The Little White Rat Spirit bowed respectfully, holding a ledger with a fawning expression;

It was trying to get Lin Chen's praise, as the incense offerings at the temple had increased again.

Ever since the Door Gods were upgraded to Five-Star, the Rat Spirit Familiar had also benefited greatly. Its spiritual essence was full, and it was only one step away from advancing to a Blue Card.

But it was clearly scared!

Ever since it followed Lin Chen out on that trip, it had been fighting Evil Gods or Evil Offspring the whole way.

This little rat had never seen such a scene before. It was so scared that it hid in the temple, honestly sweeping the floor and tending to the incense.

Lin Chen certainly wouldn't blame it. The Rat Spirit's role was support, and its main duty was to manage temple property and stabilize incense offerings.

Next, Lin Chen asked the Temple Steward where he could find Anomalous Creatures to kill.

Since the Rat Spirit had transitioned from a ghost rat to a legitimate spirit, it knew the Myriad Ghosts Night Parade Capital like the back of its hand and began to report:

The Door God Temple was located in a remote suburban area, so there were fewer Anomalous Creatures.

But the closer it got to the city center, the more concentrated the Anomalous Creatures became!

Commercial districts, office districts, residential buildings… all filled with ghosts!

Lin Chen understood. No wonder the instance was called Myriad Ghosts Night Parade Capital, but there were only six ghosts attacking the Door God Temple back then.

He had gotten lucky at the start.

If he had been born in a high-traffic "high-risk area" like a subway station or a mall at the beginning, his fate might have been different.

After all, it was a B-Class Dungeon, and he couldn't underestimate it.

However, Lin Chen's strength had greatly increased, and he was in urgent need of materials, so he could start exploring further afield.

After the Door God Temple's incense offerings were rekindled, the Anomalous Creatures were even more afraid to come. Killing another ghost rat had further deterred the surrounding area, making it calm and peaceful.

Therefore, Lin Chen had walked a long way, but there was still not a single ghostly shadow.

What was going on? Had the Myriad Ghosts started traveling during the day?

He glanced at the two Door Gods guarding him, one exuding majestic divine might, the other a fierce malevolent aura.

Even without speaking, the power of suppressing evil and eliminating malevolence emanating from the Door Gods was like a beacon in the night.

He understood! It turned out the Door Gods were too powerful, scaring all the ghosts away.

Then he would try entrapment!

Lin Chen put away the Door Gods and then began to swagger around alone.

He wasn't afraid of surprise attacks. After the Door God card was integrated into his spiritual platform, it was like Amber before;

He no longer needed to hold the card manually. He could summon it anytime without the card, moving with his heart.

As a result, after wandering for a long time, there were still none!

Lin Chen stood at the street corner where a chilling wind blew, only to be met with a look of loneliness on his face.

Where were his wild monsters?

What happened to the promised Myriad Ghosts Night Parade?

Come and put some pressure on me!

Lin Chen's treasonous thought was so outrageous that even the Security Bureau Team Leader would have called it rebellious.

Everyone else avoided ghosts, but he was hunting them down!

Lin Chen finally realized.

After forming the Natal Bond Connection with the Door God card, he would also carry the Door Gods' aura of divinity, making him no different from a Door God standing in place.

He needed to think of other ways. He needed to recruit some "guests."

G-guests?!

Suddenly, Lin Chen thought of his new card, the "Gold-Consuming Black Shop."

Wasn't this hotel meant for entertaining guests!

And more importantly—

It could produce Flesh and Blood Buns!

These processed, refined creations of Flesh and Blood would be the ultimate temptation for Anomalous Creatures!

Lin Chen quickly bought some eerie corpse materials from the card market.

These common eerie object materials were incredibly cheap.

So, even though Lin Chen had little money left, he could still afford a few pounds.

But the problem was, who would be responsible for processing and cutting the meat?

Did Lin Chen have to do it himself?

Wait, since the Door God Temple had a Rat Spirit Temple Steward, Then this Crossroads Slope hotel should also have a proprietress!

It was none other than the infamous "Mother Yaksha," Sun Erniang!

This nickname had been passed down through the ages, sung by countless henpecked husbands.

Furthermore, it was an extremely fitting material for the [God of Wine's Maenad - Maenads].

Sun Erniang was a fiery, ferocious shrew, a ruthless character who could smile while chopping people into three pounds of filling for meat buns!

Her actions were consistent with those of the God of Wine's Maenads, who reveled in dismemberment, devouring alive, and raw food. They were practically the same person!

Although Lin Chen felt a bit exhausted, at this point, he could only—

Make a card on the spot!

He continued with the card-making process that was deeply ingrained in his mind, with all the materials prepared;

Visualizing in his mind the only three "heroines" from Water Margin:

"Her brows were filled with murderous intent, her eyes gleaming with ferocity.

A thick layer of face powder concealed her mischief; two heavy coats of rouge stained her disheveled hair.

Beneath her red skirt was a colorful bodice, and beside her yellow hair, a bright golden hairpin.

Bracelets caged the witch's arms, and her red shirt illuminated the Yaksha spirit!"

In an instant, a green card took shape:

Card Name: [Crossroads Slope Skinning Yaksha - Sun Erniang]

Type: Human / Hunter

Quality: Excellent Grade · Green Border · Two-Star

Traits:

[Skinning and Mincing] Sun Erniang's knife work is skilled. She automatically collects flesh and blood ingredients to make fragrant "Meat Buns," which have an "Enticing" effect, making guests' mouths water and their fingers twitch with desire.

[Hiding a Knife Behind a Smile] Sun Erniang is adept at welcoming and seeing off guests, flirting and selling charm, possessing extremely high emotional intelligence. She excels at using sweet talk to deceive enemies, lower their vigilance, and increase the success rate of traps, tricks, and poisons.

Hidden Traits:

[Fallen Evil Star] Sun Erniang is a Star Spirit descended to the mortal realm, possessing high spirituality and growth potential. She can evolve into a heroic spirit card.

Skills:

[Secretly Administering Medicine] Sun Erniang has skilled poisoning techniques. It requires the activation of items like "Methanol" or "Bewitching Wine" to inflict dizziness and intoxication on enemies.

[Bone Chopping Saber Technique] Sun Erniang's knife skills are superb, and her actions are ruthless. She excels at bone removal and dismemberment, her attacks easily hitting vital points and increasing the chance of crippling effects.

A capable woman dressed in a green gauze shirt and a red silk skirt appeared before Lin Chen;

Her expression was bold and unrestrained, her eyes like silken threads, and she gave Lin Chen a curtsy.

Lin Chen wasted no time. He found a well-connected location and established the [Gold-Consuming Black Shop - Crossroads Slope Happy Forest].

Sun Erniang's eyes lit up: "This must be my shop!"

As soon as she entered, she didn't need Lin Chen to lead the way. She went straight to the "Flesh Workshop" on the second floor, looking around and touching things with great joy.

Seeing that Sun Erniang was also an efficient person, Lin Chen quickly handed over the eerie corpse materials to her, asking her to make "Ghost Meat Buns."

"Just watch, my craftsmanship is hereditary!"

Soon, the fragrant "Ghost Meat Buns" were ready!

This Mother Yaksha truly made excellent meat buns!

They were large and plump, their fragrance spreading for miles!

If Lin Chen hadn't known what was inside, he himself would have started salivating just by the smell.

Next, it was the opening day for this black inn!

It didn't seek mortal customers, but rather, it welcomed eerie visitors!

Chapter 47: Dungeon Business Opportunity, Black Inn Economics!

As the saying goes: "At Big Tree Crossroads Slope, which guest dares to pass? The fat ones are cut for bun filling, the thin ones are used to fill the river."

But Lin Chen's inn does not feast mortals, but feasts spirits and gods!

Sun Erniang's ancestral secret recipe was indeed special. She also picked some Datura flowers from the backyard and added them to the filling;

The large buns, gathered like tender young children, were both fragrant and numbing;

The shop door was wide open, and the aroma wafted for miles;
