Chapter 274: How Dare He!
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Take the initiative!
Wang Ye’s goal had never changed.
He wanted to drink the soup! A big bowl of soup!
The white lightning weapon spirit had already told him tactfully not to be greedy and to go to passage 2.
Those words were said at the end when the other party had a very good impression of him. Its feelings for him were very sincere.
When he asked the second question, the white lightning weapon spirit had also pointed out that his strength and potential were not good enough.
He would go to passage 2 then. He had always been very obedient.
Wang Ye had an impression of passage 2 because regardless of whether it was he, Yi Nai’er, or Nante, all of them felt attracted to the passage though the attraction was not strong.
The number 391 in the passage was also the largest among all the numbers in the passages.
Passages 7, 8, 9, and 10. These four contained true Black Hole-level treasures!
The numbers in them were very small.
Passage 7 had the number 3, passages 8 and 9 had the number 2, and passage
10 had the number 1.
At this point, he could deduce what they meant.
If his guess was correct, there were only two possibilities for the numbers in the passages. Either they represented the number of people who could successfully pass or they represented the number of treasures in the passage.
The other possibilities were minuscule.
“To be honest, there’s no need for you to be hostile towards me.” Wang Ye’s gaze swept across the crowd. He smiled. “I’m the least threat to you. No matter what, I won’t be able to get the black realm’s treasure.”
Everyone’s expression eased a little.
Indeed, a cosmic-level brat didn’t have such ability.
“What do you want?” The white-robed youth asked.
“To earn money.” Wang Ye didn’t hide it. “My goal is very pure and simple. Making a little money and leaving this place safely is my biggest wish. As for who gets the black realm’s treasure, I don’t care. Either way, that person will certainly not be me.”
“How do you want to earn the money?” The brown-haired man said.
“Selling information. I already know 90% of the information about the Wuyuan Black Realm,” Wang Ye said. “This includes the secrets of these ten passages, the safe way out, and the location of the black realm’s treasure that everyone is most concerned about.”
Ha!
Everyone’s expression changed.
Many people’s breathing quickened, and their eyes were burning with desire. They stared at Wang Ye as if they wanted to swallow him alive.
“Why should we believe you?” A curly-haired youth said hesitantly.
“Harming you guys won’t do me any good.” Wang Ye smiled. “Let’s form a friendly relationship so that we can meet on good terms again in the future. If I lie to you, you can come after me after I leave the black realm.”
“If you still don’t believe me…” Wang Ye pointed at the ball of white lightning. “We still have three chances. You only need to gather 100,000 dark crystals to go in and ask three questions.”
“Enter my ass! More than 90% of the dark crystals available here are in your pockets!” Everyone cursed in their hearts.
“How much do you want? We’ll give it to you.” The young man in white raised his head.
“The consultation fee is one million cosmic dollars,” Wang Ye said calmly.
Everyone was in an uproar.
How was this a consultation fee?!
“Why don’t you just blatantly rob then!” The white-robed youth was so angry that he lost control of his expression. “You merely spent 100,000 cosmic dollars on dark crystals!”
“I’m not done yet.” Wang Ye glanced at him.
The young man in white gritted his teeth and swallowed the words he wanted to say.
“One million cosmic dollars per question. I’ll collect the money first,” Wang Ye said leisurely. “Then, I’ll answer them one-on-one according to the order of payment. Oh, right. I have to rest for a while after I receive someone.”
The white-robed youth’s face darkened.
He had met profiteers, but never someone so crafty!
One million cosmic dollars, to answer a single question!
How shameless!
Was he blinded by money?
Moreover, what the hell was with resting for a while after receiving one person? Did he go to the Myriad Races Brothel too many times?
“I don’t have that much money!” The young man in white gritted his teeth. If he wasn’t afraid of the white lightning, he would have chopped Wang Ye into pieces by now!
“You talk so much when you don’t have money.” Wang Ye rolled his eyes at him and swept his gaze across the crowd. “It’s entirely up to you whether you’re willing to consult me. What I can say is that one million cosmic dollars are guaranteed to be worth it. In these ten passages, there arc Black Hole-level treasures worth more than one million dark crystals, and there are more than one! If you’re interested, come and pay. First come, first served.”
With that, Wang Ye who was surrounded by Yi Nai’er’s ten Dark Energy-level slaves walked towards the entrance of the core area, where there were few people.
He left behind the group of stunned cosmic humans, their hearts beating wildly.
Black Hole-level treasures that were worth more than a million dark crystals!
Indeed, in comparison, the consultation fee of a mere million cosmic dollars was simply nothing.
The Dark Energy-level experts who had been fighting individually began to ponder. Some discussed with each other. In an instant, circles were formed. The scene was turbulent and chaotic.
“Sister, what is his background?” Yu Huotong looked at Wang Ye’s back and asked.
“Wang Ye escaped from a colony planet, but he’s very powerful!” Yu Min said. “Both his intelligence and strength are top-notch!”
“To be able to deal with so many Dark Energy-level experts like a fish in water, he is indeed something. I underestimated him before. I didn’t expect him to have such ability.” Yu Huotong nodded.
Yu Min’s pretty face showed a touch of joy as if she was the one who was praised by her 16th Brother. “Then should we ask him too, Brother Sixteen?”
“Let’s wait and see. We’ll discuss it first,” Yu Huotong pondered.
“Alright.”

In a corner of the core area.
“Wang Ye, you’re crazy…” Nante shook his head.
One million cosmic dollars for one question!
How dare he?
Would anyone be so stupid as to spend this money to ask?
One million cosmic dollars was already the starting price for an ordinary four-star life planet!
“You underestimate them,” Wang Ye said. “An ordinary advanced Dark Energy-level expert already has a net worth of a million cosmic dollars. The dozens of Dark Energy-level experts who came in before us are all elites among Dark Energy-level experts. They will most certainly have a net worth of more than one million cosmic dollars. Yi Nai’er, if it were you, would you pay?”
“Of course. It’s just a small sum of money,” Yi Nai’er replied without hesitation.
“See?” Wang Ye shrugged at Nante.
Nante was speechless. This was beyond his knowledge.
“Hmm?” Wang Ye looked into the distance.
He didn’t expect that the first one to come would be the young man with the Scorching Sun bloodline.
From the beginning to the end, the other party had been expressionless. He did not expect him to be a hidden big shot.
As expected, rich people tended to keep a low profile.
“Five.” The Scorching Sun bloodline youth said concisely, flashing a 3-star yellow card from the Cosmic Bank, transferring 5 million cosmic dollars immediately.
From the beginning to the end, no pleasantries were said. After paying, he turned around and left.
Nante was stunned.
This…
Just like that, Wang Ye obtained 5 million cosmic dollars?
It was too easy!
“Are you done daydreaming?” Wang Ye extended his hand and waved it in front of Nante. “Note down the order and the payment. The second one is coming.”
Tsk, tsk.
A three-star yellow card!
Only when the circulating funds in one’s account exceeded 10 billion cosmic dollars could one get a yellow card.
The little rich lady beside him only had a two-star orange card.
This fellow, one really couldn’t tell.
The second one to arrive was a beautiful long-haired swordswoman.
Similarly, she didn’t say anything before spending 3 million cosmic dollars. “I’m the second one, right?”.
“That’s right.” Wang Ye kicked Nante, and Nante quickly recorded it.
“Alright.” The long-haired beauty turned around and left.
The third person who came over was an old man. He smiled at Wang Ye and chatted for a while before spending 2 million cosmic dollars.
The fourth, the fifth, the sixth…
Nante was numb.
From the moment their gains broke through 10 million cosmic dollars, the rest was just pure numbers to him.
He couldn’t imagine what he could buy with so much money. He had to admit that his knowledge was too shallow.
“When you asked me to continue buying dark crystals, did you already think of this?” Since there was no one around, Yi Nai’er and Wang Ye started chatting.
“I didn’t think so much at that time.” Wang Ye smiled. “I was just trying my best to hold the chips in my hand. Then, I’ll have a basis for my advance and retreat. It’ll be easier for me to act. But now, it seems like I’m a little prophetic.”
“You’re really amazing.” Yi Nai’er looked at Wang Ye with admiration in her eyes. “If we can leave this place, I’ll introduce you to my father. You two will definitely get along!”
Heh, little girls are so naive. Fathers-in-law never liked sons-in-law.
As they were chatting, two stalwart figures slowly walked over.
One of them was Hayat, and next to him was a majestic man, whose identity was already known to Wang Ye.
Tangque Loumen.
He was from the End Mountain Cosmic Nation like Hayat, a super warrior who had passed through the thunder origin core barrier with his body alone.
“I’m impressed by your brain. As expected of a student from the Supreme Human Academy. If you’re interested in coming to the Tangque imperial family in the future, I’ll introduce you,” Tangque Loumen said with a smile.
“Alright.” Wang Ye extended his hand and shook the other party’s hand.
“Brother Wang Ye, can you give me some face? Loumen doesn’t have that much money on his card right now,” Hayat said. “But he’ll transfer it to you when we get out. I’ll vouch for it.”
“No need. We trust our friends.” Wang Ye smiled at Tangque Loumen, who was also smiling.
After chatting for a while, Hayat and Tangque Loumen left together.
Nante shook his head speechlessly.
It was hard to imagine. Tangque Loumen, an expert, had actually taken the initiative to befriend them and even owed them a favor.
Most importantly… Wang Ye hadn’t given him anything at all!
He just moved his mouth!
He really had a silver tongue!
He was convinced!
After Tangque Loumen, the frequency of people coming gradually decreased.
Wang Ye accepted the last sum.
“That’s about it.” Wang Ye looked at the names and serial numbers Nante recorded.
21 people, 53 questions.
Net income: 53 million cosmic dollars!
Those who could afford the consultation fees were basically all here.
No one was not stupid. Since they wanted to pay, they would pay early. The order of first come first served was very important.
Those who came later either had little wealth or had to gather a few to gather enough money.
They would basically only ask one or two questions, and the quality could not be compared to the previous ones.
As for the few who had been the most active previously, such as the white-robed youth and the brown-haired man, there was not a single shadow of them.
Wang Ye sorted out the information and his thoughts. He went to the ten passages and took a look again, confirming the speculations in his heart.
“The money is firmly in our hands now,” Wang Ye smiled at Nante. “We can start calling our customers over, starting with the two seniors..”
