The headless corpse took the account written by Hu Tianhan and immediately got up to leave.
Hu Tianhan, puzzled, said, "You're just leaving like this? Don't you want the money?"
The headless corpse stopped, turned its head, and snapped, "What are you fussing about? Just mind your own business!"
Hu Tianhan, who had intended to be helpful, was instead rebuffed. He resentfully thought, "Damn it, I was just being polite. If that money can't be used later, it's not my fault!"
The headless corpse walked directly out the door without it opening.
This errand was instructed by the person who had previously given the orders. He had initially thought he would need to bring back a lot of money, but unexpectedly, before leaving, Lu Fang said he only needed to bring back the account.
A pleasant errand had turned into a difficult one.
If it were cash, he could have spent some freely; this back-and-forth was just a piece of paper. To be precise, it wasn't even a piece of paper, just a simple string of numbers.
"Damn Lu Fang, he's so incompetent. I hope you die of illness. You ruined my easy job, you deserve whatever bad luck comes your way! I curse you to never recover for millions of years..."
The headless corpse left Hu Tianhan's place, cursing all the way. He cursed Lu Fang's ancestors and descendants.
"Hmph! I'll be seeing the boss soon, I must complain about you!"
As he was about to report back, he muttered to himself.
"Report! Greetings, my Lord!"
Upon reaching the person who had given the orders, the headless corpse immediately bowed.
"You're back. Give me the account!"
"Yes!"
The headless corpse spoke and presented the paper with the account number.
The person who had given the orders took the paper and looked at it carefully.
"My Lord, I hope you don't mind me asking. Lu Fang said he only needed this account for the money. What about the money itself?"
The headless corpse asked respectfully.
"Haha, that's where you don't understand. In modern society, everything is done through accounts. No one carries cash anymore."
The person who had given the orders laughed.
"But I'm worried, without cash, how can we put it into the taming discs?"
"Heh heh, I'll take you to see, and you'll understand!"
"Yes, that would be great. I can broaden my horizons too!"
The headless corpse said, following the person who had given the orders as they walked towards the taming discs in the Shura arena.
The Shura arena had expanded many times its previous size. However, it was still not filled with soul spirits. The taming discs had increased by dozens, and many were empty, prepared for future soul spirit taming.
In the center of each taming disc were over a dozen 'Fu Gen'.
Some yellow lights continuously roamed in the middle of the taming discs. Sometimes they would enter the bodies of the soul spirits, and sometimes they would appear above their heads.
The entire Shura arena was filled with all sorts of strange sounds.
There were cries of anguish, laughter and scolding, and loud singing.
Having long grown accustomed to these sounds, the headless corpse felt no discomfort. On the contrary, if the place were silent, it would feel uneasy.
Walking to the taming disc in the very center of the Shura arena, the person who had given the orders stopped.
Among these taming discs, the largest one was in the middle. It was as large as a football field and could tame three thousand soul spirits simultaneously. In the center was the largest 'Fu Gen' in the entire Shura arena.
Facing the 'Fu Gen', the person who had given the orders held the paper with the account number in his hand and began to chant a spell.
"Mimi mama, mimi mama..."
Soon, the paper "swooshed" into the air.
It stopped as soon as it floated above the 'Fu Gen'.
"Watch closely! The show is about to begin!"
The person who had given the orders said casually, a rare display of happiness.
The headless corpse dared not relax for a moment, fearing any oversight. It had wanted to report Lu Fang, but there was no opportunity.
Now, it could only watch how the person who had given the orders used this account paper.
The paper hovered above the 'Fu Gen' and stopped. A moment later, it began to spin, spinning continuously.
Then, red paper scraps began to fall.
The headless corpse's eyes lit up, and it stared intently at the red papers. It turned out they were all actual cash, the currency commonly used in China.
"Excellent! Truly wonderful, my Lord is truly brilliant!"
The headless corpse exclaimed while watching.
The person who had given the orders also looked proudly at the taming disc, admiring the scene.
As soon as the cash touched the 'Fu Gen', it vanished without a trace.
It was as if it were being eaten by the 'Fu Gen', or perhaps it was melted by the yellow light from the 'Fu Gen', emitting countless red lights that shot towards the surrounding soul spirits.
Upon seeing this, the soul spirits frantically gathered around the 'Fu Gen', greedily absorbing the light.
After absorbing the light, their faces glowed red, and they wore expressions of bliss.
"Congratulations, my Lord, congratulations! Before long, we will ascend to the heavens and establish our own order!"
The headless corpse flattered at the opportune moment.
"Hahaha, of course! That day will come!"
The person who had given the orders said with a smile, "However, it will still take some time. We need more money, otherwise, the ferocity of these soul spirits will not be enough, and I fear we will not be their match."
"My Lord, rest assured. As long as there is a way to obtain money, we will do our utmost!"
"Good! Oh, right, how much money did you bring back this time?"
The person who had given the orders asked abruptly.
"Reporting to my Lord, this time we obtained one billion. That fellow surnamed Hu is probably not capable of this important task. Shall we choose someone else?"
The headless corpse said, placing all the blame for poor financial performance on Hu Tianhan's head.
If one billion was not enough, then the person who had given the orders could settle accounts with Hu Tianhan, and the headless corpse could use this opportunity to promote someone of its own choosing to this position.
In its opinion, making money in the mortal world was about getting the money, regardless of how much it was!
The person who had given the orders did not speak, and slowly lit a cigar.
"Hmm, too little, still too little!"
"Yes, it's all because that fellow was incompetent!"
The headless corpse added fuel to the fire.
"Go and call Lu Fang to see me!"
The person who had given the orders commanded.
"Your subordinate obeys!"
The headless corpse took the order, thinking, "Now this is good. Lu Fang, let's see how my Lord deals with you! You chose that Hu Tianhan for my Lord back then, and now he's incompetent, you probably can't escape responsibility either!"
It hurried off to summon Lu Fang to see the person who had given the orders.
Although Lu Fang was injured, he had recovered about eighty percent through cultivation in the Shura arena during this period, and his health was no longer a major concern.
As soon as he heard that the person who had given the orders wanted to see him, he immediately followed the headless corpse to pay his respects.
"Greetings, my Lord!"
They spoke in unison, just like the headless corpse. Soudan Novel Network
"Hmm! You're here! Come and take a look!"
The person who had given the orders pointed to the taming discs ahead.
These things contained Lu Fang's hard work, and he could sense any abnormality immediately.
