Yang Jian Goes Online

"Are there no lights here either?"

When Yang Jian returned to Guangjiang Residential Area, he found it to be just like other parts of the city, completely dark with not a single light on.

A dark, bluish-green haze enveloped the area, seemingly swallowing up this last safe haven.

During the time of his death, everything proceeded as expected, with no unexpected miracles occurring. It was thought that the Ghost Tamer Headquarters would come up with some solution, but it seems that everything still depends on ourselves.

"The fact that the lights aren't on doesn't mean everyone is dead; at least, the people in the safe house couldn't be dead."

With this thought in mind, Yang Jian parked his car at the entrance.

At this moment, the main door of the house was tightly closed, and the curtains on each floor were drawn, so you couldn't see what was going on inside or feel any human presence; it looked utterly lifeless.

"This should be the best-case scenario."

Yang Jian glanced at it and felt somewhat relieved.

If something unexpected had happened here, things wouldn't be so normal. If the door were wide open and the windows were broken, it would prove that terror had already invaded this place, and the people inside would most likely have been killed.

He ignored the door's obstruction and walked in, carrying the ghost mirror.

First, place this very important ghost mirror on the fifth floor and lock it in a room to ensure it won't be lost during the next operation.

I smelled the lingering stench of death emanating from my body.

Yang Jian had no choice but to change his clothes and take a bath in the swimming pool on the third floor to get rid of the smell.

But no.

He still smelled of decay, though much fainter, and the lividity on his hands remained incredibly clear, showing no signs of diminishing despite his resurrection.

Yang Jian frowned.

To be honest, he wasn't happy with his physical condition. These symptoms were making him feel like he was dying. He was only still conscious; if he lost consciousness, he would probably be no different from a real ghost.

"Who?!"

Suddenly, he sensed something; his chest skin split open, and a strange eye emitted a red light that instantly enveloped him.

The gloom was dispelled, replaced by a crimson expanse.

The Ghost Domain opened instantly.

It only used one Ghost Eye.

Ah~!

Someone was startled, then stammered, "Is it... is it Yang Jian? I'm Zhang Liqin, the salesperson who sold the car last time."

She didn't need to say anything; she already knew the outcome when Yang Jian opened his Ghost Domain and enveloped her.

At that moment, Zhang Liqin was trembling as she hid by the door, using the little battery left in her phone to turn on the flashlight and shine it in this direction.

Her face was pale and her expression was haggard. Her once jet-black hair was now messy and dry, making her look like a madwoman, completely different from before.

She's been alone here for seven days, constantly on edge, worried that ghosts might appear. It's quite remarkable that she didn't go crazy under that kind of mental pressure.

"You're still alive. That's good. I thought you might be dead," Yang Jian.

"I... I'm fine. I heard someone go to the fifth floor, and I knew it might be you coming back. I've been waiting for you to come back." Zhang Liqin's tense nerves suddenly relaxed, and she collapsed to the ground, bursting into tears.

It's like a helpless child suddenly finding its parents.

Yang Jian didn't comfort her, but simply said, "This supernatural incident should be over. I'll take care of it. From now on, you'll all be fine. Bring me my clothes; I've finished showering."

Zhang Liqin wiped away her tears, quickly stood up, and shone her phone's light on her eyes; "Which piece of clothing should I take?"

"My work clothes," Yang Jian.

Zhang Liqin quickly found the new uniform that she hadn't worn yet.

As Yang Jian dried himself off, he stepped out of the swimming pool and asked, "Did those things get into the house?"

"I... I don't know."

Zhang Liqin came over with the clothes. "I've been hiding on the fourth floor, I was very scared, but I didn't hear anything, although I did hear someone screaming outside, I don't know who it was."

"Then let's check it out."

Yang Jian's eyes flickered, and the red light covering the room immediately spread outwards.

In the blink of an eye, the red light covered the entire building, and it didn't stop there. The red light spread outwards from the community, and in less than three seconds, the entire community was enveloped in red light.

How big is Guangjiang Residential Area?

You have to drive to get around inside. It's the largest residential area in Dachang City, and including the areas that are not yet fully developed, the area stretches for more than five kilometers.

Such a vast area, yet the Ghost Domain was able to cover it entirely.

And this doesn't seem to be Yang Jian's limit.

"There are no ghosts in the house, but there are in the neighborhood, and quite a few of them." Yang Jian immediately learned about the situation of the entire neighborhood through the Ghost Domain.

"So dangerous?" Zhang Liqin shuddered.

Yang Jian, "It's not dangerous. This number is relatively small. If it were in the city center, the situation would be completely different. Hmm? There seems to be some trouble outside. I'll go out for a bit."

"Then, what about me?" Zhang Liqin grabbed his arm and looked up, her face full of anxiety.

"Of course you should stay here. I will exorcise all the ghosts around here. You are safe now," Yang Jian said earnestly, looking at her.

"Then, come back soon." Zhang Liqin hesitated before letting go of her hand.

"Um."

Yang Jian simply responded softly. After getting dressed, he hung his satellite positioning phone around his neck and then activated the connection.

Before he hanged himself, he said that only he could contact Headquarters absolutely could not contact him, to avoid any unforeseen circumstances.

"I am Ghost Eye Yang Jian, now officially online."

After saying that, Yang Jian took a step forward and then disappeared from the spot.

At this moment, in the communications room of Headquarters.

Thanks to Yang Jian, Liu Xiaoyu now has her own office, staffed 24/7 to ensure that someone is always available to answer calls.

It's noon now.

It was just Liu Xiaoyu's turn to be on duty.

Just like yesterday, she sat at the table, listlessly monitoring the communications.

I thought today would be the same as always, with nothing happening.

But with a hissing sound of electricity, a cold voice came from the loudspeaker; it was Yang Jian, who had been missing for seven days.

"Um?"

Liu Xiaoyu's eyes widened suddenly, and she stood up abruptly, her face filled with disbelief.

Yang Jian had been offline for seven days, and everyone was speculating that Yang Jian might be dead, but now he's back online.

Did I hear that right?

She thought she had been sitting for too long and was having mental problems, but when she stared at the signal light on the communication station, she was absolutely certain that Yang Jian's satellite positioning phone had been activated and was online.

"Yang Jian is online~!."

Liu Xiaoyu screamed and ran out of the communications room.

The news spread like wildfire within the company.

"What? That Ghost Eye Yang Jian from Dachang City is back online? Wasn't he missing for seven days?"

"Quickly, get to the Dachang City command center."

"Great! Yang Jian has come online! There's a turning point in the Dachang City incident."

Exclamations of surprise echoed through Headquarters.

However, the news was quickly suppressed, and many staff members were warned because Yang Jian's existence was of great importance and it was not yet time to make it public. Even internally, they were to keep as little information as possible.

It took less than five minutes.

News of Yang Jian's online status reached the temporary command center in Dachang City.

"Yang Jian is online? Is this news reliable?" Deputy Minister Cao Yanhua's eyes widened upon hearing this news.

"It's very reliable. Liu Xiaoyu was the one who answered the call at the time, and this is the recording."

A staff member played a recording.

It's just a simple sentence: I am Ghost Eye Yang Jian, now officially online.

"Quickly, convene an emergency meeting."

Cao Yanhua also lost his composure and immediately shouted, "Quickly notify the higher-ups that we need to implement the second step of the plan. Also, have the rescue center prepare to participate in the rescue."

"Isn't this a bit too hasty? Yang Jian has only just gone online; the Dachang City incident isn't over yet." The staff member was stunned.

"This is the plan that Professor Wang devised in the safe house. It will be implemented immediately once Yang Jian goes online. I will take full responsibility for any problems that arise."

"Yes, Minister." The staff member immediately ran away.

Cao Yanhua became somewhat excited at this moment, because Professor Wang had said that once there was news from Yang Jian's side, it would mean that there was a greater than 70% chance that the incident in Dachang City could be resolved, and preparations for rescue could begin.

Of course, if it doesn't go online, it means there's absolutely no hope for this project, and the only option left is to try and cut the losses.

Yang Jian had no idea that his phone call would elicit such a huge reaction from the outside world.

He was now on the top floor of a building in the residential complex, looking down at the complex below.

Enveloped in red light, the terrifying figure lurking in the shadows had nowhere to hide.

"What is Wang Bin doing carrying Wang Shanshan out of the building?" Yang Jian saw Wang Bin in the hallway.

Although no one knew what he was planning to do, two ghosts were already approaching him in the hallway.

It is Ghost Infant in the third stage.

At this stage, the ghosts will only choose their targets when they hear a sound. Although they are derived ghosts, their level of terror is already quite high.

"It's a good opportunity to test my current state with the third-stage Ghost Infant," Yang Jian thought to himself.

He knew he was special now, having completely mastered the headless ghost, and through the headless ghost, he had completely mastered the Ghost Eye, and also controlled the ghost rope.

A series of chain reactions have made him completely different from ordinary Ghost Tamer.

But he doesn't yet know how big the gap is between himself and a real ghost. He needs to fight a ghost himself to understand how powerful he is at this moment.

The next moment.

He disappeared on the top floor.
