reincarnation npc, but tomorrow's ark

And soon, two days after the personnel reshuffle was completed, the investigation team of Da Yan also arrived in Longmen.

The investigation team consisted of officials from the Court of Judicial Review, censors from the Censorate, messengers from the Imperial Observatory, and candle bearers from the Imperial Calendar Office.

They did not enter the city immediately, but instead followed the Imperial Astronomical Bureau's natural disaster messengers in the wilderness for two days before finally entering the city.

So, upon learning of their arrival, Bai Ye deliberately appeared with Nian in a restaurant in Longmen.

Although there were only two of them, he reserved a fairly large table with a hot pot on it.

Of course, we had a very enjoyable time eating during the New Year.

After a short while, several mysterious-looking people appeared inside the Longmen Food Court.

The leader was wearing a long red robe and a hood, with only a wisp of golden hair visible peeking out from under the hood.

Behind her was another person wearing a hooded red robe, only more robust and wearing a mask.

Finally, a rather kind-looking young man accompanied them. When he saw Bai Ye, he smiled at him, a very sunny smile.

"sit."

Bai Ye wasn't surprised; instead, he adopted the posture of the host. He pointed to the empty seat next to him and the hot pot on the table, its broth bubbling and red.

However, the host seemed a bit rude, as the young man beside him had already started eating and did not wait for the latecomer.

Of course, the guests had no intention of sitting down, perhaps because the red soup instilled fear in them. The taste of Shang Shu was not something all people from Yan could accept.

"Why did the Year Beast, in its incarnation Nian, leave the Great Yan and suddenly appear at Longmen?"

"What was the cause of the natural disaster fluctuations last month?"

The burly, masked man in red robes spoke up, questioning the matter.

From the moment he spoke, the surrounding noise began to fade away, as if something unseen was separating this place from the outside world.

"Ugh, that old man didn't even care about me!" Nian put down her chopsticks and frowned.

She was a little annoyed that her meal had been interrupted.

However, she also knew that these were people from the Great Yan government. Although it wasn't exactly a threat, if it wasn't handled properly, it would never end. If she offended a truly ruthless person, even she wouldn't have peace.

"Cough-cough-"

"Gentlemen of the Great Yan Dynasty, please have a seat. I have been waiting for you for a long time."

Having promised Wei Yanwu, Bai Ye kept his word and stood up with a smile, pulling out chairs for everyone.

The man in red robes continued to press, "And who are you, and why are you sitting with the incarnation of the Year Beast?"

Bai Ye smiled: "I am Bai Ye. I asked Miss Lai Nian to forge the sword for me. That disaster has nothing to do with us."

“Bai Ye… I know you. Our department has studied your works and we even wanted to invite you to give a lecture for us.” The sunny young man tugged at the red-robed man’s sleeve and then sat down beside him.

He then praised, "You truly deserve to be called an expert on the immortals; you've benefited us immensely. But, I didn't realize you were so...young?"

"No need for such formalities, just call me Bai Ye."

"Then I would rather obey your orders than be respectful."

"Si Suitai is indeed quite capable, managing to come knocking on our door so quickly." Bai Ye smiled.

He had seen these candle-bearers before in the Great Yan Dynasty; they were specifically responsible for matters related to giant beasts. They were practically "old acquaintances."

Even after Bai Ye exposed his identity, the young man remained unperturbed, maintaining his smile: "Impressive. My name is Zuo Le, and I am indeed from Si Sui Tai. Does Brother Bai Ye know anything about this sword mark?"

As he spoke, he placed a photograph in front of Bai Ye.

Above is the sword mark that cleaved the sky.

Bai Ye didn't hide anything. He took the photo and examined it carefully, then placed it on the table and pushed it forward: "Ah, you mean this? The weather suddenly changed that day, and my sword was just finished being forged. In a moment of inspiration, I drew my sword and swung it casually..."

……

This answer left the group of people looking at each other in bewilderment.

"That's true." Nian nodded.

"Ah, this..." Seeing that the avatar of the Year Beast also nodded in affirmation, this matter seemed to be true.

But when did Longmen acquire such a master?

What is his purpose in staying with the incarnation of the Year Beast, and what are his plans afterward?

Bai Ye's plan was indeed very successful. He successfully shifted the focus of these people's work from investigating Wei Yanwu and Longmen to investigating himself.

And the fact that he visited Rhodes Island as a visitor in 2000 is unlikely to be among the most important things to focus on.

Otherwise, what makes a pharmaceutical company so capable of attracting a behemoth to come knocking on its door?

Zuo Le smiled and said, "Mr. Bai Ye, it's not that we don't believe you, it's just... well, this matter concerns the most important secrets of the Great Yan Dynasty, it's of great significance, and..."

Before he could finish speaking, he stopped and said nothing more.

Because a strand of hair was cut off near his ear and slowly fell to the ground.

Bai Ye's hands remained empty.

Then, the wooden table behind Zuo Le suddenly cracked open.

Then, a wooden plank was suddenly cut off the door of the food stall.

Then, several gasps came from the street outside the door.

The group got up and walked to the door.

Looking up, they realized that the sky had been cleaved open.

A new sword mark appeared in the sky, splitting the clouds in two.

Zuo Le couldn't help but gasp.

Turning his head, he saw Bai Ye dealing with the boss.

In his hand, he casually held a sword.

Bai Ye handed a stack of Lungmen dollars to the restaurant owner.

"I'll compensate."

Yes, although the move was quick and stylish, Bai Ye still had to compensate the boss at the market price.

-------------------------------------

"We were blind to his greatness."

Zuo Le apologized to Bai Ye, then left with the others.

There's no point in continuing to argue.

They no longer have the authority to handle this matter, or rather, they are unable to handle it.

There are people in the Great Yan Dynasty who can split the sky, but they are few and far between. Only a handful of people can actually do it.

After that, they will probably continue to monitor the movements of Bai Ye and the incarnation of the Sui Beast, while also finding someone of sufficient influence.

After the three left, Chen Huijie got up from another table and walked over.

She stepped out of the food stall, looked up at the sky, and then turned to ask, "Is this the Cloud-Splitting Sword?"

"Hmm, flying on the sword like this is even easier than last time."

Bai Ye seemed to have found a bit of a feeling.

"Why do you want to do this?" Nian asked, puzzled.

"Because I want to get in touch with Da Yan, only by showing my weight and strength can I make others take me seriously and look up to me."

Bai Ye sheathed his sword.

No one knows when it was pulled out.

Chapter One: Sisters

Inside the office, Wei Yanwu looked up at the sky.

A white streak pierced through the sky above Longmen, as if it were about to slice the sky in two.

"Watch closely, Huijie, this is the real Cloud-Splitting Sword."

Wei Yanwu turned his head and looked at Chen Huijie standing behind him.

Chen Huijie remained silent.

Wei Yanwu continued, "Actually, both Wen Yue and I originally wanted to match you up with that kid Bai Ye. I even invited him to our house for dinner before, which was also Wen Yue's idea."

"Eh?"

Chen Huijie was somewhat surprised. She hadn't expected Wei Yanwu to say these things, let alone that he would say them now.

"As people get older, they inevitably start to think about the future. I never used to talk to you about these things, but Wen Yue said that we can't keep quiet about nothing, and in the end, the conflicts just kept getting bigger and bigger."

Because of his guilt towards Edward and his sister, Wei Yanwu was never able to face Chen Huijie properly in the past, and he never explained his actions, which led to the misunderstanding between the two growing bigger and bigger.

Fortunately, Bai Ye helped them find Talulah and even took action to deal with Koschie, which allowed Wei Yanwu to let go of some of his obsessions.

"There are many talented young people in the Great Yan Dynasty. You have never returned to the Chen family mansion. Your father actually withstood a lot of pressure from the family and gave you more freedom than others."

Chen Huijie's expression stiffened, but she finally nodded.

Although they were reluctant to admit it, as members of the Great Yan nobility, their marriages were not exactly free.

If the two families had been on good terms for generations, and their children had been childhood sweethearts, things would probably be much better; unfortunately, the Longmen side is all girls.

"Bai Ye is indeed very good. Although his background is unknown, he is far superior to other talents of the Great Yan Dynasty. I do not intend to use you and Xiao Ta to tie this person to my chariot."

Wei Yanwu paused for a long time before continuing, "Because I may have to do something. If something unexpected happens, you and Xiaota will have someone to rely on."

As for Wen Yue, Wei Yanwu knew his first wife; she would only be with him.

Chen Huijie frowned: "What are you going to do?"

“There’s no rush, there’s still time. Now that you’re the director of the Guard Bureau, my position will be yours.” Wei Yanwu looked somewhat old at this moment, although by the standards of the True Dragon Bloodline, he was still considered to be in his prime.

"But then I thought, Bai Ye has gone too far, it will be difficult for you to catch up with him, and he doesn't have the mind to do so, so we didn't continue."

Wei Yanwu looked up at the sky as he spoke.

Terra's ecosystem has been severely damaged, and feathered beasts no longer fly freely in the sky, but the sword mark left by Bai Ye seems to have drawn a line between mortals and the extraordinary.

Wei Yanwu never imagined that the young man who once spoke so eloquently about the issue of the immortals in his own home would now stand so high.

"What exactly do you want to do?" Chen Huijie's focus was not on Bai Ye.

“I’m just doing what I’m supposed to do, and I don’t want to back down anymore.” Wei Yanwu glanced at Chixiao behind Chen Huijie. “I might need to borrow this sword in the future.”

Wei Yanwu knew that he had used this sword to kill his sworn brother in the past, but his repeated concessions did not reassure his younger brother, whose suspicious gaze remained fixed on Longmen.

Therefore, in the future, he will still be on the path of patricide.

Chixiao is a sword for slaying dragons, and a sword for slaying dragons is meant to do just that.

He had planned this all along, but now he was even more determined in his decision.

-------------------------------------

Bai Ye was unaware of Wei Yanwu's thoughts.

Or rather, he wasn't surprised that Wei Yanwu would do this. Because before he transmigrated, he had made the same choice, and even if a "Chernobyl incident" like the one in the past hadn't occurred, Wei Yanwu would still have gone down this path.

Of course, if he were still a player at this moment, he would probably try every means to join Wei Yanwu's hidden faction and complete its hidden missions in order to reap huge benefits.

However, as someone who is half NPC, half GM, and half planner, there's no need for me to do this.

The small reward that used to be earned by completing a series of tasks is now readily available to Bai Ye.

"It seems this sword suits you very well."

Nian watched as a group of people disappeared into the crowd, and the iron curtain that had separated the sound also quietly vanished.

"You know them?"
