Realm of the Night God

Chapter 561: Appointment

Yang Haoran's words were clear, and Tang Shi naturally understood that he was going to be promoted.

Tang Shi was overjoyed in his heart and quickly knelt down on one knee, respectfully saying, "No matter how many tasks you give me, I will never complain!"

"Heh heh, very good, get up," Yang Haoran said with a smile.

Tang Shi stood up, and although he was wearing a mask, his tone of voice revealed that he was extremely excited at this moment.

"For the next few days, don't leave Lecheng. I'll gather everyone else and we'll have a meeting," Yang Haoran said.

"Yes, master!" Tang Shi quickly responded with respect, his excitement growing even stronger because he knew that his day of recognition was approaching.

Before leaving, Yang Haoran used the formation flag given to him by Xu Meijing to set up a secret base in the mountains. The base was already well-hidden, and with the addition of a powerful formation flag, it became even more secure.

Before departing, Yang Haoran left a barrier mark on Tang Shi, allowing him to enter and exit the secret base freely.

Yang Haoran had initially wanted to give Tang Shi a few days off, but Tang Shi declined, deciding to stay in the secret base to improve its internal facilities. Previously, there was no restriction barrier, and Tang Shi dared not use his abilities too much, fearing that the existence of Yin Qi would be detected. Now, with the barrier in place, he could use his full strength without worrying about Yin Qi leaking out, so he wanted to take this opportunity to perfect the secret base.

Tang Shi was full of enthusiasm, which pleased Yang Haoran greatly. He needed subordinates like Tang Shi, who were full of energy and could create more value for him.After returning to the villa, Yang Haoran called the other two malevolent spirits and the four-person team, telling them to put aside their current tasks and return to Lecheng. The meeting point was at the secret base in the mountains.

Several days later, Yang Haoran returned to the secret base, this time accompanied by seven ghosts, including Tang Shi.

In the conference room, Yang Haoran sat in the main seat, with Tang Shi standing respectfully by his side. The other six ghosts sat on stone chairs below.

Although the six ghosts below were seated, and Tang Shi was standing, Tang Shi's position was different, making him seem more superior even though he was standing. This was clear to everyone.

What puzzled them was how Tang Shi's status had changed so greatly in such a short time.

Especially the four-person team, who had never seen Tang Shi before and were curious about the person standing beside Yang Haoran.

The large conference room, which could seat over a hundred people, was now almost empty, making it seem somewhat deserted.

However, Yang Haoran was not anxious about this, knowing that this was just the beginning and that the place would definitely become more lively in the future.

"This time, I suddenly asked everyone to drop their tasks and return immediately because I have an order to announce. The person beside me, Tang Shi, will be your leader from now on. When I'm not around, his orders are my orders. I hope everyone will fully cooperate with his work," Yang Haoran said with a smile.

Although the six people had some guesses about this in their hearts, they were still shocked when they heard Yang Haoran say it out loud.

Despite their shock, the six people didn't dare to slack off and quickly got up to respond with respect.

"Although you weren't selected this time, don't be discouraged. Your team will become stronger and stronger, and more people will be promoted by me in the future. As long as you have the ability, you won't be overlooked here, and I'll let you shine," Yang Haoran said with a smile.

Although the six people didn't show any dissatisfaction with his decision, Yang Haoran knew that they would inevitably doubt Tang Shi's abilities. How to make them trust Tang Shi instead of questioning him was something Yang Haoran didn't want to worry about. If Tang Shi couldn't even handle this, it would prove that he wasn't as capable as Yang Haoran had imagined.

At that point, Yang Haoran would definitely replace Tang Shi with someone more capable, because Tang Shi didn't have the qualifications to sit in that position. If he wasn't replaced, the entire team would have a hard time developing.

Right now, Yang Haoran was saying this to the six people not for Tang Shi's sake, but to give them hope and motivation to continue.

As soon as he finished speaking, Yang Haoran took out a soul pill in front of the seven people.

The six ghosts below became excited when they saw Yang Haoran take out the soul pill, their eyes shining with enthusiasm.

"You've all worked hard, and I've seen your achievements. I won't let you labor in vain. As long as you have achievements, I'll reward you."

After speaking, Yang Haoran handed the soul pill to Tang Shi.

"Divide this soul pill among the seven of you, but the amount each person gets will be based on their performance during this time."

Including Tang Shi, the seven ghosts had achieved varying degrees of success this year, and Yang Haoran informed Tang Shi of the information, but only about the malevolent spirits and evil spirits they had discovered. This was only one aspect of their achievements, and the various items they had brought back were also part of their achievements.

This time, the six people had brought back a lot of things, especially the four-person team, who had gone out on their mission much earlier than Tang Shi's team, so they had obtained a large quantity of items. As for the value of these items, it would need to be appraised later.

Tang Shi accepted the task and took the soul pill from Yang Haoran, preparing to appraise the various items the six people had brought back.

"From now on, I'll leave this kind of thing entirely up to you. I hope you'll record accurately and not be careless. Those who have merits will be rewarded, and those who have faults will be punished, including you," Yang Haoran said, looking at Tang Shi.

"I understand, master Please don't worry!" Tang Shi guaranteed hastily.

"Then I'll leave the rest to you. How you arrange them is up to you. I have other things to attend to, so I won't stay here any longer."

After speaking, Yang Haoran stood up and walked down from the high platform, leaving the meeting room under the respectful sendoff of the seven people.

After Yang Haoran left, Tang Shi followed Yang Haoran's orders to appraise the various items the six people had brought back. Most of these items were bought with New Genesis Coins, and some were obtained through other means.

When the few people had left earlier, Yang Haoran had given each of them a bank card with a significant amount of New Genesis Coins to make the most of the coins. These coins were used to purchase various valuable items.

The few people had brought back a lot of things this time, but whether they were valuable and how valuable they were would need to be determined by Tang Shi's appraisal.
