Under One Person: I Opened the Age of Mythology

Chapter 182 Detonation, the Lion and the Mouse!

About half an hour later.

Xia Ye appeared outside a five-star hotel in Guangdong. Although the company is actually a "state-owned enterprise", it is privately owned to the outside world. In order to avoid any loopholes, there are naturally no rules such as "meal standards".

He hid his body and went up to the top floor, and came to the door of the presidential suite. Xia Ye ignored the bodyguards standing at the door and appeared inside the door in a flash.

Walking all the way to the bedroom, Xia Ye saw a figure sitting quietly by the window. He had a long face and a crew cut, and looked to be in his fifties, with a shrewd look.

Bi Youlong, the only open "hawk" on the company's board of directors and the strongest contender for the position of chairman, of course, has now been replaced inwardly, and in fact he has been poisoned by the domain.

He did not show up immediately, but walked around the house a few times, checked two or three times with "Mingli", and confirmed that there was no surveillance or eavesdropping, only then did Xia Ye feel relieved.

The next second, he turned around and closed the door, and at the same time, he pulled the curtains with a flick of his finger. Yu Huadu reacted immediately and grinned:
"coming?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xia Ye appeared on the chair opposite him and went straight to the point:

"What about people?"

"here."

As Yu Huadu spoke, he took out his own space magic weapon and activated it with his true Qi. A figure immediately appeared on the bed. It was Bi Youlong himself who was in a restricted state!
"Well, let me see."

Seeing Bi Youlong appear, Xia Ye stood up without saying a word. With a thought, blue light appeared on his palm, simulating the Double Hand, and began to check this guy's memory.

And a moment later...

"Sure enough, this guy and Qu Tong are just partners. He wants to rely on Qu Tong's power to get to the top... I can only say that he is worthy of being called a 'hawk'. He is really bold!"

Xia Ye couldn't help but sigh.

but……

Then, Xia Ye smiled again: "This way, the situation is very favorable for us. Whether it is to find out Qu Tong or to control the company, it will be a natural thing."

According to Bi Youlong's memory, even during the more than one year of the company's massive search, he and Qu Tong still kept in touch. It's no wonder, in order to get promoted, he still needed Qu Tong, and Qu Tong also needed the company's power to help her make a comeback!

Of course……

Even if Bi Youlong took the position, the company's rules could not be broken. He could not allow Qu Tong to do whatever she wanted, so all he could promise was to help her take revenge on the Lu family after the incident and make sure that everyone in the Lu family would be killed without a burial place.

Over the years, the Lu family has always been united, so in order not to alert the enemy, Qu Tong would not go looking for trouble with those disciples who were away. In addition, she was not sure whether the Lu family's soul-clearing technique had the ability to detect her soul methods, so she kept her troops on hold to avoid alerting the enemy.

Until recently...

"Recently, Qu Tong and Bi Youlong have been in frequent contact. Although they were only asking about the company's developments and some trivial news, it was enough to show that...she was preparing to take action again in the near future."

After finishing the check, Xia Ye raised his head.

"This is also the reason why Bi Youlong chose to contact you at this point. Not only because he has caught your 'handle', but also because he has noticed Qu Tong's thoughts and is also preparing to take action!"

As he spoke, Xia Ye took out his own space magic weapon and took Bi Youlong into it. He would deal with this guy later. Right now, there were more important things to do:

"What you need to do next is to act according to what Bi Youlong originally wanted to do and perform this scene well!"

The "drama" he mentioned was naturally Bi Youlong's attempt to win over the newly appointed head of the South China region and secretly plot for the position of chairman. For Bi Youlong, now was the most appropriate time.

After all, you have to know that the problems between Qu Tong and Yaoxing Society, Quan Xing and the "Masked Man" have lasted for nearly two years, but the company still has no gains or news...

Therefore, Liao Zhong’s dismissal is just the beginning. If anything major happens during this period, the next person to face the "storm" will definitely be Zhao Fangxu!
"No matter how capable and powerful Zhao Fangxu is, or how many contributions he has made over the years, if he can no longer meet the requirements of the higher-ups, it is only a matter of time before he is removed from his position and replaced. After all, what the higher-ups want is stability..."

"And if you can take advantage of this opportunity to make a great contribution as Bi Youlong and solve some problems that have troubled the company for a long time, then the higher-ups will definitely give you priority consideration, and the position of the new chairman will basically be settled!"

"Row!"

After hearing Xia Ye's words, Yu Huadu nodded immediately. He was naturally aware of all these situations and had already made preparations.

only……

"What about Qu Tong? This matter still needs Qu Tong's cooperation. Only if she makes a big fuss first, all the plans can go on!"

In fact, the plan of Qu Tong and Bi Youlong was very simple, that is, one cooperated with each other in the open and the other in secret. Qu Tong was responsible for causing trouble and Bi Youlong was responsible for suppressing it. In this way, Bi Youlong could be one step ahead of others in everything, and Zhao Fangxu would take the blame and take the credit.

But in this way, all the initiative is in Qu Tong's hands. Bi Youlong has no control over when she will take action and what she will do. He can only communicate in general terms, and the details depend on Qu Tong's intentions.

"This is easy. If we just want to cause trouble, why do we need Qu Tong? We can handle this ourselves!"

Xia Ye smiled without hesitation.

"Oh? You mean!"

"That's right. When the time comes, I will directly arrange people to cause trouble in various places, and then put the blame on Qu Tong. At that time, you only need to take action at the right time to overthrow Zhao Fangxu!"

"That Qu Tong..."

"Qu Tong is easy to deal with. I'll handle it. We already have the communication magic weapon between her and Bi Youlong. We can use it. After all, Bi Youlong has coveted the position of chairman for a long time. It's no problem for him to choose to cooperate with others while she is lying low."

Xia Ye narrowed his eyes.

"Besides, the layout of China is the result of her years of hard work. She must have been very anxious when we destroyed it before. Now that she has made some changes, she will never give up the opportunity of Bi Youlong to make a comeback. As long as we provoke her a little..."

"understood!"

In this way, all the plans have become clear. Yu Huadu temporarily stopped his travels, and the original body personally played the role of Bi Youlong and began to proceed according to the plan.

And what about Xia Ye...

After explaining the details, he returned to the clinic, took out the magic ring he found from Bi Youlong, and began to observe it.

"Um……"

It can be seen that this ring should have been refined by Ma Xianhong using the "Divine Machine Hundred Refinings". It is of very high quality and will be bound to the holder after being injected with true Qi. If any external force wants to try to rebind, the "self-destruct setting" will be activated, and other people holding the ring will also feel it.

"It's prudent..."

However, just because others cannot use it does not mean that Xia Ye cannot use it. Now he is able to simulate Bi Youlong's true energy and soul fluctuations without triggering the restrictions. He can even completely erase the restrictions on the ring if he wants.

But for the sake of safety, he did not do so, but directly activated "Understanding". At this time, he could see the mysterious connection between this ring and other rings, an invisible thread that penetrated into the void and extended into the distance...

"..."

"It's not that simple..."

After feeling it for a moment, Xia Ye withdrew his gaze. He wanted to try to see if he could find Qu Tong through the connection of this ring, but it was obviously impossible now. If he really wanted to do this... he had to at least wait until he pushed open the "Door to the Top"!

Of course, he is just trying now and is not in a hurry. As the oriole behind the mantis, he already has control over the overall situation. He only needs to stay put and wait and see...

In order to prepare for future plans, he immediately contacted Xiao Zizai and gathered all of them. Since they were going to do something big this time, they might as well all come together!
call!
With this thought in mind, he immediately activated the "Fire Escape" and headed straight for Nasen Island...

……

……

After this……

Everything seemed to have returned to calm.

But beneath the water surface, invisible to most people, a turbulent undercurrent has already gathered.

One week later in the morning...

The Domain Poison Station came to Director Zhao's office. Of course, it was his avatar to pretend to be the head of the South China Region, and the reason why Director Zhao wanted to find him was very simple and direct:
"I heard that Lao Bi invited you to dinner last week... Did you go?"

"Ah! He went! The director of the company came to me specially, so I can't not give him face!"

Yu Huadu nodded immediately, acting extremely frankly.

"..."

"Okay, so what's the situation in the South China region recently? Are there any problems?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Fangxu looked at him deeply, a light flashed on his glasses, and he continued to ask.

"As for the problem... apart from the fact that there is still no news about the wanted person, there is nothing else. Have you received any news?"

The domain-changing poison was flawless and directly threw the problem back.

"Um……"

"I did receive some news. I heard that a strange thing happened in southern China these two days. Some people said they saw an unknown light in the sky at night, which seemed to be a UFO. Do you know about this?"

Zhao Fangxu nodded and then said.

"Oh, you mean this matter? I sent people to check it out, but they didn't find anything. I have also arranged for people to stay there day and night. But according to my estimation, it is very likely that the people have made a mistake..."

Domain poison answers.

"Besides, if it really is a UFO, then this matter is not our responsibility, right? As long as there is such a situation, 'those guys' will naturally take action. From the perspective of intelligence alone, they are better than us!"

"Are you okay? That's good..."

There is no doubt that this "special summons" was a test by Director Zhao against Yu Huadu. As his newly promoted confidant, this guy having dinner with his rival Bi Youlong would definitely attract his attention, so he would naturally give him a reminder.

So, after some pleasantries and understanding of other situations, Zhao Fangxu got straight to the point and started typing:

"You also know that the current situation is very delicate. Since the previous 'alarm' has not been lifted for a long time, the higher-ups have paid attention to it. You must be very careful at this time and must not make any mistakes!"

"Especially in your South China, it is a troubled place. The Gu Masters in Miaojiang are difficult to manage, and there are also the problems left over from the previous bunkers. In addition, there are searches and arrests for various parties. It is difficult to sort out the clues for the time being..."

"And now that you have just taken office, it is time to earn performance. If you can't make some achievements for your superiors to see, I am afraid you won't be able to stay in this position of regional head for long."

As he spoke, Zhao Fangxu took out a stack of documents from the drawer and handed them to Yu Huadu:
"These were just sent from Jianghu Inn last night. They contain information about Quan Xing's people in South China and the whereabouts of the remnants of Yaoxing Society. You should lead a search as soon as you return... I think you will get something."

"Also, I know you had some problems some time ago that you didn't dare to report. As a new official who was transferred across regions and was unfamiliar with the local situation, it was inevitable that mistakes would be made. I have already arranged for someone to handle this matter. Don't worry, just do your best in the future."

"This……"

Hearing this, Yu Huadu finally showed a look of surprise on his face, as if he didn't expect Director Zhao to know so quickly, and his expression suddenly became panic. "Director Zhao, you..."

"Okay, you don't need to say anything more. Just be clear about many things. Everyone makes mistakes when they are young. The key is your attitude after making a mistake."

Zhao Fangxu smiled slightly, with a gentle look on his face.

It has to be said that, judging from the overall direction of the company today, Mr. Zhao is indeed the most suitable leader. His decision-making, wisdom and means of winning people's hearts are far beyond what Bi Youlong can compare to, not to mention his vision and magnanimity.

But precisely because of this, Xia Ye could not let him continue to manage the company. For him, the existence of such an "official opponent" was by no means a good thing. If he was not careful, things could easily get out of control.

The best game...

It is to force the opponent to leave the table!
"understand!"

Hearing this, Yu Huadu's eyes suddenly flashed, and then he showed a firm look and nodded vigorously.

"Please rest assured, Mr. Zhao!"

"Well, go ahead and solve the problem as soon as possible."

"Yes!"

Just like that, Yu Huadu left Mr. Zhao's office with a grateful look on his face, and immediately left the head office and headed for the airport...

At this moment, Mr. Zhao was standing in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling window in the office, watching the car he was riding in quickly go away, his eyes fixed.

After that, about half a day passed. After confirming that the domain was poisoned and having no contact with Bi Youlong again, and also eliminating Bi Youlong's spies in South China, Zhao Fangxu finally felt relieved and began to deal with other things.

But he didn't know that at the same time, in Bi Youlong's residence not far from the head office, Bi Youlong's Domain Poison Body had arranged everything and started to contact Xia Ye:

"Hey, Zhao Fangxu really got suspicious and came to talk to me. Now it's all settled. He probably still thinks that the current situation is just about my near-rebellion. This matter has attracted his attention for a week, and I just took this opportunity to lay all the secret lines."

His so-called "hidden line" is that Bi Youlong, a "hawk", uses the resources given by his superiors, the intelligence network cultivated in secret, and the exclusive "private soldiers". The existence of these people is top secret even to the company, and they are Bi Youlong's last trump card!

"Okay, got it..."

After listening to his report, Xia Ye in the clinic nodded and immediately started a communication with the others:

"At 8 o'clock tonight, detonate the 'bomb' in the most prosperous and lively places in each district and give Director Zhao a big surprise!"

"Roger that!"

After receiving everyone's response, he smiled slightly and narrowed his eyes. The existence of the aliens has been covered up for so many years, and the world should also see it...

The truth of this world!
……

……

at the same time.

Outside the mountain gate of Longhu Mountain in Jiangxi.

An old figure was pacing on the stairs, looking hesitant. Although he had made up his mind to come back and take a look, when he actually stood on the stairs, his legs still felt as weak as if they were filled with lead.

no way……

He felt so ashamed that he couldn't bear it. He didn't have the face to do that!
But soon, Zhang Huaiyi's eyes became firm again. When he thought that Senior Brother Tian would be disabled for life and unable to sleep because of this, his heart felt like it was being stabbed by needles, and his legs immediately regained their strength.

Da...da...da!

Then, he began to climb up again, his steps becoming faster and faster. In a moment, the once familiar mountain gate came into view, making his heart beat wildly and his face show nervousness.

Da da...da!

He stood in front of the mountain gate, looking at the three characters "Tianshi Mansion" on the gate that seemed to have never changed. All the past things suddenly emerged in his mind, and he seemed to have returned to his youth...

Thinking back to the past, he had entered and exited this gate countless times, and he didn't care at all every time, even the last time was the same. At that time, he never thought that one day he would stop here and find it difficult to enter.

At this moment……

Noticing this strange old man, the Taoist boy in charge of guarding the gate immediately stepped forward and said, "Sir, the temple is past opening hours now, is there anything I can do for you?"

"Uh……"

Zhang Huaiyi glanced at him and opened his mouth, but was speechless for a moment. After a long silence, he finally replied:

"Please inform the Heavenly Master that Huaiyi is back."

"Huaiyi?"

"Are you an old acquaintance of the old master?"

Hearing this, the Taoist boy suddenly became curious, but before he could ask further questions...

Swish!
A figure suddenly appeared and touched his head:

"Lingquan, the meal is ready, go and eat quickly. I will receive this guest personally."

"Ah? Master, Grandmaster? Oh well, I'll go then!"

"Well, go quickly. You are growing, so you need to eat more..."

"Okay, thank you for your concern, Master!"

Da da da da da!
After the little Taoist boy left, the visitor turned to look at Zhang Huaiyi, raised his eyebrows, and then frowned:

"You guys, you still remember to come back?"

"Master, Senior Brother..."

That’s right, the person who came was Zhang Huaiyi’s senior brother Zhang Zhiwei, also known as the old Heavenly Master. The moment he sensed Zhang Huaiyi’s arrival, the old Heavenly Master immediately rushed over, fearing that this guy would run away again!
"Huh! You still know I'm your senior brother?"

Upon hearing this long-lost name, the old Taoist priest became furious.

"I haven't thought about coming back to visit you for so many years. Do you still have me, your senior brother, and my Longhu Mountain Sect in your heart?"

"This……"

Hearing this, Zhang Huaiyi wanted to respond, but he felt that his senior brother was right. He had been keeping to himself all these years and was really selfish. How could he have the face to say that he still cared about his senior brother and the sect?

For a moment, the scene became awkward. The old Heavenly Master glared at Zhang Huaiyi, while Zhang Huaiyi looked guilty, just as their master, the old Heavenly Master Zhang Jingqing, had commented on them:

A lion!
A mouse!

however……

"puff!"

Suddenly, the old Taoist priest, who had been extremely serious, broke down and couldn't help but grin.

"Alright, alright, I'm just trying to scare you, just come back!"

Snapped!
After saying that, he raised his hand and put it on Zhang Huaiyi's shoulder, just like he did back then, looking very unserious.

"Come on, come in with me and tell me what happened back then and what you have been through all these years!"

"This... Senior Brother, you don't blame me?"

Feeling this sudden, long-lost, yet extremely familiar warmth, Zhang Huaiyi was in a trance for a moment. He was nearly a hundred years old, but he seemed to have returned to his youth.

Seeing that he was stunned, the old Taoist smiled again and said:
"Huaiyi, remember, no matter what happened back then, your fellow disciples and Master have never blamed you. You will always be a disciple of Tianshi Mansion, and this will never change!"

(Zhang Zhiwei and Zhang Huaiyi when they were young)
"Senior brother..."

Hearing this, the shame on Zhang Huaiyi's face became even more obvious. He couldn't help but lower his head and clenched his fists.

"Alright, alright, now that you're back, follow me in. Do you know how much that guy in Jinzhong has suffered for you? He will definitely be very happy to know that you're back!"

"Oh, by the way, Senior Brother Tian..."

Before Zhang Huaiyi could say more, he felt the scenery in front of him suddenly blurred, and when he reacted, he had already arrived in front of a door.

Knock knock knock!
"Jinzhong, look who's back!"

Immediately afterwards, the old Taoist knocked on the door and pushed it open. A figure sitting cross-legged on the bed suddenly appeared, which stunned Zhang Huaiyi for a moment.

"Tian, ​​Senior Brother Tian..."

When he saw the situation of the person on the bed clearly, Zhang Huaiyi's eyes widened immediately. An uncontrollable sourness suddenly emerged, making his eyes red.

I saw...

The person on the bed had white hair and beard, and was thin. He looked "dry" but it was not because of lack of nutrition, but because of long-term and continuous energy consumption...

Looking at his hands and feet, his hands were covered by wide sleeves, and the outline of his arms was obviously shorter than usual, while his legs were empty at the bottom of his trousers, with no trace of his feet at all.

“Huai, Huai Yi?!”

When the person on the bed saw who was coming, his eyes widened with a look of disbelief.

"You, you're still alive?!"

"Okay, okay, you must have suffered a lot these years. It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back. Come in and sit down!"

"Senior Brother Tian!"

thump!
And the next second, Zhang Huaiyi knelt down in front of him.

"This is all my fault!"
