Chapter 342 He is not qualified
"WeChat Moments? I think I've heard of it."

Upon hearing Li Yao's words, Wang Liang pretended to recall for a moment, then looked at Li Yao expressionlessly and said:

"Oh, I remember now, I think I killed one of your men before. That idiot Lou Hao, he was one of yours, right? So you're here to settle scores with me?"

At the end, the coldness in Wang Liang's tone caused Li Yao's expression to change.

Her confidence vanished instantly, brought back to reality. Realizing who she was standing in front of, Li Yao subconsciously took a step back.

Whether it was her imagination or not, the air around her seemed to have grown colder at this moment, causing Li Yao's body to tremble uncontrollably.

Li Yao's meeting with Wang Liang is different from the original storyline when she met Yang Jian.

Wang Liang and Ye Zhen had previously declared war on each other, giving all parties ample time to prepare.

That battle between top-tier demon tamers, which spanned from Da'an City to South Korea, covered thousands of kilometers in just a few seconds. The brief aftershocks killed thousands of people in a single city, and many factions witnessed it via satellite.

Li Yao also witnessed firsthand the power of top-tier ghost tamers at that time; human lives were as insignificant as grass in their eyes.

No matter how clever a mind, how eloquent a mouth, or how powerful a background, when the Ghost Master is enraged, they are nothing more than an ant that can be crushed at will.

This shocked the proud Li Yao and made her feel incredulous.

After all, hearing about something is never as impactful as seeing it with your own eyes; it was the first time she had witnessed a battle between top-tier ghost tamers.

As Fang Shiming's assistant, she always remained neither humble nor arrogant in front of the ghost tamer.

But after that public confrontation between Wang Liang and Ye Zhen, she became much more restrained in front of the ghost tamers within her circle of friends.

Li Yao was even more reluctant to come and see Wang Liang this time.

But there was no other way. In the end, he still suppressed the fear deep in his heart and came, but he dared not be as presumptuous as he was in front of Yang Jian in the original plot. He spoke cautiously and carefully.

But after only a few words, when Wang Liang mentioned Lou Hao, Li Yao knew she was in trouble and quickly explained:
"Please don't misunderstand, I'm not here because of Lou Hao. In fact, we in our circle of friends are also very dissatisfied with Lou Hao's disturbance at headquarters, so we won't say anything more about it."

Wang Liang nodded indifferently, tapping his arm repeatedly with his arms crossed.

"So, what exactly are you here for?"

Seeing that the matter was over, Li Yao breathed a sigh of relief and smiled again, saying:
"Here's the thing, you should know about the Captain Project, right? According to our information, the spots for the Captain Project have been gradually determined, and there aren't many left. There should be two spots available."

Of these confirmed spots, aside from the unannounced internal selections, your name is not among the publicly confirmed ones, even though you were nominated and arguably the most popular candidate.

"Hmm, and then?" Wang Liang asked.

Li Yao smiled, feeling that she had regained the initiative.

"You may not know this, but some things were largely decided when the plan was first finalized. It's not something that just anyone can change. This plan has the support of many domestic forces behind it, and the headquarters is not a one-man show."

At this point, Li Yao paused for a few seconds, seemingly giving Wang Liang some time to process the information, before continuing slowly:
"Your resume is impressive and your abilities are strong, but you've only been with headquarters for a short time, two months, which is a surprise to many people."

Especially since you truly rose to fame recently by resolving an S-class paranormal incident in Japan, but that came a bit late, which may explain why you haven't yet been officially selected as one of the top candidates.

"What about the pre-selected spots? Could it be that I've already been pre-selected?" Wang Liang asked.

Li Yao shook her head and smiled, explaining, "I don't know who the designated captain is, but I imagine they are either veteran Ghost Tamers who have already joined headquarters and made great contributions, or loyal figures that headquarters has been cultivating from the very beginning."

Those are all individuals who have been Ghost Tamers for at least one or two years and are still alive. The requirements for becoming a pre-selected captain are too high, and you have only been with headquarters for a short time. This is ultimately a potential limitation.

"So your friends on WeChat want to support me in getting a team leader position?" Wang Liang asked. Li Yao shook her head and said, "Well, we've already put forward one person to get the team leader position. We can't fully support two people, and headquarters won't just watch two team leaders become our people."

But she quickly added, "However, our idea is that you could perhaps join us and voluntarily give up competing for the captain's position."

In this way, once you join us, the resources and power we gain from securing the captaincy will also be available to you, which is a good thing for both of us.

In addition to your own influence, our captain, and my boss, Mr. Fang Shiming, who is also a top-notch ghost tamer.

If you join us, in the end, we'll be in charge of the entire country. Money, persuasion, and manpower will all be with us. Even the headquarters won't have our influence. What do you think?

Wang Liang stared into Li Yao's eyes without saying a word, but finally couldn't help but sneer.

Li Yao's expression turned somewhat unpleasant, and her smile froze: "What...what do you mean by this?"

Wang Liang clapped his hands approvingly: "That was well said, you're good at making empty promises, but you still don't understand the world of ghost tamers. What is a circle of friends? Go back and tell the person behind you that he's not qualified to recruit me."

After saying that, Wang Liang turned and walked into the room.

"Mr. Wang, wait a minute, you..."

boom.

The door has been closed.

Li Yao stared at the closed door, her expression constantly shifting.

Wang Liang refused, and his words implied a disdain for social media, which is definitely not a good thing.

As Li Yao stood outside the door, pondering how to report Wang Liang's attitude back to him.

The door suddenly opened again, and Li Yao looked over in surprise.

"Mr. Wang, have you changed your mind?"

"I almost forgot something."

Wang Liang suddenly reached out and grabbed Li Yao's small, pretty face, a chilling sensation seeping into her mind.

"Wang Liang, what are you trying to do!"

Li Yao screamed in terror, thinking that Wang Liang was going to kill her because they couldn't reach an agreement, and struggled violently in Wang Liang's hands.

But the next second, her eyes glazed over, and she stopped resisting, standing quietly in place.

Wang Liang activated Li Yao's memories, but didn't make many changes.

It was just a psychological suggestion left for Li Yao: when she learned that her friends were planning to take action against her, her second personality would awaken and she would immediately notify him.

Furthermore, the screen of Li Yao's phone suddenly lit up, and a new contact appeared strangely in her chat app contacts.

Whenever Wang Liang uses this to contact her, she is also replaced by the second personality, and completely obeys Wang Liang's orders to answer any questions Wang Liang wants to know on the software.

And afterwards, there will be no memory of it, nor will anyone pay attention to this extra contact.
