Actually, the other gangs also send quite a few people to the Battle Corpse Sect every year. However, because the gangs sent weak people or because they had large numbers, nobody paid attention to it.

On the other hand, the Ghost Child Gang’s population was too small. However, every single member of the gang was an elite. The gang couldn’t afford sending these people to be corpse slaves. Therefore, the Ghost Child Gang came up with a scheme. The released news that they send ten people to the Battle Corpse Sect every year, which attracts rogue cultivators who want to join a sect. This allowed the gang to send corpse slaves to the Battle Corpse Sect without damaging the core strength of the gang.

To be honest, the approach of the Ghost Child Gang was the right one. Although the gang didn’t have a lot of members, its strength was very good compared to the other gangs. As for the lives of the rogue cultivators, the gang wouldn’t care.

The recruitment of the Ghost Child Gang was divided into two types. The first was the selection of who would become corpse slaves. When the gang recruits these people, they would only conduct a simple investigation. As for their identity or origin, the gang wouldn’t care.

The second type was like Zhao Hai’s recruitment. These were talents that entered the eyes of the gang. These people would be strong and the gang would be reluctant to send them out to die. The gang marked people like Zhao Hai as key talents to be trained.

Zhong Busan knew that if the Ghost Child Gang wanted to develop, it could only depend on the Battle Corpse Sect. It was impossible to depend on anyone else. Even if the gang has the ability to develop on its own, the Battle Corpse Sect wouldn’t give them the chance.

What Zhong Busan wanted to do now was to cultivate talents and send them to the Battle Corpse Sect. If the talent makes a name for themselves in the sect, the Ghost Child Gang would benefit greatly.

Zhao Hai was unaware of these matters. But he knew that it would be impossible to stay low-key once he joined the Ghost Child Gang. If he was too low-key, the Ghost Child Gang would think that he wasn’t fit to be nurtured, or that he was only working hard to join the Ghost Child Gang. In this case, the Ghost Child Gang might be annoyed and be angry.

Zhao Hai didn’t want such an unlucky outcome, so he had a plan. Even if he didn’t want to stand out too much, he can’t be too ordinary. Sometimes, being too ordinary would cause people to pay more attention to you.

A cultivator from the Ghost Child Gang led Zhao Hai to his new residence. When he entered the residence, Zhao Hai looked at the environment. The residence wasn’t bad. Since the Ghost Child Gang has a small population, each member has a lot of space for themselves. Zhao Hai was given his own personal courtyard.

But Zhao Hai knew this was not normal. The Ghost Child Sect wasn’t big enough to provide an ordinary member with their own courtyard. The reason Zhao Hai was given his own place was to make it more convenient to monitor him.

Zhao Hai was aware that his identity and origin would be an issue for the Ghost Child Gang. Therefore, the gang would definitely observe him. Zhao Hai understood the Ghost Child Gang’s actions. No gang would be at ease letting an unknown person enter their ranks. It was proper procedure to monitor him until the gang was certain that there was nothing wrong.

After Zhao Hai was led to his residence, he was given an identity token and then told about things in the gang that needed to be paid attention to. Then the person left Zhao Hai’s courtyard.

As he walked through his courtyard, Zhao Hai couldn’t help but smile. The courtyard was only a hundred square meters. Inside were stone tales and a few stone chairs, there was nothing else.

However, Zhao Hai was very satisfied with the courtyard. After walking around the courtyard twice, Zhao Hai entered the house. The small courtyard has three buildings. The main house has three rooms which were the living room, the bedroom, and the study. The left and right wings had a quiet room and additional living spaces. The design was the same on both sides.

Zhao Hai looked at the rooms and saw that they were very good. Although they weren’t big, they were enough to be liveable. Then Zhao Hai went to his bedroom and rested.

Zhao Hai stayed in his bedroom the entire day. It was only when dark came that Zhao Hai walked out. As soon as Zhao Hai walked out, the people monitoring him became nervous. They were tasked to observe Zhao Hai’s actions. They didn’t expect that Zhao Hai would stay in his room the entire day.

Resting in the morning and coming out during the night wasn’t a routine a normal person would do. The people monitoring Zhao Hai immediately focused. They didn’t know where Zhao Hai planned to go.

Zhao Hai walked out of his room and pushed the courtyard door open. Then he walked around the Ghost Child Gang’s territory. Since it was already dark, most of the people in the Ghost Child Gang have already rested. It took a while for Zhao Hai to meet a cultivator from the Ghost Child Gang. He immediately stepped forward and greeted him.

The people monitoring Zhao Hai didn’t know what he was doing. After walking towards the member of the Ghost Child Gang, Zhao Hai cupped his fist and said, “Senior Brother, I just joined the gang today. I don’t know where I should eat. I’d like Senior Brother to give me advice.”

The Ghost Child Gang member immediately understood what Zhao Hai was saying. He smiled at Zhao Hai and said, “So Junior Brother is asking about this. That’s simple. I don’t have anything to do right now. Let’s go to the cafeteria together and share a few cups.”

Zhao Hai stared, then he said, “The Gang’s cafeteria also offers drinks?”

The Ghost Child Gang member laughed and said, “Of course. The cafeteria is made for us. We can eat whenever we want and eat whatever we want. And it’s completely free.”

Hearing this, Zhao Hai smiled and said, “I see. I was ignorant. May I know Senior Brother’s name? If it weren’t for Senior Brother, I would have slept hungry.”’

The person smiled and said, “Junior Brother doesn’t need to be polite. My name is Wen Long. You can just call me Senior Brother Wen.”

Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, “This Junior Brother is named Zhao Ling. If Senior Brother needs anything in the future, please don’t hesitate to approach me. I’ll certainly do my best to help.”

Wen Long smiled when he heard Zhao Hai and then he said, “Then I’ll be impolite to Junior Brother when the time comes.” Then he didn’t talk anymore. Zhoa Hai looked at Wen Long’s appearance and knew that there was no friendship between ghost cultivators. If someone was too friendly, then it would be suspicious.

Seeing that Zhao Hai no longer replied, Wen Long felt relieved. Ghost Cultivators were morbidly suspicious individuals. They were afraid of harm coming to them. He only helped Zhao Hai because they were from the same gang. Moreover, the help he provided would only be superficial. If Zhao Hai was too enthusiastic, Wen Long would be doubtful of Zhao Hai’s purpose.

Before long, the two arrived at the Ghost Child Gang’s cafeteria. It must be said that the Ghost Child Gang’s cafeteria was very good. Its environment wouldn’t lose out to the restaurants outside. Moreover, there were people defending the cafeteria all year round.

The people preparing the food were humans and not red goblins. They were family members of the gang members who didn’t have any talent. Because their lives were connected to the gang and they were also paid well, these people were very attentive to the service they provided. This allowed the members of the Ghost Child Gang to have good meals.

When Zhao Hai and Wen Long entered the cafeteria, someone immediately walked towards them and bowed. The person seemed to be over 30 years old. He wore a uniform showing that he worked in the cafeteria. He looked at Wen Long and said, “I have seen Sir Wen. May I ask if Mister is a member of the gang, or a friend of Sir Wen?”

Wen Long smiled and said, “Brother Yue, this is a new member of our gang, Zhao Ling.”

Wen Long turned to Zhao Hai and said, “Zhao Ling, this is Brother Yue. He’s an old member of our Ghost Child Gang. He’s a family to the members of the gang. Don’t treat him rudely.”

Zhao Hai immediately replied, “I won’t dare. Big Brother Yue can rest assured, I’ll be polite all the time.”

Brother Yue quickly waved his hand and said, “I won’t dare. Sir, there’s no need to address me respectfully. Just call me Yue Lin. Mister, please have a seat. What do you want to eat?”

Wen Long smiled and said, “Brother Yue, I’ll leave it to the Master in charge. Tell him to give us four specialty dishes and two pots of wine.”

Yue Ling nodded and said, “Alright. Please wait a few moments. The food will be served soon.” After that, Wen Long and Zhao Hai took their seats. Yue Ling poured the two of them a cup of tea before leaving.

Looking at Yue Ling, Zhao Hai said, “I didn’t expect our gang to take care of family members. Even Brother Wen is polite to him.”

Wen Long smiled and said, “Even if you’re not polite to others, you need to be polite to Yue Ling. He’s not someone you can afford to offend. His status isn’t simple.”

Zhao Hai couldn’t help but ask, “What background does Yue Ling have?”

Wen Long smiled and said, “Yue Lin’s brother is the Gang Master’s direct disciple. In the entire gang, only a few people dared to offend that man. Because of this, Yue Ling became respected by the members of the gang.”

Zhao Hai wore an understanding expression and said, “I see. It seems like I have to be more respectful to Mister Yue.”

Wen Long replied, “There’s no need. Just treat him normally. Mister Yue isn’t one to bully people. If he is, he wouldn’t have survived for long in the gang.”

Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, “But no matter what, I cannot offend Mister Yue. Thank you, Senior Brother Wen. If not for you, I would have unknowingly offended Mister Yue.”

Wen Long just smiled and didn’t say anything. His appearance showed that he accepted Zhao Hai’s words. Wen Long’s reactions made Zhao Hai understand the internal matters of the sect.
