48: Chapter 47: Competing for Favor_1 48: Chapter 47: Competing for Favor_1 The little ghosts still didn’t understand what was going on, and they were all lifted into midair by the King of Souls’ imnse power.
The King of Souls secretly blad Butcher Maxwell for talking too much and started inspecting his soul color first.
Anyone who had ever eaten human flesh would definitely have a crimson blood color in their soul.
Unfortunately, upon checking, Butcher Maxwell’s soul color was a light blue, incredibly, a rare innocent ghost!
King of Souls secretly pouted and tossed Butcher Maxwell to the side.
However, among the hundreds of ghosts in the Ghost Zone, nearly 70-80% of them had crimson colors in their souls!
Owen Bertram coldly glanced at the King of Souls, who shivered and shouted angrily, “A bunch of idiots!”
Ghostly wails were heard one after another, and the ghosts begged in pain, as the King of Souls’ power tore at them, “rcy, my lord.”
The King of Souls tried to show off in front of Owen Bertram, yelling, “I’ve repeatedly stressed the importance of diligently cultivating, and not to do harmful things.
Did you take my words as a joke?”
“Since that’s the case, let your souls scatter!”
“Ah−”
In the midst of waves of screams, one fierce ghost after another was torn apart, their souls scattering instantly.
Those who hadn’t eaten humans, like Butcher Maxwell, shivered in fear and didn’t dare move while lying on the ground.
Most of them didn’t want to eat humans, but their status in the Ghost Zone was too low.
The number of living people they could catch was limited, and it wasn’t their turn to eat them.
In the past, they held grudges for not being able to eat humans, but now, they narrowly avoided disaster because of it.
For example, Butcher Maxwell made a ntal note: From now on, he would focus on slaughtering animals with his skills and never think about using them on humans…
Owen knew that the King of Souls was deliberately showing off in front of him, but he didn’t expose him, saying, “In that case…
I’ll take all of you for now.”
He mainly feared that if he didn’t agree to their proposal, they would beco desperate cornered dogs, and he wouldn’t be able to return to his body.
“However, you must still follow the Code of Law in the future and manage this place properly, don’t cause harm again!”
“If I discover that you are deceitful in any way, I won’t let you off lightly!”
The four souls of the King quickly knelt down and kowtowed, “We will obey the Honored Lord’s decree and will not slack off.”
Owen Bertram nodded, “Hmm, if you do well, I will reward you in the future.”
The four of them were overjoyed, “Thank you, Honored Lord.”
Lord of the Skeleton Sea took a step forward and fawned, “Please advise us on how you want us to develop the realm of ghosts in the future, Honored Lord.”
The King of Souls was enraged by the Lord of the Skeleton Sea’s interruption, cursing him in his heart: What a cunning and despicable person, stealing the opportunity to show off in front of the Honored Lord.
Owen Bertram pondered and said, “Have you ever heard of the Ghost Market?
From now on, you can establish a market here, so that nearby cultivators can exchange their necessities.”
Seizing the opportunity, the King of Souls imdiately delivered a complint, “Honored Lord’s insight is far-reaching and rciful!
There are many different types of cultivators on both sides of the Mob River who dare not show their faces and whose actions are often inconvenient.
Still, they all have a heart for the Great Path.
Your thod will give them hope to continue cultivating…”
Lord of the Skeleton Sea looked at the King of Souls in surprise: You, a fellow with thick eyebrows and big eyes, turn out to be a bootlicker too, even better at this ga than !
Owen Bertram nodded, “For now, arrange things like this.
Manage this place properly, don’t slack off.
I will co to check on you periodically.”
“Yes.”
The Drowned Ghost Princess asked with a sweet smile, “Honored Lord, if I have any doubts in my cultivation in the future and want to consult with you, how will I contact you?”
With her long black straight hair, white dress, and smooth round little face, she looked utterly pitiful.
The other three cursed in their hearts: Shaless fox!
Why don’t you show your true water ghost face?
It would scare a child to tears.
True water hussy!
However, the Drowned Ghost Princess didn’t know that her question had stumped Owen Bertram.
How to contact?
I don’t know either.
He mysteriously said, “If there’s anything, just think about it in your heart, and I’ll sense it.”
King of Souls, Lord of the Skeleton Sea, and Corpse Fiend were all dumbfounded: This divine power…
is incredible!
It’s likely that the Honored Lord has achieved so kind of “divine status”.
On second thought, it’s normal; otherwise, how could he possess Huangquan Power?
“Alright, I’m leaving now.”
Little Loach dived into the water, and the Commander’s Token also disappeared with it.
The four souls of the King knelt down, “Farewell, Honored Lord!”
After waiting for a while and making sure there was no more movent in the water, the four stood up.
Corpse Fiend was particularly angry, spitting out burning saliva at the Drowned Ghost Princess, “Damn you!”
Following suit, the Lord of the Skeleton Sea said, “That’s right, shaless.”
King of Souls also sneered, “We should all be competing on our rits, but you went too far.”
The Drowned Ghost Princess raised her eyebrows, “A bunch of ugly n, just you wait!
When I beco the Honored Lord’s concubine, I will sever your path of fortune!”
King of Souls and the others were choked, feeling wronged, but after so thought…
this wicked woman indeed has a beautiful appearance.
If she throws herself at him shalessly, could the Honored Lord resist?
They say that it’s easier for a woman to chase a man.
“Humph!” King of Souls snorted and left.
He didn’t dare to talk tough again.
The Lord of the Skeleton Sea scattered into a pile of skulls on the ground and rolled away.
Corpse Fiend thought carefully, ca to the Drowned Ghost Princess, and slapped his chest, “I think you can do it.
From now on, I’ll be your backer.”
Drowned Ghost Princess: “…”
King of Souls didn’t continue to sleep, considering the Honored Lord’s command: “How do I set up this Ghost Market?”
…
The next day, after reprimanding Little Loach, Owen Bertram secretly left ho, not going to see Vanessa Thoughts of Shadow since he was completely naked and too embarrassed to see her.
He went to the riverside.
Looking at the spot where the Ghost Zone was last night, the calm waters were now empty.
Owen Bertram shook his head, and Little Loach poked his head out of the water, shaking it back and forth at Owen, who ignored it and went to the Gourd Vine.
Lay off this fellow for a while.
Next, he quickly needed to find a big gourd to hold Little Loach, never letting it stay outside overnight again.
“I need to work on fertilizing so the gourd can grow quickly.”
After taking care of this matter, Owen Bertram returned to the riverside, where Little Loach still looked at him in confusion, feeling that Elder Brother seed to be in a bad mood today.
Why?
It must be Alexia’s fault for upsetting him.
It couldn’t be because of him being so well-behaved and responsible and helping Elder Brother shoulder the family burden.
He decided to treat himself to a big al today as a reward.
