Yang Jian stood motionless on the cold and eerie Ghost Lake, watching as the old and damaged Ghost Ship gradually sailed away.
With the last of his life, Old Qin controlled the Ghost Ship, not only ending this terrifying supernatural event but also taking all the fierce ghosts within Ghost Lake with him, thus relieving Yang Jian of enormous pressure. Otherwise, ghosts would still be emerging from the lake from time to time.
Soon enough.
The Ghost Ship completely disappeared in Dazhou City, simultaneously leaving the real world.
âItâs all over,â Leuk Sanâs paper figure sighed beside him.
âYes, itâs over. This ship should never appear again from here on,â Yang Jian also breathed a sigh of relief.
From the King Organization to the Ghost Ship incident, too many sacrifices were made. If it werenât for Old Qin in the end, more people would have died.
But though the matter is over, the trouble has not ended. Due to the downfall of the King Organization, the mass death of headquartersâ captains, and the loss of control over supernatural events⊠itâs only a matter of time before the era of ghost resurgence arrives. No one knows what the world will become by then.
All that is known is that desperation and terror will fill the world.
A few remaining captains alone canât deal with the forthcoming situation.
Right now, Yang Jian isnât thinking much about it; heâs just doing what he should be doing.
âYang Jian, what are your plans next?â Leuk San asked afterwards.
âNo plans, just dealing with the situation in Dazhou City first,â Yang Jian said calmly, and then the water beneath him began to recede rapidly.
In just a moment, the vast area of Ghost Lake covering Dazhou City had completely disappeared, leaving no trace.
âHe Yuelian, restore Dazhou City to its previous state,â Yang Jian said after retrieving Ghost Lake. He glanced at He Yuelian not far away.
He Yuelian didnât say a word, only nodded slightly. Then, gray and white paper ashes began to drift through the sky again.
As the Ghost Domain of Ghost Drawing appeared, reality and the world of Ghost Drawing overlapped. The once desolate Dazhou City was restored to its bustling state in no time, with a large number of pedestrians appearing on the streets, and cars on the roads once again.
For the residents of Dazhou City, it seemed like nothing had changed.
After finishing these tasks, Yang Jian suddenly reached out and grabbed a twisted, deformed long sword, stained with various filth, which appeared in his hand. He glanced at it before tossing it in the direction of Ye Zhen.
âYe Zhen, this should be the supernatural weapon you dropped into Ghost Lake. Here it is back to you.â
Ye Zhen caught it instantly, swung it a few times, and then inserted it into a gold-forged scabbard: âYang Jian, now that the King Organization is destroyed, your headquarters also exists in name only. I can feel that the era of supernatural resurgence has arrived. Itâs time for people to welcome our emergence.â
âWhat nonsense are you spouting now?â Yang Jian asked.
âHahaha.â
Ye Zhen laughed heartily at this moment: âHow can it be nonsense? Now, you and I are revered in the supernatural circle. This world is ours for the taking. Besides, being born in this world, how can one long stay under others? From now on, all the rules will be set by us.â
âSo, letâs join hands and guide this era, creating a new future.â
âIâve already planned it all. With your and my influence, a single call would surely attract the remaining ghost tamers in the supernatural circle to follow us. Then weâll use that as a foundation to control each country and unite the worldâŠâ
Yang Jian interrupted him without letting him finish: âNot interested, go play by yourself.â
Ye Zhenâs smile froze instantly, and he said: âYang Jian, the tide of the era has pushed us to the peak. Youâll regret it if you donât act.â
âThen talk about it when regret comes,â Yang Jian remained uninterested.
âFoolish.â
Ye Zhen instantly felt extremely annoyed, then turned and left without saying a word.
Yang Jian watched Ye Zhen leave without stopping him. After all, the matter was over now. Ye Zhen could go wherever he wanted, and he had no right to interfere. However, he truly had no interest in Ye Zhenâs desire to rule and dominate every day.
âYang Jian, Ye Zhenâs words do have a point. Would you consider it?â Leuk Sanâs paper figure smiled and said.
âIf youâre interested, you can join hands with Ye Zhen, and I promise not to interfere,â Yang Jian said.
âMe? Forget it, Iâm not qualified for that,â Leuk Sanâs paper figure shook his head.
Yang Jian said: âFor people like us, do power, status, and fame still matter? Moreover, Ye Zhen doesnât truly want to rule. He just wants to satisfy his vanity. If he had such ambition, he wouldnât have agreed to be an outside aid for the headquarters in the first place.â
âTrue,â Leuk Sanâs paper figure smiled slightly.
âI donât have anything planned for the next few days, so during this time, everyone can take a good rest and move freely. I estimate that after a while, there will be many things waiting for us,â Yang Jian said.
He Yuelian said: âThe era of supernatural rampage is about to come, indeed some time should be spent preparing.â
âDonât be so pessimistic, believe that everything will develop for the better,â Tong Qian said.
âHopefully, since thereâs nothing happening next, Iâll head back to Daâao City first. If thereâs a need, feel free to contact me anytime.â After He Yuelian said that, she slowly took a few steps back, then her figure quickly blurred and eventually disappeared from everyoneâs sight.
âYang Jian, youâre not planning to rest too, right? There are still many things waiting for you to take charge of,â Leuk Sanâs paper figure said.
Yang Jian replied: âLet Cao Yanhua from headquarters handle it, itâs just some aftermath issues. I donât want to worry about it. If every little thing needs me to deal with it, Iâll be exhausted sooner or later. Iâll stay in Dachang City for a few days.â
âTong Qian, letâs go, back to Dachang City.â
After he said that, he opened his ghost eyes, and with the Ghost Domain shrouding them, he and Tong Qian disappeared from Dazhou City. However, before leaving, he didnât forget to take the Supernatural Pendulum Clock placed somewhere.
Leuk Sanâs paper figure watched Yang Jian leave in a hurry, shook his head with a wry smile: âNow thereâs a big mess left, and Cao Yanhua canât manage it all⊠Forget it, this isnât Yang Jianâs responsibility either. He alone cannot prevent the arrival of the era of supernatural resurgence. Better to take a good rest while thereâs time.â
The future matters only gave Leuk San a headache just thinking about them, so he decided not to think about it for now. After all, they had survived this hurdle, and the remaining issues would be dealt with slowly in the future.
Once he figured it out, Leuk Sanâs paper figure leisurely blended into the crowd on the street, disappearing into Dazhou City.
However, the good news about the end of the Ghost Ship incident had already reached the headquarters by now.
Soon, everyone at headquarters knew the crisis was over, putting everyoneâs mind at ease.
âThe Ghost Ship incident is resolved? As expected, Yang Jian is still as reliable as ever. So far, there hasnât been a single supernatural event he couldnât handle,â Cao Yanhua said in the office, smoking a cigarette with a relieved smile.
Then, Cao Yanhua stood up, ready to leave his office to issue new orders.
However, the moment he stood up, Cao Yanhua felt a wave of dizziness, and then his body immediately lost balance, staggering and collapsing to the ground.
He was too exhausted.
He had been holding up with sheer will these past days, and now that he relaxed a little, Cao Yanhua couldnât hold on any longer; his body simply gave out.
The fallen Cao Yanhua lost consciousness, only to be found by his assistant later and then urgently sent to the emergency room.
Cao Yanhuaâs downfall did not affect the operations at headquarters.
Because Wang Guoqiang stepped up, taking over Cao Yanhuaâs duties from Dadong City, overseeing various matters at headquarters.
As Wang Guoqiang took over, his mood became immensely heavy.
With the death of several captains and the loss of many top ghost tamers, there was no one to handle supernatural events in various places. Urgent reports were piling one after another.
It wasnât that headquarters didnât want to send people to handle these, but they really had no one to send. The remaining captains were in very poor condition and couldnât handle supernatural events; they needed time to recuperate.
Although other cities had people in charge, they couldnât be arbitrarily mobilized.
âThis battle broke the balance, and the supernatural⊠can no longer be contained,â Wang Guoqiang thought with a sigh of helplessness.
