Chapter 118 Cao Yanhua: Fang Shiming, don't cause trouble (2.3k)

why? !

Despair and resentment filled Fang Shiming's chest, and he let out an angry and desperate roar.

The beckoning of the mummified bride greatly accelerated the process of the vengeful spirit within him resurrecting.

They originally had three minutes to unleash their full power and take down either Lu Ming or Yang Jian.

Now it seems that Lu Ming's appearance has ruined his plans.

"This was all planned long ago, to lure out the real me..."

"There's a traitor within our circle of friends. Li Yao's intelligence is false... Yes, it's Li Yao. She's already been taken into custody by Lu Ming's side..."

At this moment, countless thoughts flashed through Fang Shiming's mind. He understood many things, but by the time he understood them, it was too late.

The oppressive effect of the ghost on Yang Jian had been lifted, and without hesitation, Yang Jian immediately let the ghost shadow invade.

Now is the best opportunity to get rid of Fang Shiming; we absolutely cannot miss it.

Otherwise, once he recovers, or if he uses other special methods to temporarily suppress the resurgence of the vengeful spirit within him, things will become extremely difficult to handle.

However, the ghostly attack did not have the desired effect.

Fang Shiming tossed out a strange rag doll with trembling hands. The doll was made of a peculiar material and emitted a foul stench of corpses.

And as soon as the doll's feet were released from the ground, it immediately began to run around happily.

This is a supernatural prop called a substitute doll. It is very effective against ghosts in supernatural events, but it is not very effective against ghost tamers with ghost domains.

Just like Lu Ming did when he invaded the headquarters, a Ghost Master with a Ghost Domain could use the Ghost Domain to send away most of the doll's body, thus rendering the supernatural item ineffective.

However, Fang Shiming didn't care.

Even a moment's delay is enough.

This was the opportunity he needed.

The moment Fang Shiming threw the substitute doll out, a chilling ghostly wind suddenly swept through the air. The eeriness of this wind was extremely terrifying, even distorting Yang Jian's ghostly figure.

His own body was propelled backward along the street at a rapid speed by the gust of wind.

This is Fang Shiming's escape route.

After being affected by the ghostly influence of the mummified bride, the vengeful spirit within him is about to awaken.

It could be a minute later, or it could be the next second.

Fang Shiming couldn't think of a way to solve his current predicament.

But he was absolutely unwilling to just wait to die.

As the CEO of a powerful social circle, even if he were to die from the resurrection of a vengeful ghost, he couldn't just die so quietly.

It triggered a large-scale paranormal event, keeping these people extremely busy and stressed, which can be considered as having served some purpose.

Of course, it would be best if an unexpected turn of events occurred and he survived this ordeal.

"According to the records about Lu Ming, this guy has almost no weaknesses... It's almost impossible to kill him. However, the range of his ghost domain shouldn't be that big. I'll use ghost wind to escape. He might not be able to find me for a while."

Fang Shiming's expression remained as wooden and lifeless as a corpse.

However, he was in a very irritable mood.

Few people can accept their own death with equanimity.

But Fang Shiming couldn't think of any other chance he could have to survive.

His rotting corpse had barely crawled out of the ground when it was affected by the ghostly influence of the mummified bride. Moreover, he was still recklessly using the supernatural power of ghost flesh and ghost wind, so his resurrection was inevitable.

The surrounding environment changes rapidly, and the movement is aided by the ghost wind, similar to how a ghost tamer moves using a ghost realm, which cannot be explained by common sense.

In the blink of an eye, Fang Shiming had already left Da J City.

"This place should be safe for now..."

Fang Shiming surveyed his surroundings with his ferocious eyes, which were covered in bloodshot veins.

He didn't know what city this was, but there were many pedestrians around, making it seem very prosperous and bustling. Neon lights flashed, and the men and women around Fang Shiming were all dressed very fashionably. There was even a young couple embracing tightly and kissing each other without caring about others.

Fang Shiming chose this place.

"If the vengeful spirit were to awaken here, it would definitely cause a large-scale paranormal event. Headquarters would then send Lu Ming and Yang Jian to handle the situation and clean up the mess. Perhaps the ghost within me could even kill them..."

Fang Shiming was very confident in the ghost he could control.

He even felt that if he weren't in such a bad state, even if the ghost groom Lu Ming and the ghost-eyed Yang Jian joined forces, they might not be his match.

Just as Fang Shiming was thinking about these random things, his satellite phone suddenly rang.

Fang Shiming's ferocious eyes shifted slightly as he looked at the contact information displayed on the satellite phone screen.

It was a call from headquarters.

Logically speaking, Fang Shiming still harbors resentment towards headquarters and shouldn't really want to answer the call.

He estimated that once the call was connected, headquarters would only go through the motions and use some perfunctory language to deal with him.

However, Fang Shiming suddenly realized that Professor Wang Xiaoming at headquarters might be able to help him with his current physical condition.

He is an internationally renowned professor of paranormal studies.

Let's treat a dead horse as a living horse doctor.

After all, who would willingly choose to die when there's a chance to survive?
After only a slight hesitation, Fang Shiming connected the call.

"It's me, Fang Shiming."

Fang Shiming's voice was extremely hoarse, which sounded very unpleasant.

"Fang Shiming, where are you now?"

Surprisingly, it wasn't the operator who spoke at this moment, but Deputy Minister Cao Yanhua.

The vice minister called personally.

Upon hearing Cao Yanhua's voice, Fang Shiming's stiff and numb expression softened somewhat.

If Cao Yanhua could apologize in person, and Wang Xiaoming could help him come up with a way to deal with the resurgence of the vengeful ghost, Fang Shiming might be able to forgive the headquarters for this oversight.

However, before Fang Shiming could speak, another voice came from the satellite phone.

"Fang Shiming, why did you have to provoke Lu Ming for no reason? The ghost messenger incident hasn't been resolved yet, and you're trying to stir up trouble with your circle of friends. No matter what, your circle of friends will have no reason to exist after this."

Cao Yanhua's barrage of questions left Fang Shiming stunned for a while before he could react.

What a joke!
He almost spat out a mouthful of blood, driven to his death by Cao Yanhua's anger.

Has Cao Yanhua gone mad?!

As the president of the WeChat Moments, Cao Yanhua wouldn't dare to speak to him like that even in normal times.

More so now.

And what do you mean by calling Fang Shiming the troublemaker?

I was sitting at home, having a good night's sleep, when I woke up to a notification that my newly created circle of friends had been taken down by Ghost Eye Yang Jian.

Is this considered stirring up trouble?
Fang Shiming even had reason to suspect that Cao Yanhua and that Lu Ming were in cahoots.

The person calling now might be looking for technicians to pinpoint his location.

The more I thought about it, the more frustrated I felt, but I really didn't have time to argue with Cao Yanhua right now.

Fang Shiming gritted his teeth and hung up the phone.

Just as he was about to hang up, the phone rang again.

Influenced by the supernatural, Fang Shiming's consciousness was no longer very clear, so he did not notice that the telephone ringing was different from before.

The rhythm is slow, but it doesn't make you feel relaxed. Instead, it reveals an inexplicable sense of strangeness that is incredibly creepy.

This is not Fang Shiming's phone ringtone at all.
