Chương 74: The Wang Family Old House

More than half a month later, Richard finally sorted out his gains from the previous period.

Unfortunately, despite all these strange features, none of them can be restarted, not even a single-unit restart.

Of course, Richard also felt that he was being a bit too greedy. How precious was the ability to restart the strange phenomenon, and he had encountered it so easily?

Although he didn't encounter it this time, he knew there was a supernatural item related to time, and it had nothing to do with Yang Jian, so it wouldn't attract Yang Jian's attention in the future.

That's the Wang family's old residence, where time can be restarted indefinitely. It must be where the Wang family imprisoned vengeful ghosts for generations.

But it was taken over by a group of outside ghost tamers a long time ago.

This group of people survived by relying on the power of rebooting.

Even if they die, the men will be resurrected in the next reboot.

For ghost tamers who live in constant fear of the resurgence of evil spirits, the Wang family's old residence is indeed a rare and wonderful place.

Wang Chaling was just an ordinary person. Even though he possessed four vengeful ghosts from the previous two generations of the Wang family, he dared not take back his ancestral home and could only let outsiders occupy it.

Since others could take it all, Li realized he might as well keep it for himself.

Fortunately, his six puppets have been upgraded and now control many fierce ghosts. After being combined, they can all have good combat power.

We can take them out and have a go.

So he found Ye Zhen and asked, "I'm planning to visit the Wang family's old residence. Would you like to come along?"

Ye Zhen was really bored. As soon as he heard that he could go out and have fun, he pushed aside the documents in front of him and said, "Let's go."

A-Wu stared at him with a resentful look.

Ye Zhen pretended not to see it.

He was genuinely impatient with dealing with these trivial matters.

Richard seemed to see himself in the early stages of his rise to power. Back then, he was the same way, clearly disliking it but still having to personally handle all sorts of trivial matters, which delayed his cultivation.

There was nothing they could do; by the time he rose to power, the Hegel family had long since declined and had no foundation left.

He couldn't even find anyone to help with the trivial matters.

Because his strength was not strong enough at that time, and he dared not offend so many divine families and old holy families in the empire, he could only do things himself, for fear of making mistakes.

This situation only improved after he got married, since his wife came from a noble family and could help him with daily chores. He only needed to make decisions about the most important things.

Only after another Saint-level cultivator emerged from the family did he finally let go completely and devote himself to cultivation.

Ye Zhen, well, that kid's in for a rough time.

Unless the paranormal forum produces another powerful figure, at least a captain-level one, he won't be able to let go of these matters.

Ah Wu could only help him with minor matters. As for other things, especially when it involved other ghost-controlling organizations, they wouldn't give Ah Wu any face.

Ghost tamers are often arrogant, and even with Ye Zhen's reputation as Asia's number one ghost tamer, they cannot be subdued. Otherwise, the ghost tamers at headquarters wouldn't have been so defiant towards Ye Zhen last time.

He was already struggling on the brink of life and death, so his mental state was somewhat unstable.

If you want them to submit, it's simple: let your strength speak for itself. A-Wu isn't strong enough, so only Ye Zhen himself can keep things in check.

It was a day later when Ye Zhen finished arranging things at the paranormal forum and set off with Richard.

The two didn't linger and went straight to Da Dong City.

Soon, the two who had transformed into rainbows arrived in Da Dong City.

Meanwhile, Wang Chaling, the person in charge of Dadong City, had already received the message from headquarters and was waiting for the two of them.

In fact, the two were observed by intelligence personnel in various places shortly after their takeoff.

As a key target of headquarters' observation, Ye Zhen's movements are certainly being closely monitored.

After guessing the two's destination, headquarters notified Wang Chaling.

Wang Chaling has always kept a low profile, and even headquarters doesn't know the exact extent of his abilities.

They didn't even know that he wasn't a ghost tamer at all, but just an ordinary person.

He can summon supernatural abilities through his bloodline.

The Wang family were also top-tier ghost tamers during the Republic of China era. Although it's unknown whether they reached the level of the Seven Elders, they were definitely not simple characters.

He used a special curse to give the Wang family bloodline supernatural abilities, so that even when members of the Wang family die and become ghosts, they will not go out of control, but can be driven by the descendants of the Wang family.

Therefore, although Wang Chaling is not a ghost controller, he can command the strange creatures that his grandparents, parents and children transformed into after their deaths.

It's only because this guy values his life that he's not afraid of death; otherwise, he would have been a captain-level figure just by relying on those two from the first generation of the Wang family.

But his fear of death wasn't entirely wrong. The supernatural abilities of this world were indeed too strange and bizarre, and he himself was just an ordinary person, extremely vulnerable. Without protection, any supernatural event could easily kill him.

In this situation, he would need to carry at least two ghosts with him to be safe.

He had previously sent his father, who had transformed into a ghost, to the old house to investigate the situation, but the ghost got stuck in the old house and couldn't get out.

This created an awkward situation: he still had three ghosts around him, but he dared not send any more to the old house.

Because he can only command one ghost at a time, while ensuring his own safety. If that ghost gets trapped in the old house, he will truly be without any ghosts to use.

He could only watch helplessly as a group of outsiders, ghost tamers, occupied his old house and lorded it over him.

In the original storyline, this group even sent people to Dachang City to cause trouble for Yang Jian.

"Ye Zhen? What brings you to Da Dong City?" Wang Chaling asked.

Generally speaking, these officials do not like other ghost tamers coming to the cities under their jurisdiction.

Ghost tamers are inherently unstable, and once a vengeful ghost resurfaces, it becomes a paranormal event that needs to be dealt with.

This is increasing the workload for those in charge.

"Nothing else, I just wanted to visit your Wang family's old residence." Ye Zhen didn't hide anything.

In this Dadong City, they couldn't possibly hide it from Wang Chaling; he would find out sooner or later anyway.

"My old family home?" Wang Chaling remained calm, but a question arose in his mind.

These people really don't take him seriously. That's his old family home, okay? These people just come and go as they please, without any courtesy whatsoever.

"Since your old house has already been occupied by others, you might as well let us in. Maybe we can even help you drive them away," Ye Zhen said.

"You even know this?" Wang Chaling was speechless; the investigation was truly thorough. He wondered whether Ye Zhen's arrival was a good thing or a bad thing for him.

"We know even more, like your father is still missing in the old house. If we go in, we can help you look for him, and if we find him, we'll bring him out," Richard said casually.

Wang Chaling's pupils contracted. He knew about such a secret?

But they quickly realized that this was not something that could be investigated through intelligence.

Some kind of supernatural ability? He wondered to himself.

He then gave the two of them a deep look and said, "Alright, I'll allow you to go in. Do you need me to take you there?"

"Alright, let's go." Even if they didn't agree, Wang Chaling would still go with them. He wouldn't feel at ease unless he watched them go inside.
