31: Chapter 31 Stage Mission Released! Top-Tier Spirit Stone Rewards!

"Ah! Don't! Don't eat me!"

"Spare me, Immortal! Spare me, Ghost General!"

This move was indeed effective.

A series of rattling and clattering sounds followed.

From the ceiling, floor crevices, and behind the walls... more than a dozen strange-looking ghost shadows rolled out one after another.

There were hanging ghosts with long tongues, water ghosts dripping wet, and crippled ghosts missing arms or legs...

And leading them was the one who had been singing on the second floor just a moment ago.

It was a female ghost in a green opera costume; she was quite pretty, but her face was deathly pale, and two lines of blood tears hung from the corners of her eyes, making her look pitiful.

At this moment, this group of evil ghosts, who usually scared living people out of their wits, were kneeling neatly in front of Su Yang, trembling and not daring to even lift their heads.

"Yo, people... oh no, ghosts are actually quite organized."

Su Yang raised his eyebrows slightly, his gaze falling on the female ghost in the green opera costume.

"Are you the leader here?"

"Replying... Replying to the Immortal, this servant is Liu Ruyan, I was an opera singer in this mansion before I died..."

The green-clad female ghost's voice trembled, carrying a hint of mournful opera tone.

"Although we are ghosts, we only guard this mansion and have never harmed anyone's life... Those who came before were all scared away by themselves..."

"Never harmed anyone?"

Su Yang activated his Heavenly Eye Vision to take a look.

Indeed, although these ghosts had heavy Yin Qi, they did not possess the blood-stained Evil Qi of having taken lives; at most, they were lonely ghosts with lingering grievances.

"Fine, consider yourselves lucky."

Su Yang flicked the ash off his cigarette, "Since I am the new landlord, I must set some rules."

"I am a reasonable person, so I will give you two choices."

"First, be eaten by my wife and become her nourishment."

Su Qingcheng took the cue and flashed a 'nuclear' kind smile, scaring the ghosts into a shiver.

"Second, stay and work for me."

"My Agency has just opened and is short-handed. I see you all have special skills, so it's perfect to put them to good use."

"Work... work for you?"

Liu Ruyan was stunned. In all her years as a ghost, this was the first time she had heard of someone hiring ghosts to work.

"What? Not willing?" Su Yang raised an eyebrow.

"Willing! Willing! As long as you don't kill us, we'll do anything!"

The ghosts kowtowed like they were pounding garlic.

Just kidding, it's better to live miserably than to die well.

Although they were already dead, who would want to suffer Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering?

"Very good."

Su Yang nodded with satisfaction and began to direct the scene.

"You, Liu Ruyan, right? You look decent enough; from now on, you are responsible for front desk reception."

"But don't go around with a mournful face all the time, give me a smile."

Liu Ruyan hurriedly squeezed out a stiff smile that was uglier than crying.

"Still need practice."

Su Yang shook his head and pointed at the hanging ghosts with long tongues.

"You guys, with tongues that long, it's perfect for wiping windows and ceilings; saves us a ladder."

The hanging ghosts: "..."

"And you, the water ghost, you're responsible for mopping the floor and watering the flowers; you come with your own water source, eco-friendly and energy-saving."

The water ghost: "..."

"The rest of you, guard the house and move things around."

"Now, immediately, right now! Clean this house up for me!"

"I want to see this place looking brand new within half an hour, otherwise..."

Su Yang's hand crackled with lightning.

"Yes, yes, yes! Working right away! Working right away!"

The ghosts were scared out of their wits and immediately turned into streaks of shadows, starting to work busily.

The scene that followed left Zhou Mingyue, who was watching from the side, dumbfounded, and even wanting to laugh.

She saw those hanging ghosts hanging upside down from the ceiling, their long tongues acting like rags, quickly wiping the crystal chandelier—that was truly "licking" it clean!

The water ghost lay on the floor, and wherever its body passed, the floor became as shiny as new, without even a speck of dust.

The other ghosts were carrying the dilapidated furniture out or using Yin Qi to sweep away the dust.

Was this the legendary... Ghost Army passing through?

Less than half an hour later.

The originally dilapidated and eerie haunted house had actually become clean and bright, looking brand new!

Although that cold, eerie aura was still there.

But under Su Yang's instruction, Su Qingcheng slightly restrained her Evil Qi, which instead gave the place a mysterious and noble Gothic style.

"Big... Big Boss... aren't you too amazing?"

Zhou Mingyue looked at everything before her, her admiration for Su Yang reaching the sky.

Not only could he catch ghosts, but he could also train them to be obedient nannies?

This was simply carrying the exploitative spirit of capitalists into the underworld!

"Basic operation, don't be surprised."

Su Yang stood up, looked at the brand-new lobby, and nodded with satisfaction.

"From now on, this will be our base."

He walked to the front door, took out a plaque he had redeemed from the System space, and with a casual wave, hung it up.

It was a black plaque with gold lettering, written with five large characters in a dragon-phoenix style—

[Celestial Master Agency]

And next to it, there was a line of small print:

[Specializing in curing all kinds of defiance, accepting both humans and ghosts.]

"Dominating!"

Zhou Mingyue clapped her hands and cheered, then, as if remembering something, she blushed and leaned in close to Su Yang.

"That... Boss, since the company has opened, then as the Chief Publicity Officer... where do I sleep at night?"

"There are so many rooms in this house..."

Her eyes flickered; she was clearly a bit afraid to live alone, and a bit expectant to be with Su Yang...

Su Yang couldn't miss her little thoughts.

He wrapped his arm around Zhou Mingyue's slender waist and whispered wickedly in her ear:

"There are many rooms, but... only the master bedroom bed is the softest and has the most Yang Qi."

"If you are afraid of ghosts, I don't mind squeezing in a little."

"Who... who is afraid of ghosts..."

Zhou Mingyue said stubbornly, but her body honestly leaned into his arms.

"That's good."

Su Yang laughed, "Let's go, let's go check out our master bedroom, and by the way, test the elasticity of the bed."

Just as the two were about to go upstairs.

"Ding! Detected that the Agency has been established, releasing the first stage task!"

"Task Name: Make a Name for Yourself!"

"Task Description: Within one week, complete three supernatural commissions to boost the Agency's reputation!"

"Task Reward: Ten [Top-Grade Spirit Stone]s! One [Mountain Protection Array (Elementary)]!"

Su Yang paused.

Top-Grade Spirit Stone? Mountain Protection Array?

These are hard currency for building a base!

It seems that this "bed testing" activity tonight will have to be postponed, or...

Su Yang glanced at the shy Zhou Mingyue beside him, then looked at the few help-seeking private messages that had just popped up on his phone.

"Children only make choices; adults naturally want everything!"

"Test the bed first, then take the orders!"
