Chapter 19 The Future King of Kept Women
Chapter 19 The Future King of Kept Women
Honestly.
Since his rebirth, this was the first time Ye Tian had ever been so confused.
They thought Ye Tian didn't believe them.
Wang Nian then took out several more strange candles from his inventory to prove it.
"Brother Ye, you saved my life. Consider these eerie candles a token of my appreciation. They're not anything particularly valuable, but I don't know what else to give you besides these. Please don't find them offensive, Brother Ye."
He ignored Wang Nian's rambling.
Ye Tian also did not answer.
"Where did you get these ghost coins?"
After a moment of silence, Ye Tiancai finally voiced his doubts.
"Strange coins?"
Seemingly not expecting Ye Tian to ask such a question, Wang Nian still answered honestly.
"I just picked it up."
"Found it?" You can just pick this up like that?
"Yeah, I can pick up a few every time I enter a dungeon. If the Weird Shop hadn't opened, I wouldn't have known what Weird Coins were for."
As he spoke, Wang Nian took out a few strange coins.
In fact, this was not simply due to good luck, but was related to the talent that Wang Nian had awakened.
"The Way of Money: Your life will not be troubled by money."
Perhaps because he truly believed in Ye Tian, Wang Nian directly revealed all his talents.
The Way of Money?
As Ye Tian thought of something, his gaze toward Wang Nian gradually became incredulous.
"To be honest, I really don't know what the use of ghost coins is. When I entered the dungeon before, I thought I could use them to bribe the ghosts, but those ghosts completely ignored me and still tried to mess with me."
"If the shop hadn't appeared, I would have thought my talent was useless. Also, the shop only has two items: Ghost Candle and Ghost Incense. Although you can buy them without limit, their effects are not significant."
"Brother Ye, do you think my talent is terrible? If it weren't for you last time, I wouldn't have survived."
They didn't notice the change in Ye Tian's eyes.
Wang Nian continued talking to himself, venting his frustration. Clearly, Wang Nian genuinely didn't think his talent was any use. What was the point of picking up ghost coins if they didn't increase his strength?
"..."
No, you won't die even without me.
Ye Tian recognized who this Wang Nian was.
No wonder. The current Wang Nian is only slightly chubby, but the Wang Nian in my memory was a round and fat man. Moreover, back then, people basically didn't call him by his name anymore, but rather by his title.
It's you! Wang Nian, no, it should be Wang Nian the gigolo king!
"Is your dream to be a kept man?"
"Um?"
Wang Nian was stunned for a moment when he was suddenly told this.
He scratched his head and looked at Ye Tian with a puzzled expression.
"Brother Ye, how did you know? I did want to be a kept man before, since my family isn't well-off. But I also know that with my looks, I doubt any decent woman would be interested in me!"
"..."
He didn't fancy any respectable women, but he did fancy a strange one.
Although the details of what happened are unknown, Wang Nian was ultimately chosen by a Lord of Hell, thus solidifying his title as a gigolo.
Being a kept man is never a shameful thing.
not to mention.
If it weren't for Wang Nian at the time, who used his status as a kept man to mediate, the descent into hell would probably have happened even faster.
Regardless of the circumstances, Wang Nian can be considered a hero of that era.
But then, one hellish event after another occurred, and there was no news of this gigolo ever again. Some say that he was left in hell forever by the Lord of Hell and could never come out.
"It's okay, I believe you'll definitely be able to live off a woman in the future."
talking.
Ye Tian patted Wang Nian on the shoulder and nodded solemnly.
"Uh! Thank you!
I thanked them instinctively.
But something just doesn't feel right. Is this supposed to be encouraging?
,,,
"Everything was fine, why did it suddenly get foggy? Could something strange be about to appear?"
at the same time.
As Gu Xia and his group watched the sudden rise of the mist, a sense of panic inevitably arose in their hearts.
They became even more frightened when they noticed the crows circling overhead.
They couldn't help but gather around Gu Xia's side.
"Brother Gu Xia, you must protect me. Once I become a contractor, I will definitely listen to you."
They naturally regarded Gu Xia, their only contractor, as their protector.
"rest assured!"
Gu Xia spoke with a relaxed expression.
His eyes swept over the mist, but on the surface, he still pretended to be calm.
"It's just a level 5 dungeon. As a contractor, can't I handle it?"
These people had made up their minds to give this strange creature the contracted with, so naturally, nothing could happen to them.
"It's just a crow, you saw it."
talking.
The thin, bony arm was raised and pointed in the direction of the crow.
A bluish-green flame burned in the palm of his hand.
"Sizzle!"
Soon, the sizzling sound of flames burning echoed in Gu Xia's palm, causing Gu Xia's eyes to twitch in pain, but he still endured it and hurled the fireball at the crow.
"Bang!"
The crow struck by the flames exploded instantly, turning into tiny black particles that dissipated into the air.
Hiding his hands under his sleeves, Gu Xia spoke with an outwardly relaxed expression.
"See? It's just a crow. It's a piece of cake."
really.
No one noticed the abnormality in Gu Xia's palm; their only concern was the fireball Gu Xia had just unleashed.
"Hiss, is this the power I gained after the bizarre contract?"
"That's right, I made a contract with a charred corpse monster. After making the contract, I gained the ability to control monster fire."
Gu Xia's tone was not without smugness.
In terms of talent, he was mediocre, but with this strange fire, things were different. Even though every time he used it, Gu Xia felt a burning sensation, this feeling of being revered was wonderful.
Gu Xia was still completely obsessed with it, his vanity was overflowing.
"Doesn't that mean if we form a contract with that monster, we can also gain this power?"
Not to mention the girl, the other boys also had their eyes shining with excitement.
They've all started imagining scenes of controlling the eerie fire at will.
"Of course!"
Gu Xia spoke with certainty.
In his heart, however, he was unconvinced. A bunch of fools, you actually thought you could use this strange fire, believing whatever you were told. You deserve to be fooled by yourselves.
"As long as you behave, you'll get your share of the rewards!"
"Don't worry, Brother Gu Xia, we'll definitely listen to you!"
They all nodded hurriedly, afraid that if they nodded too late, they would miss the chance to make a contract with the strange entity.
"Alright, let's go. This dungeon will take a whole day to clear. Let's find a place to rest first."
"No problem, Brother Gu Xia!"
"Brother Gu Xia, are you tired? If you are, how about I carry you on my back?"
"I see an open space ahead, why don't we go there and rest for a bit?"
Several people eagerly surrounded Gu Xia.
After witnessing the methods of the Ghost Fire, they were even more convinced.
Gu Xia smiled smugly, feeling that it was worth risking being burned by the eerie fire to use his ability.
