If Qin Feng still maintained some composure, Chen Hao's behavior was downright arrogant and vicious—insulting and intimidating, like a villain in a novel who uses his power to bully others.
The entire room fell into stunned silence. Everyone knew Chen Hao and Li Zifeng had never gotten along. Usually, they just exchanged some sarcastic remarks, but no one expected Chen Hao to be so vicious today, tearing off all pretenses like they had a deadly feud.
Li Zifeng's face turned red with anger and his whole body trembled. He had never suffered such humiliation before. He stepped forward a few steps and pointed a trembling finger at Chen Hao.
"Fuck you, don't think just because your father's the chairman of Fuli Group that I won't dare touch you. Let me tell you, your family is far worse off than mine."
"Hmph! That's all you've got? Just relying on your family's power to swagger around? In my eyes, you're nothing but a spoiled loser."
...
"Ruo Bing, long time no see!"
With the room turned into a battlefield of insults between Chen Hao and Li Zifeng, Qin Feng took the chance to sit beside Tang Ruobing.
The girls who had been getting restless suddenly calmed down.
"Long time no see, Qin Feng!" Tang Ruobing looked at his handsome face with complicated feelings. Back in high school, he had been her ideal crush. After all, which girl hasn't had a crush? Especially on a handsome and sunny guy like Qin Feng.
Even now in college, she often thought of him. No one who had pursued her compared to his good looks, so she naturally rejected others.
Usually, meeting Qin Feng would make her happy. But now, facing a major crisis, she was scared and had no mood for romance. She looked utterly depressed.
"Tang Ruobing, you don't look well. Are you sick or is something wrong at home?" Qin Feng asked with concern, noticing her pale complexion.
She bit her lip and thought back to yesterday's ordeal. Fear flickered in her eyes, but she decided not to tell him to avoid dragging him into trouble.
"N-nothing…"
Outside on the hotel street,
"Ah!!"
"Help!!!"
"Ghosts!!!"
Amidst the panic and heart-wrenching screams, a pale, colorless eerie hue rapidly spread toward the hotel.
Everything it passed—streets, buildings, cars, even people—turned pale, like a black-and-white photo from the 50s or 60s.
Oppressive, lifeless, as if the whole world lost its colors.
Inside the private room, Qin Feng was about to speak when he heard the system notification for absorbing Paranormal Energy.
[Ding! You have absorbed 300 Paranormal Energy, converted into 300 Detention Points!]
He suddenly stood up, his expression grim.
At the same time, an anomaly occurred.
The room's lights flickered unstably, buzzing with a crackling sound—just like when Qin Feng once controlled the ghost hand.
"Huh? Is the hotel's light acting up?"
Someone noticed the flickering and commented.
"No way, this is Jiangcheng city's top KTV hotel. Could it be shoddy construction?"
"Heh, who knows? Corruption is everywhere."
...
Suddenly, all the lights went out.
The room was sealed and plunged into darkness.
"Damn, it really went out."
"Better not come to this KTV again."
Some guys grumbled and turned on their phone lights, preparing to open the door.
The fierce quarrel between Chen Hao and Li Zifeng stopped.
"Wait!!" Qin Feng suddenly shouted, stopping the guys trying to open the door.
"W-what's up?"
The guys were stunned. Many in the room also froze.
Only Chen Hao seemed to realize something, his face changing as he hurried over to Qin Feng.
"I'll admit it now—I'm the Jiangcheng city Ghost Tamer in charge."
"There's a Paranormal Incident inside the hotel. Everyone, don't act rashly. Follow my orders."
Qin Feng said solemnly. A Paranormal Incident might mean death for all except him.
"R-really?"
"There's a Paranormal Incident here?"
"You're kidding, right?"
Many doubted it. Mainly, they didn't believe the blackout was due to a Paranormal Incident.
Tang Ruobing, however, stood up suddenly with surprise upon hearing Qin Feng's claim to be a Ghost Tamer.
Before she could speak, a taunting voice interrupted.
"Heh, just because you say you're a Ghost Tamer, does that make it true?"
Li Zifeng, standing by the door, scoffed.
"I've seen Ghost Tamers. They all have certain traits and carry a chilling, oppressive aura. You're nothing like them. Don't bluff us."
"Hmph! You may have learned how to talk your way around, but out in society, if you can't do anything else, don't think you can fool me. Everything about you reeks of scams and tricks."
His words made the others look at Qin Feng differently.
Everyone knew Li Zifeng was a rich second generation, so they trusted his judgment more.
Even Tang Ruobing hesitated.
