Su Mu sat in the main hall, sipping freshly brewed coffee served by Mei'er, who smiled as she gently placed a silk napkin on his lap. Every corner of the grand villa buzzed with activity. Guards patrolled silently. The private chef worked in the kitchen with precision. Drivers stood by outside, beside two black luxury cars.
Meanwhile, Lian'er walked in, holding a sleek tablet. "Master, the initial team is in place. I've also summoned three elite lawyers and a senior manager. We've opened ten bank accounts across different countries under secure identities. Total spending so far: ¥210,000."
Su Mu's phone vibrated.
> [Ding! Minion spending detected. Cashback: ¥21,000,000 deposited to host's account.]
He didn't even flinch. It was already becoming normal.
With a casual gesture, he handed the tablet back. "Good. Keep spending. I want an information network, my own security agency, and a communications division by the end of the day."
"Yes, Master," Lian'er bowed.
"Also," Su Mu added, "summon a media team. I want to create a public identity—just enough for people to notice me. Let them believe I'm a mysterious tycoon backed by a powerful conglomerate."
He paused, his tone growing sharper. "But no one must ever know about the system."
Lian'er nodded. "Understood."
Moments later, the news broke across multiple social platforms:
> BREAKING: Anonymous Billionaire Purchases 3 Skyscrapers in One Hour.
Identity Unknown. Media dubbing him 'The Ghost Tycoon.'
Su Mu glanced at the headline and smirked. "Good. That will keep them guessing."
Just then, Mei'er leaned in close, her voice soft and sweet. "Master~ You're becoming more attractive every second. Should I prepare the spa for you later? Or… something more personal?"
Su Mu looked at her, amused. "You're quite bold."
She winked. "I was designed to please, after all."
Lian'er cleared her throat, clearly unamused. "Mei'er, control yourself."
Su Mu waved his hand. "Let her be. I'll reward loyalty how I see fit."
Inside, he could feel it—his new life, his new power, growing by the second.
With unlimited money and an infinite human army behind him, nothing was out of reach.
Today, the world saw him as a ghost.
Soon, they would worship him as a king.
