The Deadly Hitwoman: The Heiress's Special Abilities

Chapter 504: Chapter 504: Ghost Immortal Town, Immortal Tower

When the old man and the little girl arrived at the town, it happened to be the Wu hour, with the sounds of street vendors calling out and the aroma filling the whole street.

This is the only town within a hundred miles, so Ghost Immortal Town is known as a bustling and lively place.

Although the Spirit Cultivation Realm is filled with Spirit Cultivators, there are also ordinary people who have lived here for generations, so towns like this are numerous in the Spirit Cultivation Realm. There is no monarchy in the Spirit Cultivation Realm, and the town’s people often elect a mayor, relying on a certain power. In this way, if they suffer large-scale slaughter, they will have a chance to seek justice.

This also helps maintain peace in the Spirit Cultivation Realm.

Ghost Immortal Town is the closest to the Ghost Realm, so naturally it is affiliated with the Ghost Realm. Although the Ghost Ancestor is notorious for being eccentric, his name is well-known, so few people dare to cause trouble in Ghost Immortal Town. Therefore, Ghost Immortal Town can be considered a prosperous and lively paradise.

Xiao Xue burst with excitement upon seeing all the food in the street.

She kept shouting, ”Grandpa Ghost, Grandpa Ghost, I want to eat that, that fried rice cake! And that, that wonton noodles!”

The Ghost Ancestor, with this little chubby maid hanging around his neck, felt quite helpless. He seldom came to the town before, and most of the town’s people didn’t know him. But since Xiao Xue came to the Ghost Realm, from the time she was two years old and could speak and know to want food, she almost always insisted on coming out once a month. Thus, the town’s people were already familiar with this old and young pair. Plus, Xiao Xue was naturally adorable and astonishingly pretty, so the townsfolk all loved her very much. Whenever they saw her, they never charged her for food and were eager to give her extra to take back.

The Ghost Ancestor leaned on his cane, carrying the little girl towards the stall selling fried rice cakes she pointed at. When they reached the center of the street, he suddenly raised his head, squinting his murky eyes, and looked towards the distant Immortal Tower.

The Immortal Tower is the largest tavern in Ghost Immortal Town, run by a middle-aged woman of Green Flame Level named Qing You. Besides food and performances, her tavern also operates a Spiritual Artifact business. There is a Spiritual Artifact auction every month, where many people bring their Spiritual Artifacts to auction, or to bid for their desired artifact.

In the Spirit Cultivation Realm, there are many such auctions. Qing You has been in the Spiritual Artifact auction business for many years and has gained some fame. With Ghost Immortal Town close to the Ghost Realm, few dare to act presumptuously in this place, so her business is doing well, and masters often bring valuable Spiritual Artifacts here for auction.

Today happens to be one of the monthly auction days. The auction usually lasts two hours, from the We hour to the Shen hour, but typically from the Wu hour, the Immortal Tower is already filled with visitors from all over.

The Ghost Ancestor stood for a long time until the little girl couldn’t help calling him, and he finally came back to his senses, taking the little girl to eat fried rice cakes.

Despite being small, Xiao Xue has a surprisingly large appetite, wanting to eat this and that. When mealtime came around, and people were many, the Ghost Ancestor lost sight of her for a moment, and the little girl disappeared.

Xiao Xue had run off to join the fun.

To Xiao Xue, who was as familiar with Ghost Immortal Town as her own home, she often forgot she hadn’t come out alone. So when she saw many people heading towards the Immortal Tower, she unhesitatingly followed them with her short legs.
