Chapter 500: Mediation
A meeting that seemed like a normal discussion on how to solve the Ghost Envoy incident, was in fact full of ulterior motives.
Deputy Minister Cao Yanhua desperately wanted the incident resolved, but he also didn’t want to involve the Hungry Ghost because he had been in charge of the Dachang City case before. Although the incident had been dealt with at that time, from Professor Wang’s report, the danger level of that ghost was definitely not lower than that of the Ghost Envoy.
In fact, the threat it posed to ordinary people was far greater than the current Ghost Envoy, so he had never agreed to Jang Shangbai’s presumptuous plan.
However, for other spirit controllers, whether the Hungry Ghost would lose control was not important. They all hoped the Ghost Envoy incident would not involve them, and now Jang Shangbai, eager to take action, had proposed a viable plan.
No matter the consequences, they would blindly support it first.
If the plan succeeded, then everyone would be pleased.
If it failed, the worst-case scenario would be going back to square one and continuing the discussion on how to resolve the Ghost Envoy incident, since it wouldn’t entail any loss for them anyway.
There were not a few who watched with detached interest.
The only one who stood up against this plan was Yang Jian.
