This place was desolate. The mountain range stretched out and was covered in white snow. There were few people here, and the land was extremely red.
On the crimson red land, there was almost no grass growing.
At the end of the wilderness, there was an endless primeval forest shrouded in white fog.
Here, the only place that could give people a sense of vitality was an old and dilapidated huge city.
"City Lord Max, how much do you want to sell this city for?”
In the city, a young man with black eyes and black hair, who was actually wearing a Daoist robe, slowly spoke to the person opposite him.
Sitting in front of him was a fat man with a big belly. The fat man had blonde hair and blue eyes. His facial features were almost squeezed together. He even dressed like a 14th or 15th century European.
"Honorable eastern adventurer, do you really intend to buy this city?”
The mayor of Max City suppressed the urge in his heart and asked the young man in front of him.
He had long wanted to take action, but unfortunately, no one took over because this city was almost hopeless. It was almost a dead city, and no one was willing to take over this city.
According to the laws of the Chubby Kingdom, if he paid enough taxes this year, he would be executed.
However, where was he going to get so many gold coins? Ever since the two Fire Dragons fought here more than ten years ago, not a single blade of grass grew here. No crops could be planted anymore. The people starved to death, migrated, and fled.
He had even planned to lead his entire family to abandon the hereditary position of City Lord this year and flee to a neighboring country.
He did not expect that rain would fall from the sky. The God of Creation actually sent such a mysterious silly kid to him and actually took the initiative to buy this hopeless dead city from him.
"Nonsense, just name your price. After you name your price, take your family and guards and scram as far away as you can!”
Ye Tian said impatiently.
"Respected Mr. Ye, don't be angry. As long as you give me this price, you will be the city lord of this damn…Max City!”
Mayor Max quickly raised a finger and said in a hurry. He was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat.
"How much exactly?"
Ye Tian was getting more and more impatient.
"100 gold coins!"
Mayor Max gritted his teeth, greed in his eyes. He was taking a gamble and scamming this hothead.
"A broken city and a dead city is sold at such a high price. It's up to you to sell it for ten gold coins!”
Ye Tian snorted.
"Good! Deal!"
Max hurriedly said, afraid that Ye Tian would go back on his word. Even if Ye Tian was willing to take over the City Lord position, he would be willing to pay him no money, let alone earn ten Gold Coins.
He calculated in his heart that once this hothead signed the contract, he would become the city lord. At that time, if he could not pay the tax, it would have nothing to do with him. The one who was sent to the guillotine was this hothead, and he became his scapegoat.
"I don't have gold coins, but gold is fine, right?”
Ye Tian calmly said, pulling out a fist-sized piece of gold from his pocket. It was a dazzling golden light.
"Yes, of course…"
Mayor Max quickly snatched the gold nugget and bit it a few times. After confirming that it was real, he said happily.
Such a large piece of gold was definitely worth more than ten gold coins. He was going to make a killing.
"Respected Mr. Ye, as long as you use your blood to sign your name on this city heir contract. From now on, you are the only legal heir to this city…"
The mayor hurriedly pulled out a sheepskin scroll and handed it to Ye Tian, afraid that he would go back on his word.
"Alright!"
Ye Tian took the parchment and lightly cut his finger with a dagger, signing his name.
Miraculously, Max's name disappeared from the scroll and Ye Tian's name appeared.
A magical world!
Ye Tian couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
"Haha…city lord Ye, you're the city lord now. I'll gather the people and announce you as the new city lord. Then, I'll leave immediately…"
After seeing Ye Tian sign, the Mayor couldn't control his joy anymore, as if he had been freed from a curse and couldn't help but laugh.
"Alright, there aren't many people here. Quickly take your family and leave this place!”
Ye Tian put away the scroll and calmly spoke to Max, but he was sneering in his heart. He had already been in this world for a few days, so how could he not know the situation in this city?
However, it was precisely this kind of city that met his current requirements.
As for City Lord Max, if he thought that he had made a fortune, he was completely wrong.
The gold nugget was real, but it only had a shelf life of two days. He had used the immature Golden Touch on it. After two days, when the spell disappeared, it became an ordinary stone.
"Okay, okay…I'll leave immediately, immediately…"
Max quickly nodded and left the city lord's mansion in a hurry. He really couldn't wait to leave this desperate place.
"Brother Daoist, just let me eat that fatty. Why waste so much time on him?”
At this moment, a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl emerged from Ye Tian's shadow and spoke in disdain.
From her appearance, she was slim and elegant. She was in the prime of her youth and had an exquisite face. She was definitely a beauty.
However, her skin was extremely pale, so pale that it was terrifying. She was draped in blood-red clothes, just like a malicious ghost.
Yes, it was!
She was really a malicious ghost, and an extremely ferocious one at that!
Ye Tian, on the other hand, was a Daoist, a descendant of the Maoshan Sect, and his occupation was catching ghosts.
When he ferried this little loli malicious ghost again, he actually didn't ferry her to the underworld. Instead, he ferried her to this magical foreign world, and he was also sucked over.
Because this malicious ghost had already been influenced by him, they came to this unfamiliar place and relied on each other.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully finding a resting place for the ghost. The Ghost Raising System has been officially activated!”
At this moment, a mysterious voice rang out in Ye Tian's mind, causing him to heave a sigh of relief and smile.
