Chapter 77 The Suppression Quota of the Ghost Hand (Please continue reading)
The moment Yang Jian stepped into the puddle, he felt a distinct sense of weightlessness.

Then, the ghost eye on his forehead seemed to be suppressed by some supernatural force, and the red light was limited to a range of about ten centimeters around his body. It could only open when the three ghost eyes were superimposed.

This is a space that ordinary people cannot understand, filled with an eerie atmosphere, as if it were underwater, or under a gloomy sky.

Not far in front of Yang Jian, two figures, one in red and one in white, appeared.

It was Lu Ming and the mummified bride.

Yang Jian was startled, and the scarlet ghost eye on his forehead began to dart restlessly.

He had already made a basic assessment of Lu Ming's abilities when he was at the training base, and he thought it was roughly accurate, but he hadn't expected that he had underestimated him by a large margin.

With a sound of flesh churning, a scarlet eyeball without a pupil rolled to the back of Yang Jian's head.

Four ghost eyes were superimposed on each other.

The red light eroded outwards, fighting against Lu Ming's supernatural abilities.

Only then did Yang Jian's Ghost Domain barely unfold.

"This Lu Ming is even more terrifying than I imagined. He controls many ghosts. I'm afraid I'm not even worthy of fighting him with my Ghost Shadow and Ghost Eye... Perhaps I need to use the Ghost Hand I just mastered to have the qualifications to fight him."

With just a few ghost candles, Yang Jian had no intention of risking his life for headquarters.

This move was mostly a test.

In any case, he shouldn't have gotten involved in this mess.

If Yang Jian really had to choose a side, considering all factors, he might even side with Lu Ming.

So Yang Jian said frankly, "Lu Ming, headquarters sent me to stall you. I know very well that I can't complete this mission, so I will only make one move and then leave."

Yang Jian believed that Lu Ming would understand his meaning, so he gave a simple reminder and then slowly raised his hand.

If you look closely, you will find that there is a very obvious layer at the connection between Yang Jian's arm and hand, as if the pale and cold hand was attached later.

That's exactly what happened.

After incorporating the artificial coffin nails, Ghost Hand gained three suppression slots, enabling it to suppress three ghosts.

Yang Jian planned to use the Ghost Hand to suppress the three ghosts controlled by Lu Ming first.

This way, regardless of the outcome, it will be easier for him to run away if he wants to.

But before the red light of the ghost eye could fade, Lu Ming spoke indifferently: "My advice is that you don't waste your ghost hand's supernatural power on me. All your so-called tests are useless."

Yang Jian frowned and asked, "What do you mean?"

His current condition is very stable, so using the Ghost Domain to travel wouldn't be a waste.

Why did Lu Ming advise himself not to waste his supernatural abilities?
"After the Ghost Hand merges with the coffin nail, it can indeed have three suppression slots... However, you'd better not try to suppress me with the Ghost Hand, or even the Mummified Bride, otherwise you may permanently lose one or even two slots."

Upon hearing this, Yang Jian's eyelids twitched.

In fact, he had a vague sense of the problem before Lu Ming even spoke.

After the Ghost Hand merges with the coffin nail, it does not possess the characteristics of a true ghost messenger.

This kind of suppressed quota is not absolute.

For extremely terrifying ghosts, one, two, or even three slots might not be enough.

Moreover, with frequent use of the suppression ability, the suppression effect of the Ghost Hand will gradually weaken until it eventually becomes ineffective.

Lu Ming wasn't exaggerating; he was genuinely trying to persuade himself.

Yang Jian had a premonition that if he tried to suppress the mummified bride's supernatural power with the Ghost Hand, something terrible would happen, and the Ghost Hand's suppressive effect would be completely destroyed. Lu Ming took the initiative to warn him, not out of fear of Yang Jian, but because Lu Ming had accepted Yang Jian's request for peace and offered him a chance for peaceful coexistence.

Yang Jian was certainly not the kind of clueless naiveté who knew nothing.

If you're given a way out and you still refuse, then you're being too stubborn.

Having figured this out, Yang Jian completely abandoned his idea of ​​testing Lu Ming and said, "Lu Ming, it seems that your mental state is indeed in very good condition... However, I still have to remind you that there is definitely an extremely powerful Ghost Master behind the headquarters. Even for your own sake, don't do anything reckless."

Lu Ming shook his head and said, "Don't worry, I'm just here to settle some scores. It won't do me any good to mess up the situation in China."

After a moment's thought, Yang Jian said, "I owed you a favor last time, and this time I'm grateful to you for giving me the Ghost Candle from headquarters for free. If there's anything you can help me with, just let me know."

"There are indeed two things, concerning specific details. I will come to you after this incident is over."

With that, Lu Ming waved his hand, and the sound of surging water sent Yang Jian out of this supernatural space.

···········
After leaving the ghost realm, Yang Jian found himself in a bustling urban area.

It should be a street in J City, quite a distance from the headquarters where the meeting was held.

Recalling the scene of facing Lu Ming in the Ghost Realm, Yang Jian frowned.

This terrifying sense of oppression is like facing a real vengeful ghost, or even a ghost with intelligence like a wish-granting ghost.

It must be said that if you treat Lu Ming as a ghost tamer on the front line, it does give you a great sense of security, just like when you are dealing with ghost messengers at the training base.

But once you face him, most ghost tamers will feel utter despair.

"It seems there was a problem with the decision-making at headquarters."

“People like Lu Ming are only suitable as friends, not enemies. He has grown too fast and has his own schemes. Suppressing him is ineffective. The only way to win him over is to sincerely win him over and make him one of your own. That is the most beneficial approach.”

···········
the other side.

Within the realm of ghosts.

After seeing Yang Jian off, Lu Ming turned his attention back to the conference room at the headquarters.

Just as Yang Jian had predicted, Lu Ming did not fight him, simply because Lu Ming felt it was a waste to use Ghost Hand's suppression slot on him.

As it turns out, Yang Jian was indeed not a fool; he could clearly distinguish the situation and knew how to adapt.

Without saying a word, they abandoned the idea of ​​taking action.

Both of them knew very well that Yang Jian was unable to use the Ghost Hand due to its suppression, and his Ghost Eye was obscured by the blood-stained old newspaper.

Even if Lu Ming didn't use the ghost-summoning supernatural power of the dried corpse bride, Yang Jian wouldn't be able to withstand such a supernatural attack just by relying on ghostly cries and laughter.

Sensing the panicked expressions of the ghost tamers and the headquarters executives in the conference room, Lu Ming grinned.

"Of all the ghost tamers at headquarters, only a handful are truly capable. What a waste of so many resources..."

"The so-called accumulation of resources will only result in a waste like Jiang Shangbai in the end."

Lu Ming did not linger hundreds of miles away.

He took the mummified bride's hand and, using the puddles as a medium, stepped into the water together.

The world seemed to spin upside down, changing in an instant; the hotel's cramped room became the base's conference room.

The real terror has now truly arrived.

　Released ahead of schedule today.
