Mysterious Resurrection: Starting with Controlling Sadako

Chapter 243 Speaking on your knees
"Yang Jian?"

Yang Jian gave a bitter smile.

"Isn't it a bit too arrogant to give this kid such a name?"

'I'm more like it,' Yang Jian thought to himself.

Wang Liang smiled and shook his head: "Just kidding, let's go with the ghost child then. Alright, things aren't over yet. Don't rush to take the ghost child out of Wang Shanshan's stomach. There's still one last step."

"You mean, starving ghosts?" Yang Jian understood what Teacher Wang meant.

"Yes, the ghost child is currently quiet because the power of the ghost eye has overwhelmed the power of the hungry ghost's gloom."

However, the hungry ghost has not completely severed its connection with the ghost child, since the ghost child was formed from the ghost's supernatural power.

To make it a true ghost slave, you must first deal with the starving ghost, severing its connection with all derivative supernatural entities. After that, even if the starving ghost produces new ghost slaves, the ghost child will have no further connection to them.

"Understood, we still have to go and confront the S-rank ghost." Yang Jian nodded.

"You stay here and protect Wang Shanshan and the ghost child. After all, the ghost child isn't a real ghost; it can be destroyed," Wang Liang said.

"That starving ghost?" Yang Jian hesitated.

“I’ll go. That’s what I came here to do anyway, since I took a job from the island nation,” Wang Liang said.

“But that’s an S-class vengeful ghost, there are only a few in the whole world. Why don’t we send Wang Shanshan out first, and then we can go together to be on the safe side?” Yang Jian suggested.

Wang Liang refused, saying, "Sometimes the battle between supernatural beings isn't decided by having one more or one less person. Don't worry, the starving ghost isn't a big problem for me. The main thing is to take into account the wishing ghost. You just need to protect Wang Shanshan."

"Will it succeed?"

"Will do."

Wang Liang took a step forward and disappeared, leaving only one sentence behind.

"You can keep this TV. Stay around here."

Yang Jian shifted his gaze to the edge of the rooftop, where an old television set sat. The surroundings were dim and gloomy, and white-clad female ghosts kept emerging from it and falling to the ground below.

When Yang Jian looked through his ghostly eyes, he didn't see an old television set, but rather layers upon layers of eerie rooms.

Each room is inhabited by a female ghost in white, and as more rooms are added, the number of female ghosts in the new rooms also increases, and then they collectively invade reality.

Dozens? Hundreds? Or even more?

Yang Jian had lost count; he used his Ghost Eye to penetrate the wall and look down at the street.

The area below the building was densely packed with disheveled female ghosts, shrugging their shoulders and bowing their heads, each exuding an eerie and chilling aura, guarding the building.

All the derivative ghost infants in the vicinity have been torn to pieces, including the fourth-stage ghost infant.

The ghost infant can only grow to the fourth stage by eating ghosts. At this moment, among the female ghosts on the street, there is a fierce ghost whose body is covered with black cracks, lying there silently. It is the fierce ghost that was swallowed by the fourth-stage ghost infant earlier.

Yang Jian looked at the television screen that was continuously releasing female ghosts, and then at the white-clad female ghosts crowding the streets below, and shook his head.

"This kind of supernatural phenomenon is terrifying. Just the sheer number of these phenomena is enough to make it comparable to an S-class supernatural event. Give Teacher Wang some time, and he could easily create an S-class supernatural event on his own. No wonder Teacher Wang is not afraid of the starving ghosts. Tsk tsk."

As the gray light swept across the city, which resembled a hellish ruin, Wang Liang could see the ghostly infants in the city surging towards the building where Yang Jian was.

After losing a fourth-stage ghost infant there, the Hungry Ghost obviously wants to send more ghost infants there to overwhelm the area, and may even eventually send them out himself.

However, before that, Wang Liang had already arrived near Shenchuan Private Middle School.

Wang Liang stood atop a building, a kilometer away, gazing at the school shrouded in heavy smog. In the haze, he could vaguely see terrifying figures standing motionless, like tombstones on the ground.

Those are all ghost infants, and most of them are stage three ghost infants. They were deliberately gathered in the school by the starving ghosts, and their number is probably no less than a thousand.

But that was never what Wang Liang cared about. A gray light appeared beside Wang Liang, and Wang Liang appeared there as well, before dissipating. His mission was complete.

Next, we need to confirm that the wishing ghost is on the starving ghost. If not, we need to give it a threat to force the wishing ghost to steal the starving ghost's possession in advance.

Only by granting the wishing ghost a ghostly body can Zhao Kaiming fulfill his agreement with the ghost, and only then can he completely fall into the trap of making a deal with the ghost, unknowingly sacrificing his own life to resurrect the ghost's family.

The simplest way to confirm the situation of the wishing ghost is to first find Zhao Kaiming. Zhao Kaiming couldn't be too far from where the starving ghost is; he must be in the school shrouded in gloom.

Thinking this, Wang Liang released Sadako's ghost domain outwards. The faded gray-white world mercilessly covered the school a kilometer away, invading into the heavy gloom.

Then Wang Liang vanished from the spot in a flash.

In a classroom on the first floor of Kamikawa Private Junior High School,

Zhao Kaiming sat expressionlessly in a chair placed on the podium, twirling a telephone in his hand.

Suddenly, his eyes lost their color, as if he had entered an old, gray portrait.

But the disappearance of the colors quickly returned to normal, and the gloom of the starving ghosts once again enveloped the school.

However, there was an extra person in his classroom out of nowhere.

“Wang Liang,” Zhao Kaiming said.

Zhao Kaiming's expression was cold, somewhat different from his previous gloomy and crazy demeanor.

Standing in front of Zhao Kaiming was Wang Liang, his hands in the pockets of his black overcoat, looking at Zhao Kaiming with the same expressionless face.

As Zhao Kaiming called out Wang Liang's name, a pale arm suddenly emerged from each of Zhao Kaiming's eyes with a soft "pfft".

The pale arm burst Zhao Kaiming's eyeballs, stretched outwards in a ferocious manner, its joints twisted abnormally, and it grabbed Zhao Kaiming's neck with its backhand, snapping it.

Caught off guard by the ghost's attack, Zhao Kaiming collapsed to the ground, motionless for a moment, seemingly not expecting Wang Liang to make a move so suddenly.

After a brief silence, Zhao Kaiming continued speaking as if he were unharmed:

"It's no use, that ghost is inside me now, you can't hurt me."

The two Sadako arms that had been protruding from Zhao Kaiming's eyes turned to ashes, and his eyeballs returned to normal.

He pushed himself up and stared coldly at Wang Liang.

"So it really was you. If you hadn't come, I was about to call you."

"Oh? I'm already being lenient by not bothering to settle scores with you, and you still want to specifically seek me out? Kneel down and talk first."

Wang Liang raised his hand and pointed downwards.

A strange white shadow was reflected in the classroom window.

Click, click.

Zhao Kaiming's legs were suddenly covered with black cracks, and then they shattered on the ground with a crash.

His body was forced to fall to the ground again, lying face down in front of Wang Liang.
