Chapter 65

"This red paper is gradually losing its ability to suppress this eye. Indeed... the limit of this red paper is approaching."

Yang Jian wiped the water off his face while looking in the mirror. He noticed that the red paper on the back of his hand had cracked.

Yes, a very clear crack.

It was important to know that this red paper was very special, something from a powerful ghost. Normally, he couldn't tear it with just his strength; only the power of a powerful ghost could tear it.

"Is it because I used the Ghost Domain today? Or is it that the effect of this red paper diminishes over time..." Yang Jian touched the back of his hand.

The eye under the skin was stirring.

Although there was no abnormality, he could feel that the ghost eye was beginning to revive.

His body seemed to have become a host for this ghost eye. As the ghost eye grew, he was moving closer to death.

"But it doesn't matter. As long as I find a way to suppress the revival of the powerful ghost, everything will be fine." Yang Jian thought to himself.

After experiencing several supernatural events, he was no longer as afraid of death.

However, when he saw the stack of dark brown human skin paper beside him, he was slightly stunned.

The parchment.

To Yang Jian, it was the most bizarre and evil thing.

Out of concern, he opened the parchment to check if anything had changed recently.

"Better safe than sorry. I should find a goldsmith to make a box to store this thing, just in case. If this human skin paper isn't just an object... but a ghost, I might die at its hands one day." Yang Jian began to consider.

However, when he checked the parchment, he suddenly saw a line of text appear on it.

"Today, after taking a shower, I checked the parchment and discovered a special ability of this parchment. It... seems to be able to seal other ghosts, and after sealing a ghost, I obtained a shocking secret."

"I learned a secret to truly live on from the parchment."

"It's like a deal. I'm considering whether to make this deal. Looking at this strange parchment, I'm hesitant."

"Stop hesitating, you're an idiot if you believe you. Fang Jing was tricked to death by you. The phrase 'a string of lies' was made for you." Yang Jian cursed, folded the parchment, and stopped looking at it.

It seemed that the parchment always grasped the deepest desires of your heart, knowing what you wanted most.

But it seemed to be using your desires to do something.

However, the reason Yang Jian hadn't thrown away the human skin paper was that everything written on it... was true.

Without the information from the parchment at school, he would have died even if he had become a ghost tamer.

So, in Yang Jian's mind, although he knew this thing was bizarre and evil, he couldn't help but keep it for self-preservation.

Holding onto any sliver of hope to survive.

Like a drowning person clinging to a straw, it was impossible to let go.

"I'm back, Yang Jian, are you still here?"

When Yang Jian came out of the bathroom, the door opened, and he saw Jiang Yan carrying a large bag, panting as she walked in.

"How did you come back so quickly from shopping?" Yang Jian asked, puzzled.

Out of instinct, he walked over and took the heavy bag.

Jiang Yan, a bit scared, said, "It's so late, I didn't dare to stay outside alone. What if I encountered a ghost? I ran all the way from the elevator."

"Ghost don't distinguish between day and night. You could encounter one during the day too." Yang Jian said.

"Right, but you have to save me then." Jiang Yan giggled, feeling particularly at ease when she saw Yang Jian, no longer nervous or afraid.

This was probably what they called a sense of security.

It turned out that such a thing really existed.

"Come in... hmm?" Yang Jian suddenly felt something abnormal in his body.

It wasn't his body that was wrong, but the ghost eye inside his body was acting up.

It seemed the ghost eye was out of control at this moment.

Almost without Yang Jian's control, it suddenly burst through the skin and opened.

On his hand, behind his head, on his body... six eyes in total.

Instantly reaching the limit of what he could achieve.

"What's happening? Why did the ghost eye suddenly act like this? It's like when I was bitten by the ghost infant." Yang Jian's face changed.

He had never encountered such a sudden abnormality before. The only time was when he was attacked by the ghost infant at school, and the ghost eye was stimulated to revive.

But this time, it happened again.

"Come in, close the door." Yang Jian pulled Jiang Yan over and immediately closed the door.

"I haven't taken a shower yet, don't be in such a hurry." Jiang Yan said shyly.

Yang Jian covered her mouth to silence her.

Seeing Yang Jian's serious and tense expression, Jiang Yan immediately realized something was wrong. She trembled, her eyes wide with fear. "No, not so unlucky? Another ghost?"

"Not here, outside the neighborhood."

Yang Jian, with the eye behind his head, saw the flickering lights outside, not far away.

He immediately ran to the window and looked out.

Not far from the neighborhood, a gray, hazy world stretched out. The streetlights couldn't penetrate it, and everything that touched this gray world seemed to be assimilated, becoming part of it, dark and lifeless.

"What is it?" Yang Jian's expression changed, and several of his eyes looked in that direction.

But after just two seconds.

All the ghost eyes that looked in that direction closed simultaneously.

Yes, they closed on their own, without Yang Jian's control, showing no signs of revival, as if sealed by the red paper, remaining very quiet.

"Are the ghost eyes afraid to look?" He was startled.

However, with his naked eye, Yang Jian could determine that the gray, hazy world was likely a Ghost Domain.

But the range it covered... was too large.

From west to south, it was a vast gray area, like a line of death, dividing the entire city.

If this was a Ghost Domain of a ghost, the terror of that ghost was unimaginable.

To define its level...

At least S, destruction level.

"Fortunately, we have good luck. The Ghost Domain just passed through the middle of the road, and the neighborhood wasn't affected. The ghost eye probably just sensed the big disturbance in advance." Yang Jian wasn't afraid but rather relieved.

If the Ghost Domain had passed through this building...

He would probably have died tonight.

"What... what happened? Is there another ghost?" Jiang Yan, not daring to breathe, cautiously approached and whispered.

"It's not related to us. It's just a passing ghost. It should leave soon."

Yang Jian saw that the Ghost Domain was beginning to dissipate.

The gray, hazy world gradually became clearer.

Based on his understanding of Ghost Domains, he knew the ghost had already left. Even though the Ghost Domain still seemed to be there, the ghost had probably gone to some other place.

After all, within a Ghost Domain, a ghost could appear at any location.

However, just as the Ghost Domain was about to completely disappear.

Yang Jian saw a surreal scene.

Like a mirage, it showed a corner of the gray, hazy world.

A flickering candlelight in the gray, hazy world.

Emitting eerie green flames.

Under the white candle was a golden candlestick, not an ancient craft, but a modern European style... possibly even made this month.

Under the candlelight, a pair of hands was reflected, smooth, white, and flawless.

This pair of hands was pierced by the other end of the candlestick, but no blood flowed out.

Finally, as the candlelight flickered, Yang Jian could see that the hands belonged to a woman. However, only the outline of the woman was visible, with no face or features...

Mysterious, unknown, or perhaps terrifying.

The scene finally disappeared, and the Ghost Domain vanished.

"Gold is used to seal ghosts. Those hands, that woman... did a ghost tamer fight this thing? But it seems the result was a failure."

"A ghost of this level couldn't be handled by a single ghost tamer. At least a team would be needed."

"But this ghost wasn't contained, which means the ghost tamers... were all wiped out."

Yang Jian took a deep breath.

Which country planned such an operation?

To dare to capture a ghost of this level, they must have been very bold.
