Inside Xiaoqiang Club at this moment.

Inside the conference hall on the fourth floor.

A huge metal table sits here, large enough to seat thirty people, but at this moment only a dozen or so people are gathered in the conference hall, seemingly discussing something.

"It has been confirmed that Yan Li died from the resurrection of a vengeful ghost. The incident occurred on a section of highway about 50 miles outside Dachang City. Here is a satellite image; you can take a look." The meeting was chaired by Wang Xiaoqiang, who was wearing a suit and tie and exuded the demeanor and air of a successful man.

A satellite image was displayed under the projection.

This is the place where Yan Li.

There was a pool of blood there.

"As you've all seen, after the ghost blood left his body, it began to lose its suppression. In less than a day, it has spread and covered a full two thousand square meters, with a depth of at least two meters. This rate of growth is terrifying, and most importantly, the amount of ghost blood is still increasing, and there seems to be no sign of it stopping."

Wang Xiaoqiang frowned and said, "We should probably be thankful that he didn't die in Dachang City. Otherwise, his ghost blood would have flowed through the underground pipes, seeped into the water pipes, and entered thousands of households, paralyzing the entire Dachang City because of his ghost."

"However, the reason I've invited everyone to this meeting today is not only to discuss Yan Li's death, but also to discuss the deaths of He Sheng, Zhang Yiming, Ye Jun, and Ouyang Tian."

"In just about ten days, our Xiaoqiang Club lost a total of five members. This has never happened since the club was founded, and such a huge loss is all because of one person."

The projection flashed.

Yang Jian's photo appeared before everyone's eyes.

"This is the newcomer. Some people may already know him, but most don't, since he's only been to the club once and hasn't chosen to join."

Wang Xiaoqiang said, "You've all seen Yang Jian's basic information. His background is very simple: an ordinary high school senior who became Ghost Tamer by chance."

"Like other young people, it's easy to get carried away when you have some special abilities."

"Ye Jun was shot in public at the club. He was responsible for the deaths of four Ghost Tamer in the Huanggang Village incident. After returning, he clashed with Zhao Kaiming, the current Dachang City Manager. I heard that Zhao Kaiming lost a leg at his hands and is now a cripple. His leg can't be reattached."

At this point, Wang Xiaoqiang tapped the table and said, "I now have enough evidence to determine that Yang Jian has shattered the peace of Dachang City. His reckless actions are no less than a supernatural event, and they are escalating uncontrollably."

"Therefore, in my capacity as the club's chairman, I suggest that Yang Jian be removed. Everyone, who agrees and who disagrees?"

Upon hearing this, the dozen or so people present fell silent.

Most of the dozen or so people in the group were not Ghost Tamer; they joined the Xiaoqiang Club simply to do business and make money.

So it doesn't matter who you deal with, as long as the money is there.

"I've heard about Yang Jian too. He's very capable, having survived several supernatural events, including resolving the Huanggang Village incident. Such a person is definitely not as simple as he seems. I don't agree to clash with a Ghost Tamer without necessary conflict or contradiction. The real threat is the increasing number of supernatural events, not any particular person or personal grudges."

A middle-aged man standing nearby spoke up.

Wang Xiaoqiang's face darkened. "Does Manager Ma mean it doesn't matter if the club is ruined by this Yang Jian?"

The middle-aged man, known as Manager Ma, took a puff of his cigarette and said, "I'm sparing no effort in supporting the club because I want my family and my company to have some protection. In other words, it's like paying for insurance with the club. Your club has indeed done a good job, resolving some paranormal events and protecting the safety of some shareholders."

"It would be great if things could continue like this, but rules are rules. Although you are the chairman of the club, using the club's power to kill other Ghost Tamer without reason clearly violates the original purpose of the club's establishment."

"I don't know what happened in Huanggang Village, and I don't want to know. I've always been against it."

"Manager Ma, you're not quite right. The club's huge losses are equivalent to our losses as well. Yang Jian is indeed a threat. He neither joins the club nor the Ghost Tamer Headquarters, trying to have his cake and eat it too. What's the use of keeping someone like that around? If there are any conflicts of interest in the future, are we supposed to give in to someone like that?"

Manager Ma glanced at it and said, "Ghosts don't retaliate against people on their own initiative. If they can't deal with someone, they'll just run away. But people are different. Can you afford the consequences of being retaliated against by a Ghost Tamer? Going after someone for no reason will lead to retaliation."

"There's nothing to discuss. Everyone, please give your opinion. This Yang Jian did indeed cause the deaths of five Ghost Tamer in the club, resulting in significant losses. The club is currently short-handed. Should we kill him or keep him? Give your opinion. Raise your hand if you agree with Mr. Wang's opinion," another person said.

The people at the conference table exchanged glances, and then one after another raised their hands.

Of the dozen or so people, more than 90% raised their hands.

Mr. Manager Ma hesitated for a moment, but had no choice but to raise his hand.

"Very good."

Wang Xiaoqiang smiled slightly upon seeing this; "Since everyone agrees, I will implement it as soon as possible. In no more than ten days, this person will be gone from Dachang City."

"Mr. Wang, how much are you willing to pay to resolve the issue with Yang Jian Club? If the price is reasonable, my company wouldn't mind taking on this job."

A bald, burly man grinned, his eyes revealing greed and madness.

Wang Xiaoqiang said, "You guys aren't up to the task. Don't forget, Hao Shaowen fell into his hands. Dealing with Yang Jian will require some special methods. I'll take care of this. Just wait for news."

"Knock knock knock~!"

Just then, there was a knock on the door of the reception room.

"Who's there? Come in."

The next moment, Yang Jian walked in from outside.

He appeared.

Everyone in the reception room stared at him, their eyes wide with shock.

We were just discussing whether Yang Jian was alive or dead, and now someone's showing up at our door?

"Yang Jian?" Wang Xiaoqiang was also stunned.

He thought it was a member of another club who had come, never expecting it to be Yang Jian.

Did he hear everything that happened in the meeting just now?

Thinking of this, Wang Xiaoqiang tensed up. If Yang Jian caught them off guard at this moment, the club would really be finished.

"Why are you all looking at me like that? Have I gotten more handsome lately? Or are you all secretly plotting something shady behind my back?"

Yang Jian squinted as he walked in. "Wang Xiaoqiang, Mr. Wang Mr. Wang, long time no see. I hope my appearance hasn't disturbed you."

Wang Xiaoqiang composed himself. "Yang Jian, what are you doing here? You're not a member of the club, you're not welcome here."

Judging from the situation, he must have just arrived and hadn't heard the contents of the previous meeting.

"Nobody welcomes ghosts, but ghosts have to appear, don't they?" Yang Jian.

"Huh, there's still my picture on the projector, and my documents on this table. What? I guessed right, they're plotting against me behind my back?"

"Splash!"

Upon hearing this, the others immediately couldn't contain themselves.

At least five or six people stood up at once, all of them taking out pistols and pointing them at Yang Jian.

"We were just discussing how to get rid of you, but you showed up uninvited. Very well, now that you're here, don't even think about leaving. Mr. Wang, don't bother thinking about any plans or strategies. One hundred million, and I'll take care of him for you," a bald, burly man said menacingly.

"A high school senior, how amazing can he be? He got shot, his head shattered, he'll still die. But after he dies, Mr. Wang, you'll have to clean up the mess and make sure the ghost inside him doesn't cause trouble."

"Lei Hu wants 100 million, I only want 80 million. Mr. Wang consider it."

"Damn it, are they trying to steal my business?" the bald, burly man named Lei Hu cursed.

Seeing this, Wang Xiaoqiang had no choice but to say, "If you can handle him, I'll give each of you one hundred million."

"Mr. Wang agreeable, it's settled then." The others looked excited.

"Wait, wait a minute, let's wait a bit."

Yang Jian waved his hand to signal everyone and said, "So, you've all taken care of me? You've all figured out how to divide the money?"
