Realm of the Night God

Chapter 571: Paving the Way for the Future

As soon as Yang Haoran hung up the phone, a smile spread across his face, growing several degrees thicker.

Ever since he had the good fortune of becoming the Burial Master, he had always wanted to get closer to Luo Yao, the Boss, even if it was just to become familiar with each other's faces.

As the Guardian, Luo Yao's power and connections were beyond his reach, and if he could gain Luo Yao's recognition, his future path would not only be smooth but also much easier to walk.

However, he had never had a suitable opportunity, so he could only keep this thought to himself, without expressing it, let alone calling Luo Yao randomly.

This time, with the disappearance of the Yunchuan City Burial Master, the Night Watch being killed, and the Death God Temple being destroyed, Yang Haoran saw it as a great opportunity. As long as he did a good job, he would definitely gain credit, and it would be impossible to escape.

Apart from the credit, he could also leave a deeper impression on Luo Yao, his superior, paving the way for his future.

After arriving in Yunchuan City, the first thing Yang Haoran did was not to think of ways to find the ghost, but to come here to verify the situation with the Night Watch, in order to have a better understanding of the current situation in Yunchuan City. This way, when reporting to Luo Yao, he could speak clearly, knowing where to add flavor and where not to exaggerate, and he would have a grasp on the situation.

If he didn't understand the situation at all and didn't know what had happened in the past few days, reporting to his superior would be like asking three questions without knowing the answers, not only failing to leave a good impression but also potentially causing a backlash.

Yang Haoran, of course, would not do such a foolish thing, so he first made sure to understand and verify, and then report.

Before calling Luo Yao, Yang Haoran had prepared two plans. If Luo Yao didn't know about the situation in Yunchuan City, he would follow the first plan. If Luo Yao already knew about the situation, he would follow the second plan.Regardless of which plan, his ultimate goal was to stay in Yunchuan City to help, but in his opinion, the second plan was not as good as the first, as it was relatively more passive and would bring him fewer benefits.

So, when he found out that Luo Yao didn't know what had happened in Yunchuan City, he felt a secret joy, as this meant he could implement the first plan.

Luo Yao's instruction for him to stay in Yunchuan City to handle the incident did not surprise Yang Haoran, as it was within his expectations, and this was exactly what he wanted!

With the authorization of Luo Yao, the Guardian, many things would be easier to handle, if not without any worries, at least with fewer troubles.

The Night Watch had already finished his phone call before Yang Haoran hung up, but he didn't approach Yang Haoran, instead standing respectfully at a distance.

He wasn't blind, and seeing Yang Haoran on the phone, he wouldn't choose to approach him at this time, as he knew that some conversations were not for him to hear, and standing at a distance was what he should do.

When Yang Haoran hung up and put away his mobile phone, the Night Watch quickly ran towards him.

"Divine Envoy, I've already notified the deputy divine envoy, and he's very happy to know of your arrival. He's on his way here now," the Night Watch said respectfully to Yang Haoran.

Yang Haoran's smile remained on his face as he nodded to the Night Watch, indicating that he understood.

"Please, Divine Envoy, take a step inside and rest for a while."

Just as the Night Watch finished speaking, Yang Haoran's mobile phone, which he had just put away, suddenly rang again.

Yang Haoran was somewhat puzzled and took out his mobile phone to check, only to find that the sudden incoming call was from Luo Yao.

He had just spoken with Luo Yao on the phone, and it had only been a short while, but Luo Yao was calling again, indicating that there was likely something that hadn't been clarified.

Yang Haoran didn't dare to delay and quickly created some distance with the Night Watch before answering the call.

"Divine Envoy, do you have any further instructions?" Yang Haoran asked respectfully after answering the call.

"I've just checked, and you've only been a Burial Master for a short time, so your abilities are limited. The Burial Master of Yunchuan City has been in that position for decades, and even he encountered unexpected problems, which suggests that the enemy is probably more formidable than you think. Therefore, for safety reasons, I'll send two more Burial Masters to support you. They'll contact you soon."

"Yes, Divine Envoy!" Yang Haoran, of course, didn't dare to say no and hastily responded with respect.

Luo Yao's arrangement had both advantages and disadvantages for Yang Haoran. The advantage was that the safety of the mission would increase, but the disadvantage was that there would be two more people to share the benefits.

Earlier, when Yang Haoran was talking to Luo Yao on the phone, he had actually thought of the issue Luo Yao was raising now, but he hadn't brought it up himself because it would have changed the tone of the conversation.

In reality, Yang Haoran knew that if he had to handle this matter alone, it would be difficult to deal with, and he might even lose his life.

Moreover, even if he used all his means to resolve the issue, it would be hard to explain to Luo Yao how he had done it with his limited abilities as a Burial Master of only a few years.

Having two more people, although it would reduce the benefits, would increase safety and could also be used as a cover.

Now that things had come to this, Yang Haoran couldn't change Luo Yao's decision, so he could only accept it. To make himself more accepting, he could only think about the benefits that the two people would bring, rather than the drawbacks.

After hanging up Luo Yao's call, Yang Haoran soon received two more calls, which were from the two Burial Masters sent by Luo Yao to support him in Yunchuan City.

From their voices, they seemed to be males, but one of the males' voices gave Yang Haoran a sense of déjà vu, as if he had heard it somewhere before but couldn't quite remember where.

Neither of them introduced themselves, and Yang Haoran wondered if it was because they looked down on him as a newcomer or for some other reason. They didn't say much after answering Yang Haoran's call, only asking about his current location before hanging up.

Yang Haoran's facial expression didn't change, as if he hadn't taken their attitude to heart.

Soon after, several Night Watch members wearing black robes entered the Death God Temple where Yang Haoran was, their bodies shrouded in black robes and exuding a cold aura.

After entering the temple, their gazes were fixed on the location of the Death God divine statue.

Standing below the divine statue were two people, naturally Yang Haoran and another Night Watch member.

At this time, Yang Haoran was standing with his back to the door, his hands in his pockets, gazing at the divine statue in front of him, his mind unknown. The Night Watch member was standing beside him, waiting for orders.

The Night Watch members who entered the temple all fixed their gazes on Yang Haoran, their footsteps initially slowing down before quickening under the lead of their leader.

Yang Haoran, of course, sensed the arrival of the group, and his gaze returned from the broken divine statue, slowly turning to face the approaching Night Watch members.

The group's footsteps were somewhat hurried, and the auras they emitted varied in strength, with two of them having extremely weak auras.

Through the information he had obtained from the Night Watch member beside him, Yang Haoran knew that the Night Watch members who had rushed towards him had also experienced a great battle the previous night, so their auras were generally weaker due to their injuries not having fully recovered.

As for the two with the weakest auras, it was obvious that they were the most severely injured among the group.

"Greetings, Divine Envoy!"

The group quickly arrived in front of Yang Haoran and knelt down on one knee to pay their respects, but their faces all showed some doubt.

Looking at them, it seemed that they still had some doubts about Yang Haoran's identity.
