Zhao Zilong’s Silver Spear stabbed out like a torrential downpour. The Ghost Samurai didn’t even have ti to scream before it turned to ash and vanished—a complete waste of space.
"DING... Zhao Yun has killed a Ghost Samurai, earning 200,000 Experience Points. The Host has gained 100,000 Experience Points."
Damn! The Experience Points were halved again. Wasn’t it supposed to be over a million before they got halved?
Chu Hao imdiately questioned the System, "System, clarify this. Did you swallow my Experience Points?"
The System replied, "Host, you’re an idiot. Stop slandering the System, or I won’t sell you any items."
Chu Hao was speechless.
The System is certainly powerful; I’ll endure it this ti.
The System explained, "Zhao Yun is a powerful Ghost General. No matter how many Experience Points he obtains, the amount given to the Host will be halved. The more Experience Points gained, the more that will be deducted."
So that’s how it is! If there wasn’t a limit, wouldn’t it be possible to level up just by using Zhao Yun? He knew that when looking at Zhao Yun’s combat power with the Devil Mask, it was 10,000 combat points. This was higher than both Diao Chan and himself, unless he equipped the Night Demon Blade and transford into the Night Demon Person, reaching a combat power of 12,000. But his impressive 12,000 combat power could only last for 20 seconds—a complete weakling.
Chu Hao then turned to look at He Min. She stood there dumbstruck, her eyes nearly bulging out of her head.
Chu Hao walked over and slapped her across the face.
"Bitch."
He Min fell to the ground, looking at Chu Hao with terror.
Ankang Mo reacted quickly as well, having already collected the guns from the three of them, chuckling rrily.
Chu Hao showed them no politeness. The one with the severed hand was particularly unlucky; Chu Hao kicked him, sending him flying three ters away, writhing in agony.
That’ll teach you to show off! So satisfying.
Chu Hao said coldly, "Speak. Who are you? And what is this place?"
He Min’s mind was in complete disarray. She had initially thought she had everything under control. But Chu Hao’s sudden display of divine might, dealing with them as if they were no more than stray cats or dogs—Could an ordinary person possess such skills?
"You! How is this possible? Who are you... who?" He Min trembled all over, fear reaching its peak.
Not this question again!
Chu Hao waved his hand, his presence commanding. Looking down at the woman, he said coldly, "I am Chu Hao."
Shocking, right? Surprised, right? Wary, right? Scared, right? Nowadays, who doesn’t know my great na, Chu Hao? Saying it aloud should scare you to death!
He Min took a deep breath and said, "I... I’ve never heard of you."
Chu Hao’s face showed embarrassnt; his attempt to impress had failed.
Chu Hao played with the gun; it was his first ti holding one. He said indifferently, "No matter, you’ll soon know who I am."
He pointed the gun at the woman and asked, "Who are you?"
He Min lowered her head and said, "Even if I told you, you wouldn’t know."
"Don’t think I won’t hit you just because you’re a woman."
Chu Hao fired the gun, hitting her left shoulder. The sound of the gunshot echoed, and all was silent around them.
"ARGH!" He Min scread. Ankang Mo and the old driver examiner both winced as Chu Hao actually fired the gun.
He Min clutched her left shoulder, in extre pain, blood gushing out like a spring as she looked at Chu Hao in horror.
Chu Hao looked at the gun in surprise and said, "No wonder so many people like guns; they really are powerful. I’ll ask you one more ti. If you don’t answer, the next shot will be in your forehead."
He Min trembled and said, "We... we are from the He Family."
Chu Hao was startled and asked, "The He Family of Huaxia’s Nine Gates?"
He Min was surprised and said, "You know?"
Her counter-question was astoundingly foolish. Chu Hao was clearly no ordinary person, so it was perfectly normal for him to know about the He Family.
Chu Hao laughed. A mber of the He Family, and she actually doesn’t know Brother Hao?
It wasn’t He Min’s fault, though. She didn’t have much to do with He Tao and was one of the core mbers of the He Family, akin to a highly-trained expert cultivated by the family. The He Family secretly trained these people to search for things outside that would benefit the family. Be it grave robbing or killing, as long as it was for the sake of the family, they would often do it.
Chu Hao said, "Tell , what exactly is going on here?"
Enduring the pain, He Min’s gaze darted around evasively as she said, "I... I’m not too sure myself. We found a mysterious location ntioned in an ancient text. People who went there either died or disappeared, so we thought it was very mysterious and ca to investigate."
"Later, after uncovering the strangeness of this place, we investigated for three whole months before deciding to co and have a look."
Chu Hao’s expression turned cold. He walked over to the man whose arm had been severed and shot him in the remaining stump.
"ARGHH!" The man, already having lost a lot of blood, now took another bullet, the pain nearly knocking him unconscious.
"Not talking, are you? This Taoist Master will find out sooner or later anyway. If that’s the case, you lot are of no use anymore."
Chu Hao pointed the gun at the head of the man in black.
He... he would really shoot! The man was certain.
In agony, the man cried out, "He... He Min, tell him... quickly tell him!"
Startled, He Min said, "Don’t shoot, I’ll talk!"
Only then did Chu Hao lower his gun. He said coldly, "And here I was thinking you were as tough as Mulan. Out with it! What’s really going on here?"
He Min slowly said, "It’s an ancient text. It ntions a mysterious passage here, created by extraordinary beings during the Ancient Tis."
Created by extraordinary beings? Didn’t that imply that a place like this was on par with institutions like the Ghost Office or the Ghost School?
Chu Hao asked, "Where is that ancient text?"
He Min quickly replied, "It’s not on , I’m not lying to you."
This ti, it wasn’t a lie.
Chu Hao stroked his chin and said, "Continue."
He Min continued, "According to the ancient text, at the birth of the world, the Shanhai Monsters road the earth. However... when a world-threatening disaster occurred, so extraordinary beings couldn’t bear to see all creatures perish, so they created a Folded Space as a refuge for the Shanhai Monsters."
The Shanhai Monsters again. The Transford Snake and Baxia were both considered Shanhai Monsters. They were powerful; he had experienced that firsthand. With his current strength, if he encountered a slightly more formidable one, he might even be chased down.
All of a sudden, Chu Hao thought of a certain Shanhai Monster ntioned in the Ancient Desolate Scripture: Mist. Whenever Mist appears, it fogs up the area, usually concealing itself within the fog. Moreover, Mist has a very strange ability: it can control ti for short durations. Previously, the figures in the fog turned that sharp curve into a deathtrap. Could it be the Shanhai Monster, Mist?!
Chu Hao instructed, "Keep an eye on her."
Ankang Mo and the examiner nodded quickly, aiming their guns at He Min and the man in black. The tables had turned, and they were imnsely pleased.
Chu Hao eyed the Yin Yang Ring in his hand. This ring is practically useless now, he thought. It can’t even detect sowhat more powerful demons and ghosts; it doesn’t show even a hint of Monster Qi.
"System, purchase the Hundred Percent Ghost-seeing Talisman."
"DING... Host has purchased the Hundred Percent Ghost-seeing Talisman, consuming 100 Show-off Points."
The Hundred Percent Ghost-seeing Talisman. This thing is supposed to let you see ghosts one hundred percent of the ti. The talisman paper burned, but there was still no activity.
He Min was shocked. She hadn’t seen it coming that Chu Hao was also versed in the art of talismans, especially when he clearly had such a powerful Ghost General at his command. All she could think was that this man was truly terrifying. How laughable that they had even threatened him!
