Ghost Catching System

Chu Hao stood up. Everyone in the hall rose as well, their blood boiling with passion.

He spoke clearly and loudly, ”The Ritian Group is merely a department. What I’ve established is the Cao Tian Sect, with the goal of expanding throughout the entire world! From now on, you are all members of the Cao Tian Sect. We’ll earn money together and rack up Pretentiousness Points together. Strive for excellence, that’s best. But if there are any traitors, I will not be merciful.”

”Furthermore! I despise the former atmosphere of the underworld. If anyone commits acts that defy morality and reason, they must be eliminated.”

The crowd’s breathing grew ragged. Under Chu Hao’s immense pressure, they all nodded and said, ”Yes.”

With his hands clasped behind his back, Chu Hao sneered, ”Then, from this moment on, the Cao Tian Sect declares war on this underground world!”

”Ding... Host has completed the establishment of the Cao Tian Sect, initial completion of the SS-level task, assessment grade C, earned one million Experience Points.”

”Ding... For completing a task with a C grade assessment, you’ve earned thirty thousand Merit Points.”

”Ding... For completing a task with a C grade assessment, you’ve obtained one Golden Treasure Chest.”

I’ve finally completed the initial stage. The C-grade rewards are quite good.

He opened his attribute interface.

Pretentious Expert: Chu Hao

Level: 6

Experience Points: 6,800,000/7,000,000

Pretentiousness Points: 6,400

Mana Points: 12,000

Merit Points: 60,000

Ghost Servants: Zhao Yun, Confucius, Sadako, Chu Renmei, Jiayeci, Ghost Dragon (Qiu).

Just two hundred thousand more Experience Points for Level 7! Chu Hao’s motivation was unprecedented.

”Open the Golden Treasure Chest.”

”Ding... Congratulations, Host! You’ve obtained 2,000 Pretentiousness Points.”

This luck was already quite good. Why? Because you didn’t unbox a case of Red Dragon—what more could you ask for?

This day, Anli City’s underworld was destined for turmoil. With Chu Hao’s command, everyone sprang into action.

The various factions in Anli City, both large and small, began to be purged.

Additionally, Dong Qi and Liang Qian began to sweep away the evil cults surrounding the city. According to Chu Hao’s decree, anyone with blood on their hands was to be utterly eliminated.

In the Cao Family villa, Cao Hongzhen trembled uncontrollably. He had only just managed to take over the Cao Family’s business after much difficulty, but Chu Hao’s appearance had thrown the entire underworld into disarray.

Furthermore, with Cao Yunxue leading the defection, more than seventy percent of the Cao Family’s power had vanished.

”How could this happen?” Cao Hongzhen roared, furiously smashing items throughout the villa.

”Chu Hao! You forced my hand! I’m going to kill you! I will kill you!” Cao Hongzhen raged.

Cao Hongzhen received a phone call. The anxious voice on the other end exclaimed, ”Director, this is terrible! The Ritian Group has made its move. In just one hour, half of our assets have already defected to them!”

Cao Hongzhen’s veins bulged with rage. ”What?! Those people turned traitor so quickly? The bastards! The Cao Family supported them for so many years!”

The person on the phone hurriedly explained, ”Qin Boren was already formidable. Now, with so many major figures pledging allegiance to the Ritian Group, they’ve united. They can effortlessly wipe out any faction in Anli City. The Cao Family can’t withstand them!”

Cao Hongzhen flew into a rage, yelling and screaming, almost spitting blood in his fury.

Then, the voice on the phone said, ”Chairman, I... I think the Second Miss has made the right choice.”

”Damn it! What do you mean?” Cao Hongzhen bellowed.

The voice on the phone turned cold. ”I intend to defect to the Second Miss. I want to continue surviving in this new order. I hope you can understand.”

With that, the person on the other end hung up.

PFFT! Cao Hongzhen spat out a mouthful of blood, utterly infuriated.

The Cao Family crumbled, collapsing completely in just a few short days.

Turmoil rocked the underworld. The combined might of all the major players not only shocked Anli City but also stunned neighboring powers. Meetings were hastily convened, and intelligence was frantically gathered.

”What in the world is the Ritian Group? Does such a group even exist?”

”They say it only emerged a few days ago.”

In Anli City, the chairman of a publicly listed company was utterly astonished by the report his subordinate presented.

”Too brutal! In just a single day, one-third of Anli City’s factions have been wiped out. In less than three days, Anli City will be completely unified!”

It wasn’t just the underworld that was destabilized. Anli City, home to thousands of companies, large and small, also felt the tremors.

”The Ritian Group has begun acquiring companies of all sizes—film, entertainment, real estate, finance... Damn! They’re so aggressive they’re even targeting internet cafes!”

”Is the Ritian Group aiming for total unification?”

Compared to these overt businesses, the hidden evil cults in Anli City were the most troubled.

Initially, they were dismissive. As long as they could still control the wealthy elite’s funds, they didn’t care what the Ritian Group was doing.

However, the turmoil was far greater than they had anticipated. The Ritian Group began to interfere with their operations. Some cult members even resorted to using evil techniques to assassinate Ritian Group personnel.

As a result, within less than two hours, that cult was completely uprooted and vanished from Anli City.

This terrified all the hidden evil cults, prompting them to frantically investigate the Ritian Group’s origins.

The results left them one by one in stunned silence. Upon discovering that the Ritian Group was led by Dong Qi and the Ghost Princess, they realized that even first-rate powers, let alone their own Third-rate Nine Teachings, stood no chance. They all fled.

In stark contrast to the major upheaval in Anli City, Chu Hao was content to enjoy his leisure. He didn’t need to manage anything; merely being the chairman of the Ritian Group was sufficient.

Three days had passed since the great upheaval.

The establishment of the Ritian Group in Anli City signified the true unification of the city’s underworld.

Yet, this was just the beginning. The next target was Longxi City.

Interestingly, Dong Qi brought news: Longxi City was a crucial financial hub for the Ghost Dao Sect, and the Ghost Path Sect Leader himself was located there.

Hearing about the Ghost Dao Sect, Chu Hao couldn’t help but sneer internally. I recall learning that the true puppeteer behind the Ghost Dao Sect is actually in the Underworld...

Whether it’s the Underworld or not, I’m determined to eradicate this Ghost Dao Sect!

Chu Hao said, ”Since I’m free, let’s pay them a visit.”

At this moment, the Ghost Dao Sect still had no idea that Chu Hao was coming.

In a Longxi City skyscraper, within a sizable company, the office of its wealthy owner—an entrepreneur worth over a hundred million—was currently occupied by a different middle-aged man.

The entrepreneur himself stood respectfully, pouring tea for this man—a sight that would have undoubtedly shocked his employees.

The Ghost Path Sect Leader, with his square face, exuded the bearing of a superior. He was mature and experienced, not resembling a leader of an evil cult, but more like a successful urbanite.

He held a file on the Ritian Group, nodding as he mused aloud, ”This group isn’t bad. It’s just a pity their headquarters is in Anli City.”

The Ghost Path Sect Leader wanted to control the Ritian Group, but the thought of Chu Hao being in Anli City gave him a headache.

This Chu Hao...

Every time he thought of Chu Hao, the Ghost Path Sect Leader felt agitated. He yearned to eliminate the young man, yet feared that failure would completely infuriate his opponent, leading to devastating retribution.

However, soon the Ghost Path Sect Leader smiled.

That esteemed personage is coming to the Yang Realm for an inspection. With their intervention, Chu Hao is as good as dead!

The Ghost Path Sect Leader reclined on the sofa, eagerly awaiting the arrival of this ”esteemed personage,” when his phone rang.

”Leader,” a grave voice reported from the other end of the line, ”the Ritian Group’s vanguard is heading towards Longxi City. A large contingent is on its way.”

The Ghost Path Sect Leader scoffed. ”Bring the Ritian Group’s representative to me. I’d like to see for myself just how audacious these people who call themselves ’Ritian’ truly are.”
