Shangjing City.

In the minimalist office, Zuo Qing walked in with a report in her hand.

"How's the fifth reserve team going?" Ye Fan asked, looking up when he heard the knock on the door.

Zuo Qing's expression was slightly somber. He took out a research report and said, "Commander Ye, the matter in Suzhou City has been resolved, but... there is a problem."

Upon hearing this, Ye Fan put down his pen.

"what is the problem?"

Zuo Qing handed the research institute's report to Ye Fan and explained, "The mysterious [Void Nightmare Beast] that appeared in Gusu City."

"It possesses extremely high intelligence and a strong control over the [Nightmare Domain]. It is completely impossible to resist dreams with mental power."

"Previous research findings have been misled, and this Nightmare Beast's strength has already reached the Klein level."

Upon hearing this, Ye Fan immediately picked up the research report and began to read it, his eyes flashing with doubt.

"Klein Realm, that fifth reserve team..."

"This is the mission report uploaded by Lin Qiye." Zuo Qing handed the mission report over again.

"After the entire Fifth Reserve Team entered Suzhou City, they all fell into a dream."

"But later, for some reason, the Nightmare Beast's Nightmare Domain was suddenly lifted. Two of them stayed in Suzhou City and there were no abnormalities."

Ye Fan listened while staring at the documents in his hand, his brows furrowing slightly.

"So, the Nightmare Beast ran away on its own without harming anyone?"

Zuo Qing nodded and continued, "There was only one person who was conscious in that city."

"Who?"

"Han Shaoyun has become the agent of the gods, the agent of that person in Cangnan City."

boom!

Ye Fan slammed his hand on the table, his eyes gleaming with disbelief.

That deity of Cangnan...

"What did Han Shaoyun say?"

Zuo Qing shook his head and said helplessly, "It seems that the deity behind him does not allow him to reveal his identity, so he hasn't said anything."

Ye Fan remained silent for a long while before letting out a slow sigh.

"Commander, Han Shaoyun has become a divine agent; we need to make arrangements for him..."

Ye Fan suddenly raised his hand to interrupt, "Let him continue to guard Suzhou City."

He could understand Han Shaoyun; if he wanted to go further, he wouldn't have waited until now to reveal his identity as the agent of the gods.

Perhaps the only solace for the guilt he feels towards his teammates is to protect Suzhou.

Ye Fan thought for a moment and continued, "Have the Phoenix Squad secretly investigate the Nightmare Beast. I have a feeling that someone is plotting something behind the scenes."

"Okay, Commander."

"What's the situation with the fifth reserve team?"

Zuo Qing took out Jia Lan's application to join the team and said, "Lin Qiye submitted applications to join the team for Baili Tuming, An Qingyu, Cao Yuan, and Jiang Ye last time."

"But Baili Tuming did not receive a notification of approval. I told him that I had not received any application to join the team."

"Commander Ye, did it go directly into your hands?"

Ok?

Ye Fan looked puzzled and shook his head. "No, I only have An Qingyu's, Cao Yuan's, and Jiang Ye's. Did I miss one?"

"Impossible, I've looked several times," Zuo Qing said definitively.

Ye Fan took out the team application from the drawer and flipped through it, but Baili Tuming's application was not among them.

Suddenly, he had a vague feeling that something was wrong.

Zuo Qing then guessed, "Could it be that the Baili family stopped them? After all, Baili Xin is about to retire, and they probably want Baili Tuming to go home and inherit the family business instead of joining."

Ye Fan nodded slightly, acknowledging the possibility, but still said...

"You should still check it out; I have a feeling something's not right."

"Okay, Commander."

……

A private plane weaves through the clouds above Suzhou, its engine roaring.

The aircraft's interior is luxuriously decorated and extremely spacious, furnished with genuine leather sofas, a long business table, and a bar.

A beautiful young woman named Xiao Xu, dressed in a flight attendant uniform, respectfully placed two freshly mixed cocktails on the long table next to the sofa.

"Young Master, Mr. Jiang, please enjoy your meal." Xiao Xu smiled sweetly and said gently to the two people sitting on the sofa.

Jiang Ye's eyes remained normal. He glanced at the cocktail on the table, picked it up, shook it, and took a small sip.

As for the medicine inside... sorry, it has no effect on me.

Baili Pangpang also took a sip, then took out a lucky charm from his pocket, on which were engraved very delicate characters.

"Brother Jiangye, look at this, isn't it nice?"

Jiang Ye looked over upon hearing this, "When did you get this peace charm?"

He remembered that Baili Pangpang had been in Suzhou City for the past two days and hadn't visited the Taoist temple.

I've only met Molly twice in private.

Baili Pangpang chuckled foolishly, "Molly heard it was my dad's birthday and asked for it for me. She's so thoughtful."

Jiang Ye: "..."

Why does this guy seem to be showing off his love?

He shook his head slightly and continued drinking his cocktail.

Meanwhile, Baili Pangpang was talking to himself.

“Brother Jiang Ye, Molly also promised me that she would come to Guangzhou and Shenzhen on my father’s birthday to witness the glorious moment when I take over Baili Group.”

"From now on, I will definitely treat Molly like a queen and spoil her rotten."

As Jiang Ye listened to Baili Pangpang's vision for the future, he felt a deep sadness even though Baili Pangpang seemed so happy.

This may be the sorrow of a prophet, just like knowing the fate of Cangnan's disappearance back then.

Only those who don't know can truly appreciate the joy of the present moment.

He didn't disturb Baili Pangpang's excitement and happiness, but listened quietly to his joy.

Baili Pangpang grinned foolishly and reached out to pat Jiang Ye on the shoulder.

"Brother Jiang Ye, once I inherit the Baili Group, you can pick and choose from the forbidden items inside."

"In addition, brother, I'm arranging the best presidential suite for you. If you want a beautiful woman, just let me know, and she'll be sent over immediately."

Baili Pangpang revealed a lecherous look in his eyes.

Jiang Ye couldn't help but smile, touching the ring as he said, "I'll just go and get the goods myself. You don't mind, do you?"

Baili Pangpang looked at the ring on Jiang Ye's hand and recalled the scene when they were purchasing supplies in Xinganling, and the ring directly took away the entire supermarket.

But remembering Jiang Ye's metaphysics in the dream, he immediately waved his hand and said, "It's okay, we'll keep our brotherhood in our hearts, I'll give it to you!"

Jiang Ye was speechless for a moment. "The landlord's foolish son has become a landlord, but he's still just as foolish."

Baili Pangpang scratched his head and smiled sweetly.

As he was laughing, he suddenly felt dizzy. He reached out to support himself, his brows furrowed tightly.

He glanced at the cocktail on the table, then suddenly looked up at the smiling but silent Xiao Xu, "You...drugged me?!"

Snapped!

Baili Pangpang used his last bit of strength to knock the cocktail out of Jiang Ye's hand.

"Brother Jiangye, don't drink!"

"I'm sorry, young master, Mr. Jiang," Xiao Xu said apologetically, "I can't let young master return to Guangzhou and Shenzhen alive."

"As for Mr. Jiang, Young Master Jing would like to make friends with you. If this approach has offended you, please forgive him."
