Chapter 610: Chapter 551: Opening Move, Currency War!_2

The first type of affiliate that belonged to Wang Yuan—the [Painted Skin Ghost]—was still quietly transforming.

Although he didn’t possess the power to proliferate, he held the authority over the six paths of reincarnation, and a small act of using it for personal gain only took a flick of his fingers.

The birth timing of this first batch of affiliates should be only a few days behind that of the Butterfly Immortal.

And these entirely new Heavenly People, who hadn’t drunk Meng Po Soup, were all of that kind who harbored great merit but were even craftier than evildoers—true personifications of cunning.

After awakening their race’s innate divine abilities, they could completely replace a living person of the same realm in every aspect.

Memory, emotions, Daoist skill...

"The Small Book of Life and Death" could certainly achieve this effect, too, but the cost in Yin Morality was painfully high, lacking the feasibility for large-scale use.

Once they were fully formed, everyone including Wang Yuan and the entire council of the Five Senses would share this ability.

Saving a huge amount of [Yin Morality].

Moreover, since they had tasted too many advantages from the "Twenty-Five Percent Trick" on the body of Zhu Bo’an, who was quickly becoming the second most important person in Chuyun Country, Wang Yuan had arranged for these Painted Skin Ghosts to be placed not on [The Other Shore’s Three Realms], but across the whole Red County Shenzhou!

They were to go to the Mortal World, to enemy camps, to wherever Old Master Wang needed them to be.

More importantly, the capacity of [The Other Shore’s Three Realms] far exceeds that of other people’s Immortal Heaven, and [Painted Skin Ghosts] were definitely not the only intelligent affiliates under his command.

Seeing the plan proceeding smoothly, Wang Yuan nodded slightly:

"Now everyone needs to put their all into action, racing against the time we have before the Daoism Transformation Disaster.

Lady Immortal and Xing’er’s side of the trade and commerce also needs to step up their efforts.

Soon, our own [Human Dao Torrent·Daoist Skill Industry Revolution] will officially kick off.

And as is widely known, the first step of the industrial revolution is... capital accumulation!

If we don’t sacrifice a few countries to the torrent of capital, it would be rather too unimpressive.

On the twenty-second of July, heh, by then, the opening move we make will surely astound everyone."

...

Several days later.

Cloud Tower Ghost Market, Falling Pearl Small Realm.

After devouring the [Great Yan Treasure Ship], the number of portals that [Money Box] could open increased to 48.

Besides the core Cloud Tower Ghost Market, there were twelve branch ghost markets on land and four in the form of Great Yan Treasure Ships at sea.

The farthest branch had already crossed the Southern Ocean countries, reaching beyond the maritime area of the Great Yan Civilization.

It had long since far outpaced the old-fashioned sorcerer gatherings of "Netherworld Square" from [Nine Phases Corpse Divine Tao] and "Money-Opening Eyes Building" from [Six Desires Red Dust Tao].

Of course, Boss Wang’s unfair competitive practices had played a significant part in this.

Most of [Six Desires Red Dust Tao]’s core members heading to Yunjing City were wiped out, leaving only Fanglin Master as the sole survivor.

Most of the high-level management at [Netherworld Square], along with their Sect Master Marshal Thousand Phases Master, perished on Chikushido Island.

As Wang Yuan and Huang Wu created their own Inner Scene Heaven and Earth, the previously solitary Falling Pearl Small Realm then became the office for both the Shopkeeper and Deputy Shopkeeper.

In an elegant pavilion on the island.

Two breathtaking beauties were sitting opposite each other at a desk, proficiently reviewing various Ghost Market affairs.

One was dressed in an emerald gauze skirt, her skin as white as jade showing faintly through the mist-like gossamer, with a vibrant peach blossom tattoo blooming on her pale shoulder.

A peach petal hairpin adorned her fair forehead, and her lips glistened with shiny lip gloss, strikingly alluring and fragrant with life.

She casually leaned in a sandalwood chair, swaying her dainty blue-and-white embroidered shoes with the tips of her toes.

It was none other than the Ghost Market’s Shopkeeper—[Wood Official] Lady Peach Fairy.

The other beauty, with a graceful figure, almond eyes and rosy cheeks, alluring and elegant, bore a pair of red fox ears on her head and swished eight fox tails behind her.

She exuded an enchanting quality that could bewitch all living beings from the inside out.

At a glance, she almost made one believe she was one of those devastating demon queens from history.

She was the Deputy Shopkeeper—[Fire Official] the Fox Spirit Xing’er.

Both were equally stunning in appearance, but Xing’er’s inherent charm stemming from the [Ravishing Beauty] trait subtly seemed to have the edge over Lady Peach Fairy.

One was a sect demoness known for seducing living beings to their doom, and the other a specially trained assassin and oiran from the Killing Temple.

Their compatibility with a commercial empire was absolutely perfect, a match made in heaven!

"This month, the scheduled shipments from the distribution system have again increased by a whopping fifty percent.

In the Yan State area.

After narrowly escaping death before, Su Guyun was horrified and has led his troops to attack cities and conquer lands non-stop over the past three months.

Handing over all domestic affairs to the civil servants, Xiao Zhu has purged her ranks seven or eight times in his wake, almost completely washing away traces of the No-Life Dao.

Once she takes down Yan State, she will inevitably start a war with Yu State. The timing for harvesting the fruits is nearly ripe.

We’re just waiting for the Dharma Master’s orders now."

Lady Peach Fairy, holding a scroll of the ledger, her eyes lighting up with the numbers on it:

"Moreover, our agency system has been a tremendous success.

In just three months, the readily supplied military supplies, cloth, iron pots, salt... and so on from Dushuo Mountain.

It’s not only become wildly popular among the various vassals throughout Red County Divine Land.

It’s also been taken up by those Money-Opening Eyes distributors who have expanded all the way to Tanhuan, the Naiman Five Divisions, the thirty-six countries of the Western Regions, the Xiangxiong Kingdom, and even the six states of Langqiong caught in turmoil."
