The Second Wave Arrives

"There are three people left, and a severed head that cannot be removed, suspected to be a ghost that is coming back to life."

At this very moment, in a nearby high-rise building, Yang Jian stared at the top floors of the Ping An Building, which had just been affected by his five layers of Ghost Domain. He could clearly see what had just happened.

Although his attack came unexpectedly and swiftly, catching everyone off guard.

However, the people in the WeChat Moments were also Ghost Tamer, and their reaction speed was not slow. They immediately chose to use their ghost abilities to resist. However, most of them were a bit too weak and could not resist. They were sent away by Yang Jian's five-layered Ghost Domain. Some people simply could not hold on and died from the resurgence of the vengeful ghosts, and were also sent away.

Although this didn't achieve the desired effect, it at least resolved the issues of many insignificant figures in the WeChat Moments.

"That Jiang Shangbai is actually wearing the shroud that the Hungry Ghost wore. The Headquarters really did take action against the Hungry Ghost, but they didn't expect that this shroud would appear on this guy."

Yang Jian's expression turned slightly cold as he looked at the clothes left behind after Jiang Shangbai's suit disappeared.

Originally, Jiang Shangbai would have died too, but this Ghost Shroud blocked the attack from the Ghost Eye.

Just like Ye Feng I met in Dachang City back then.

"If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have been so cautious back then. I should have just stripped the starving ghost of his burial clothes."

He was so terrified when he fought the hungry ghosts that even with the coffin nails pinned to his head, Yang Jian didn't dare to move them, fearing that any movement would break the balance and render the coffin nails ineffective. After all, he had risked his life during that imprisonment.

But six months later, someone actually dared to strip the starving ghost of his clothes. I really don't know whether to say that some people are ignorant and fearless, or that they are incredibly audacious.

"It doesn't matter. It's the same if we strip this guy of his clothes today. We can take his shroud from him so we can have more contact with the starving ghost." Yang Jian narrowed his eyes, without any scruples.

However, the only thing that struck him as unusual was Fang Shiming.

The attack from the Ghost Eye had no effect on that guy; he seemed to have used some method to isolate himself from the influence of the five layers of Ghost Domain, leaving him completely unharmed.

As for that person who seemed to be named Wu Yun

He only survived by sheer luck; he would surely die in the next attack, as he couldn't possibly withstand it in that condition.

"So, the person I need to keep an eye on next is Fang Shiming. He is indeed very special. Even without the Ghost Scissors, he is different from other Ghost Tamer. Is he also an anomaly?" Yang Jian was not in a hurry for the next attack.

He needs to think about and analyze the situation.

Even though he could now directly confront the music box's curse, that's not in his nature.

He wasn't entirely convinced that the music box's curse was invincible. If he acted rashly, what if a ghost's ability could neutralize the curse? Wouldn't he die instantly?

The possibility may be low, but it's not impossible.

Especially now, when they're fighting tooth and nail, one wrong move could mean death. Therefore, Yang Jian needs to ensure that every attack is effective, at least taking down one person.

"Should we try the sixth level of the Ghost Domain?" Yang Jian pondered.

He had never used the six-layered Ghost Domain before. He could only maintain the five-layered Ghost Domain for a long time now. It was confirmed that it could make some less terrifying ghosts disappear, including people and buildings. However, this disappearance was temporary, and he was not sure how long it would last. But sooner or later, these disappeared ghosts would reappear.

"No, there's no need. The sixth level of the Ghost Domain is risky. It would be terrible if it affected the music box's curse."

Yang Jian dared not make such a terrible attempt without a reason. He had already maintained a certain degree of immortality and had a large margin for error, so continuous attacks were the right thing to do. There was no need to pursue the limits of the ghost's power.

As he spoke, he looked at his pale, bloodless hand.

Without maintaining its own balance, the Ghost Hand can suppress the three ghosts to the greatest extent possible without any mental effort.

Normally, this hand isn't very useful, mainly for saving one's own life. But now, for other Ghost Tamer, this ghost hand is the most deadly, because when it's not restrained, its terror is almost equal to the Ghost Coffin Incident in Huanggang Village.

It is also capable of wiping out an entire team of Ghost Tamer.

After all, Yang Jian has not yet discovered anyone with more than three ghosts inside their body.

The next moment.

He disappeared again.

This time, Yang Jian decided to directly infiltrate their vicinity.

Facing Yang Jian's impending second attack.

The few remaining people were completely unaware of what had happened and were even arguing about it.

"President Fang, let's leave quickly. Since the ghost attacked us once, it might attack us a second time. Everyone knows ghosts can't be killed. If we suffer another attack like this, we'll be worn down and die. We've already suffered such heavy losses and lost so many people. Even Headquarters should have nothing to say now."

Wu Yun looked anxious and terrified.

Besides being terrified by what had just happened, he was also worried that there might be other resurrected ghosts around. Although most of them disappeared along with their owners, Liu Dong had left behind that withered, rotting human head.

The eyes of that dead head were still darting around, which was truly worrying.

"Let's go to the safe house for a while. If we're sure everything's alright, we'll find a time to leave."

Fang Shiming spoke up, then explained, "If we really are being targeted by ghosts, we could be attacked anywhere. Running away is pointless, so we need to confirm the situation first. Although many people died this time, it's not a big deal. There are still many backup spots available. We can just promote another batch of new people later. We won't be affected."

He's like a company president; managers and employees leave one batch, and he plans to hire another.

As long as I'm alive, my social circle won't collapse.

He didn't believe that such a supernatural event could kill him.

"Take Liu Dong's head with us. It's dangerous. We can't just leave it here. Besides, it might come in handy sometime," Jiang Shangbai added.

Wu Yun was of low status, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and carefully wrap up the severed head.

This is the head of a ghost. You must not let it be targeted, or things will become very difficult to handle. It was alright when Liu Dong was alive, but now that he's dead, it would be even more terrifying if the vengeful ghost were to revive.

We didn't find any gold or anything like that, so we'll have to use ordinary clothes, but that shouldn't be a problem for now. We'll deal with that once we get to the safe house.

"Jiang Shangbai, aren't you going to use the Ghost Domain? Are you just going to walk straight down like this?" Wu Yun asked, holding the extremely dangerous, rotting human head.

Jiang Shangbai darkened. "My Ghost Domain was suppressed; Yang Jian's Ghost Eye are more powerful."

"Let's take the stairs," Fang Shiming said.

When Ghost Domain collide, there are generally two results: either the weaker Ghost Domain is suppressed and cannot be used, or the Ghost Domain can be used, but they will interfere with each other and cannot reach their normal state.

The latter was alright; although there was intervention, the impact wasn't significant. The former, however, was unfortunate, as it almost crippled a demon's abilities.

Jiang Shangbai belongs to the latter category; his Ghost Domain is directly suppressed by the Ghost Eye's Ghost Domain, rendering him unable to use it.

However, just as the three were preparing to leave temporarily and go to the safe house for their own safety, they suddenly felt something strange on their bodies.

A cold, bluish, dead hand had somehow grabbed their ankles, as if a vengeful ghost was preventing them from leaving.

"This... this is the second attack?" Wu Yun was horrified, his whole body trembling.

He wasn't the only one attacked without warning. Jiang Shangbai was not only grabbed by the ankle, but also by the shoulder of another hand that suddenly appeared. In addition, he felt fingers wriggling on the back of his head, as if a corpse was reaching out to touch the back of his head.

The chilling, eerie coldness that swept over them made their hair stand on end instantly.

More dead hands emerged from Fang Shiming's body; fingers protruded from his clothes, sleeves, trouser legs, and even his mouth.

At this moment, even he, who was usually calm, showed a look of surprise.

Because Fang Shiming felt that the ghost inside his body was being suppressed.
