When Gu Xi returned to Yalidov City, nearly four hours had passed.

After leaving the Human Market, Gu Xi once again visited the Corpse Market that Tang Shuang had mentioned before.

Compared to the clean and upscale Human Market, the Corpse Market was not as grand.

However, the quantity of corpses sold here far exceeded that of the Human Market.

It could be said that this was more of a wholesale market.

Gu Xi just had to take one round here to order three thousand Titan corpses from the world TMH3V38HUHEGEV9G.

Gu Xi noted down the coordinates of this world from Lu Xi.

If Lu Xi shipped several Titan corpses from this world, it meant that the Titans here were really of good quality.

Gu Xi didn’t care for the premium Titans, just the ordinary corpses would do.

As for other corpses, Gu Xi wasn’t in a hurry.

After all, he still had many corpses in the reanimation stage, and if necessary, he could collect corpses in other instances, so there was no need to spend money here.

After transporting these over three thousand Titan corpses back to Yalidov City, Gu Xi finally hurried back to the city.

By then, Luna had also dealt with the two corpses that had been transported earlier.

"Master, should we proceed with the contract now?"

"Let’s go to the Market District first, have you handled the tasks I assigned you earlier?"

Gu Xi promptly asked.

"Everything has been arranged, various supplies have been sent over, and at the same time, Eve is setting up the Undead Transformation Array there."

While Luna spoke, she opened the Mirror Passage leading to the Market District.

Since Gu Xi borrowed Luna’s power, the Mirror Monitoring and Mirror Passage that originally opened within Yalidov City were also accessible to him.

Though not as adept as Luna, it was certainly quicker than riding a Giant Bat.

Luna knew this, and as soon as the Mirror Passage opened, she led the way in front.

Gu Xi followed closely, feeling as if he had squeezed into an icy passage.

The next moment, Gu Xi found himself transported from the Assembly Hall in the Main City District to the Assembly Hall in the Market District.

At that point, a large number of Undeads were tirelessly working in the Market District.

Because many commercial coordinates had suddenly increased, the Undead were constructing the corresponding markets and warehouses.

The market served as the trading location, while the warehouse was the starting point for caravans.

For every new commercial coordinate, a dedicated warehouse needed to be established.

Once a transaction was completed, various goods would be piled up here, and every day, designated caravans would come for transport.

Gu Xi suddenly received many commercial coordinates from different cities, and these warehouses were enough to keep him busy.

But what intrigued Gu Xi the most wasn’t this.

He noticed that in the center of the Market District, a large number of Undead were transporting Gold Coins imbued with Evil Qi.

These Gold Coins were the ones Gu Xi had extracted from the Golden Treasure last time.

Seeing carts of coins dumped onto the ground, Gu Xi felt a twinge of regret.

He had been too slow then; if the transportation had been faster, how great it would have been to bring more coins back.

After the coins were poured onto the ground, Eve was there commanding her subordinates, using some special means to bind all the Evil Qi from the Gold Coins onto the corpses Gu Xi had purchased.

The corpse, which had a financial Talent, lay half-reclining among the heap of Gold Coins.

Beside the heap, there were also a large number of materials, all transported from the warehouse.

The most eye-catching was a bag filled with Gold Coins.

It was a reward Yu received for completing a Library task, a bag full of Gold Coins from which coins could be endlessly poured out.

However, these Gold Coins didn’t have great quality, being thin and small. In Gu Xi’s eyes, three coins could only count as one.

Yu didn’t really care for this item, and it ended up being thrown back into the warehouse.

This time, however, Gu Xi dug it out, along with a Bountiful Horn filled with grain.

The horn was purchased from the Witch’s House.

It was a damaged Bountiful Horn.

The grains inside had already molded and were no longer edible.

For this reason, the horn no longer functioned normally.

A regular Bountiful Horn could increase the yield by 50% when blown within its range.

But now, this Bountiful Horn could indeed increase production by 50%, but 75% of the total yield would become poisonous or moldy grain.

The net effect ultimately reduced the yield of grain.

Finally, some Angel Feathers were also delivered, obtained from the Beite Alliance.

Gu Xi chose to use the Angel Feathers because he noticed the corpse had feather decorations behind its ears and at its heels; otherwise, he wouldn’t have used them at all.

Oh, and half of the bones from the Thunderbird corpse obtained in Qianfang City were also delivered.

After the Thunderbird corpse was transported to Yalidov City, its eggs were extracted.

Without the feathers, the body was disassembled on the spot, with the flesh and bones being allocated elsewhere.

Especially the flesh, some of it went to the kitchen, tavern, and cafeteria.

Whether Gu Xi’s men could produce better food was something he didn’t know.

On his journey back here, he hadn’t heard of any new food inventions.

Once all the materials were ready, Gu Xi quickly walked over to the Gold Coin heap.

With the Yellow Springs Dragon Robe’s view, Gu Xi could clearly see that the Evil Qi within the Gold Coins had been fully accumulated.

"Eve, it’s ready. Let me handle the next part."

Under Gu Xi’s command, Eve stepped aside, and Gu Xi drew his Secret Realm Sword Staff, transforming it to the Civilization Staff status, raising it with one hand while reciting the Undead Transformation Spell towards the corpse.

Simultaneously, various materials floated into the air under Gu Xi’s incantation, falling one by one onto the corpse.

Through Gu Xi’s manipulation, the Thunderbird’s bones turned into Armor fitted onto the corpse, and the Angel Feathers transformed into a Cloak. A throne and a square table formed from Sha Qi Gold piled up.

The Golden Bag was hung on the corpse’s waist, and the Bountiful Horn was placed in its left hand.

As each item fell onto the corpse, its skin began to shrink, and the Evil Qi from the Gold Coins infused into the corpse, slowly turning its color to Black.

At this moment, Gu Xi pulled out a Contract Scroll, opened it, and extended his hand towards the corpse amid the Deep Blue glow.

"I’m Gu Xi, hoping to sign a contract with you and borrow your power to fight for me."

"I, Catherine, am willing to fight for you," the corpse slowly spoke.
