Yang Jian's current state might not be enough in front of real ghosts, and he still needs to be careful as there is a risk of failure. However, he is definitely a top-tier figure in the Ghost Tamer circle. I wouldn't dare say he's one of the best, but he is definitely in the first tier. After all, he has gone through several life-and-death trials to get to where he is today.

Others, like Pei Dong, may have been Ghost Tamer for even longer than him, but most of the time they are just barely surviving and wasting their lives.

Now, his appearance is like a wolf mixed in with a flock of sheep, enough to make everyone feel fear.

A ghost Ghost Tamer is just an ordinary person in front of Yang Jian unless they are an extraordinary being. And the mortality rate of ordinary people when faced with supernatural events is unimaginable.

Therefore, it's not surprising that Yang Jian instantly killed this Ghost Tamer named Zheng Long.

Now.

Pei Dong could no longer remain calm. His expression changed repeatedly. Faced with Yang Jian's domineering attitude, he realized that his words had no effect whatsoever. This guy was completely displaying an attitude of wanting to crush them, aggressive and suffocating. And in fact, Yang Jian was exactly doing just that.

They killed one person right away.

Moreover, this was done after invading this Ghost Domain.

"Let's retreat. This Yang Jian is too terrifying. I think Fang Shiming is probably already dead at his hands. Although we outnumber him, there's no need to continue fighting against such a guy right now."

Inside the dimly lit building, a figure spoke, though it appeared to be a great distance away in the Ghost Domain.

This could actually be an illusion; it might actually be happening nearby.

"Withdraw? How do we withdraw? You need to understand, we're not initiating this; Yang Jian is orchestrating it. I checked outside through the Ghost Domain, and guess what? Xiao'an County is deserted, eerily quiet. This means the outside world has been completely covered by Yang Jian's Ghost Domain. I have no idea how he managed to do that."

"But I'm sure that once my Ghost Domain can't hold, we'll suffer Yang Jian's most terrifying attack. In an instant, we'll all be scattered, and then we'll suffer the same fate as Zheng Long, being picked off one by one. We have absolutely no advantage in numbers," another anxious figure said.

"Let's just go all in and fight him to the death."

Pei Dong gritted his teeth and said, "We can't escape. We have no choice but to fight to the death. Are we really going to kowtow and beg for mercy? I have my pride too."

"We're not qualified to risk our lives. As long as we can't invade Yang Jian's Ghost Domain, no matter how much we use the ghost's abilities within our bodies, we won't be able to hurt him. Because even the most terrifying ghost needs a medium to trigger it to kill. Take Pei Dong for example, your near-fatal attack could even suppress a ghost, but now, if I asked you to touch Yang Jian's head, could you do it?"

Pei Dong's face darkened. He looked at Yang Jian, who was enveloped in red light, and felt very uncertain.

"You can't do it, right? Yang Jian's Ghost Domain is much more complicated than I imagined. You think Yang Jian is standing right in front of you, but that might be an illusion. The real him might be squatting somewhere, eating sunflower seeds and watching us. When you finally manage to retaliate, you'll find that you've attacked a stranger. Even worse, if your ghost touches him, you might not touch Yang Jian's head, but a pile of poop in the toilet."

The agitated figure paced back and forth inside the building before quickly stating his opinion.

"Let's give up on Tong Qian. This time it's Feng Quan's coming, and we can still win. Who would have thought we'd catch a shark while fishing? It's a pity we missed this opportunity, but it's better than everyone dying here."

"After all, there is hope as long as you are alive; if you die, you have nothing left."

"That makes sense. Our chances of taking down Yang Jian are slim right now, so suffering a little loss is nothing."

Pei Dong said, "Do you really think Yang Jian will let us go after we hand over Tong Qian? Don't forget what we did to Tong Qian. In order to uncover his secrets, we have completely offended him. Once we let him go, we have to be prepared to face his crazy revenge, not to mention that Yang Jian will be standing behind Yang Jian Tong Qian at that time."

The others remained silent.

It is precisely because they understand this principle that they are in a dilemma; otherwise, the stalemate would have lasted for so long.

"Time is running out. Yang Jian's Ghost Domain will soon invade, and then we'll have no room for negotiation," the anxious figure urged.

"Damn it, Fang Shiming tricked us! Didn't they say Yang Jian would die soon? Who would have thought he'd still be alive and well?"

Pei Dong gritted his teeth, his expression somewhat ferocious, the marks on his face were torn open again, revealing scarlet flesh.

They had planned everything meticulously, but they hadn't anticipated that Feng Quan was backed by Yang Jian, and that Yang Jian was even more difficult to deal with than they had imagined, causing them to lose one person the moment they met.

Before, I didn't dare to act recklessly even when facing six opponents; now, I'm even less confident facing five.

Their voices mingled together, creating a chaotic and noisy discussion. Although their opinions differed, they all shared the same general direction: they simply couldn't afford to play games with Yang Jian and had to back down this time. As for how to back down and how to resolve the matter peacefully, that depended on what Pei Dong said.

"Yang Jian, we were wrong this time. I will hand Tong Qian over to you. Let's leave it at that. What do you say?" With everyone agreeing, Pei Dong could no longer be so tough. He gritted his teeth and compromised.

I've completely lost face today.

Being trampled on by such a newcomer, anyone else would have already taken him down.

"Oh, so you're admitting you did something wrong now? If you did something wrong, you should act like you did something wrong. What's with that murderous look on your face? Are you very dissatisfied? If you're not satisfied, that's fine, keep hitting me, I don't care."

Yang Jian's expression was cold. He shifted his gaze and stared intently at an empty spot in the dimly lit world.

There, there is a person.

With the Ghost Domain invasion having progressed to this point, Yang Jian was gradually able to perceive the situation inside.

Although it's very blurry.

But even in the Ghost Eye's vision, it was still possible to discern that it was a human-shaped figure.

"This is the source of their Ghost Domain."

Moment.

The anxious figure, looking terrified, felt his hair stand on end under the gaze of that Ghost Eye: "Are you kidding me? He can pinpoint my location even across the Ghost Domain?"

Wait, something's not right.

The agitated Ghost Tamer suddenly realized that a more solidified red light had appeared within the Ghost Domain. This red light instantly tore through his own Ghost Domain and forcefully suppressed it in an unstoppable manner.

"Pei Dong, Yang Jian is about to make a move. He doesn't want a peaceful resolution with us. Let's go!" A terrified roar rang out.

Now he understood that Yang Jian wasn't joking when he said he would kill him, who possessed the Ghost Domain; he was looking for an opportunity and locking onto Yang Jian's position.

Now, the opportunity has arrived.

"What?"

Pei Dong subconsciously turned around, but when he realized that Yang Jian was about to make a move and tried to stop him, he found that the figure in front of him had already disappeared.

The person standing in front of him was not Yang Jian himself at all.

It was just an inconspicuous tree by the roadside.

He talked to a tree for ages, like someone with a mental disability.

"You talk too much nonsense. I gave you a chance but you didn't seize it. Now you want to resolve this peacefully with me? Dream on."

The next moment, a cold, stiff, blackened hand appeared out of thin air and instantly grabbed the person's neck.

Zhou Jiefeng suddenly felt a strong sense of suffocation. His neck cracked and popped, as if his cervical bones were about to be crushed. The most terrifying thing was that he found his whole body covered with pale, bluish hands. These hands were writhing inside his body, desperately pulling at every tendon and every inch of flesh.

The body is losing consciousness.

Not only that, the ghost within him also seemed to vanish at that moment, falling into complete silence.

He tried to struggle, to speak, to pry Yang Jian's hand away, but he couldn't do anything. He could only stare wide-eyed at the indifferent young man who had appeared before him.

The Ghost Domain vanished at that moment.

A red world has replaced this place.

"Another person who has controlled a ghost?" Yang Jian frowned, feeling somewhat surprised.

The same applies to Zheng Long, whom I killed before, and Zhou Jiefeng. If we extrapolate from this, their situations should all be the same, and there is no one who can control two ghosts.

How could someone who doesn't control two ghosts live as long as Feng Quan? Did they possess some special method?

Thinking of this, Yang Jian did not immediately crush Zhou Jiefeng, but instead loosened his grip slightly.

"Not bad, you care about your teammates. You managed to get rid of Pei Dong and the rest of the group at the last moment. Your use of Ghost Domain was quite good." Yang Jian glanced at them, and as their Ghost Domain disappeared, the others also vanished.

"We can't afford to be careless at all when facing a dangerous guy like you. Cough cough, you scattered us in an instant. A team of six Ghost Tamer was wiped out in minutes. You truly live up to the reputation of the Headquarters." Zhou Jiefeng was breathing heavily, but his face was still flushed.

Even though Yang Jian loosened his grip slightly, he still couldn't move, because the suppression from the ghost was still there; it wasn't as simple as just letting go.

"Take me to find Tong Qian, and I might consider letting them go. Otherwise, if I'm determined to find them, they won't get far," Yang Jian said coldly.

"Brother Leg, let me just chase after Pei Dong and his gang and take them out, so they won't cause trouble again." Feng Quan walked over, his attitude very firm.

He suffered a loss earlier, so now he's going to kick him while he's down.

Yang Jian said, "If you chase after them, something bad will definitely happen. Even a rabbit will bite when cornered, let alone these Ghost Tamer. The important thing is to find Tong Qian first. Their lives are worthless compared to Tong Qian."

"If we don't nip it in the bud, what will happen if they retaliate later?" At this moment, a woman's voice rang out, and Huang Ziya suddenly appeared beside her.

She has always been there, just hidden by the Ghost Domain.

Upon seeing this, Zhou Jiefeng's eyes narrowed, and he felt a chill run down his spine.

Is someone else hiding nearby?

If we had actually fought back, it would have been a total wipeout, because it wasn't a one-against-six situation, but a three-against-five one.

In reality, if they actually fought, it wouldn't end up being three against five, but four against five, because there was still a child wearing a bell and a funeral shroud who hadn't come. Yang Jian wanted to make him appear, so he just needed to extend the Ghost Domain to the suburban villa.

This range is achievable.

Yang Jian glanced at Huang Ziya: "Your thinking is strange. They can't beat us, they should be more afraid of our retaliation, not us. Do you think they would dare to retaliate against us? Have you ever seen an ordinary person who offends a rich person and dares to retaliate against them? They should be doing well by not going abroad to hide."

"Uh..." Huang Ziya blinked.

That seems to make sense.

Is this the mindset of a top performer?

"What? You're too stubborn to talk? Or are you stalling for time so your teammates can get further away?" Yang Jian's eyes flickered as he stared at Zhou Jiefeng in his hand.

His feet left the ground, and his body slumped limply, covered with many terrifying hands, making him look like a dead corpse.

"Don't forget, you're just an ordinary person right now, and I have many ways to get an ordinary person to talk, so don't waste my time."

Zhou Jiefeng paused for a moment and then said, "Okay, I'll take you to find Tong Qian."

He didn't doubt that Yang Jian was lying; rather than suffer torment, he preferred a clean and decisive end.

After all, he can't even commit suicide now.
