Catherine still wanted to rebut, but Diana did not give her the chance. She looked at Fang Xingjian and said, "Fang Xingjian, right? Chinese? It doesn't matter. Thank you for saving Catherine a few days ago. Since you're an extraordinary human, I'm willing to offer you a job as the security manager of the Silver Shield Company. The annual salary will be one million USD. "
She then handed a name card to Fang Xingjian and said, "Take my name card and go to the company for an interview next week. They'll take care of you."
As a member of the United States' upper society, Diana naturally knew about the existence of extraordinary humans. The Silver Shield Security Company that the Douglas family had set up had recruited quite a few extraordinary humans, and they did possess extraordinary battle prowess.
However, to Diana, in this modern society, the things that had the greatest deciding power were still money and wealth.
Although Diana was already considered a member of the United States' upper society, the monsters hidden in the depths of the world, such as the Radiant Congress, the Crimson Alliance, the Dark Knights, and the Bloody Queen, were still not existences that someone of her level could come into contact with.
Moreover, sword arts... Many of the extraordinary humans that Diana had come across possessed powers related to space, flames, curses, and transformations. In comparison, sword arts did not sound like much.
Therefore, to her, offering a position with an annual salary of one million USD to Fang Xingjian was already sufficient to thank him for saving her life.
However, Fang Xingjian threw an indifferent glance at her. He did not say anything, nor did he take the name card from her.
Catherine, who was at the side, said angrily, "Aunt, what are you doing? Master Fang Xingjian saved my life, and his sword arts are extremely powerful. I wish to hand over the company to you temporarily so that I can wholeheartedly cultivate sword arts and comprehend the profoundness of sword arts. "
"Extremely powerful? Profoundness of sword arts? " Diana sneered, shook her head, looked at her watch, and said, "Catherine, I still have an international conference later on and don't have the time to argue with you. I'll ask you one more time. Are you going to give up on the company to learn some sword arts?"
It was true that Diana had built up her prestige before Catherine for a very long time. Now that she was acting like a senior, Catherine felt a sense of pressure.
However, after thinking about the feeling of cultivating sword arts for the past few days, she nodded stubbornly and said, "That's right. I want to cultivate sword arts, even if I have to give up on running the company."
"Good, good, good. Our Catherine has really grown up." Diana's gaze narrowed. She let out a breath and said, "Initially, I saw that you guys were just a bunch of weaklings, so I didn't want to bother you in this aspect. However, I didn't expect you to be so inexperienced in terms of extraordinary powers. You just met a random person and you think he's a master."
"But Master Fang Xingjian is really amazing …"
Linda and Jack also chimed in, "He killed dozens of heavily armed thugs all by himself. He's like Superman in the movies."
"I'm leaving in three minutes, so I'll make it short." Diana said, "The reason why you think he is too strong is not because he is really strong, but because you are too weak. Catherine, I originally thought that you had too little contact with these things, but now it seems that it's too late. "
As she spoke, she raised her phone and dialed a number. "Hello? Is this White Lion? Come to XXXXX. I want you to deal with a person. He's an Asian man with a height of about six feet. He has long hair and is wearing a long robe. His name is Fang Xingjian. No … There's no need to beat him to death. Just knock him unconscious will do. "
She then put away her phone and walked out in her high heels while saying, "Later on, someone will come and fight him. You guys will know when the time comes. I'll get him to tell you guys about the current situation of extraordinary humans so that you guys won't always be clueless about the situation. "Catherine, if I don't see you at the company tomorrow at 8: 30 AM, all of your bank cards will be frozen."
Just as she was walking away, she suddenly turned around and smiled at Fang Xingjian. "I'm sorry, Mr. Fang. I'm not targeting you. It's just that Catherine is too young and I'm in a rush, so I was a little rough. "You can still apply for a job at the Silver Shield Company. We welcome extraordinary humans like you at any time." Her tone was very polite, but there was a hint of arrogance in the depths of her eyes that could not be erased.
With that, she left without even turning back, leaving behind a cool back view. This woman was indeed swift and decisive, self-centered, and incomparably unyielding.
However, Fang Xingjian smiled and did not say a word. How could he possibly care about a mere mortal? On the contrary, it was this argument that stimulated Catherine's rebellious nature. She was determined to achieve good results in her sword arts cultivation and let her aunt know that she had not made the wrong choice.
This was something that Fang Xingjian was happy to see happen.
Therefore, the three of them continued to practice their sword arts. Half an hour later, a black silhouette leaped over the wall and walked over slowly.
It was a tall and handsome blonde young man. He had a bright smile on his face and looked just like the big boy next door.
With a sunny smile, he looked at the three of them and Fang Xingjian practicing their sword arts. Seeing their gazes, he waved his hand and asked, "I'm sorry. Which one of you is Fang Xingjian? Oh ~ All three of you are celebrities, and there's only one of you. Then you must be Fang Xingjian, right? "He pointed to Fang Xingjian and said.
The person who had spoken was White Lion, whom Diana had called over earlier. He was one of the extraordinary humans recruited by the Silver Shield Security Company and possessed the Metal Evolution System. He could strengthen his body's toughness by repeatedly engulfing various different metals and alloys.
Right now, he was already an existence that was invulnerable to weapons. Ordinary handguns and machine guns were no longer able to cause him any harm. Only powerful concussive attacks such as rocket projectiles and howitzers would be able to deal him any damage.
However, they were only effective. If one wished to really kill him, they would still need firepower that covered a large area.
Therefore, no matter where White Lion went, he would always be open and aboveboard. He was used to walking over and defeating all his opponents head-on.
Right now, when he saw that there were still people practicing sword arts using cold weapons, he felt that it was a little funny. Even firearms were unable to do anything to him, so ordinary cold weapons were not even worth a mention to him.
Diana was not an idiot. Although she did not place much importance on the sword arts system, she still sent White Lion, who was invulnerable to weapons, to fight against Fang Xingjian to ensure that nothing would go wrong.
In her opinion, being invulnerable to weapons against sword arts was a surefire way to go.
Hearing White Lion's question, Fang Xingjian did not even turn his head and continued to guide Catherine on her sword arts.
"The body has to become one, and the internal organs have to become one as well. You also have to maintain a certain body's rhythm and frequency. You have to become one with that omnipresent power in the air. If you can do all of these, you'll be considered to have reached the entry level."
While saying the requirements for the first transition, Fang Xingjian grabbed Catherine's hand, driving the circulation and frequency of the power in her body, thrusting out repeatedly.
White Lion grinned and said, "It's already a modern society. Cold weapons have already been eliminated. What's the use of practicing sword arts now?"
Fang Xingjian paid him no heed. He continued to hold Catherine's hand, driving her power to perform sword arts. In the end, with a swoosh, he slashed out toward the sky.
When this sword slashed out, Catherine felt that her physical body, bones, organs, and breathing seemed to have become one. There was an endless amount of power in the surrounding air that gathered onto this sword.
Therefore, as this sword attack tore through the air, it shot out a supersonic air current, slashing out toward the sky. In that instant, an explosive sound rang out as if thunder had struck. The sword Qi instantly traversed a distance of several hundred meters, splitting the cloud layers in the sky into two, and slashing out a gap of about 1.5 kilometers in the sea of clouds.
This was a sword attack at the pinnacle of the first transition.
At the sight of this sword attack, Catherine could not believe that she was the one who had unleashed it.
At the side, Jack and Linda were also dumbfounded.
Fang Xingjian nodded and said, "Remember this feeling. In the future, attack like this."
After saying that, he turned to look at White Lion and asked, "You're looking for me?"
White Lion felt that his entire body had stiffened up. How strong would the person who was able to teach someone how to slash out that sword attack earlier be? White Lion could not even think of it.
He smiled awkwardly and cautiously, "Hello, I'm just passing by. You have great sword arts."
However, Fang Xingjian flicked his fingers and said, "How many more extraordinary humans does the Silver Shield Company have?"
"Four."
"How many more can you call over?"
"Four."
"Call all of them over."
In the office, Diana tried calling White Lion's number but realized that he would not pick up. She frowned. "Forget it. If there's anything, the Silver Shield should inform me. It's probably settled by now."
At the thought of this, she put down her cell phone and continued working. After all, this was just a small matter to her. She still had several hundred million worth of contracts to sign later.
