Chapter 432: Circle of Friends
"...I'm not very familiar with the situation overseas, but speaking domestically, when supernatural incidents first began appearing, they were initially encountered by some people from the populace. These people gathered together to form the earliest supernatural forums, which is the force currently headed by Ye Zhen from Dahai City."
"However, although the supernatural forum led by Ye Zhen was the earliest to start, the ones who first intervened in supernatural incidents with real purpose weren't them but Ye Zhen; it was them."
In the room, Li Yao sat on the sofa, wearing a bathrobe, sipping coffee, and using that seductive voice to explain some matters to Yang Jian, who was before her.
"So who are 'they'? A large group of ghost masters?" Yang Jian asked calmly.
Li Yao revealed a confident smile as before, "No, 'they' refers to a group of capitalists. As you know, many wealthy people are quite superstitious. So by a twist of fate, they encountered real supernatural phenomena and became intensely curious. Driven by this curiosity, they gradually formed a circle."
"And the earliest wealthy individuals to join this circle have now become a domestic force that cannot be ignored," she continued.
"As capital operates, they have enough funds and act quickly enough to uncover the truth behind supernatural incidents. Thus, they built laboratories, recruited ghost masters with supernatural abilities, and even acquired some detained malevolent spirits."
"It must be said that these capitalists have a very sharp eye for opportunity. While others were afraid of the supernatural incidents, they saw an opportunity," she pointed out.
"However, this situation didn't last long. Later, the state intervened, began forcibly requisitioning certain special things, and these capitalists had no choice but to resist. Instead, they continued to participate in the subsequent series of plans through cooperation," Li Yao explained.
