Su Chen focused his gaze and a terrifying face appeared in front of him.

The face was grotesque, covered in bloodstains. Su Chen was momentarily stunned. Ever since he activated his Infinite Spirit Eye, he had frequently seen strange things. He had long grown accustomed to it.

The ghostly creatures surrounding the warehouse paid no attention to Su Chen's arrival.

They were absorbed in devouring the spiritual energy from the spirit stones.

The latest batch of spirit stones had already been mostly consumed.

Su Chen walked over, pretending not to know anything.

However, when Su Chen approached the ghostly creatures, they immediately took a few steps back.

It seemed that there was something on Su Chen that they greatly feared.

"He's just a person, what is there to be afraid of?"

"The aura on his body is strong, he is a person with pure character."

The conversation between two ghostly creatures reached Su Chen's ears.

Su Chen furrowed his brow and tried to get closer to the ghostly creatures.

But every time Su Chen approached, the ghostly creatures would show a pained expression and quickly move away.

"There is a lot of spiritual energy to absorb in Jinling City, not just from these spirit stones. I heard that the Dali Dynasty will be sending a batch of spirit stones here in a few days. Quickly inform the ghostly creatures from all directions to absorb these spirit stones. Our cultivation will greatly increase, and we may even be able to take human form."

One of the ghostly creatures swallowed a piece of spirit stone and spoke.

The entire warehouse was densely packed with ghostly creatures.

If an ordinary person were to see this, they would surely be terrified.

One of the ghostly creatures responded and then walked straight out of the door.

It was daytime now, and that ghostly creature didn't seem to fear the sunlight at all. It seemed that these ghostly creatures had absorbed a lot of spiritual energy and greatly increased their cultivation.

At this moment, a shopkeeper also walked in.

His expression was serious as he asked, "Sir, this is our warehouse for storing spirit stones. What brings you here?"

Su Chen snapped back to reality and said, "I am from the Veiled Spirit Sect."

The shopkeeper looked skeptical.

"Sir, please don't joke around. The Veiled Spirit Sect doesn't have any male disciples!"

"I suspect that your intentions for coming here are not pure. If that's the case, I will report you to the authorities!"

Su Chen smiled.

"Sister Zhang Ruoxue will be here soon."

While Su Chen was entangled with the shopkeeper, Zhang Ruoxue walked in from outside.

Zhang Ruoxue was wearing a light veil skirt, her face devoid of makeup, but her peerless beauty couldn't be concealed. Especially her stunning figure, any man who laid eyes on her would be deeply enchanted.

With the sudden appearance of such a beauty in the store, all the scattered customers turned their attention towards her.

Upon hearing the commotion between Su Chen and the shopkeeper, Zhang Ruoxue immediately walked over.

The shopkeeper spoke, "Boss, this person is impersonating a member of the Veiled Spirit Sect."

Zhang Ruoxue smiled.

"He is indeed a disciple of the Veiled Spirit Sect!"

The shopkeeper was dumbfounded.

Didn't the Veiled Spirit Sect not accept male disciples?

Su Chen smiled and didn't blame the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper was just doing his job.

Zhang Ruoxue asked, "Are there any problems with this batch of spirit stones?"

Su Chen nodded.

"These spirit stones have problems, but it has nothing to do with us."

"It's a serious problem. I'll tell you later."

Su Chen's expression turned serious.

If all the ghostly creatures from all directions were to gather in Jinling City, it would be enveloped in powerful ghostly energy.

At that time, the living beings here would suffer a major disaster.

Ghosts and demons, both have good and bad qualities.

The medicine ghost Su Chen encountered earlier was a kind-hearted ghost.

However, the ghosts he just saw in the warehouse were filled with evil.

Allowing those ghosts to enter Jinling City would surely bring about a major disaster for the city.

Su Chen turned around and left. He wanted to prevent the news from reaching the four-directional ghosts and entering the city.

When Zhang Ruoxue saw Su Chen's serious expression, she hadn't had a chance to ask before Su Chen had already left the shop.

The ghost from earlier had already gone far away.

Su Chen quickly rushed towards the ghost.

However, the ghost's speed was fast and always maintained a distance from Su Chen.

Moreover, the ghost seemed to have sensed Su Chen's presence.

He quickly arrived at the city gate and suddenly turned around with a smile. His ferocious face was filled with strangeness.

"You can actually see me!"

"You must have heard our conversation just now, but it's too late. The four-directional ghosts will arrive soon, and you can't stop them."

After speaking, the ghost's figure suddenly disappeared.

Su Chen's face became serious, and he flew over.

However, the ghost's figure had already vanished without a trace.

This ghost had just used ghost magic.

A ghost that can use ghost magic is at least at the 4th realm, equivalent to the Foundation Building realm of a cultivator. Su Chen couldn't possibly track down this ghost.

Su Chen returned to the shop with a serious expression.

"What's going on?"

Zhang Ruoxue immediately approached.

This action immediately attracted jealous and envious gazes from the people around.

"He's just a pretty boy. Look at that body, he must be a playboy who indulges in pleasure."

"I think he's a rich man. Such a high-quality woman, what a waste!"

Someone muttered secretly.

Su Chen naturally heard it, but he didn't pay any attention.

"Sister, is the Dali Dynasty going to transport a batch of jade stones in a few days?"

Zhang Ruoxue was slightly surprised.

Only a few people knew about this, how could Su Chen know?

"Yes."

Zhang Ruoxue lowered her voice.

"Those jade stones are filled with spiritual energy. Our business may be affected recently."

"So, the amount of jade stones we've brought down from the mountain has also decreased a lot. After this period, Veiled Spirit Sect's business should improve."

Su Chen shook his head, his expression bitter.

Even if the Dali Dynasty doesn't come, the spiritual energy of the jade stones in his own house has already been absorbed completely, and they can't be sold for a good price.

These jade stones can only be felt to be full of energy when they are opened and used.

Ordinary people, unless they have the Infinite Spirit Eye like Su Chen, cannot detect the spiritual energy of the jade stones before they are opened. This is also the real reason why Zhang Ruoxue didn't notice it.

Those buyers must have discovered that these spiritual stones had no spiritual energy only after using them.

"What does this have to do with anything?"

Su Chen shook his head and said to Zhang Ruoxue.

"Sister, let's talk about it at home."

After speaking, Su Chen turned around and left.

Zhang Ruoxue obediently followed.

The obedient appearance surprised the people around them.

A woman of this level actually listens to a pretty boy without question!
