Working: Start by earning the boss a hundred million!

Chapter 93 Account
Xiao Wang nodded, but who knew that they would be ambushed as soon as they entered the mountains, ambushed by a horde of monsters. Boss Shen was right, this place really is a no-man's-land.

However, the forest was much quieter at the moment. Perhaps it was because it was stunned by Shang Xingjian's showy actions, or perhaps it was because of the heavy casualties. At least for now, nothing was causing trouble.

Cheng Mai followed Shang Xingjian, and seeing Xiao Wang walking so cautiously, she couldn't help but ask, "Are you afraid of ghosts?"

"Of course I'm scared." If Xiao Wang weren't so timid, she really wanted to drag the boss away.

Cheng Mai: "Aren't you a ghost?"

Xiao Wang: "You're a human, so you're afraid of people too, right? I'm a ghost, so I can't be afraid of ghosts?"

Cheng Mai sighed, finding himself unable to refute the statement; it did indeed make sense.

The further they went, the more eerie it felt. Cheng Mai stepped on a tree branch, which creaked. Just as she was about to look down, Shang Xingjian grabbed her arm and covered her eyes, saying, "Keep going forward."

Cheng Mai's vision suddenly went black, and he seemed to be stepping on tree branches with every step.
Little Wang screamed and practically hopped as he walked.

This mountain is covered with bones, piles upon piles of bones.

terrible!

Before Xiao Wang's scream had even subsided, Shang Xingjian gave him a warning look. Xiao Wang immediately covered his mouth, sobbing, "Waaah, I'm scared too! Why is the boss treating me differently?"

When Xiao Wang uttered her first cry, Cheng Mai had a premonition that what she stepped on was not a tree branch.

Once they reached a flat area, Shang Xingjian released the person and immediately cast a spell.

"Green hills bury loyal bones, souls return to heaven and earth, break!"

A golden light pierced the sky, and moonlight broke through the darkness, scattering down.

Xiao Wang stared in disbelief. All purified?

An entire mountain?
"What kind of ghost are you? Come out and see me." Shang Xingjian stood under the moonlight, his voice not loud, but enough to echo throughout the entire mountain range.

A gust of wind rose in the mountains and forests, rustling softly.

Cheng Mai was blinded by the wind, and Shang Xingjian raised his hand to shield her from it.

"Where did this fearless brat come from? This is not a place for you to run wild."

A violent tremor came from beneath my feet, each step feeling as if something a thousand pounds was crashing onto the ground.

Cheng Mai looked in the direction of the sound, and the enormous creature gradually came into view.

It was a giant hairy gorilla, like King Kong.

Cheng Mai had to crane his neck to see its head.

The woolly gorilla had a foul, fishy smell, unlike a normal stench; it smelled more like the stench of something rotting after death.

The long-haired gorilla looked down at Shang Xingjian and the others, "It's you, human..."

"You bastard." Before the long-haired gorilla could finish speaking, Shang Xingjian slapped him to the ground. "I hate being looked down upon, especially by someone like you."

The long-haired chimpanzee had ruled these mountains for centuries and had never suffered such injustice, so after struggling and roaring, he suddenly burst into tears.

Cheng Mai: "..." Isn't this outrageous?
You're a ferocious beast, okay?! What are you crying for?!
"If you cry again, I'll break your grave." Shang Xingjian threatened calmly.

The wailing stopped abruptly, and the chimpanzee, forced to lie on the ground, stared at Shang Xingjian.

Cheng Mai was stunned. "He's the Thousand-Year Ghost King?"

It turned out to be a gorilla, not a person.

"Who told you to lure them here? Who arranged for those monsters in the mountains?" Shang Xingjian could clearly see that this behemoth was nothing more than a brainless target.

"Cloud City is our territory. Your software is making such a big fuss because you broke the rules first," the gorilla roared.

"Rules? Who made the rules? And what rules are they?" Shang Xingjian looked down at the gorilla. "The rules are with me. Whatever I say the rules are, that's what the rules are."

The chimpanzee wanted to say something, but Shang Xingjian didn't give her much of a chance, shattering its soul with a single blow.

Cheng Mai: "!!!"

They killed him without asking anything?
Cheng Mai looked at Xiao Wang, "A thousand years, the Ghost King?"

Xiao Wang: "The boss is not just a thousand years old."

"You just killed it like that? Without asking any questions?"

Shang Xingjian killed the chimpanzee. "Usually, these brainless big guys are just out there to die. They don't have anything important in their heads, so it's not worth wasting time on them."

Shang Xingjian continued walking forward, "The Thousand-Year Ghost King, the lie they were told, only these two actually believed it."

Shen Luo, who was hanging on Cheng Mai's button, called out, as if refuting her boss's words.

Xiao Wang opened his mouth, wanting to refute, but he didn't dare, after all, he wasn't raised by the boss.

"How's the signal here?" This question was directed at Xiao Wang.

Xiao Wang immediately replied, "The signal is so-so. It's rare for people to build signal towers in such deep mountains and forests. But if we were to build one ourselves, it would be difficult."

"What level of difficulty?" Cheng Mai roughly understood what Shang Xingjian meant; he wanted to build a signal tower, a signal tower for the spirit world. "And the money?"

Xiao Wang shook his head. "This is not something that money can solve. As I said before, the network and signal towers are not the same system. We do have talent in this area, but we are not sure if the way we build them is suitable for us. So the problem is huge, probably as difficult as when we built the atomic bomb."

“There are some monsters in Yuncheng who are skilled in lightning and digging. We can consider making Yuncheng the headquarters of the signal tower. You can discuss the specifics with Shen Luo later.” Shang Xingjian continued walking forward, seemingly inspecting his business territory.

"Boss, are we going to snatch someone from the underworld again?" Xiao Wang felt that every underworld should have blacklisted them by now, but they hadn't done it yet only because they were afraid to.

"Asking for a human is not very meaningful. There is a creature in the demon realm called the cicada, which is naturally good at learning. Finding her will solve this problem." To be precise, asking for a ghost is not very meaningful. Ghosts need to be reincarnated, which will happen in the next tens of millions of years. It is not enough to have only a few years left.

"So, the mountains of Yuncheng will be one of the dividing points in the future?" She remembered that Shang Xingjian had said before that the human world and the spirit world would inevitably be separated in the future, otherwise they might face annihilation.

"It is."

Xiao Wang was following them, and he was listening to every word they said, but why did he suddenly not understand?
What are they talking about?
"To plan for the future so brazenly in my own territory, isn't that a blatant disregard for me?" A deep voice boomed, accompanied by swirling black mist.

Cheng Mai: "Isn't it the vanguard who's here?"

Compared to the previous one, this one is truly a deterrent to the dark forces; she could clearly and distinctly sense it.
