Chapter 352

"You agreed?" Xia Qinglan's eyes were full of surprise.

"I think any hot-blooded man would definitely agree!"

Ye Lin looked righteous. He swore to the heavens that agreeing was absolutely for the sake of the human predecessors, and it had nothing to do with the Endless Canglan Ring!

"The other half of the flagpole is in Uncle Jiang's hands. I'll take you to find him! As for the remaining flag surface... that will have to depend on you. The flag surface is in the hands of those human skins."

Xia Qinglan took Ye Lin out the door to find the Uncle Jiang she mentioned.

Along the way, Ye Lin also learned that Xia Qinglan was actually a job-changer, but her level was a pitiful level 23.

After all, in a place like the Millennium City where skin corpses were everywhere, there weren't many places for her to improve her strength, and even her job-change ceremony was held in secret.

After passing through several alleys, Xia Qinglan brought Ye Lin to a half-hidden iron door, from which a glimmer of light shone.

Xia Qinglan stepped forward and knocked on the door lightly.

"Uncle Jiang, it's me, Qinglan. I've brought a friend over."

The door creaked open, and a middle-aged man in his fifties, dressed simply, appeared behind the door. The light shone on his rugged face, revealing a touch of perseverance.

Seeing Ye Lin, a flash of scrutiny crossed Uncle Jiang's eyes, and then he nodded toward Xia Qinglan.

"Child, come in and talk."

After welcoming Xia Qinglan and Ye Lin inside, Uncle Jiang closed the iron door and locked it behind him.

"Who is he?"

Uncle Jiang pointed at Ye Lin and asked.

"He is an outsider named Xie Hong. His strength is very strong; I saw him kill a human skin with my own eyes! Uncle Jiang, perhaps this time, we can really restore the glory of the Human Emperor Flag and let the predecessors in this Millennium City be liberated!" Xia Qinglan explained.

Upon hearing this, Uncle Jiang did not show any joy. He just frowned, looked Ye Lin up and down, and his eyes were full of suspicion.

"Those human skins were all human predecessors with powerful combat strength while alive. The skin corpses they turned into are at least level 50 at their weakest. So young? Able to kill a human skin?"

Seeing that Uncle Jiang didn't believe him, Ye Lin could only reveal his aura.

"I am not talented, but I am already level 73, a Forbidden Spellcaster."

The terrifying aura gave both Uncle Jiang and Xia Qinglan a strong sense of oppression.

"Level 73 at such a young age? And a Forbidden Spellcaster?" Uncle Jiang was overjoyed. "Good, good, good! It seems that our human compatriots outside have developed to a level we cannot understand!"

Xia Qinglan was also full of yearning when she heard this. What was the world outside like?

"I know why you came. The other half of the flagpole is hidden by me. You two should rest well here for the night and get your spirits up. I will go and retrieve the flagpole!"

Uncle Jiang was also an impatient person. After confirming that Ye Lin really had that strength, he arranged a room for Ye Lin and Xia Qinglan and immediately rushed out the door to retrieve the remaining half of the flagpole.

Ye Lin and Xia Qinglan couldn't stop him, so they could only stay here and rest obediently. The awkward thing was that Uncle Jiang only arranged one bedroom for the two of them, but fortunately, there were two beds.

The two lay on their respective beds, and the atmosphere was a little awkward for a moment.

"Xie Hong." Xia Qinglan spoke up to break the silence. "What is the world outside like?"

"Hmm... not great. It's a pretty shitty place, but when you have time, you can go to the pier to get some fries and have a glass of cold beer, which is not bad." Ye Lin said the truth.

"Really? Don't you have to worry about being attacked by demonic creatures?" Xia Qinglan asked.

"No, the city walls block the demonic creatures, and ordinary people can live and work in peace, it's just not that free." Ye Lin replied.

"That's great... if we can succeed, the people in the Millennium City can also live a life like that."

Xia Qinglan smiled, her smile full of longing for future life.

"Do you think we will succeed?"

"We will."

Ye Lin nodded. If nothing else, the Human Emperor Flag is a nine-star divine artifact! Even if it's in a damaged state, what if Qiu Xingyuan can fix it when he takes it back?

What's more, the Skin Corpse King's corpse was his goal for this trip anyway.

Getting the Skin Corpse King's corpse, and then getting a free Human Emperor Flag and a Endless Canglan Ring, this deal was a huge profit no matter how you calculated it. This was also the reason why Ye Lin was willing to take the risk; otherwise, he would have run away long ago. He was a person who wouldn't get up early without profit.

Just as Ye Lin was curious about what abilities the Human Emperor Flag would have, he suddenly felt a heat beside him, and a warm, soft body lay down next to him.

"I know, asking you to risk your life to deal with those skin corpses for the people of the Millennium City is a very excessive request, but apart from the Endless Canglan Ring, I really have nothing else to give you... If... if you need it... I can give myself to you... I am very clean..."

By the time she finished speaking, Xia Qinglan's voice was as soft as a mosquito's, but she still summoned the courage to start unbuttoning her clothes.

She had seen with her own eyes the scene of her relatives being gnawed away bit by bit by skin corpses. Kind people who have been rained on want to hold an umbrella for others. She really didn't want to see this scene happen again to other people in the Millennium City.

Ye Lin reached out and buttoned up the clothes Xia Qinglan had unbuttoned.

"You are a person, not an object. There is no need to describe yourself as clean or not. For the reward for my help, a Endless Canglan Ring is enough." Ye Lin showed a sunny smile.

However, his explanation didn't sound like that to Xia Qinglan's ears. She felt a bit aggrieved, bit her lip, and looked up to ask.

"Xie Hong, do you... think I'm ugly?"

"Of course not, I just don't like taking advantage of people in distress." Ye Lin explained.

In all fairness, Xia Qinglan definitely didn't fit the word ugly. Her fresh and beautiful face could be called a girl next door, and her pool-like eyes added a lot to her face.

It's just that Ye Lin really had no interest in taking advantage of people in distress. He usually lied to people to improve his strength or obtain information. As for tricking people into bed, Ye Lin didn't bother to do that.

To put it bluntly, with his current status as a level 73 Forbidden Spellcaster, as long as he said he wanted a woman, the women willing to lie in his bed would be enough to line up from Kyoto to Qingcheng.

"Really?" Xia Qinglan returned to her bed, half-believing. Thinking of her bold behavior just now, her ears felt a little hot.

"Of course it's true. If I lie to you, may I, Xie Hong, not be able to shit for a month. Go to sleep." Ye Lin swore.

"Alright... then... good night, Xie Hong." Xia Qinglan quickly covered herself with the quilt.

The night color spread across the sky like ink, adding a touch of softness and mystery to the quiet night.

Just after Ye Lin and Xia Qinglan both fell into a deep sleep, a pale human skin, like flowing liquid, quietly drilled in from under the door crack...
