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…
s + Rent Collection Wealth】 At the start, he inherited a rundown house in the urban village from his grandfather. The house had no tenants, but the moment he was diagnosed with a terminal illness, a self-proclaimed empress from the Tianxuan Continent arrived as his first tenant. Ye Chuan soon discovered that with every new tenant moving in, not only did he receive massive daily payments, but he also obtained unique items related to their backgrounds. 【Acquired Bai Qianshuang’s related item: Tiger Strength Pill—dramatically enhances physical power!】 【Acquired Bai Qianshuang’s related item: Deer Blood Pill—significantly boosts vitality!】 …… From that day on, all sorts of bizarre tenants began appearing in the house: the empress from Tianxuan Continent, an apocalyptic sorceress from the Magic Realm, a mysterious scientific girl who fell through a spacetime rift… Every single day, he received strange, powerful items and endless money. Then one day, he suddenly realized—he had become invincible. Enough, enough! Stop giving me more!
he colors of other people’s emotions. Light red meant anxiety. Gray meant exhaustion. Orange meant excitement. Yellow... meant repression. At the same time, he could gain unlimited control over one of those colors. Pale cyan: relaxation. Using this ability, he started offering “two-yuan hugs,” spending an afternoon exchanging emotional-color experiences with others. Then came his final female customer of the day— a girl whose emotional color was pure black... —— A week later, Xu Chuan had become skilled at using pale cyan—Relaxation—treating it like a bottle of menthol balm whenever he needed it. That was when he discovered he had unlocked another unlimited emotional color: Purple, the color of fear. So these emotional colors refresh every week? Fine, I take it back—I’ll never call you useless again... —— Much later, after Xu Chuan had accumulated countless emotional abilities, one night, he suddenly found himself inside someone else’s dream. There, he could use the emotional colors he possessed to paint. And in her dream, he painted her a shower of pink shooting stars, spreading across the depths of the night sky...
. As long as he maintains the villain image and follows the plot to the grand finale, he can obtain generous rewards and return to the real world. So Gu Chen'an entered the role and began to act as a scumbag villain, but who would have expected that the female leads could hear his inner thoughts. Miss Su from the Su family was shocked: "I originally thought Gu Chen'an was a scumbag, but I didn't expect he turned out to be a gentleman! What? You said I have to call off the engagement? I definitely won't, I'll piss you off!" Bai Yuan Tian was dumbfounded: "Young Master Gu is usually unreasonable and a complete brat, but he actually calls me little sweetie in his heart? What, Young Master Gu even said he likes me?" As the female leads' images collapsed more and more, the plot also collapsed with it. Gu Chen'an looked at all this chaos. "Ladies, don't aggro me, if you keep this up the male lead really will stab me, I still need to survive to the grand finale!"
nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.
