In front of Wang Chaling, Yang Jian forcefully demanded the right to take the pendulum clock away in the future.
As the only known Supernatural Item capable of restarting time, the pendulum clock in the Wang Family ancestral house was unimaginably valuable. If it had not existed outside the real world, previous Ghost Tamers would have taken it long ago. It would never have been left for Yang Jian, who had entered the supernatural circle later.
