In this high-martial game world, the technology tree was fairly advanced. Qi Jiguang's [Five Thunder Divine Mechanism] had already become a real revolver, and the power of the swivel cannons would probably be greatly enhanced as well.
But unless the fuse ignited instantly and the muzzle was pressed right against his face, cannonballs could not hit him with his ninth-level "Demonic Shadow Doppelganger."
This was a world where one man could be an army.
However much firearms increased in power, they could hardly threaten true masters.
"Sure. Let me know when you have a finished product. I'd like to see it."
Zhang Chengfeng readily agreed.
He had originally wanted to invite Cao Jinxing to dinner, but upon hearing that he already had an engagement-and with the Ghost Market Huang Family's Eldest Miss, no less-he said no more. A beauty had invited him, after all.
Zhang Chengfeng sat for a while, then took his leave when it was about time. Cao Jinxing changed clothes and headed for the Ghost Market with Fourteen.
Carp Mountain was still the same Carp Mountain.
The Ghost Market, however, was no longer what it had once been.
As soon as Cao Jinxing entered, he could clearly feel how much more harmonious the atmosphere had become. Ghost Guards patrolled the streets, vendors large and small behaved themselves, and people bustled to and fro.
Exotic flowers and herbs grew along the streets and alleys, filling the air with fragrance.
Cao Jinxing passed through the red flowers and green trees toward the Green Jade Tower at the center.
The Green Jade Tower was no longer merely the Huang Family's flagship establishment from the days when the Three Families had shared control of the Ghost Market. It was now the largest marketplace for rare treasures in the entire Ghost Market.
