I boarded the plane.
Zhou Xiaomeng complained, "Headquarters didn't provide any information and just sent us to Yunli City to deal with Tianji. I have a feeling this is a bit unreliable."
Li Yunheng said, "This mission involves four people, including Qiao Xinyuan. After we meet up with Qiao Xinyuan in Yunli City, we can ask him for information. If he doesn't know much either, then it will be a real problem."
Zhou Xiaomeng sighed, "I've heard that Tianji is a very powerful Ghost Tamer. I'm worried that there might be casualties on this mission."
"If you can't beat them, just run away, right? Shen Jiliang said that himself," Li Yunheng joked with a smile.
"Did you know that Ghost Tamer named Qiao Xinyuan before? What was his temperament like? Was he easy to get along with?" Hu Jiu asked Li Yunheng.
Li Yunheng shook his head. "Regardless of his personality, just avoid getting into conflicts."
At this moment, Zhou Xiaomeng yawned. "Everyone should get some rest. It'll be a while before we arrive in Yunli City, so it's best to make sure you're well-rested."
After saying that, she took out an eye mask and earplugs from her bag. Rather than engaging in awkward conversation, it would be better to take a nap.
Hu Jiu also carried a bag, but it was almost empty. His belongings were kept in his alternate dimension; the bag was just a cover.
Time flies, and in the early hours of the morning, the plane arrived at Yunli City Airport.
The moon is bright in the sky, and there are not a cloud in the sky. The weather is excellent tonight.
After the plane came to a smooth stop, the three of them disembarked and saw a man with others waiting for them at the exit not far away.
The people standing at the back were all wearing Headquarters uniforms, so it was clear that Qiao Xinyuan was leading them.
"Welcome everyone." Before Hu Jiu and the other two could step forward, Qiao Xinyuan walked over with a smile, "I am Qiao Xinyuan. Headquarters has already given the order, and I will be working with you on missions from now on."
"Hello!"
After a few brief pleasantries and introductions, Hu Jiu and the other two quickly got down to business.
Qiao Xinyuan said, "Our target, Tianji, is currently over 400 kilometers away from here. It would take some time to drive there. Do you all plan to act immediately, or rest first and recharge your energy?"
"It's so far, do we really have to drive there?" Zhou Xiaomeng frowned. She was already tired from flying, and now she had to endure several hours of bumpy driving. It was so annoying.
"If you're not driving, you can choose to walk," Qiao Xinyuan said with utmost seriousness.
Zhou Xiaomeng twitched the corner of her mouth. "Are you kidding me? Why do I feel like you're being sarcastic?"
"No, I'm not joking!" Qiao Xinyuan shook his head. "You have no idea about the situation in Yunli City. Tianji and the Chu Family are entrenched here, and they've set up many Supernatural traps and alarms."
"If we don't follow the designated route and wander around aimlessly, we're likely to run into traps. It might not cause any real danger, but it will definitely alert the enemy. However, if you can use the Ghost Domain to move everyone over 400 kilometers together, then disregard what I said."
Zhou Xiaomeng's face showed surprise. "The situation has actually deteriorated to this extent?"
Qiao Xinyuan's expression was grave. "Yunli City is actually alright, but the Chu Family's headquarters is located outside the city, and that's where the real danger lies, a place fraught with peril."
Li Yunheng asked, "Tell me in detail what the dangers are?"
Qiao Xinyuan pondered for a moment, "There are Ghost Slaves wandering around the Chu Family's territory. These are Ghost Tamer by the Chu Family's ghost tamers after they kill people, who are then transformed into Ghost Slaves to guard the family's land. If outsiders dare to trespass, they will be killed immediately."
"The Chu Family's territory is also full of traps. If you don't take the special safe route, even members of the Chu Family might die inside, and there's no way to save them..."
As Qiao Xinyuan described the situation, Zhou Xiaomeng and Li Yunheng's expressions grew increasingly grave.
Hu Jiu suddenly said, "The person in charge of Yunli City should also be Chu Family, right?"
Qiao Xinyuan nodded. "That's right, although that guy doesn't have the surname Chu, he is indeed a lackey of the Chu Family."
Zhou Xiaomeng was startled. "Then hasn't our arrival here already alerted the enemy and made them aware of it?"
"Don't worry, Headquarters has made thorough preparations and has dispatched two additional teams in advance to disrupt the enemy's line of sight," Qiao Xinyuan explained briefly, reassuring Zhou Xiaomeng.
"In that case, to avoid disrupting Headquarters' arrangements, let's not rest and set off immediately!" Hu Jiu said.
Li Yunheng agreed, "The news of our team's entry into Yunli City shouldn't be kept secret for long. Now we can take advantage of the information gap and launch a surprise attack, catching them off guard!"
Seeing that her teammates all agreed, Zhou Xiaomeng could only say, "Alright, any more rest would be a waste of time. Luckily, I slept the whole way on the plane."
"By the way, when we go to find Tianji, we hope we don't encounter any mishaps like stepping into traps or getting lost."
"Absolutely not!" Qiao Xinyuan said firmly, "Don't Neglect my codename!"
The four got into a dilapidated black sedan filled with Supernatural atmosphere. It must be a Ghost Vehicle, from a Supernatural Fierce Ghost Parking Lot that Headquarters had taken in.
Using the Ghost Domain as a means of transportation would certainly be more efficient, but no one is willing to make such a huge, but ultimately insignificant, expenditure before the battle even begins.
Qiao Xinyuan sat in the driver's seat, stepped on the gas, and sped off into the distance.
As he drove, he spoke, "How confident are you in this operation? To be honest, the more I investigate the Chu Family, the more terrifying I find them. Tianji, as their leader, must be extremely difficult to deal with."
"Let's do our best," Li Yunheng replied. "The key issue is that we don't know what kind of monster Tianji is controlling, or what his specific abilities are, not to mention that he's lived longer than us and probably has a wealth of combat experience."
"How many Ghost Tamers does the Chu Family have in total?" Hu Jiu asked.
Qiao Xinyuan shook his head. "I don't know, but there are definitely quite a few. If these Ghost Tamers join forces, even if they are individually weak, they will definitely have a significant impact on us when they are together. However, Headquarters said they have another plan, and we only need to deal with Tianji."
Li Yunheng said carefully, "Based on the current information, one of the Fierce Ghost controlled by Tianji is codenamed 'Magic Mirror,' which may possess the ability to replicate."
"This one ability alone is enough to send chills down our spines. To what extent can he replicate? Can he replicate an exact replica of a person? Or can he replicate a certain ability? And how can we defend ourselves?"
Hu Jiu has the right to speak on this matter. If the Magic Mirror and the Mirage Ghost have similar copying abilities, then the most effective way to deal with it is... Supernatural Item!
