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…
tions: attribute allocation, analysis, proficiency, and simulation. Specializing in mechanical alchemy, from crafting sorcerous battle armor to handcrafting mechanical maidens, his mechanical legion conquers endless realms... Relying on his wits, he begins with a student-teacher romance, wins over a female director, enslaves a female assassin and a underworld queen, becoming the husband of a Grand Duchess... He enslaves the Goddess of Magic from the divine realm, developing his power simultaneously in both the Wizard World and the Realm of Gods...
ut it can buy an entire year of absolutely perfect training results! Su Yu stared at his empty wallet and decisively opened up various online loan platforms. “Borrow a thousand bucks! Recharge my vitality!” Boom! His vitality broke a hundred points, shattering the limits of the human body! “Borrow ten thousand bucks! Recharge my combat skills!” Boom! A basic punching technique so common it was everywhere instantly maxed out, revealing the ultimate assassination technique of Five Elements Unity—Inner Force! When a rich kid hired assassins for a midnight ambush, aiming to break both of his legs, they instead ran headfirst into a monster—a human-shaped tyrannosaur, brimming with dragon-like vitality. With just two fingers, Su Yu snapped a steel staff reinforced with alloy. Staring at the killer’s stash of stolen cash—a staggering quarter-million dollars—he showed a corporate-sincere smile: “Thanks for the pre-exam gift pack, Mr. Zhao! I’m gonna go re-invest this!” Three days later, at the National Martial Arts College Entrance Exam, while everyone else struggled just to reach the passing line, Su Yu threw a single punch—and more than a thousand vitality points literally detonated the entire arena!
d intelligence to keep the plot moving, and sometimes even the protagonists are forced into absurdly dumb decisions. Why does the A-list celebrity heroine in urban romance novels ditch the top-tier movie star and become a lovestruck fool for a pockmarked male lead? Why do the leads in historical tragedy novels keep dancing between love and death, only for the blind healer to end up suffering the most? And Gu Wei never expected that after finally landing a villain role to stir up trouble, she’d pick the wrong gender! No choice now—she’ll just have to crush the protagonists as a girl!
ing gift was a patch of barren land, and disciples were all picked up along the way. He spent fifty years diligently building three "ramshackle little sects," thinking he could finally live a carefree life relying on his disciples. But right at the fifty-year mark, he was suddenly swept away by a spatial rift and exiled to the Chaos Desolation, the Disorderly Ruins. There was no spiritual energy there, only slaughter. Relying on the cultivation feedback from his disciples, Gu Changyuan hacked his way through a sea of blood for eleven hundred years. When the system finally fished him back out, he discovered the ramshackle little sects he'd built back then had developed a rather... unusual style. Hold on... I vanished for a thousand years, so how did my ramshackle little sects become holy lands?!
