Text Chapter 361: Ten Years (Part 1)

Beifeng City, Li Family Headquarters, Li Mingfang's leather shoes tapped rhythmically on the ground, making knocking sounds.

Li Wanxue was by his side, and at this moment, she did not have that kind of sharp feeling at all, but instead had a quiet and mature girl's posture.

They were standing in front of a villa, and there were black-clad bodyguards everywhere. However, they did not go in.

"Oh? Isn't this the fourth brother?" A middle-aged man, with his hands behind his back, walked out slowly with a man wearing a black mask on his face. Looking at him standing in front of the door, a square face showed a smile that could be called elegant: "I haven't seen you for so long, are you okay? I heard that my niece's spiritual addiction broke out some time ago, and my uncle was very worried. Come...Xiaoxue, this is an antique that my uncle bought abroad. I was just saying when to give it to you. Come, take it, don't be polite with your uncle."

Li Wanxue was wearing a snow-white evening dress, just like a snowflake in winter. Her hair was elegantly tied up, with a red rose pinned behind her head, like blood in the snow, bright eyes, white teeth, and eyebrows like distant black. She didn't look like a girl at all. Although she looked young, she exuded the smell of a mature lady.

It was already January, and the weather was cold, but she didn't seem to be afraid of the cold. Her round shoulders outside the off-shoulder evening dress were as smooth as pearls. Her high chest and deep ravines made the men around the middle-aged man couldn't help but look at her several times.

"Thank you, second uncle." She bowed slightly like a swan, her voice seemed to be playing "Night Piano Music," and smiled slightly: "But I already have a pair of earrings given by my mother."

The middle-aged man did not take out the so-called gift at all. Seeing her say this, he also smiled kindly: "Look, second uncle's good intentions did not do a good thing. Wait until the Spring Festival family dinner, second uncle will prepare a new gift for you."

"Then thank you, second uncle."

The middle-aged man and his group walked past Li Mingfang, and suddenly seemed to remember something, and clapped his hands: "By the way, fourth brother, the old man is now doing the final statistics of the Li family's assets before the Spring Festival. We have all made good profits, but I heard that you are a little tight on money recently? I'm afraid the old man is not doing well there."

"Thank you, second brother, for your trouble." Li Mingfang said indifferently: "I will make it clear to the old man."

The middle-aged man smiled implicitly and left with several other people. After walking a short distance, the masked man walking side by side with the middle-aged man turned his head slightly and said in a hoarse voice: "I heard that he found a new spiritual master."

"I don't know where this wild dog came from." The middle-aged man's face had long lost a trace of elegance. He snorted coldly, and then immediately smiled and said: "Before, it was Master Xiao who was there. We didn't consider that piece of land for the sake of Master. Now, Master Xiao was driven away. Next year is Master's once-in-a-decade thank-you banquet. Master is so protective of his shortcomings that he will definitely be furious. He has caused trouble for our Li family. After a few months of declining profits, he still has the face to come to our family?"

The masked man nodded lightly, said nothing, and walked out together.

"Dad." They left, Li Wanxue raised her head, her eyes also turned cold: "This is the last time."

"I really don't have the time to play with these idiots. In the future, I won't come to my family again during the New Year."

Li Mingfang sighed, said nothing, and nodded after a long time: "I'm sorry for making things difficult for you."

"I'm not blaming you." Li Wanxue shook her head gently: "As the daughter of the Li family, I have long been aware of it, but I really don't like this hypocritical atmosphere. As a man, I can't be more open-minded. I look down on such people."

"Fourth Master." At this time, a thin man in a suit and leather shoes, with an elite temperament all over his body, came out: "Master, please come in."

Li Mingfang took Li Wanxue and walked in immediately. Inside was an antique room, warm as spring. On a master's chair, a bald old man in a double-breasted jacket was wearing reading glasses and looking at the information in his hand bit by bit.

There was no question or answer. The two sat down quietly, and there was only a rustling sound in the room. After a long time, the old man took off his reading glasses and raised the report in his hand: "Just because of a newly hired spiritual master, your profit dropped by 20%?"

The news spread so quickly, Li Mingfang had expected it, he immediately stood up and said: "Dad, I think he deserves it."

The old man waved his hand: "Now I am the chairman of Li's, there is no father here."

"Yes, Mr. Li."

"I heard he is very young?" Mr. Li sat on the chair, and a middle-aged woman immediately came over to help him massage his shoulders. Mr. Li squinted comfortably: "Tell me about it?"

"Yes... Mr. Li, he is indeed very young. However, according to the news sent back by Master Tian, ​​he defeated Master Xiao with one move. I suspect that his strength is at least a high-level spiritual master. Master Tian said that this Master Xu is even a special..."

"Nonsense."

"Yes... ah?" Li Mingfang was about to continue, but was stunned by these two words.

"I said you are kidding!" Old Master Li suddenly opened his eyes, and his voice burst out like a mountain torrent: "Master Xiao, that is a quasi-high-level spiritual master! He defeated Master Xiao with one move, that is a high-level spiritual master! All the information of the twelve high-level spiritual masters is secret! The twelve zodiac signs, no one knows any of their background information! Our Li family spent a huge price to invite Master Wu Ma to take charge! Only then did we have more than ten years of vigorous development! What about you! You are a high-level spiritual master? Or Master Xu! Do you believe it?"

"Mr. Li... this is Master Tian..."

"Okay, let's not talk about this for now." Mr. Li's beard was shaking wildly: "Any spiritual master hired by the Li family must be strictly considered! What kind of return can he bring to the Li family! His How does the reward compare to his reward?"

He stood up, his body shaking with anger, and waving the report in his hand: "Is this your reward? Huh? Give up the A-31 area for more than ten years! How much did I pay to win this piece of land? The price has not been paid yet! You still have to pay tens of millions of dollars every year! Just because of this, you gave it to a young man of unknown origin! Zhao defeated Master Xiao? 'I ask you, do you believe it?"

"Grandpa...he is not..."

"Shut up!" Mr. Li turned to Li Wanxue and shouted angrily, and Li Wanxue obediently shut her mouth.

He picked up the crutch next to the Grand Master's chair and chopped it on the ground. Although his body was aging, his spirit was still strong: "No? What is it? His origin is unknown? Where is his certification? Have you seen it? Who is the master? Who? Self-study can surpass advanced level? Reiki verification level?

He looked at Li Mingfang and his daughter with disappointment: "You haven't seen any of them! How dare you give him A-31!"

"I know that you have been suppressed by your younger brothers, sisters, and brothers, and you want to make achievements. But it doesn't matter if you can't make achievements! You are in a hurry and seek medical treatment!"

"And!" He took a step forward and jerked his crutches: "I heard... that he won't be on a mission within five years? Master Xiao is nothing enough. Why don't you invite someone with a bigger name? Five years? Five years? 20% or more? Should I let other children dilute your shares?”

"No...Director Li, listen to me..."

"I don't want to hear it." Mr. Li breathed a sigh of relief and sat down: "This matter makes me so disappointed in you."

"Director Li..." Li Mingfang gritted his teeth and finally said his first complete sentence under the angry Mr. Li: "I believe him."

The room suddenly became quiet.

Mr. Li didn't speak anymore. He just looked at him like an eagle. After a long time, he snorted coldly and flicked the report. It was all over the sky: "Okay... My wings are hard and I want to fly. I don't even listen to my words anymore." "

"No..." Li Mingfang gritted his teeth and said, "It is precisely because I have seen him that I believe him."

No one would know the shock of that fire dragon. Li Mingfang knew very well that this kind of thing should never be told outside! He didn't know what Xu Yangyi's cultivation level was, but he understood that this person was very scary, very scary!

At least not inferior to a high-level spiritual master! Although he didn’t believe the answer! Where can there be such a young high-level spiritual master!

There was silence again, and after a long time, Mr. Li finally spoke.

"I think you should also know that now, the Li family is trying to expand its influence in the capital city of Baiji. Trying to break into the real top nobles." He slowly picked up a cup of tea and took a sip: "Next year, ten In the next month, there will be a spiritual master battle to determine the ownership of our first research institute in the third ring of Baiji City. Let Master Xu help us seize this land."

After saying that, he raised his head and looked at Li Mingfang without emotion: "If he doesn't go, or he can't do it, then Mr. Wu Ma will personally take action and take back the land for the Li family."

"Your Excellency Wu Ma!" Li Mingfang gasped, his scalp numb.

The Wu Horse in the Chinese zodiac... one of the twelve high-level spiritual masters! Offerings from the Li family! It’s also the Li family’s trump card! The pillar of the Li family!

"Director Li, this is not necessary..."

"It's not you who decides whether it's necessary, but me. Maybe for you now, only the facts can make you clear. Now, let's go."

Winter passes and spring comes, flowers fade and bloom, and in the blink of an eye, a year passes quickly.

The Li family is still the same Li family, but Xu Yangyi completely disappeared from people's sight, as if he had never been in this world.

Everyone in the A-31 area within a radius of 20,000 meters has been cleared. There is no way for people to live inside the crystallized mountain. No one can feel that here, the spiritual energy is condensing at a slow speed, becoming more and more concentrated... It has even reached the level of some county-level cities on the earth!

This place... is completely suitable for practice!

In the villa, Tian Guotao respectfully poured a cup of tea. Today is the time when Master Xu gives him a lecture every month, and he regards this day as the day of his rebirth.

Quietly looking at his face reflected in the tea cup, there was even a hint of black in his white hair.
