Chapter 215: Chapter 214 Tianyan Association

It took a lot of talking to calm down the uncle and nephew, who were almost scared out of their minds.

Many candles were lit in Room 1204.

The original girly-style living room was now filled with Tai Chi Ba Gua charts, Taoist amulets, prayer beads, and crucifixes.

It seemed that Zhao Jiu relied on these things to comfort herself, but sadly, they were not genuine.

Moreover, with so many religious sects, they would need to fight with each other first before even trying to save her.

There were a sleeping bag in the living room and some instant food products not far away.

It seemed that Zhao Jiu hadn’t left the room for a long time.

He Feng finally had a chance to wash his face. He went from a terribly unlucky guy to someone with great luck.

Mr. Bai was still comforting Uncle Zhao and Zhao Jiu. He used some suggestive means to calm them down slightly.

However, they still looked terrified when they saw Li Changhe.

Or perhaps, they were terrified seeing Yun Ting, who was playing with her phone behind Li Changhe.

Maybe Yun Ting’s casual demeanor, entering the house and immediately marveling at how big it was, then taking Li Changhe’s phone and lying on the sofa to play with it, helped them feel a bit more at ease.

"Honestly, Brother Ting, your behavior is pretty embarrassing," Li Changhe complained.

Then he looked at Zhao Jiu and asked, "Do you see Brother Ting attached to me?"

Feeling a little more secure with more people around, Zhao Jiu looked at Li Changhe and nodded slightly, "Yes, I can see an unusual phantom overlapping with you. It kind of looks like the ones I usually see."

Then, she carefully observed Li Changhe and asked softly, "Have we met before?"

Li Changhe shrugged, "I just came back from a trip to the Kingdom of Women!"

The Kingdom of Women... Zhao Jiu’s face twitched, recalling that right before the nightmare began, a young man was buying a book in the bookstore.

He even clamored about going to the Kingdom of Women in the end.

"So, it’s you... I didn’t expect to meet again under such circumstances." Zhao Jiu’s haggard face showed a smile.

"Also, thank you for saving me back then."

Li Changhe’sexpression changed slightly, he had mentioned saving Zhao Jiu to Uncle Zhao. However, he hadn’t gotten the chance to tell Zhao Jiu himself.

Zhao Jiu glanced at Yun Ting and whispered, "I still remember her voice."

After all, she was the person who saved her life back then - Li Changhe had let Yun Ting speak. Had she remembered Yun Ting’s voice?

"Oh, since you two know each other, it makes things easier." He Feng, done washing his face, walked out of the bathroom and asked, "When did you start being able to see ghosts?"

"After I was attacked. People dressed in the same windbreakers as you watched over me in the hospital for two days. Afterward, I saw them on the busy street when I tried to go to work." Zhao Jiu replied quietly, glancing at the floor-to-ceiling window on the balcony.

Li Changhe and He Feng were now wearing the [Great Wall Combat Cloaks] given by Luo Kai and his team during the [Sea Clan Invasion].

After all, from Luo Kai’s perspective, Li Changhe was a hidden ally of the [Great Wall], while He Feng and Wang Er were his new recruits, so they were allowed to stay.

"Let me get this straight: more than a month ago, Zhao Jiu encountered the perpetrator, and Li happened to receive an [Instant Task] to save Zhao Jiu." He Feng gestured with his hands on the coffee table, "After that, Li didn’t see Zhao Jiu again. The [Great Wall] people took care of Zhao Jiu and arranged for her to undergo hypnosis and suggestive treatment. However, for some reason, after they left, Zhao Jiu broke free from the hypnosis and suggestion, gained the ability to see ghosts, and then hid away in fear. Is that correct?"

Zhao Jiu nodded.

Mr. Bai frowned and said, "That’s not right. Self-removal of suggestions and hypnosis? The probability is low, and I have the most say in this. [Great Wall] as an official organization, they will also use some [Equipment] as a security measure. It’s impossible for him to break it on his own."

"Can you remember when you started recalling it?"

Zhao Jiu shook his head.

"How long will it take for you to remove the suggestion and hypnosis, Brother Bai?" Li Changhe asked.

"It depends on how well the other party set it up. But [Great Wall] usually uses [Equipment] as a security measure. Even if it were me, I would have to spend four or five hours in a situation where the target is awake. This is why countries have been able to keep the [Evolution Game] hidden for so long." Mr. Bai said, "Zhao Jiu is not a [Player], it’s impossible for him to strengthen himself to break through suggestions and hypnosis."

He Feng’s eyes flickered, then he regained his focus and said, "I just checked the [forum], and I found that some ghosts can possess human bodies. This requires Breaking Mysterious Demon Eye, or... some special transcendent person!"

"Could Zhao Jiu be a transcendent person? Or have a demon eye?" Li Changhe furrowed his brows.

"I’m not sure, but at least there’s a possibility."

"Well, the cause is still unknown, but now we at least know why Zhao Jiu was targeted by these ghosts." Li Changhe pondered, "For example, the mountain climbing ghost from before was trying to convey some message. He was just following Zhao Jiu around. It could be considered friendly, as there were no supernatural events happening."

"But the one in the elevator was hostile. There was no way to communicate with it; it just wanted to kill me. Why was it following Zhao Jiu, though? Just because Zhao Jiu could see it?" He Feng frowned, "We need to ask a transcendent person about this. Or maybe ask [Great Wall]?"

"Let’s not bother her with this since she’s preparing for a [Plot Task]. We don’t want her to be distracted." Li Changhe thought for a moment, "Do we know any transcendent people?"

"Mr. All-known... And the abbot at Jiushan Temple. Those are the only two in the real world." He Feng spread his hands.

Mr. Bai shook his head, "The transcendent people I’ve encountered are not my friends."

"Tsk." Li Changhe scratched his head, "To be honest, I don’t really want to contact transcendent people. And with Mr. All-known’s abilities, I think he’ll figure out what we’re up to if I ask him a few questions."

If they couldn’t resolve Zhao Jiu’s issue, they worried that more ghosts would come to haunt them even after completing this [Task].

What’s the point of living here, then? Fighting supernatural beings day and night?

"Let’s just ask and see. If he’s willing to take over, it will save us a lot of trouble." After discussing with the others, they decided to just move and find another place if necessary. They couldn’t live here anymore.

"Mr. All-known! Can you see ghosts or demon beasts possessing humans?" Li Changhe sent a message to Pan Ke in [Friends].

"Already possessed? I can’t do that, but my [Passive Skills] can sense it. What’s up? Planning to learn some transcendent Daoist techniques?" Mr. All-known replied quickly, "Don’t bother with Buddhism, the Buddha is all about Dao anyway."

"I encountered a character in my [Task] who can see supernatural beings and demon beasts, even though he’s not a transcendent person or a [Player]. Can we learn this skill?" Li Changhe carefully phrased his question.

"....What are you playing at? Where are you? I’ll be there in no time. You can’t handle this. If Tianyan Association finds out, you guys are dead meat! Also, it’s almost 9 o’clock... If any ghosts show up, don’t be in a hurry to take action!"

The next second, all the [Players] had a slight change in their expressions as they looked at the figure that quietly appeared on the balcony.

Li Changhe silently sent an address, then replied, "Damn, you really jinxed it. As soon as you finished talking, he’s already here."

"Calm down, and don’t show any hostility. I’ll be there soon."

Meanwhile, in a residential area near Yanyun City Middle School.

A chubby boy in pajamas turned over and got up.

"Damn it, what kind of luck is this? You found a place with someone who has Innate Yin-Yang Eyes?"

At the same time, at the filming location in the eastern suburbs, Tang Lai, who was resting, received a phone call and his expression changed slightly.
