As soon as the meeting began, Deputy Minister Cao Yanhua lavished Yang Jian with praise. It was as if this meeting had become Yang Jian's personal stage, meant to show him off before everyone else. Every word revealed Cao Yanhua's appreciation for him.

He was not some naive hothead who would be deeply moved by a few compliments and then pledge his loyalty without hesitation.
Yang Jian had his own way of surviving.
"To be honest, S-class supernatural incidents breaking out around the world are no longer exceptional. Similar and extremely serious incidents have occurred overseas as well.

It may even shake our country's future standing in the world."
"So this precedent absolutely cannot be set. At the very least, it cannot happen in our country."
Cao Yanhua spoke with great solemnity.
After listening for a moment, Yang Jian roughly understood.

"Alright, I'm done speaking. Now, let us welcome Yang Jian to the stage to present the action summary for this incident." After speaking for more than ten minutes, Cao Yanhua handed the podium over to Yang Jian.
Listening to all of Cao Yanhua's flattering words, Yang Jian vaguely felt that this meeting was not as simple as it seemed. He had not prepared any so-called action
