Chapter 91: The Situation In Da Jiang City
Da Chang City, outside.
Wang Xiao Ming shouted a few times and found no response, so he knew Lin Qian had rushed in.
He closed his eyes, feeling somewhat complicated inside.
Absolute reason told him that Lin Qian’s action was wrong, and there was no need to rescue Da Jiang City.
Even if the Supernatural Event was handled, Da Jiang City would have at most one in ten surviving.
Moreover, if Lin Qian also perished there, the loss would be incalculable.
But he was also hoping in his heart that Lin Qian could turn the tide, strongly handle Da Jiang City’s Supernatural Event, rescue his younger brother, and then rush over quickly to handle Da Chang City’s Supernatural Event.
Contradictory, extremely contradictory thoughts.
But the rational him knew very clearly that he could not influence Lin Qian’s actions.
“Hoo~!”
“Lin Qian, I hope you can succeed.”
“He’s my only family left.”
Wang Xiao Ming muttered to himself.
But soon, the other party put away this expression.
He was expressionless, stood up, and walked out of the temporary meeting room.
He found Zhao Jianguo and Cao Yanhua.
“Lin Qian is back and is now handling Da Jiang City’s Supernatural Event.”
“I have grasped part of the situation regarding Da Jiang City’s Supernatural Event.”
“It’s not composed of one S-level Supernatural Event, but two.”
“I advised Lin Qian, but it had no effect. We all know Lin Qian’s personality; it’s not something we can influence.”
First surprise, then shock, and finally silence.
When they heard Lin Qian was back, they subconsciously thought that even if Da Jiang City’s Supernatural Event couldn’t be handled, at least they could get intelligence.
After all, the Lin Qian in their impression had top-notch escape skills.
But later, upon hearing that Da Jiang City was composed of not one but two S-level Supernatural Events, they were immediately startled.
Then, hearing that Lin Qian had directly started handling the Supernatural Event, they fell silent.
After hearing that Wang Xiao Ming’s dissuasion was useless, they were even more silent.
“Nonsense!”
Cao Yanhua’s face immediately turned grim.
If it were any other Ghost Controller handling the Supernatural Event, he would definitely be delighted to see it.
But Lin Qian was different; he could essentially be considered a researcher.
His ability to make Fierce Ghosts enter dormancy was an extremely important technology for headquarters.
“Zhao Jianguo, immediately have Fang Shiming send people—no, have him go to Da Jiang City personally.”
“Lin Qian absolutely cannot have any mishaps. Also, contact Ye Zhen from Da Hai City; no matter what, make him go to Da Jiang City!”
“Professor Wang, you return to Da Jing City immediately.”
As soon as Cao Yanhua said the last sentence, Wang Xiao Ming’s eyes flashed, “You mean…”
Cao Yanhua nodded solemnly, “Have Qin Lao take action.”
“But Wei Jing must guard Da Jing City before Qin Lao returns.”
Wang Xiao Ming: “…”
“Wei Jing is in Da Jiang City. He just fought five Ghost Controllers, lost, was rescued by Lin Qian, and now his Fierce Ghost is dormant and needs to recover, which will take about half a day.”
Cao Yanhua: “…”
No doubt, the one at headquarters who could arrange for Wei Jing to go to Da Jiang City, besides him and the minister, was Wang Xiao Ming.
“Half a day…”
“Forget it.”
Cao Yanhua didn’t say anything more. The moment he heard Wei Jing was in Da Jiang City, he knew that old man at headquarters couldn’t be called upon.
“Professor Wang, you don’t need to go back.”
“Zhao Jianguo, do what I said immediately.”
Zhao Jianguo knew the severity of the situation and didn’t dare delay, hurrying to contact the Circle of Friends and Supernatural Forum.
Da Jing City, Circle of Friends.
When Fang Shiming received Zhao Jianguo’s call, he thought it was to have him handle a Supernatural Event.
But upon hearing that Lin Qian was back and had rushed into Da Jiang City, he immediately stood up.
“What? You let Lin Qian handle the Supernatural Event alone?”
“Zhao Jianguo, your headquarters actually let a researcher handle an S-level Supernatural Event?”
“You guys are fucking insane!”
Fang Shiming could hardly believe it—that was Lin Qian!
A treasure!
For such a person, letting him handle a Supernatural Event was one thing, but it was an S-level one.
Did headquarters really treat talent like firewood?
Zhao Jianguo was cursed out harshly, but he also knew how crazy this was.
The corner of his eye twitched uncontrollably.
“I’m heading to Da Jiang City right now. You better pray Lin Qian is still alive!”
Fang Shiming hung up the phone directly.
Joking aside, the Circle of Friends had just started to rise, and now the person who made it rise was about to be gone?
How could that be?
“No, sending a clone isn’t safe; better to go with the main body.”
Fang Shiming turned and directly opened the safe, taking out a golden box from inside.
Then, he closed his eyes.
Da Jing City, a hidden place.
In a room, there was a coffin.
The coffin was suddenly pushed open, and a pale hand carrying cold yin grabbed the edge of the coffin.
Crack crack crack~!
The sound of bones rubbing rang out.
A gust of cold wind blew out.
Immediately after, the person in the coffin vanished from the spot.
Circle of Friends, a gust of wind blew through, and the box on the desk disappeared instantly.
Fang Shiming immediately closed his eyes, leaned back in the chair, and a cold yin emanated from his body.
Da Hai City.
Supernatural Forum.
“Oh? You want me to go to Da Jiang City to save someone?”
“Why?”
A young man leaned back in the chair, propping his chin, looking at the phone on the desk with interest.
A voice sounded from the phone, not knowing what the other party said.
The young man’s expression changed slightly, then he stood up, eyes flickering.
“Fine.”
After the young man spoke, he instantly disappeared from the spot.
Above Da Hai City, a dazzling stream of fireflies parted the clouds and streaked across the sky.
When someone looked at the sky, they would see this spectacle and couldn’t help but exclaim in admiration.
What beautiful streaking light!
Da Jiang City.
Terrifying Supernatural forces collided, Ghost Domains tearing and crashing into each other.
Lin Qian stood within the Ghost Domain, calmly watching the colliding Ghost Domain.
The ghost possessing the Ghost Domain in Da Jiang City had not fully revived yet.
It wasn’t terrifying to that degree yet.
So, its Ghost Domain was not as terrifying as his.
With his Supernatural fully unleashed, two S-level Fierce Ghosts on him, and one Fierce Ghost on the verge of S-level.
With three Fierce Ghosts’ Supernatural fully erupting, he couldn’t suppress one S-level Fierce Ghost?
Merely a Ghost Domain.
Ghost Domains collided, constantly shattering into fragments, like space cracking.
The scene exploded.
Da Jiang City’s Ghost Domain was slowly being suppressed.
The Ghost Domain was retreating, and Lin Qian’s Ghost Domain was step by step taking over and enveloping Da Jiang City.
Da Jiang City was about to be covered in heavy goose-feather snow.
Lin Qian advanced into Da Jiang City step by step along with the Ghost Domain.
Two ghosts—he had to handle one first, or once they collided, there would be big problems.
Lin Qian hadn’t sensed the Ghost Performer yet.
This meant his Ghost Domain hadn’t covered the area where the Ghost Performer was yet.
No rush, it was close; the speed of the Supernatural confrontation would be fast.
At most a few minutes, and his Ghost Domain would suppress the opponent’s Ghost Domain, covering most of Da Jiang City.
As long as he found the Ghost Performer’s location, he could directly go detain it.
Any Fierce Ghost, placed before him to handle, his priority would only be his own puzzle piece.
The pressure from the Supernatural confrontation wasn’t too great, still within an acceptable range.
The owner of the Ghost Domain was very terrifying, undoubtedly.
It hadn’t fully revived yet, and the terror level was already this high.
If fully revived, who knew how terrifying it would be.
But no matter how terrifying, he couldn’t prioritize handling this ghost.
He could only handle the Ghost Performer first.
Moreover, he couldn’t enter this ghost’s Ghost Domain.
Before knowing the opponent’s killing pattern, entering the opponent’s Ghost Domain meant being constantly under the opponent’s killing pattern.
Ghost Performer and an S-level Fierce Ghost attacking simultaneously—even he would struggle.
“Three minutes to cover half of Da Jiang City. I hope you don’t revive too quickly.”
Lin Qian narrowed his eyes, watching the continuously retreating Ghost Domain.
Inside Da Jiang City.
A woman wearing a ghost mask looked up at the Ghost Domain from outside that was continuously suppressing Da Jiang City’s Ghost Domain.
“Is that Lin Qian back?”
“So dominant.”
“Couldn’t stop it; looks like they failed.”
“Not entering the Ghost Domain, but using Ghost Domain to suppress Ghost Domain—what are you planning?”
“Which ghost to prioritize?”
“Probably the Ghost Play Troupe’s ghost, after all, your members are there.”
The woman with the ghost mask muttered to herself.
Then, her figure slowly vanished from the spot.
Ice and snow advanced, the Ghost Domain continuously retreating.
Supernatural confronted at high places, not at low ones.
Three minutes passed in a flash.
Suddenly, the Ghost Performer inside him became restless.
Lin Qian’s gaze sharpened; in the instant the Ghost Domain retreated, he saw it.
And sensed it.
Over there at the old campus—from that campus onward, three-quarters of the city was covered by a strange Supernatural.
The Supernatural was confronting another ghost.
The Supernatural was confined within that three-quarters of the city.
But because of his intervention, it had suppressed the other ghost’s Ghost Domain.
The Supernatural was rapidly losing control, spreading toward the surroundings.
The Supernatural making his Ghost Performer restless.
Undoubtedly, it was the Ghost Play Troupe’s puzzle piece.
Lin Qian stood in the air, gazing at the campus that had turned dark due to the Supernatural.
That pool of blood-colored water was extremely conspicuous.
The Supernatural was immensely thick.
Through the blood pool, underground, three people were lying.
Three people wrapped in blood.
“Ghost Shouyi’s blood, Ye Feng…”
“Looks like these three are still alive.”
“What about Manyue, Yu Lin, Zhang Han?”
He only saw Ye Feng, Wang Xiaoqiang, Lu Lin—the other three weren’t visible.
His gaze shifted, straining his eyesight.
Unfortunately, he couldn’t see anything more.
Inside that door was gold, which he couldn’t see through. Although the door was open, the Supernatural was too thick, blocking all lines of sight.
“Three alive is acceptable.”
The Ghost Domain continued to press forward.
But suddenly, he noticed something strange.
At this moment, in the city covered by his Ghost Domain.
A sneaky person stood in front of a street, hesitating whether to enter.
Even though the street was full of corpses with eerie expressions.
And that person was mostly rotten on his body.
The other party seemed to think of something and finally made up his mind.
Supernatural surged on his body, blood-colored grave soil covering his body, leaving only a pair of eyes to see things.
Then he rushed directly toward that street.
But as soon as he lifted his foot, a snow-white hand pressed down on him.
“Da Sha Chun, what are you doing?”
The Supernatural was instantly suppressed; the man was startled and quickly turned back.
“You… who are you?”
The moment he saw it was a strange figure wearing a mask, panic surged in his heart.
He desperately tried to mobilize his Supernatural to break free from the suppression.
But to his terror, he couldn’t break free at all. His Fierce Ghost wasn’t fully suppressed, but his attacks against the other party were like water splashed into the sea—completely ineffective.
“Yan Li, behave yourself.”
Hearing the other party call his name, Yan Li was stunned and immediately realized the other definitely knew him.
He stopped struggling but still watched the other warily.
“Who are you?”
“You should call me President.”
Lin Qian released his hand from Yan Li’s shoulder.
He raised his hand and looked at his palm—it was a patch of blood red.
“President? You’re Lin Qian!” Yan Li suddenly realized.
Lin Qian shook off the blood from his hand; the blood fell to the ground and then sought its owner, returning to its master’s body.
“Suppression power, unparalleled in this era. Though surpassed by some specific ghosts, against anomalies, once suppressed, there’s almost no way to break free.”
“Those five outside shouldn’t have been dealt with by Wei Jing; it should have been you.”
“Unfortunately, no one knew you were here, or your current condition.”
Now, Yan Li’s suppression power was terrifying to the extreme.
Grave soil plus Ghost Blood, suppression power stacked.
To suppress him, it actually required seven parts of Supernatural.
Yan Li was somewhat dazed, but he still asked, “Is there a place outside that needs me?”
“No need anymore.”
Lin Qian waved his hand and looked toward the street ahead—amid the street full of corpses, he sensed a strange Supernatural.
The Supernatural was very terrifying, making even him feel a trace of danger.
“You were planning to rush in just now?”
Lin Qian asked.
Yan Li withdrew his Supernatural and nodded, “Wang Xiaoqiang and the others are inside; I want to go check.”
“But I rushed in several times, managing to hold out for at most three minutes before having to retreat.”
“That street has someone singing opera; at first it sounded fine, but the longer I listened, the more dangerous it felt.”
“Later I didn’t dare go deeper and hurried out, and only after coming out did I realize my expression had changed at some point.”
“Sometimes smiling, sometimes crying.”
“Sorry, I’m not capable enough; I couldn’t even find Wang Xiaoqiang or confirm if they’re dead or alive.”
Yan Li felt somewhat guilty.
They had helped him control a second ghost, letting him survive.
And he couldn’t even help a little.
Hearing this, Lin Qian wanted to rub his face to ease his emotions.
But when he put his hand on his face, he realized he was wearing a mask.
Reckless fools!
All fucking reckless fools!
Couldn’t there be one normal person?
The moment he returned, he heard that Wang Xiaoqiang had led the members straight into the Ghost Play Troupe’s Supernatural Event.
Then, they failed.
Now, he saw another one, Yan Li, wanting to charge into the Ghost Play Troupe’s Supernatural to find Wang Xiaoqiang.
And from what the other said, he had already gone in many times.
“…”
“Yan Li, you’re still alive—truly a miracle.”
Lin Qian patted Yan Li’s shoulder, “Go outside the city and watch the five ice sculptures; don’t let anyone release them.”
“Leave this to me.”
“Pre… President, I can help.” Yan Li said very seriously.
Just eating without working wasn’t his style.
“Listen.”
“But…”
Lin Qian looked at Yan Li, was silent for a moment, and sighed, “All good people.”
With that, he waved his hand, and Yan Li was instantly forcibly taken outside by the Ghost Domain.
“Almost couldn’t take him away.”
“Ghost Blood plus grave soil—is the terror level this high?”
Lin Qian stroked his chin and looked ahead.
His figure flickered, appearing in the high air.
The Ghost Domain was still confronting the other Fierce Ghost’s Ghost Domain.
This area belonged to the Ghost Performer’s territory.
He hadn’t covered it with his Ghost Domain yet.
He was currently unsure what it would be like to confront two ghosts at once.
But it definitely wouldn’t be a good situation.
The other ghost had already demonstrated the result.
When he confronted it together with the Ghost Performer, the opponent’s Ghost Domain retreated.
“Somewhat torn…”
Lin Qian’s eyes flickered, “Forget it, charge straight in!”
Without any hesitation, the Ghost Domain forcibly covered over.
In an instant, the Ghost Domain covered the area where the Ghost Performer was.
Immediately, Lin Qian’s heart sank; within his Ghost Domain, a strange singing voice suddenly rang out.
The voice echoed in the Ghost Domain, extremely fast.
The moment he heard the singing, Lin Qian knew this Ghost Performer was extremely terrifying.
And the result was just that—because he discovered that anyone hearing the singing would be attacked.
Moreover, this singing was stacking!
Lin Qian looked at his hand; it was flickering, meaning he was dodging the Fierce Ghost’s attack.
And this flickering frequency meant he was being attacked continuously.
The pressure increased instantly.
The speed of Ghost Domain suppressing Ghost Domain slowed down immediately, even showing signs of being suppressed.
Three-way stalemate?
