Chapter 185: Will The Branch Be The Next Headquarters?
If the usual revival state is compared to a bowl of water, then when a ghost wielder uses supernatural power or suffers a ghost attack, it’s equivalent to pouring “water” that doesn’t belong to it into this bowl that isn’t yet full.
Once supernatural power is used too frequently, or the attacks suffered exceed the maximum terror level one can bear.
Then the water in the bowl will increase, eventually overflowing.
And Ye Zhen’s current revival state is a bucket of water; pouring in once or twice is fine, but Jiang Shan’s continuous attacks will cause the “water” in Ye Zhen’s “bucket” to increase more and more, becoming heavier and heavier, finally crushing Ye Zhen to death.
This is the same principle as the king besieging Ye Zhen; the king’s attack frequency is too high, Ye Zhen’s substitute death can’t keep up, and he will eventually be killed.
And this is the reason Jiang Shan dares to conflict with Ye Zhen when his own condition isn’t great.
Nothing else,
All of this stems from the crushing supernatural level, so the pressure Jiang Shan feels when facing Ye Zhen is even not much different from that with Fang Shiming.
No pressure,
It’s just a bit troublesome.
As the dull knocking sound continued to ring out, the ghost wielders who hurried back under Committee Member Cao’s instructions stared dumbfounded at the scene in front of the building.
Some were shocked speechless, some searched for Jiang Shan’s figure in the silver light with faces full of fear, and some even raised their mobile phones wanting to record this spectacular scene.
“Is this Jiang Shan’s strength? He’s even more terrifying than I imagined; not only can he use supernatural power to suppress a ghost alive to a harmless degree, he even beats Ye Zhen without the ability to fight back.”
At this moment, Cao Yang watching from the side was extremely shocked in his heart.
“I thought Ye Zhen, who has long enjoyed a reputation in the ghost wielder circle, was already a top figure in the supernatural circle at his level, but unexpectedly this Jiang Shan who has just become a ghost wielder for less than half a year is even more terrifying, strongly suppressing supernatural, ghost domain affecting reality, attacks with no way to counter.
It seems simple and ordinary, yet reveals an unattainable height.
No wonder people in the supernatural circle call Jiang Shan the world number one.
Previously Cao Yang was somewhat disbelieving, but now it seems it might be true.
“My uncle really has far-sighted vision; he judges people accurately! Who could have thought Jiang Shan would be so formidable; isn’t he afraid of fierce ghost revival? But no matter what, coming with him back then was the right choice.”
“Although headquarters is big and powerful, even backed by the country, its establishment and internal member arrangements are rotten to the core; headquarters has lasted until now entirely due to the dedication of the persons in charge everywhere; once headquarters has a big problem, the branch could very well be the next headquarters.”
The more Cao Yang thought, the more excited he became; he watched intently, his gaze always fixed on that patch of silver light, as if hoping Jiang Shan wouldn’t stop and would just keep beating like this.
After all, Ye Zhen is one of the only two ministers at headquarters.
Now every strike Jiang Shan lands on Ye Zhen will turn into reputation for the Northeast Branch!
Newcomer stepping on the corpse of the old to reach the top.
This is a scene all ghost wielders of the Da Chun City Branch love to see, because the stronger the branch, the more benefits they can get.
Just as everyone continued to watch with full anticipation.
“Hm? Why did Jiang Shan stop?” Cao Yang asked with a face full of doubt.
Only to see that silver light covering dozens of meters in radius disappear at a certain moment, leaving Jiang Shan on the spot holding Ye Zhen like limp mud in one hand and a weird golden rod wrapped in chains in the other.
“Da da~ da~!”
Leather shoes stepping on the ground produced crisp and powerful sounds; just from these footsteps, ghost wielders who have experienced several supernatural events could judge from the footsteps alone,
That the person from whom these footsteps came has a very good body, even unusually good!
“Ye Zhen is handed to you two; he won’t wake up for a while. Have someone craft a golden coffin at the fastest speed, lock his hands and feet completely with golden chains, seal him into the coffin, then put it in the study room of my villa.”
Looking at Jiang Shan with a pale face but cold expression, Cao Yang and Zhou Deng inexplicably felt a surge of fear in their hearts.
“Guaranteed to complete the mission, thanks for your hard work, Minister Jiang!” Zhou Deng immediately replied.
“No problem, Brother Jiang; after handling Ye Zhen, is there anything else you need us to do?”
Cao Yang, who had just handled the fierce ghost and was in poor condition, also forced out a smile, followed by Zhou Deng speaking.
Although Zhou Deng and Cao Yang were both much older than Jiang Shan, for some reason, whenever they saw Jiang Shan, their momentum and tone would always involuntarily weaken a bit.
“Cao Yang, in a bit tell Committee Member Cao Yanhua to pause the meeting for now, but have all persons in charge and officials stay temporarily; let Committee Member Cao Yanhua release that announcement, reconvene the meeting in three days.”
After speaking, Jiang Shan threw the half-dead Ye Zhen in his hand onto the ground; before his figure disappeared, he left one more sentence to Cao Yang:
“If those people from the supernatural forum come, tell them to bring enough ransom to redeem Ye Zhen; if they want to fight, tell them: the branch will accompany them anytime.”
“Yes! I’ll tell Committee Member Cao right away.”
When Jiang Shan completely disappeared from sight, Cao Yang, who looked extremely serious standing in place, let out a long breath.
“No meeting? Did Jiang Shan go to handle a ghost? Or go accompany his little girlfriend?”
Cao Yang, returning to his usual joking state, suddenly looked at Zhou Deng and spoke.
It wasn’t Cao Yang teasing Jiang Shan; because of Committee Member Cao Yanhua’s relation, he deliberately used this “human nature” joking manner to try to draw closer his relationship with Zhou Deng.
The ever-smooth Cao Yang wouldn’t foolishly mock his superior openly in front of other branch members.
That would be pure stupidity, right?
This sentence was one he had pondered for a long time before choosing to say to Zhou Deng.
“Don’t know, but tonight’s meeting won’t happen; looks like Minister Jiang wants to let the circle of friends and the Ye Zhen matter ferment a bit, then hold the meeting when his personal prestige reaches its peak.”
Zhou Deng casually brushed off Cao Yang; as someone who had just joined the branch, he naturally wouldn’t be foolish enough to joke about Jiang Shan with a “connected person” like Cao Yang.
Even if the joke was harmless, he wouldn’t say it.
After all, every ghost wielder is very realistic, because this realism concerns their own life!
He Zhou Deng had joined headquarters for over a year, fighting desperately for headquarters all that time, yet until now headquarters hadn’t helped him solve the revival problem of his third ghost.
Now that he finally latched onto a thick thigh with great difficulty, he didn’t want to cause Jiang Shan to be dissatisfied with him because of such trivial back-talk joking.
“Really don’t know what Jiang Shan will say at that meeting three days from now; he’s building momentum like this, continuously attracting folk ghost wielders to join the branch; looks like the domestic situation is indeed going to get chaotic.”
