A complete concept-level outfit, not even sparing the red-clad female ghost.

Hongyi remained silent for a moment, seemingly considering how to answer.

A few seconds later, she spoke:

"They're definitely among the strongest."

"I've been awake for hundreds of years and have seen many vengeful ghosts, but there aren't many that can truly stand up to me head-on."

There was a hint of arrogance in her tone.

"not much?"

Zhou Tian astutely grasped this word.

"So, there are still people stronger than you?"

Zhou Tian inquired.

"Yes. Although I haven't seen it with my own eyes."

Hongyi nodded, a hint of apprehension flashing in her dark eyes.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Tian understood.

Above Grade A, there is definitely Grade S.

It could even be higher.

However, judging from Hongyi's tone, the number of vengeful ghosts of that level should be extremely small, belonging to the very top of the pyramid.

"So where are you from?"

"Was it originally in this world? Or did it come from somewhere else?"

Zhou Tian changed the subject.

Hongyi tilted her head, her long hair cascading down her shoulders like a waterfall.

This gesture actually looks kind of...cute?

"We are the ghosts of this world."

"You can think of it as... another dimension."

Hongyi explained.

"Another dimension?"

"What do you mean? A parallel world? Or hell?"

Zhou Tian frowned.

"I have no idea."

"I really don't know. We vengeful ghosts...most of the time act on instinct."

"It's cold and dark there, and there are many beings like me. But I can't say exactly where it is."

Hongyi shook her head, her expression serious.

She paused, then added:

"I don't know anything more. All we know is... we have to come out, we have to do things, we have to... kill people."

When she said the last three words, Hongyi's voice turned cold again.

But she quickly realized she had said the wrong thing.

She quickly lowered her head, not daring to look Zhou Tian in the eye.

Zhou Tian didn't pay any attention.

He stroked his chin, processing this information.

Vengeful spirits should be a unique existence in this world.

"So, the next question."

"How do the humans of this world deal with you?"

"I saw on the broadcast just now that they're waiting for official rescue. Do they have any special methods?"

Zhou Tian looked at Hong Yi.

Upon hearing this, a complex emotion flashed in Hongyi's dark eyes.

"It's very simple for you humans to deal with vengeful ghosts."

"It's about controlling vengeful spirits."

Hongyi explained.

"Controlling vengeful spirits?"

"What do you mean? Explain in detail."

Zhou Tian's eyes lit up.

"It's about... turning human bodies into containers for vengeful spirits."

"Through some special method, humans and vengeful spirits can achieve a... symbiotic relationship."

"Humans can use some of the abilities of vengeful spirits, while vengeful spirits can utilize human physical activities without certain restrictions."

Rainbow Clothes organized her thoughts.

"Sounds like... a contract?"

Zhou Tian seemed to be deep in thought.

"More or less."

"However, very few people can successfully control a vengeful spirit. Out of a hundred people, perhaps only one can withstand its corruption."

"And even if they succeed, they won't live long."

"The power of the vengeful ghost will continuously erode their bodies and souls, eventually either turning them into madmen or completely replacing them with the vengeful ghost."

Hongyi nodded and continued.

"And what about their strength?"

"How much of the power of a vengeful spirit can a human who has mastered it unleash?"

Zhou Tian pressed for an answer.

"Generally speaking, even if one manages to control a vengeful spirit, it's difficult to be a match for a spirit of the same level?"

Hongyi thought for a moment and continued.

Zhou Tian fell silent.

He leaned against the headboard, his mind racing.

Commanding vengeful spirits...

This sounds a lot like the setting in some novels he read in his previous life.

Humans gain superhuman power by allowing vengeful spirits to reside within their bodies.

But the price is a shortened lifespan, mental pollution, and even being devoured by vengeful ghosts.

This is a classic case of drinking poison to quench thirst.

but....

Zhou Tian looked at Hong Yi, his eyes becoming playful.

"Rainbow Robe".

"You said... can I handle you?"

Zhou Tian spoke slowly.

Hongyi's delicate body trembled.

"You...you want to control me?"

She suddenly looked up, her dark eyes filled with astonishment.

"What, is that not allowed?"

"Didn't you say that humans can control vengeful spirits? Then I'm human too, why can't I control you?"

Zhou Tian said with a smile.

"But...."

Hongyi opened her mouth, but for a moment she didn't know how to answer.

Theoretically, of course.

Any human being, if they master the method, has the potential to control a vengeful spirit.

But the problem is...

"Do you... need to control me?"

"You already have that...that ability."

Hongyi asked cautiously.

"That's two different things."

"After all, who wouldn't want to have a little ghost girl?"

Zhou Tian shook his head and joked with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Hongyi's cheeks flushed slightly.

Moreover, Hongyi knew very well.

If Zhou Tian were to gain control of himself, he would only become more terrifying!

Since they are not afraid of being harmed by female ghosts, they don't need to worry about being attacked back.

At the same time, she can use her power to fight other enemies.

This is simply...

It is a real vengeful ghost.

"Theoretically, yes."

"But... controlling vengeful spirits requires special methods. I don't know if you know them..."

Hongyi finally nodded.

"Methods can be learned."

The question is, are you willing to be controlled by me?

Zhou Tian interrupted her.

Hongyi fell silent again.

Are you willing?

Of course I wouldn't.

No vengeful spirit with self-awareness would willingly be controlled by humans.

That means losing your freedom and becoming someone else's tool.

but....

Hongyi secretly glanced at Zhou Tian.

The man before me is completely different from other humans.

He doesn't need to control her to do whatever he wants to her.

If you refuse...

Hongyi trembled again as she recalled what had just happened.

"I...I do."

She lowered her head, her voice so soft it was almost inaudible.

"very good."

Zhou Tian smiled with satisfaction.

He reached out and gently lifted Hongyi's chin.

This action made Hongyi stiffen all over, but she dared not resist.

"Then tell me, what are the specific methods for controlling vengeful spirits?"

Zhou Tian inquired.

"That is, actively allowing supernatural forces to completely invade."

Hongyi thought for a moment and then spoke directly.

"To allow the power of a vengeful ghost to completely invade oneself?"

Zhou Tian repeated it, raising his eyebrows slightly.

This method sounds simple and crude, even somewhat suicidal.

According to Hongyi's description, the success rate of an ordinary human attempting to control a vengeful spirit is less than one in ten thousand.

The consequence of failure is either immediate death.

Either your body will be completely possessed by a vengeful ghost, turning you into a walking corpse.

"right."

"This is the most primitive and direct method."

Hongyi nodded, a complex emotion flashing in her dark eyes.

Zhou Tian understood.

Simply put, it's a gamble where you either have everything or nothing.

If you win, you will gain the full power of the vengeful spirit.

If you lose, you lose your life.

"interesting."
