Chapter 128

The sudden change at the entrance of Realm No. 79 drove all the professionals crazy.

Human greed is endless; the moment that scepter appeared, their reason was instantly thrown to the back of their minds.

After all, that scepter could very well be a legendary divine artifact capable of destroying heaven and earth!

Wealth is sought in danger; if one could seize that scepter, why worry about not achieving great things?

Watching the many professionals rushing into Realm No. 79 like madmen, Ye Lin narrowed his eyes slightly.

He vaguely felt that this was very likely a trap.

After all, if there really were a divine artifact in this realm, how would it ever be their turn, these small fries? Real powerhouses would have arrived long ago.

Just as Ye Lin was hesitating whether to go in or not, a very pleasant voice rang out.

"Brother, you also noticed that something is wrong with this realm?"

A person with a crew cut appeared beside Ye Lin.

Even with a crew cut, it was hard to hide the person's delicate features and pretty face.

Ye Lin glanced at the person, frowned slightly, and took half a step back.

"Why are you cross-dressing as a man?"

"How did you know I was cross-dressing?" Xie Xiaoxiao's pupils shrank upon hearing this.

She had clearly changed into boys' clothes, wore no makeup, and even specially shaved off her long hair. She had checked herself in the mirror several times, confirming that she was completely a tomboy before leaving the house. Yet, the first person she met after leaving was able to recognize that she was a woman cross-dressing as a man?

"First, unless a guy has chapped lips, he wouldn't wear such thick lip balm."

Ye Lin pointed at Xie Xiaoxiao's red, moist lips that looked like they had been smeared with lard.

"Second, you knew to change into men's clothes and shave your hair, but you didn't know how to hide such a big pair of 'thunder'? If you're not a woman cross-dressing, then you're a freak."

Ye Lin pointed at Xie Xiaoxiao's chest again.

Xie Xiaoxiao's cheeks flushed; she realized how clumsy her disguise was. No wonder everyone's eyes on her along the way were a bit strange.

Damn it! She had long been accustomed to the existence of these things, so how could she have remembered to hide them?

Ye Lin shook his head helplessly and turned to leave. He vaguely felt that this woman's brain seemed to be even less useful than Student Zhuge Ni's.

He didn't want to provoke another brain-dead woman.

"Wait! Don't go yet!"

Seeing Ye Lin about to leave, Xie Xiaoxiao hurriedly blocked his path.

"I think you're quite smart. How about this, let's team up and enter this Realm No. 79?"

"If I'm not mistaken, there must be members of the Demon Clan in this realm! Only the Demon Clan would use such techniques to lure humans inside; ordinary monsters don't have this kind of intelligence," Xie Xiaoxiao said very seriously.

"The Demon Clan?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Lin's footsteps paused slightly. He remembered the Demon Clan man he had encountered in the Zhuangyuan Realm, Gallagher.

The people of the Demon Clan were indeed powerful. If he could use Endless Devour to swallow a few of them...

Ye Lin was tempted and immediately decided to enter Realm No. 79.

However, he didn't want to team up with a woman who cross-dressed but didn't know how to hide her chest. Ye Lin kept a cold face and wanted to leave.

At this moment, Xie Xiaoxiao spoke again.

"I can give you benefits!"

"Sorry, the education I received since childhood doesn't support me doing such things. You've got the wrong person!" Ye Lin didn't stop.

"An epic-grade piece of equipment."

The moment Xie Xiaoxiao's voice rang out, Ye Lin instantly stopped.

He turned his head with a cold face, then suddenly broke into a smile.

"You really have a good eye for people!"

He scoffed at women with no brains, but he flocked to rich women with no brains.

Lu Xun once said that even if you hate someone, when they pay you, the corners of your mouth will still rise involuntarily.

"What should I call you? By the way, can I have that epic-grade equipment now?" Ye Lin asked in succession.

"You can just call me Xiaoxiao," Xie Xiaoxiao said. "As for the epic-grade equipment, what type do you want? A ring? A necklace? Or a sword?"

"Hiss!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Lin instantly gasped.

She could even choose the type? This woman was a real rich lady! When did Qingcheng get such a rich lady? Why hadn't he heard Guo Qin mention it? Didn't Guo Qin say he knew all the rich ladies in Qingcheng like the back of his hand?

You have to know, the only epic-grade equipment Ye Lin had was the Red Flame Staff, and that was dug out from the belly of a Treasure Golden Toad.

Although epic-grade equipment costs tens of millions, it is often priceless and rarely traded for money.

Otherwise, Ye Lin would have long ago asked his father to use his "money power" to help him replace all his equipment with epic-grade ones.

"I'm an Ice-type Mage. You can give me whatever you think is suitable; I'm not picky," Ye Lin said with a grin, rubbing his hands.

"An Ice-type Mage? That's perfect, I actually have one that suits you."

Xie Xiaoxiao smiled slightly, then swiped the ring on her hand, and a box appeared in her palm. The surface of the box was inlaid with silver patterns, revealing a mysterious and noble aura.

This move made Ye Lin narrow his eyes. Equipment with storage functions? This girl was indeed rich.

Xie Xiaoxiao opened the box, revealing the item inside. It was a crystal-clear bracelet, inlaid with one blue gem after another, like blue ice that never melts for ten thousand years, emitting a faint chill.

"This is the Heart of Ice Crystal, an epic-grade bracelet." Xie Xiaoxiao handed the Heart of Ice Crystal to Ye Lin.

Ye Lin took the box and felt a cool aura coming through his palm, as if ice and snow were dancing at his fingertips.

【Heart of Ice Crystal】

【Grade: Epic】

【Attribute: Spirit Power Amplification 60%】 (Refinable)

【Skill: Absolute Zero】

【Absolute Zero: The wearer expands a domain that approaches absolute zero, centered on themselves. Within this domain, the power of Ice-type skills is increased by 100%.】

"It's actually a domain skill?"

After reading the description of the Heart of Ice Crystal, Ye Lin couldn't help but click his tongue. Domain-type skills are extremely rare.

After all, for a mage, the difference in the battlefield has a huge impact on their combat power.

For example, if two mages of equal strength, one Fire-type and one Ice-type, were to fight in a volcano, the Fire-type mage would definitely win.

But with a domain skill, the impact of the battlefield on the mage can be minimized.

This Heart of Ice Crystal, even among epic-grade equipment, is considered an outstanding piece.

Such equipment, and the Xie Xiaoxiao before him just gave it away like that? Then what kind of heaven-defying things must she have on her?

Ye Lin narrowed his eyes slightly, and a murderous intent flashed across his eyes.

He had already developed the intention to kill and loot.

Just as Ye Lin was about to make a move, he suddenly thought of something, and his footsteps paused.

Extremely wealthy, possessing numerous resources, having a very broad perspective, yet lacking common sense, and even appearing a bit silly—this was clearly a second-generation heir who had lived behind high walls for a long time.

This is like a rich young master not knowing how much a starch sausage costs.

Such a person could not possibly exist in a small county like Qingcheng.

Combined with the person behind the scenes at Student Zhuge Qianxing's funeral who could make the entire Qingcheng Investigation Bureau afraid to show up.

Could this woman in front of him be related to that mysterious big shot?

A cold sweat broke out on Ye Lin's back, and he was startled by his own guess.

"Your mother..."

"What's wrong?" Xie Xiaoxiao turned her head, somewhat confused.

"Nothing, I wish your mother happiness and health."
