Chapter 282: Chapter 202: Have I Become the Illegitimate Child of Fengdu Ghost Emperor? _3
Even if you set it up to be super realistic, the scene can’t scare spirits in the slightest.
A man and a ghost shared an intimate moment in the basement before emerging.
Xu Yang said: “Madam, you should send people to the busiest places in the market to advertise. Announce that our ghost house is opening its doors with rewards for all. Any brave souls who dare to venture into our ghost house, regardless of success or failure, will be rewarded with 10 billion pieces of netherworld currency!”
“On top of that, if anyone can last 10 minutes in the ghost house, they will receive an additional reward of 10 billion. If they last 20 minutes, they’ll get 20 billion; 40 billion for 30 minutes, and so on. Anyone who can last an hour in the ghost house can walk away with a 500 billion cash prize, which I will personally convert and hand over!”
“Also…”
“Since today is our opening, let’s hold a lottery event. Everyone who can endure for 10 minutes in the ghost house will qualify for a prize drawing…the highest prize is a cash reward of one trillion. Every additional 10 minutes endured results in one more chance to win.”
Yue Qiluo was shocked, she said, “Husband, isn’t this too much? It’s already great that we aren’t charging for the ghost house, if we have to pay out…how will we profit?”
“This Xi Xia Ghost Market is now our ghost market, and the spirits in the market are essentially our citizens.”
Xu Yang replied: “I see many spirits living in abject poverty, neglected by their descendants, who haven’t given offerings for years… This ghost house is our way of providing welfare to our citizens.”
Soon.
A group of underworld soldiers made their way onto the streets, starting a publicity campaign.
The news was like a bombshell. Spirits surged toward the ghost house like mad, leaving the martial world figures who had sneaked into the ghost market dumbfounded…
“Wait…Did I hear that right?”
“Xu Yang, the Northwest Hammer King, has opened a ghost house in the ghost market?”
II II
A few of the martial world figures who came in a group were taken aback. They looked at each other for a long time before saying, “Who’d think to open a ghost house in the ghost market? That’s some out-of-the-box thinking!” “People say that Xu Yang, the Northwest Hammer King’s reputation in the supernatural world is terrible. He often does things that normal people can’t comprehend. I initially thought he just hated Yin spirits and malevolent beings, but now… I think the guy might be a bit nuts!”
“We’ve got to admit, the fact that the Northwest Hammer King could make a name for himself in the ghost market, and even dare to explode his identity to do business, does show some ability. Should we go check it out?”
A few of the martial people, wearing masks and concealing their energies, made their way towards the ghost house.
Outside the ghost house.
Yue Qiluo has arranged many underworld soldiers to maintain order.
Ma Long was among them.
At this moment, he was full of pride with the underworld soldiers obeying his commands. They dared not deviate from his orders.
He crossed his legs and sat on a chair, while two young female ghosts massaged his arms and back.
Ma Long pointed at the queue of spirits and scolded: “Slow down, what’s the rush… One by one, if any stampede happens, we’re not responsible!”
“Huh?”
Suddenly, Ma Long pointed with his hand and said, “You, you, you…and you!”
“Yes, you five masked men…come here!”
A group of underworld soldiers immediately stepped forward and brought the five martial world figures over.
The five martial-world figures didn’t know Ma Long. Seeing the formation of the underworld soldiers behind him and the female ghosts massaging him, they thought he was a high-ranking official in the ghost market and hurriedly bowed and said, “Sir, what do you need us for?”
Ma Long looked at the five people and leisurely said: “You all are still alive, right? Our ghost house isn’t open to the living!”
