Right now, he didn't have any other options.

If these people were really sent by headquarters, and he just let them leave, headquarters definitely wouldn't send anyone else. The consequences of being isolated and helpless were unimaginable.

The people below were muttering, not knowing what they were saying. After a long while, the man who had turned his head looked at Yuan Mu Ye and said, "Alright, I'll go in."

The man's posture showed that he was their leader.

Yuan Mu Ye didn't ask anyone to open the gate, but went down himself to welcome them.

No matter what, he had to show the proper courtesy.

After opening the city gate and letting the man in, Yuan Mu Ye immediately closed it.

"I'm really sorry, we were forced to do this. Too many evil ghosts have been mixing into Yun City recently. I hope you can understand." Yuan Mu Ye explained to the man.

The man glanced at Yuan Mu Ye coldly and said, "If you were really so careful, you wouldn't have let evil ghosts in."

Hearing this, Yuan Mu Ye was immediately unhappy. This man was relying on his status to say such unpleasant things!

If it were an ordinary person, Yuan Mu Ye would have already couldn't help but argue.

"This is our oversight. It's mainly that those evil ghosts are too high-level. They possess living people, and we can't detect them at all." Yuan Mu Ye said truthfully.

He originally thought that as long as he explained the reason, the man would understand them. But he didn't expect the man to directly say, "That just means you're not strong enough."

Yuan Mu Ye couldn't help but roll his eyes at the man. However, the man was so arrogant because he had the ability. He had already reached the middle stage of Shuntian, which was much higher than Yuan Mu Ye.

"You're right. Otherwise, we wouldn't have requested support from headquarters." Yuan Mu Ye still replied with a smile.

Since the man was a guest, Yuan Mu Ye definitely couldn't argue with him right now.

Yuan Mu Ye took the man to the lounge and asked people to bring pastries and tea.

He did this very well.

After the man ate the pastries and drank the tea, he looked at Yuan Mu Ye and asked, "How do you want me to prove my identity?"

"You are people from the Supernatural Bureau, you should have the mark of the Supernatural Bureau, right?"

Yuan Mu Ye didn't believe that so many of them had lost all their marks.

The man looked at him calmly and said, "What if I said I didn't?"

"Don't joke with me. How could you not have one?" Yuan Mu Ye's tone was still very calm at this time.

The man didn't speak. After a long while, he took out a token from his body and placed it in front of Yuan Mu Ye.

"Is this okay?"

Yuan Mu Ye looked at the token. It was black and had three words printed on it: Ling Yi Ju (Supernatural Bureau).

Because the three words were plated with a layer of gold, they looked particularly eye-catching.

Yuan Mu Ye had never seen such a token before and looked at the man curiously, asking, "Why haven't I seen such a token after being in the Supernatural Bureau for so long?"

"People of your low level certainly don't have the opportunity to see this token. Only high-level people in the Supernatural Bureau have it." The man looked a little proud when he said this.

This made Yuan Mu Ye even more unhappy. What did he mean by low-level people?

They were all from the Supernatural Bureau, so who was nobler than whom?

Yuan Mu Ye still couldn't be sure if this was a token from the Supernatural Bureau. In the end, he had no choice but to call Director Chen to inquire about this matter.

Although he wasn't sure if Director Chen knew, Director Chen's status was relatively high.

The call was quickly connected, and Director Chen's greetings came from the phone.

"Deputy Director Yuan, how are things going over there?"

Yuan Mu Ye sighed helplessly and said, "Director Chen, it's a long story. I don't even know what to do."

"Ah? You're calling me so late. Is there something you need my help with?" Director Chen asked straightforwardly.

Director Chen also knew about the situation in Yun City, but he couldn't leave Jiang City.

He originally wanted to send someone over, but Yuan Mu Ye didn't agree, saying that evil ghosts had already mixed into Yun City, and Jiang City might also have them. Therefore, the top priority was to protect the stability of Jiang City.

Yun City was important, but Jiang City was even more important.

"Yes, I want to ask you something."

Yuan Mu Ye inquired about the token.

Director Chen was silent for a while before finally saying, "I have heard that headquarters uses tokens for entry and exit. Although I have been there before, I have never seen one. You have really stumped me. But speaking of which, why don't you directly contact the people at headquarters?"

Yuan Mu Ye sighed helplessly, "We have contacted them, but we haven't been able to reach them yet."

It was quite upsetting to have something happen at such a critical time, but there was nothing they could do.

Besides waiting, they had to find their own way to prove the identities of these people.

Director Chen was stunned and said, "Don't you even know the names of the people sent by headquarters?"

"No, we only received a message saying that people had been sent down."

Yuan Mu Ye was quite depressed about this.

If headquarters had made the arrangements clearer, they wouldn't be so at a loss.

Director Chen thought for a moment and said, "I do have a way. When I went to headquarters before, I met someone. He told me that their high-level people have a secret code. As long as he can match it, he is a person from headquarters."

Then, Director Chen told Yuan Mu Ye the secret code.

Yuan Mu Ye happily thanked him and hung up the phone.

The man saw that he had finished the call and asked indifferently, "How is it? Did you find out anything?"

"No, but I have other ways to verify your identity." Yuan Mu Ye stared into the man's eyes and said.

Speaking of which, he was still very nervous at this time. If the man in front of him couldn't match the secret code, there would inevitably be a big battle.

The man's cultivation was so much higher than his. If they really fought, he wouldn't have any advantage.

"Oh? Tell me!" the man said with some curiosity.

Yuan Mu Ye hesitated for a moment before saying, "One, two, three, four, five, I want to fight a tiger."

The man was stunned, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes. After a long while, he reacted and looked at Yuan Mu Ye suspiciously, "How do you know our internal secret code?"

"What's the next sentence?" Yuan Mu Ye was a little excited that the man knew it was the secret code. If he could match it, then he wouldn't have so much trouble.

"I am the tiger."

The man blurted out.

Hearing this, Yuan Mu Ye finally let go of the heart that was hanging in the air, because the man had matched the secret code.
