“Sir, your food delivery.”
“I… didn’t order it… Oh, thanks.”
Two minutes later. “Sir, wrong delivery. Please return it back to me.”
“I’ve already ea...
Xia Tianqiong was so captivated by the sudden appearance of the alluring woman that he almost lost his composure after just one glance, and quickly looked away.
I thought to myself, this person is much more powerful than Empress Tianmeng!
Seeing that the strange bride was standing still, he figured she was not an enemy.
He whispered inquiringly, "Who is this?"
Before the ghost bride could answer, the woman walked over with cat-like steps and a swaying waist.
Tap tap tap, high heels clapping on the ground, like a runway show.
She stopped in front of Xia Tianqiong and slowly extended her slender hand. "Honorable Mr. Xia, I am Hu Qianjiuyue, the president of Guifu Bank. I have often heard Xiao Hu talk about you and know a little about you. Today we finally meet."
Xia Tianqiong's pupils contracted, and he was quite surprised.
The fact that the other party could hear his telepathic message was quite unexpected, and their identity was also very surprising.
The president of the Ghost Realm Bank, a top figure in the Ghost Realm, recognized him at a glance.
He reached out and shook hands lightly with the other person, replying with two words in a humble yet assertive manner: "Hello."
He intended to shake hands briefly and then let go, but the other person held on tightly, saying, "Mr. Xia, you still have a lot of ghost money and ghost banknotes. Why don't you deposit them all in the bank? Is it because Xiao Hu's service wasn't attentive enough? If you have any complaints, I will deal with him later."
Xia Tianqiong's lips twitched, unsure whether the other person was telling the truth.
In this woman's words, Manager Hu was just a nobody who could be dealt with at any time, but he was actually a cunning and treacherous general!
He smiled calmly and said, "Manager Hu has been very kind to me and has helped me many times. I am very grateful. As for the money I haven't deposited, I'm keeping it for daily use, so I won't trouble your bank."
Fox Qianjiuyue smiled charmingly, about to say something, when she suddenly heard the Ghost Bride snort coldly.
"let go!"
"It seems our bride has finally found her Mr. Right!"
She spoke with a teasing tone, but finally released Xia Tianqiong's hand, and then asked the same question again, "Why didn't you invite me to the ceremony?"
The Bride of Demons spoke in a cold tone, “The first phase of unsealing is meaningless to you. When the second and third phases come, we will naturally notify all the Demon Kings to come over.”
Hu Qianjiuyue nodded, finding the answer somewhat acceptable, but then her smile suddenly vanished.
"Tens of thousands of years have passed. This prison tower cost the Ghost Mansion Bank over 50 million taels of underworld gold, which translates to over 500 billion in underworld currency. Now it's time to settle accounts. How do you plan to repay the money?"
Xia Tianqiong was secretly astonished when she heard this number.
His entire net worth was only a little over two million taels of underworld gold, plus over a hundred billion underworld banknotes. This Wujian Restaurant really spent a lot of money.
The ghost bride suddenly chuckled lightly, "So much money, who can repay it? You knew this very well when you lent out the ghost money, but you still lent it, which means you didn't intend for us to repay it."
Besides, you were only after something; if we return the money to you, you won't get any of the benefits.
Fox Qianjiuyue turned to face the ghost bride, her several fluffy tails waving slowly behind her, as if they were sentient.
Xia Tianqiong glanced at it twice and quietly counted it; there were actually ten black tails.
It wasn't a nine-tailed fox, but a ten-tailed fox.
Hu Qianjiuyue sighed softly, a hint of resentment appearing on her charming face. "If I fail after taking out so much Nether Gold, wouldn't the losses be severe? So you must give me some compensation."
"You want the Prison Tower?"
"Miss Qin is indeed intelligent. If this plan fails, this Wujian Restaurant will be worthless. Why not give it to me?"
“If it really has no value, why would you even look at it? You have no chance. This restaurant has already been given to someone else, and there is a contract that cannot be changed.”
Fox Qianjiuyue's ten tails stopped in unison, and she was also stunned for a moment. "Given to someone else? Could it be that it was given to Mr. Xia? That makes sense. He is not only rich, but he also helped you catch so many strange creatures. It is only right to give it to him."
Xia Tianqiong's heart tightened. She was just worried, and now there was someone who coveted the Wujian Restaurant.
The ghost bride neither admitted nor denied it, but Hu Qianjiuyue's next words enraged her.
"By giving Wujian Restaurant to him, you're essentially giving it to Jun Shisan. What a clever scheme!"
As soon as she finished speaking, wisps of power of rules suddenly appeared around her and began to attack Hu Qianjiuyue.
The ten tails behind her swayed gently, blocking all the power of the rules from the outside, making her look relaxed and effortless.
He then added, "His power over the rules is weakening, and it seems he is about to be reborn into the mortal world."
As she said this, she glanced at Xia Tianqiong with a scrutinizing look in her eyes, "He's much prettier in this life than in the last, and his talent is also quite good. It's a bit of a pity."
"Shut up!"
The ghost bride suddenly roared, unleashing a powerful aura that enveloped Hu Qianjiuyue.
It seemed that if the other party said just one more word, they would immediately take action.
"They have a strong presence; no wonder they were able to turn the tables and take control."
Hu Qianjiuyue didn't care at all, and even raised an eyebrow, her tone full of provocation, "Doesn't your future husband know what fate awaits him?"
Xia Tianqiong then grabbed the Ghost Bride's small hand, squeezed it gently, and then smiled frankly, "I knew all along that I would be devoured by the creator of the forbidden technique."
I only just found out his name is Jun Shisan. The name is quite interesting, but his character is questionable. When I see him, I'll definitely give him a good scolding.
This indifferent attitude caused the ghost bride to feel inexplicably heartbroken, and she lowered her head slightly.
Fox Qianjiuyue on the other side chuckled twice, "Alright, you can say a few words for me then. I've long disliked his arrogant personality."
The ghost bride suddenly lost interest and didn't want to waste time talking. "I'll go prepare for the unsealing ceremony. My lord, you can watch from here."
After saying that, he didn't even look at Hu Qianjiuyue, and simply vanished into thin air.
The power of rules constantly surrounded Hu Qianjiuyue and attacked her, but she was completely unaffected.
Xia Tianqiong squinted as he watched, increasingly surprised. This female bank manager was probably even stronger than the Ghost Bride.
"Am I handsome?"
Hu Qianjiuyue suddenly gave her a flirtatious wink.
Xia Tianqiong pretended not to see and casually asked, "Could you tell me about Jun Shisan?"
Hu Qianjiuyue refused outright, "No, he'll blame me if he finds out."
Are you afraid of him?
"I simply didn't want to offend him because of you."
"In other words, you can't beat him! He can blame you for telling him what happened, but you don't dare to offend him!"
Xia Tianqiong's words startled Hu Qianjiuyue, but she then giggled.
"You're so funny! Hehe, but no matter how much you try to provoke me, I still won't tell you."
As they were talking, a sudden tremor occurred beneath their feet, followed by a rapid change in the surrounding scenery.
