I created an extraordinary era

Chapter 240: No hope for immortality?

Looking at the closed elevator door, the receptionist was still standing there in a daze.

It wasn't until the noises around her gradually became noisier that she came to her senses.

Despite this, she still felt like she was dreaming.

Mr. Lin just told me to go to the president’s office to work tomorrow?
You should know that this is the famous Longcheng Group, and those who can enter the president's office are all people with outstanding abilities.

She never imagined that one day she would be like those people.

And all this happened just because of a casual remark made by that young man.

At this time, the people around her looked at her with envy and jealousy.

This front desk clerk is so lucky!
But no one around her thought that she deserved all this.

There is no such thing as a free lunch in the world, and no good thing falls from the sky.

Sometimes, opportunities only last for a moment.

You can only succeed if you seize it.

It was because of her kind actions and extraordinary courage that she was able to receive this reward.

"Xiao Qian, congratulations."

Hearing the compliments from her colleagues, the girl forced a smile and said nothing more.

In fact, she was not as happy as others thought.

"Who is he?"

At this moment, the girl felt mixed emotions.

I am curious about Xia Yuan, but at the same time I am worried about the future.

Even if I have this opportunity, can I really do it?

Compared to others, her starting point is much worse after all.

I have no work experience at all.

With myself like this, even if I go to the president's office now, can I really keep doing it?
Perhaps the young man just had a sudden interest.

But, how much will we remember later?
I'm afraid that in a few days, they will no longer remember me as a person.

She was very clear that the gap in status between the two parties was too huge.

No matter how extraordinary the young man's identity is, it has nothing to do with him.

It is a great favor for the other party to be able to achieve this point today.

……

The two people who had already gotten on the elevator had no idea what the girl was thinking.

"Boss Lin, your company's receptionist is pretty good, much better than any I've seen before!"

Hearing that the other party still addressed him by that name, Lin Feng smiled bitterly and said quickly:
"Mr. Xia, please don't call me Mr. Lin. Just call me by my name."

Over the years, Raymond Lam has been a flawless person.

The immortal initially called him Mr. Lin out of respect, but he was obviously not ungrateful.

Xia Yuan nodded.

In fact, he thinks it doesn't matter what he is called.

Now that the other party has said it, there is no need to dwell on this little thing.

Seeing Xia Yuan nod, he continued:
"Haha, there are many good horses, but there are few good horse trainers."

"Thanks to your keen eye, I was able to discover such a talented person in the company. Thank you for helping me discover this talent."

"..."

Xia Yuan's mouth twitched and he looked at the other person with a strange look.

How can you say such nonsense with such a serious face?

Damn it, how can you say such shameful words?
As expected of a person in a high position, Xia Yuan would never be able to learn to speak at this level in his lifetime.

"how old are you?"

Hearing this, Lin Feng was stunned. Why did he suddenly start asking about his age?
But he didn't hide it.

The last time I was controlled by the other party is still vivid in my mind.

There is no point in lying in front of such a godlike figure.

"I just turned 45 a month ago."

So young?

Awesome.

Xia Yuan couldn't help but say two words in his heart.

To be in this position at this age, it would be impossible without some skills.

No wonder he can talk nonsense so seriously.

If I don’t have a panel, what can I do when I’m 45?

Farming at home, or being unemployed at home in middle age?

Anyway, I guess civil servants don’t have to think about it!

He didn't know the situation before, but after learning about it, he realized that it would be difficult for him with his level.

So by the age of 45, I will probably still have accomplished nothing.

Damn, how can the gap between people be so big?

At this time, Lin Feng on the opposite side thought that Xia Yuan had other deeper meanings when asking this question.

For example, see whether your qualifications and age meet the standards for cultivating immortals.

So he stared at Xia Yuan with a nervous look, trying to see something from the other's face.

"What's wrong? There are flowers on my face?"

Feeling Lin Feng's gaze, Xia Yuan looked puzzled.

He didn't know that such a big shot could think of so many things.

"..."

Ding!
With a sound, the elevator door opened.

We’ve reached the 30th floor!
When the two of them walked out, all eyes around them were focused on them.

They were not looking at Mr. Lin, but at another person next to him.

The moment they saw Xia Yuan's appearance, everyone was stunned for a moment.

This boy is so handsome!

In fact, Xia Yuan has restrained his temperament to the greatest extent.

If he didn't hide it, with his current body after two leaps in life level, it would be enough to attract the attention of all ordinary people.

This state is like a bright light in the dark night.

It will be the focus wherever it is placed.

But the more beautiful something is, the greater the danger it often means.

Xia Yuan didn't know whether ordinary people could still stay safely by his side if he was completely released.

For ordinary people, extraordinary people themselves are a huge threat.

Even if the extraordinary person does nothing, the oppressive force alone is enough to make people afraid, or even die.

"What are you looking at? You all have a lot of free time, right?"

After hearing this, everyone started working as if nothing had happened.

But his eyes still glanced in the direction of the two of them from time to time.

Not until the two men completely disappeared from the office area did the crowd begin discussing again.

"Hey, do you think that guy just now could be Mr. Lin's illegitimate son?"

"I don't think so. They look completely different."

"This is the first time I've seen such a handsome young man. Those celebrities we've seen before can't even compare to him."

Many male colleagues are unhappy when they hear the chattering of female colleagues in the company.

"What's the point of a man being handsome? To be like me, you need to be talented and have substance."

After saying this, he even touched his sparse hair.

"So the Mediterranean is talented and profound?"

"..."

"Besides, look at his relationship with Mr. Lin. How can his status be ordinary?"

"If I were ten years younger, I would definitely stick it on!"

"..."

"Humph, women are superficial."

"Hahaha."

Different from these employees and executives of the company.

After seeing this scene, several middle-aged men frowned and then took out their phones to make a call.

"what's up?"

An old man's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Dad, I have something to report to you."

As he spoke, he told everything he had just seen. "Do you think that young man is Lin Feng's?"

But before he could finish his words, an angry voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Shut up, don't say that again. If I hear you talking nonsense again, don't blame me for breaking your legs."

The old man is the chairman of Longcheng Group.

The person who called to report was one of his sons.

Several people were already worried that the group would be controlled by Lin Feng after the old man passed away, and they were even more confused when they saw him leading a young man over.

But the old man trusts Lin Feng more than his own children.

The old man would rather hand over the group to an outsider than to his own children.

They are helpless about this and don't understand it.

Does the old man really intend to hand over the group to Lin Feng in the future?
After all, he was just a housekeeper in his own family.

Why?
At this moment, the middle-aged man became even more angry when he heard the warning from the other end of the computer.

I was just making a reasonable guess, why did the old man get so angry?
He couldn't help but wonder if the old man was getting senile!

We are obviously a family.

His eyes were uncertain. If he allowed Lin Feng to continue like this, then this business empire built by his family would eventually fall into the hands of the other party.

Just as he was thinking about it, a voice came from the other end of the phone again.

"I'm on my way to the group now."

"Dad, you want to come over?"

Hearing this, a hint of surprise appeared on the middle-aged man's face.

It seems that although my father said this, he is still worried, so he wants to come and see it in person.

"Well, remember what I said."

"You are not to have any discussion about that young man."

"Also, if you meet him, you must be respectful. If you do something stupid and anger him, I can't protect you!"

After hanging up the phone, the middle-aged man stood there in a daze.

What did my father mean by these last words?
What kind of identity does that kid have that would make the old man warn him in such a tone?

And it seems that the old man knows the identity of the young man.

"Could it be that the old man who hasn't come to the group for a long time is because of that young man?"

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but turn his gaze to the obstructed glass wall.

……

"Mr. Xia, please wait a moment. The chairman will be here soon."

Not long ago, when Li Feng just entered the office, he informed the old man about Xia Yuan's arrival.

After all, he has no say in matters involving immortals.

Even though he now has the final say in the group, on the surface he seems to have almost complete control over Longcheng Group.

But this is only the case when the old man does not say anything.

As long as the old man lives, he will be the absolute master of Longcheng Group.

No one can shake his position.

To put it bluntly, the reason why Lin Feng can sit firmly in this position is only due to his ability.

What’s more important is that we have the support of the elders behind us.

In fact, many decisions of the group are directed by the old man behind the scenes.

Don't assume that others know nothing just because they are not in the group.

That would be too much of an underestimation of a man who is almost ninety years old!

Xia Yuan took a sip of tea and nodded.

In fact, he was also quite curious about the chairman who founded Longcheng Group.

You should know that among the top ten groups in Jiuzhou, the chairman of Longcheng Group is the only one who started from scratch.

The life of such a person can be called legendary.

The reason why he knew this news was that Xie Xuan told him yesterday.

From Xie Xuan's words, he also had some understanding of this person.

Bold and careful.

The most important thing is to know how to judge the situation.

In fact, Xia Yuan could see something from the decisions the other party had made before.

That kind of situation is indeed not something that ordinary people can compare to.

"Mr. Xia, we have recently collected a lot of antiques. You can go and take a look later. If there is anything you are interested in, you can take it all."

While waiting, Lin Feng brought up what had happened during this period.

But when Xia Yuan heard this, his expression began to look strange.

Antiquities?

What's the use of that thing itself?

Could it be that there are source energy and skills in it?
Bullshit!
Suddenly, he remembered what the other person said last time.

The other party seemed to have mentioned this matter.

But at that time he didn't care about this little thing at all, so naturally he was too lazy to say anything.

Now it seems that the other party really thinks that the antiques are useful to him.

He was a bit dumbfounded.

Over the past month, the authorities have actually explored some ancient ruins in various parts of Jiuzhou, and naturally saw quite a few antiques.

They had the same idea at first, to see if they could find any clues related to source energy and supernatural beings.

After all, Xia Yuan was able to produce the source crystal, so it was possible that it still existed on Earth.

But unfortunately, they all got nothing.

Not to mention source energy, no trace of the extraordinary was found.

There are a lot of miscellaneous skills and martial arts secrets, but they have nothing to do with the extraordinary.

In fact, there is nothing wrong with their idea.

But no one could have imagined that Xia Yuan's source crystal was not from Earth at all.

"No, these things are of no use to me."

"Those relics can't possibly contain what I need. I'm pretty sure they're just ordinary objects."

Xia Yuan shook his head. It was time to tell these people something!

"I think you've misunderstood something. I'm not the immortal you're talking about, and there are no immortals on Earth."

Hearing this, Lin Feng didn't take it seriously.

He guessed that this was just the other party's humble words.

Perhaps in the eyes of the other party, cultivators are not yet considered immortals.

But in fact, such cultivators are no different from immortals in the eyes of mortals.

"You're joking."

"No, you haven't understood what I mean."

Before he could finish, Xia Yuan interrupted him.

"I do have some skills, but I have nothing to do with being an immortal cultivator, and I don't know the so-called immortal cultivation method."

"From the beginning to the end, I never said that I was a cultivator. This is just your guess."

"So I have no way of teaching you the immortal cultivation method, nor can I lead you on the path to becoming an immortal."

After saying this, Xia Yuan paused for a moment. He wanted to see what kind of changes the other party would have.

Even if he wants to recruit some people, he won't choose them casually.

The mind and character are always the most important, and whether or not one can awaken is secondary.

Sure enough, after hearing this, Lin Feng was stunned.

This was not at all what he had imagined.

Unable to cultivate immortality?

And judging from the other person's expression, it didn't seem like he was lying to me at all.

But in just a moment, Lin Feng returned to normal.

If you are destined to be unable to practice, then the person in front of you is not someone you can afford to offend.

No matter what, the other party's abilities are not something that can be deceived.

I experienced it myself at that time.

He still remembers the fear of facing death.

"So, what is the purpose of your visit this time?"

Lin Feng didn't believe that such a person would come to make fun of him for no reason. The other party must have other purposes.

But a hint of bitterness passed through the corner of his mouth imperceptibly.

In the end, am I just overthinking it?
