Chapter 1595: Chapter 1596: The Secret Revealed
Ye Luo spoke to the two maids in black.
From the moment Ye Luo paid, the maid in black who had been battling to the death with Ye Luo earlier, was now entirely his!
The two women came before Ye Luo and respectfully called out in a low voice, "Master!"
"Can any of you tell me why this is? Why do those guards in black have such formidable strength? Why do you seem to have no emotions of your own? And why is it that here, money can buy everything!"
Ye Luo had too many questions, but unfortunately, no one could answer them. Now, he could only ask these two!
The maid in black, who belonged to Ye Luo, furrowed her brows slightly but made no motion, evidently because there were questions Ye Luo asked that she couldn’t answer.
Instead, the maid in black whom Ye Luo saved stared fixedly at him, her expression changing unpredictably.
Suddenly, as if the maid in black made some resolute decision, she waved her hand, and a ray of light shot toward Ye Luo!
At least, in everyone’s eyes, it seemed like an attack!
"How dare you!"
Suddenly, an angry shout came, and the man in blue who had appeared earlier returned, unleashing a terrifying aura. At the same time, the maid in black was instantly killed, and the light in mid-air was intercepted!
However, the man in blue did not notice that another thin thread of light had already entered Ye Luo’s mind!
"What are you doing?"
Ye Luo angrily yelled at the man in blue. This maid in black, whom Ye Luo had just saved a moment ago, had now been slain!
Ye Luo was shocked by the man in blue’s strength and felt pity for the maid in black!
"I’m sorry, esteemed guest. The Commerce Alliance offers sincere apologies for your loss. As compensation, according to our rules, we will repay you tenfold the loss. You bought this maid in black for ten million, and now, we will compensate you one hundred million!"
After speaking, a Qiankun Ring flew toward Ye Luo, yet the man in blue vanished instantly!
Damn it!
Are lives here so worthless? Just a word about money and nothing else matters!
Ye Luo was filled with rage, but at this moment, a voice appeared in his mind.
"Master!"
It was the maid in black who had just been slain!
"Master, I am now only a remnant soul, a memory. I knew when I made this decision what the result would be, so please listen to me, master. Please do not ask any questions, because I cannot answer them!"
"Everything the master sees, whether it’s us maids or guards, or slaves, originally belonged to this small world. But ten thousand years ago, our world was discovered by the outside. From then on, we were marked as slaves! Just like other slave races, we have been auctioned over and over until three thousand years ago when we fell into the hands of the Commerce Alliance!"
"From the moment we are put on sale, we are classified according to our qualifications, all to serve the new masters entering this world! We have never given up on resistance, but the Commerce Alliance is too strong, and we only know the existence of the outside world, yet we don’t know what it is, so we can’t resist. According to the rules, the master is the supreme existence in our world, and no one will harm you, except other masters!"
"So, master, you needn’t worry about your safety. If you want to learn more, please find our Slave Hall. In Slave Hall, there is an elder named Zhao. He is the king of our slave race, and he can tell you everything, though it will certainly be extremely dangerous, and you may find it hard to locate the king!"
"That’s all, master. Thank you for saving me. Now I can tell you, we do have emotions, but once they are displayed, we are obliterated! As for our strength, I can tell you, according to the Commerce Alliance, our slave race possesses special bloodlines. Unfortunately, we are branded with a race slave mark! Commerce Alliance values money above all else; this is the only thing I know, after all, I am just a regular maid. If not for my mother having served the king, I wouldn’t even know this. You needn’t ask others, for they know nothing. To seek answers, you must find the king!"
With that, the voice ceased, and Ye Luo could keenly feel the last wisp of the maid in black’s soul completely vanish!
Special bloodlines?
Slave race?
Slave mark!
And the Commerce Alliance! The entire small world marketed as merchandise!
All this information was overwhelming, enough to shake Ye Luo!
At this moment, Ye Luo could clearly feel the cruelty of the Martial Realm!
If Ye Luo hadn’t come to the Immortal Domain this time, how else could he know so much, a black market?
No, this place was far more than just a mere black market!
Although Ye Luo was full of doubts at this moment, he did not show them because he knew that his actions just now had probably drawn the attention of the Commerce Alliance.
Moving forward, Ye Luo could only rely on himself to seek answers, and he couldn’t be too hasty. Because if the Commerce Alliance discovered Ye Luo’s intentions, they would undoubtedly eradicate him without mercy!
What about that king, is he not the best example?
Perhaps in the outside world, in his nation, he was a noble with real power, but here, his fall seemed insignificant, with nobody concerned!
The power of the Commerce Alliance is undoubtedly formidable, far beyond what Ye Luo could reach!
Even the Great Tang Empire in front of them might be insignificant, let alone Ye Luo!
"Senior, can you discern what special bloodlines these people possess?"
Ye Luo silently asked Ao Long in his heart, hoping that Ao Long might know more.
But this time, Ye Luo was disappointed.
"Kid, the Martial Realm holds too many secrets, and even I can’t know everything. Special bloodlines? There are countless special bloodlines. How could I know them all? You’d best not get involved, at least not now. Clearly, this Commerce Alliance is not something you can afford to provoke at present!"
Ye Luo understood Ao Long’s implication, but since he had encountered this, he couldn’t ignore it. Of course, he wouldn’t be foolish enough to throw his life away now, as the Commerce Alliance was not an opponent he could contend with at the moment, so Ye Luo could only bury the questions in his heart!
"Let’s go back first!"
Turning around, Ye Luo addressed his own maid in black, while still not intending to ask too much about the Fox Clan girl he had saved. Demon Clan? In truth, Ye Luo still harbored a slight aversion to the Demon Clan even now!
And at this moment, Ye Luo realized he hadn’t asked for his maid’s name so far.
"By the way, what is your name?"
With this thought, Ye Luo casually asked.
