Ghost Catching System

After dealing a harsh blow to the Underworld Deity, the Ghost Dao Sect was thoroughly defeated.

「After that,」

Things became simple.

Following the fall of the Ghost Dao Sect, the dissolution of others was just a matter of time.

When Chu Hao eliminated the Ghost Dao Sect Leader, many disciples heard the news. They began to panic and grow anxious, fearing it wouldn’t be long before they collapsed on their own, even without the Ritian Group making a move.

As for other matters, Chu Hao handed them all to Qin Boren.

However, the wealthy individuals who had prospered under the Ghost Dao Sect were terrified. They had harbored considerable hope that the Ritian Group would take them in, right up until Qin Boren said something.

Qin Boren stated, "Your past actions, leveraging the influence of the Ghost Dao Sect, can be easily investigated. If you don’t want to end up in the Seventh District’s prison, behave yourselves. You are to sell all of your shares after their value has been reduced by ninety percent. This is your only way out."

"Ninety percent? Are you kidding?" a tycoon shrieked. "Ninety percent of all our shares? After we’ve worked so hard to manage them for so long, we’re just supposed to hand them over to the Ritian Group for nothing?"

Qin Boren didn’t reply to him but made a phone call. This was a business card Chu Hao had given him from his last visit to Longxi City, provided by the head of the Seventh District.

Soon, Qin Boren received information about this tycoon.

He said coldly, "Yang Ziwei, you started with theft and smuggling seven years ago. Supported by the Ghost Path, your business grew. Over the years, you had the Ghost Path secretly eliminate your competitors. I know of at least three young women who met a tragic end at your hands."

The tycoon was completely dumbfounded. What kind of organization was this Ritian Group anyway? How could they uncover all the sins he had committed over the years with just a single phone call?

Qin Boren sneered, "Now you have two choices. One, sign away all your equity contracts and take a hundred bucks for a cab to get lost. Two, we hand you over to the Seventh District for processing."

Yang Ziwei screamed, "I choose the first one!"

The Seventh District wasn’t an ordinary police station; it was a highly specialized secret organization with countless ways to ensure his conviction.

Trembling, Yang Ziwei signed all the contracts and left.

However, as soon as he stepped out of the building, he was apprehended by the Seventh District.

Outside the building stood the head of the Seventh District and a group of men and women in plain clothes.

A man with a crew cut asked, "Deputy Director, are we really going to let the Ritian Group take control of Longxi City? The shares and wealthy resources controlled by the Ghost Dao Sect, when combined, are truly formidable."

The head, hands behind his back, said indifferently, "Then tell me, what other options do we have?"

The crew-cut man thought for a moment and said, "I think we can take this opportunity to have Chu Hao join the Seventh District, then..."

Before he could finish, the head waved his hand and said, "Do you think Chu Hao has any reason to join the Seventh District? With his current strength, forget about becoming an AA-rank Demon Slayer; even becoming an S-Level Demon Exorcist might not be out of reach for him."

Those behind him gasped.

A woman in a black uniform exclaimed in surprise, "He could become an S-Level Demon Exorcist? Is that even possible?"

The head scoffed, "Why not? Mad Lion Jiang Yuran was killed by him. It’s best not to entertain any thoughts of subduing him. He is not someone our city-level division can handle. Those who could, would have to be at least at the provincial level."

The crew-cut man said, unwilling to concede, "Then what about the prestige of our Longxi City Seventh District?"

The head sighed, "Xiao Meng, do you know the Anli City Seventh District’s attitude towards Chu Hao? Utterly respectful. And because of the He Tao incident, Chu Hao no longer has any intention of joining the Seventh District. So... don’t overthink it."

The crowd felt helpless.

In the end, more and more people emerged, only to be caught red-handed by the Seventh District and taken away.

"So many people! Even more than last time," said a young woman excitedly.

The Seventh District’s head commented, "It seems the Ghost Dao Sect has been completely wiped out this time."

This time, Chu Hao’s gains were substantial. Not only did he level up, but he also received over three thousand Mana Points and two treasure chests.

Chu Hao rubbed his hands and said, "Open the Golden Treasure Chest."

"DING... Host has obtained Ghost Sutras."

Item: Ghost Sutras

Rarity: ★★

Ability: When used by a Ghost, it can gain one hundred thousand Experience Points per day.

Giving this to Zhao Yun would mean an extra one hundred thousand Experience Points a day, which is pretty good. Definitely better than ten boxes of menstrual pads, right?

Chu Hao rubbed his hands and said, "May the heavens bless me! Give me a Foundation Building Scripture and a Divine Artifact!"

"Open the Semi-Diamond Treasure Chest."

"DING... Congratulations to the Host, you’ve obtained a Sixty Percent Discount Card."

Chu Hao was startled; this was the first time such an item had appeared.

Item: Sixty Percent Discount Card

Function: Used for purchasing items from the System store; all items are sixty percent off (valid for seven days, then disappears automatically).

Chu Hao jumped up, ecstatic, and asked, "Can I really get sixty percent off on all products?"

The System replied, "Yes."

Chu Hao’s eyes reddened as he asked, "System, be honest with me, is there a legendary ninety percent discount card?"

"Yes."

Chu Hao was stunned; such a card actually existed! With everything at a ninety percent discount, one hundred thousand Pretentiousness Points would only cost ten thousand—an eye-popping deal.

The only drawback was that if it wasn’t used within seven days, it would disappear automatically.

Looking at his current Pretentiousness Points, Chu Hao decided to wait a few more days before making any purchases. The more Pretentiousness Points an item required, the more he would save with the discount.

No, I have to earn more Pretentiousness Points in these seven days. I need to enhance my strength!

What Chu Hao yearned for most was to increase his power.

He had no choice; after all, he had offended an Underworld Deity!

Moreover, there was Mysterious Lady Yi Qinglian. Both were titans; if he didn’t hurry to increase his strength, he was likely to be the one to perish.

It was nighttime now, so there was no way to show off.

「The next morning,」

The doorbell rang.

Chu Hao, still groggy, opened his hotel room door to see Liu Qingyan standing outside, dressed in professional attire.

Her white professional attire featured straight-legged pants, her skin appeared smooth and soft, and the V-neck white shirt was especially sensual and charming, making it difficult for one to look away.

Especially with her gold-rimmed glasses, the perfect S-curve of her figure, and her wavy, long hair, she was very eye-catching.

Seeing her first thing in the morning, Chu Hao found it a bit overwhelming and asked, "What’s up?"

Liu Qingyan’s face turned red. Feeling the heat of Chu Hao’s gaze, she found it strangely comforting. She deliberately straightened her posture, further accentuating the stunning curves and contours of her figure.

"Chairman, we spent an entire day and have finally settled matters with those tycoons. Shares worth 790 million, plus total assets of 2.56 billion, are now under the Ritian Group."

Chu Hao waved his hand with an air of nonchalance and said, "You handle these matters. Don’t disturb my sleep."

With that, he closed the door.

Liu Qingyan sighed. She had dressed so beautifully this morning hoping Chu Hao would spare her an extra glance, but... he still paid her no mind. Just what kind of woman would it take to capture your heart, Chu Hao?
