Mysterious Revival

Afternoon.

Dachang City had deployed an operation plan to capture Wang Xiaoqiang and Ye Feng.

After pulling up the city's surveillance cameras, Wang Xiaoqiang's location was immediately confirmed.

He was still inside the Xiaoqiang Entertainment Club, and he hadn't left since entering the club yesterday. Unless he could vanish into thin air, he was definitely inside.

As for Ye Feng.

That guy had sensed some danger and was hiding in an old district.

The exact location was unknown, but it was believed that a thorough search would make it easy to find him.

"Let's handle Wang Xiaoqiang first, Ye Feng must be put aside for now," Yang Jian also had his own considerations.

First the easy task, then the difficult one.

To eliminate the more vulnerable Wang Xiaoqiang first, and then figure out how to deal with Ye Feng was in line with the current situation.

Moreover, it wasn't just Yang Jian acting alone this time; Zhao Kaiming and Sun Yi would be providing support. This was a clear arrangement from above, and had to be followed.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

A bit ironic.

Yang Jian and Zhao Kaiming, who had grievances against each other, actually had to cooperate under these circumstances.

"Zhao Kaiming will at most clock in and show his face, absolutely no effort expected from him, and that Sun Yi... his ability is unclear, but from previous conversations, he seems to be a rather poor Talisman, not much to hope for there, so this time I still have to rely on myself," Yang Jian thought quietly.

It was precisely because Zhao Kaiming was involved that he did not dare to confront Ye Feng directly.

If that guy were to stab him in the back, he would be finished.

The law couldn't contain that vicious person.

After all the preparations were in place, the operation began at 1:20 p.m.

Yang Jian was slightly delayed because he had gone back to get some things.

By the time he arrived at the mansion outside the Xiaoqiang Entertainment Club, the area had already been completely sealed off and surrounded.

To ensure a foolproof operation, nearly a hundred special forces personnel had been deployed.

When Yang Jian got out of the car, the crowd had already been dispersed.

"Yang Jian, all preparations are complete, the suspect Wang Xiaoqiang's location has been confirmed on the third floor of that building in front. We're ready to take action at any time," the police chief from the Eastern City District came over and said gravely.

"You don't need to take action, just enclose the area," Yang Jian said. "Leave the rest to me. Wang Xiaoqiang is a special case, and ordinary firearms won't work against him, unless you're using weapons of mass destruction."

"This matter is of great importance, and there are strict orders from above. If the operation fails, someone must be held responsible. Don't be too stubborn," the chief warned.

Yang Jian said, "As long as you don't shirk your duties, there's no way the operation will fail. Where are Zhao Kaiming and Sun Yi?"

"Over there," the chief gestured.

Yang Jian said, "Let them secure the left and right sides. I'll go in alone."

"It may be inconvenient for you to act alone. I'll get a team to support you," said the Eastern City District chief.

"No need, just let them stay on guard outside," Yang Jian said after a moment's thought.

Seeing Yang Jian's determination, the chief did not insist any further. Although he was in charge of deploying the operation, he still had to respect Yang Jian's opinion on the details, especially as Yang Jian was now the head of Dachang City.

"You really plan to go in alone and kill Wang Xiaoqiang?" As Yang Jian walked towards the club's main gate, Zhao Kaiming, who was guarding the entrance, sneered, "If you kill him, how will you explain it to Wang Xiaoming?"

"Professor Bruce Pi's influence is bigger than you think," Yang Jian said indifferently. "If he doesn't die, how will Wang Xiaoming explain it to me? But isn't this the outcome you'd be happy to see?"

"That's true, but if you really kill his brother today, Wang Xiaoming will go after you, and then you'll truly be finished," Zhao Kaiming said.

"Even if I were to die, I would certainly go after you. What do you think?" said Yang Jian.

Zhao Kaiming naturally understood the implications of Yang Jian's words, and he continued, "Aren't you curious why I want to kill you? Do you think it's just because you and I are vying for a position? I'm not a local, the position of head of Dachang City doesn't matter much to me, if I can't get it here, I can still get it in another city."

"If it's not for the position of head, then what is it for?" Yang Jian asked.

"You'll know when you're dying," Zhao Kaiming replied.

Yang Jian said, "Then I think under the circumstances that you're still alive, you should speak sooner rather than later, otherwise you may not have the chance to speak."

Zhao Kaiming sneered without a word.

Yang Jian paid no attention to the man.

Now was not the time to deal with this guy. After becoming an international Ghost Domain master, killing this Zhao Kaiming would require a very opportune moment or some rather special methods.

At this moment.

On the third floor of the club.

Wang Xiaoqiang was lying on the ground, seemingly fallen asleep, surrounded by bottles of all kinds of alcohol, and the entire lobby was filled with a strong smell of liquor.

It seemed that he had spent the previous night in a drunken stupor.

But he was not drunk.

After becoming a ghost master, he had lost a lot of things, he no longer felt hunger or cold, and was even less likely to get drunk.

A ghost resided in his body, whatever he ate was fed to the ghost inside.

How could he possibly get drunk.

At this moment, most of the security guards, waiters, and lobby managers in and around the Xiaoqiang Entertainment Club had been taken control of; only a few had slipped through the net.

"Boss, the situation is bad, we're completely surrounded, there's people everywhere outside."

A security guard and several waiters rushed over in a hurry. When they saw Wang Xiaoqiang lying on the ground, seemingly drunk and asleep, the security guard hurried over and tried to wake him up.

As soon as his hand touched Wang Xiaoqiang's body, the security guard was startled.

At that moment, Wang Xiaoqiang's body was ice-cold and stiff, with no heartbeat at all, as if he had died the night before.

"Ah... dead, he's dead."

However, before the security guard could finish his sentence, Wang Xiaoqiang suddenly opened his eyes, his body moved in an abnormal manner, and he sat up from the ground.

It was as if a dead man had suddenly come back to life.

Hearing the security guard's words, Wang Xiaoqiang immediately turned over and looked out the window.

Indeed.

The entire estate outside was filled with fully prepared personnel; the whole club was thoroughly surrounded.

"Boss, what do we do now?" The remaining people panicked.

Wang Xiaoqiang's expression changed. He was very aware of the current situation; what he feared yesterday had become reality. Yang Jian had indeed started to act, and this time he didn't intend to come alone to deal with him. Instead, he used the power of the Ghost Domain master to turn this private grudge into a criminal case.

Escape~!

Almost instinctively, this word flashed through his mind.

But immediately after, he hesitated again.

Where could he flee to?

As soon as he showed his face, he would be wanted throughout Dachang City, and it would be the same if he ran to another city.

At this time, a waiter's phone suddenly rang.

"Hello~!" The waiter hurriedly answered the call.

"Pass the phone to Wang Xiaoqiang." The voice of Wang Xiaoming came through the phone.

"Boss, it's for you."

Wang Xiaoqiang's complexion changed, and after a moment's hesitation, he took the phone.

"You see what's happening outside the club? Right now, there are a hundred special forces personnel outside with live ammunition aimed at you. The nearby roads have been blockaded and put under martial law. In addition to that, Zhao Kaiming, as well as the assessor Sun Yi sent from above, are among them, ready to provide support at any moment,"

"You're currently facing three Ghost Domain controllers, as well as the entire force of Dachang City."

It seemed Wang Xiaoming was on a helicopter. His voice was noisy over the phone, "If you want to live, listen to my orders. There should be several sports cars parked downstairs. Start driving and charge straight through the main entrance. As long as you're fast enough, I'll pick you up on the expressway bypassing the city after you've made it out."

"As long as you can get to me, I can save you. That's all, Yang Jian is already on his way up."

As soon as he finished speaking, the phone immediately hung up.

"Damn it." Wang Xiaoqiang gritted his teeth, struggling internally for a moment.

Ultimately, the desire to survive overcame his resentment toward his older brother, Wang Xiaoming.

"Anyone who doesn't want to die, take the elevator downstairs and surrender. You're too late, and getting shot on the spot is not my fault," he growled lowly.

The others were stupefied for a moment, then suddenly panicked and scrambled towards the exit.

At that moment, Wang Xiaoqiang directly opened the window on the third floor and found a spot that wasn't easily visible to jump down from.

"Ding-dong~!"

The elevator door on the third floor opened.

Yang Jian stood inside the elevator with a golden baton in hand.

However, as soon as the elevator door opened, he saw three to five people rush in, frantic with fear.

"Dachang City's international Ghost Domain controller, Yang Jian. If you don't want to die, put your hands on your head and squat down," he said sternly, immediately commanding.

The terrified crowd hurriedly crouched down with their hands over their heads.

"Where's Wang Xiaoqiang?" Yang Jian asked.

"Inside," a trembling waiter said.

Yang Jian's gaze sharpened, "Buying time? So, he's trying to escape?"

When he reached the third-floor lobby, he heard the roaring engine of a sports car, then he saw a blue sports car speed out from below, heading straight for the door.

The distance was quickly expanding.

It had exceeded the coverage of his Ghost Domain.

"What gave you the hope to escape?" he stood by the window, frowning as he looked at the barricades set up at the entrance.

To Yang Jian, this escape seemed pointless.

Even if you could get out of here, could you really escape Dachang City? Could you leave the country?

"It's Wang Xiaoqiang."

Sun Yi and Zhao Kaiming, who were guarding the junctions on either side, immediately noticed the person sitting in the sports car.

With a crazed grimace on his face, Wang Xiaoqiang paid no heed to the roadblocks at the main entrance, pressed down hard on the accelerator, and increased his speed drastically.

"Where does he think he's going?"

Walking forward symbolically a few steps with his cane and prosthetic leg, Zhao Kaiming pretended to show an attitude of chasing after the criminal.

"Holy shit, a sports car? How rich is Wang Xiaoqiang?" Sun Yi exclaimed in surprise at that moment.

"Quick, move aside, watch out, and dodge!" a captain at the entrance urgently shouted.

The crowd dispersed.

The barricade was instantly broken through as Wang Xiaoqiang's sports car executed a sharp drift turn and then sped straight northward along the avenue.

"Attention, attention, the criminal is escaping from south to north in a blue sports car; all units at the intersection must intercept," the chief in charge of the command roared immediately.

He felt disgraced at this moment.

Such a well-organized police operation had been forcefully breached by the criminal.

"Hey, Yang Jian, stop hanging around inside; Wang Xiaoqiang has fled. Did you see him?" Sun Yi notified him through an international ghost hunter's satellite positioning phone.

Standing in front of the third-floor window, Yang Jian watched the sports car race away, his expression calm as he said, "I know, he won't get far."

"Don't talk like that; he's in a sports car and has accelerated to over two hundred miles per hour. Our cars can't catch up," Sun Yi said. "Why don't you buy a sports car too? Give me a thrill ride while you're at it, I've never been in one in my life."

"I told you, he cannot escape," Yang Jian said indifferently, his body gradually emitting a red glow, and the ghost eye on his forehead instantly opened.

A beam of red light appeared from within the club as if shone by a powerful flashlight.

The next moment, Yang Jian appeared at the entrance.

"Hm?"

Others nearby were startled by Yang Jian's sudden appearance.

If it weren't broad daylight, one might think it was a haunting.

"Ghost Domain, huh?" Zhao Kaiming looked at the red light emanating from Yang Jian and his now-open ghost eye, certain that this guy was getting serious.

Sparing no expense in using the power of vengeful spirits.

Yang Jian looked northward along the wide road.

By now, Wang Xiaoqiang's car had vanished into the distance, no longer visible to the naked eye.

Probably, the most worthwhile expenditure in Wang Xiaoqiang's life was this sports car worth millions.

"His escape is very purposeful; he would rather turn around just to flee north. There's only one possibility in such a case... someone is there to pick him up," said Yang Jian. "And with Wang Xiaoqiang's situation, having become a fugitive, the only person I can see willing to help him escape is one man."

Professor Bruce Pi.

That is, Wang Xiaoqiang's brother, Wang Xiaoming.

"We must intercept him before he leaves the city; we can't let Wang Xiaoming get him."

Once Wang Xiaoming got hold of him, the situation would become quite complicated. With Wang Xiaoming's status and identity, protecting his brother should not pose any challenge.

Immediately, a cold murderous intent flashed in Yang Jian's eyes, and the surrounding Ghost Domain no longer covered everything in all directions but purposefully formed a narrow path solely for one person to traverse, extending straight ahead.

He had thought about it a lot yesterday.

About another way to use the Ghost Domain.

It was Wang Xiaoqiang's gaunt finger that had inspired him.

The range of the Ghost Domain is fixed, but by changing its shape, one can extend the distance.

If covering the surroundings, Yang Jian could only extend it up to thirty meters at most.

But if it covers just a path, Yang Jian's Ghost Domain can stretch forward at least three hundred meters.

In his mind, he calculated that this was approximately correct.

In other words, he could cover a distance of three hundred meters in the blink of an eye.

If it weren't for the fact that the guy was driving a top-tier sports car, Yang Jian felt it wouldn't be an issue even if he let him have a 299-meter head start.

Immediately, he vanished on the spot.

The next moment, he appeared at the end of the red glow, a position three hundred meters away.

Then the Ghost Domain covered the area again, and Yang Jian disappeared from the spot once more.
