Chapter 255 The Exploding Player Exchange Forum!

Soon, two hours passed.

Si Yan began to spend ghost coins, increasing his stay here.

The consumption of ghost coins was not small.

Another hour passed.

This hour cost Si Yan tens of thousands of ghost coins.

This was considered a small sum.

Si Yan didn’t feel pained; as long as Ying Rui reached Ghost Lord, the consumption of these ghost coins would be worth it.

Not to mention other benefits.

The feedback Si Yan would receive through the contract after Ying Rui reached Ghost Lord would be immense!

By now, the points required to strengthen 1 point of attribute were too many.

Therefore, after attributes generally exceeded 200, many powerful Players would save their points to buy various items.

Then they would find ways to obtain treasures that could strengthen their bodies in the Horror Space.

The improvements from those treasures were generally significant.

For Si Yan, there was another way.

That was the feedback from Du Siyu, Xia Yuruo, and others with whom he had signed contracts.

This kind of feedback provided a continuous and substantial improvement.

And after their strength made significant progress, there would be even greater feedback.

What’s more, with Ying Rui reaching Ghost Lord, the chances of successfully hijacking the wedding this time would be maximized.

As for whether the Ying Family would change their minds after she reached Ghost Lord, Si Yan thought it was a bit uncertain.

Judging by the performance of these two families, unless Ying Rui could become an Undying Bone in one go.

Which is a Half-step Ghost Saint!

Otherwise, the Ying Family would still marry her off.

Her reaching Ghost Lord might even be seen by the Ying Family as a bargaining chip.

They could use it to gain greater benefits when exploring the Zombie World ruins of Shouyang Mountain.

Therefore, rather than hoping the Ying Family would change their minds, it was more straightforward to simply hijack the wedding.

Afterward, Si Yan fully activated his skills for Ying Rui.

Another hour passed.

It was the fourth hour.

The fifth hour passed, and Ying Rui was still continuing her assault on Ghost Lord.

All the way until the eighth hour.

The ghost coins Si Yan spent reached over a hundred thousand.

Over a hundred thousand ghost coins!

For Si Yan now, it might not be much, but for ordinary Players, this was a huge sum.

The effect also came!

In the eighth hour, a golden light suddenly shot up from Ying Rui’s body.

The entire room was instantly filled with golden light!

Fortunately, Ying Rui had already made arrangements for this room, and since it was used to confine her, it was very sturdy.

The golden light did not burst out of the room.

Ying Rui finally broke through to Ghost Lord!

She officially became a Low-tier Ghost Lord!

Her strength was even greater than that of a Vampire Duke!

The strength of Vampires also lies in their bodies, as well as their powerful recovery and perception abilities.

However, although a Vampire’s body is strong, it is not as tough as a zombie’s.

But Vampires are very agile.

Ding! Ying Rui successfully achieved a breakthrough with the host’s help, you received contract feedback, your body has been greatly strengthened, and your skill, Iron Body, has been greatly enhanced!

The system prompt appeared.

Si Yan looked.

The feedback he received from Ying Rui’s breakthrough to Ghost Lord this time was very significant.

His physique and strength each increased by nearly 20 points.

A total of 40 points.

Si Yan opened the Player attribute panel.

Physique: 185

Vitality: 128

Strength: 152

Agility: 118

Spirit: 145

Resistance: Curse Resistance: 35%, Fear Resistance: 18%

Si Yan saw that his physique had already reached 185, close to 200.

His strength also broke through 152.

This wave was very good.

“Mr., I’ve broken through!”

Ying Rui opened her eyes, her eyes full of joy.

“Mr., should I tell the Family Head? I feel that even if I tell them, they will most likely still make me marry.”

Ying Rui added.

Her feeling was quite accurate.

Si Yan said, “Hmm, don’t say anything yet, don’t reveal the news of your breakthrough. On the day of the wedding, I’ll come to pick you up!”

“Mr.!”

Ying Rui threw herself into Si Yan’s arms.

“Ying Rui will wait for Mr.!”

She whispered softly.

Her tone was light and firm.

Ying Rui’s words were soft.

But it was something she had already decided.

Si Yan placed his hand on her head, gently stroking her hair, and softly “hmm”-ed.

No solemn promises were needed, nor any more vows of eternal love.

On the day of her wedding, Si Yan just needed to come and take her away!

“You consolidate for a bit, I’m leaving first.”

Si Yan said softly.

He had already stayed an extra 6 hours beyond the contract time, and now, every minute he stayed cost nearly 1000 ghost coins.

Fortunately, this 8-hour interaction allowed him to personally watch Ying Rui’s strength stabilize.

Ying Rui nodded.

Si Yan gently kissed her forehead, a gesture that made the well-bred Ying Rui feel a little shy.

“I’m leaving~”

Then, Si Yan chose to return.

Soon, he was back in his villa.

In the villa, as soon as Si Yan returned, he didn’t even take a shower and lay on the bed, falling into a deep sleep.

Continuously activating skills for 8 hours, even with Si Yan’s current mental strength, the consumption was considerable.

When he woke up, it was already the next day.

Si Yan got up feeling refreshed.

After breakfast, Si Yan summoned Du Siyu, Xia Yuruo, Ellie Ella, and Virginia.

As for Liu Yiyi, Si Yan did not summon her.

Because Si Yan needed to get some medicinal herbs from her through the contract, and he also needed to give Liu Yiyi some instructions privately.

If the Song Family didn’t send an invitation, he would also need Liu Yiyi to go near the Song Family, so that after Si Yan arrived through the contract, he could release the Death Spirit Monarch in the Song Family.

“Teacher~”

“Principal~”

“Mr. Si~”

“Brother~”

Thus, soon, Si Yan’s villa became incredibly lively.

Seeing Si Yan, Ellie Ella, Du Siyu, and Xia Yuruo all became very happy.

Virginia was also very happy.

Although she had only recently separated from Si Yan, she was very willing to stay by Si Yan’s side all the time.

Si Yan stroked their little heads.

He chatted happily with them in the villa.

“Principal, we made a lot of money this month! Once our liquid funds increase a bit more, we can give the Principal dividends!”

Xia Yuruo said sweetly.

“Xia Yuruo, you’ve done very well. There’s no rush for dividends; I don’t have many places to spend money right now. You focus on expanding first.”

Si Yan said.

“Mm! Some people had ideas when they saw us getting bigger, but luckily we have Si Yu!”

Xia Yuruo added.

Currently, although the Dark Group has many fierce ghosts, these ghost students are not particularly strong.

Fortunately, Du Siyu’s current strength is quite formidable, and her power is also increasing very quickly.

With a Ghost Master in charge, at the current scale of the Dark Group, there won’t be too many problems.

If the Dark Group’s scale were to expand further, it would require even greater strength.

“Teacher, recently I sensed the location of a Ghost Master. I’m preparing to take the initiative.”

Du Siyu said.

“Good. Before you act, communicate with me. Act when I have time.”

Si Yan said.

Du Siyu nodded gently.

Following that, Ellie and Ella also caught up with Si Yan.

As for Virginia, who had just spent several days with Si Yan, she was very sensible and didn’t speak too much; being by Si Yan’s side was enough for her.

The entire villa was filled with joy.

While Si Yan and the women were gathered in the villa, the Player Forum had already become incredibly lively.

After several Players from the Soul Split Group returned, they reported the situation of this instance.

Then, the Soul Split Group released the details of this instance on the Player Forum.

This was how many Eastern Players learned about the Western Players’ conspiracy this time.

However, the method adopted by the Soul Split Group this time was to release information in segments.

Releasing information bit by bit.

Through this method, the heat of this incident was constantly rising.

What they released first, of course, was the Western Players’ conspiracy this time.

“My goodness, the Western Players were so insidious this time!”

“Dozens of Western Players? My heavens, and it’s a Ninth-level instance! If they got an SSS rating, the impact would be huge!”

“Yes, looking at it, it seems like half of the West was mobilized~”

Below this post, the number of replies had already exceeded 100,000.

But this post wasn’t the hottest.

Because while Si Yan was returning from the Zombie World and sleeping soundly, a new post from the Soul Split Group had already gone viral.

This post only mentioned Si Yan.

But it didn’t mention too much, only that Si Yan entered the instance.

It also mentioned that as soon as he entered the instance, a Vampire Duke came over to establish a connection, and that Si Yan was also in this instance.

“My goodness, Si Yan is also in this instance?”

“Even a Vampire Duke is so enthusiastic towards him?”

“Do you think Si Yan can handle these Western Players in this instance?”

“Do I even need to say it? Are you blind? Haven’t you seen Si Yan has already topped the Newcomer Leaderboard at #1!”

“Wow! Awesome!”
