Chapter 79: Additional Conditions


    Under our original acquisition n, we intended to purchase the item that Mr. Miles holds, offering a hundred million in cash, paid in full, Sun Lihong began, Naturally, we want to verify that it is indeed what were after.


    I have the contract here, she proceeded. Assuming there are no issues, we can initiate the transaction right away. Our ountant is present and can transfer the funds to your ount within ten minutes.


    Sun Lihong wasted no time once she sat down. She dived straight into discussing the purchase with Miles, subtly suggesting the option for an immediate cash transaction and delivery.


    Miles briefly examined the contractid on the table before pushing it aside. I dont understand the contract, but the price is not a problem. Im willing to sell the item, but I have one additional requirement, he asserted.


    And what would that requirement be, Mr. Miles? Sun Lihong inquired.


    I need to know how to control the second ghost and extend its revival, Miles retorted, his eyes narrowing. Given the fortune youre ready to spend on this, Im confident youve thoroughly researched the subject. I believe you have a solution for our predicament.


    His statement prompted a moment of silence in the club. All eyes focused on Miles and Sun Lihong.


    Is such a thing truly possible? Despite doubts lingering, the interest in everyones gaze heightened.


    The idea that such a method could exist gave them hope of extending their lives, of living on.


    Sun Lihongs brow furrowed slightly. Where did you gather this information? Its not something easily discovered.


    I have my ways. You dont need to concern yourself with that. What I want to know is whether you agree to my additional requirement? Miles stated, his tone serious, If you concur, then we can proceed with a fruitful coboration today.


    Im only authorized to handle the cash purchase of this item. Im not in a position to approve your additional requirement, Sun Lihong responded.


    Then you need to contact your superior, the person who does possess that authority.


    Miles persisted, We all value our time, so please avoid unnecessary dys. Otherwise, I might be irritated. And when Im irritated, things wont be pleasant for anyone.


    Finishing his statement, he held her in his stern gaze, his eyes emanating an odd red glow.


    Sun Lihongs demeanor shifted subtly, her voice more earnest, I understand, Ill consult with them. Please bear with us for a moment.


    Sun Lihong promptly rose to her feet.


    If youll excuse me for a moment, Mr. Miles, she said.


    Of course, Miles replied with a hint of a smile.


    Sun Lihong quickly ushered her team away and dialed a number on her phone, seemingly reaching out to someone. Miles remained in his seat, offering them privacy while waiting patiently.


    Do you know how to extend the ghosts revival? Suddenly, a middle-aged man named Zhang Han approached, his voice tinged with anticipation.


    Miles looked at him, Myself? No, I dont. But this group does. If youre looking for answers, I suggest you ask them. If I had the knowledge, I wouldnt be bartering with them over a single ghost.


    His gaze shifted pointedly towards Sun Lihong and her team. Pressuring them, he knew, could aid his bargaining position. Should they deny Miles, they would be effectively crushing the survival hopes of the other ghost tamers. The repercussions of such a move remained uncertain.


    Youre right, you dont know, but they must, Zhang Han concurred, his eyes returning to the distant figure of Sun Lihong on her phone, a fervor burning within them.


    Boss, the situation has beplex, Sun Lihong reported into her phone. Miles has some information and proposed an additional condition of controlling the second ghost and extending its revival. Moreover, the other ghost tamers are also privy to this method. If we cant conclude the transaction today, Im afraid we might have trouble leaving this club.


    Sun Lihong could feel several piercing gazes on her back, the intensity of which sent a shiver down her spine. Despite the summer heat, she felt a chilling fear, her hairs standing on end. It was as if these people were ready to consume them whole.


    Understood, understood. Yes, I know what must be done, Sun Lihong nodded, responding to the voice on the other end of the line. The contents of the conversation remained a mystery to the onlookers.


    After ending the call, she returned to the table. I apologize for the dy, Mr. Miles, she said, resuming her seat.


    Miles, who had spent the time cleaning a baton and examining a custom handgun he brought, smiled, Not at all. How did your discussion go?


    Controlling the second ghost its aplex matter, Sun Lihong began. A hasty attempt results in a mortality rate of over ny percent.


    But there have been sessful cases, havent there? Miles asked, his gaze intent on her.


    Yes, there have been outliers, but those could be anomalies, Mr. Miles. As you should understand, not everyone is that fortunate, she rified.


    Im aware. Thats why I believe theres a crucial factor involved, something Im yet toprehend, Miles responded.


    Our boss has agreed to your additional conditions and the original acquisition n, Sun Lihong continued, However, in return, your single item isnt a sufficient bargaining chip.


    Are you implying that I should capture another ghost for you? If so, Id rather forfeit the hundred million, retorted Miles.


    No, we require your assistance in resolving a supernatural event for ourpany. Naturally, anyone capable of handling this event and confining the ghost can proceed with the transaction with our firm and gain the method to control the second ghost. That said, the sess rate isnt guaranteed, and there remains a substantial risk of failure, exined Sun Lihong.


    Heres the necessary information and mypanys business card. Feel free to reach out once youvepleted the task.


    That concludes our meeting for today. Well take our leave now, Sun Lihong dered.


    Before she could rise, Miles quickly interjected, Hold on.


    Is there something else? Sun Lihong queried.


    Miles stated, Not particrly. I just want to emphasize that if theres any deceit or dishonesty at y, itll cost you and your team your lives. Of course, if theres anything else youre concealing, you can disclose it now, and Ill turn a blind eye. However, if you choose to leave without offering a full exnation, youll have to face the consequences.


    His words visibly rattled Sun Lihong and her team. Although it may have seemed like an idle threating from a young man like Miles, his status as a ghost tamer imbued his words with an undeniable level of intimidation.


    You have our word, there wont be any deceit, Sun Lihong assured, her voice slightly wavering.


    Good, because if there is, Ill find its origin and ensure your entire lineage pays for it, Miles responded. Ive said my piece. Youre free to leave now.


    Well be on our way then.


    As if startled, Sun Lihong rapidly rose and made her exit, her team members scurrying behind her as though escaping.


    You can track them downter, right? Miles abruptly asked.


    Ethan nodded in agreement, Of course.


    Thats good to know. There are some things we need to be wary of, Milesmented, eyeing the information on the table.


    He casually skimmed through it.


    The location specified was a vige on the outskirts of Dachang City, devoid of any additional information.


    Do we really need to tackle this supernatural event? Ethan queried. Our circumstances arent exactly favorable. Theres a chance we might not return.


    I fully understand our situation and even suspect this could be some sort of scheme orchestrated by Sun Lihongspany, Miles said, pausing to look at the others. But


    His voice trailed off.


    You all heard the womans earlier remarks. If you wish to survive, we need to tackle this paranormal event and contain that ghost. Anyone interested in forming a team?


    Afraid now? Cockroach interjected, a note of scorn in his voice, You seemed pretty formidable earlier.


    Lets not put it that way. Im still just a child. Without an adults presence, I dont feel very secure, Miles retorted. Ill leave the details here. In three days, I n to visit this vige in the morning. Anyone who wishes to join me is wee. If you dont, I wont force you.


    Even though the odds of survival are slim, missing out on this opportunity will almost certainly result in death. Moreover, if someone seeds, the method to survive could be shared, provided everyone contributes their fair share.


    He needed others to partake in order to distribute the risk. He had a hunch that this paranormal event was far from ordinary. However, given his ess to the ghost domain, he wasnt concerned about more people getting involved and taking a piece of the pie. He managed to snatch the box from Ethan at the market, and he was confident in doing the same with others.


    In essence, anyone who got involved would be working on his behalf.


    Thats all I have to say. Today wasnt a wasted trip, and I wont overstay my wee. If fate allows, well see each other again in three days.


    With that, Miles stood up and departed without another word.


    Ethan followed suit, leaving the rest of the group behind at the club.


    However, their attention wasnt on Miles, but rather on the information hed left on the table.


    It was a beacon of hope for their survival.


    Should they gamble to extend the revival of the ferocious ghost, or remain here, passively awaiting their impending demise?
