Ghost Catching System

Qin Boren and Liu Qingyan, upon entering, were stunned. They stared, eyes wide with amazement.

Aren’t these two employees of the Sanqing Pavilion?

Holy cow!

Why does it feel so creepy listening to them? These two are genuinely formidable.

I can’t let these two steal the show, Chu Hao thought, or there’ll be no spotlight left for me. With a wave of his hand, he said, ”You have one day to bring the person to me.”

Dong Qi said, ”No need for a day, three hours will suffice.”

The two left. This was their chance to prove themselves.

Qin Boren wiped the cold sweat from his brow and asked, ”Director Chu, who... who are they?”

Chu Hao waved his hand and said with an air of importance, ”For matters that are hard to handle in the future, just go to them. Dealing with those Little Loulous is truly beneath my interest as a Taoist Master.”

”Ding... The host puts on a formidable front, gaining 600 Pretentiousness Points.”

Qin Boren’s eyes bulged. With his years of evaluating people, he knew Dong Qi and Chen Fugui were no ordinary individuals.

So Chu Hao has always been hiding his true strength, he thought. If he really wanted someone dead, a single night would probably suffice.

He’s the real big boss here!

Qin Boren also grew excited, as if envisioning a future of prosperity and glory for the Ritian Group.

「...」

The Moon Bright Hotel had been entirely booked out by affluent individuals from Longxi City, all to curry favor with one particular person.

A middle-aged man with a scar on his face lay comfortably in the hot spring, attended by two beautiful women. He closed his eyes, clearly at ease.

Next to him was a portly tycoon, who respectfully said, ”Master Bu, Qin Boren called. He asked where his people had gone.”

Master Bu answered coldly, ”Killed.”

The women attending him trembled inwardly.

Master Bu looked at the two women and said playfully, ”Don’t worry. Serve me well, and you’ll be handsomely rewarded.”

The two women exchanged glances, began to disrobe, and stepped into the water.

Master Bu laughed heartily as he played with the bodies of the two women.

The portly tycoon forced a smile. ”Master Bu, this is Qin Boren’s territory, after all. Should we really be doing this? Isn’t it... a bit inappropriate?”

Master Bu replied coldly, ”What? Are you scared?”

”Of course not,” the tycoon quickly responded.

Master Bu nodded. ”My main task this time is to help you seize Anli City, laying the foundation for the Ghost Gu Sect’s future supremacy. Deal with Qin Boren tonight. Tomorrow, go all out to acquire his businesses. Eliminate anyone who dares to compete.”

The tycoon was incredibly excited and said, ”Yes, Master Bu, I’ll do as you command.”

Master Bu snorted. ”This is for the Ghost Gu Sect. Later, when your services are required, if you prove disobedient, we’ll have to replace you.”

The portly tycoon broke into a cold sweat.

By ’replace,’ he probably means ’make them disappear.’

Suddenly!

An icy voice sounded, ”Bold indeed. Someone of your caliber thinks you can stir up trouble in Anli City? Aren’t you afraid you won’t make it out alive?”

Master Bu jolted to his feet and looked around, shouting, ”Who’s there? Come out!”

Just then, Dong Qi appeared at the door. He walked in steadily, hands clasped behind his back, his cold gaze fixed on this Master Bu of the Ghost Gu Sect.

The tycoon exclaimed in shock. How did these two get in? What about all the bodyguards outside?

The tycoon yelled, ”Bodyguards! Where are the bodyguards? Damn it, intruders got in and you didn’t even notice! What the hell do I pay you for?”

Two individuals walked in. It was none other than Chen Fugui and the head of the bodyguards.

Chen Fugui sneered. ”This bunch of trash, and they call themselves mercenaries?”

The bodyguard leader was drenched in sweat. All his men outside were crippled. This man was a demon. He alone had taken down all twenty-seven of their fully armed personnel.

The bodyguard leader said with a trembling voice, ”Brother... who... who are you? At least let me die knowing who defeated me.”

Chen Fugui played with the gun in his hand, which belonged to the bodyguard, and said indifferently, ”Colt Mark IV Series 80 pistol. Caliber: 11.43mm. Overall length: 216mm. Total weight: 1.1 kilograms. Magazine capacity: 8 rounds.”

”It’s a good gun. But the one using it... Heh. Did your mercenaries even graduate elementary school?”

As he spoke, Chen Fugui deftly disassembled the pistol. His speed was astonishing; in a mere three seconds, it became a pile of components on the floor.

Chen Fugui said coldly, ”Cao Tian Sect, Pope.”

The bodyguard exclaimed, ”You’re the Pope?”

Finally, my chance to show off! Chen Fugui was thrilled. Ever since he started following Chu Hao, he had longed for people to call him Pope; he truly detested the name Chen Fugui.

Dong Qi gave a faint smile and said, ”Cao Tian Sect, Dong Qi.”

The tycoon was dumbfounded. What in the world was this Cao Tian Sect?

As for Master Bu, hearing Dong Qi’s name left him utterly stunned.

Dong Qi! One of the Protectors of Huaxia’s top Nether Cults! Who wouldn’t know him? Why is he here?

As the saying goes, every field has its own circles. Master Bu certainly knew of Dong Qi. Cold sweat dripped down his face as he swallowed hard and stammered, ”I... I didn’t realize it was you, sir. I’ll leave Anli City immediately!”

Dong Qi said indifferently, ”Put on your clothes and come with me.”

Master Bu was close to crying and pleaded, ”Master Dong Qi, can... can I not go?”

With a wave of his hand, Dong Qi summoned a ghostly butterfly and said ominously, ”What do you think?”

”I’ll go! I’ll go right away!”

Seeing Master Bu so terrified, the tycoon was also aghast.

Inside an office in the skyscraper, several people were brought in. Master Bu and the portly tycoon both wore expressions of terror.

”Sect Master, we’ve brought them,” Chen Fugui reported respectfully.

Master Bu and the tycoon swallowed hard.

They saw Qin Boren and Liu Qingyan standing to one side. Near the large windows, someone was seated in a chair, their back turned to them.

The person slowly swiveled the chair around, revealing a young man with refined features, no older than twenty. Could this young man truly be the chairman of the Ritian Group? they thought in disbelief.

Chu Hao said nonchalantly, ”You’re quite bold, daring to cause trouble on my, Chu Hao’s, territory.”

Master Bu had still been wondering who this person was. But upon hearing the name ’Chu Hao,’ his face drained of color, and he collapsed to the ground in fright, exclaiming, ”You... you’re Chu Hao?!”

”Ding… Host gains 600 Pretentiousness Points for frightening.”

Chu Hao felt inwardly pleased with himself. It seems Brother Hao’s reputation has indeed spread far and wide.

Seeing Master Bu so nervous, the tycoon also asked tensely, ”Master Bu, who is Chu Hao?”

Recently, Chu Hao’s reputation had soared. This was especially true after he killed Jiang Yuran, an Elder of Longhu Mountain, and most notably due to his possession of the True Word Brush.

Master Bu was so terrified that he immediately knelt and begged mournfully, ”Master Chu, I didn’t know it was you! Please, spare my life!”

The tycoon was stunned. Overcome with fear, he also knelt.

Chu Hao said coldly, ”I heard you killed someone from my Ritian Group?”

Master Bu was overwhelmed with regret. He cried out, ”I... I didn’t know they were your men! If I had known, I wouldn’t have dared, not even if I had a hundred times the courage!”

Chu Hao snorted coldly, and the air temperature instantly plummeted. A domineering atmosphere enveloped the room, coupled with his subtle release of Inner Strength. Everyone held their breath.
