Chapter 110 Investment
On the helicopter flying back to Dajing City, Li Jun looked at Wang Xiaoming, who was lost in thought, hesitated for a moment, and then said:

"Professor Wang, is it really worth exchanging so many supernatural resources for this coffin?"

He said this not because he didn't understand the value of this S-level vengeful ghost coffin and ghost messenger, but because he was somewhat dissatisfied with Wang Liang, as the head of the headquarters, asking for so many resources so readily, which was simply taking advantage of the situation to rob him.

Wang Xiaoming snapped out of his daze, glanced at Li Jun, and said:
"It's not just the ghost coffin. The research requirement that Wang Liang just told me—it was a requirement, but also a revelation—showed me a new way to control vengeful ghosts. In my opinion, this is no less valuable than the coffin. If we can figure it out, the situation of the domestic paranormal outbreak can be well controlled."

Li Jun was taken aback.

"Complete crash! Ghosts are inanimate objects that rigidly follow certain rules. If a ghost, or even multiple ghosts, can crash like a computer program, it means that the ghost tamer will not be able to revive the ghost and can make the most of the ghost's power."

"And this ghost coffin has given me a direction for experimenting on turning people into ghosts. There are two paths, both allowing the use of supernatural powers without cost. If either one succeeds, the value will be immeasurable. Giving him those resources is fine; it's not a waste for him and Yang Jian to have them."

Upon hearing this, Li Jun fully understood Wang Xiaoming's meaning and realized its value.

"I see. As long as we can figure out how to make the vengeful ghosts crash, or even find a way to mass-produce crashed vengeful ghosts, then the situation in the country can indeed be greatly alleviated! There won't be so many officials dying because of the resurrection of vengeful ghosts!" Li Jun was somewhat excited.

Wang Xiaoming shook his head.

"It won't be that simple, but I've seen the direction, and that's enough. There's another reason why I agreed to trade those resources with Wang Liang."

Wang Xiaoming quietly watched Li Jun, and the calmness in his eyes gradually calmed the excitement in Li Jun's eyes as he waited for Professor Wang to speak.

"You've seen his file too. He handled multiple paranormal events in a short period of time without his condition worsening. He even went so far as to use the Ghost Realm to travel frequently."

"You also possess the ability of the Ghost Domain, but even using it once causes some restless ghosts. He, however, uses it for travel. In this context, he explicitly mentions the concept of 'crash.' Do you think he has controlled any 'crash' ghosts, and how many? Can you fathom the level of power someone like that could achieve?"

Li Jun was startled, his expression turned serious, and he remembered that he had just been stopped by the Ghost Domain.

Wang Xiaoming turned his head, his eyes vacant again, and continued to think of various solutions to cause the system to crash, finally uttering a single sentence.

"This is also an investment."

No one spoke inside the helicopter, and Li Jun also fell silent, lost in thought.

After the matter was over, Wang Liang and Yang Jian got into Zhang Han's sports car and drove away.

As for Zhang Han, he left with them, but still sat in the dilapidated trunk of his car with a bitter face.

As the vehicle sped along the road, Wang Liang said to Zhang Han:

"Zhang Han, what I just discussed, apart from the quota for controlling vengeful spirits, doesn't include you. You need to understand that and not overthink it."

Zhang Han was not surprised at all: "I understand, Brother Wang. I'm already lucky to have gotten the spot to control the vengeful spirit. I wouldn't dare to ask for anything else. You guys took care of that."

Wang Liang nodded, then said to Yang Jian:

"Where do you live now?"

"Well, I might have run into that ghost that alters memories where I used to live, so I'm living in a studio apartment in Xinhua Community now. There's also an auntie there."

Yang Jian seemed a little embarrassed, and his eyes were wandering while driving, which was a rare sight for him.

Because what he just said made it sound like he was being kept, even though his relationship with Jiang Yan wasn't that kind of relationship. If you had to say, it was him who kept Jiang Yan and provided her with protection. But that apartment was indeed rented by Jiang Yan, and he was the one who was staying there.

Most importantly, regardless of who is supporting whom, it would feel somewhat awkward to say this to Teacher Wang or the homeroom teacher who is standing nearby.

Wang Liang found it somewhat amusing; Yang Jian, as a human being, was indeed quite emotionally rich.

After all, he had only been a ghost tamer for about two weeks, and had not been too deeply affected by the vengeful ghost inside him, nor had he become an anomaly.

"Lend me your golden pouch for a moment. I'll return it to you after I've stored the vengeful spirit there. As for what we just discussed with headquarters, you can go and discuss the handover with Wang Xiaoming's company yourself."

You can keep that ghost candle for now. I'll have Zhao Jianguo deliver the rest of the supernatural resources to Dachang City later. I'll be in Dachang City for the next few days, so we'll distribute them after they arrive.

"Okay, Teacher Wang, you can arrange what you've negotiated. Anyway, you won't cheat me."

Yang Jian nodded, having no objection. He trusted that Teacher Wang would allocate the resources reasonably, especially since he currently had a ghost candle in his hands.

However, compared to those unfamiliar or even unknown paranormal resources, he is actually more concerned about how much money Wang Xiaoming's company actually has.

'Such a famous professor must have hundreds of millions in his company, right? I'll send some to my mom first when the money arrives, and let Jiang Yan continue to manage the rest. Let's see if we can double the money. If not, we'll just buy gold!' Yang Jian thought to himself. His thoughts at this time were so simple.

“Of course,” Wang Liang said.

He picked up the two golden body bags at his feet. There were five ghosts in total, three of them new, belonging to Ye Jun, Zhang Yiming, and Feng Quan respectively.

"Alright, I'm leaving now. I'll go back and store the vengeful spirit. I'll come back to talk to you again when I have some free time these next few days."

Zhang Han was in the trunk, and there were many things he couldn't explain in detail. He also couldn't let Yang Jian take out the human skin paper and let him test it right now.

Furthermore, after the incident with the ghost coffin, Wang Liang didn't have much hope of directly controlling the human skin paper, so he wasn't in a hurry and decided to put the vengeful ghost back first.

Enveloped in a ghostly aura, Wang Liang disappeared into the speeding sports car.

In the distance, a hazy white mist trailed a long, meteor-like tail across the sky, merging into the clouds and disappearing into the distance.

After Wang Liang left, Zhang Han climbed over the trunk and finally "sat" in his own car, letting out a comfortable sigh. Then, with a somewhat strange expression, he said:

"Yang Jian, your teacher is always like that, um..."

"What do you want to say?" Yang Jian asked expressionlessly.

"That's how it is. He just opens the Ghost Domain and leaves whenever he wants. He uses this terrifying ability so casually. Won't the vengeful spirits revive like that? How does he do it?"

"Heh, you talk too much. This is not something you should know," Yang Jian sneered.

But Yang Jian was also internally complaining. He thought that Teacher Wang's situation was most likely the same as the ghost crash or alien that had just been mentioned in the pedestrian street, but somehow he also wanted to know.

Even though he now controls two vengeful spirits, achieving a balance and delaying their resurrection, he can't just open a ghost domain like Teacher Wang did, simply to speed up his journey.
"Well, okay, just asking, don't mind it." Zhang Han quickly shook his head, realizing that his question was too presumptuous, and hurriedly shut his mouth.

Yang Jian's abilities have become clear from this incident; he's no ordinary rookie ghost tamer. Now that he has a terrifying teacher standing behind him, it's best for him not to provoke him.
