What the hell is Zhang Zhiwei doing …
Zhao Fangxu looked at the two of them in front of him and couldn't help but frown slowly. He then pushed up his glasses and said,
"Celestial Master, even if you don't say it explicitly, you're still forcing the higher-ups to do something …"
"What do you mean by forcing …" Celestial Master shook his head calmly and said,
"According to what you said on the phone, Xiao Jiang's recent actions were all in accordance with the company's instructions. He took the initiative to undertake more complicated work than before …"
"The Tang Sect, the Wang Family …"
"These are all under the permission of you and the higher-ups. Step by step, they finally developed to what they are today …"
"Xiao Jiang didn't do anything evil, nor did he go astray. He just agreed with the company's philosophy and acted as a chess piece for you and the higher-ups. He did things that the higher-ups wanted to do but couldn't due to various reasons …"
Zhao Fangxu looked at the gentle old man in front of him and said with a wry smile, "That may be so, but …"
"If you want to condemn someone, you can always find a pretext," Celestial Master continued calmly.
"I didn't go down the mountain this time to force the higher-ups to do something. For the sake of this thick-skinned old man, please let this nephew of mine off …"
"Besides …"
The old man gestured to Liu Xiaojiang, who was still kneeling on the ground. "This nephew of mine hasn't committed any unforgivable mistakes so far. He's just been used as a chess piece by the higher-ups …"
"I don't want to say more about this matter, because whether he's being used or not, this nephew of mine should know …"
"The main purpose of this old man's trip down the mountain this time is to comply with my junior's request. I don't want this old man's only disciple to fall because of the higher-ups' vigilance in times of peace."
"After all, at least until now, he's still a qualified chess piece. At most, in terms of personal ability, he will more or less make the higher-ups feel that it's difficult to control him. But such a thing … How can it be a reason for a person to die?"
"Celestial Master, if Xiao Jiang changes in the future, will you really go down the mountain to clean up the sect?" Zhao Fangxu crossed his arms and lowered his head to think. In the end, he only asked Zhang Zhiwei one thing.
Hearing this …
Liu Xiaojiang, who was kneeling on the ground, couldn't help but raise his head and look at the gentle old man sitting on the sofa.
"If Xiao Jiang really becomes a scourge, then, before he really starts to bring disaster to the world, the first ones to die in front of everyone … must be me and his master," Celestial Master, when he said this sentence, he didn't look at Liu who was kneeling on the ground's, and he didn't … His Master ….. "
Although this sentence didn't directly answer Zhao Fangxu's question, the meaning was extremely clear.
This wasn't just what Celestial Master said to the company and the higher-ups. Although he didn't look at Liu Xiaojiang who was kneeling on the ground when he spoke, these words … were obviously also said to Liu Xiaojiang.
This was how Celestial Master treated Liu Xiaojiang, and also the attitude of Shōichi Tenshi Province towards such a problem!
Hearing such words …
Although Liu Xiaojiang also felt a little disappointed, considering the identity of Celestial Master and Tian, he also understood that the righteous sect had already done everything they could for him.
Even if the old Celestial Master's words today were suspected of coercing him, he was willing to take such a risk for an 'outsider' like him. He was even willing to bet the entire righteous faction that he wouldn't do evil, ignoring the fact that the higher-ups might change their attitude towards the Celestial Master's residence …
This … was a great kindness that he felt that he could never repay!
"Uncle-Master, I …"
"Alright, child, quickly get up from the ground …" Celestial Master smiled at Liu Xiaojiang and said,
"Don't tell me you want Uncle-Master to personally help you up?"
"Uncle-Master, Xiao Jiang understands what you mean. I will definitely not do anything to disgrace the sect …" Liu Xiaojiang slowly got up from the ground and said with a firm look in his eyes.
"If I violate the oath, you don't need to personally clean up the sect. I … will naturally give up on living an ignoble life."
"Tian and I are naturally willing to believe in you, child …" Celestial Master nodded under Zhao Fangxu's gaze, once again expressing his and the Tenshi Province's attitude.
At the side..,
Zhao Fangxu witnessed the deep affection between these two martial nephews. No matter what he thought, he could only smile and nod.
"Little Jiang, you know that I've always believed in you. Otherwise, I wouldn't have agreed to let you join the All-Sex Alliance. This time, this matter was indeed out of my expectations. I didn't expect that the higher-ups would suddenly make things difficult at this critical juncture …"
"But …"
He looked at Liu Xiaojiang, reached out to push up his glasses, and said slowly and meaningfully, "This is also a chance for you.
"Isn't this an opportunity to gain the trust of the higher-ups? Now that you have the entire Zhengyi Faction 'backing' you up, I believe that as long as the higher-ups aren't really crazy, they won't make things too difficult for an outstanding employee like you who has done your best for the company."
"After all, it's unreasonable …"
"If you were a lone wolf, it would be fine. Maybe some things would just be done, and no one would say anything about it …"
"But now, you're not alone. You have the support of the elders in the sect. If they do anything to you, it will most likely blow up the matter. Once it blows up … it will attract a lot of attention, not to mention that it involves the Shōichi Tenshi Province."
At this point, he couldn't help but slowly raise the corners of his mouth.
"Once more people pay attention to it, who can guarantee that the secret will not be leaked out? At that time, the reason why the higher-ups will take action against you, what you have done before, and what role the company and the higher-ups played in it … None of these are small matters."
"If it's not handled properly, the mutants will lose the little trust they have in the company. It's even more likely that they will confirm the true attitude of the higher-ups towards the mutants …"
"I will also find an opportunity to clearly 'remind' them of these negative possibilities before I meet you upstairs. I will completely cut off the cowardly attitude of some of them …"
Hearing this,
Liu Xiaojiang looked at Zhao Fangxu who was present. In the end, he nodded calmly and said,
"Well, thank you for your trust, Chairman Zhao. To be honest, if it weren't for Martial Uncle this time, I might have really done something irrational."
"After all, as you know, including being a pawn for the company and the higher-ups, taking the initiative to undertake more complicated work than temporary work, these are actually not my original intention. The main reason … is also because I need to do this, and the people who need me also need me to do this."
"Because only in this way can I and the people around me be free and unfettered in the peaceful and stable world …"
"Hmm? The people around you? Which family are they from? "Celestial Master keenly noticed the key point in the words and couldn't help but look at Liu Xiaojiang strangely.
"…" Liu Xiaojiang.
"They aren't …"
"Hmm? They?! "Celestial Master's eyes became even stranger.
"Oh, Martial Uncle really couldn't tell that you're actually more …" "This is fun.
"That sounds like fun. I'll have to have a good chat with your master when we get back …"
"Tsk … This Old Tian might still be alive to see his grandchild. No, if he were to carry his grandchild, my peaceful days on the mountain … would be ruined!"
"Xiao Jiang, you're still young. You must pay attention … pay attention … cough … do you understand?"
"…" Liu Xiaojiang.
…
The next day …
Everywhere was connected to the Huabei Region branch.
In the person-in-charge's office.
"What? You let Wang Ye take the baby away?! " As soon as Xu San heard Zhang Chulan's explanation of Feng Bao Bao's whereabouts, he immediately walked forward and grabbed his collar.
"Zhang Chulan!"
"Third Brother, Third Brother … don't worry! That Wang Ye already has his eyes on Bao Bao! "Zhang Chulan hurriedly explained with a smile.
"Anyway, the situation has already forced me to reveal everything to him. Third Brother … don't use suspicious people."
"If you don't believe me, just wait …"
Then, under Xu San's gaze, he immediately took out his mobile phone and dialed Wang Ye's number.
"Hello? Old Wang! Have you entered the mountain? "
"F * ck you!" Wang Ye's exasperated voice suddenly came from the other end of the phone. "There's no signal in the mountain! I didn't bring my satellite phone! "
"Zhang Chulan! Are you trying to fool me?! Who told you to say that you're floating in the air? How many years of cultivation … What the f * ck is this! She hits and scolds when she raises her hand! She's a slave master! I think your Tianjin Guard's Big Show isn't as good as her! "
Feng Bao Bao's voice also came from the phone. "Taoist Master Wang, I did what Zhang Chulan told me to do to you. That's what I did to him …"
"… Who did you learn this from?! Are you human? I should have taught you something good! "
As soon as the king said this.
Zhang Chulan and Xu San both looked at Xu Si.
"…" Xu Si was speechless.
"Alright, alright! I'm sorry, Old Wang! " Zhang Chulan looked at Xu Si, then said into the phone.
"Bao Bao! Skip this part of the plot and treat him as me after the World Society. "
"Oh …" Feng Bao Bao's voice was still calm and natural.
"… There's a plot? You guys really know how to have fun! "Wang Ye's voice was obviously still a little unhappy.
"Hey, alright, Old Wang. It's good that you're fine. Remember to come back as soon as you're done," Zhang Chulan said and hung up the phone, then looked up at Xu San in front of him.
"How was it? Brother San? "
"… Can Wang Ye really be trusted?" Xu San frowned and pushed up his glasses.
"… I'll say it again," Zhang Chulan said with a serious expression. "If you doubt someone, don't use him. If you use him, don't doubt him."
"Besides, we're now at our wit's end. There are people outside who know Bao Bao with bad intentions. This will definitely be the last time she'll be a temporary worker …"
Xu San still didn't feel at ease and said, "But …"
"Alright, don't always doubt this and that. Isn't the reason why we're in contact with outsiders now because we've been forced to this point?" Xu Si sat in front of his desk and interrupted Xu San. Then, he lit a cigarette and put it in his mouth.
"Zhang Chulan, you did well this time. You even got Xu Xin out, and Chairman Zhao was also tormented by you …"
"Chairman Zhao? What's wrong? "Zhang Chulan was stunned.
"It's nothing. He has to clean up the mess for you, the Tang Sect, and Xu Xin," Xu Si explained.
"He has to find out the attitude of the major sects, especially those that involve the 36 people. The others aren't important enough … so he has to go over personally to appease them."
At this point, a complicated look flashed in his eyes. Then, he slowly said,
"Chairman Zhao is important enough. Going over personally is enough to give him face. This matter shouldn't be brought up in the open anymore. But in the end, just as he came back from a trip around the country, before he could even sit down, something happened on our side …"
"Something happened?" Zhang Chulan subconsciously frowned. "Fourth Brother …"
"The Wang family is gone," Xu Si said.
"Huh? What's gone? "Zhang Chulan didn't seem to hear clearly for a moment.
"The Wang family is gone …" Xu Si put his feet on the table, leaned back in his chair, and took a puff of his cigarette. "Exterminated. Not a single mutant from the Wang family is left. Even Old Man Wang, one of the ten, has been beheaded …"
Hearing this..,
Zhang Chulan was stunned on the spot. His eyes were wide open, and no one knew what he was thinking. It was only after more than ten seconds that he subconsciously swallowed his saliva.
"The Wang family, one of the four big families, was actually destroyed … Who did it?"
"That's the problem …" Xu Si put down his legs and threw the cigarette butt into the ashtray. He looked at Zhang Chulan with a serious face and said,
"In one night, not a single mutant from the Wang family was left. Even one of the ten, Wang Ai, wasn't spared. Moreover, the traces left behind at the scene were very strange. It even pointed to a single person …"
"A single person was able to destroy the Wang family, who had a Spirit Hunter, alone …" Zhang Chulan understood and said in disbelief.
"Could it be that my Grand Master, he …"
"Don't talk nonsense!" Xu Si immediately interrupted.
"What is Celestial Master's identity? How could no one know that he went down the mountain? How could he go down the mountain quietly and then go all the way to the Wang family to kill them? The next morning, he appeared on Mount Longhu again … Do you think he can fly or clone himself?"
"At present, according to the only clues we have, the company speculates that the person who destroyed the Wang family is very likely to be Yinggou, who suddenly appeared recently …"
"Yinggou?" Zhang Chulan instantly thought of the figure in a long gown and mask. She asked suspiciously,
He doubted it and said, "The reason why he didn't stay at the Tang Sect and heard about the past from Xu Xin was because he came back alone to deal with the Wang family … Why?"
"Destroy the Wang family … Even if it's for the sake of the Spirit Hunter, with Yinggou's personality, how could he do something so extreme?"
"Let's not talk about this first …" Xu Si didn't pay too much attention to Zhang Chulan's description of Yinggou. Instead, he suddenly asked with a strange look in his eyes.
"Chu Lan, apart from outsiders like you, is it possible that half of the Leifa in Tenshi Province could have wandered outside?"
Hearing this,
Zhang Chulan looked at Xu Si thoughtfully. "Fourth Brother, what do you mean? Do you really think that the Celestial Master Residence is behind the Wang Family's incident …"
"So …" When Xu Si heard this, he immediately felt a headache coming on. He rubbed his temples and said,
"Chu Lan, are you telling me that the Leifa in Tenshi Province couldn't have wandered outside …?"
Zhang Chulan nodded slightly and said, "My grandfather, it should be just an accident …"
"Fourth Brother, do you think this Yinggou …"
Before he finished speaking, he saw Xu Si's rare serious expression and his heart couldn't help but thump.
