It's foreseeable that this won't be the girl's last visit.
She will come back many more times, until she sells everything to this place and falls into utter depravity.
"Baishi City, is this what you call equivalent exchange?"
"Ha, your ultimate goal is that girl's fallen soul, isn't it..."
Huang Yu stared coldly at Bai Sishi.
Bai Sishi shrugged.
"Doing business is all about supply and demand."
"If someone wants to buy, then we'll sell."
"Did I force that girl to sell her conscience? Did I? No, I didn't!"
“The girl wanted to sell it herself; we didn’t force her.”
Chapter 159 Bai Xiao and Liang Ting, the Restrictions of the Ghost Market
"Jie Jie Jie!"
A strange laugh came from Shirashi City:
"Fairness, impartiality, and transparency are the principles that have guided the existence of this immortal city for thousands of years, and are the secret to its survival."
"We will never engage in any form of forced buying or selling!"
"It's all because of human desires."
"As long as human desires exist, the Immortal City will have a reason to exist and will never perish."
Bai Sishi stared at the crowd and sneered, "Can you possibly extinguish the desires in people's hearts?"
"You can't even eliminate your own desires, can you?"
These sophistical words naturally did not affect Huang Yu and the others' minds.
There wasn't even the slightest ripple.
Huang Yu said, "Human desires cannot be eliminated, but that is not a reason for you to tempt people into depravity."
During the conversation, three more clouds of purple mist emerged from the ghost market, and several people walked out from them.
There were emaciated women who wanted to sell their babies in exchange for food to fill their stomachs.
A young man whose family was wiped out by a tyrannical bully sold sixty years of his lifespan to gain immense power and avenge his family.
A wealthy merchant, bankrupted by bureaucrats, sold all his fondest memories to obtain ten thousand silver dollars as working capital.
People come and go from the ghost market in a steady stream, every now and then.
Huang Yu's heart sank; he hadn't expected so many people to be trading with the Ghost Market.
There had never been a single rumor about it before... How did the ghost market manage to do that?
Bai Sishi laughed and said, "These days are really good times. There are many more people coming to Xian City to do business."
"Actually, we are a place of merit. It is because of us that the hungry can survive, those burdened with blood feuds can take revenge, and the bankrupt can make a comeback..."
"To be honest, people should thank the Immortal Market!"
"It is precisely because of the existence of the Immortal Market that they have the opportunity to turn their lives around and experience a different kind of life!"
Ignoring Bai Sishi's words, Huang Yu saw another side of the story.
Chaotic times...
In times of chaos, human life is cheap, and tragic events occur every day. More than 90 percent of the population struggles to survive amidst hunger, war, disease, and exploitation.
It was precisely in this dire situation that the ghost market was able to grow and thrive.
This ghost market isn't a key factor.
The only way to truly address the root cause is to find a way to end the chaos.
Bang!
Another cloud of purple smoke appeared, but the figure that appeared this time made Zhang Jingqing frown.
A bald man with a large, fat body and an ugly face appeared before the crowd.
"Bai Xiao Liang Ting!"
Zhang Jingqing's eyes flashed with a fierce light.
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately realized who this person was.
The infamous villain of Quanxing, Bai Xiao Liang Ting, is a grandmaster with unparalleled skills in both mechanical and talisman techniques. He destroyed the Mo Jin Rou Gu, a member of his own sect!
I didn't expect this guy to know about the ghost market...
How many people in the world are still trading with the ghost market?
"Hey, isn't this Zhang Tianshi?"
"What, you prestigious sects also come to this market to trade?"
"Haha, this really surprised me."
Liang Ting seemed to enjoy the attention from Zhang Jingqing and the others, and walked towards them in a carefree manner.
Zhang Jingqing said coldly, "It's truly my regret that I didn't kill you two years ago."
Liang Ting grinned: "If you want to kill me, you're welcome anytime."
"Master Zhang, you'd better come and kill me soon, otherwise I'll commit even more murders in a while."
"Hehehe! Tell me, when the time comes, will these murders be attributed to me or to you...?"
"Because you didn't come to kill me in time."
Zhang Jingqing's face darkened, and crackling lightning erupted from her body.
Seeing this, Liang Ting laughed even more wildly.
happy!
Cool!
Huang Yu looked at Liang Ting indifferently, as if he were looking at a dead man.
Liang Ting was considered the most notorious villain in the Quanxing sect, and now it seems that his reputation was well-deserved.
He deserves to be killed.
Shirashi interrupted the conversation.
"Mr. Liang, what are you here to trade this time?"
"Same old routine, let's have another exhilarating feeling!"
Liang Ting took out a purple crystal ball from his pocket and tossed it to Bai Sishi.
"Here, fifty souls."
"This time I want a completely different kind of exhilaration than last time!"
"As long as I feel good, the next deal is easy to discuss!"
Bai Si patted his chest: "As you wish, sir."
"Wait a minute," Zhang Jingqing said in a deep voice, "You just said you wanted to exchange the souls of fifty living people for pleasure?"
Liang Ting turned his head and looked over, as if he had discovered something interesting.
"Hehehe! What, is that not allowed?"
“I’ve traded here several times already. These people have a good reputation; they haven’t raised the price for me.”
Huang Yu looked at Bai Si City and asked, "Do you also collect other people's souls?"
Bai Sishi laughed:
"Of course, in fact, anything you can control is considered your property and can be the price of a transaction."
"Slaves, children, human lives, souls..."
"If you don't want to exchange your own things, you can exchange other people's things."
These words definitively confirmed the darkness of this space.
Huang Yu and the others have decided that this evil spirit must be killed.
Otherwise, if it continues to develop, who knows what kind of disaster it will become.
Shirashi didn't seem to care about the reactions of the others.
"Four guests, you don't have much time left in the Immortal Market."
"If needed, lighting a soul candle will allow you to enter this celestial market."
"The method for making soul candles will be sent directly to your memories later."
"Remember, don't try to reveal the existence of the Immortal City after you leave."
"Hmph, it's fine if you want to reveal it, you're welcome to try."
Before Huang Yu could speak, time and space began to fold, and the scene of the ghost market gradually blurred...
Soon, Huang Yu and the others returned to the real world.
They exchanged a glance, and Huang Yu was about to discuss the existence of the Ghost Market, but found that he couldn't bring himself to say it.
The others were also startled and noticed the anomaly.
Forbidden!
The Ghost Market placed a prohibition on each of them, forbidding them from revealing any information about the Ghost Market.
Huang Yu suddenly realized why there was no information about the Ghost Market circulating in the world.
Logically speaking, such a magical place should have been known throughout the country long ago.
Now I understand, it's because of the existence of this restriction.
