Chapter 106: The Death Of Jiang Shangbai
“What?! You’re saying Jiang Shan actually released the Starving Ghost? What nonsense! What is he trying to do?!”
At this moment,
Cao Yanhua, who was in the Temporary Command Center, felt a surge of anger upon hearing this news.
But he did not lose his reason due to this anger; instead, he quickly calmed down and began thinking:
“What exactly is Jiang Shan’s purpose in doing this? Could it be to kill Jiang Shangbai? But if he wants to kill Jiang Shangbai, he has no need to do this at all. Does he have a grudge with the Circle of Friends?”
Just as Cao Yanhua was about to get Jiang Shan’s personal File to analyze his motives, he was caught in utter confusion.
Dachang City,
Original Seventh Middle School.
Most people on the stands looked incredulously at the Starving Ghost resurrecting in the coffin; they could not believe Jiang Shan would take such a crazy action.
“Is he insane?! He’s trying to get us all killed!” Some Ghost Wielders thought in shock and anger.
If not for Zhao Jianguo, Li Jun, and dozens of Ghost Wielders holding down the scene, some people might have already escaped from here at this moment.
At this moment,
Yang Jian, who knew the terror of the Starving Ghost, looked solemnly at Jiang Shan beside him, who was smoking with a calm expression, and could not help but remind him:
“Doing this is too risky, Jiang Shan. If you want to kill Jiang Shangbai, I can give you a hundred reasons. Once the Starving Ghost uses its Ghost Domain to leave, it will usher in terrifying growth.”
“Want a cigarette?” Jiang Shan asked.
Yang Jian frowned tightly, his voice hoarse as he continued:
“I don’t smoke, you.”
Before he could finish, Jiang Shan suddenly interrupted:
“Yang Jian, have you seen the Starving Ghost’s Ghost Domain? It can’t even bite through my Ghost Domain, let alone escape my control. Since you don’t smoke, just watch the show. Opportunities like this are rare.”
Hearing Jiang Shan’s words, Yang Jian’s eyes sharpened, and he shifted his gaze to the Starving Ghost.
He discovered,
Even though the Starving Ghost had already resurrected, and even though Jiang Shangbai was under its attack, the Starving Ghost was not as elusive as when it had attacked him back then.
On the contrary,
The Starving Ghost, enveloped in a layer of faint Silver Light, moved like an ordinary person with every action.
Even though the Starving Ghost could still use Ghost Fang, Ghost Robe, and other Ghost’s Abilities.
But it was chasing and killing Jiang Shangbai in a “running” manner!
“Is this the characteristic of Jiang Shan’s Ghost Domain?”
Yang Jian glanced around and noticed Li Jun and the many Ghost Wielders standing rigidly in place, as if under some Restriction.
And around them, there was all that faint Silver Light from the Starving Ghost’s body.
“It seems this layer of Silver Light is restricting the Ghost Wielders’ actions and also restricting the Starving Ghost’s Ghost Domain, so Jiang Shan can re-detain the Starving Ghost with a Coffin Nail at any time. Is this his confidence?” Yang Jian analyzed everything he observed in his mind.
It had to be said,
Yang Jian’s ability was indeed far beyond ordinary people; in just half a minute, he had discovered one of the characteristics of the Dead Face Ghost’s Ghost Domain.
Time passed second by second,
“What a Supernatural devouring ability. Without considering Yang Jian’s method, how can the Starving Ghost be controlled?”
Jiang Shan thought to himself after watching the entire process of the Starving Ghost attacking Jiang Shangbai.
Seeing that Jiang Shangbai was about to be killed by the Starving Ghost, Jiang Shan tossed away the cigarette butt in his hand.
His purpose had been achieved; it was time for the Starving Ghost to lie peacefully back in the coffin again.
No one understood Jiang Shan’s action of releasing the Starving Ghost, not even Cao Yanhua, who had gone through all the Files and found no suitable reason.
But how could Jiang Shan take risks to do something meaningless?
Since the Starving Ghost Incident broke out, in order to let the Situation further ferment and produce more impact.
Although Jiang Shan had been closely monitoring the Starving Ghost’s changes in the Temporary Command Center, besides knowing from the Original Work that the Starving Ghost had the ability to devour Fierce Ghosts.
He had never personally seen the Starving Ghost’s Ability from beginning to end.
Moreover, Jiang Shan did have some ideas about that Ghost Robe.
So he took the opportunity of the Jiang Shangbai incident to make a big fuss openly and release the Starving Ghost.
One arrow, three birds.
Why not?
“Thud~!”
As the Starving Ghost fell to the ground, Zhao Jianguo, who had been closely watching the Situation, finally breathed a long sigh of relief; the stone hanging in his heart had finally dropped.
He immediately organized personnel to re-detain the Starving Ghost and send it back to Headquarters as soon as possible.
No more accidents could be allowed.
With Jiang Shan’s “insane” precedent,
This time, even if Zhao Jianguo had to lie on the coffin lid and be sent back to Headquarters together with the Starving Ghost, he absolutely could not let the Starving Ghost be released again.
After hearing Zhao Jianguo’s orderly arrangements,
Jiang Shan on the stands silently lit a cigarette and then disappeared.
At this moment, Jiang Shangbai’s face had no trace of blood color, and his body faintly emitted a corpse stench.
“Jiang Shan! I will kill you!”
Jiang Shangbai’s eyes were full of Madness.
It was only because the Two Ghosts in his body were already on the verge of Resurrection; if he could not control a new Ghost in a short time to balance the Fierce Ghosts in his body,
Then Jiang Shangbai’s death countdown had already begun.
“You failed to successfully detain the Starving Ghost, and you can’t remove the Ghost Robe either. Twice, twice you failed. Now you can go home with peace of mind, but before killing you, I’ll let you die with eyes wide open.”
Jiang Shan’s voice came from all directions, falling into the ears of everyone present.
“Where? Where?!”
Before discovering Jiang Shan’s figure, blood-red Ghost Characters instantly crawled all over Jiang Shangbai’s body at a certain moment, and the Fierce Ghosts resurrecting in his body immediately went dormant.
“Ah!”
Feeling the Fierce Ghost go dormant, Jiang Shang was delighted.
But the next moment, a Withered Finger pierced through both his legs like a bullet.
The intense Pain made him kneel to the ground immediately.
In Jiang Shangbai’s resentful gaze,
Jiang Shan, with blood-red hands, walked to the Starving Ghost, squatted down, and peeled off the Ghost Robe from its body bit by bit, like tearing roast duck.
“Goodbye.”
Even though Zhao Jianguo kept persuading from the stands, and even though Cao Yanhua’s obstruction came from the Satellite Phone, Jiang Shan’s killing intent was set at this moment.
From the moment Jiang Shangbai attacked him, Jiang Shan had no intention of letting him go back alive.
“Ghost Wielders fear authority, not virtue.”
If you want this group of Ghost Wielders, no different from “madmen,” to revere you, you must kill with enough ruthlessness until they fear you.
So Jiang Shangbai was the chicken Jiang Shan killed to warn the monkeys; as for how many monkeys would be warned, that was not for him to decide.
As a blood-red Ghost Character appeared in Jiang Shangbai’s Consciousness,
In an instant, the Blood Ghost and Ghost Characters attacked him.
Terrifying Supernatural erupted in Jiang Shangbai’s mind.
“Thud~!”
As Jiang Shangbai’s Corpse fell, Jiang Shan picked up the Satellite Phone from his waist and said to Cao Yanhua:
“My current status should give me the authority to request a few Gold Boxes from Headquarters, right? I hope they can appear in front of me as soon as possible.”
There was a long silence on the other end of the phone, and finally, a single word was slowly replied:
“Okay.”
At this point,
The Starving Ghost Incident was completely over.
As that Golden Coffin was transported to Headquarters, a brand new File about Jiang Shan also entered the sight of certain people at Headquarters.
