I Am Your Natural Enemy

Chapter 960 - 350: Sliding Kneel—Better You Than Me (5k)

The Ghost Wealth God named Men Xinsheng, went to Nanyang when he was young, engaged in various ventures there, of course, he also lent money, but he wasn’t ruthless enough, so whatever he did was neither successful nor a failure.

Yet, because he wasn’t ruthless enough, he always adhered to rules, even with the locals, he spoke of rules, of all those who went to Nanyang, he was the only one who lived to old age.

In the end, he was able to bring money back, seek roots, build bridges and roads for the village, and established a scholarship fund in the village.

Returning to his hometown, after finishing what he originally did for cover, he truly felt a sense of achievement.

People in his era valued recognizing their ancestors, returning to roots, building bridges and roads, specifically erecting a monument for him alone, a highly honorable thing.

The matter, indeed, was done earnestly, even though by then, his body was failing, lacking energy, head in a fog, he really didn’t expect to become a Ghost Wealth God and continue his career.

Because he had inquired before, and a few others did the same without any follow-up.

Unexpectedly, he spent his own money, exerted effort, died, and could easily enter the small temple.

No longer burdened by a physical body, free from the pain of illness, lacking energy, head in a fog, it was as if he found a second life.

Just like his days in Nanyang, he cautiously probed, carefully gathered information.

Then he set his first rule: absolutely not involve the living.

It wasn’t arrogance, it was clear to him, though he wasn’t a good person, straying around the grey area, crossing lines leads to downfall, unsustainable.

Thus, he picked souls that were beyond saving gamblers, Evil Ghosts captured by the Scorching Sun Department sure to be shot.

Though initially the accumulation was somewhat difficult, at least it didn’t lead to an irreversible situation someday.

Once he understood the Scorching Sun Department, understood the Three Mountains and Five Ridges, he felt a sense of fear, grateful for his caution.

Otherwise, there’d be no room to maneuver later.

Now Wen Yan showed up at his door, Wen Yan crushed him with a glance, learning who Wen Yan is, seeing Wen Yan help a Ghost subjected to counterattack, forcibly suppressing the counterattack.

Men Xinsheng was already prepared, he figured out how to protect himself.

Even if he knew, if he acted in rebellion, it might lead to doom, but he knew better, being found by Wen Yan here, knowing so much, if he didn’t cooperate, he’d be doomed now.

From a dying, pain-tortured old patient, to a chance at rebirth, he didn’t want it to end like this.

Another, more important reason, he saw for the first time a Ghost subjected to counterattack, yet the counterattack could be resolved.

Merely needing three times the given wealth to resolve it.

Men Xinsheng couldn’t handle the counterattack, he just tried, unexpectedly it worked.

Even the counterattack can be resolved with "money", Men Xinsheng found it alarming.

Of course, it further made him realize, even if he rebelled, sold some information, theoretically, there’s a price, paid to resolve it.

Until now, he really didn’t have much chips, didn’t acquire much "money", under current rules, even subjected to counterattack, wouldn’t need much money.

If the visitor was someone else, he might not act this way, but the visitor was Wen Yan, Wen Yan in Guanzhong County, especially in the County Town’s Ghost circle, extremely famous.

Promises made, even a few thousand Ghosts, could make the Scorching Sun Department act.

This surpasses the effect of being remembered in stone.

Note, now where the most active Ghosts gather, is Guanzhong County.

For the Ghosts here to believe is not an easy task.

Just when Men Xinsheng was calculating, even prepared for counterattack.

Wen Yan grabbed Men Xinsheng, took out a stable from his bag, let the warhorse out, stuffed Men Xinsheng inside, then with his own Power, continuously suppressed in three layers.

Wen Yan checked the time, took out his phone, directly dialed the General Director.

Now was the time, even at two in the morning, a phone call was necessary.

The call rang twice and was answered, the person who answered was the General Director’s secretary, informed the Director was resting, then the secretary confirmed again whether it was essential for this time.

After confirmation, the secretary went to wake the Director.

The Director opened his eyes, immediately alert, sat up.

"What’s the matter?"

"A call from Wen Yan, confirmed it’s indeed him."

The Director took the phone and heard Wen Yan’s voice.

"Hello, Director, it’s me, Wen Yan, there’s something I find extremely necessary to report right away."

Wen Yan briefly spoke about tracking the Ghost Wealth God.

"That’s roughly it, more details, I haven’t specifically asked, seemingly more core matter, this Ghost Wealth God mentioned, will trigger rules, lead to counterattack.

It’s certain, not only one Ghost Wealth God.

And the Luoyue County issue, so far, doesn’t contradict our predictions.

Possibly some old entity suddenly resuscitated, transformed into a Ghost Wealth God.

The event involves money, enticing people to jump into rivers, likely for their souls.

At the moment souls leave the body, they capture all souls.
