Chapter 1 A Strange Sound

This strange sound attracted Yuan Muye's attention, and he began to move closer.

He saw several evil ghosts gathered together.

They were whispering secretively.

Yuan Muye restrained his aura, not revealing himself.

He vaguely heard one of the evil ghosts say, "We must be careful this time we infiltrate Jiang City, understand?"

"Don't worry, sir, we will be careful."

After they finished speaking, Yuan Muye saw these evil ghosts suddenly possess human bodies.

And seamlessly so.

Soon, the five or six evil ghosts sized up their new bodies, all seemingly satisfied.

The group of evil ghosts started walking forward. Yuan Muye originally intended to kill them, but considering that they were hiding in people's bodies to enter the city, there must be some ulterior motive.

So Yuan Muye silently followed.

The group went around to a part of Jiang City and climbed over a section of the city wall.

They encountered no resistance, indicating that these evil ghosts were familiar with the route.

They seemed very familiar with the area.

Yuan Muye followed closely behind. It was about eight o'clock in the evening, and it was completely dark. In the past, everyone would probably have gone to sleep by now.

But recently, the general environment in Jiang City had improved, and people had relaxed their vigilance a bit.

They would come out in the evening to do business or eat.

Yuan Muye followed the evil ghosts until he saw them enter a hotel.

He waited for a long time without any movement. Yuan Muye guarded the area for a couple of hours, wondering what these ghosts were up to.

Just as Yuan Muye was considering whether to act now or later, he suddenly saw someone enter the hotel.

The person looked somewhat familiar to Yuan Muye. He hadn't expected it to be someone from Director Wei's staff.

Although he wasn't completely sure.

It looked very much like him.

Yuan Muye also entered the hotel and went upstairs, then saw Director Wei's man enter the evil ghosts' room.

Yuan Muye was shocked by this discovery. He never imagined that Director Wei would collude with evil ghosts. It was simply unbelievable.

He hadn't expected such a high-ranking person to be hidden among the human race.

After waiting for about half an hour, the guy came out.

But Yuan Muye was still unsure if the guy was really Director Wei's man. After waiting a while, he decided to follow him and see if he was.

After following him for a while, he indeed saw the guy enter the exclusive guest house of the Supernatural Special Affairs Bureau.

It was basically confirmed that this guy, even if he wasn't Director Wei's man, was definitely someone from the Supernatural Special Affairs Bureau.

After waiting for a while, Yuan Muye returned to the hotel to see what the evil ghosts were planning to do.

But when he arrived at the hotel, he found that the people had long disappeared without a trace.

This made Yuan Muye feel troubled.

It seemed he still needed to ask that guy from the Supernatural Special Affairs Bureau to find out.

However, he didn't take any rash actions to avoid alerting the enemy.

Yuan Muye decided to talk to Director Chen about this first.

It wouldn't be too late to communicate with Director Chen first.

Thinking this, Yuan Muye went directly to Director Chen. He knew that Director Chen would definitely be awake at this hour.

When he met Director Chen, Yuan Muye briefly explained the situation. Director Chen's expression immediately turned serious after hearing it. He asked Yuan Muye, "Are you absolutely sure about what you saw?"

Yuan Muye replied, "Yes."

Director Chen naturally trusted Yuan Muye very much, but this matter was no small issue.

It had to be handled with caution, because if it wasn't done right, it could easily lead to accidents.

Yuan Muye naturally knew the importance of this matter as well, and nodded, saying, "Yes, I understand."

After he finished speaking, Director Chen said to Yuan Muye, "Mu Ye, leave this matter to me for now. I will monitor the person you mentioned. If there are any developments, I will contact you immediately."

"Okay."

Yuan Muye agreed.

With Director Chen handling this matter, Yuan Muye was naturally relieved and had nothing to worry about.

After leaving Jiang City, Yuan Muye returned to the Jade Stone World to rest.

The division between day and night in the Jade Stone World was particularly clear.

The only thing missing was the sun.

There was only day and night, but the temperature was basically stable, with no special circumstances.

After entering, Yuan Muye returned to the makeshift house and began his cultivation.

But soon after he sat down, Gungun found Yuan Muye, climbing onto his lap at some point.

However, Gungun didn't disturb Yuan Muye. On the contrary, it was very well-behaved, lying on Yuan Muye's lap.

After a night of cultivation, the Jade Stone World returned to daylight at six or seven o'clock the next morning.

This was the same as the normal world before Yuan Muye's rebirth.

The workers also got up early, and greeted Yuan Muye when they saw that he was also up early.

Yuan Muye responded to them.

At this time, a tall, strong man said to Yuan Muye, "Boss, this place of yours is really good. There's food and drink, and the day is normal. Can you tell me what this place is?"

The tall, strong man's eyes were filled with anticipation. Yuan Muye smiled and said, "I can't tell you now. I'll see later."

The tall, strong man's eyes flashed with a hint of disappointment when he heard Yuan Muye say this, but he didn't pursue the question.

He wouldn't easily tell others about such a good place, and besides, the space here was limited and couldn't accommodate many people at all.

After a brief conversation, Yuan Muye learned that the strong man's name was Han Peng.

And thanks to Gungun's efforts in recent days, the Jade Stone World had also begun to grow larger.

After dawn, Yuan Muye didn't stay here for too long, but went out because he had arranged to meet Yu Haijing.

Outside, it was still dark. It wasn't until ten o'clock that it became light.

Li Pangpang was probably too excited to sleep. He quickly found Yuan Muye and asked him to go to Jiang City earlier, in case Yu Haijing arrived early and had to wait.

Yuan Muye couldn't do anything about Li Pangpang's simping.

The two of them soon entered Jiang City.

"Fat Bro, which restaurant did you book?"

"Do you know Shengtian Hotel?"

Yuan Muye was stunned for a few seconds when he heard those words, then looked at him in confusion and said, "You actually spent so much money to book a meal there?"
