Ye Zhen returned to Dahai City after the battle against the Kings had ended, then learned that Yang Jian was heading to Dazhou City alone to stop the Ghost Ship. Provoked by Liu San, Ye Zhen set out to help Yang Jian, while Liu San wondered whether anyone could turn the tide of the supernatural resurgence.

• Tong Qian wanted to support Yang Jian, but He Yuelian and Liu San’s paper figure insisted they follow his plan and wait; Liu San reported that Ye Zhen was on his way from Dahai City.
• Yang Jian recognized that several fierce ghosts had targeted him and began attacking, but a paranormal force obscured his Ghost Eye and tried to make him lose consciousness.
• The vicious dog in Yang Jian’s mind roused him, allowing him to dismember a nearby ghost with the firewood axe before the Ghost Lake swallowed it.
• An old garment restrained and began merging with Yang Jian, so he used Restart to escape, then cut the ghosts’ killing-rule threads with the Ghost Scissors.
• Yang Jian dismembered more fierce ghosts while Tong Qian, He Yuelian, and Liu San watched the number around him fall, though ghosts continued to drop from the Ghost Ship.

Yang Jian fought the Ghost Ship’s growing horde using the Ghost Lake, supernatural weapons, and restarting, but the source ghost appeared in Captain’s form. When Yang Jian’s spear failed to harm Captain, the ghost began approaching him.

• Yang Jian used the Ghost Lake’s power and his supernatural weapons to fight the ghosts falling from the ship, prioritizing those that targeted him.

• He Yuelian, Liu San’s paper figure, and Tong Qian noticed Captain and considered whether it was the Ghost Ship’s source ghost.
• Captain effortlessly caught Yang Jian’s spear, resisted its supernatural attacks, and advanced toward him across the lake.

Yang Jian faced the terrifying captain, who had taken his red spear and coffin nail, and tried to stay alive while his allies considered intervening. He used ghost fire to conceal himself and stall the captain, whose strength proved even greater than he had feared.

• The captain advanced on Yang Jian with the red spear, while Liu San, He Yuelian, and Tong Qian debated whether to attack or wait for Ye Zhen.
• Tong Qian decided to act and began applying A Hong's Ghost Makeup as Yang Jian's contingency plan.

• The captain spotted a figure in the fire and cut a ghost in two, showing Yang Jian that it could immobilize ghosts through its own supernatural strength.
• Yang Jian hid again and lured the captain toward other ghosts to keep stalling it, while the Wishing Ghost remained restrained in its grasp.

Yang Jian used a copper coin to lure Captain into Ghost Lake and stole the coffin nail from its spear, then tried to pin the ghost down. Captain anticipated his attack, and the chapter ended with it grabbing Yang Jian by the throat.

• Yang Jian approached Captain through his Ghost Fire Ghost Domain as he searched for a chance to act.
• Yang Jian used Sister Hong's copper coin to lure Captain toward Ghost Lake, where a thousand water ghosts swarmed it.
• Yang Jian hid among the water ghosts and removed the coffin nail from Captain's red spear.
• Yang Jian rushed Captain with the coffin nail and successfully pierced its body.
• Captain remained mobile, blasted away the water ghosts, and clamped its hand around Yang Jian's throat.

Yang Jian escaped Captain’s restraint by abandoning his body and fleeing as his ghost shadow, while Tong Qian completed Ghost Makeup to borrow the power of Meng Xiaodong and Zhang Dong. The attempt to use Zhang Dong’s power badly damaged Tong Qian’s ghost face, leaving the group’s backup plan unusable for now.

• Captain caught Yang Jian by the throat, suppressed his supernatural power, and carried his body toward the Ghost Ship as the Ghost Lake began to recede.
• Yang Jian sent his ghost shadow away into the lake, leaving his body behind; once clear of Captain, the shadow recovered and the Ghost Lake began to return.
• Liu San worried that Yang Jian’s operation had failed, while He Yuelian explained that Yang Jian had escaped through his ghost shadow.
• Tong Qian finished Ghost Makeup with the faces of Meng Xiaodong and Zhang Dong and set out to help Yang Jian.
• Zhang Dong’s supernatural power began melting Tong Qian’s ghost face, so Liu San smeared away the makeup to stop the damage.
• Tong Qian survived, but Zhang Dong’s face lost its features and Meng Xiaodong’s face fell dormant, leaving her unable to use either face’s power for now.

Yang Jian planned to lure the captain into the old residence by retrieving the supernatural bus ghost from the Ghost Ship, but he needed someone to distract the captain. Ye Zhen arrived and blocked the captain as Yang Jian entered the ship, only to discover that the captain could pull the coffin nail from its body.

• Yang Jian escaped the captain but realized it still held his former body and the supernatural power left inside it, so he decided to try drawing the captain into the old residence.
• Yang Jian deduced that the supernatural bus ghost might be inside the Ghost Ship and that its power could let him cross into the supernatural region.
• Yang Jian found Tong Qian incapacitated after her attempt to use Ghost Makeup failed, leaving him without anyone to hold off the captain.
• Ye Zhen arrived, and Yang Jian asked him to distract the captain before diving into the Ghost Ship to find the supernatural bus ghost.
• The captain pursued Yang Jian, but Ye Zhen blocked its path; after Yang Jian warned him about the coffin nail, the captain dropped Yang Jian's corpse and pulled the nail from its body.

Yang Jian searched the Ghost Ship’s cabin for the supernatural bus ghost and discovered it fused with a decayed red coffin and the surrounding sludge. He freed the incomplete ghost by removing the female corpse that had protected the coffin, but the corpse vanished after he threw it aside.

• Yang Jian entered the Ghost Ship’s cabin through the supernatural bus’s breach and searched its trash-filled depths for the bus ghost.
• Yang Jian found a fresh female corpse in a damaged coffin and avoided disturbing it while he continued searching.
• Yang Jian located the supernatural bus’s driver’s seat and discovered the incomplete ghost beneath it, fused to the coffin and the Ghost Ship.
• Yang Jian determined that removing the female corpse would release the coffin and the ghost, then pulled her from the coffin and tossed her aside.
• The coffin collapsed, allowing Yang Jian to dig out the broken bus ghost, while the female corpse disappeared unnoticed.

Yang Jian escaped the Ghost Ship with half of the captain’s corpse and used its supernatural power to pull himself and Ye Zhen into a supernatural land when Ye Zhen was overwhelmed by ghosts. There, Yang Jian prepared to make another move against the captain and end the Ghost Ship incident.

• Yang Jian carried half of the mangled corpse out of the Ghost Ship while using his ghostly shadow to begin controlling it, despite the danger that its dormant power might revive.
• Ye Zhen kept the captain from returning to the Ghost Ship, then threw the coffin nail into the Ghost Lake so the captain could not reclaim it.
• The Ghost Ship released a flood of ghosts that buried Ye Zhen, and he vanished from the battlefield without leaving a corpse.
• Yang Jian used the new supernatural power to take himself and Ye Zhen across reality’s boundary into a supernatural land.
• Yang Jian told Ye Zhen he would act again to imprison the captain, with an ancient mansion in the forest behind him as the next destination.

Yang Jian and Ye Zhen returned to Ghost Lake and faced the captain and the ghosts it had turned against them. Yang Jian discovered his newly acquired bus power could force ghosts into dormancy, giving them a way to fight as he prepared to lure the captain into the ancient house.

• Liu San and He Yuelian discussed using Old Qin’s statue as a last resort if Yang Jian’s operation failed.
• Vicious ghosts began emerging from the full Ghost Lake, and Yang Jian and Ye Zhen reappeared above it.

• Yang Jian found that few ghosts were targeting him with curse threads, while the lake’s ghosts advanced under the captain’s influence.
• Yang Jian kicked a ghost into dormancy, then confirmed that his bus power let him strike ghosts and immobilize them.

After taking control of the paranormal bus ghost, Yang Jian gained terrifying power and could see the old house overlaid on the real world. He located the trap’s corresponding spot beneath a high-rise in Dazhou City and tried to lure the captain into it, but the captain sensed danger and stayed outside.

• Yang Jian’s new power sent attacking vicious ghosts flying and left them dormant, while Liu San, He Yuelian, and Tong Qian worried about the cost of his sudden increase in strength.
• Yang Jian cleared a path for Ye Zhen and headed toward the real-world location corresponding to the ancient house.
• Yang Jian discovered that his Ghost Eye could see the old house and the real world at once, and realized the bus ghost had invaded his body.
• Yang Jian found that the old house’s courtyard corresponded to an open space beneath a high-rise building, where the captain could be trapped if drawn to the center.
• Yang Jian and Ye Zhen retreated into the building to make it seem like the trap was inside, but the captain stayed outside as the vicious ghosts followed them in.
