Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

“Mr. Lu, this will be your room from now on. There are a lot of distinguished guests around. I hope you don’t wander around needlessly. We are not responsible if anything happens.”

Lu Yuan nodded after hearing the Paper Servant’s words.

Then, he took out a copper coin and handed it to the Paper Servant.

“Mr. Lu, what is this?”

Looking at the copper coin, the Paper Man’s eyes lit up.

Lu Yuan asked, “Friend, is there anything else that 1 need to pay attention to in this residence?”

The Paper Servant instantly understood.

After accepting Lu Yuan’s copper coin, the Paper Servant said, “Mr. Lu, please listen carefully. The King of Hell’s residence is divided into a front courtyard, a middle court and a back courtyard.”

“The front courtyard is where servants like us and guests like you live.”

“The middle court is the area where the residence holds banquets and receives distinguished guests. Some guests that the King of Hell has taken a fancy to will also be arranged to stay in this area.”

“As for the back courtyard, it’s where the King of Hell and his family members live.”

“For you, sir, it’s best if you don’t go to the middle and back courtyard.”

“This is because many of the people living in the middle court have strong hostility towards strangers. They might attack you directly.”

“As for the back courtyard, I think you know the reason why you shouldn’t simply enter there.”

After hearing this, Lu Yuan asked, “In that case, may 1 ask if there’s any place 1 can go other than the front courtyard?”

The Paper Servant replied, “If you really want to take a breather, turn right after leaving the mansion. There’s a night market there. Usually, the night market will not have many good things. However, this time, the King of Hell is getting married, and a large number of people from all walks of life have gathered in the city. I think there will be many good things in the night market.”

As he said this, the Paper Servant took out a waist token and handed it to Lu Yuan.

“Sir, hold on to this night market waist token. With it, you can enter and leave the night market freely. However, 1 have to remind you that the night market opens from 11 pm to 5 am. If you overstay, you can only leave the night market at 11 pm the next day.”

The Paper Servant advised, “Sir, you probably don’t want to spend the night in the night market. After all, even minor ghosts like us might not escape unscathed.”

After saying this, the Paper Servant left.

Lu Yuan then returned to his room.

To be on the safe side, Lu Yuan even set up many arrays by the door to ensure that he could react immediately if someone approached his room.

After making sure that no one would disturb him, Lu Yuan took out the remaining copper coin.

[Spiritual Ghost Coin]

[Effect: Money makes the world go round. This is a popular currency among ghosts.]

This spiritual ghost coin was in the money pouch that Lu Yuan had found in the room previously.

It was also by relying on these spiritual ghost coins that Lu Yuan was able to learn many things that he did not know from the mouths of these Paper Servants.

However, Lu Yuan only obtained five spiritual ghost coins.

He gave the Paper Servant who led him to the residence one spiritual ghost coin, and the Paper Man butler two coins. He also gave one to the Paper Servant just now.

Now, he only had one last spiritual ghost coin left.

After learning that there was a ghost market in this Ghost City, Lu Yuan felt that he did not have enough spiritual ghost coins.

Fortunately, Lu Yuan had already thought of a way to obtain more coins.

Lu Yuan discovered that this so-called spiritual ghost coin was essentially the condensation of Yang qi.

This so-called Yang qi actually represented lifespan.

To ghosts, Yang qi was like celestial herbs to cultivators.

Thus, as long as Lu Yuan grasped the method to condense Yang qi into ghost coins, he could mint an unlimited amount of coins.

He just so happened to have a pile of materials to refine these coins.

Lu Yuan took out his pill furnace and a few Blood Qi Pills from his storage bag.

The Blood Qi Pills refined by Lu Yuan not only contained a large amount of blood qi, but also contained a portion of the cultivator’s lifespan.

As long as he did it properly, he would be able to extract the Yang qi from the pills

Then, using his pill refinement techniques, he would create fake spiritual ghost coins.

Actually, this method could not be called imitation, because the spiritual ghost coins he created were no different from ordinary ones.

Finally, after spending a day, Lu Yuan acquired 100 spiritual ghost coins.

These coins he created were no different from the ones he had obtained before.

Each ghost coin contained a year of lifespan.

As for the blood qi left over from the pills, Lu Yuan directly absorbed it.

Looking at the spiritual ghost coins in his hand, Lu Yuan was very pleased.

Not only did he figure out how to obtain the Yang Qi required, but he also figured out the minting method.

No one would doubt the authenticity of these spiritual ghost coins.

As he was unsure of the purchasing power of these ghost coins, Lu Yuan had not minted many.

He still had 20 Blood Qi Pills in his storage pouch.

Each of these Blood Qi Pills had a lifespan of at least 200 years stored in them.

Some of the larger ones even contained 500 years of lifespan.

In other words, Lu Yuan could mint thousands of ghost coins in one go.

With this amount of ghost coins, he should be able to obtain many good things in the ghost market.

At 11pm, in the northeast corner of Ghost City, a street that was originally empty began to slowly become lively.

A man in black stopped at the entrance of the street and looked up at the ghost market.

The dense death aura around him was no different from that of the many ghosts that were about to enter the ghost market.

This person was none other than Lu Yuan, who had used his clone to come here.

He was able to emit ghost qi due to the Black Yin Devil Technique that he had cultivated.

Among the crowd, there were some people who were obviously different from the ghosts around them.

Not only did they have sufficient lifespan, but their bodies also faintly emitted the smell of blood qi.

When the surrounding ghosts saw these people, they subconsciously licked their lips. It was obvious that they had bad intentions.

These people were the cultivators who had accidentally entered the Gates of Hell.

However, due to the rules of Ghost City, the ghosts did not dare to casually attack these cultivators.

After seven days, if the cultivators were still in Ghost City, only then could they attack the former without any scruples.

After observing for a moment, Lu Yuan strode into the ghost market.

“Take a look! The best ghost weapons are sold for only 10 spiritual ghost coins each!”

“Fresh living humans are available here! Only two ghost coins each.”

Looking at the countless ghosts and monsters of all shapes and sizes who were trying their best to sell their products, Lu Yuan felt as if he had accidentally entered a flea market from his previous life.

However, after observing for a moment, Lu Yuan was disappointed to find that there were not many things he wanted here.

Just as Lu Yuan thought that that was all there was in the ghost market, he suddenly saw a place that was different from the other stalls.

The sign read Five Ghost Treasure House.

Lu Yuan looked at this only building in the ghost market. After hesitating for a moment, he directly walked in.

The Five Ghosts would bring in wealth. Even mortals knew of this tale.

For the owner to name his shop such a name, there must be a lot of good things inside.

He should be able to find the materials to refine the ghost artifact that he wanted, the Soul Reaper Rope..
