Chapter 23: The Controlled Red and White Double Evil?

"No, a Ghost that can cut the Ghost Candle in one slash—how are we supposed to deal with it?"

Luo Suyi's complexion was extremely grim.

This kind of Ghost—let alone a little Karami who has mastered a single Ghost, even a Ghost Tamer like Yang Jian who has mastered two Ghosts would find it hard to handle, right? "How about we retreat?"

Huang Fei, one of the Supernatural Forum Trio, also spoke at this moment.

Luo Suyi, as the leader of the three, had lost confidence, and he was even less able to face that Ghost.

Yang Jian listened to the two, his complexion also turned extremely grim.

He didn't know what those guys were thinking, but a Ghost that can cut the Ghost Candle—he himself had no way to counter it.

"How about we try Precognition, to see if we can avoid that Ghost's attack when we go down?"

Han Mo pondered and asked Yang Jian.

This time six people entered the Supernatural Incident together, with Yang Jian as the leader, so Han Mo's words were also seeking Yang Jian's opinion.

As an experienced person in charge, Han Mo knew well what consequences would arise in a Supernatural Incident if one spoke arbitrarily without consulting the team leader.

After all, a team can only have one voice; even if you have a better method, you must present it as an opinion.

Yang Jian heard Han Mo's suggestion and nodded.

"At this point, that's all we can do."

When Yang Jian spoke, his complexion was somewhat gloomy.

He walked to the stair corner facing the first floor, and there his Ghost Eye saw nothing.

But in Xiong Wenwen's Precognition, that Ghost was indeed coming up from the first floor.

With Yang Jian's consent, Xiong Wenwen immediately closed her eyes and began Precognition again.

In the picture, after learning they could not confront the Red and White silhouettes upstairs, the few immediately began descending.

However, just as they reached the first floor, the tall figure from before walked toward them again.

As the cleaver swung down, Huang Fei was the first to be killed.

Next were Luo Suyi and Xiong Wenwen.

But this time, Xiong Wenwen did not have her Precognition interrupted by being killed.

Having been killed twice before, and also realizing they must seek a way out from within Precognition.

After their own death, Xiong Wenwen still maintained the Ghost's Precognition Picture.

At the same time, after suppressing the intense emotions brought by death, Xiong Wenwen found that their Precognition picture no longer moved with their own perspective.

They seemed able to freely check the surrounding situation.

Seeing this, Xiong Wenwen immediately began surveying the nearby area.

At the second‑floor stairwell, the Red and White silhouette that had not met Xiong Wenwen and Yang Jian was oddly holding a beckoning pose.

And at the stair corner, pair after pair of red palm prints were spreading downward, as if something was crawling up, leaving palm‑print after palm‑print.

On the first floor, after Xiong Wenwen and the others died, Yang Jian used Ghost Domain.

But Ghost Domain could not block the attack of the tall male corpse; with a single slash, Yang Jian died.

Then the ghosts of Yang Jian, Luo Suyi, and the others suddenly revived, beginning to assault Han Mo and Lin Luomei.

In the end, Lin Luomei was killed after being revived by Yang Jian, and Han Mo was slashed to death by that male corpse.

Seeing this scene, Xiong Wenwen interrupted the Precognition picture.

Opening both eyes, Xiong Wenwen's complexion was ashen, exuding a chilling aura.

The picture after Precognition of death seemed to stimulate the Ghost inside Xiong Wenwen's body more strongly.

"How's that?" Yang Jian asked concernedly. Xiong Wenwen glanced at everyone, especially at Han Mo a short distance away.

That guy, after being revived by Yang Jian, was not just an auxiliary as he said, but possessed strong Combat Power.

Xiong Wenwen recounted everything that had occurred in the Precognition.

However, after confirming Han Mo's strength, Xiong Wenwen did not say it.

Although they looked like a brat, they were not foolish; they wouldn't do something that offends people.

"That's not right, is it? Yang Jian and the others revived immediately after death?" Han Mo asked, puzzled.

Generally, a Ghost Tamer's Fierce Ghost does not revive that quickly after death.

Even if Yang Jian revived quickly, the Fierce Ghost in his body should need some time to be stimulated.

"No, that's correct."

Yang Jian cut off Han Mo's attempt to continue questioning.

"I have encountered those two ghosts upstairs, the Red Evil among the Red and White Double Evil, which is the Ghost Bride."

"The Ghost Bride possesses a supernatural ability to summon Ghosts; when a Ghost Tamer dies near the Ghost Bride, immediate revival is possible."

"So that means the tall male corpse that suddenly attacked us after we went downstairs was also summoned by the Ghost Bride."

Yang Jian frowned, "The behavior of the Red and White Double Evil is very off."

"Indeed, we haven't had direct contact with them; logically, even if we summon Ghosts, it shouldn't be like this," Han Mo nodded.

"If the Killing Rule of the Red and White Double Evil applies to other Fierce Ghosts, the other Fierce Ghosts in the hotel should have been summoned long ago."

Speaking of that, Han Mo looked toward the stairwell.

"But in reality, no Fierce Ghosts have been summoned in the hotel yet, and we have no signs of attacks from other Fierce Ghosts."

"And the Fierce Ghosts in the Precognition were only summoned after our contact with them the first two times; the third time we had no contact."

"Could it be that the Red and White Double Evil's attack was because they went to the second floor?" Huang Fei asked, puzzled.

"No, that possibility is unlikely," Yang Jian shook his head.

"In fact, I lean toward another possibility, the worst one."

"After the Red and White Double Evil entered the hotel, they were affected by the newspaper Ghost Shadow."

Hearing that, everyone was startled.

The terror of Red and White Double Evil, they already knew it through Precognition.

"If a Ghost like this were truly controlled by a newspaper Ghost, how terrifying would that newspaper Ghost have to be?"

Luo Suyi said in a deep voice; although he forced himself to keep a serious demeanor, everyone noticed the fear deep in his eyes.

"Indeed, as far as I know, the newspaper Ghost shouldn't have the ability to control them."

Yang Jian frowned; he had fought the newspaper Ghost before.

That Ghost, though very strange, its Terror Level was nowhere near Qian Si Xin Niang, let alone the current ghost bride.

With such a huge supernatural gap, plus the ghost bride's unique Ghost Summoning ability, the newspaper Ghost could not possibly control the other side.

Even if one tried a clever control, it could only achieve a slight influence; it could not at all cause the ghost bride to strike oneself without triggering the Killing Rule.

"Unless..."

Yang Jian frowned, he thought of something.

Yang Jian took out a palm-sized box, its whole surface golden; it was a Golden Box.
