The Ghost Shadow covering the ground is slowly receding at this mont, and countless diums are disappearing before Yang Jian's eyes.

He knows that the terrifying murderer is hidden among these countless diums.

But after the recent supernatural confrontation, Yang Jian understands that this murderer is not soone like those he encountered before; this is a top-notch ghost handler, very powerful, and even ordinary captains encountering such a person would be killed.

As Gao Ming, who was the person in charge, was killed by such a person, it truly wasn't in vain.

As the Ghost Shadow recedes.

All the diums disappear from sight.

Although Yang Jian identified the murderer, he couldn't kill him, and this action had to be forcibly halted.

"I can't kill him, as guessed before, being able to kill a person in charge under the headquarters' nose indicates he is indeed not simple. Fortunately, this ti it was just through the dium; if it was a face-to-face fight, who knows what would have happened."

He slowly withdrew his gaze, looking at the peculiar bloodstain on the Firewood Knife.

This is the only evidence of the confrontation earlier.

"If it was really face-to-face, even if we all made a move together, it wouldn't be certain we could kill him." Li Jun said.

Yang Jian shook his head and said: "You're overthinking it, you should know the situation in the supernatural circle. Sotis numbers don't provide an advantage; against such a top-notch ghost handler, numbers would only be a burden. Once he finds a flaw and takes out one of us first, we'll lose even worse."

"And judging from the situation of my confrontation with him just now, the possibility of us being taken down is very, very high."

Ah Hong said: "Isn't there any other way? Like placing a curse on him or sothing."

"What kind of curse can kill such a person?"

Yang Jian asked rhetorically: "From his decisive action, it's obvious he's been a ghost handler for a long ti, not a newcor. And a ghost handler who's lived for a long ti without dying is, to a large extent, already an anomaly."

"Once one becos an anomaly, it's not easy to die."

However, speaking of curses, he still had the Eight-Tone Music Box curse in his hand, but truly facing off directly and releasing the Eight-Tone Music Box curse on the opponent would be quite an extre action.

Because during the curse, the Eight-Tone Music Box would provide supernatural protection, and only after this period ends can the cursed person be killed.

But what if the Eight-Tone Music Box curse also fails to kill the opponent?

Wouldn't this be digging a hole for himself?

"Yang Jian, if the opponent is really that terrifying, he certainly wouldn't hide his whereabouts or even kill Gao Ming to silence him. He must have a weakness, otherwise, he would have boldly appeared before us long ago, so that murderer is not invincible, we can definitely solve it." Li Jun said seriously.

Yang Jian said: "Your words make so sense, the opponent must be wary of sothing if he's hiding his whereabouts, but I think he's not wary of us. Just now when I triggered the dium, the murderer tried to kill without hesitation, if it wasn't for being sowhat special, my fate might have been like Gao Ming's."

"And in this city, what do you think could make a person like him apprehensive?"

Ah Hong said: "He's purposefully approaching the ghost painting, so he certainly isn't afraid of it, nor is he afraid of the headquarters' captains. The only thing he'd be wary of could only be..."

As she spoke, she looked in the direction of the headquarters.

In the headquarters, the only person the murderer might care about is that old man.

"That's right, it's Old Qin, that person is wary of Old Qin."

Yang Jian said expressionlessly: "Perhaps he already knows Old Qin hasn't shown up for a long ti, that's why he dared to co here. Killing Gao Ming might not just be a coincidence, maybe even a test."

Hearing this, Li Jun quickly interrupted him, speaking in a low voice: "What if discussing this stuff here causes a leak? It's better not to talk about it."

"If we could be eavesdropped on while standing here, then do you think the headquarters has any secrets left?" Yang Jian retorted.

Li Jun was at a loss for words.

Yang Jian continued: "The opponent dares to act like this, surely knowing clearly that there's an issue with Old Qin, but still showing signs of apprehension, which indicates this person has gathered almost all the information on Old Qin's current situation, just not daring to go too far, lest Old Qin wakes up and drags him down with him."

"Wang Xiaoming's Enforcent Captain plan is indeed correct; without a significant person to hold down the headquarters, all kinds of cowards and crooks have sprung up."

"It's just that to fully replace the role Old Qin played before, currently, there's no one in the headquarters who can do it."

Ah Hong said: "Not even you?"

"?"

Yang Jian's eyes flickered: "That depends on whether I can successfully kill him when facing this murderer head-on. If I can't, I don't have the qualifications either."

He didn't know if using all his supernatural powers would lead to victory.

This matter can't be assessed until after the fight.

"Li Jun, I've already done enough for you today, so let's stop here. I suggest putting Gao Ming's matter on hold for now. The murderer is not simple; if you continue to investigate recklessly, perhaps more people will die." Yang Jian said.

"I am already dead, it doesn't matter; as long as we can catch the murderer and bring him to justice, that's enough." Li Jun said seriously.

Yang Jian said: "You might not be afraid to die, but do you think the opponent will spare Ah Hong, who has always been by your side, when he makes a move? And knowing the opponent is targeting the ghost painting, if you die, then the ghost painting will completely lose control, can you bear this consequence?"

Li Jun fell silent imdiately; he understood the danger of the ghost painting, it absolutely should not get out of control.

"This level of supernatural power is no longer a small matter; if handled improperly, it could be a huge disaster. And now, with the captains not all gathered, if such a disaster occurs, who do you think is willing to clean up the ss?" Yang Jian said.

"The tis are different now. The old style of doing things has been phased out. If the other party is really strong enough, not to ntion they killed Gao Ming, even if they wiped out the headquarters in one fell swoop, I could only stand by helplessly."

At this point, Yang Jian didn't continue: "I have other things to attend to, so I won't stay here any longer."

Li Jun remained silent the whole ti, keeping quiet for a long while.

It wasn't until Yang Jian left that Ah Hong spoke, "Yang Jian is right; the killer is not an ordinary person. Even if we find him, we don't have enough power to take him down. We witnessed Yang Jian's confrontation with the killer, so this matter needs to be discussed back at headquarters."

"You're right, this is indeed not a simple matter and requires careful planning."

Li Jun cald down, suppressing his inner impulse and agitation.

"Although the identity of the killer hasn't been confird this ti, we have at least found the killer. Let's handle Gao Ming's body and then return to headquarters," Ah Hong said.

Li Jun nodded.

While the two were dealing with Gao Ming's body, Yang Jian had already left the city.

However, he didn't go far but arrived in a small county nearby.

The small county was not bustling, quite ordinary, like countless other counties in the country.

Although Yang Jian had never been here before, he appeared purposefully under a residential building in the county.

Entering the corridor and up the stairs, Yang Jian arrived on the third floor of this residential building.

Just arrived.

The door of an apartnt was already open.

Standing at the door was a woman with a sweet appearance, gentle and courteous, a professional preschool teacher.

Her na is Liu Siyue.

A person who had died in Dachuan City, but with the help of Yang Jian's supernatural power, was resurrected. Her current task is to care for Zhao Kaiming's daughter, Zhao Xiaoya.

Liu Siyue was not surprised to see Yang Jian appear at her door.

There is a perception of the supernatural.

Especially between her and Yang Jian.

"Mister Yang, you're here," Liu Siyue greeted respectfully and politely, her voice exceptionally gentle.

Yang Jian didn't speak, just walked straight into the room.

The not-so-big room was tidy and clean; he glanced casually, then sat on the sofa and asked, "How has she been doing?"

"She" refers to Zhao Xiaoya.

"Under my tutelage, Xiao Ya has beco much more normal than before, but there are still so personality defects that need ti to gradually correct."

Liu Siyue said, while briefly updating the recent status of Zhao Xiaoya.

Yang Jian nodded: "As long as she's fine. I just ca by to check the situation this ti. The issue with that ghost doesn't need to be a concern for now; it's trapped and can't return to Zhao Xiaoya's side."

"I already guessed that, otherwise I'd be dead by now. She had a strong resentnt towards initially, wanting to kill ."

Liu Siyue said apprehensively.

"You can revive even if you die, what are you afraid of?" Yang Jian glanced over and said.

Liu Siyue chuckled, "That's true."

But she doesn't want to die, especially knowing she has died once before; she particularly wants to live.

After all, who knows who will be resurrected next ti, whether it's Liu Siyue or another woman?

"Find so ti in the next few days and take Zhao Xiaoya to Dachang City, don't stay here any longer. It's no longer safe outside; you need to relocate." Yang Jian said.

"I understand, I'll take Zhao Xiaoya and catch a flight out of here tonight," Liu Siyue imdiately nodded.

Facing this newly settled ho, she abandoned it without hesitation.

"Good."

Yang Jian said, "If you can continue to take good care of Zhao Xiaoya, I will let you live on, which is no different from a real resurrection for you."

"I understand, I will do my best," Liu Siyue said.

Yang Jian said no more, after arranging this small matter, he got up and left again.

Liu Siyue wanted to have him stay for a al, but he declined.

Because Yang Jian had other matters to attend to.
