Investigating the source and finding the mastermind was just a matter of convenience for Yang Jian at the moment. The priority was to find a way to survive and avoid dying from the resurgence of the fierce ghost.

However, he did not ask this Hao Shaowen right away, as he knew they would only yield and voluntarily reveal what they knew about the terrifying nature of the ghost tamers once they understood it.

A method to avoid the resurgence of the fierce ghost?

Hao Shaowen was initially surprised by this question, but then suddenly smiled and said, “There is such a method that was said to have originated from some country… It was a coincidence that a ghost tamer, perhaps favored by the heavens, managed to survive for a whole year without dying from the resurgence of the fierce ghost.”

Surviving for a year?

Yang Jian’s eyes flickered with interest. A ghost tamer’s lifespan depended on how fast the ghost in their body resurged. Even if they did not use their ghostly abilities, he estimated that they would not live for more than half a year. Frequent use of their abilities would accelerate the ghost’s resurgence and shorten their lifespan.

However, a ghost tamer who could survive for a year was undoubtedly a miracle.

“What is the specific method?” Yang Jian asked, staring at Hao Shaowen.

“You wouldn’t want to know,” Hao Shaowen teased. “It’s a special case, perhaps one in a thousand ghost tamers. That method is almost impractical, and people like you are doomed to die soon… After all, you should have died a long time ago. It’s the ghost in your body that’s keeping you alive.”

“Whether it’s practical or not depends on me, not you. There are twenty seconds left,” Yang Jian said seriously, looking at the countdown on his phone.

“You want to live, don’t you?” Hao Shaowen suddenly sneered. “Then let’s leave here first, and I’ll tell you the information after we’re safe.”

“You have no bargaining power. There are only two choices: to speak or not to speak. Ten seconds left.”

“Boss, tell him. This guy is crazy and abnormal. Look at how he killed so many people without blinking an eye. He’s probably close to resurrection himself,” one of Hao Shaowen’s henchmen said.

“Yeah, there’s no need to confront a lunatic. Tell him the information, and we won’t take this business again,” the other henchman added.

Watching the countdown on the table, their hearts were pounding.

This person was different from Yan Li. His ghost was extraordinary.

“I don’t believe you. I’ll only tell you after I’m safe. That’s my condition. Otherwise, we’ll all die together,” Hao Shaowen’s face twisted with a fierce expression as he pulled out a grenade from his pocket.

“Even if it can create illusions, if this thing explodes, no one in this room will survive. Even a ghost tamer won’t be able to resurrect,” Yang Jian said, glancing at the grenade. “You guys have a broad network. You can get your hands on dangerous things like this. But do you think this thing is useful against me?””How can we know without trying? You’re a dangerous person, even if I tell you, I might not live. It’s better to take a chance.” Hao Shaowen said.

“Your threats are useless to me. Don’t forget that you’re not the only one who knows this information. That Wu Feng has already been locked up, and I can ask him the same thing.”

“……” Upon hearing this, Hao Shaowen immediately felt somewhat disheartened.

He had almost forgotten that Yang Jian had more than just himself as a bargaining chip.

With Wu Feng in his hands, interrogating Wu Feng would also reveal the information he wanted to know.

“That useless guy, not only did he fail to accomplish the task, but he also brought me such a big trouble.” Hao Shaowen wanted to curse his pig-like teammate, but it didn’t seem like the right time to do so.

Without much hesitation, he immediately said, “Fine, I’ll tell you what I know. Whether you believe it or not has nothing to do with me.”

“Of course.” Yang Jian replied.

“As far as I know, the death of a Ghost Controller due to the resurrection of a fierce ghost is an unavoidable outcome. At least from the information I’ve obtained, there hasn’t been a single exception. However, there is an extreme method that can prolong the time of survival.”

“Go on.”

Hao Shaowen paused for a moment and continued, “Some people have concluded that only ghosts can deal with ghosts. So, a madman, when he was about to die from the resurrection of a fierce ghost, made an attempt… to let a second ghost enter his body.”

“Controlling two ghosts at the same time?”

Yang Jian raised his eyebrows, “That would lead to a quicker death.”

“Yes, theoretically that’s correct. But there is another outcome: the two ghosts restrain each other, achieving a delicate balance. This balance ultimately results in… the time of the fierce ghost’s resurrection being greatly delayed.” Hao Shaowen said seriously.

Yang Jian laughed, “An interesting and crazy approach, seeking life from death? Indeed, only a madman would do such a thing, but that person succeeded.”

“Yes, he succeeded, but as far as I know, there is only this one case. After that, Ghost Controllers from various countries tried to experiment, but without exception, all of them failed and died miserably.”

Hao Shaowen continued, “So, that person’s success was considered an anomaly. All countries knew about this method, but they banned the news, absolutely prohibiting it from spreading. It’s highly classified.”

“Highly classified? It seems that they are afraid that if Ghost Controllers know this method, they will go crazy trying it, leading to a rapid decrease in their numbers and ultimately affecting the stability of the country.”

Yang Jian quickly understood why the country would ban the news from spreading.

Ghost Controllers are bound to die anyway, so they naturally dare to take this risk. But the price of taking this risk is dying earlier.

The loss is too great, and it is not conducive to the overall situation, so it must be blocked.

“How you deduce it is your business. I just told you this method. But even if I told you, would you dare to try it?” Hao Shaowen asked.

“I might consider it.” Yang Jian pondered.

This method seemed simple, but in practice, it was extremely dangerous.

Which Ghost Controller would dare to let a second ghost enter their body?

If the two ghosts did not restrain each other as expected, there would only be one outcome: immediate death.

However, this method could be used as a last resort before death.

Win and enjoy life, lose and work in hell.

“I’ve said what I had to say. Can I leave now?” Hao Shaowen asked.

Suddenly, Yang Jian glanced at the phone on the table, stood up, and said, “I’m a man of my word. Although you’ve told me everything I wanted to know, I should let you go. Unfortunately, your time has run out.”

He pointed at the countdown on the chair.

It had already reached zero.

“So, I ask the three of you to leave together.”

“By the way, is what you’re holding really a grenade? Why couldn’t it be a Kinder Surprise Egg?”

Hao Shaowen’s eyes suddenly narrowed upon hearing this.

He looked at the object in his hand… somehow, it had indeed turned into a Kinder Surprise Egg.

“Yang Jian!”

Hao Shaowen was both shocked and angry, holding the golden stick in his hand and wanting to rush forward to kill this hateful guy.

From the very beginning, this brat had been toying with him.

The moment he entered the living room, he and his men were like fish in a barrel, with no escape. Yang Jian only said so much to extract information from him, and never intended to let him go.

“Goodbye~!”

Yang Jian waved his hand with a smile.

The red light in the living room flickered slightly, and everything around them changed in an instant.

The corpses on the ground disappeared, the man embedded in the wall was gone, the two living subordinates were gone… Even Hao Shaowen, who was rushing over, disappeared, leaving only a golden stick on the ground.

Yet the living room was still the living room.

But there was no trace of these people, as if they had vanished into thin air, leaving only a few items behind.
