Using the Ghost Butcher Knife for Surgery, Tong Jian Was No Ordinary Girl

Using the Ghost Butcher Knife for Surgery, Tong Jian Was No Ordinary Girl

That guy had actually sold it at a hundred times the price. He had suffered a massive loss without even realizing it, yet he was still smugly congratulating himself.

In the near future, it would definitely become a priceless treasure that money alone could not buy!

He was stupid beyond belief.

"Young Master Lin truly has foresight! You made a hundredfold profit just by reselling it. As expected of Director Lin's son—the son of a tiger is never a dog!"

"Exactly. In the future, we'll have to rely on Director Lin and Young Master Lin to look after us!"

"Director Lin, Young Master Lin, if there are any good opportunities in the future, remember to let us know so we can get a share too."

Li Kun and Li Fanghua were quite pleased by the flattery. Both smiled arrogantly, and Li Fanghua said, "Don't worry. As long as you follow me from now on, there will be benefits for you."

Li Kun also patted his chest and promised, "If you have gold on hand, sell it now. Sell as much as you have. My friend told me this rise in gold prices will probably only last a few days. It will return to normal after that."

The others hurriedly nodded, their attitudes exceptionally respectful.

Chen Yu nearly spat out the food in his mouth when he heard that.

It was one thing for him to be stupid himself, but he actually wanted to drag others down with him?

Selling gold at a hundred times the price? Wasn't that outright scamming people?

The reason Chen Yu had been paying such close attention to Li Kun was because Li Kun carried a special scent.

Ordinary people could not smell it.

But Chen Yu, who had five anomalies within him, could sense it.

It was the same scent as an anomaly.

In other words, Li Kun had most likely already been targeted by an anomaly.

But that guy had often bullied others by throwing his weight around at school. Besides, Chen Yu's current target was the Ghost Embryo inside Tong Jian's stomach, so he had no time to deal with Li Kun.

He needed to eat the Ghost Embryo and obtain its Anomaly Ability.

After finishing his meal, Chen Yu prepared to take Tong Jian to the bank to withdraw gold.

Gold could temporarily seal anomalies and isolate them.

Anomalies were extremely cunning. If they encountered danger, they might very well run away.

Especially a small anomaly like the Ghost Embryo. For all he knew, it might be terribly timid.

Chen Yu would not let any powerful anomaly slip away, so he had to proceed carefully.

"Finished eating? Come somewhere with me."

Chen Yu smiled, tidied up, then handed Tong Jian a tissue.

Tong Jian looked at the tissue but did not reach out to take it.

"I'll put it here."

Chen Yu placed the tissue on the table. Only then did Tong Jian reach out and take it. After wiping her mouth, she followed Chen Yu out.

Linjiang People's Bank was one of Riverside's largest banks.

The reason Chen Yu had chosen to withdraw gold here was that gold was simply too valuable now. Ordinary banks did not have much gold available for withdrawal.

Gold was strictly regulated. Every withdrawal from storage had to be reported to the Investigation Bureau headquarters.

Only Linjiang People's Bank likely had the authority to produce a hundred kilograms of gold at once.

The moment they entered the bank, a slender beauty in a bank uniform approached them. Polite and courteous, she spoke in an official tone. "Hello, sir. This is Linjiang People's Bank. How may I assist you?"

"Oh, I need to withdraw some gold."

Chen Yu spoke as he took out his bank card.

The gold and Huaxia currency from the Investigation Bureau had all been transferred onto this card earlier.

There were not many people who could withdraw gold anymore.

She had not expected Chen Yu to look so young and immediately ask to withdraw gold.

At once, the service worker became even more attentive. She led Chen Yu to the counter, swiped his card, and after Chen Yu entered his password, she politely said, "Sir, your account contains one hundred kilo..."

Her expression abruptly changed halfway through. She rubbed her eyes, thinking she had misread it!

But the unit at the end was written clearly!

Kilograms!

Other people had only a few grams here and there!

At most, one or two jin!

Why did his account show one hundred kilograms?

Could the system be malfunctioning?

"What's wrong? Is there a problem?"

Chen Yu asked.

The beautiful service worker froze before finally recovering from her shock. Trembling, she said, "Sir, please wait a moment. I'll ask the manager... This machine may be broken."

"Fine, but hurry up. My time is limited."

"Okay..."

The service worker hurried off. Soon after, a manager walked over. She was also quite pretty, around twenty-five or twenty-six years old, wearing gold-rimmed glasses and carrying the aura of a female CEO.

The service worker from before followed beside her.

As the manager walked over, she said in disbelief, "How could that be? Our bank's machines cannot malfunction."

"But... just look at this gentleman's gold..."

The service worker led the manager over to the computer.

The manager took one look.

Crack!

Her glasses nearly shattered!

"One hundred kilograms?"

The manager stared in astonishment, then looked up at Chen Yu. "Do you know that your account contains one hundred kilograms of gold?"

Chen Yu was only eighteen or nineteen. How could he possess such wealth?

Even before gold prices had risen, one hundred kilograms of gold was an enormous fortune.

"I came to your bank to withdraw gold. Do I also have to answer questions like that?"

Chen Yu was speechless. Wasn't he just withdrawing some gold?

Although he knew gold was expensive now, there was no need for her to react so dramatically, was there?

Chen Yu thought this way because obtaining the gold had been far too easy for him.

One hundred kilograms of gold could probably buy an entire ultra-luxurious villa complex now.

Hearing that, the manager immediately realized she had overstepped. She hurriedly lowered her head and apologized. "I'm sorry, sir. I asked too much just now..."

Chen Yu's words had inadvertently elevated his standing in her eyes.

In the manager's view, Chen Yu was definitely some ultra-rich second-generation heir.

Under the astonished gazes of all the bank staff, Chen Yu successfully withdrew one hundred kilograms of gold before turning around and heading home.

One hundred kilograms was heavy, but Chen Yu had already controlled several anomalies, and his physical strength had been enhanced as well. Carrying it was easy for him.

After returning home, Chen Yu sat on the sofa and looked at Tong Jian.

Tong Jian, meanwhile, was wandering around the room with the Ghost Doll, looking everything over.

Chen Yu poured Tong Jian a glass of water, then said, "Do you know why I brought you home?"

Tong Jian said nothing and showed no expression.

But the Ghost Doll spoke. "Big Sister says she doesn't know."

"Do you believe me?"

Chen Yu suddenly asked, his tone turning serious.

Tong Jian's face remained expressionless.

She merely nodded silently.

The Ghost Doll hurriedly said, "Big Brother, what are you going to do? Big Sister and I both trust you very much. You saved our lives. You're our benefactor."

"That's good. What I'm about to say may frighten you both. Don't panic after hearing it. I brought you back because I want to save you."

Chen Yu said, "I discovered that there is an anomaly in your stomach. It is only in its embryonic stage now, but once it takes shape, it will definitely threaten your life."

"Ah?!"

The Ghost Doll cried out in alarm. "Big Brother, what should we do?"

Chen Yu had saved them and even taken them out for delicious food.

Naturally, they trusted him.

If Chen Yu truly wanted to harm them, he would have acted long ago. There was no need to waste so much time.

After all, Chen Yu was someone capable of dealing with the Headless Ghost Shadow.

"I have a plan..."

"I'll cut open your stomach, remove the Ghost Embryo, then use my Anomaly Ability to restore your stomach."

This counted as surgery, and it was extremely difficult and risky.

But if that thing continued developing inside Tong Jian's body, Tong Jian would sooner or later be controlled by the Ghost Embryo and completely turn into an anomaly.

After Chen Yu explained the plan, he had originally thought Tong Jian would refuse.

But unexpectedly, Tong Jian agreed to Chen Yu for the first time ever!

This was the first time Chen Yu had seen Tong Jian answer him through her actions!

"Then bear with it. Big Brother will be gentle. It might hurt a little..."

After saying that, Chen Yu walked toward Tong Jian.

Tong Jian's face remained utterly expressionless.

In the end, Chen Yu carried Tong Jian over and placed her on the bed, then lifted her red dress.

Tong Jian remained completely expressionless, allowing Chen Yu to proceed.

Chen Yu pulled over a bedsheet and covered the rest of her body, exposing only her small stomach.

Now, the gold finally came in handy.

He stacked the gold bars one by one around Tong Jian, as though he were performing some kind of special ritual.

Gold could seal anomalies and isolate them.

As long as it surrounded Tong Jian, even if the Ghost Embryo emerged, it would have nowhere to escape.

Chen Yu took a deep breath. With a thought, a gleaming butcher knife appeared in his hand.

There were two major difficulties before Chen Yu now.

First, cutting open a stomach and removing an embryo was delicate technical work. Whenever Chen Yu used the Ghost Butcher Knife before, he used as much force as possible. It was extremely violent. This time, he had to be careful and take it step by step, or he might split Tong Jian in two.

He had never tried controlling the Ghost Butcher Knife's power with such precise finesse.

Second, he had to be fast. He needed to swiftly cut open her stomach, remove the Ghost Embryo, then use the Time Ghost Eye's time reversal to restore Tong Jian to normal.

He had already raised the knife and placed it against Tong Jian's stomach, but in the end, he pulled it back.

"No, I need to practice first."

Chen Yu searched through the refrigerator and took out several apples.

Since this was delicate work, he would practice with apples first!

The next moment!

He directly unleashed the Slaughter Ghost Domain!

The world around him instantly turned the color of a black-and-white photograph.

He waved the butcher knife in his hand, intending to peel the apple bit by bit.

Flashes of cold light flickered.

Chen Yu withdrew the Butcher Knife Ghost Domain.

The perfectly fine apple instantly became a pile of mush.

"A butcher's knife is meant for chopping meat. Using it to peel fruit really is difficult. Again."

Chen Yu did not give up. He took out another apple and continued practicing.

This time, Chen Yu tried to control the butcher knife's strength, and his movements became slower.

When he withdrew the Slaughter Ghost Domain, the apple had been peeled until only the core remained.

Although his knife work was rather clumsy, this was still the first step toward success.

Chen Yu tried again.

The butcher knife's power began to merge into Chen Yu's body.

His wrist turned, and the butcher knife danced in sharp arcs.

An incomparably sharp and terrifying force erupted from within the butcher knife.

When Chen Yu withdrew the Slaughter Ghost Domain.

Layers of apple peel fell away, though they still carried quite a bit of flesh with them.

He was improving step by step!

He could also feel that after using the butcher knife with greater care, he had gained quite a lot!

His connection with the butcher knife seemed to have become even more solid.

After failure after failure.

Chen Yu learned from those failures and absorbed the experience. At last, he finally grasped the trick!

The butcher knife's anomalous power surged entirely into Chen Yu's body.

What stood before Chen Yu was no longer an apple.

Instead, it was countless tiny strands of hair.

What he had to do was cut those strands one by one!

And every strand was nearly ten centimeters long.

But when cutting them, he could only cut one strand with each slash, and every strand had to retain five centimeters.

Not a bit more, not a bit less!

And at this moment, he was no longer human.

He was a blade!

Every part of his body could be used as a blade!

Only the last apple remained in the fruit basket.

Chen Yu finally put away the Slaughter Ghost Domain.

Swish, swish, swish!

The deep-red outer layer of the apple slowly began to peel away, like a girl about to enter the bathroom bashfully removing her clothes!

Every strip of peel was incredibly thin.

And every one was exactly the same width!

He had succeeded!

Having grasped the trick, Chen Yu was overjoyed.

He checked the time and realized that eight hours had passed without him noticing!

[Buzz!]

[Wait! What did I just discover? You actually controlled the Ghost Butcher Knife with such precision?]

[I can't believe what I'm seeing. The Ghost Butcher Knife has killed countless people in its lifetime and is one of the most domineering and violent anomalies, yet you can control it!]

[In your hands, it's about to become a scalpel.]

[Just how many secrets do you have?]

[Looks like anomalies will have to avoid you from now on.]

A crimson background lit up across the phone screen.

The blood-dripping words resembled a blood letter written by a vicious ghost!

Chen Yu looked at the notification on his phone.

Anomalies will avoid me?

So I'm something even more terrifying than an anomaly?

[My friend, your self-awareness is still a little lacking.]

[Ghost Butcher Knife proficiency increased by 30% (Level 5)]

The phone screen dimmed.

Chen Yu set down his phone.

Now that he was capable of performing surgery, the next step was Time Reversal.

The Time Ghost Eye had yet to be fully developed, so it was restricted in many ways.

Using it on himself to reverse time consumed around ten percent of Chen Yu's mental energy each time.

That was only when it was used on himself.

He had never tried using it on someone else.

Chen Yu took off his sunglasses.

Within his right eye, a crimson clock face ticked as it turned.

He stared directly at Tong Jian.

The next moment!

The crimson markings in his right eye began spinning wildly and irregularly before finally stopping at twelve o'clock.

Then, the longer hand began to jump backward.
