I did not experience a mysterious revival!

Chapter 69 Donghuang Zhong?

"It seems he really just got lucky. All my previous preparations and the resources I used to bribe Guo Fan have been wasted."

Seeing Lin Yuan, who showed no reaction whatsoever in the ghost realm, Jiang Shangbai's eyes flashed with anger. Then, he raised the dead man's foot, which was covered in livid spots, and stomped heavily on Lin Yuan's back.

Boom!

As the dull bell rang, Jiang Shangbai stood frozen in place, feeling as if his mind had been struck by a heavy blow.

The raised foot slammed down with momentum, but it wasn't the foot of a dead person with lividity that stepped down. The foot seemed to be suppressed and retracted the moment the bell rang.

Even the surrounding ghost realm dissipated at this moment.

Lin Yuan finally heard the noise behind him and immediately took a step forward, dodging Jiang Shangbai's kick. In his hand was the small ghost bell.

With a thud, Jiang Shangbai fell to the ground.

When he got up again, there were some fine lines around his eyes, as if he had suddenly aged a year, but he himself did not notice it at all.

Unlike his previous disdain, his face was now filled with horror, his gaze involuntarily falling on the ghost bell in Lin Yuan's hand. "Just now, was that the sound of this little bell? This bell... the bell from the Ghost Bell Tower?"

"You know quite a lot. It seems headquarters really is a sieve; information has absolutely no confidentiality within your circle of friends. By the way, you can call him Donghuang Zhong."

Lin Yuan said in a very serious tone.

Donghuang Zhong?

Jiang Shangbai was completely bewildered, clearly not understanding the meaning of the name. "Isn't it Ghost Bell? You named it? That's interesting, there really are people who give supernatural weapons their own names. Anyway, I acknowledge your strength now."

How could I not agree?

The Ghost Bell Tower is classified as an S-level paranormal event by Cao Yanhua, Wang Xiaoming, and others at headquarters.

Although he looked down on the two of them, he had to admit that at least in this respect, Wang Xiaoming and his group would not make any mistakes.

Before, I thought Lin Yuan was just a lucky guy who survived because Li Jun and Peng Anxiao risked their lives, but now Lin Yuan has even obtained the supernatural power of the Ghost Bell Tower. Does that need any further explanation?

He had personally experienced the feeling of being knocked unconscious by a heavy hammer, and he never wanted to experience it again.

"Really? Then thank you so much." Lin Yuan smiled, but the smile was cold.

Jiang Shangbai was furious, but dared not show it. "You still have to deal with the starving ghost incident, so I won't bother you any longer. I'll take my leave now."

"etc!"

Jiang Shangbai, who had already turned to leave, froze, annoyed, and said, "What else is there? There are many people in charge here, don't push your luck!"

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Lin Yuan was amused and laughed heartily.

Jiang Shangbai in front of me is simply too interesting. I don't dare to make a move, but I'm actually thinking of threatening him.

"What I meant was, weren't you testing my abilities? Now that the test is over, what position do you think I could hold in the WeChat Moments?"

Jiang Shangbai looked surprised and hesitant, then said, "If you have any ideas, I'll introduce you to President Fang when we return to Dajing City. Can I leave now?"

Lin Yuan waved his hand in agreement.

Jiang Shangbai breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly fled the place that had terrified him. But as soon as he came out, he saw Cao Yang standing with his arms crossed, looking at him with a half-smile.

He immediately composed himself and said seriously, "Why aren't you sleeping? What are you doing here?"

"Nothing much, it's just that the moon is really round tonight, so I came out to admire it. Are you also out to admire the moon?" Cao Yang asked with a smile.

Give me a damn head!

Jiang Shangbai glared at Cao Yang resentfully, and as he quickly left, he glanced at the sky. The sky was covered with dark clouds tonight, and there was hardly a moon.

Watching Jiang Shangbai's departing figure, Cao Yang's smile vanished, replaced by a thoughtful expression. "It seems Lin Yuan really did deal with the S-rank Ghost Bell Tower, and his strength has improved considerably. Otherwise, Jiang Shangbai wouldn't look like he suffered a great loss."

He knocked on Lin Yuan's door and came in after receiving permission.

"Can you guys just leave me alone for a bit? It's the middle of the night, and you're not exactly beautiful, yet you keep knocking on my door. Even if you're not dealing with the starving ghost, there's no need to come looking for me, is there?" Lin Yuan was speechless.

Cao Yang smiled and said, "I'm here on behalf of headquarters to have a talk with you."

"Are you sure you're representing the headquarters, not Cao Yanhua?" Lin Yuan asked irritably.

Cao Yang's face stiffened, and he said with surprise and doubt, "The vice minister holds a high position and wields great power. I am merely a local official, how could I be qualified to represent him? However, this matter was indeed arranged by the vice minister."

"Oh." Lin Yuan neither confirmed nor denied, and did not say anything more.

The uncle-nephew relationship between Cao Yang and Cao Yanhua was well hidden, but for Lin Yuan, who had seen the plot, it was as easy to see as the answer to an open-book exam.

Cao Yang hesitated and dared not ask any more questions, but in doing so, he was instantly at a disadvantage in terms of momentum.

Looking at Lin Yuan's nonchalant demeanor, he thought to himself, "No wonder he's the kind of person who can make Jiang Shangbai suffer. No wonder my uncle wanted me to recruit Lin Yuan into headquarters. But... does he even know about my relationship with my uncle?"

Doubts arise from concerns.

If you have concerns, you lose your psychological advantage.

But what needs to be said still needs to be said; otherwise, taking the initiative to speak up for Lin Yuan at the meeting would be a waste of effort.

Then Cao Yang began to talk about the powers and responsibilities of the person in charge, focusing on the benefits. He was very enthusiastic in promoting the idea, which was admirable.

Cao Yang had been talking until his mouth was dry and he was about to stop to drink some water when he saw that Lin Yuan was already dozing off.

Is he treating his explanation like a lullaby?

Cao Yang was speechless for a moment, but then he laughed again. "Lin Yuan, I'm getting more and more curious about you. After all, it's been a long time since I've met someone as interesting as you."

"Let's not go for it. I only hope that some beautiful women will be curious about me. Men are out of the question. By the way, I heard that if you join headquarters, they'll give you beautiful female operators. Is that true?" Lin Yuan stretched and asked casually.

Cao Yang narrowed his eyes and said, "If it's true, you'll join headquarters?"

"Who knows? Let's wait and see."

Lin Yuan was so slippery that Cao Yang was both amused and exasperated. "Alright, I got what you were thinking. I'll go report to the deputy minister and try to arrange a stunning beauty for you. I'm off."

Lin Yuan waited a while longer to make sure no one would disturb him before lying down on the bed to rest.

Headquarters acted quickly; before dawn, another batch of supplies was delivered by plane, the most important of which was the ghost candle that Lin Yuan had mentioned.

But when Cao Yanhua delivered the resources, Lin Yuan saw someone who shouldn't have been there at all:

Old Qin!!!
