Chapter 29
C29 – Whiterobed Ghost Troop
“Qiang Nantie, who might this be?”
Huamo had barely lifted her gaze when she was met with the sight of a stunning woman whose beauty rivaled her own, standing right behind Qiang Nantie.
They were aware that the Bronze Bird Terrace had the power to summon individuals like themselves, yet the specifics of how many and their origins remained a mystery.
The Whispering Land held no records of their existence, for they were not of this world.
“Allow me to introduce her. This is Bi Yu. She hails from the same world as you, although you two have never met.”
“Sister, greetings.” Bi Yu stepped forward with a graceful bow to Huamo.
The manner in which Huamo addressed Qiang Nantie spoke volumes about their special connection.
“Hello, I’m Huamo. You’re truly beautiful,” she complimented with genuine admiration. Huamo was confident in her own beauty, but Bi Yu’s appearance was equally breathtaking.
“Sister, you flatter me. You’re the one who’s truly stunning,” Bi Yu responded in kind.
Observing their mutual adoration, Qiang Nantie interjected, “You’re both gorgeous, let’s leave it at that. I’ll go ahead and boost Bi Yu’s level now.”
Your Soul Coins decrease by 100, Bi Yu’s level ascends from Level 0 to Level 1.
Your Soul Coins decrease by 200, Bi Yu’s level climbs from Level 1 to Level 2.
Your Soul Coins decrease by 300, Bi Yu’s level advances from Level 2 to Level 3.

Introduction: She has undergone an evolution through mysterious energy, resulting in her basic attributes experiencing a tenfold increase. Renowned as the second most beautiful woman in the Three Kingdoms, she is also revered as the Nymph of River.
Qiang Nantie, upon reviewing Bi Yu’s attributes, noticed that her growth trajectory was distinctly different from Huamo’s. While Huamo’s attributes were increasing evenly, Bi Yu’s development was concentrated on her spiritual growth.
Her water-based spells had gained an extra boost. Moving forward, he would certainly seek out water (ice) elemental skills and the appropriate cultivation techniques for her.
As for Huamo, she had the capability to learn any skill.
“Thank you, my Lord!” Bi Yu, feeling an immense power surge within her, was overjoyed.
“Bi Yu, your luck is exceptionally high, making you the ideal candidate for opening treasure chests. From now on, that responsibility will be yours,” Qiang Nantie declared.
Bi Yu’s base luck was triple that of Huamo’s. Upon reaching Level 6, her luck soared to an astonishing 42 points, dwarfing Huamo’s 22 points. It was undeniable; Bi Yu’s luck was extraordinarily high.
Currently lacking any magical skills, he felt Bi Yu’s impressive attributes were not being fully utilized.
“Yes, my Lord,” Bi Yu responded before seeking Huamo’s guidance on treasure chest unlocking.
Taking hold of a chest, Bi Yu set to work on opening it.
Congratulations, you have received 4 Soul Coins.
Congratulations, you have received 4 Soul Coins.
Congratulations, you have obtained a Boar Dagger.
Congratulations, you have obtained a Purple Spirit Blade.
Qiang Nantie was astounded by the news. Bi Yu had managed to extract twice the number of Soul Coins from an ordinary wooden chest compared to Huamo, not to mention securing two pieces of equipment consecutively.
“I’ve struck gold,” Qiang Nantie exclaimed with delight.
Item: Purple Spirit Blade
Quality: Bronze
Durability: 50/50
Attribute 1: Strength +5
Attribute 2: Inflicts a tearing effect
Equipment Requirement: Strength 5
Description: The purple blade is capable of cleaving mountains and rending the earth asunder.
With the Purple Spirit Blade boasting an additional tearing effect over his current weapon, Qiang Nantie naturally equipped it without hesitation.
The Boar Dagger was merely a common piece of equipment with little to no utility.
“I’ll go get supper ready for you all.”
Huamo was aware of Qiang Nantie’s penchant for a late-night snack. Since she no longer needed to open the treasure chest, she set out to prepare the meal.
Qiang Nantie stepped aside and retrieved the barracks, hoping it would prove to be a lucky charm for him.
The barracks shimmered into existence, a beacon of light hovering over the territory. Its transformation, courtesy of the vibrant spatial powers, yielded an entirely new structure.
“The barracks have evolved into the White-robed Ghost Troop.”
“White-robed Ghost Troop?”
For a moment, Qiang Nantie was puzzled by the nature of this new building. He eagerly scanned the description.
Building: White-robed Ghost Troop
Level: 1
Upgrade Requirement: 300 spirit coins
Grade: SSS (0/3)
Upgrade Requirement for Grade: 3 Grade SS barracks
Defense: 300/300
Attributes: For every 1,000 Soul Coins spent, one White-robed Ghost Troop can be summoned, with a current maximum of 10.
Introduction: Under the command of Lee Ling, this army would be unbeatable!
“The White Robed Army, no less!”
Qiang Nantie’s eyes went wide with excitement, and he burst into laughter. “I’ve struck it incredibly lucky this time!”
In the annals of history, the White Robed Army, under Lee Ling’s leadership, was destined for greatness. Despite numbering only seven thousand, their military exploits were nothing short of legendary.
During the Battle of Steelpost, they vanquished Teng Jiejing’s force of 70,000. They went on to seize Riverfell, defeat Qu Yuzhuang at Castlereach, rout the 70,000-strong forces of Mao Zhenghan and Yingpeng, and then crush Qu Yi’s massive army of 300,000, paving their way into Sleetcrest. Henceforth, the White Robed Army ascended to mythic status.
All the while, Lee Ling’s forces remained a steadfast contingent of 7,000.
Qiang Nantie was brimming with excitement.
“I wonder if this structure has the power to summon Lee Ling himself. If it does, the advantages would be immense!”
However, the chances of the barracks summoning a hero were exceedingly slim.
And even if the barracks did manage to call forth a hero, there was no guarantee it would be Lee Ling.
“This force is formidable, but the cost is steep.”
With a sense of resignation, Qiang Nantie gazed at the building before him. His only option now was to focus on leveling up.
