The woman in black, Lady Yan, thought for a mont and said softly, "So that’s how it is."
Before Li Yuan could respond, she continued, "The apparitions on Ghost Street have long noticed .
They’ve approached many tis, wanting to collaborate with them.
They didn’t specify the content of the collaboration, only urging not to act rashly, saying that a more powerful entity would notice .
But I think they’re just afraid I’ll do sothing to disrupt their real plans.
Now I understand, the Emperor, the National Preceptor, the Lianyi House, and the apparitions from Beijiang Prefecture you encountered before - they’re all in it together.
And since the Lotus Sect chose to collaborate with them, they must also be aware of my existence.
So, they’re genuinely afraid I’ll do sothing."
Li Yuan’s eyes flickered with thought, and he suddenly asked, "Sister Yan, how can the Ghost Realm be strengthened?"
The woman in black, Lady Yan, stood up and turned her body, her ominous black robe swirling into a circle of nether hues. "Dear, look, my clothes have changed color.
This indicates that I’ve grown stronger.
Though I’m still the owner of the Twin Ghosts General Store, I’m stronger than when I wore white.
This is because more and more custors have been coming to my store lately.
The more people die here, the stronger I beco.
And due to the image of the Cyan Robe Vendor, the traffic to my shop is quite large every day."
Li Yuan understood the connection between the color of the clothes and the power of evil ghosts.
If "Single Ghost, Twin Ghost, Multiple Ghosts" can be seen as realms, then the color of the clothes represents the sub-levels within each realm.
However, this color change isn’t obvious in a Single Ghost; otherwise, the Cyan Robe Vendor wouldn’t be balanced by the White Robe Feng’Er. But starting from the "Twin Ghost," this hue becos apparent.
The shades from weak to strong are: gray, white, yellow, black, red, and cyan.
Lady Yan’s shift from white to black attire indeed signifies considerable growth in strength.
He chuckled, "Just because you turned the Cyan Robe Vendor into a beauty..."
The woman in black, Lady Yan, said, "Coming here, at least there’s a sliver of hope for survival; going elsewhere, there’s none.
Those kind and benevolent people, I’ll let them leave."
After saying this, she continued, "Letting ghosts kill, the more they kill, the stronger they beco. This is feeding the ghost.
There’s another thod, which is fusion, rging from a Single Ghost to a Twin Ghost, from a Twin Ghost to Multiple Ghosts. This thod of strengthening is faster."
Li Yuan said, "So... they are strengthening the Lianyi House, as well as the ghost realms surrounding Shanbao County."
After pondering for a mont, he added, "The flower shop."
But then imdiately shook his head in uncertainty.
The woman in black, Lady Yan, said, "I understand.
What they fear and dread is actively enhancing myself.
Because I am aware, my existence poses a significant threat to the one from the Lianyi House.
And since the Lotus Sect chose to cooperate with the Emperor, they will find ways to stabilize such threats like .
Until... the one from the Lianyi House can cross over to my realm and devour ."
The couple remained silent for a while, each pondering the possibility at heart.
The convergence of information from both sides made the truth clear.
This was no longer a re possibility but a reality.
The two silently gazed into the distance.
Suddenly, Lady Yan said, "I want to fight."
Her tone grew more determined, even clenching her fists, "I must fight.
They’re not doing this for the suppression of the Ghost Realm, nor for the revival of the Great Zhou.
What they’re after is their own benefit, hiding behind grandiose excuses.
I can’t let my child live in such a world... I will fight."
Li Yuan was sowhat speechless.
In fact, he didn’t take those people’s grandiose excuses seriously, but if the ghost realms of the world needed Great Unity, and his wife didn’t fight, then they would be devoured... This was unavoidable, a fight was inevitable.
And by then, if the ghost realms of the world were to rge into one place, the resultant at Field would surely produce more and stronger High Grade Martial Artists. By then, he couldn’t avoid it either.
Li Yuan sighed softly and asked, "Sister Yan, how do you plan to fight?"
"By rging more Single Ghost realms.
The reason those people haven’t done it should be because they’re concerned about sothing, worrying about sothing, or maybe it’s due to fear of the Ghost Realm going out of control, or so other reason.
But I... don’t have to worry."
Li Yuan nodded, "I understand, so... should we start with the Carpenter’s Shop first?
Sister Yan, you don’t mind having a carpenter in your general store, do you?"
"I don’t mind."
The woman in black, Lady Yan, said, "Then, dear, you go to the Carpenter’s Shop and buy so items, then use them on ."
Li Yuan replied, "The items from the Carpenter’s Shop are all for self-rescue, just like Feng’Er, they can’t be used on you unless..."
He raised his hand, grasping the handle of a wooden door, "The door I open leads to the Carpenter’s Shop."
The woman in black, Lady Yan, said, "Then open it."
Li Yuan suddenly thought of sothing, hesitated for a mont, and said, "Let’s wait a bit."
"Dear?"
"Sister Yan, have you thought about, if you start doing things they don’t want to see, the balance will be broken. They might actively attack you.
For instance, they might send apparitions to hold items from other ghost shops to use against you, leading to attacks from other evil ghosts against you.
With enough attacks, eventually, you’ll get hurt."
"But the number of apparitions isn’t large, each ti they use a ghostly item against , it costs a life.
Moreover, using ghostly items requires ti and conditions; before they can complete the use of an item, I could already kill them."
"So, they might use the most lethal ghostly items against you.
Or, they might target you while you’re rging other single ghost realms, complicating the originally chaotic ghost realm confrontation."
