Chapter 118 An unexpected encounter with an enemy, each with their own ulterior motives.



It's as easy as crushing an ant.

Therefore, it is a blood feud, a feud of humiliation.

However, we should also be grateful to it, because if it hadn't killed Xia Tianqiong, he wouldn't have been reborn with his memories intact.

"My distinguished guest has accepted your compensation."

Manager Hu's tone softened, and he simultaneously deactivated his transformation, turning from a giant red fox into a chubby middle-aged man in the blink of an eye.

It walked up to Leng Tianpeng, took the fruit basket, and then handed it to Xia Tianqiong.

"Esteemed guests, please stay at my residence for the night. Let me do my best to be a good host."

A faint smile appeared on Leng Tianpeng's old face as he extended an invitation to Manager Hu and Xia Tianqiong.

Manager Hu refused outright, saying, "No, we already have a place to stay."

"Then I won't disturb you two any longer."

Leng Tianpeng cupped his hands in greeting again, then left with the resentful young man in white robes.

Xia Tianqiong and Manager Hu did not linger and returned to the restaurant together.

The strange creatures who had placed bets earlier were now wailing incessantly.

The current situation is a draw, with no clear winner. The bookmaker wins all the bets, and everyone who placed a bet loses.

Sister Peach and her dozen or so companions left the gambling square and came to a deserted corner.

They seem to be plotting something.

A bizarre creature with vines for hands and skin as rough as old tree bark exclaimed, "That human is actually a mid-level VIP of the Ghost Realm Bank! Doesn't that mean he's worth billions of ghost money?"

"With so much money, will he buy the orchard on the floating island?"

There was a strange creature nearby with branches growing from its head, and a few walnuts hanging from the branches. When it spoke, the walnuts swayed.

Another eerie male with a large red flower on his head frowned and analyzed, "The spiritual fruit is of great use to both humans and eerie beings. With his wealth, he is very likely to bid for it."

"If he takes a picture of the orchard on the floating island, should we still take action?"

The strange creature with roots-like feet suddenly raised a question, causing all the dozen or so strange creatures present to fall silent.

Their target this time was the Sky Island Orchard, a floating island filled with all kinds of spiritual fruits.

Now a serious problem has suddenly emerged: if that human takes a picture of the Sky Island Orchard, they might not dare to take action.

Leaving aside whether they could defeat Manager Hu, if they were to actually make a move, they would likely offend the Ghost Realm Bank directly.

That is one of the most powerful ancient forces in the Ghost Realm, and no other strange race dares to provoke it.

For a moment, the demons were caught in a dilemma.

Suddenly, all the ghosts turned to look at the alluring Sister Peach, hoping she would make a decision.

Sister Tao wore a brightly colored long dress, with a prominent bust and buttocks, and a voluptuous figure, looking like a woman in her thirties, quite charming.

A cluster of small branches grew from its thick hair, covered with pink peach blossoms, adding to its beauty.

Wherever you go, the air is filled with the fragrance of flowers.

"We must take action, otherwise no one will respect our Tree Demon Clan in the future."

Sister Tao plucked a peach blossom, brought it to her red lips, and slowly chewed it, her eyes gleaming with a sinister light.

A strange question came to it: "Wouldn't that mean we'd offend Manager Hu and the Ghost Bank?"

Sister Peach rolled her eyes at it and said with a coquettish laugh, "Stupid! We can transform into other strange forms, as long as we're not suspected of being the work of our Tree Ghost Clan, that's fine!"

"Sister Tao is indeed clever!"

The group of charlatans immediately beamed with delight and showered him with flattery.

At this moment, in the Leng family mansion, Leng Tianpeng summoned the young man in white robes to a secluded room.

"Manjin, why did you suddenly attack that human?"

The young man in white robes was named Leng Manjin, and he was Leng Tianpeng's only son.

Strange creatures can also reproduce, but in a way that differs from humans, which I won't go into detail here.

"A human being is a VIP customer of the Ghost Realm Bank? I suspect his ghost money is of dubious origin, and it's very likely..."

Leng Manjin didn't continue, but Leng Tianpeng knew what he was going to say.

"You suspect he has mastered forbidden techniques?"

"That's right, otherwise how could a human have so much ghost money?"

The Leng family has been searching for forbidden techniques from the legends of the Ghost Realm for over three thousand years.

Aside from a few perilous locations, we've practically searched every corner of the Ghost Realm, but we still haven't found any clues.

Now that the realm of ghosts has begun to descend upon the human world, its family plans to go to the human world to search, hoping to find something.

I never expected to meet a human today who turned out to be a mid-level VIP at the Ghost Realm Bank, which means he has a net worth of at least tens of billions.

This isn't normal!

None of the major races in the Ghost Realm have this much money, so how could a human possibly have so much?

Unless he possesses the legendary forbidden art that can turn the bizarre into ghost money.

Leng Tianpeng pondered for a moment, then spoke again, "We must detain this person and interrogate him thoroughly, but we cannot offend the Ghost Realm Bank!"

Leng Manjin frowned. "How can we avoid being discovered by Manager Hu?"

"It's simple. A lot of Tree Ghosts have come to the island. We can frame them and make them face the wrath of the Ghost Realm Bank."

"Killing two birds with one stone, brilliant!"

On the other side.

After Xia Tianqiong returned to the restaurant, she kept asking Manager Hu about the Leng family.

He was also planning to do something.

Leng Tianpeng could even hold off Manager Hu, so he must be at least at the Li Gui level. He definitely can't avenge his past life yet.

But at least it can cause some trouble for them, which can be considered as collecting some interest.

It would be even better if we could secretly kill its son.
