The existence of the exquisite pagoda was an absolute secret, and there were only six people in the entire Everlasting Feast Hall who knew about its existence. Among these six people, aside from Ji Chimei, who was loyal to Gu Yan 'er, there were only him and Gu Yan' er's three disciples.
Therefore …
Even though Chi Nan was a core member of the Everlasting Feast Hall and was loyal to him, he couldn't tell her about the exquisite pagoda, at least not now.
The smile on Chi Nan's face disappeared and was replaced with a bit of awe as she whispered, "Boss, this subordinate was wrong."
Tan Xiu lightly said, "It's a great thing to know your mistakes and correct them. I'm warning you for your own good. The more problems you face in the future and the more you know, the more dangerous it will be. The most important thing for you now is to seriously cultivate. Only by becoming stronger can you have the qualifications to make me pay attention to you in the future. "
"This subordinate has just broken through to the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment," said Chi Nan hurriedly. "I won't neglect you in the future. I'll definitely be at the top among all the core members of the Everlasting Feast Hall."
Tan Xiu looked at her with a strange expression. A bit of ridicule suddenly appeared in his eyes as he indifferently said, "From your words, I can tell that you seem to think that the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment is already a great achievement? Do you think you're now at the top of all the members? "
"This subordinate doesn't dare," said Chi Nan quickly.
"I can responsibly tell you that among the 100 to 200 core members of the Everlasting Feast Hall, three have broken through to the Golden Core Stage, and two have reached the mid-stage." Tan Xiu sneered. "There are 19 of them who have broken through to the late-stage of Foundation Establishment, and 46 of them have reached the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment. You've just broken through to the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment, so you can barely rank 46th. Among the 100 to 200 people, you're ranked 46th. Can you be considered at the top? "
"What?"
Disbelief was written all over Chi Nan's face. Her mouth was wide open and she didn't speak for a long time.
The 46th?
Aside from working, she spent most of her time on cultivation and even spent a lot of money to buy a lot of cultivation resources from the Everlasting Feast Hall. She had been working so hard, yet she was only ranked 46th?
This …
How was this possible?
As Tang Xiu walked toward the outside, he said, "You didn't hear it wrong. You're at most ranked 46th among the 100 or 200 core members of the Everlasting Feast Hall in terms of cultivation level. Based on actual combat experience, I'm afraid you won't even be ranked 46th. Cultivation realm was not the standard to measure a person's strength. Only those who had fought with all their might and sharpened themselves on the edge of life and death could be considered a true expert. As for Nine Dragons Island, aside from those who stayed on Jingmen Island, many of them have experienced brutal battles. Even some of our Everlasting Feast Hall's core members have fallen. "
Chi Nan was thoroughly shaken. Never in her wildest dreams did she expect that enemies would appear on Nine Dragons Island. Moreover, they even started a crazy fight with their own people. She didn't expect that some of her brothers and sisters would die in battle, and quite a few of them at that.
What had happened over there?
Suddenly.
Chi Nan felt ashamed of herself for breaking through to the middle stage of the Foundation Building realm. He was improving, but others were also improving. There were probably many people who were working harder than him.
"I was wrong, Boss."
With a shameful look, Chi Nan lowered her head and said.
Tan Xiu stopped and turned to look at her. Then, he lightly said, "Chi Nan, you've been in contact with me a lot, so we're relatively close. So you must remember that there's always someone better than you out there. Arrogance and conceit will only lead to you being surpassed by others. As a matter of fact, I'm very optimistic about you. You can still have great achievements in the future as long as you're willing to work hard. "
"I'll definitely work hard, Boss," said Chi Nan firmly.
Tan Xiu didn't speak anymore. After coming to the parking lot, he just sat in the back seat and then looked at Chi Nan, who was sitting in the driver's seat, and said, "Investigate someone for me. Her name is Yang Yan, a fashion designer with her own studio …"
"Understood!"
Chi Nan replied and started the car, heading toward the Everlasting Feast Hall's HQ.
Jingmen Island, Paradise Club.
A super luxurious cruise ship was quietly docked at the port. Although it was late at night, there were still a lot of guests coming and going. Most of them were well-dressed and looked like successful people. Eight middle-aged men in black suits and ties stood on both sides of the passageway, examining all the guests coming and going.
Ouyang Yun was wearing a red evening gown with a sparkling platinum necklace on her neck. A charming smile hung on her beautiful face as she checked the membership cards of the guests who came here.
"Hello, please show me your membership card."
Ouyang Yun smiled and looked at the woman in front of her, who looked a bit embarrassed and evasive.
Yang Yan's fingers grabbed the corner of her clothes. She hesitated and asked, "I want to spend in the Paradise Club. Do I still need a membership card? I know a waiter in the Paradise Club. He's my younger brother. Can you make an exception and let me go in to look for him? "
Ouyang Yun slightly furrowed her brows and lightly said, "I'm sorry, I can't let you go in without a membership card. As for your brother, he's a waiter in our Paradise Club. You can call him if you want to look for him and ask him to come out and see you. "
"I called him, but I couldn't get through to him," said Yang Yan hurriedly.
"What's your brother's name?" asked Ouyang Yun.
"Yang Fei," answered Yang Yan.
Ouyang Yun looked at the middle-aged man next to her and said in a deep voice, "Go and ask if our Paradise Club has a waiter named Yang Fei. If there is, bring him here."
"Understood!"
The middle-aged man replied and strode toward the luxury liner.
A few minutes later.
The middle-aged man came over with a sleepy young man. When they came to the entrance, the young man looked surprised. He strode forward and looked at Yang Yan, calling out, "Big Sis, how did you find this place? Didn't I tell you not to disturb my work if there's nothing important? "
Yang Yan looked at Ouyang Yun and wanted to speak but hesitated.
Ouyang Yun had just checked the membership cards of the guests. After noticing Yang Yan's expression, she immediately said, "If it's inconvenient for outsiders to know about your conversation, you can talk in a distant place. However, the liner will set sail in half an hour. As a waiter of the Paradise Club, I hope you won't let your private affairs affect your work. "
"I understand, General Manager," said Yang Fei quickly.
After a while …
Yang Yan and Yang Fei came to a place tens of meters away. With a curious look on his face, Yang Fei asked in a low voice, "Big Sis, what's going on? Why are you here? "
"Little Fei, hurry up and quit your job here," said Yang Yan bitterly. "Come with me to the Imperial Capital for a while. I've already contacted someone in the Imperial Capital. Let's stay at my classmate's place for a while and then we'll make further plans. "
"Why are we going to the Imperial Capital, Big Sis?" asked Yang Fei, confused.
"I offended some powerful and influential people in Jingmen Island," said Yang Yan. "They're now hunting me down. If my guess is correct, they'll soon trace it to you through me. So let's leave Jingmen Island first and go to the Imperial Capital to avoid the storm. After some time, we'll come back quietly and sell our properties. Jingmen Island will no longer be suitable for us to live in later. "
Yang Fei's face turned pale and he hurriedly asked, "Big Sis, who did you offend? What's going on? Tell me clearly. "
Yang Yan forced a smile and said, "I offended the owner of the Garden Stud Farm just to help my bestie. You've ridden horses with me, so you should know the owner of the Garden Stud Farm, Guo Fugui. He's powerful and influential in Jingmen Island. Even if he can't cover the sky with one hand, it's still easy for him to deal with some people. Also, I can tell you that there's someone behind Guo Fugui, and it seems like that person is more powerful than him. That's why we must run away to the Imperial Capital to avoid the storm. "
The sudden news scared Yang Fei and made him shiver all over. He naturally knew who Guo Fugui was. He even knew more than his sister.
Guo Fugui.
On the surface, he was the owner of the Garden Stud Farm, but he secretly controlled more than a dozen entertainment centers in Jingmen Island. He was also the owner of several five-star hotels and one of the main people in charge of an underground money house.
Never did Yang Fei imagine that his sister would provoke such a big trouble. Guo Fugui was a ruthless and ruthless character in Jingmen Island. Almost no one who offended him would have a good end. Yet, there was someone even more powerful behind him. This … this was a disaster that could take his life!
"Big Sis, wait for me. I'll immediately resign to the leader and then we'll leave Jingmen Island as soon as possible," said Yang Fei in a deep voice.
Yang Yan nodded without a word. She looked at her brother's receding back and felt guilty. Ever since their parents passed away five years ago, the two of them had been relying on each other for survival. Although she worked to earn money to support her brother's college education, he never asked her for a penny after his graduation. Instead, he often used his salary to buy things for her instead.
But this time …
It was her who implicated him and forced him to flee to the ends of the world.
Yang Fei strode to the boarding entrance and looked at Ouyang Yun. He hesitated and said, "General Manager, I want to resign."
"Give me a reason."
Ouyang Yun said indifferently.
"My sister has offended someone. We need to leave Jingmen Island immediately," said Yang Fei bitterly.
Ouyang Yun was flabbergasted and asked, "Offended someone? Who did you offend? "
Yang Fei knew about the Paradise Club's backer and Ouyang Yun's identity. After pondering for a moment, he whispered, "Guo Fugui."
