The following day, Zhou Wuji, the mayor of Dubian Town, personally visited Ma Feifei and explained his purpose.

The meaning is simple: they hope that Ma Feifei's million-dollar bounty mission will be stopped, because if Ma Feifei continues like this, Dubian Town will be destroyed by those cultivators in just a few days.

After all, the population base is too large. Ninety percent of the four or five hundred thousand people are cultivators, and most of them are cultivators at the Spirit Ancestor or Spirit King level, which can be considered as intermediate level.

If all these people were to actually fight, Zhou Wuji would have a hard time handling it.

Upon hearing this, Ma Feifei exclaimed, "How can this be? If this mission stops, not only will we not be able to obtain the Tianshu, but we also won't be able to deal with the ghosts and monsters in Dubian Town. As long as Ma Feifei hasn't collected all ninety-nine Tianshu Fragment, ghosts and monsters will keep emerging from the book 'Strange Tales from Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio' and causing trouble around Dubian Town."

However, Zhou Wuji was not wrong either. If things continued this way, Dubian Town would indeed be demolished by those cultivators.

Therefore, Ma Feifei had to come up with a way to keep the bounty mission going while ensuring the safety of Dubian Town.

As for how to find it, of course you just need to ask the system.

After explaining his predicament in detail to Zhou Wuji, and with Ma Feifei's assurance, Zhou Wuji agreed to wait and see, waiting for Ma Feifei to come up with a solution.

After Zhou Wuji left, Ma Feifei quickly ran to the backyard.

At this moment, in the backyard, Yun Qingyang was drawing talismans. Unlike yesterday, Yun Qingyang directly controlled them with Spiritual Power today, and could draw hundreds of talismans at once. At this speed, she could draw hundreds of thousands of talismans a day.

It has to be said that Yun Qingyang was really going all out to earn some Spirit Crystal.

Without disturbing Yun Qingyang, Ma Feifei sat in the rocking chair and began to consult the system panel.

A moment later, the system provided an answer.

"The Ballpoint Pen in the Bookstore has special properties; you can use it to draw Ballpoint Pen, which can trigger Alternate Dimension Battlefield."

"Alternate Dimension Battlefield?" Looking at the system's reply, Ma Feifei frowned, then suddenly seemed to remember something and asked, "Shouldn't talismans only work with chicken blood? Does Ballpoint Pen have the same effect?"

The system was silent for a moment before replying, "Yes, but the alternate dimension effect will only occur if the host manually draws the outline."

Ma Feifei was speechless for a moment, and subconsciously exited the system panel, glancing at Yun Qingyang who was diligently drawing talismans.

In other words, from this moment on, Yun Qingyang's talismans can no longer be sold...

"I feel terrible, Ma Fei!" Ma Feifei lay on the rocking chair, looking melancholy.

Ma Feifei thought that if he went to Yun Qingyang now and said, "Sorry, I don't want these talismans you drew..."

Ma Feifei might be beaten to death.

"But if we don't tell..." Ma Feifei glanced at the stack of talismans next to Yun Qingyang, estimating there were over 100,000. Based on the purchase price Ma Feifei had previously set for her, it was about one million Spirit Crystal...

Moreover, Yun Qingyang continued drawing talismans at this prolific pace. If we don't stop Yun Qingyang from doing so, it might not just be a matter of being beaten to death; we might not even have a grave left.

"Qingyang!" Thinking of this, Ma Feifei called out to Yun Qingyang.

"Speak." Yun Qingyang replied simply, using both hands to manipulate Spiritual Power and draw talismans on hundreds of sheets of paper.

"Hehe." Ma Feifei stood up, walked to Yun Qingyang's side, and said with a smile, "Xiao Qingqing..."

Yun Qingyang glanced at Ma Feifei in surprise and said, "You called me?"

Ma Feifei nodded and said seriously, "Of course, who else would I call?"

"My name is Yun Qingyang, not Xiao Qingqing," Yun Qingyang replied earnestly.

Ma Feifei paused for a moment, then, seeing Yun Qingyang's serious expression, he realized that this mother dragon had some intellectual problems...

At that moment, he didn't dwell on these things with Yun Qingyang, and said with a grin, "Qingyang, aren't you tired of making all these talismans all day?"

Yun Qingyang shook his head and said, "I'm not tired. Why would I be tired if I can make money?"

If before Yun Qingyang only made talismans out of interest in ghost hunting, now Yun Qingyang has completely made it her most important task at this stage. Especially after discovering last night and this morning that she had made over ten Yun Qingyang talismans and earned over a million Spirit Crystal, she was overjoyed and no longer complained about being tired.

Seeing Yun Qingyang's Yun Qingyang, Ma Feifei knew he had to stop her from continuing to draw talismans; otherwise, the more talismans Yun Qingyang drew, the more tragic Ma Feifei's death would become.

Thinking of this, Ma Feifei said, "Wait a moment while I paint; I want to do a bigger deal with you."

"Whoosh~"

As the spiritual energy dissipated, Yun Qingyang stopped drawing talismans and looked at Ma Feifei expectantly, asking, "What kind of business?"

Ma Feifei took out Tianshu Fragment her spatial bag and asked, "Do you remember this?"

Yun Qingyang nodded and said, "Yes, it fell from the ghost when we were killing it the night before last."

Yun Qingyang didn't hunt down any evil spirits last night. Instead, she made talismans in the courtyard. Although the ghost hunt last night caused quite a stir, the long street near the Mysterious Bookstore remained completely quiet. All the cultivators selectively avoided this street, so although Yun Qingyang knew about the Uproar last night, she didn't know the reason. Being indifferent to everything, she wouldn't be so bored as to go and find out the cause.

In addition, Ma Feifei had not yet mentioned the million-dollar bounty mission to Yun Qingyang, so Yun Qingyang was not yet aware that Ma Feifei had issued that million-dollar bounty mission.

"Here's the thing, you continue to help me hunt down vengeful spirits and obtain one of these fragments, and I'll give you one million Spirit Crystal, how about that?" Ma Feifei said.

Upon hearing this, Yun Qingyang's eyes lit up, and he asked, "Really?"

Ma Feifei nodded and said, "Of course, no deception. One of these fragments is worth one million Spirit Crystal. Let's say you hunt a hundred fierce ghosts in one night, you can get a hundred of these fragments. You can calculate how much money you can get from me. It's much better than drawing talismans here."

Yun Qingyang tilted her head, gently counting with her fingers, then looked at Ma Feifei and said seriously, "You're lying to me, you don't have that many Spirit Crystal at all."

Ma Feifei was instantly dumbfounded. What was this mother dragon thinking? Was it even important that I had Spirit Crystal to pay? Ah!

"Don't worry, I, Ma Feifei, can definitely afford it. If you don't believe me, you can go to the drawer now and see. It contains all the Bookstore's profits for this period of time, more than 110 million," Ma Feifei said patiently.

"Alright, I'll catch ghosts at night and draw talismans during the day!" Yun Qingyang said happily.
