Chapter 39: Target Change

Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

“I believe both of you have a general understanding of the situation, yes? Wang Shanshan’s situation will be getting worse, so as an outsider, my suggestion will be that it would be best if you… gave birth to another child,” Yang Jian said.

The car was stopped at a busy area in the city.

The few of them had gotten out of the car and were now sitting on the bench at the side of the road to discuss what had happened.

“You… How can you say that?” Wang Haiyan took offense and said, “Isn’t there a way to get rid of the seal?”

“The two are almost the same. If you get rid of the seal by replacing it with another one, the final result will still be the same,” Yang Jian said. “Although my words are a little harsh, they are the truth. Uncle Wang, what do you think?”

Wang Bin frowned as he smoked. As the head of the family, he had no clue what to do at the moment. He was very frustrated and worried.

He knew what Yang Jian meant.

If the seal was not removed, the ghost baby would follow Shanshan forever. If the seal was to be removed, another seal would have to be added. The result would remain the same, and it could at most be delayed for a short while.

“Dad, mom, it’s okay. There’s no hope for me. Let me face the ghost baby alone. I can’t drag you guys down because of my matters,” said Wang Shanshan with tears in her eyes.

Upon learning that this was her end, she was no longer so afraid.

As a mother, Wang Haiyan was heartbroken when she heard these words. Tears kept flowing down her face. The mother and daughter hugged and cried in front of the passers-by.

“No, this can’t do. How can I watch my daughter being tortured to death by that thing?” Wang Bin threw the cigarette away. He stood up and seemed to have made up his mind as he said, “Yang Jian, if I agree to add another seal on Shanshan, do you have any ways to do it?”

Yang Jian said, “I do have a way, but the result won’t be better than this. It’ll just delay the time of death. What’s the idiom? To quench a thirst with poison. That’s more or less what doing this will amount to.”

“If that seal is not removed, Shanshan will not live more than three days, right?” Wang Bin said.

Yang Jian said, “No, she won’t live more than even a day. Previously, Wang Shanshan was not attacked because the seal in her hand had not disappeared, so the ghost baby had not attacked her. But now that the seal in her hand has disappeared, the ghost baby will probably come back in an hour… … maybe even sooner.”

“What if the ghost’s seal is erased?”Wang bin asked.

Yang Jian said, “She will live if the ghost rider lives, and die if the ghost rider dies. By estimation, she will probably have a few months to live, which might make the situation seem better, but the result will still be the same… Plus, I’m not sure if there will be other side effects.”

“At this point, even if it’s poison, we have to take it. We can’t give up even the slightest chance,” Wang Bin clenched his jaw and said, “Yang Jian, I would like you to do this for me. I will pay for it. How much do you want?”

Yang Jian looked at how Wang Shanshan and her mother, Wang Haiyan, were hugging and crying, and said, “This is not a supernatural incident, nor is it a fight with a malicious ghost. There isn’t much risk… Seeing that Uncle Wang had been so frank before, I will do it for you for free this time. However, I can’t guarantee anything if anything happens to Wang Shanshan after this.”

“Thank you. That’s enough. I will be responsible for all the consequences. Even if something happens to Shanshan in the future, I won’t blame you,” Wang Bin took a deep breath and said.

Such decisiveness and boldness were indeed the temperaments of a successful person, unlike Wang Haiyan who was fussy, indecisive, and calculative.

“In that case, let’s start now. I’m afraid that the ghost baby is already on its way here,” Yang Jian said.

Wang Bin said, “Shanshan, come here.”

Wang Shanshan raised her head. Her eyes were red and swollen from crying. She looked at Wang Bin and Yang Jian with tears on her face.

“Wang Shanshan, if you’ve decided, then give me your hand,” Yang Jian said.

“Go. We’ll talk about the future when it comes. Let’s get through this obstacle first,” Wang Bin still had a worried look on his face. He did not know whether his decision today would harm his daughter or save her.

“Yang Jian, thank you,” Wang Shanshan bit her lips and reached out her hand.

She still wanted to live and not die, especially not in the hands of such a terrifying thing.

“We’re classmates. Besides, I received the money,” Yang Jian grabbed her wrist, just like in school, “Get rid of the bandage on your neck. I want to see the seal.”

Wang Haiyan didn’t say a word and carefully untied the bandage.

The skin on the young girl’s delicate neck was torn, scarlet red, and smeared with medicine. In the middle of the wound, two small dark green handprints could be clearly seen.

Yang Jian’s gaze moved slightly. He recalled his previous actions and grabbed Wang Shanshan’s palm. His palm split open and an eyeball popped out.

The eyeball emitted a faint red light. The red light seeped out from between his fingers and started to penetrate Wang Shanshan’s wrist.

He chose the same spot for the red eyeball to penetrate as last time.

As the red light went into Wang Shanshan’s wrist, Yang Jian saw the dark green handprints on her neck gradually fade and become fainter… … Until it began to fade on its own.

“It, it’s useful,” Wang Bin’s eyes widened as he witnessed such a magical scene with his own eyes.

Of course it was useful.

Yang Jian could feel that there was the existence of the ghost eyeball in Wang Shanshan’s body. It was as if an eyeball had been transferred into her body, but it did not seem that way either… To be exact, a part of the ghost power had been transferred and stored in Wang Shanshan’s body.

After a moment, the two dark green handprints on Wang Shanshan’s neck had completely disappeared…

Seeing this, Yang Jian finally let go of his hand.

He saw a clear ghost eyeball seal on Wang Shanshan’s wrist. It was like a tattoo of a red eyeball. It was especially eye-catching as it emitted a faint red light.

“It’s gone. It’s really gone. The handprints have disappeared.”

“Shanshan, how do you feel now? Are you alright?”

Wang Bin and his wife were a little excited.

Wang Shanshan felt the changes in her body for a while and said, “There doesn’t seem to be anything wrong. I feel very good… and a little strange, but I can’t tell. In any case, I feel much better than before.”

As she said that, she looked deeply into the eyes next to her.

Her gaze was very different from usual, but one couldn’t tell exactly how.

“That’s great,” Wang Haiyan hugged her excitedly.

Yang Jian also felt a change in his body.

It wasn’t a big change. He just felt a little weak like he had just had sex.

“Only people who can control the ghost realm are qualified to have ghost slaves. Though, I wonder what’s the difference between being the ghost slave of a living human to that of a malicious ghost. It’s almost certain that Wang Shanshan will not be like a normal person. It’s just that this change can only be discovered through observation in the future,” Yang Jian thought to himself.

While he was removing the seal, on a street not far away from here, a dark green child was running at a strange speed on the ground, quickly rushing toward Wang Shanshan.

“Did you see a strange child running over there just now?” Someone on the road asked in surprise when he saw this scene.

His companion said, “What child? Are you seeing things?”

However, before the ghost baby had run far from them, it suddenly stopped.

The seal had disappeared, thus it has lost its target.

If it didn’t have a first-choice target, it would randomly choose passersby on this road to start killing indiscriminately.

“F*ck, I bumped into something,” At this moment, a young man who was passing by accidentally bumped into the ghost baby as he was playing with his phone. He almost fell down.

However, when he turned around to look, there was nothing.

Then, when he turned back round to continue shopping, he was instantly stunned.

A naked, dark green child was standing in front of him with its head tilted as it looked at him with a strange expression.

The young man looked at the ghost baby with a strange expression and felt that there was something wrong with the child. Perhaps it was a street child or perhaps it was crazy. He did not want to provoke such a child, so he went around it and continued to walk forward.

However, before he could leave far away, the ghost baby moved.

It turned around and did not continue in the direction of Wang Shanshan. Instead, it followed the young man that had just bumped into it…

The horror was continuing, it was only that its target had changed…
