Chapter 32 Long-term Cooperation
"Ghost Talisman" is the name they gave to this batch of exceptionally high-quality talismans to distinguish them from ordinary talismans.
The talisman is very effective, but it is a consumable item after all. In addition to selling it, the Ghost Market also wants to store it internally for their own demons.
However, since they haven't been able to find the artist who created the talisman, they naturally can't extend a collaboration invitation.
Now that this demon has delivered himself to their doorstep and even expressed interest in cooperation, the Ghost Market certainly won't let the opportunity slip by. Upon receiving the news, the leader of the Ghost Market in Ansha Town immediately rushed back from outside, not forgetting to instruct Liu Bing via the communication stone to do his best to entertain the distinguished guest and make sure that the Ghost Market's sincerity was evident.
Liu Bing responded and stood still, looking towards the entrance every now and then, afraid of missing his God of Wealth.
After Su Yu re-entered the Ghost Market, she didn't rush to find Liu Bing. Instead, she wandered around the Ghost Market again, bought a few bottles of basic pills, and evaluated them in her mind.
There are people patrolling the ghost market to maintain order, and there are also two or three hidden and concealed powerful auras in the shadows.
Although customers may argue or haggle at the stalls, there are no fights in the Ghost Market. If there is any tendency to resort to violence, the Ghost Market will immediately issue a warning.
Partnering with the ghost market is feasible.
He quietly walked to the side behind Liu Bing.
"Is it Liu Bing?"
"Who is it?" Liu Bing turned around impatiently and glanced around. Who was so blind as to contact him at this time? Even if it was a pretty girl, she shouldn't interfere with his career at this crucial moment when he was getting promoted and making money.
The familiar pure black mask suddenly appeared in his eyes, making Liu Bing feel a headache coming on.
He quickly broke into a fawning smile: "Oh, you've finally arrived! Come, come, this way please. Our branch manager can't wait to have a chat with you."
"Um... how should I address you?" Liu Bing carefully added.
He had anticipated that the guest would change his identity, since he had seen his real face six times, but who would have thought that he would change his gender so completely!
Is this distinguished guest really a male demon? Could his previous face have been fake too?
Ignoring Liu Bing's surprise and uncertainty, Su Yu, who had already gotten used to the current voice, said gently, "Just call me Fu Gui."
Ghost talisman, talisman ghost.
Upon hearing the word "ghost," Liu Bing burst into laughter. This was the demon destined to cooperate with their Ghost Market.
"Oh, Lord Fu Gui, please follow me."
On the second-floor corridor, a charming woman leaning against the railing and looking down chuckled softly. In an instant, she transformed into a wisp of red mist and disappeared, reappearing in the main seat of the private room, lounging lazily and casually.
"What does the captain think?"
An old, hoarse voice came from the side asking a question.
"Senior Yuan, there's no need to worry. He's a rather interesting kid."
Lin Yi slowly used her magic, and the teapot and teacups on the table automatically positioned themselves according to the direction of her fingertips, pouring tea.
"I think our cooperation will be pleasant."
"If she really is a talisman ghost."
Otherwise, the children would have to pay the price for deceiving the ghost market.
The tea was ready. Lin Yi straightened his posture, revealed a perfect and kind smile, and looked towards the door of the private room.
The door was gently pushed open.
Liu Bing stopped at the door and gestured for Su Yu to enter.
After thanking him, Su Yu slowly entered the house and sat down opposite Lin Yi with ease. She nodded to the woman and the old man in front of her to show her respect: "Good afternoon, sir."
"Oh my, the little one is very polite," Lin Yi picked up his teacup and gestured for Su Yu to drink. "However, we still need to check the goods."
"If it works out, my sister might be willing to give up some of her share!"
Su Yu obediently picked up the teacup and took a small sip, only wetting her lips.
Putting the teacup back in its place, Su Yu took out the categorized talismans from her storage ring and pushed them toward the helmsman.
"Please take a look."
Kids don't seem easy to amuse.
Lin Yi glanced down with a normal mindset, but his eyes widened in surprise.
Although they are basically defensive and offensive talismans commonly used by cultivators, they are low-grade Xuan-level talismans, which are close to the perfect level. Such talismans can even be effective against Nascent Soul stage cultivators.
If this child can draw Xuan-level talismans, could it be that he has already reached the Golden Core stage?
A talisman master with immense potential...
The idea of kidnapping a demon took root in Lin Yi's heart. She exchanged a glance with the senior beside her and instantly made a decision to give up her position to kidnap the demon.
Su Yu pretended not to notice their commotion and asked softly, "What are your thoughts on taking the helm?"
What more could you ask for? It couldn't be more satisfying.
The two parties quickly finalized the details of the deal.
They would purchase talismans from Su Yu at the highest market price for ordinary talismans once a month, with payment made on the spot. During the transaction period, the Ghost Market would protect Su Yu's safety to a certain extent.
He was given a jade bead as a token, which he could crush to seek help from the Ghost Market if he was in mortal danger.
Su Yu controlled the number of talismans sold, so she wasn't afraid of disrupting the market.
The people at the ghost market aren't worried about not being able to sell their goods, since they're known for their high prices but good quality.
The two sides had a pleasant conversation. Lin Yi was in high spirits and wanted to take his sister, Fu Gui, to inspect the Ghost Market, but Su Yu politely declined.
With the matter resolved and the magic stones received, Su Yu quickly took her leave.
On the way out, I encountered... well, a robber.
He hadn't had a chance to remove his girlish disguise yet.
"Boss! It's her! I heard her chatting with that guy Liu Bing, talking about talismans and ghosts. She definitely has a ghost talisman on her!"
"You little vixen, obediently hand over the ghost talisman you're carrying, or you'll end up with something bad instead of something good!"
"Boss... he's asking for trouble."
The demon, addressed as "Big Brother," punched his underling on the head.
"You think you know everything!"
A group of burly men blocked his way; the leader was a peak Golden Core cultivator. He wasn't fully recovered from his injuries and couldn't handle them.
Go back and find some free time to quickly give yourself and Wuxi the healing pills.
Su Yu casually picked up an unknown talisman and threw it at the group of demons. Then she turned and ran, moving with incredible speed, leaping off walls and roof tiles, making full use of the narrow and winding alley.
Su Yu just kept running without paying attention, and for some reason, the group of demons behind her didn't catch up immediately.
"ah!!!"
A heart-wrenching scream came from behind, startling Su Yu so much that she stumbled.
Behind Su Yu, the burly bandit leader, drenched in cold sweat, slumped helplessly to the ground, while one or two henchmen beside him supported their leader with terrified expressions.
The bandit leader roughly grabbed the talisman that had fallen onto his left shoulder, but his abdomen was still swollen high, like that of a pregnant woman who was almost full-term.
His underling was so shocked he was speechless: "Boss, you're pregnant! You guys don't even know how to deliver a baby."
"I'm pregnant with a ghost! Bring that...girl back here!"
"Hey!" The group of henchmen, snapping out of their daze, gave chase.
"Stop right there! Come back here!"
"Don't run!"
Su Yu remained silent, but fled even faster.
The demons behind them were also hot on their heels, refusing to give up even when they were out of breath.
Could there be something wrong with the talisman he threw out?
Forget it, they deserved it for taking his money.
With her eyes darting around the corner to see the building, Su Yu took advantage of the robbers' obstructed view, leaped up, grabbed the second-floor windowsill, and used her waist and abdomen to flip into the house.
After listening for a while under the window and confirming that the robbers hadn't noticed him and had already run across the street, he breathed a sigh of relief, stood up, and prepared to climb out the window to go back to the hotel.
"...Brother," the familiar voice paused, then called out uncertainly, "Sister?"
