8:20 PM.
Lin Yu was successfully dropped off at a KFC one street away from Ghost Market Street.
The speed of the "Fishnet Knight" rivaled that of a racing car—riding with her wasn't for the faint-hearted.
When he first got on the bike, Lin Yu had been entertaining some thoughts.
With such a close and intimate posture, would moving his hands a little be too much?
However.
Once the motorcycle transformed into a blur, Lin Yu didn’t dare move an inch.
The slightest distraction could make Xia Yiwei lose focus.
And the two of them might end up reenacting a tragic scene from A Lang’s Story on the bustling highway.
Lin Yu didn’t want Xia Yiwei to know about his plans to visit Ghost Market Street to find Shen Buyao.
That’s why.
He had her drop him off on the neighboring street.
Xia Yiwei turned out to be more understanding than expected.
Once they arrived, she simply waved, revved the engine with an "Ong!" and sped off.
She didn’t even ask what Lin Yu was doing there.
Which saved him the trouble of making up an excuse.
Ghost Market wouldn’t open for a while yet.
With nowhere urgent to go, Lin Yu decided to wait inside KFC.
After ordering a Coke and some fries,
he found an empty table and sat down.
The series of missions from morning till night had been incredibly rewarding.
[Sect Contribution Points: 1,250]
[Free Draw Chances: 4]
Combined.
That made a total of ten draw opportunities.
Too bad he hadn’t managed to relocate the cat tonight.
Otherwise, the numbers would’ve been even higher.
Having experienced the thrill of a five-draw streak, this time he was about to enjoy double the fun.
Lin Yu entered the draw interface and swiftly initiated the process.
[Ding!]
[Congratulations, Host! A 10-draw has been activated, with an additional free draw as a bonus!]
Oh-ho?
The system always knew how to make good moments even better.
These little surprises could definitely be more frequent.
Eleven needles spun rapidly on the massive prize wheel.
Soon.
A long list of rewards appeared in the system log.

……
Looking at the massive list of rewards,
Lin Yu once again felt like he owned the world.
The more he drew, the more overpowered the rewards became.
Out of the eleven prizes,
three were immediately understandable.
[Ghost Hand Talisman] and the two [Mortal World’s…] items.
His antique collection was steadily growing.
When it came to money,
these "mundane artifacts" would keep him well-funded.
No need to waste effort on chasing wealth.
Focusing on the "Great Sect Plan" was what truly mattered while he was young.
Among the remaining eight, two were identical.
Another pair of Forbidden Zone Exploration Talismans!
The description made their exact effects hard to decipher.
They seemed to work in the "private chambers of sect sisters," but how?
No clues yet.
At least he now had two of each—Ghost Hand Talisman and Forbidden Zone Exploration Talisman.
He just needed the right opportunity to test them.
The last six rewards included two secret arts.
[Fire Sigil Totem Technique] bore a suspicious resemblance to the previously acquired [Phoenix-Taming Pleasure Fingers].
If Lin Yu wasn’t mistaken, in the real world, this was called… cupping therapy?
It was summer.
Finding a deserving back wouldn’t be hard.
If he ever went jobless, he could open a massage parlor catering to women.
The other new art, [Song of Enchantment],
was even more embarrassing!
The description left little to the imagination.
So now Lin Yu was… a songbird with a mesmerizing voice?
Seriously? This was a joke, right?
A grown man asking a girl, "Hey, want me to sing for you?"
Sing my ass!
Even with a thick skin from rebirth, this was too much.
Way too cringe!
The remaining four rewards included the Fine Wine "Maiden’s Blush."
The name alone screamed not a wholesome drink.
"Maiden’s Blush" instead of "Maiden’s Wine"?
Classic.
Pairing it with the previously acquired [Drunken Flower Verse] would probably enhance the effects.
The last three were major prizes requiring careful thought.
[System Mall permissions: Spirit Cuisine Recipes x2 slots]
[System Mall permissions: Chamber Furnishings x2 slots]
This meant…
The System Mall was finally unlocked!
His unconverted spirit stones were now currency for mall purchases!
Lin Yu eagerly opened the newly appeared [Mall] interface.
Time to see what today’s four stocked items were…
with countless casualties. As a top-tier gamer, Liu Xuan volunteered to join the fight, intending to dominate with his skills, but instead he obtained the hidden class: [Pacifist]. Unable to attack. Unable to use active skills. Fortunately, with each level gained, he acquired a new passive skill. And so, armed with a body full of passives, Liu Xuan slaughtered his way through the battlefield of ten thousand races! [You attacked Liu Xuan] [You gained the debuffs: 'Poison', 'Fear', 'Burning', 'Bleeding', 'Freeze', 'Silence', etc.] [Your attack speed has been reduced by 99%] [Your armor and magic resistance have been reduced by 99%] Warriors of the Ten Thousand Races: How the hell am I supposed to fight this?!
lities. One day, Qi Yuan was buying groceries when he unfortunately came face-to-face with a monster. Just when he thought he was going to die on the spot, he suddenly heard the monster's thoughts... "This aura, he's definitely not an ordinary master!" "So terrifying, so terrifying." "A fight with my back against the wall, I can't take it anymore." Qi Yuan: Ah, no one told me that my awakened ability isn't telepathy, but rather the stronger my enemies imagine me to be, the stronger I truly become. PS: Zhou Hai in the first chapter is not the protagonist.
ose... to cooperate with the protagonist! Shen Yuan: I have a system! Protagonist: What? System: Holy crap, you're just spilling it out like that? Shen Yuan: Let's team up, we'll split the system rewards! Protagonist: Fifty-fifty split? Shen Yuan: No way! Protagonist: What!? I'm the one getting beaten up, and I don't get half? Shen Yuan: Forty-sixty split, I get forty, you get sixty! Protagonist: Deal! Big brother, come on, hit me! As long as it doesn't kill me, beat me like you mean it! Shen Yuan: Don't worry... I will definitely protect all of you! No one but me can lay a finger on you! Guard our Heaven's Chosen Ones! I'm the only one allowed to bully them!
grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
