Chapter 351: The Yin Token of Forgettance
In a dark, secluded alleyway, Ye Qing was shambling behind an old woman with glassy, unfocused eyes.
The old woman was carrying a dim oil lamp, its flame swaying hypnotically in the darkness. There was an ancient face behind her skull that was staring fixatedly at Ye Qing with murky eyes.
Crackle!
Suddenly, the oil lamp in the old womans hands crackled audibly and scattered a ton of sparks. Sparks burst out of the flame and bounced everywhere within the glass.
The spark flickered unnaturally like it was alive. In fact, a translucent silhouette was reflected within each spark. Ye Qings voice could be heard from one of the sparks.
Ill sell you the Yin Token, Granny Lampflower!
Is that so? But I dont feel like buying anymore. Granny Lampflower stopped in her tracks and looked down on the oil lamp.
No, I mean Im going to give it to you for free! All I ask is that you let me go! Ye Qings panicked voice echoed inside the lamp.
Its fine. I prefer taking what I want with my own hands, Granny Lampflower replied unhurriedly.
I I Ill do anything as long as you let me go. Please! Ye Qings voice grew increasingly fearful.
Instead of answering, Granny Lampflower slowly bent down until she was staring directly into the sparks. Her lips slowly split open into a kind smile as she answered, Youre welcome, but I prefer reaping the fruits of my own labor!
Ye Qing was silent for a moment before asking in a dejected voice, At least tell me one thing before you kill me. What on earth is that Yin Token, and why is everyone fighting for it?
No. Granny Lampflower said slowly, I loathe monologues and the consequences it brings, you see.
Granny Lampflower slowly extended her thin, withered hand toward Ye Qing. When her fingers made contact with his chest, it actually went right through like her hand was intangible. There was no mistaking the sensation of her hand closing around his heart, however. Granny Lampflower loved eating a persons insides, but she usually did it without harming their exterior. It was her unique ability. Barring exceptional circumstances, most of her victims looked fine on the outside even though their insides were completely gone.
You cant win them all, I suppose.
Ye Qing suddenly let out a sigh, but it wasnt one of resignation. It was more like an annoyed, I cannot believe you dont appreciate my world class acting sigh.
A hint of unease suddenly struck Granny Lampflower. She didnt hesitate to tighten her grip and attempt to pull out Ye Qings heart.
Ba-thump!
Ye Qings heart beat once, and Granny Lampflowers hand was struck by a white hot sensation. She felt like she was clutching a chunk of red hot iron, not a human heart.
She was a ghost. She wasnt supposed to be able to feel anything, but she did. A terrible cry of pain escaped Granny Lampflowers lips as she hurriedly withdrew her hand, but she failed to do so in time before Ye Qings whole body turned into a furnace, and her forearm disintegrated into ash.
At the same time, her oil lamp abruptly exploded into smithereens. Sparks scattered everywhere, and the wails of countless yin souls could be heard from them. They were all trapped within the lamp until now.
Argh! Granny Lampflower let out a bloodcurdling scream, though it was impossible to say if it was physical, mental, or both. She immediately glided away from Ye Qing at a speed that didnt fit her apparent age.
The woman replied while toying with her umbrella, It doesnt matter who I am. What matters is that you stay where you are. Im easily frightened, you see. If I dont like what youre doing, I might just cry for help from a yin guard or a vile ghost.
When Ye Qing continued to watch her seriously, the woman suddenly broke into a giggle and said, Well, I guess I should stop teasing you. I mean you no harm, scion.
Ye Qing didnt say anything.
Seeing that Ye Qing was still on guard against her, the womans voice turned a little sad. You dont believe me? You break my heart, scion. Im just a weak little woman.
Liar, Ye Qing replied bluntly. She was a woman, sure, but weak? Who was she kidding?
Hahaha! Youre a funny man, scion. She giggled. If you must know why Im following you, its because I saw a cute little idiot foolishly showing off his Yin Token of Forgettance in public. It was so cute I couldnt help but want to follow him and protect him.
Cute little idiot? Whos she talking about? Well, whoever shes talking about, it cant possibly be me. The truth will remain a lie as long as I dont admit the truth, right? Ye Qing thought to himself.
He could believe the first half of her sentence, but the second half? Heh. If he was weak, then he was almost certain that this would be a very different conversation.
What is the Yin Token of Forgettance, Miss?
You really dont know? You really are a cute little idiot. Are you lucky, or are you foolish? The woman said teasingly while shaking her head. When she noticed Ye Qings cold, unfeeling gaze, she smirked. Im going to fall in love with you if you keep staring at me like that.
Nani? I have no idea I have such electrifying eyes! I must stare at her until shes hopelessly in love with me!
Ye Qing widened his eyes a little and continued staring at her. A few breaths later, the woman finally sighed. What a wooden man you are. Fine, Ill tell you.
The Yin Token of Forgettance is the item that allows you to enter the inner market.
The inner market? Do they do segregation in the yin world too?
The Yin Market of Fengdu is split into the outer market and the inner market. The woman explained slowly, The outer market is set up for the small fries in both the yin world and the yang world. Anything you might find in the outer market is either ordinary or worthless.
The inner market is the opposite. The inner market is set up for the big shots. Anyone who possesses the qualifications to enter the inner market is either an official deity in Fengdu, a bigshot in the yang world, or people who are incredibly blessed so to speak. Youll find that the items featured in Fengdu are incredibly precious and rare as well.
In fact, one might say that the inner market is the true Yin Market of Fengdu. The outer market only exists to fool and swindle the ordinary folk.
I see. Ye Qing rubbed his nose thoughtfully.
The woman continued, You need the Yin Token of Forgettance to enter the inner market. Naturally, the inner market represents an opportunity of a lifetime for both humans and ghosts.
You have no idea about the value of the Yin Token, and yet youre showing it off in public. On top of that, your strength is average at best. Of course the yin guard, Granny Lamp and more are targeting you.
Even if you havent drawn their attention, its only a matter of time before someone else sets their sight on you.
