Chapter 1090 - Slightly Wet Feeling

After receiving Qin Yu’s confirmation crystal sign, the demon woman behind the counter was much more respectful.

The complexions of some Nine Nether Pagoda demons in the surroundings who were responsible for various tasks also changed.

Disregarding all else, just being someone who could pass the test and earn the qualifications to open Nine Nether Pagoda’s eighth floor was a powerful indication of his strength.

But it was clear that status and luck were two entirely unrelated things. After the demon woman checked the console behind the counter, she apologetically said, “I’m very sorry, but all of the rooms on the eighth floor are fully occupied right now. I must ask honored guest to please wait.”

Sure enough, those who dared to come to Nine Nether Pagoda to cultivate were all masters who had no need for money. The eighth floor, which had a price that left even Qin Yu sucking in a cold breath, was completely booked.

He thought for a moment and asked, “How long do I need to wait?”

The demon woman shook her head, “Sorry, but I cannot make any guarantees. But you may pay demon crystals ahead of time and we will book a room once a vacancy appears. Until then, I must ask dear guest to wait at Nine Nether Pagoda.”

Qin Yu nodded. “Alright.” Since he came here, he had to verify whether or not Nine Nether Pagoda was related to his goal. If it wasn’t, there was no need to waste any more of his time here.

The demon woman brightly smiled and her eyes glowed, “For the convenience of our guests that come from all over, our Nine Nether Pagoda has constructed various recreation and entertainment venues nearby. Since guest has booked a room on the eighth floor, you are amongst our most honored guests and can enjoy top treatment for free. I will immediately go and arrange things for you…may I ask if you have any specific requirements…?”

As she spoke, her eyes constantly scanned Qin Yu’s face. There was a smoldering heat there. It was obvious that as long as Qin Yu crooked his finger at her, she would ‘deliver’ herself to his doorstep.

This was a strong, handsome, and wealthy guest. Of course she didn’t mind if something occurred between them.

Although Qin Yu could understand the instinct to attach to powerhouses in the harsh living environment of the abyss, he still found it difficult to withstand the demon woman’s enthusiasm.

“There’s no need. Just prepare a quiet room for me.”

“Very well. Please wait a moment.” The demon woman was disappointed but she didn’t dare to complain. As soon as the processing was complete, a demon came over and respectfully guided Qin Yu away.

The quiet room’s environment was good. After Qin Yu sent the demon away, he walked over to the window and looked out. This place was close to Nine Nether Pagoda. From here, he could see the demons walking in and out.

And a bit further away was where Qin Yu had received the qualification verification test.

The little courtyard was quiet and peaceful. There were no demon guards outside, but Qin Yu could clearly feel the invisible aura that flooded the surroundings.

It was low and surly, but within this surliness there was a trace of blazing heat and exuberant passion.

Now that he had time, Qin Yu stood at the window and looked out for a long time. As he thought, someone who broke through to the Demon Commander level and rose to the top, only a step away from the King boundary…how could someone like that willingly wait for death?

But what a pity, even though Qin Yu could see that this other party had made some preparations, if he wanted to rely on these to change his situation, it was still far from enough.

Unless an external force helped him…

Qin Yu furrowed his eyebrows, a thoughtful look on his face. Although the old demon in the courtyard was on the verge of death and looked incomparably pitiful, with the strength he still possessed, he must have had a considerable status in the Nightmare Clan a long time ago.

Perhaps this was a chess piece he could make use of.

His heart moved for a moment, but after thinking for a bit he decided to push this idea to the side.

First of all, his present situation still wasn’t clear. Until he grasped the key, making such a gamble wasn’t a good choice. Secondly, he didn’t know the status of this old demon. Even if he didn’t consider these factors, right now wasn’t the time when he had been pushed to the ends of his limits.

Even if Qin Yu decided to do something, he had to start when this old demon felt thorough despair, when the shadow of death truly arrived for him. Only then would he have the best effect.

Of course, this was only a temporary thought. He would have to look at the situation in the future before considering things again.

At this time, there was a knock on his door. Qin Yu turned and opened it.

The one waiting outside was the demon who had led Qin Yu here. The demon bowed respectfully and said, “Honored guest, I hope you are doing well. We just received news that there is a vacancy on the eighth floor. If there are no other problems, please come with me.”

Qin Yu had a happy expression. He didn’t think that he would be waiting for such a short period of time before a room opened up.

Moments later, after receiving his room card, Qin Yu entered Nine Nether Pagoda’s interior transmission array. The room card in his hand flashed with a dim light and his surroundings darkened. When light returned, he was on the eighth level.

“Welcome dear guest to the eighth floor. I am responsible for maintaining order here. I ask that you follow the rules.” A low voice resounded through the passage. Qin Yu only then noticed a black-robed figure sitting before a table in a corner.

This caused him to raise his vigilance.

With Qin Yu’s current cultivation, he could completely sense his surroundings with just a thought. But, he wasn’t able to sense this person at all before they spoke.

This alone proved that the one sitting at the table wasn’t an ordinary person.

Nine Nether Pagoda’s ninth floor was never opened to the outside world. This wasn’t a question of demon crystals. Rather, it was a bottom line maintained by the Nightmare Clan.

The eighth floor was already the limit he could reach…it seemed like there was something unusual here, otherwise the Nightmare Clan wouldn’t have dispatched a powerhouse to specifically come here.

Qin Yu glanced around. There was a sign above the table with a list of rules. He nodded in understanding.

The black-robed figure nodded and didn’t speak again. Qin Yu thought for a moment and then walked away to find his room.

During this process, he suppressed the urge to look back. This was because at this time, he discovered another shocking thing.

That was, when the black-robed figure wasn’t speaking, even if Qin Yu knew he was there, his cognition of him became blurry.

Simply put, he unexpectedly felt as if he would soon forget about this other party!

If someone were dispatched here to maintain order on Nine Nether Pagoda’s eighth floor, they were inevitably some kind of fierce character.

But this other party’s strength…was much more terrifying than he imagined.

As Qin Yu was startled, there was the sound of footsteps coming from up ahead. Due to the shape of Nine Nether Pagoda, the channel was in the shape of a ring.

As Qin Yu walked forward he could clearly see the figure coming towards him.

It was a woman.

Uh…

Woman!

The disrespectful thoughts that popped into Qin Yu’s mind before began to appear once again.

He took a deep breath and pressed down all these thoughts. As he suspected, he had been affected by the power here and was beginning to lose control of his thoughts.

This wasn’t a good sign!

Qin Yu firmed his heart and mind. Maintaining a calm expression, his eyes fell on this person.

The demon woman walking towards him didn’t conceal her appearance. But when he saw her, she appeared blurry, as if a light layer of mist covered her face.

Even so, just her eyes alone were shockingly beautiful. It was hard to imagine how beautiful she would be if she revealed herself.

Most importantly, from her eyes, Qin Yu could sense something tenacious.

Qin Yu had of course seen countless beautiful women before. Even if he didn’t talk about anyone else, just Mian Ya alone, who was doing her best to crawl into his bed, was a top beauty in the abyss.

So no matter how enchanting this woman’s eyes were, Qin Yu only took one extra glance before looking away.

If this person could enter Nine Nether Pagoda’s eighth floor to cultivate, even a fool knew that she wasn’t ordinary.

It was better to not provoke trouble as much as he could.

But even if Qin Yu didn’t want to provoke trouble, that didn’t mean trouble wouldn’t come to him.

As they brushed past each other and were about to become passersby that only briefly crossed lines, Qin Yu felt a sudden throbbing in his heart.

Then, that throbbing suddenly erupted, transforming into an incomparably fierce and surging impulse that flooded his mind!

He paused, his breathing becoming rapid. Qin Yu felt a sudden desire to grab this demon woman and press her beneath his body, wildly ravaging her!

Fortunately, Qin Yu’s mind was formidable enough. With a rough cough, he instantly overcame this impulse. He furrowed his eyebrows together.

His eyes landed on the woman in front of him. Qin Yu’s eyebrows furrowed even deeper. He discovered that this woman had a similar change in mood, and her emotions were even more intense than his.

A red flush crawled up her face. The vapor-like strength that covered her face rapidly faded away.

A strikingly beautiful face appeared in front of Qin Yu. Perhaps because of the demon seed bloodline that flowed within her body, her features were much more pronounced and her outline more distinct compared to those of a human woman. Even the tenacity in her stunning eyes fit her perfectly, making her look even more beautiful and moving!

But now, those beautiful eyes were flooded with anger and shame. She glared at Qin Yu, a cold chill rising in the air.

In addition to that, there was even more surprise. She never thought that she would suddenly develop such emotions towards a strange man she had never met before, and such intense emotions at that.

As she smelled his scent, it was like flames that had fuel constantly being poured on them. The woman’s breathing quickened and she bit her lips. She immediately took several steps backwards, opening up the distance between her and Qin Yu.

Suddenly, the impulsive desire that seemed as if it would burn all of her reasoning and restraint to ashes quickly faded like a falling tide, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

If it weren’t for her rough breathing and her weak legs, she would have suspected that everything she felt just now was an illusion.

But the slightly wet feeling told her that it was impossible for this to have been a hallucination. A nearly disastrous event occurred here a moment ago.

As this thought appeared, her complexion paled further and the shame and anger vanished from her eyes, replaced with ice coldness and callousness.

She looked deeply at Qin Yu. Then, without a word, she turned and walked away, soon disappearing from sight.

This was truly an unexpected disaster. Who knew what in the world just happened? But the look in her eyes left Qin Yu laughing helplessly to himself. He secretly thought that something so inexplicable wouldn’t end so easily like this.

But what was the reason?

He rubbed his chest. The fiercely beating heart of the abyss was still beating wildly. But compared to before, it was several times slower.

Before, he really was worried that the heart of the abyss would beat so fast that it would surpass its limits and then explode into pieces!
