The next day.

Si Yun's face darkened as he looked at the young ladies who were constantly entering and exiting the Spirit Hall. It was as if they had heard the news yesterday that Huo Yun'er had come to find them, and these young ladies from the major families were afraid of being a step behind others, so they all came this morning.

Although he does want to have certain connections with the major families, not all families need to go through this method. He still prefers normal negotiations. Moreover, not all of these rich daughters are good-looking. Some of them are ugly and keep trying to get forward. Who can resist this?

It wasn't until the afternoon that Si Yun finally sent these people away. At the same time, Zhang Ping said to these young ladies at the entrance of the Spirit Hall, "Dear ladies, our Lord Saint is very tired today. Please go back first. In addition, if you want to see Lord Saint in the future, please come to the Spirit Hall to register in advance. Lord Saint will meet you at the appointed time."

After Zhang Ping finished speaking, the wealthy women quickly came over and said, "I need an appointment! Please arrange a private meeting between me and the Holy Son as soon as possible."

"Ms. Feng, please calm down." But before she could finish her words, Zhang Ping's voice was drowned out.

"I want to make an appointment too! I want to make an appointment too!"

"And me, too."

...

Looking at the chattering young ladies in front of her, a few blue veins slowly appeared on Zhang Ping's forehead.

"Shut up! No appointments are allowed today! Appointments will be accepted starting tomorrow, and remember to queue up. Anyone who queues up or makes loud noises will be disqualified from making an appointment."

After Zhang Ping finished speaking, the scene immediately became quiet, and then Miss Feng, who was standing at the front, spoke again.

“I wonder when I can start making appointments tomorrow?”

"The reservations will start on time when the Spirit Hall opens."

"We understand."

After that, everyone dispersed.

When he heard the noise at the door fade away, Si Yun breathed a sigh of relief. Now he could finally have some peace and quiet.

"Zhu Qing, I may be very busy from now on and won't have so much time to accompany you." Si Yun said earnestly.

"Are you going to accompany those rich girls? Why? You're obviously in pain when you're with them, so why do you still want to go?"

"Zhuqing, when you grow up, you will realize that there are many things that are beyond your control."

Looking at Si Yun's serious expression, Zhang Ping, who had just returned, wanted to say something but stopped herself. She had just clearly seen that when Si Yun was first surrounded by these rich girls, he was smiling, and that smile was definitely from the heart. Si Yun had never smiled so genuinely before, and it was only because they did quarrel later that he became annoyed.

"Um."

Zhu Zhuqing nodded, not quite understanding what he meant. After seeing Zhu Zhuqing off, Si Yun returned to his room and took out two wooden boxes.

Then the two wooden boxes were opened, and two thin soul bones appeared inside the boxes.

These are the two soul bones that were allocated to me before. One of them is just over ten thousand years old, and the other is about five thousand years old. They are the left leg bone and the skull respectively.

Because the age of these two pieces was too young, Si Yun did not plan to absorb them himself. The soul bones he absorbed had to be at least 50,000 years old. However, these two soul bones were not completely useless. He could take them out and exchange them with others. Moreover, the skull was 10,000 years old, which was not too bad. He should be able to exchange it for a good soul bone.

After observing them carefully, he put the two soul bones back. It would be great if these soul bones could be disassembled. If so, he could use them first and then exchange them for better ones later. However, this was obviously unrealistic.

"Knock, knock, knock."

"It's Senior, right?"

"Yeah, I can come in."

"good."

Soon, Zhang Ping pushed the door open and walked in.

"Have those people been sent away?"

"Well, they've all been sent away."

"Thank you for your hard work, senior."

"It's okay, it's not hard."

"There's one more thing I need your help with."

"you say."

"Help me find the place where underground transactions are conducted in Xingluo City."

"The black market? I know where it is, if you want to go."

"Well, I have some things I want to sell, and I also want to see if there are any good ones."

"Then let's go tonight. The black market in Xingluo City is only open at night."

"Okay, it's going to be dark soon, let's change our clothes first."

"OK."

After saying that, Zhang Ping hurried out. Si Yun didn't know if it was his illusion, but he could clearly see that when Zhang Ping went out, her steps seemed to jump twice, and she looked very happy.

Without thinking too much, Si Yun changed into a pure black suit, then took out a green ghost mask and a red ghost mask. After putting on the green ghost mask, he looked at it in front of the mirror, and it looked quite realistic.

"This red devil mask is for Senior Sister. Mm, it's perfect."

Then he came to Zhang Ping's door and waited quietly for her to come out.

Fortunately, Zhang Ping was very efficient. In just a few minutes, Zhang Ping came out dressed in black.

Zhang Ping is extremely beautiful and has a great figure. After putting on this dress, her good figure is highlighted. Si Yun couldn't help but take a few more glances.

"What's wrong? Why are you in a daze? Let's go." Zhang Ping said in a seemingly happy tone.

"Nothing, it looks pretty good on you, Senior."

"Thank you~" Zhang Ping blushed slightly.

"Here's this for you. After all, we're going to the black market, so we should hide our appearance a little."

"good."

As he said that, he put on the red ghost mask.

Then the two of them walked towards the black market. As they walked, Zhang Ping explained to Si Yun, "During my investigation these past few days, I discovered that Xingluo City doesn't just have one underground trading place. In the west of the city, there's a place called the Ghost Market. That place is the most mixed, with all kinds of people there: nobles, beggars, and commoners.

Then there is the Baiye Restaurant in the south of the city. Although it is a restaurant on the surface, inside the restaurant is a huge trading place. The people who appear in it are basically nobles and the like, and their quality is relatively high. However, you must be introduced by someone to come in.

Then there's Yexuan in the suburbs. Most of the soul masters who appear there are civilians, and the items that appear are relatively common, but occasionally there are some precious treasures. Which one should we go to?"

"Let's go to the Ghost Market in the west of the city first. Although I like the Bai Ye Restaurant the most, I don't have anyone to recommend it to me right now. Anyway, I need to get to know those noble daughters soon. Maybe I can ask them to introduce me to you later."

"Well, okay, then I'll take you to the ghost market."
