Li Zhuiyuan kept the Ghost Domain open, carrying Yang Jian as they moved at high speed through the Ghost Domain, shuttling through the streets and alleys.

They arrived in front of a clothing store and saw a luxury car with its engine still running.

Through the car window, the two saw Jiang Yan looking nervous inside, with a woman in a business suit sitting next to her, who looked like a saleswoman.

Upon seeing Yang Jian, Jiang Yan rushed over, hugged his neck, and exclaimed excitedly, "I knew you would come to save me!"

"If I only rescue two people, Zhao Jianguo probably won't agree to my conditions. Go back and check if Tong Qian is dead. If she's not, take them with you." Li Zhuiyuan used his Ghost Domain to return to the intersection where he had left earlier.

After discovering that everyone had disappeared, Li Zhuiyuan's cold voice echoed throughout the surroundings.

"Those who arrive here in three minutes, I'll take you away."

"No time limit."

A short while later, Tong Qian, with her hair in a high ponytail and a grim expression, walked out of a nearby shop.

"You just left so suddenly. I thought you were going to leave us here to die."

Li Zhuiyuan said calmly, "I'm making a deal with Zhao Jianguo. If I can't even rescue one Interpol agent, it will be very difficult to get him to agree to my conditions. As for how many ordinary people I can take with me after I rescue you, that doesn't matter."

Tong Qian realized that in Li Zhuiyuan's eyes, she was just a valuable bargaining chip in the deal.

However, she dared not say anything more. She felt that Li Zhuiyuan was a cold person to the core, and if she made him unhappy, he might not save anyone.

At this moment, more than a dozen survivors walked out from the side.

One of the older women who had followed him out of the hot pot restaurant saw Li Zhuiyuan and immediately glared at him, accusingly saying, "What's wrong with you, kid? You brought us out and then just left us? You suddenly disappeared; aren't you worried that ghosts will come after us and kill us?"

"You think you're Interpol agents? I'll definitely report you to your superiors after I get out. This is dereliction of duty! You're treating human life like dirt!"

Tong Qian's expression changed when she saw the coldness in Li Zhuiyuan's eyes.

She quickly stepped forward and said, "Alright, alright, Auntie, calm down. We'll be leaving soon."

But once the older woman got going, she couldn't stop talking and started talking about Tong Qian with a sidelong glance.

"And you too, you say you're not as capable as others, can't you even control a colleague younger than you? You didn't stop him from leaving just now, if something really happens, what ability do you have to protect us?"

Tong Qian's face darkened, but she did not refute.

"Very noisy." After Li Zhuiyuan said this calmly, a bluish-black haze surged towards the chattering old woman, and in the blink of an eye, she disappeared.

Tong Qian's body stiffened, and she hurriedly asked, "Where is she?"

"Who knows? The ghost realm here is vast, and no one knows where it might appear." Li Zhuiyuan coldly swept his gaze over the crowd, his indifferent voice reaching everyone's ears.

"If you don't want to go with her, keep quiet."

The survivors all covered their mouths, and not even a sob could be heard.

"He's not very old, but he has quite an air about him." Just then, a man walked out of a shop next door.

Wearing a scarf and smoking a cigar, he looked like a shady hoodlum.

But he remained calm despite being in the ghost realm, appearing even more composed than Tong Qian. Clearly, he had experienced many supernatural events and was an experienced veteran.

"You must be Li Zhuiyuan. I've heard so much about you. You truly are a young hero."

"Let me introduce myself. My name is Wang Yue, and I am also a Ghost Tamer from Dachang City."

"I'm so unlucky. I was running my bar perfectly well, but I got caught up in a paranormal incident. That old ghost is terrifying beyond belief. It's not easy to survive against him."

"We're all demon tamers from the same city, so please take me with you when you leave with these people."

Li Zhuiyuan calmly said, "I've only dealt with Interpol and the Xiaoqiang Club. You can only have heard of me from Zhao Kaiming or Wang Xiaoqiang. I've already dismantled the Xiaoqiang Club. So, Zhao Kaiming contacted you? Did you discuss how to deal with me?"

Wang Yue's expression changed. He hadn't expected that Li Zhuiyuan would have deduced everything in just a few words.

He explained, "Zhao Kaiming contacted me first, and I was trapped in the ghost realm before I could even agree. If you take me away, I can promise to help you fight Zhao Kaiming."

"You don't know this yet, do you? There's a really powerful guy in the Xiaoqiang Club named Ye Feng. He controls two ghosts. Zhao Kaiming originally wanted me and Ye Feng to deal with you together. If you were suddenly attacked by multiple ghost controllers, you definitely wouldn't be able to hold on."

"The situation has changed now. Take me away, and I'll help you deal with them."

Li Zhuiyuan shook his head and said, "You promised Zhao Kaiming to deal with me before, and now you're saying you'll help me deal with Zhao Kaiming in order to get out. You're just a weathervane, you'll side with whoever is stronger. Compared to taking you out, I think it's better to let you die here."

Wang Yue was stunned. He hadn't expected that after making his stance clear, Li Zhuiyuan would actually try to kill him.

"By the way," Li Zhuiyuan said calmly, "Ye Feng is already dead."

Upon hearing the news of Ye Feng's death, Wang Yue's pupils contracted. Unable to determine whether it was true or not, he immediately turned and ran away.

He had given up hope that Li Zhuiyuan could take him out; all he wanted now was to get away from here as quickly as possible.

Wang Yue then noticed that there was some strange bluish-black haze around him.

He hadn't seen it before because of the darkness, but now he realized something was wrong.

Having experience with the supernatural, he realized that this was the power of a vengeful ghost controlled by Li Zhuiyuan.

Without hesitation, he untied the scarf around his neck.

An old hemp rope appeared around his neck.

The hemp rope was tied in a tight knot around Wang Yue's neck, making it look like an hourglass.

Even so, he still did not die.

This is Guisheng Wangyue.

"Li Zhuiyuan, if you won't let me live, you'll die too!"

"Crack!" A sound of bones breaking came from Wang Yue's neck, and the straw rope tightened even more.

His face turned bright red, and his expression was one of suffocating pain.

"Brother Xiaoyuan!" Yang Jian called out.

"Watch out!" Tong Qian shouted a warning.

Then, Li Zhuiyuan felt a chill on his neck.

Suddenly, a straw rope was looped around his neck, with both ends floating in the air, as if an unseen ghost was throwing the rope from mid-air to strangle him.

A chilling sense of death emanated from the rough straw rope.

Wang Yue, his face flushed, said with difficulty, "Li Zhuiyuan, how does this feel? Even a vengeful ghost bound by straw rope can't break free. So what if you control two ghosts? If it really comes down to a fight, everyone will die!"

Li Zhuiyuan felt the straw rope tightening rapidly, and a terrifying force emanated from it, which was absolutely impossible for human beings to resist.
