Zhutian Panlong: They've all become gods, and they're only just joining the chat group.

With this interruption, Ye Zhen stopped mentioning seeing Professor Wang out and tacitly allowed him to stay.

Zhang Wei clutched the gold box containing the parchment like a precious treasure, as if afraid someone would steal it.

Being watched by three people was putting him under a lot of pressure. He was thinking about when Yang Jian would be back, and he was about to reach his limit.

Especially that Professor Wang, his gaze was so aggressive, it always felt like he was about to shoot at me the next second.

The scene fell silent for a moment, while the others wanted Richard and Ye Zhen to escort them out.

But since Professor Wang doesn't want to go out, they naturally won't specifically send people out anymore. If Professor Wang were to go out, they could at least take these people with them.

Now, let's just wait here.

Anyway, Yang Jian will be able to imprison the starving ghost and resolve this incident in the end, so it's the same when he gets out.

Not long after, Richard suddenly turned his head to face the door.

"Stop playing, Yang Jian is online," he said to Ye Zhen, who had somehow gone off to play games with Zhang Wei.

"Uh, is Xiao Yang all set?" Ye Zhen scratched his head.

Richard never expected that he and Yang Jian would have such a coincidence, just in time for Yang Jian to come online.

There was a knock on the door.

Keen perception. Wang Xiaoming silently added a label to Richard in his mind.

Both times, Richard was the first to sense the situation. This shows that his perception is indeed very sharp, and perhaps his supernatural abilities are related to this.

Seeing that the two men showed no intention of opening the door, Wang Xiaoming gestured to the person next to him to open it.

Outside the door stood a young man with a slightly immature face.

He was somewhat surprised to see Ye Zhen and Richard when he opened the door; he hadn't expected there to be outsiders present.

Then came vigilance.

There was no way around it; the people Yang Jian had encountered along the way were not simple-minded individuals.

Very few people have any goodwill towards him.

This forces Yang Jian, a high school student, to mature, otherwise he might unknowingly fall into a trap.

Putting everything else aside, just consider the kind of people he has encountered since becoming a ghost tamer.

Wang Xiaoqiang's club, those people want to steal the ghost that he and Yan Li finally managed to capture.

Zhao Kaiming, the newly appointed criminal police officer in Dachang City, is a complete scoundrel. From the moment he arrived, he acted arrogantly and wanted Yang Jian to be his dog.

In the Huanggang Village ghost messenger incident, he betrayed his headquarters personnel in terms of intelligence.

Given this situation, how could Yang Jian not be vigilant and take appropriate measures?

That's why Yang Jian decisively refused when Wang Xiaoming asked to borrow the human skin paper from him for research.

Because things didn't start well, and because he'd been tricked before, Yang Jian harbored resentment towards headquarters from the very beginning. Naturally, he no longer trusted Wang Xiaoming.

Once trust is broken, it is very difficult to rebuild a trusting relationship.

Ye Zhen didn't take Yang Jian's wariness to heart.

He said to Yang Jian, "Hello, Little Yang, I am Ye Tiandi from a certain paranormal forum."

Mr. Ye is optimistic about your growth potential and hopes you can grow as quickly as possible.

"Fight me soon."

Yang Jian was surprised. "You're Ye Zhen from the paranormal forum? Asia's number one ghost tamer?"

I never expected it to be Ye Zhen! And I never expected Ye Zhen to have this kind of personality?

How should I put it? A bit like a teenager going through a rebellious phase.

However, if this person really is Ye Zhen, then this crisis can be averted.

His eyes lit up, and he didn't bother to wonder why Ye Zhen was here.

He wasn't confident he could handle the ghost baby that had swept through the entire city of Dachang.

Even though he has now been put in a life-or-death situation and has become an outlier in the first place.

As long as you don't overuse your supernatural abilities, there will be no longer any risk of vengeful ghosts resurrecting.

However, they were still not very confident in dealing with that thing. If they could have the help of a strong person like Ye Zhen, the chances of solving the problem would be much greater.

Wang Xiaoming observed his performance and said, "Don't get your hopes up. Ye Zhen won't help solve the problem of the starving ghost."

We still can only rely on you to solve this now.

"What?" Yang Jian was a little confused.

"Why would he come here if he's not going to help?"

At this moment, Yang Jian just wanted to curse.

He really wanted to quit and tell them to go find whoever they wanted.

But no, this is Dachang City, the city where he has lived for more than ten years since he was a child.

He didn't want to see it become a dead city.

"Headquarters paid me to protect Professor Wang, but they didn't pay me to resolve this incident. So you know what I mean."

Ye Zhen shrugged.

No, I don't want to understand. Yang Jian really wanted to say that.

That lousy headquarters is still resorting to these underhanded tactics at a time like this.

They want people to work incredibly hard, but they're unwilling to offer any benefits. They're always thinking about getting something for nothing.

If this weren't Dachang City, Yang Jian wouldn't be risking his life for headquarters.

Alright, I guess I'll have to rely on myself.

He calmly accepted the box that Zhang Wei handed him.

To resolve this incident, we'll have to rely on the human skin paper. Although this wretched thing is always trying to trick him, it doesn't lie; it just hides traps within the truth.

Sometimes, telling the whole truth is more dangerous than lying, and it's almost impossible to expose someone who doesn't tell the whole story.

Everyone noticed their little actions, but no one called them out on it.

Isn't it just a piece of human skin paper?

Richard had already started studying this thing when he arrived.

In any case, the golden box outside could only block supernatural forces, while Richard's mental power could penetrate it without restraint and study the human skin paper inside.

Unfortunately, this thing was also very perceptive, and after sensing his spying, it kept playing dead.

If you really want to study it, the best option is to directly master it.

But Yang Jian is watching him closely in the future, and he's ready to attack him at any time if Yang Jian dares to take another step forward.

Richard suddenly realized that teasing the future Yang Jian like this was actually quite nice; this kind of eye contact across timelines was also helpful for his research on the laws of time.

The laws of spacetime are very active in this world. The laws of death and the netherworld are manifest, and all sorts of strange entities with aggregates of laws are running around everywhere. It is a good place to comprehend the laws.

Richard has decided to stay in this world a little longer.

At this moment, if Yang Jian were to open the human skin paper, he would find that the writing on it had changed to:

I am Yang Jian from ten years in the future. By the time you read this, I will already be dead. Please, do not hand me over to that person; he is not human...

Unfortunately, the paper was sealed in the box, and no one saw the words.

The writing disappeared not long afterward.

Yang Jian left alone not long after, as he needed to find time to have someone write on a parchment to provide him with a solution for dealing with the starving ghosts.

With so many people around, it wasn't convenient to expose his human skin. He had no choice but to leave first.

Since these people won't help him anyway, there's no point in him staying here.

"You all think highly of him, so why aren't you willing to offer him any help?" Professor Wang asked.

"Does having faith in him mean we have to provide him with help?"

"Because he is someone we have high hopes for, we believe he can handle this on his own even without our help," Ye Zhen said.
