Mysterious Revival-Chapter 768 - 735 Meeting of the Person in Charge

```

It was just before ten in the morning when Yang Jian and Li Yang had already disembarked from the plane and arrived at Dahan City's airport.

There were no mishaps on this trip, everything was quite normal.

Yang Jian was carrying a body bag that doubled as a luggage bag, inside which were some commonly used items: bloodstained newspapers, a Ghost Candle, a substitute doll, two pieces of Ghost Porcelain, weapons he carried on his person, and some gold containers.

Of course, he also had a rusty and eerie Firewood Knife on his body.

He no longer had the red Ghost Candle with him, and he didn't bring the Ghost Child either.

This time it was just an investigation, not to face an S-level supernatural incident, so such ample preparation was, in Yang Jian's view, already sufficient.

If he really needed the Ghost Child, Yang Jian wouldn't mind summoning it from the Ghost Domain.

Compared to Yang Jian's full armament, Li Yang was much simpler, just carrying a backpack with several sets of clothing, a service pistol, and nothing else related to the supernatural.

After all, he was a newcomer.

When Yang Jian was a newcomer, he also had nothing—what he now possessed had been earned with his life on the line.

"Chief Yang, I looked over the situation in Dahan City last night; up to now, not a single supernatural incident has occurred. It's a very safe city. Logically, a city like this is unlikely to have issues. If there were, headquarters would have had files on it long ago," Li Yang said as he looked at the surging crowds of the airport.

"That's precisely what's weird. In a big city with such heavy human traffic, the probability of not a single supernatural incident occurring is too low, so that's why I want to investigate," Yang Jian casually found a reason to explain.

Li Yang said, "Maybe it's coincidental, survivorship bias."

"Don't ask so many questions. I don't care whether it's coincidence or not. Things will become clear after we have a look. For now, follow me and let's leave the airport by car," Yang Jian indicated, with no intention of dilly-dallying, ready to head straight to the coordinates.

The two prepared to leave the airport by taxi.

However, halfway through, an area cleared up ahead, and a group of men, seemingly bodyguards in suits, blocked the flow of people on both sides. In the middle were several alluring, mature-looking women holding flowers and an electronic sign that flickered with a few big characters.

"Welcome, Yang Jian."

Clearly, this was a reception team.

The leader was a young man in a suit and leather shoes, holding a gold cane, smoking a cigarette, and looking deathly ill, his complexion terrible as if he might die of sickness at any moment.

"Haha, I received a notification from headquarters that the famous Yang Jian would be visiting Dahan City today, so I specially got up early to welcome Chief Yang at the airport. I hope you won't mind my taking the initiative," the man said with a laugh, limping towards them.

"Chief Yang, it's a pleasure to meet you. I am Sun Rui, the person in charge of Dahan City. Today, I am honored to meet the legendary Ghost Eye. Please, take care of me in the future," the man said enthusiastically as he offered his hand.

"Sun Rui?" Yang Jian paused, then extended his gloved left hand to shake his.

He had also checked the information before coming.

Indeed, the person in charge of this city was Sun Rui, a master of two ghosts, codenamed Sick Ghost, Sun Rui.

However, the information was several months old and had not been updated. Regarding the real situation of Sun Rui, Yang Jian didn't know much, but according to the records, indeed it was the person in front of him without a doubt.

"Hello, hello."

Sun Rui then shook hands with Li Yang: "This brother looks new. May I know who you are…?"

"Don't mention it. My name is Li Yang, I'm Chief Yang's newcomer," Li Yang said somewhat reservedly.

Sun Rui smiled and said, "So you're one of Chief Yang's talented people. I'm looking forward to your guidance in the future."

He then gestured, "What are you all still standing around for? Why not give Chief Yang a warm welcome?"

Immediately.

Four or five glamorous women, who nobody knew where from, approached with enthusiastic smiles and bouquets of flowers.

"Welcome, Chief Yang, to Dahan City."

"Chief Yang is so young and handsome, I hope you will visit here often."

"Chief Yang, hello. This is a flower for you, hoping your visit here will be a delightful experience."

Soon, Yang Jian's hands were filled with two or three bouquets of flowers, with name cards attached to them leaving phone numbers.

To these women, they did not recognize Yang Jian nor knew about the supernatural circle; they only knew the person in front of them was an even bigger figure than President Sun.

Yang Jian, expressionless, was indifferent to these insincere flatteries and warm welcomes. He asked, "Where did you find these people from?"

"These are artists and stars from an entertainment company who haven't debuted yet, each can sing and dance, with high looks and good figures. After all, receiving Chief Yang at the airport can't be too shabby, right?"

Sun Rui laughed, "If Chief Yang likes, you can make friends with them. I believe with Chief Yang's charm, it's easy to win the affection of girls."

He spoke very directly, without any intention of covering up his intentions.

"Let me be frank. I'm not here to trouble you, just to investigate some matters. We can all get along without issues. So there's no need for such fervor. After all, we're only meeting for the first time, with no prior interaction, so there will be no conflicts. You can be at ease," Yang Jian stated.

```

Yang Jian handed the fresh flowers he was holding to Li Yang, then said,

Sun Rui was momentarily taken aback before laughing heartily, "Yang Jian, you're too serious. We're all colleagues here. As the person in charge of this city, it's only natural for me to show hospitality and give you a warm welcome. Otherwise, it would seem rather impolite. People who don't know might think you were offended by something I did."

Yang Jian looked at him and said, "There might be some rumors about me out there, but in reality, I'm quite easy to get along with."

"Of course, I trust Yang Jian's character. There's no one more reliable than Yang Jian when it comes to handling matters," Sun Rui nodded in agreement.

But in his heart, he was pondering secretly.

What did that mean?

Was it a warning to me?

Or does it imply that someone here has offended him, and Yang Jian came specially by plane to kill someone? He even brought along Li Yang, the blockhead.

If Yang Jian were to keep an eye on me, there would literally be nowhere to run.

After a brief moment of thought, Sun Rui smiled again and said, "This isn't the place to talk, Yang Jian. Come, let me take you to a nice place to sit. If there's anything you want to ask, feel free to do so. There's nothing in this city that I don't know about."

However, Yang Jian declined, "No need, if you could just show me around the city, that would be sufficient."

He could indeed ask Sun Rui for some information.

After all, he had been the person in charge here for a long time, seemingly the first one, unlike in Dachang City, where by the time it was Yang Jian's turn, he was already the third in line.

"Alright, then. The car is ready on my side, Yang Jian, this way please," Sun Rui said with a smile.

"Then I won't be polite," Yang Jian didn't refuse.

However, on their way, when he saw Sun Rui using a walking stick, limping along, Yang Jian couldn't help but ask, "Is there a problem with your leg?"

"Haha, no problem, just a limp. Does Yang Jian care about this?"

Yang Jian casually said, "Not particularly, I used to know someone with a limp too."

"And what happened to him?"

"He died later on."

Sun Rui was stunned for a moment before cheerfully passing his walking stick to an assistant and walking without a limp, "I'm certainly not a cripple, my leg is just not very nimble, I prefer not to walk too much, so I use a walking stick. Please don't get the wrong idea, Yang Jian."

With that, he walked normally again.

Yang Jian could observe his leg was indeed not very nimble, lifting it seemed to be a bit strenuous, but it was not actually crippled.

"If your leg is useless, I could take it off for you and replace it with a better one, if you can find a spare," he also offered some goodwill.

Being in someone else's territory, he didn't want to start any conflict with Sun Rui. There might be a chance he would need his help.

So, Yang Jian's attitude wasn't that bad.

Of course, if someone else came to his territory, then Yang Jian definitely wouldn't show a pleasant face.

Sun Rui said with a smile, "Yang Jian really has a sense of humor. But I thank you for your kind offer. My leg just isn't very nimble, I have no intention of taking it off just yet."

At this moment, he was feeling anxious inside.

Was Yang Jian interested in taking away his leg?

Soon enough,

Yang Jian and Li Yang rode in a luxury car, surrounded by bodyguards back and front, and drove into the city center.

The prosperity of this city far surpassed that of Dachang City.

The traffic was heavy, and there were many pedestrians on the streets.

Compared to the quietness of Dachang City, there was a stark contrast, but that was also because this city had never experienced supernatural events. It was likely that many people had realized this and were considering relocating to this city.

"This place you manage is much better than Dachang City," Yang Jian observed for a moment and said calmly.

"Luck, pure luck,"

Sun Rui said, "When headquarters assigned me to this city, I refused because such an important city was bound to have its fair share of issues. But I couldn't turn it down, so I had to bite the bullet. It turned out that after working here for so long, not a single unfortunate incident has happened. On the other hand, Feng Quan, who joined at the same time as me, was less fortunate since he disappeared shortly after taking charge of Dachang City."

"I heard he came back to life later, but I haven't seen him for a long time. I have no idea how he's doing now."

He brought up Feng Quan's matter and revealed through his words that he knew Feng Quan from before, being ghost controllers of the same batch.

"He's doing well and will join my team in Dachang City before long," said Yang Jian.

Sun Rui expressed surprise, "Really? That's great. Feng Quan is a very experienced veteran. If he joins your ranks, I believe it will be of great help to you in the future, especially since he has... Ghost Fog... Feng Quan, is a ghost controller who possesses Ghost Domain."

Ghost Fog is also a type of Ghost Domain.

It's just somewhat unconventional.

Although it might not compare to Yang Jian's Ghost Eye, having a ghost controller with Ghost Domain is still quite rare, not to mention Feng Quan controlled two ghosts.
