Looking at the room full of gold, Shu Li couldn't help but sigh.

There are differences between people. Look at how those strange creatures treat Su Luo, and then look at their attitude towards the Spark Society. Can you compare them? No, you can't.

With just one move of issuing a bounty, all the high-ranking officials in the entire Bailing City were terrified. One by one, they wanted to send the best things to Su Luo. Houses, treasures, pets, everything imaginable was offered. They even sent a lot of things that they didn't know how to use.

Su Luo was quite satisfied with this. At the same time, she took this opportunity to acquire a large number of lonely ghosts and some low-level monsters, and packed them all up and sent them back to her Luo Wang City.

'Ding! The system has detected that the host possesses 7,000 wandering ghosts, 10 or more one-star ghosts, 5 or more two-star ghosts, 3 four-star ghosts, and 1 five-star ghost. Total points awarded: 120,000. Titles obtained: Great Ghost Village, Ghost Town, Small Ghost City, Remote Ghost City. Activate?'

"yes."

'Congratulations, host, on activating the titles: Great Ghost Village, Ghost Town, Small Ghost City, Remote Ghost City. Rewards include: Resisting one large-scale attack each from two-star, three-star, four-star, five-star, and six-star ghosts; and receiving one counter-attack equipment bonus, guaranteeing 100% counter-attack power against ghosts of six stars or lower (including six stars).'

'You have acquired one set of Ghost Market themed clothing, one set of simple white clothing, one set of thrilling ghost movie themed clothing, one set of Chinese horror ghost marriage themed clothing, and one set of urban legend themed clothing. These styles can be installed and changed at the host's discretion.'

'Ding! Congratulations, host, on advancing to the Ghost City realm! You are granted one free opportunity to advance to a higher skill level (limited to your contracted ghost creatures). Do you wish to advance immediately?'

...

Looking at the series of rewards, especially the last one, Su Luo fell into deep thought.

From the small ghost village to the ghost city, Bailing Main City has brought her a great deal of gains this time. If she had been quicker, she might have been able to complete her mission soon and return to the apocalypse with a full harvest.

Although the Abyss is nice, I've been missing home a bit these past few days. I wonder how the apocalypse is going, and whether those monsters are turning the house upside down.

As for this skill upgrade...

To be honest, if Su Luo really had to choose, she would somewhat like to choose Lin Shuyu.

She had been craving Lin Shuyu's powerful offensive skills for a long time. These flashy, magic-like skills that directly involved combat looked incredibly cool and would amaze everyone when used.

Although the [Time] domain is also very powerful, it lacks some visual effects when used. Apart from things within the domain, other people's experience is definitely not as good.

Unfortunately, you can only choose from the contracted artifacts.

Aside from Painted Skin, the remaining characters—Gourmet, Fortune, Congratulations, Su Meiren, Brainy Brother, Book Maniac, and Claude—don't seem to be particularly adept at direct attacks.

With that in mind, Su Luo decided to hold off for now and wait until he had the right skills or needed a specific skill area before using this free opportunity.

'Knock knock knock.'

Just as Su Luo withdrew his divine sense, a polite knock came from outside the door.

"Lord Su, there is a strange creature outside named Zhao who claims to be your friend and wants to see you."

A strange creature surnamed Zhao.

It was him.

They've arrived.

Upon hearing this, Su Luo nodded calmly, as if he had expected it, and said, "Let him come up."

Outside the Golden Cave.

Zhao Jinlai rushed over from Muhuai Main City. As soon as he entered Bailing Main City, he heard all sorts of legends about the divine doctor Su. Each one was more outrageous than the last. They were even being told in teahouses and restaurants and were being written into books. They were so profound and mysterious that even novels wouldn't dare to write like that.

Touching his own fat, Zhao Jinlai couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

As expected of Su Luo, the City Lord of Luo, she's truly different. Wherever she goes, she can stir up a storm of bloodshed. I was worried before that she wasn't doing well in the Abyss, but now it seems I was just overthinking it!

They're not doing badly at all; they're even doing better than them. Who knows who will protect whom in the end?

They even issued a bounty, wiping out the entire Hong family overnight. Tsk tsk, how ruthless! Luckily, they weren't enemies, at least not for now.

Looking at the magnificent golden cave in front of him, Zhao Jinlai gasped in astonishment.

Because Mu Huai Main City is not close to Bai Ling Main City, and there is a Holy Domain Main City in between, he had hardly ever been to Bai Ling Main City before. Instead, he chose to spend his time in the Holy Domain Main City or the Divine Capital Main City, which are closer to Mu Huai Main City. He had only heard of the Golden Cave.

Seeing it with my own eyes now, it is truly magnificent, even more majestic and splendid than the rumors described.

"Hello, esteemed Mr. Zhao, Lord Su is waiting for you on the top floor. Please follow me."

Zhao Jinlai nodded upon hearing this, and somewhat awkwardly followed the attendant into an elevator decorated like a haunted house, which rattled and clattered as it went upstairs.

Only after seeing the familiar figure of Lord Luo in the only room on the top floor did he feel a little relieved.

Although the Lord of Luo City in front of him was a young man, it did not affect Zhao Jinlai's judgment.

"Lord Luo, we've finally found you, Lord Luo!"

"Lord Luo, how is your stay in the Abyss? If you're not satisfied, you can come to my main city, Mu Huai. Our Zhao family has some influence there, so we'll try our best to accommodate your needs!"

"I knew Lord Luo was no ordinary man. In just a few days, he took over the Golden Cave. This is a famous place in the Abyss, with countless riches inside. Only Lord Luo could do that. Others probably don't even have the ability!"

Zhao Jinlai showered him with compliments first. He had originally come to find Su Luo, but after entering the Abyss, the talisman he had given him suddenly became ineffective, as if something was blocking his senses. If Su Luo hadn't caused such a commotion in Red Leaf and Hundred Spirits City, he might not have been able to find Su Luo so quickly.

In truth, it was his dereliction of duty. Upon meeting, he naturally showered her with praise. As the saying goes, one doesn't hit a smiling face. If Lord Luo really did blame her, the punishment would be lighter.

At some point, Zhao Jinlai had completely come to regard Su Luo as his leader or even his boss.

If before, people might have minded Su Luo's human identity, now, to hell with identity! With Su Luo's incredible connections, who cares about being human or not!

There's a saying that goes, "When you're working away from home, who cares if your boss is male or female? As long as he pays you a salary, a really big salary, then nothing else matters, even if the boss is a transvestite, it doesn't matter!"

Facing Zhao Jinlai's simultaneous attacks, Su Luo remained calm and composed. She went from being somewhat embarrassed at the beginning to being fearless now. Anyway, as long as she wasn't embarrassed, it was others who were embarrassed. Oh no, don't be silly.

'Knock knock knock.'

"Su...Master, where's your milk tea...?"
