Chapter 514: Talent (1/2)

While Xue Wei could bring Qi cultivation to the Ghost Realm, it was not as outstanding as one might expect.

To be able to use this Qi cultivation, one needed a Marrow-Cleansing Pill, or to have just created their spiritual bodies. The Marrow-Cleansing pills could not be created in the Ghost Realm, and those who had just recently become ghosts were also not capable of getting their hands on a Qi cultivation method.

So, even if the method got spread throughout the entire Ghost Realm, it was still impossible to train in it without the assistance of Xue Wei.

The middle-aged ghost was not willing to announce the cultivation method to the rest of the world as it would not do him any good.

The world was such that no one would be happy if others had something unattainable, and thus they would destroy it since they could not get it.

The Ghost Realm was no different, and when the high ranked experts found out that it was impossible to learn the technique themselves, they would unleash their anger onto the middle-aged ghost, and kill him, so that the skill which they could not control would vanish.

It was better that it vanished than it landing in the hands of someone else.

Xue Wei was somewhat familiar with human nature, and he understood that this was the likely result. Hence, he also knew that the middle-aged ghost was an excellent working partner. He would never dare to reveal anything to ensure his own safety.

The female ghost was equally unlikely to say anything to others. She had already experienced the agony and despair of not being in charge of her own life, and thus she was going to be extra careful.

As such, Xue Wei did not have to say anything, but even so, these two ghosts were going to keep every secret that he might have, out of fear of someone turning their greedy eyes to them.

Lan, who had been trying to loosen the seal, could not help but smirk when watching the two ghosts.

He knew that the ultimate winner so far was Xue Wei. He had earned a fortune from selling his goods, he had also managed to get a loyal guide, and even the merchant, who one would usually have to guard against, was willing to cover his back to ensure that he was not threatened.

This was truly getting the best profits for the least amount of work. Lan had to admit that Xue Wei was rather shrewd.

While everyone knew that Xue Wei was the biggest winner, no one felt unhappy. They had each taken what they needed, and the time slowly ticked by.
