Chapter 690 - 28: As Long as There’s Love, It’s Not a Problem (Part 2)

"What? Why is my information useless? Wenwen managed to trade her intelligence for something, why can’t I..."A white-haired Tengu girl angrily shouted, slamming the table with her palms forcefully. Is this discrimination? How outrageous!

"Please calm down, Miss. It’s because someone has already submitted this information beforehand, so it cannot be submitted again unless you can provide additional relevant details..." The receptionist behind the table, Miss Doll, replied calmly.

"Ugh, it can’t be submitted again..." The major blow left the white-haired girl half-hearted, although it makes sense upon reflection, but would Wenwen really leave them a chance?

"Exactly, so before submitting intelligence-related information, please check this page to see if the intelligence you want to submit is duplicated..."

"D-damn! Wenwen has already submitted all our information!" The white-haired Tengu girl checked and was shocked, exclaiming in disbelief, as cries of despair echoed from other reception windows.

"..."

Standing on the railing deck, Gu Mo squinted slightly and smiled gently.

Maybe Miss Aya Shameimaru made a profit, but he wasn’t at a loss either. This could only be done once, and other Tengus couldn’t replicate this kind of tactic.

Next, if they wanted to exchange for their desired goods, they would have to offer other items, like materials, tools, spell knowledge, and so on. — Of course, "zero dollar purchase" was also an option, but naturally, such a thing wouldn’t happen.

As several days passed with the sun rising and the moon setting.

The chaotic scene persisted for almost half a month, seemingly showing no signs of stopping.

Due to someone’s maliciously imposed purchase limits to create a hot-selling atmosphere, the shopping efficiency was greatly delayed, and the Tengus hadn’t gotten what they wanted even until now. Moreover, the half-month time was enough for news to spread further, with other demons gradually appearing.

This resulted in an even more crowded scene, almost impenetrable, making it hard to move an inch.

Even the ghosts on Demon Mountain seemed to have sobered up at last. Hearing the news, out of curiosity or interest, or just to join in the fun, they flocked over. For the first time, near half a month after opening, Gu Mo finally saw the figure of a ghost.

He didn’t even know how to comment on this situation.

Truly, aren’t they just a bunch of drunkards? How many days in the year are they sober?

On this night, as usual, he stood at the railing at the bow of the ship, looking down at the bustling scene below, pondering something when a familiar light laugh came from behind: "It looks like things are going well, I thought it was just your wishful thinking, but you managed to open the market..."

"Cater to the interests and go with the flow. After all, women’s money is always the easiest to earn, grasp the key, and it’s all good. I just exert the main effort; leave the rest to miracles."

Gu Mo glanced back, smiling as well.

"But, Zi, you haven’t been here for several days. I thought I somehow offended you and made you angry..."

Sitting on the crescent gap, posed like a classic witch sitting on the moon, the monster maiden’s golden hair swayed in the night wind. Hearing this, she lightly covered the lower half of her face with a fan, her eyes slightly evasive: "How could that be? I’ve just been a bit busy lately, now finally having some spare time..."

"Is that so?"

The Daoist in moon-white robes, looking like an exiled immortal under the moonlight, smiled, seemingly unconvinced.

"A-alright, let’s not talk about this. By the way, can you still handle it now..."

The monster maiden unconsciously changed the topic, glancing at the bustling scene below.

"You’re prepared, right? There will be more people coming later."

"That’s not a problem, I have prepared for a long time, won’t make such novice mistakes." Gu Mo replied confidently, then recalled something with a bit of a headache, "But going forward, I’ll have to think of a way, I’m considering whether to find a demon clan to collaborate with..."

Even with abundant stock, there will eventually be a day it runs out.

He confided his dilemma to the monster maiden, hoping to get her advice, as Zi’s knowledge of demons surpassed his—

Besides the unreliable Tengus and ghosts, she should be able to recommend some reliable partners.

Sure enough, after pondering briefly, Yakumo Zi closed her fan and pointed downstream: "According to your requirements, there might be a good demon clan nearby. There’s a Kappa tribe downstream, they’re peculiar, very fond of imitating and manufacturing various human tools, quite passionate about this..."

They’re naturally appreciative and interested in this field, making them very suitable for developing manufacturing industries.

At the very least, they’re more reliable than the two clans on Demon Mountain.

"The Kappa, is it? Let me think..." Gu Mo gently nodded, lost in thought. If Zi’s suggestion was sound, then it might be an option.

But would this result in a bizarre scenario later?

A Tengu tribe with a developed news industry?

A Kappa tribe with advanced technology?

What kind of advanced civilization, ancient science age construction is this on Demon Mountain? At the thought of this strange yet intriguing scenario, Gu Mo couldn’t help but chuckle a bit.

In this brief silence, the monster maiden sitting across on the gap made a series of subtle expressions, hesitated a bit, then casually said: "Speaking of which, about that person you wanted to give a gift to last time... what kind of person is she?"

In this half a month, she actually went back to think deeply, reflecting on her strange feelings at the time, reaching a conclusion.

As for this question now, it’s because she couldn’t help feeling subtly concerned, maybe a bit of a potential competitive curiosity, so she wanted to ask clearly.

"The person I want to give a gift to, what kind of person? How should I tell you?" Gu Mo gazed into her eyes, then turned to look at the moonlight still cascading from the sky, thinking seriously, "She’s actually a ghost, always very quiet..."

"A ghost?" The monster maiden was taken aback.

"Yes, strictly speaking, she’s a half-demon..." Gu Mo thought for a moment, looking at the ghosts down below, he added.

"H-half-demon? Yakumo Zi slightly frowned, seemingly more perplexed.

"..."

"..."

Gu Mo fell silent for a moment; it’s too early in this period, with demons and humans both in relatively early stages, so the concept of a half-demon hadn’t even appeared?

He sighed and explained: "A half-demon is a hybrid of a demon and a human, not strictly limited to this definition, it could be human and elf, human and demon, human and ghost, one half human blood, the other half not..."

"Huh huh huh?"

Yakumo Zi seemed startled: "Is this even possible?"

"Of course it’s possible." Gu Mo gave her a hearty smile, raising a thumbs-up, speaking handsomely, "As long as there’s love, it’s not a problem."

In the next moment, he turned his head instinctively, spotting not far away—

The silver-haired girl, like him, hadn’t come out in half a month, stood there at some point, looking at him with a strange expression, seemingly pensive.
