quickly searched their memories for information about this name, but found nothing.

This name was completely unfamiliar to them, and they seemed to have never heard of it.

However, no one suspected anything.

The Eastern Wasteland was vast and boundless, with countless unknown forces and figures. If Ye Duxiu came from the outer regions, it was normal for them not to know her lineage.

After all, obtaining information also required money, and for ordinary cultivators like them, understanding external forces didn't have much use.

Anyway, they wouldn't fight those they couldn't defeat, wouldn't get involved in crowded places, and wouldn't go to dangerous places, so it was basically difficult to encounter those people.

Ye Xiu nodded slightly, then walked with light steps to Shen Gongbao (Ao Yuan), extended her crystal-clear slender hands, and said coldly, "Give it to me!"

"Give you what?" Ao Yuan's face showed a blank and innocent expression, as if he really didn't know what Ye Xiu wanted.

"The Essence of Void you just snatched!" Ye Xiu's eyebrows furrowed, and she reminded him with a hint of annoyance in her tone.

For some reason, Ye Xiu always felt a strange discomfort towards this handsome and enchanting man in front of her.

"Oh! So you're talking about the Essence of Void, I thought it was something big! Since you want it, I'll give it to you." Ao Yuan pretended to suddenly understand, then with a gentle wave of his right hand, a mass of emerald green crystalline liquid appeared before everyone without any warning.

This mass of crystalline liquid emitted a rich energy fluctuation, which made people marvel.

Just by sensing it, they could feel the powerful energy contained within.

"Hmph!" Ye Xiu snorted coldly and coldly accepted the mass of Essence of Void that had been tampered with.

After Ye Xiu regained the Essence of Void, Qin Shou immediately announced their departure.

Searching for the ruin was of utmost importance.

With the addition of Ye Duxiu (Ye Xiu), the original nine-person team instantly became a ten-person team.

Everyone continued on the path to the secret realm.

Soon, Qin Shou excitedly shouted, "We're here!"

"Secret realm? No, it's all hills here, where's the secret realm, Qin Shou, are you mistaken?" Yi Er asked doubtfully.

"No mistake, the lost secret realm that the ancestor spoke of is here." Qin Shou said with a serious expression.

"But there's nothing here!" Bu Shensuan calculated for a long time but couldn't see anything different about this place.

"The map is clearly marked, it's right here. Everyone look carefully, after all, ten thousand years have passed, and the external appearance of the ruin may have changed." Qin Shou explained seriously.

Ten thousand years had passed, and things had changed. It was normal for the specific location to shift, but the general direction was absolutely correct.

According to the records of Qin family's ancestor, the protective formation of that ruin was very strong, and there were also restrictions on the formation, making it very difficult to discover.

The Qin family's ancestor also accidentally stumbled upon the formation and thus discovered the ruin.

However, since the Void Secret Realm was about to close at that time, the Qin family's ancestor had no time to study the formation, so he had to record the specific location of the secret realm and leave helplessly.
