268 Possessed Zhao Kaiming
The Ghost Domain was forcibly intruded upon; this wasn’t the first time.
He had encountered it several times before.
Since the Ghost Domain is merely an extension of a malevolent spirit’s power, under ordinary circumstances, it is undisturbable, nearly an unsolvable existence.
But it’s different for ghosts.
Ghosts with a high Terror Level can easily step into another ghost’s Ghost Domain.
It’s like a pure suppression based on level.
Although Yang Jian had only opened a single ghost eye and maintained a Ghost Domain within a ten-meter radius, having it intruded upon so brazenly was somewhat humiliating.
At the bathroom entrance, a person of medium height stood ramrod straight, staring expressionlessly at Yang Jian who was turning to look back.
“It’s you~!”
Yang Jian’s expression tensed as he saw that the person who had suddenly barged into his Ghost Domain was none other than Zhao Kaiming.
His phone had just sent a message warning him to be wary of this guy.
“I thought it was that thing coming back, but it turns out to be you; you shouldn’t be here.”
Zhao Kaiming spoke, his tone very stiff and his demeanor cold, different from his previously slightly crazed manner.
“The person who should be saying that is me. You’ve shown up in a place you shouldn’t have, and furthermore… you’re still alive. No, that’s not right; something’s off about you, you’re not Zhao Kaiming.”
Yang Jian suddenly furrowed his brows and became alert; “Zhao Kaiming doesn’t have the ability to walk into my Ghost Domain.”
“My current state is quite bad, that ghost is inside me; this is the last step,” Zhao Kaiming slowly raised his hand to look at it; “Although it can’t quite be called controlling it, it’s more like a reluctant cooperation, but this feeling is terrifying.”
“Are you in the midst of resurrection?” asked Yang Jian.
“No, unlike most ghost masters, I am a very normal person, with a normal body, living normally. Maybe I am the only exception in the world, not controlling a ghost, yet able to be a ghost master,” Zhao Kaiming slowly walked over.
The Ghost Domain couldn’t put distance between him and Yang Jian.
There seemed to be some terrifying oddity attached to his body, one that could even suppress the Ghost Domain.
Yang Jian did not speak, but became even more vigilant.
Zhao Kaiming said, “I thought you were already dead; you should have died, your existence might interfere with my plans going forward.”
“Have you always been curious about what I’ve been doing lately? I couldn’t talk about it before, but now I can. I want to resurrect the ghost in my body.”
“Do ghosts need resurrection?” Yang Jian asked coldly.
Ghosts can’t really die, so how could they need resurrection?
Zhao Kaiming said, “Do they not need it? Be it Ghost Eyes, Ghost Blood, funeral clothes, or Ghost Shadows… Haven’t you ever doubted these things? Ghost masters can only control a part of a ghost; these things are like they’ve been deliberately scattered, limiting a complete form of a ghost to its weakest. No, perhaps not just one complete ghost, but many.”
“Ghost masters are like holding a piece of a jigsaw puzzle; if these pieces were to come together, what would they form in the end? Are these puzzles interchangeable, capable of achieving a result as long as they’re all collected?”
“It’s hard to imagine, isn’t it? I didn’t realize this at first either; it’s all been told to me by this thing.” He pointed to his head.
“The Ghost Infant in Dachang City was the result of my deliberate indulgence; I could have resolved it long ago, but that thing told me to wait, to keep waiting… Now, I think I understand what it means, it needs a perfect puzzle, and the Ghost Infant is just a tool for collecting those pieces.”
“So it was you who killed Ye Feng and He Chuan?” Although Yang Jian’s expression remained calm.
His heart was greatly shocked.
A ghost that could influence Zhao Kaiming’s thoughts seemed to have given him tasks to help it achieve.
And that task was to nurture the Ghost Infant, let it grow, and ultimately seize a completely formed Ghost Infant through some means.
With this in mind, he immediately thought of his own piece of human skin paper.
The unseen ghost beside Zhao Kaiming and the human skin paper seemed to be of a similar nature.
His long-standing wariness toward the human skin paper hadn’t been misplaced; that thing was terribly frightening.
Zhao Kaiming continued to approach: “Ghosts also need clothes to wear. Ye Feng’s garment was quite good, and although He Chuan’s ghost wasn’t much, it helped make up the numbers. If I could add your pair of Ghost Eyes, that would be even better.”
“So you want to kill me?” Yang Jian said.
“It’s not me who wants to kill you, it’s it that wants to kill you. I’m just lending it a little help. Although it seemed to be very wary of you before, now it seems not to be wary anymore,” Zhao Kaiming pointed to his head and said.
Wary?
Yang Jian was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized what it meant.
What it was wary of was likely not him but that piece of human skin paper.
Unseen to him, that human skin paper had become his talisman.
But the human skin paper was not well-intentioned either; it was also using him and planning something.
However, before he could think further.
The next moment, Zhao Kaiming suddenly charged over, his speed freakishly startling, his numb, cold face, devoid of emotion, coming right up to Yang Jian’s.
An ice-cold hand directly gripped Yang Jian’s throat.
The strength was unbelievably great, like a frenzied person squeezing out all their body’s potential.
Zhao Kaiming immediately opened his mouth.
