A bizarre resurrection: I, Yang Jian, am bound by a contract with the school beauty!

Upon hearing those five words, all sound from the other end of the communicator disappeared.

Even the recorder in the command vehicle stopped writing.

The Peach Blossom Spring Project.

When the ghost paintings erupted, they almost swallowed up half of the core cities of the United States.

That incident was too bizarre.

There is a world depicted in the ghost painting.

Those who go inside will be left inside the painting.

There are more than just ghosts inside.

There were also some figures that shouldn't be there.

At that time, Li Yao, the first ghost tamer in Kyushu, went there personally and finally stopped the spread of that strange tale by being locked inside a ghost painting.

Qin Taotao had personally witnessed some things inside the ghost painting.

They discovered a startling truth in the painting: it was a ghost painting, not simply a vengeful spirit.

It's more like a door, a door prepared for a certain plan.

The name of that project was Peach Blossom Spring.

The headquarters manager lowered his voice, "You mean, Luo Qian is involved in Project Peach Blossom Spring?"

Qin Taotao said, "I can't be sure."

"But the ghost paintings come from the previous era."

"The Peach Blossom Spring Project is also something left behind by people from the previous era."

"Now Luo Qian has appeared, also claiming to be a member of the old party from the previous era."

"If their goals are the same, then what they call the end of the supernatural might not be the elimination of ghosts."

"Instead, they are looking for a new place to settle their world."

"They even consider our world as their foundation."

These words were like a knife, piercing straight into everyone's hearts.

Lin Yue's face turned pale.

She suddenly understood why Qin Taotao didn't believe Luo Qian.

It wasn't because Luo Qian possessed Zhou Heng's corpse.

It's not because of his origins, but because of his background.

The previous era is gone.

But would someone who survives a destroyed world truly wholeheartedly help another world?

If the Peach Blossom Spring Project was truly successful, were the people from the previous world already trapped inside the painting?

If they fail, will they continue searching for the next Shangri-La?

The supernatural is now making a comeback in this world.

The marks of the mysterious lake are found all over the place.

Ghostly drawings have appeared.

Changqing Cemetery has also awakened.

All of this is like threads scattered in the darkness; no one knows how these threads will eventually twist into.

The head of headquarters said in a deep voice, "Assuming your guess is correct."

"The remnants of the old era's consciousness are awakening."

"There might be more than just Luo Qian."

"Their ultimate goal may be related to the Peach Blossom Spring Project."

"They want to use the real world to release what is trapped in the painting or the ghost lake."

Is that what you mean?

Qin Taotao nodded.

"Yes."

"That's the worst-case scenario."

Someone inside the command vehicle instinctively gasped.

In the worst-case scenario, it's often not that ghosts kill people.

Instead, someone opened the door and let in the souls of an entire era.

Those people would be fine if they were just ordinary dead souls.

Once released.

The real world simply cannot withstand it.

The meeting at headquarters seemed to escalate immediately.

Qin Taotao could hear more footsteps.

One file after another was retrieved.

Ghost drawing.

The Mysterious Lake.

Changqing Cemetery.

These previously scattered paranormal events are now placed on the same table.

There is no direct evidence linking them.

The scents are so similar.

None of them are things that naturally arose in this era; they are more like bones left behind by a broken world.

The headquarters manager asked, "What solutions do we have now?"

No one answered.

This is a very serious problem.

Luo Qian is an S-class.

Changqing Cemetery is suspected to be classified as an S-level site.

The drawing is rated S.

The mysterious lake is even more indefinable.

The current Kyushu lacks the resources to directly confront an S-class power.

Even with the full strength of the nation, all we can do is impose lockdowns, delays, and quarantines.

If you were to deal with a demon tamer from the old era who had truly reached the pinnacle, you would have almost no chance of winning.

Unless Li Yao can return from the Ghost Painting, Li Yao is the first Ghost Master in Kyushu. She was the first to come into contact with the supernatural, and after mastering the Ghost Painting, her strength is closest to that of a true S-rank.

If she hadn't voluntarily stayed inside the Ghost Painting back then, the Ghost Painting incident would never have been stopped.

The problem is that the ghost drawing technique cannot be improved.

Time has passed, and Kyushu has tried countless methods.

No one could bring Li Yao back, and no one could be sure she was still alive.

Someone whispered, "If Li Yao were here, we might still have a way."

Another voice immediately refuted this.

"The ghost drawing app won't open."

"Even if it's opened, it will be a second S-class disaster."

"You can't gamble now."

Inside the carriage, Qin Taotao suddenly spoke.

"No."

The situation at headquarters quieted down.

Qin Taotao said, "There is one person who can break through the Ghost Painting."

Everyone seemed to think of that name at the same time.

Yang Jian.

The person who was once invincible in the strange world and then entered the depths of the strange lake.

He is currently the only person who has actually come into contact with the core of the Ghost Lake and is still alive and active.

He was also the only person Qin Taotao couldn't see through.

If someone can bring Li Yao back from the ghost painting, if someone can see through the Peach Blossom Spring Plan, if someone can determine whether Luo Qian is a trap or not.

That leaves only Yang Jian.

But problems still lie ahead.

Yang Jian is not in the real world; he remains in the bizarre world.

He did not return in order to suppress that eerie lake.

The head of headquarters said in a deep voice, "We can't get in touch with Yang Jian."

"The passage to the strange world is unstable."

"The fact that you were able to come back last time was part of the premise of this bizarre world."

"It's too risky to let you in now."

Qin Taotao looked at the communicator, her tone calm.

"It wasn't an accident."

"I am now the manager of the Ghost Post Office."

"As long as there is a mark of the Ghost Lake, I can try to locate it with the help of the Ghost Post Office."

Someone at headquarters immediately refuted this.

"This is just theory."

"Places where strange events have occurred in the real world all bear the mark of the Ghost Lake, but the mark is very faint."

"If you try to enter the eerie world through the mark, it's like voluntarily sinking into the eerie lake."

"You might not come back."

Qin Taotao said, "I know."

"You still went even knowing that?"

"Yes."

"Qin Taotao, you are one of the most important Ghost Tamers in Kyushu right now."

"You can't take unnecessary risks."

"This is not a time to be casual."

Qin Taotao's voice suddenly became a few decibels higher.

"If what Luo Qian said is true, the old party from the previous era has already begun to take action."

"If what he said is false, then he is an S-class disaster hidden in Donghai City."

"Whichever it is, we must know the truth."

"Headquarters has no answer right now."

"There are no answers in the ghost paintings either."

"The answer can only be found deep within the mysterious lake."

"At Yangjian's place."

There was silence on the other end of the communicator.

Many people understand that she is right, but being right doesn't mean they can accept it.

Qin Taotao is one of the strongest combat forces in Kyushu right now.

If she goes missing, Kyushu's ability to handle paranormal events will drop to a whole new level.

But not going is tantamount to closing your eyes and waiting to die.

Luo Qianneng et al.

Changqing Cemetery can wait.

But the eerie won't wait.

The world doesn't give people time to prepare.

Qin Taotao stood up.

"I'm not going to risk my life."

"I'll go find Yang Jian and ask him for a solution."

"If he can come back, many problems will become simpler."

"If he can't come back, at least we need to know what he saw in the depths of the Ghost Lake."

The head of headquarters spoke in a cold voice.

"Headquarters disagrees."

Qin Taotao looked at the fog outside the window.

"Then record this as a violation of orders."
