Yang Jian assembled Tong Qian’s face, the Grave-Weeping Ghost’s crying face, and the smiling ghost face onto Zhao Lei’s body to attempt Tong Qian’s resurrection as a Ghost Tamer. As the two ghost faces awakened and began laughing and crying, Yang Jian escaped through his Ghost Domain, leaving the outcome uncertain.

• Yang Jian decided to use Zhao Lei’s body to revive Tong Qian and let her control two ghost faces.
• Yang Jian used the old bloodstained newspaper to erase the malicious ghost’s command and alter Tong Qian’s memories so she would trust him and forget the implanted memories.

• Yang Jian fled through his Ghost Domain to avoid being caught by the ghost faces’ voices.

Yang Jian tried to revive Tong Qian by attaching her face and two ghost faces to Zhao Lei’s body, then moved Luo Suyī and the others away from the dangerous villa. Tong Qian’s body began alternating between the ghosts’ killing expressions, and her survival depended on the two faces balancing each other so she could control both.

• Yang Jian appeared in the courtyard and told Luo Suyī and the others that he had tried to revive Tong Qian, but the ghost faces had become dangerous.
• When the laughter and crying started inside the villa, Luo Suyī and Huang Fei fled, and Yang Jian transported them to a nearby stream.
• Yang Jian explained that he had joined Tong Qian’s face to a body without a face and added two ghost faces, hoping she would revive as a Ghost Tamer who controlled both.
• Yang Jian reassured Luo Suyī that he could contain the danger if the attempt failed, then waited outside the villa while the others watched.
• Inside the room, the two ghost faces alternately threatened to kill Tong Qian, but each one pulled her expression away from the other’s killing method, giving her a chance to control both.

Yang Jian revived Tong Qian using the body of his deceased classmate Zhao Lei and helped her control two ghost faces. Tong Qian accepted the new body, but her faces carried dangerous powers that she still needed to understand.

• Luo Suyī and Huang Fei waited outside while Yang Jian watched Tong Qian's villa and noticed its lights had gone out.
• Yang Jian used the Ghost Eye to see Tong Qian standing in the villa with three faces, then went inside to check on her.

In Z City, Yang Jian, Tong Qian, and Feng Quan agreed to seal the Caesar Hotel while the Head Balloon Incident’s source remained unidentified, and Yang Jian went to meet Shen Liang.

• Liu Xiaoyu told Zhao Jianguo that Yang Jian had revived Tong Qian, and Zhao urged her to report the news directly to the Deputy Minister.
• Zhao Jianguo warned Liu Xiaoyu that paranormal incidents were growing more frequent and difficult to handle, while staff in the archives discussed several recent cases.

• Zhang Gao told the group that Shen Liang had arrived, and Yang Jian went to meet him before returning to Dachang City.

• Shen Liang introduced himself as the new person in charge, explained that Zhao Jianguo had been disciplined, and reassured Yang Jian that Liu Xiaoyu would remain his operator.
• Tong Qian warned Shen Liang not to smile at her, then handed him the incident files and the body bag containing the captured ghost.
• Yang Jian stopped Shen Liang from leaving and demanded Wang Xiaoming's promised ghost candle and reimbursement for the ghost candles and Ghost Tamer quota used in the incident.

Yang Jian accepted it as reimbursement but remained uneasy about its origins, while Wang Xiaoming still owed him a Ghost Candle.

• Yang Jian refused Shen Liang's offer of no Ghost Candles and demanded compensation for his losses.
• Shen Liang asked Tong Qian to go to J City so Headquarters could investigate her revival, and Tong Qian agreed despite Yang Jian's objections.
• Shen Liang gave Yang Jian a pinned rag doll that could draw a ghost's attack and die in his place once.
• Yang Jian suspected the doll had been made by a ghost and accepted it as compensation, but told Shen Liang to remind Wang Xiaoming that he still owed him one Ghost Candle.

After Yang Jian returned to Dachang City, Shen Liang organized a cautious rescue of Guo Fan from the sealed Caesar Hotel. Guo Fan escaped his deathlike state, but approaching footsteps left his rescue in immediate danger.

• Shen Liang ordered Zhong Shan to use a targeted demolition and an aerial ladder to reach Guo Fan without entering deeper into the hotel.
• Zhong Shan found Guo Fan's rigid body kneeling before a spirit tablet, while Guo Fan spoke through the tablet's memorial photograph.

• Zhong Shan heard heavy footsteps approaching the bedroom, and Guo Fan walked out to investigate.

• Yang Jian recorded information about the Ghost Chopper and his other encounters in an offline archive to preserve memories he might lose.

Yang Jian returned home and learned that Dachang City had awarded him Shangtong Building for resolving the supernatural incident.

• Jiang Yan and Zhang Liqin returned home, where Jiang Yan mistook Yang Jian eating her chips for a possible thief before greeting him.
• Zhang Liqin explained that Dachang City had awarded Yang Jian Shangtong Building, and he questioned whether he should keep the property given his uncertain future.

• Yang Jian joked that Zhang Liqin’s apartments would be deducted from her salary over time, and they went to sleep together.

• Yang Jian drove to Shangtong Building with Jiang Yan and Zhang Liqin, dismissing their concerns about tenants who refused to leave and insisting they would follow proper procedures.

• Yang Jian discovered a fully formed Ghost Infant in Wang Shanshan's abdomen, despite the Starvation Ghost having been contained.
• Yang Jian reassured Wang Bin that Wang Shanshan would be fine and invited the family upstairs to discuss the matter.

• Yang Jian contacted Headquarters and learned the detained Starvation Ghost remained sealed, so he suspected Wang Shanshan’s case was an exception.
• Yang Jian examined Wang Shanshan with his Ghost Eye and saw the infant inside her open scarlet eyes like his own.
• Yang Jian realized his curse had sustained the Ghost Infant after he revived Wang Shanshan, making it unrelated to the Starvation Ghost.
• Yang Jian speculated that the Ghost Infant might be his Ghost Slave and decided not to remove it immediately.
• Yang Jian told Wang Bin to bring Wang Shanshan to his house that afternoon, assuring him the infant was stable for now.

Yang Jian proposed forming a company to prepare for supernatural disasters and economic collapse, then gave trusted associates shares in Shangtong Building as security for their families. He planned to broaden the venture by bringing in more influential investors, beginning with Dachang City's former richest man, Ma Youcai.

• Yang Jian told Zhang Xiangui, Wang Bin, and the others that they should unite in a company to prepare for future supernatural incidents and economic collapse.
• Wang Bin presented plans for stockpiling resources, creating a commercial safe zone, and building a survival base, and Yang Jian said the venture needed more influential investors.
• Yang Jian asked Zhang Xiangui to contact Ma Youcai and invite other potential investors to meet with him in Dachang City.
• Yang Jian offered shares in Shangtong Building to protect the group's families if any of them died, and finalized Zhang Han, Wang Bin, Jiang Yan, Zhang Wei, himself, and Zhang Liqin as shareholders.

• Jiang Yan inspected her newly assigned floors and warned Zhang Liqin to stay loyal to Yang Jian.
• Jiang Yan and Zhang Liqin told Manager Zheng that the companies had one day to negotiate compensation or leave Shangtong Building.
• Yang Jian delegated company management to Wang Bin and Zhang Wei and explained that he would travel to J City for training and commendation.
• The bosses of the companies downstairs arrived in Yang Jian's office and demanded large sums to vacate the building.
• Yang Jian rejected their demands as extortion and threatened legal consequences, but Zhang Wei offered to resolve the dispute himself.

Zhang Wei tried to make the assembled bosses back down by revealing a knife and then a handgun, but Liu Chi attacked him and escalated the confrontation. Yang Jian violently stopped Liu Chi, threatened the remaining bosses with legal consequences, and demanded compensation, leaving them terrified and the confrontation under his control.

• Zhang Wei stood up, warned the bosses to leave, and revealed a small knife, then a golden handgun when they showed their weapons.
• Liu Chi dismissed Zhang Wei's threat, kicked him, and threatened to have the company shut down.
• Yang Jian kicked Liu Chi through a wooden door, leaving him badly injured in the corridor.
• Yang Jian aimed a gun at the people rushing toward him, showed his gun license, and demanded compensation or warned that Zhang Hua would arrest them.
• Yang Jian let uninvolved employees leave after they cleaned up, while the people who had prepared to attack remained behind.

Yang Jian handed the company’s daily operations to his associates while warning Jiang Yan to manage its finances. He also recognized that his body was deteriorating and the Headless Ghost Shadow’s instinct to replace bodies might be influencing him, then agreed to examine Wang Shanshan after dinner.

• Zhang Hua’s team arrested the troublemakers, while several business owners settled privately and Liu Chi demanded compensation after waking in the hospital.
• Yang Jian explained to Jiang Yan why he was building influence through the company and assigned her its finances, with Zhang Liqin and Wang Bin available to help.
• Yang Jian realized that his half-human, half-Ghost body was deteriorating and feared the Headless Ghost Shadow’s body-replacement instinct could grow stronger.
• Yang Jian considered using the Headless Ghost Shadow, the human skin paper, or the Ghost Cupboard to solve the problem, but recognized that each option carried a serious cost.
• Wang Haiyan brought Wang Shanshan to see Yang Jian, who promised to resolve Wang Shanshan’s unusual condition and invited them to talk over dinner.

Yang Jian removed the unusual Ghost Infant from Wang Shanshan and decided to raise it rather than destroy it. Wang Shanshan volunteered to care for it, and Yang Jian planned to move her to a secluded temple and use the ghost newspaper to try to make the infant obedient.

• Yang Jian told Wang Shanshan that her survival depended on him staying alive, since his death would leave her mind to be consumed by the Ghost Eye curse.
• Yang Jian used his Ghost Domain and ghost shadow to remove the Ghost Infant from Wang Shanshan, and it did not attack either of them.
• Yang Jian chose to raise the anomalous Ghost Infant because it could become a powerful asset, despite the danger of it losing control.
• Wang Shanshan took the Ghost Infant and offered to care for it, and Yang Jian agreed she could help after warning her of the risks.
• Yang Jian told Wang Shanshan to live alone at the temple on Zhang Xiangui's unfinished construction site and planned to use the ghost newspaper to alter the Ghost Infant's memories.

Yang Jian modified the Ghost Infant’s memories and gave it to Wang Shanshan to raise as protection against future supernatural incidents. Wang Shanshan left with it despite her mother’s fear, while Yang Jian warned her about the risks and supplied equipment to contain it.

• Yang Jian altered the Ghost Infant’s memories with three commands and handed it to Wang Shanshan after she agreed to raise it.
• Yang Jian gave Wang Shanshan a handgun, a gold box, and a white ghost candle, and warned her about dangers near the temple.
• Wang Shanshan showed the Ghost Infant to Wang Haiyan and announced that she would raise it in the temple behind the residential complex.
• Wang Haiyan pleaded with Wang Shanshan to reconsider, but Wang Shanshan defended her choice and Yang Jian said he had not forced her.
• Wang Shanshan left with the Ghost Infant after promising not to release it inside the house, and Yang Jian planned to prepare his company affairs before going to J City.

After learning that his body was deteriorating, Yang Jian traveled to J City to seek Headquarters' help and protect his family. At the airport, his Ghost Eye sensed something unusual near a middle-aged man's suitcase, and a sinister aura began leaking from a black ceramic jar after Yang Jian boarded his plane.

• A hospital expert told Yang Jian that his body was deteriorating and might last only three months to a year, so Yang Jian decided to seek a third ghost and Headquarters' resources in J City.
• Yang Jian considered using the funeral robe taken by the Starving Ghost to transform his body, but kept it only as a backup because the ghost was sealed away.
• Yang Jian contacted Qin Meirou before leaving for J City, confirmed his mother was safe there, and brought the human skin paper and Ghost Rope.
• At the airport, security inspected Yang Jian's belongings, and he was allowed through after the staff confirmed his identity and reported his special equipment.

• The black ceramic jar in the man's suitcase cracked open while being transported, and a sinister aura leaked out as the vehicle's lights began flickering.

Yang Jian clashed with a condescending passenger aboard a plane, while Wan Delu intervened and treated him with respect. As the plane took off, something escaped from a black clay jar in the cargo hold, and a chill began spreading toward the passenger cabin.

• Yang Jian traded insults with a suited passenger who mocked his manners and work.
• Yang Jian revealed that Zhang Wei was his classmate after a passenger asked about the popular streamer Brother Wei.
• Yang Jian demanded an apology from the suited man, but Wan Delu stepped in and tried to calm him.
• Wan Delu introduced himself as the chairman of Wan De Catering, leaving the suited passenger intimidated by his status and connection to Yang Jian.
• After the plane took off, a black clay jar opened inside a suitcase in the cargo hold, and something broke free as a cold aura spread toward the cabin.

Yang Jian was summoned to investigate a possible supernatural incident aboard his flight after a passenger died under strange circumstances. He found a female corpse in a small compartment and sensed that a ghost was on the plane.

• Wan Delu saw Yang Jian carrying guns and tried to befriend him by asking for his phone number and inviting him to dinner.
• Qin Meirou called Yang Jian and asked him to check a suspected supernatural incident aboard the plane.
• A flight attendant led Yang Jian toward the front of the plane, and he took two golden handguns from his carry-on bag.
• The flight attendant told Yang Jian that a passenger had died in the restroom and that the body was reportedly strange.
• Yang Jian found a female corpse covered by clothing in a small compartment and sensed that a ghost was aboard the plane.

• Qin Meirou reported that no similar deaths had occurred on the plane before, and Yang Jian suspected a passenger had brought the ghost aboard.
• Yang Jian presented Headquarters with two choices: evacuate everyone using his Ghost Domain or deal with the ghost on the plane at the risk of passenger deaths.
• After a heated conference, Headquarters ordered Yang Jian to resolve the supernatural incident onboard, and he agreed to do his best.

Yang Jian investigated the ghost haunting the plane and chose to wait for it to reveal itself rather than act without enough information. The ghost invaded another cabin section, and Yang Jian waited for it to begin killing so he could locate and capture it.

• Yang Jian reasoned that the ghost had appeared during the flight and might be disguised as a passenger, so he decided to focus on finding its location.
• Yang Jian and Wang Dong patrolled the cabin, but Yang Jian found no suspicious passengers and confronted a woman whose unusual appearance caught his attention.
• After the woman and other passengers criticized him, Yang Jian returned to his seat and told Qin Meirou he would wait half an hour to lure out the ghost.
• Yang Jian told Wan Delu and the other first-class passengers that the plane was haunted, then prepared his equipment while the cabin lights began to dim.
• Wang Dong sensed the ghost's presence as the lights flickered, and Yang Jian detected it in the cabin behind him.
• The man in the suit tested his phone's flashlight and saw its beam vanish in the darkened area, while Yang Jian stayed put and waited for the ghost to kill again.

A ghost appeared among the passengers aboard the circling plane, and Zhou Hao witnessed it twisting a man's neck repeatedly. After Zhou Hao screamed and fled, Yang Jian recognized that the ghost had begun killing people.

• Wang Dong kept the passengers in their seats while he patrolled the cabin and waited for Yang Jian to handle the supernatural incident.
• Zhou Hao noticed a deathly pale hand behind a passenger's head, though the seat beside the passenger was empty.
• The passenger repeatedly twisted his neck in full circles as corpse-like hands held his face, until his head rose above the seat.
• Zhou Hao screamed and scrambled away, startling the passengers.
• Yang Jian heard the commotion and said that the ghost had started killing people.

Yang Jian learned that a second passenger had been killed by the ghost and prepared to confront it during its next attack. He left first class and headed toward the victim as fear spread through the cabin.

• After a scream, Yang Jian told the first-class passengers that the plane was circling until he resolved the haunting, and warned that they could be killed or die in a crash.
• Yang Jian handed the suited man a gun when he accused him of standing by, then slapped and threatened him when he refused to act.
• Yang Jian left first class after ordering the passengers to stay quiet, while Qin Meirou reported that the second victim’s neck had been twisted apart and that a witness saw extra hands on the victim’s head.
• Yang Jian told Qin Meirou to leave him alone during supernatural incidents and have Liu Xiaoyu handle communications instead.
• Yang Jian entered the dim cabin and headed toward the second victim as frightened passengers discussed the haunting.
