Chapter 104: Mysterious Jade Slit Ring

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“I knew it, it’s because of this thing.” Red Coral had an enlightened expression before she looked like she did not know whether she wanted to cry or laugh.

She obtained the item three days ago. During the stealing tribute quest she had meticulously planned, her sisters from Black Rose stole an important tribute from Purple Sun Sect during the chaos. She had also taken the jade slit ring from a Blessed Realm player who appeared to have some status in the sect.

At that time, she had only cast a quick glance at the item before she tossed it into her Universe Bag. Then, when she returned to the city, she encountered Purple Sun Sect’s vicious attacks.

The people from Purple Sun Sect seemed to know her general location, and they mobilized a large number of people to investigate the government-made roads, forests, mountains, and roads, and soon, they knew every time she changed directions.

In the beginning, Red Coral thought that Purple Sun Sect was just angry and embarrassed by their loss and decided to take revenge on Black Rose, but as time passed, she began to feel that something was off.

The other members of Black Rose were not attacked while she was treated like the queen. Wherever she went, she would run into people from Purple Sun Sect. Their hatred had puzzled and perplexed her.

However, she had not linked their actions to the jade slit ring she had nearly forgotten in her Universe Bag!

She believed that Purple Sun Sect had got to know her identity as the strategist for the operation from somewhere, which was why they wanted to take revenge on her at all costs and kill her...

She avoided them for two days, but in the end, she was still accidentally surrounded by Purple Sun Sect. She fought hard, and a few of her sisters sacrificed themselves during the battle before she managed to break out of the encirclement after sustaining heavy injuries.

She fled all the way to the ancient tomb in Yangzhou.

When she thought about how she was chased for no reason and how her sisters had fearlessly sacrificed themselves for her over the past two days because of the plain jade slit ring, Red Coral felt that what she had been through was not worthwhile. She was also somewhat curious about the secret hidden in the jade slit ring.

When she saw the group led by the man with the fan look regretful, she swiftly spoke up. “Wait!”

“Don’t even dream about it. We have men guarding the entrance of the ancient tomb. It’s impossible for you to stall for time while searching for a chance to flee.” The man with the fan fanned himself while he interrupted Red Coral’s words with a frivolous smile. “But to think that we’ll have to kill a charming and beautiful lady like you... Hah, I actually can’t quite bring myself to do it.”

“If I’m going to die either way, why don’t you tell me what secret is contained in this item and what are its functions before I die? At least let me know the reason for my death.”

Red Coral was not angry. Instead, a hint of cunning flashed briefly in her eyes.

“Let you know the reason for your death? Bah! Do you think I’m an idiot?!” The man fanning himself chuckled. “You want to learn of its secrets from me? Did you actually think that I would tell you?”

When Red Coral heard his words, she knew that there was no way to go about it. She rolled her eyes in an incredibly bitter manner, then turned her face to the side, as if she had been wronged. This small action of hers was incredibly charming and attractive, and she gave off the air of a woman who was highly dependent on a man.

Soon, Red Coral turned her head around. “If I return this item to you, will you let me go?”

The man with the fan was stunned speechless for a moment before his eyes flashed.

“Toss the item here first and let me see whether it’s real or fake.” He did not dare to agree to any of Red Coral’s terms easily.

Even though their main goal was to get the jade slit ring back, but Purple Sun Sect had spent a lot of manpower and money to chase after Red Coral. If they let her go just like that, how was he supposed to gain a footing in the sect in the future?!

Letting Red Coral was clearly not practical.

“Promise me. As long as I give you the real jade slit ring, you’ll let me go, and I’ll immediately return the item to you!”

Red Coral’s round eyes sparkled while she offered her condition.

“Then forget it, if I let you go, it won’t be easy for me to explain things to my superiors.”

The final words of the man with the fan crushed Red Coral’s final hope.

However, it was practically an offense against social norms to harden their hearts and kill a beauty without any power to fight back, even if it was just a game. After all, the level of realism was incredibly great, and her face was incredibly real because of it. Once he thought about it, the man fanning himself looked at the person beside him.

“Phantom Jade, you do it! The others, be on guard. Don’t let her run away because of some stupid trick!”

The group of people instantly went on guard.

Phantom Jade shrugged helplessly and stepped forward.

He was the only person who could handle this matter.

Red Coral might be a girl, but she was not weak. Aside from being in Blessed Realm, she relied on her fierce high-tier blade technique, Dancing Mandarin Ducks. She was only second to her clan master, Black Rose, in her sect, and she was not a person normal Blessed Realm players could handle.

“Lass, it’d be best if you gave up on pointless struggle.”

Phantom Jade stared at Red Coral. With a flick of his wrist, a shiny black whip appeared in his hand. His gaze focused, and his presence turned incredibly astonishing.

Red Coral seemed to have completely given up on fighting back. She bit down on her bottom lip and did not even draw her weapon. She stared at Phantom Jade as he slowly approached her while her chest heaved violently. She gradually closed her eyes.

Phantom Jade gritted his teeth!

If he were to fight against Red Coral, he was the one who would have a harder time.

He had to admit that her figure and face were extremely alluring. She was the type of woman who had the face of an angel and the curves of a demon, and she was even top class and knew how to control her feminine charms. It was very difficult for a man to attack her.

Every single time Phantom Jade took a step, he would stop for a moment.

When he was close to her, he intentionally chose not to look at her expression. He braced himself to walk forward to execute her!

Time seemed to have suddenly slowed down.

Thirty-two feet, twenty-six feet, sixteen feet, thirteen feet, eleven feet...

The air also seemed to have been frozen by the stagnant atmosphere. It was so quiet that it felt like a dream, and Phantom Jade thought he could hear the heartbeat and breathing of everyone in the area.

As the two people drew closer, Red Coral wrapped her arms around herself and closed her eyes. When Phantom Jade came to a point where she was in his attack range, the hesitation on his face disappeared. There was only wariness and murderous intention in his eyes.

Red Coral put the jade slit ring back into her Universe Bag once Phantom Jade had her in his attack range. She secretly relaxed her grip and prepared to grab her saber at any time to save herself.

‘Did you actually think I would close my eyes and wait for my death? What a joke.’

There was no way anyone from Black Rose would just close their eyes and wait for their deaths. No matter what sort of desperate and hopeless situation they were in, they would rather fight to their deaths...

However, from the moment Red Coral was surrounded, she had thought of something.

Aside from the people from Purple Sun Sect in the main hall, there was also a strange player who fought against a Stone Giant by himself!

Even though she had not noticed him when she came over, from the moment she was surrounded, the man with the fan and his group would cast gazes at him unintentionally. Their reactions made her certain that there was something strange about the person in the corner.

However, since the time she had to observe their reactions was short and she did not personally witness their fight, she could not be certain whether the two parties had argued or fought before.

But she did have a bit of hope toward him. Hence, while all the words she said and the frailty she showed seemed to have been targeted at the people from Purple Sun Sect, in truth, they were for the young man in the corner.

But a pity for her, her plan deviated again. Even when Phantom Jade moved to stand right in front of her, the young man did not show any intention to save a damsel in distress even after he witnessed something so unfair.

‘You stupid, cowardly man!’

Red Coral clenched her teeth and completely gave up on placing her hopes on that person. She decided to fight to her death!

At that moment, a lackadaisical voice everyone’s ears. “Since you did not manage to land a deal, why don’t we make a deal ourselves, beautiful?”

When he heard that sentence, the man with the fan froze while fanning himself.
