Yang Jian Comes Online

With this interruption, Ye Zhen stopped mentioning seeing Professor Wang out and tacitly allowed him to stay.

Zhang Wei clutched the Gold Box containing the Human Skin Paper like a precious treasure, as if afraid someone would steal it.

Being watched by three people was putting him under a lot of pressure. He was thinking about when Yang Jian would be back, and he was about to reach his limit.

Especially that Professor Wang, his gaze was so aggressive, it always felt like he was about to shoot at me at any moment.

A moment of silence fell over the scene, while the others wanted Richard and Ye Zhen to escort them out.

But since Professor Wang doesn't want to go out, they naturally won't go out on his own anymore. If Professor Wang were to go out, they could at least take these people with them.

Now, let's just wait here.

Anyway, Yang Jian will be able to imprison the Starving Ghost and resolve this incident in the end, so it's the same when he gets out.

Not long after, Richard suddenly turned his head to face the door.

"Stop playing, Yang Jian is online," he said to Ye Zhen, who had somehow gone off to play a game with Zhang Wei.

"Uh, is Little Yang all set?" Ye Zhen scratched his head.

Richard never expected that he and Yang Jian would have such a coincidence, just in time for Yang Jian to come online.

There was a knock on the door.

Keen perception. Wang Xiaoming silently added a label to Richard in his mind.

Richard was the first to sense the situation both times, which shows that his perception is indeed very sharp, and perhaps his Supernatural Ability are related to this.

Seeing that the two men showed no intention of opening the door, Wang Xiaoming gestured to the person next to him to do so.

Outside the door stood a young man with a somewhat youthful face.

He was somewhat surprised to see Ye Zhen and Richard when he opened the door; he hadn't expected there to be outsiders present.

Then came vigilance.

There was no way around it; the people Yang Jian encountered along the way were not simple-minded individuals.

Very few people have any goodwill towards him.

This forces Yang Jian, a high school student, to mature, otherwise he might unknowingly fall into a trap.

Putting everything else aside, just think about the kind of people he's encountered since becoming Ghost Controller.

Wang Xiaoqiang's club, those people want to steal the ghost that he and Yan Li finally managed to capture.

Zhao Kaiming, the newly appointed criminal police officer in Dachang City, is a complete scoundrel. From the moment he arrived, he was arrogant and wanted Yang Jian to be his dog.

In the Huanggang Village Ghost Messenger incident, he betrayed his Headquarters personnel by misrepresenting intelligence.

Given this situation, how could Yang Jian not be vigilant and take appropriate measures?

That's why Wang Xiaoming Yang Jian decisively refused when Wang Xiaoming asked to borrow the Human Skin Paper from him for research.

Because things didn't start well, and because he had been tricked before, Yang Jian was resistant to Headquarters from the beginning. Naturally, he no longer trusted Wang Xiaoming.

Once trust is broken, it is very difficult to rebuild a trusting relationship.

Ye Zhen Yang Jian's wariness to heart.

He said to Yang Jian, "Hello, Little Yang, this Heavenly Emperor Ye from a certain Ghost Forum."

Mr. Ye is optimistic about your potential and hopes you can grow quickly.

"Fight me soon."

Yang Jian asked in surprise, "Are you Ye Zhen from the Ghost Forum? Asia's number one Ghost Controller?"

I never expected it to be Ye Zhen! And I certainly never expected Ye Zhen to have this kind of personality!

How should I put it? It's a bit childish. Like a teenager going through a rebellious phase.

However, if this person really is Ye Zhen, then this crisis can be averted.

His eyes lit up, and he didn't bother to wonder why Ye Zhen was here.

He wasn't confident he could handle the Ghost Infant that had swept through the entire Dachang City.

Even though he has now been put in a life-or-death situation and has become Anomaly in the first place.

As long as Supernatural Ability are not overused, there will be no longer a risk of Vengeful Ghost Revival.

However, they were still not very confident in dealing with that thing. If they could have the help of a powerful figure like Ye Zhen, the chances of solving the problem would be much greater.

Wang Xiaoming observed his performance and said, "Don't get your hopes up. Ye Zhen won't help solve the Starving Ghost."

We still can only rely on you to solve this.

"What?" Yang Jian was a little confused.

"Why would he come here if he's not going to help?"

At this moment, Yang Jian only wanted to curse.

He really wanted to quit and tell them to go find whoever they wanted.

But no, this is Dachang City, the city where he has lived for more than ten years since he was a child.

He didn't want to see it become a dead city.

"Headquarters paid me to protect Professor Wang, but they didn't pay me to resolve this incident. So you understand."

Ye Zhen shrugged.

No, I don't want to understand. Yang Jian really wanted to say that.

What a lousy Headquarters! Even at a time like this, they're still resorting to these underhanded tactics.

They want people to work incredibly hard, but they're unwilling to offer any benefits. They're always thinking about getting something for nothing.

If this weren't Dachang City, Yang Jian wouldn't be risking his life for Headquarters.

Alright, I guess I'll have to rely on myself.

He calmly accepted the box that Zhang Wei handed him.

To resolve this incident, we'll have to rely on the Human Skin Paper. Although this wretched thing is always trying to trick him, it doesn't lie; it just hides traps within the truth.

Sometimes, telling incomplete truths is more dangerous than lying, and it's almost impossible to expose the lie.

Everyone noticed their subtle actions, but no one called them out on it.

It's just a piece of Human Skin Paper, isn't it?

Richard had already started studying this thing when he arrived.

In any case, the Gold Box outside could only block supernatural forces, while Richard's Divine Power could penetrate it without restraint and study the Human Skin Paper inside.

Unfortunately, this thing was also quite perceptive; after sensing his spying, it pretended to be dead.

If you really want to study it, the best option is to directly master it.

But Yang Jian is watching him closely, ready to strike at any moment should he dare to take another step forward.

Richard suddenly realized that teasing the future Yang Jian like this wasn't so bad; this kind of eye contact across timelines was quite helpful for his research on the Time Law.

The Laws of Time and Space are very active in this world. The Netherworld Law are outwardly manifested, and all sorts of strange entities with aggregates of these laws are running rampant everywhere. It is a good place to comprehend the laws.

Richard has decided to stay in this world a little longer.

At this moment, if Yang Jian were to open the Human Skin Paper, he would find that the writing on it had changed to:

I am Yang Jian from ten years in the future. By the time you read this, I will already be dead. Please do not hand me over to that person; he is not human...

Unfortunately, the Human Skin Paper was sealed inside the box, and no one saw the inscription.

The writing disappeared not long after.

Yang Jian left alone not long after, as he needed to find time to Human Skin Paper provide him with a solution to the Starving Ghost.

With so many people around, it wasn't convenient to expose his Human Skin Paper. He had no choice but to leave first.

Since these people won't help him anyway, there's no point in him staying here.

"You all think highly of him, so why aren't you willing to offer him any help?" Professor Wang asked.

Does having faith in him mean we should provide him with help?

"Because he's someone we have high hopes for, we believe he can handle this on his own even without our help," Ye Zhen said.
