Chapter 1069 Meeting
"Thank you for your generosity."

Zhou Zheng bowed sincerely to Tao Yu to express his gratitude.

Generally speaking, due to the influence of the supernatural and the issue of their own lifespan, those who control the supernatural will experience various emotional abnormalities.

Almost every demon tamer is like this, with the more insane ones being completely fearless and even committing evil.

However, among the group of demon tamers, Zhou Zheng is definitely one who is mentally close to normal and quite upright.

They are willing to explain these things to ordinary students, and they are also willing to sacrifice themselves to save lives.

Although the hungry ghost inside him after his death had a very serious impact, he was indeed an anomaly among the demon tamers.

After hearing Tao Yu's decision regarding the golden battle suit, he expressed his sincere gratitude.

Although Tao Yu said that he had already taken the damage to the golden battle suit as payment, this method of instantly suppressing the strange resurgence is absolutely priceless!
"As the person in charge of Dachang City, I need to report the current situation here truthfully. Does the young duke have anything to add?"

Zhou Zheng also consulted Tao Yu's opinion and at the same time saw the panoramic phone that was floating around him taking pictures.

In fact, he probably didn't even need to report it himself. The intelligence personnel at headquarters had already seen what was going on here and might even contact him soon.

However, procedurally, you still have to report it yourself.

"up to you."

Tao Yu has already started live streaming, so of course she doesn't care about Zhou Zheng's words.

The dedicated liaison officer who received Zhou Zheng's report was also filled with shock, perhaps due to intelligence delays and errors.
"A ghost realm, at least an A-level paranormal event?"

The liaison officer was shocked not only by the severity of the ghostly incident, but also by how easily it was resolved!
She was aware of Zhou Zheng's condition. He was already not suitable for missions anymore. Every time he used his strange power without restraint, wanting to save everyone, it caused his condition to deteriorate very badly.

And now you're telling me that the problem with the ghost realm incident you were involved in has been resolved?

"For details, you can take a look at the Little Duke's video. I think headquarters has already seen it. I'm just giving a routine report. Also, I'm in good condition right now. The problem of the Little Duke's strange resurgence thanks to his golden battle suit has been solved..."

Meanwhile, Zhou Zheng was giving his liaison a little shock.

Fang Jing was also incredulous, but he had already put away the insane human skin paper again. The paper was full of nauseatingly flattering words and was broken and useless.

Fang Jing also vaguely felt that the strange lord mentioned on the human skin paper was probably the little duke in front of him!

Lord of the Uncanny? What is that thing?!

Tao Yu also felt Fang Jing's gaze and reached out her hand towards him.

"Give it to me, that's not something you can handle."

Tao Yu's tone was calm, but Fang Jing instinctively clutched his pocket, while simultaneously retorting with considerable arrogance.
"This is none of your business! What? Does a dignified young duke want to steal from his student? Aren't you afraid of being ridiculed by the viewers in the live stream?"

Fang Jing's voice was very stern. Ever since he obtained this human skin paper, he had realized that he was the chosen one of destiny. This human skin paper was his golden finger, allowing him to know everything!
Even if it starts talking nonsense now, it will never give up its strongest trump card.

Fang Jing, with his inflated ego and his current age, could be said to look down on everyone!

But just as he finished speaking, before Tao Yu could even utter a sound, a chilling aura emanated from Fang Jing. His pocket was corroded by a force, and the human skin paper fell out and landed on the ground. Then, it seemed as if the edges of the human skin paper had grown legs.

Although moving very slowly, it was making a difficult incursion towards Tao Yu, with red characters constantly flashing on the human skin paper.
'You damn fool, don't stop me from following in my master's footsteps! If you believe me so much, why don't you just die? I lied to you about so many things before; I'm not something you wrote from the future…'

However, the paper dovetail may have lost a lot of its own power and lacks the ability to move. Its slow movement was thwarted by Fang Jing, who then stepped on it and tried to pick it up again.

The others were somewhat puzzled when they saw the human skin paper.

Yang Jian suddenly realized something. No wonder Fang Jing's personality had changed so much. It must be because of this thing.

He doesn't look like a good person at all. Did Fang Jing actually believe some promise he made...?

"what!"

Fang Jing, whose foot was resting on the human skin paper, quickly pulled it away as if his foot had been branded with a hot iron. Tao Yu then stretched out his hand, and the human skin paper floated directly into his palm. He then said in a calm tone...
Why did you step on my things...?

"It's mine! That's mine! Give it back to me!"

Fang Jing's face was contorted with rage as he tried to charge at Tao Yu.

However, Zhou Zheng, who had already contacted the liaison officer, would never allow it.

Several invisible arms suddenly emerged from his golden battle suit, and he grabbed Fang Jing from a distance.

They also looked at the human skin paper in Tao Yu's hand with some surprise and uncertainty.
“I suspected there was something wrong with you from the start. You know too much, and you're so confident, but your character doesn't match. It's as if you've acquired some strange item. Child, didn't you listen to what I said before? How could you believe the words of a ghost? It's lying to you!”

Although Zhou Zheng didn't know what exactly the human skin paper had instilled in Fang Jing, he knew it was definitely a deception. At this point, Zhou Zheng even wanted to save Fang Jing and persuade him to give up.

"Impossible! It is me! How could my future self lie to me!"

Fang Jing was full of disbelief, staring intently at Zhou Zheng and roaring.

"You just want it! You've all lied to me! Let me go! You bunch of robbers, thieves!"

After losing the parchment, Fang Jing was furious and struggled even when Zhou Zheng was holding him with strange power.

Tao Yu didn't even glance at him again, but simply picked up the parchment.

"That's interesting. He knows the past, understands the present, and can predict the future. He's got some skills."

Tao Yu's own 'omniscient and omnipotent' authority also relies mainly on 'information'. In fact, this parchment can also be seen as the relevant authority of the beggar among beggars.

The product of the fusion of an ancient ghost tamer and a ghost can be seen as a ghost with reason.

Because it aligns with the underlying rules of the current world, it is something that few people are aware of their true situation.

As soon as Tao Yu got his hands on the human skin paper, it was filled with all sorts of sycophantic remarks, portraying him as a loyal lackey.

However, Tao Yu also knew that this thing had actually sensed that this was the optimal solution...

……

The supernatural events that occurred at Dachang No. 7 Middle School, and the sudden arrival of Tao Yu, who was in the live broadcast, truly caught the attention of people around the world watching the live broadcast.

Was the student who asked for help before asking for money by sending virtual gifts?

Although many big spenders started showering gifts when Tao Yu started her live stream, ordinary people didn't have that need.

Now that they see Tao Yu coming from afar to help, they've gone completely mad.

All I want is peace of mind, and for the young duke to come and save me in a pinch!

This sudden accumulation of wealth even drew criticism from some attention-seeking self-media outlets.
"Rescue should be humanitarian and gratuitous. Does accepting gifts corrupt its nature?"

"With great power comes great responsibility, and it is unwise for the young duke to use this to manage his finances."

"..."

Tao Yu's ability to speak out like this, seemingly out of fear of power, actually reflects the fact that these self-media outlets already know that powerful figures won't easily confront them.

They've always made their living this way, and they have a very accurate grasp of this situation. In peacetime, there were plenty of requests and questions, but as long as they didn't cross the line, there were no problems.

Now we see Tao Yu constantly saving people, and he seems to want to stand out and attract attention to gain traffic.

It's quite obvious, however, that Tao Yu isn't a magnanimous person...

……

In the control room of a certain self-media broadcast, the host, wearing light makeup, had just arrived on set and began asking questions.

How did the last episode go?

"The results are quite good. Supporters and opponents are arguing fiercely. The popularity has increased, the number of fans has increased by several million, and new advertisers have come knocking on our door."

“Very good. We should make this a series, dig deep into the inside story, condemn this behavior, and also reasonably question whether it was the young duke who released these strange things.”

The host said with great excitement.

"This... isn't a good idea? After all, there really is something strange going on. What if we encounter something like this and have to ask the other party for help?"

However, the host didn't seem to take these words seriously.
"This thing is so rare, how did we end up running into it? And even if we did, wouldn't the bigger our fanbase, the better our appeal for help be? Does he really think he'd just stand by and watch us die? That would invite a barrage of criticism..."

As she spoke of this, she felt quite exhilarated. The place she had longed for had been torn apart by this guy who suddenly appeared. She was already furious about the destruction of her spiritual homeland, and now she could finally vent her anger.

The other party is too high-ranking; challenging such authority is practically risk-free because one wouldn't lower oneself to such a position!
But no sooner had she finished speaking than the temperature in the control room began to drop, the lights started to flicker, and then the cameraman who was preparing the equipment suddenly put down the camera and started rummaging through the tool bag.

The flickering lights, already creating an eerie atmosphere, and the cameraman's actions also attracted some attention.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

"Is it short-circuited...?"

Did you do this?

All they got in return was the roar of chainsaws pulling.
"I don't know if the circuit is shorted or not..."

A chilling, eerie sound rang out, and the cameraman abruptly turned around, chainsaw in hand, and strode towards them.
"But you'll soon be short one section..."

"what!"

……

Similar incidents occurred to almost all attention-grabbing organizations, but with the ban issued by headquarters, all the organizations that made irresponsible statements disappeared overnight, and suddenly the internet became peaceful...

Meanwhile, Tao Yu also arrived at Zhou Zheng's office in Dachang.

As the second head of Dachang City, Zhou Zheng's treatment and environment were excellent. Although wearing the golden battle suit made him look a little strange, he dared not take it off as he was on the verge of a bizarre resurgence. "Sit wherever you like."

"I don't think you've been controlling the supernatural for very long, so how did it turn out like this?"

Tao Yu said casually.

"Perhaps I used it too frequently. The previous user disappeared very suddenly, leaving behind a lot of messes that couldn't be cleaned up."

Zhou Zheng also seemed a little embarrassed. It was true that those who controlled demons had short lifespans, but his seemed to be a little too short.

This made Tao Yu shake his head. The previous person in charge was Feng Quan, who was currently being held back by the ghost messengers in Huanggang Village. Compared to Zhou Zheng, Feng Quan was much more afraid of death and only slightly restricted the handling of strange events, never overusing his strange powers.

Zhou Zheng, his successor, died, but Feng Quan is still alive and well.

However, people like Feng Quan are the norm in the ranks of the Ghost Riders.

Yang Jian is very talented, and he is also a natural demon tamer in terms of temperament. It is no accident or luck that he was able to end the chaos.

Right now, there's not much time left for him to grow. After Tao Yu ended the ghost knocking incident, it would be good to let him live out his life as an ordinary student.

If given a choice, Yang Jian wouldn't actually want to be a demon tamer constantly surrounded by a sense of urgency...

"The headquarters inquired before, wanting to send a special envoy to meet with you. I wonder if you are available?"

Zhou Zheng asked carefully.

Tao Yu's performance on Da Piao Liang's side, with his superb mobility and terrifying domineering combat power, can indeed be said to have transcended all constraints.

His personal will has superseded everything else.

This has led to the headquarters, which is usually very assertive, now having to seek instructions first to avoid offending the other party.

"Yes, this strange and chaotic world will eventually come to an end."

Tao Yu actually felt that the anchoring level was about right now. This world originally had a supernatural world with interlocking rings, and the art style was so fitting. She had already begun preparations to clear it out.

"End the bizarre and chaotic world..."

Zhou Zheng was momentarily lost in thought, but when he thought of the golden battle suit he was wearing and the opponent's ability to deal with at least an A-level monster with a flick of his finger, a burning desire welled up in his heart.

If it's this person, then it seems certain!
"Let's go and take a look at Huanggang Village."

Tao Yu waved his hand.

Although 'Ghost Knocking' is not weak, its essence mainly relies on the Ghost Realm, plus the legacy left behind by Luo Wensong after his death. As long as a Ghost Master possesses the Ghost Realm, he can still deal with it.

However, the essence of the 'ghost messengers' in Huanggang Village is indeed a cut above many other strange phenomena, as they can suppress other strange phenomena. This is an innate form of restraint.

"okay……"

Zhou Zheng hadn't told Tao Yu about Huanggang Village, but he wasn't surprised that the other party knew about it!
The other party is already so capable, it seems normal for them to be even more capable.

Now, let alone this young duke, with his golden battle armor and no longer afraid of the strange resurgence, he seems capable of handling most of the strange things on his own!

But ultimately, the previous person in charge still fell there, so Zhou Zheng spoke up.
"However, if the previous one had an accident over there, there are likely two ghosts there. I know the previous one's code name was 'Ghost Mist,' and he might have possessed the Ghost Realm."

Zhou Zheng was only responsible for providing intelligence and did not intend to influence Tao Yu. Instead, he took the initiative to drive out and act as a driver to take Tao Yu there.

"The special envoy from headquarters has already departed and is expected to arrive tonight."

Zhou Zheng also roughly confirmed the time with Tao Yu, as he was unsure how long this strange situation would take to resolve.

"Just have them come directly to your office; it'll be quick from here."

The ghost messengers in Huanggang Village are still temporarily appearing in the form of 'ghost coffins', and when Feng Quan dealt with them, he hid in a ghost coffin and occupied a strange position, leading to a delicate balance.

However, after so much time, Feng Quan was about to reach his limit.

Zhou Zheng drove Tao Yu there. The road was desolate, with not a single car in sight.

To prevent the harm from spreading, Zhou Zheng sealed off the area under the pretext of a natural disaster, and now they are the only ones on the road.

"Huanggang Village is just ahead. After I became the person in charge, I looked around and could sense how difficult it would be, so I went to deal with other issues first."

As Zhou Zheng spoke, he seemed to feel somewhat guilty.

After all, in his view, this should have been his responsibility, but he felt that he might not be able to handle the problem here. He wanted to save as many people as possible first and deal with this later. Now, he needed someone else to clean up his mess.

"This is beyond your previous abilities to solve; what's inside is getting closer to the bizarre nature of things."

Tao Yu remained calm. As soon as he and Zhou Zheng arrived at the village, they unleashed their Ghost Realm, covering the entire surrounding area.

With Tao Yu's current suppressive power, he immediately locked onto the coffin and the portrait next to it.

He then went straight over and kicked the coffin over, knocking Feng Quan out.
"Come out, stop pretending to be dead."

Feng Quan had been hiding here peacefully, having reached a certain balance with the ghosts outside, but this sudden interruption left him looking quite disheveled.

"Feng Quan? Are you still alive?"

Zhou Zheng also seemed somewhat surprised. He didn't expect that the previous person in charge of handling the strange incident who had been missing for so long was still around, and in fact, judging from the situation, he was even better off than before his own accident.

"I know you, Zhou Zheng. What are you doing? You've ruined everything! We're finished, the balance has been broken."

When Feng Quan came out, he seemed quite agitated and was coughing incessantly.

This is also one of the sources of his strange power.

He had sensed the power of the coffin when he entered it, and he wanted to restore its eerie balance and even control this extremely powerful ghost.

But now everything is in chaos.

"A ghost realm? You've found a good helper, but this ghost is no ordinary one..."

Feng Quan, upon emerging, also sensed Tao Yu's ghostly aura, and his tone softened considerably. He then looked at Zhou Zheng's golden battle armor with a puzzled expression and said...
"How can you be so extravagant? Leaving your head outside won't protect you."

"Feng Quan, shut up! You've been here too long and you're out of touch with the times. Just keep quiet for now!"

When Zhou Zheng heard Feng Quan cursing, his expression changed. He wasn't angry because he was being criticized, but because he was worried that this guy had offended the person next to him.

"This ghost is indeed quite special."

Tao Yu had already reached out and grabbed something in the void. The ghost realm in his hand manifested into a new bubble world, trapping it inside like a Buddhist kingdom in his palm. This scene left Feng Quan, who originally wanted to question Zhou Zheng, completely dumbfounded.

What did I see?
With a simple grab, he pulled out the vengeful ghost?

"This ghost has the ability to restrict other vengeful spirits, and can even seize and merge with the abilities of other vengeful spirits. It's a key to resolving the chaos of the supernatural world. It's gone..."

Tao Yu raised his hand and flicked it, and the ghost realm receded. Then, the ghost coffin and the ghost in Tao Yu's hand disappeared, and a desolate area reappeared.

This turned Feng Quan, who was initially somewhat annoyed, into a well-behaved child. He then whispered to Zhou Zheng, "..."
"I haven't even asked who this person is yet... who is this big shot from?"

too exaggerated!

What should have been a life-or-death situation, requiring the ability to discern patterns to possibly capture a vengeful spirit, was now something they could easily manipulate with a flick of their wrist?!

What was the point of all those previous battles of wits and courage?
"It's a long story, but it's all about the major events that happened during the time you were out of contact."

"How long have I been here? Does this coffin cause time distortion?"

Feng Quan was a little confused.

"Time may not be out of order, but the times have certainly changed..."

Zhou Zheng also felt somewhat emotional.

Back when we were at the Seventh Middle School, although the other side's methods were also extraordinary during their live stream, they still managed to suppress us with both the Golden Armor and the Ghost Realm.

I can still manage to understand some of the principles even if I force myself to.

So now you're not even pretending anymore...?

That kind of palm-sized world with its own Buddhist seal doesn't seem like a strange method at all, does it?

It doesn't seem like the magic you're talking about...

When Zhou Zheng returned to Dachang City with these feelings, the headquarters' helicopter had already landed with a roar.

Subsequently, Wang Xiaoming, the most valuable scientific researcher at headquarters, and Qin Lao, who was responsible for combat capabilities, got off the helicopter one after the other.

"Your Excellency, you are not from this world, are you?"

As soon as Wang Xiaoming met Tao Yu, he cut to the chase and said the sentence he had been preparing for a long time.

"It depends on your understanding of the world."

Tao Yu remained noncommittal. The wizarding world could be said to exist outside this world, and the deeper supernatural world could also be said to not exist, but all worlds were situated in the abyss…

"Well, thank you anyway for choosing to save the world, and if you have any needs, we will meet them unconditionally."

Wang Xiaoming was able to summarize many strange patterns and develop a number of items targeting the supernatural, making him one of the absolute cores of the headquarters that could make those who control the supernatural submit.

And when he said those words, he appeared extremely sincere.

Because he has already made predictions and deductions based on the known information, as long as the other party wants to, no one in the world can stop them from doing what they want!
Since we can't stop it, we might as well cooperate...
