Yang Jian and Yan Li trapped the body-seizing ghost in Yang Jian's Ghost Domain and used Yan Li's ghost blood to restrain it. After sealing the ghost in a gold box, they discussed who would keep it.

• The ghost melted into a pool of blood, and Yan Li sealed it inside a gold box wrapped in foil.
• Yang Jian learned how the containment worked and asked whether he could keep the box.

Yang Jian and Yan Li argued over who would keep the box containing the Headless Ghost, and Yang Jian used his Ghost Domain to secure control of it while preserving their partnership. He then rescued Jiang Yan from the surveillance room and vanished with her.

• Yan Li proposed selling the box and splitting the money, but Yang Jian insisted on keeping it himself because neither of them trusted the other.
• Yang Jian revealed that he had used his Ghost Domain to make Yan Li mistake the box for a human head, then showed that the real box was in his own hand.

Yang Jian discovered that the red paper suppressing his Ghost Eye was cracking, then sensed a vast Ghost Domain passing near his residential complex. After it vanished, he saw a glimpse of a woman’s hands pierced by a golden candlestick and suspected a team of Ghost Tamers had failed to contain the ghost.
