Yang Jian sent Miao Xiaoshan to Shangtong Tower and settled her down for the time being. As for when the gathering would be, it depended on Zhang Wei. Since Zhang Wei was organizing this, there was no need for Yang Jian to worry much about it.

He originally planned to sit for a while longer, but Li Yang came to him.

“Li Yang, is there something wrong?” Yang Jian came to the meeting room and met with Li Yang, who had been waiting for him.

Li Yang had been staying at the company these days. His tasks were twofold: to protect the company’s security and to watch over the comatose Zhao Xiaoya.

Ever since Zhao Xiaoya entered her dream, the invisible Wishing Ghost had been lingering around her, even wandering within the company. Although there was no immediate danger, Li Yang was very concerned about this, and he arranged for both Li Yang and Xiong Wenwen to stay at the company to ensure that no accidents occurred.

“Currently, Shangtong Tower is very secure. In Xiong Wenwen’s foresight, the ghost around Zhao Xiaoya hasn’t killed anyone, but people are still disappearing in Dachang City. Wang Yong, Eagle, and others are investigating this matter, and they have some clues.” Li Yang said.

Wang Yong and Eagle were previously messengers at the Ghost Post Office. After finishing the work at the Ghost Post Office, Yang Jian took in Wang Yong and resurrected Eagle and Yang Xiaohua. They currently work at the company.

“What are the findings?” Yang Jian inquired.

Li Yang said: “It’s basically certain that this has nothing to do with our Dachang City. Most likely, other supernatural events are involving us, not the supernatural occurrences surrounding Zhao Xiaoya. But Wang Yong is still investigating, and if no new supernatural phenomena occur, he thinks this matter can be temporarily ignored.”

“With a city’s population being so large, occasionally losing a few people is not considered serious.”

Yang Jian pondered: “So yes, there’s still a small probability of a supernatural event? But Wang Yong is doing the right thing; though there’s no evidence, we can’t eliminate suspicion. This is Dachang City, where we live, and no accidents are tolerated.”

He previously suspected the Wishing Ghost might be involved, and if not, the remaining suspicious points were only the Ghost Cabinet and the Black Umbrella.

The Ghost Cabinet is currently involved with the Wishing Ghost, causing some issues and posing a potential risk of losing control.

The Black Umbrella supernatural event is currently happening outside of Dachang City, making the likelihood very small.

“Besides, I’ve also initiated a new deal with the Ghost Cabinet before, which is to have the Wishing Ghost appear in front of me. But another deal is for the Wishing Ghost not to appear in front of me for three days, creating a conflict to artificially generate supernatural downtime, and today is the third day.”

“If the supernatural conflict fails and the Ghost Cabinet completes my transaction, I will suffer a curse again. If the supernatural conflict succeeds, I will not encounter the Wishing Ghost after midnight tonight.”

Thinking this, Yang Jian continued, “We’ll maintain the status quo for now, and everything will be decided after midnight tonight. If everything remains normal during this period, let Wang Yong abandon his investigation, and you and Xiong Wenwen needn’t keep watch over Zhao Xiaoya anymore.”

Li Yang nodded: “I hope everything goes smoothly today.”

“I hope things don’t go smoothly tonight. The Wishing Ghost around Zhao Xiaoya is too dangerous, and it would be best to imprison it, as keeping it is always a hidden danger.” Yang Jian said.

The Wishing Ghost falling onto Zhao Xiaoya, allowing a child to wish freely and causing death continuously, cannot be tolerated.

Furthermore, such a malevolent spirit like the Wishing Ghost is not suitable for harnessing; imprisoning it would be ideal.

“Do we need to prepare anything for tonight?” Li Yang asked.

Yang Jian replied: “No need, let things proceed as they will. I’ll handle it. You just need to do your job well. By the way, how are things in Baishui Town? Have you been in contact?

“I spoke with Huang Ziya before, and nothing has happened on her end. Moreover, Wang Shanshan’s grandmother has been successfully rescued. The yellow paper affixed to the old lady’s face has been torn off by Huang Ziya, and it’s currently in her possession. Also, Feng Quan has successfully arrived at the Ghost Post Office and met with Sun Rui; everything is going smoothly.” Li Yang reported on the follow-up situation.

“That’s good. What’s Tong Qian been up to recently?” Yang Jian nodded.

“She’s been on duty as usual, occasionally visiting the city she used to be responsible for. She seems quite uneasy about the situation at the Caesar Hotel, needing to frequently check on it.” Li Yang continued.

Yang Jian said: “That’s normal, considering that the situation at Caesar Hotel ended, but there are still hidden dangers. Keeping an eye on it is necessary.”

After listening to Li Yang’s report, Yang Jian had a general understanding of the events happening in the past two days.

For now, everything remains stable.

However, he plans to deal with the Black Umbrella supernatural event after handling the Wishing Ghost’s matter, as leaving it unresolved remains a hidden danger.

At this moment.

Feng Quan, who had already arrived at the Ghost Post Office, was crouching in front of a giant soil tomb within the post office, frowning and pondering.

During this period of contemplation, Feng Quan’s hand had unknowingly inserted itself into the mound.

The supernatural power of the Grave Soil was shared.

Feng Quan had harnessed the Grave Soil, and what buried Wei Jing was also Grave Soil, despite it not belonging to him; the supernatural power remained the same.

“How’s it going? Any new progress?” Suddenly, Sun Rui, leaning on his cane, approached and asked about the situation again.

The Ghost Post Office had become very quiet at this point, and the captains who had gathered here had all left; only He Yuelian remained, as she needed time to adapt to her supernatural power, learning, and mastering it. Sun Rui had taken on the responsibility of guiding He Yuelian.

Apart from that, the condition of Wei Jing buried in the Grave Soil was causing concern.

No one wants Wei Jing to die, as he is a very reliable captain, and losing him would be a significant loss to everyone.

Feng Quan slowly retracted his hand from the Grave Soil and said, “Wei Jing buried in the soil isn’t showing any signs of life; it’s like he’s dead. I’ve observed him continuously from yesterday to today without any changes. However, I dare not casually dig up the soil, disrupting the balance. But this dilemma can’t go on.”

“I have an idea, which is for me to personally enter this tomb to determine the situation and then bring Wei Jing out. Of course, this is very risky; it might lead to Wei Jing failing to resurrect and being nothing more than a corpse.”

Sun Rui pondered for a moment and said, “I can’t make such decisions; it needs approval from headquarters.”

“Headquarters? That would be Yang Jian making the decision. I’ll call Yang Jian and see what he says.” Feng Quan said.

Sun Rui said, “There’s no signal for phones here, use my landline instead.” Thɪs chapter is updated by novel✶fire.net

As he spoke, he pointed to a landline phone not far away.

Feng Quan wasted no time and immediately picked up the phone to contact Yang Jian.

At this moment, Yang Jian, who was listening to Li Yang’s report, answered the call.

“Yang Jian, it’s me, Feng Quan. I’m at the Ghost Post Office now…” Feng Quan briefly explained Wei Jing’s situation: “That’s the gist of it. What are your thoughts now? Should we rescue him immediately, or wait and see? Anyhow, at present, Wei Jing shows no signs of revival. He’s no different from a corpse buried in a grave.”

Yang Jian asked, “What about the buried Ghost Envoy? I remember Wei Jing and the Ghost Envoy were buried together.”

“No signs of the Ghost Envoy have been found. I suspect the Ghost Envoy has already invaded Wei Jing’s body and they have become one. But it’s uncertain who is in control now,” Feng Quan said.

“This matter is quite troublesome. If Wei Jing comes out without consciousness, it’d be like releasing a Ghost Envoy inside the Ghost Post Office.” Yang Jian understood the difficulty of the situation, but he, being in Dachang City, couldn’t handle matters at the Ghost Post Office.

“Feng Quan, you make the call on this. I’ll back you up if anything goes wrong. I trust you’ll make the right decision.”

“Alright then, since you say so, I’ll handle it,” Feng Quan acknowledged.

Soon after, the call between the two ended.

Inside the Ghost Post Office, after Feng Quan put down the phone, he immediately said, “Sun Rui, Yang Jian asked me to decide.”

“In that case, you decide. I’ll support you,” Sun Rui said.

Feng Quan was also contemplating. He hoped to rescue Wei Jing rather than release the Ghost Envoy.

Finally, he said, “I decide to enter the Grave Soil myself and be buried with Wei Jing. It may take some time, so don’t let anyone disturb me. I’ll see if I can communicate with Wei Jing during this time. If not, I’ll extract the supernatural power from the Grave Soil to ensure I can restrain the Ghost Envoy after releasing it.”

“Alright, I understand,” Sun Rui nodded.

“Then I’ll start,” Feng Quan said after taking a deep breath.

He was also taking a risk, but he knew that this was not only an opportunity for Wei Jing but also for himself. The Grave Soil supernatural power he could harness was minimal, like a fragmented puzzle. If he could acquire this ancient grave, he could easily bury other fierce ghosts rather than barely managing with the three he currently controls.

With this determination, Feng Quan walked towards the massive old grave.

His footsteps gradually sank into the soil, appearing as though he was being swallowed by the grave.

After just a few steps, most of Feng Quan’s body was already submerged in the Grave Soil, with only his head remaining above ground.

Sun Rui watched all of this in silence.

A moment later.

Feng Quan completely disappeared, thoroughly buried in the ancient grave, which remained calm without any anomalies.

However, he was not dead.

Possessing the same supernatural power as the Grave Soil, he could survive within it.

Yet the Grave Soil suppressed a terrifying Ghost Envoy. Even if he could survive within it, any mishap could still lead to his death at the hands of the Ghost Envoy.

Whether it would be growth or death remains a matter for time to determine.

“When can I leave and go out for a walk? I feel like I’ve almost mastered my supernatural power.”

Suddenly, a woman’s voice arose. An eerie woman in a red wedding gown, with a red veil over her head, inexplicably stood behind Sun Rui.

This eerie woman was He Yuelian, who harnessed the Ghost Painting.

“Not yet. You’re not proficient enough. For an ordinary person, mastering supernatural power is just the beginning. You need to become skilled in using it. You’re far from ready, and going outside requires Yang Jian’s consent because of your special existence,” Sun Rui denied her request.

“I understand. I’ll continue practicing then,” He Yuelian said and then eerily vanished.

Though she was in the Ghost Post Office, her Ghost Domain could be used unaffected, becoming increasingly proficient.

In truth, no one could stop He Yuelian from leaving the Ghost Post Office. Only her own restraint and her apprehension of Yang Jian held her back.

If He Yuelian wanted to join the headquarters, she must follow orders.

If she recklessly walked out of the Ghost Post Office, it would mean confronting the headquarters.

He Yuelian was aware of this, so she wouldn’t leave the Ghost Post Office without permission.

“She won’t be constrained here for long. She’ll soon leave,” Sun Rui thought to himself.

Since ancient times, no cage could restrain a fierce tiger.

The only worry was if He Yuelian, once free, would use her supernatural power for good or ill outside.

Zhang Xiangguang indeed left a huge dilemma for them.
