• As the crowd moved to attack, Yang Xiao arrived and warned that he would trap them in nightmares if they harmed Yang Jian.
• Yang Jian and Yang Xiao recognized each other as son and father from different times, then Yang Xiao invited him into the post office to discuss the place.

Yang Jian questioned Yang Xiao and the other dead souls about the Ghost Post Office’s purpose and proposed taking control of it, ending its delivery missions and changing its rules. After Yang Xiao explained that Ghost Painting could give the dead souls a way to affect reality, Yang Jian admitted he could retrieve only a derivative painting and asked whether they would help him despite that limitation.

• Yang Jian asked Yang Xiao about the post office’s missions, and Yang Xiao explained that messengers investigated supernatural incidents and transmitted information while gaining strength through their ordeals.

• Yang Xiao said the post office’s greatest value might be its dead souls, who could use Ghost Painting to reach into reality, and Yang Jian recognized the opportunity this could offer.
• Yang Jian said he could not retrieve the original Ghost Painting but could bring back a derivative, then asked the dead souls whether they would help him deal with supernatural incidents or seek release.

• Yang Xiao and Zhang Xianguang warned Yang Jian that none of the dead, including themselves, could be trusted, and Yang Jian agreed to stay vigilant.
• Yang Jian asked Yang Xiao about the missing piece of the dismembered corpse and about Sister Hong; Yang Xiao advised bringing Sister Hong into the painting to kill her.
• Zhang Xianguang led the group into a painted forest, where Yang Xiao and Zhang Xianguang explained that a buried ghost attacked anyone standing in front of its moving hand.
• Yang Jian avoided the ghost's targeting pattern and concluded that Sun Rui had passed through the forest because he found no trace of his death.
• Yang Jian spotted muddy, uneven shoeprints suggesting Sun Rui had walked with a limp, then continued along the path toward another ghost.

Yang Jian led the group through a fork in the Ghost Post Office and discovered vats of supernatural paint that might reveal how oil paintings were made. When he approached a vat of red dye, a ghost resembling him emerged, copying his Ghost Eye and other abilities.

• Yang Xiao and Zhang Xianguang discussed Yang Jian's decisiveness and Yang Xiao's hopes for him.
• The group reached a clearing of strange dye vats, and Yang Xiao concluded they were likely the source of the oil paintings' colors.
• Yang Jian examined the red vat, saw his reflection remain still, and warned everyone to back away.
• A crimson ghost emerged from the vat resembling Yang Jian, complete with a Ghost Eye and a shadow-like form, then climbed out and faced the group.

Yang Jian fought and defeated a blood-red ghost that emerged from a dye vat and copied the supernatural powers he controlled. After the group continued along the path, Yang Jian found Sun Rui lying motionless ahead.

• A vicious ghost identical to Yang Jian emerged from a dye vat, and Zhang Xianguang discovered that its pigment could erase dead souls.
• The ghost matched Yang Jian's Ghost Domains and Ghost Shadow, melted his axe, and killed him, but Yang Jian restarted himself and tore out one of its Ghost Eyes.
• Yang Jian weakened and suppressed the ghost, which melted into scarlet pigment and flowed back into the vat.
• Yang Xiao reasoned that Sun Rui had likely defeated a similar ghost and continued deeper along the path, so Yang Jian led the group onward while avoiding the dye vats.
• Yang Jian spotted Sun Rui lying face down and motionless on the path.

Yang Jian found Sun Rui near death from the Plague Ghost’s supernatural influence and used his ghostly shadow to temporarily suppress the revival. Sun Rui agreed to become the Ghost Post Office’s administrator, while Yang Jian left to handle the post office and retrieve the ghost painting.

• Yang Xiao approached Sun Rui’s body and confirmed that the Plague Ghost’s power was infecting the area, then used Nightmare Yang Xiao’s ability to bring Sun Rui’s remaining consciousness into a dream.
• Yang Jian spoke with Sun Rui and asked him to become the Ghost Post Office’s administrator, offering him survival in exchange for remaining trapped there under its curse.
• Sun Rui accepted the role, and Yang Jian’s ghostly shadow entered his corpse to suppress the reviving ghost and temporarily restore him.
• Yang Jian departed with Sun Rui’s corpse and Zhou Ze, promising Yang Xiao that he would retrieve the ghost painting.
• Yang Xiao told Zhang Xianguang that he feared Yang Jian’s future because the mysterious man surnamed Qin had first mentioned his name.

Yang Jian returned from the painting with Sun Rui and decided to have him tear up the black letter to take control of the Ghost Post Office and end the messengers’ delivery missions. To improve their chances against the curse, Yang Jian arranged for Li Yang to summon Ye Zhen before they acted.

• Yang Jian, Zhou Ze, and Sun Rui emerged from the painting, and Li Yang saw that Sun Rui was nearly dead.
• Yang Jian explained that Sun Rui would tear up the black letter and become the Ghost Post Office’s administrator, with the others helping him withstand the resulting attack.
• Wang Yong, Zhong Yan, Brother Long, Zhou Ze, and Li Yang agreed to the plan, though they discussed the danger and where to carry it out.
• Yang Jian rejected inviting Headquarters-affiliated Captains and considered asking Ye Zhen to help, noting that Sun Rui had little time left.
• Yang Jian decided to summon Ye Zhen to Dahan City, and Li Yang left the post office to contact him.

Li Yang contacted the Supernatural Forum to ask Ye Zhen to repay his debt to Yang Jian by helping with a supernatural incident in Dahan City. Ye Zhen agreed and set out through his Ghost Domain while Li Yang returned to the Ghost Post Office.

• Li Yang called the Supernatural Forum and demanded that Ye Zhen come to Dahan City to help Yang Jian, giving the company ten minutes to answer.
• The manager decided the Supernatural Forum could not refuse Yang Jian's request and called Ye Zhen at his estate.
• Ye Zhen ended his cultivation, learned that Yang Jian wanted his help, and agreed to go to Dahan City.
• Ye Zhen rejected the private plane and traveled north through his Ghost Domain, while the manager confirmed to Li Yang that he had set off.
• Li Yang lit the black Letter Paper to return to the Ghost Post Office and prepare to deal with its affairs.
