And on the other side, in room 419.

The Hanged Ghost and the Smoke Ghost, who had been keeping an eye on the situation, also rushed to the peephole to check what was happening outside the moment it unfolded.

“Honey, that bitch has run out of money, she’ll definitely be kicked out,” the Hanged Ghost said excitedly.

“Right, she’s definitely out of money. We’ll follow her as she leaves the hotel, then make our move,” the Smoke Ghost nodded in agreement.

Within two to three minutes, Mu Rufeng and Bai Jingwei walked out of their room.

The two exchanged glances and opened the door, stepping out as well.

Bai Jingwei’s face turned even paler when she saw the two appear, and she once again pleaded bitterly to Mu Rufeng.

However, Mu Rufeng remained utterly unmoved.

This scene made the Smoke Ghost and the Hanged Ghost behind them even more excited.

Mu Rufeng took Bai Jingwei to the front desk, where he processed her check-out. But Bai Jingwei still clung to the hotel, refusing to leave.

Mu Rufeng had no choice but to call security, who escorted Bai Jingwei out.

And Mu Rufeng followed alongside, expressionless.

The instant Bai Jingwei was thrown out of the hotel, the Hanged Ghost and the Smoke Ghost bolted after her, hesitating not a second before attacking her.

But as their attack landed on Bai Jingwei, the space around them suddenly shifted and churned.

They hadn’t attacked Bai Jingwei but instead found themselves facing a livid Mu Rufeng.

Most importantly, they were still on the parking lot, not yet having left the premises of the Blood Chamber Hotel.

“You dare attack me?” Mu Rufeng dusted off his chest, where no dust was to be found, and spoke in a cold voice.

“Ah… what… what’s going on? Where’s that bitch?” the Hanged Ghost stammered, disbelief written all over her face.

“Let’s go!” the Smoke Ghost, pulling the Hanged Ghost in tow, dashed toward the outskirts of the hotel.

They had broken the rules by attacking a staff member in the hotel. If they didn’t leave, death was certain.

“Think you can escape? Can you?” Mu Rufeng let out a cold laugh.

Mu Rufeng used Instantaneous Movement to appear behind the two, and with punches swift as children’s play, he quickly put an end to the odd couple.

To ensure a quick resolution, Mu Rufeng also invoked the power of the Blood Chamber Hotel to boost his strength, dramatically increasing it.

One was Level 4, the other Level 5. How could they possibly escape the punch of Mu Rufeng in his most powerful state?

[Trigger successful, Constitution +0.1, Ghost Power +0.1%]

[Trigger successful, Spirit +0.1, Ghost Power +0.1%]

“Mr. Mu, are you alright?” the nearby security guard, having recovered from the shock, hurriedly asked.

“I’m fine, go about your business,” Mu Rufeng waved his hand dismissively.

“Yes, Mr. Mu,” the security guard nodded immediately and returned to his post.

“Thank you, thank you, Brother Mu,” Bai Jingwei, seeing her enemies dead, was suddenly overjoyed, her face flushing as she looked at Mu Rufeng.

“Alright, hurry back, it’s almost time,” Mu Rufeng spoke.

“Okay, Brother Mu,” Bai Jingwei responded, and then directly returned to her Contract Slot.

…

Time flashed by, and it was soon six in the evening.

At this moment, it was time for the restaurant to open.

And when the restaurant closed, it would also be time for these players to return.

Mu Rufeng was not entertaining guests in the restaurant, but was in a luxurious private room.

Xu He and Xu Yin were there as well, but there were also two other strangers whom Mu Rufeng did not recognize.

Through Xu He’s introduction, Mu Rufeng learned that the middle-aged man in a suit was Zhou Cheng, a branch manager of Heaven and Earth Bank.

The other middle-aged man was Liu Dao, the fourth major shareholder of Crimson Preferred.

Hmm, he was also Liu Mei’s father.

This was why Liu Mei, a Level 5 Gu, was able to hold the position of HR manager at Crimson Preferred.

It could be said that apart from Mu Rufeng, a Level 2 Contractor, the other four were all Level 8 Ghost Kings.

“I really didn’t expect you, a Contractor, to also be a shareholder of Crimson Preferred,” Zhou Cheng said, looking at Mu Rufeng with disbelief.

“If not for Mr. Mu, we at Crimson Preferred couldn’t have opened channels to the real world,” Xu He said with a smile.

“Being able to facilitate this channel partnership has made me quite happy as a shareholder,” Mu Rufeng said with a light smile.

“Come on, let’s drink to celebrate the strategic partnership we’ve achieved.”

The group clinked glasses and downed the Maotai liquor in one go.

“Truly worthy of the Ghost Emperor series of Maotai—what a unique flavor!” Zhou Cheng praised.

“Heh, I have plenty here. Today we drink to our heart’s content. No one leaves sober,” replied Mu Rufeng, who had bought a lot of liquor. Even if they finished it all that night, it would be worth it.

As they ate, drank, and chatted, time flew by, and nearly an hour passed—the restaurant was about to close.

And they had almost finished their meal.

“By the way, Mr. Mu, this is an auction invitation from Treasure Tower. I happen to need to go back to the Capital headquarters that day.”

“If you’re interested, you might want to check it out, and it should be useful to you,” said a tipsy Zhou Cheng, handing a gilt-edged invitation to Mu Rufeng.

“An invitation?” Mu Rufeng blinked in surprise as he took it.

[Treasure Tower Auction Invitation]: An annual auction invitation from Treasure Tower.

Special Items: Holding this auction, you can go to Treasure Tower to attend the auction at a specific time.

Auction Date: 13th August at 18:00.

Seat Number: Tian-word No.1 Box.

Owner: Zhou Cheng, branch manager of Heaven and Earth Bank.

Note: When the Contractor holds this invitation, they can summon the owner from the real world to attend the Treasure Tower auction in the form of an instance at a specific time.

[Would you like to bind this invitation?]

A prompt sounded.

“This invitation can give you an extra instance pass. Should be useful to you, right?” Zhou Cheng mentioned.

“Summoning in the form of an instance? Adds an extra instance clear.” Mu Rufeng’s pupils narrowed slightly.
