801: C801 Holy Maiden Leave

C801 Holy Maiden Leave

After seeing off the bureau and the leader, Ye Ling didn't immediately return to the presidential suite. Instead, he planned to find a flower shop to buy some flowers and meet Han Jing.

After all, what happened last night was indeed a debt to Han Jing, and she couldn't say nothing.

However, before he walked out of the room, a cold voice rang out in his mind.

"Ding dong, Holy Maiden has awoken. Congratulations to the system for completing the quest. The reward is 5000 points and a lottery chance. Do you wish to draw the lottery?"

"What!"

Ye Ling's expression changed. It wasn't because he was too excited about completing the mission, but it was because he felt like this little girl had woken up at the wrong time.

No, he had to go back immediately. Otherwise, if this little girl went crazy, the consequences would be unimaginable. After all, this was the imperial court, so they couldn't afford to mess around.

He turned around and rushed into the hotel. Without even taking the elevator, he kicked open the fire escape at the side and rushed up the stairs at lightning speed. In a few breaths, he arrived at the top floor of the 21st floor and opened the door to the presidential suite.

"Clang!"

Due to the excessive force, the door slammed into the wall and made a loud sound. Ye Ling was directly connected to it, but he was stunned the next moment.

It was not as messy as he had expected. The furnishings did not change at all. It was completely empty.

"Could it be that he has already left?"

He slowly pushed the door open and entered the room. However, when he saw a figure standing less than a meter away from him with an expressionless face, staring straight at him, he almost staggered out of fright.

Whoosh.

The moment she saw Ye Ling appear, Holy Maiden's eyes twitched and a trace of coldness appeared in her eyes. She instantly pulled out her blade and pressed it against Ye Ling's neck. The crimson red blade emitted a bloodthirsty glow, as if it was alive.

"Hey, I saved you. Otherwise, you might not be able to stand here safely. Are you people of the Sun Country going to repay this kindness with your hatred?"

A wave of anger rose in Ye Ling's heart as he said angrily.

[We had been through a lot last night, and now we don't know each other anymore?] Heh, a woman!

Of course, he could only think of these words. He would never dare to say them out loud, otherwise, he was afraid that Holy Maiden would not be able to control herself and cut him down.

However, the next moment, Ye Ling noticed the struggle on Holy Maiden's face. Even her hand that was holding onto the handle of her saber was trembling slightly, as if she was having a hard time making up her mind.

"Is this woman reluctant to part with me?"

Ye Ling was stunned. He thought in his heart that with his eyesight, he could tell that Holy Maiden's eyes were full of hesitation.

"Tsk, looks like yesterday's relationship wasn't fostered in vain."

Ye Ling grinned and looked quite proud of himself.

Seeing Ye Ling's smile, the last bit of stubbornness in Holy Maiden's heart was finally put down. With a sigh, the Demon Saber Village returned to its scabbard and stared at Ye Ling for a long time. Then, Holy Maiden slowly bent down and bowed to Ye Ling.

Without waiting for Ye Ling's reply, Holy Maiden turned around and jumped out of the window.

"Hey!"

Ye Ling didn't expect her to do this. He immediately ran to the window and looked outside. However, he could no longer see Holy Maiden in his line of sight.

He really left?

Ye Ling, who should have been relieved, had a complicated feeling in his heart for some reason.

He wanted to make this emotion clear … Perhaps it was a loss?2

Ye Ling was stunned for a long time before he shook his head mockingly, turned his head back and closed the window.

However, what Ye Ling did not know was that when he stuck his head out, Holy Maiden did not leave, but stood quietly at the edge of the roof looking at him. What Ye Ling did not know was that when he stuck his head out, Holy Maiden did not leave, but stood at the edge of the roof looking at him silently.

But soon, the emotions in Holy Maiden's eyes disappeared in a flash, replaced by their original clarity. Her figure flashed, and she disappeared from the rooftop as if she had never been there.

He returned to the living room and sat down on the sofa. He stared at a certain place in a daze, still in the same state of mind as before.

Although he was beginning to laugh at himself for worrying about personal gains and losses, sometimes, this wasn't something he could control.

"Du …"

At this moment, the sound of a cell phone ringing broke the silence in the air. Ye Ling took a deep breath and adjusted his mood. He looked at the screen and saw that it was from Zhao Yan.

He knew that Zhao Yan usually wouldn't bother him with her phone calls, so he didn't dare to delay when she called. He quickly picked up the call and said, "Hello, Zhao Yan is me."

"Young Master Ye."

Zhao Yan's voice came from the other end of the phone. It was obvious that she had purposely suppressed her emotions. However, Ye Ling could still hear Zhao Yan's anxiousness from the phone.

"What happened?"

Ye Ling's gaze turned serious as he hurriedly asked.

"There is indeed an emergency. Young Master Ye, listen to me first."

Zhao Yan took a deep breath, adjusted her emotions, and said, "According to Young Master Ye's instructions, I asked around the Mi Guo Qiao city to find out about the sale of the land. I knew that there was a thousand mu of land in the center of the city that was currently being prepared for auction, so I personally brought some people to attend the auction and bought it with 500 million gold."

However, the moment we bought this piece of land, we received a warning from one of the local forces, claiming that they were from the Black Sieve Sect and that they were in charge of managing the land in this part of the city. If we wanted to use this piece of land, we would have to pay them 100 million gold as a protection fee and give us three days' time, or else they would take it back in their own way.

At this point, a trace of anger could be heard in Zhao Yan's voice.

I only spent a total of 500 million gold to buy the land. However, the other side asked for 100 million as soon as they opened their mouth. It was obvious that they were from a wealthy and foreign company that didn't have any roots in the local area, so they were planning to extort them.

At first, Zhao Yan didn't really care. She thought that the other party was just a small group of local people who were spouting nonsense, so she was prepared to use Lingtian Group to request the local police to settle this issue.

Who knew that when the local police heard the two words' Black Sieve Sect ', they immediately started to decline. Although they promised Zhao Yan that they would investigate, but Zhao Yan could tell that he was just being perfunctory and didn't intend to help at all.

Hearing that, Ye Ling's gaze turned cold. Someone actually dared to blackmail him?
