What do you mean by saying that the corpses I sew are all ominous creatures?

Led by a waiter, we walked through an antique-style corridor and pushed open the door to a luxurious private room called "Peony Pavilion".

The private room was very spacious and decorated in a magnificent style.

I looked up and saw a middle-aged man sitting at a large mahogany round table.

He was wearing a well-tailored designer suit and a conspicuous gold watch on his wrist.

She was slightly chubby, but her hair was always neatly combed.

However, he doesn't look to be in very good condition right now.

This man was none other than Boss Wang, who orchestrated tonight's event.

At this moment, he held a half-burnt cigar between his fingers, his brows furrowed, and his eyes revealing undisguised anxiety.

Hearing the door open, he immediately stood up and quickly went to greet him.

"Oh, Mr. Jin, you've finally arrived!"

Boss Wang gripped Jin Wanliang's hand tightly, then his gaze fell on Li Qing and me, with a hint of inquiry.

"These two are the experts you were talking about, right?"

"Boss Wang, let me introduce myself to you."

Jin Wanliang patted the other person's shoulder familiarly, turned to the side and pointed at me, saying.

"This is Mr. Chen, and this is Mr. Li next to him."

I went to great lengths to get those two out of retirement. With them here, no matter what kind of monsters or demons are on your construction site tonight, they'll keep you safe and sound.

Boss Wang quickly extended his hand, adopting a very humble posture:

"Mr. Chen, Mr. Li, I've heard so much about you."

Please take care of things tonight.

A generous reward will be given once the matter is accomplished.

"Boss Wang, you're too kind. I'm just doing my job, since I'm being paid to do this."

I smiled, reached out my hand, and gently shook his.

In the instant we shook hands, I took a good look at Mr. Wang's face under the bright lights of the private room.

He had deep dark circles under his eyes, and a faint gray-black mist lingered between his eyebrows, giving him an aura of weariness and coldness.

It seems that there are indeed some unsavory things hiding at his construction site on the outskirts of the city.

And it has already begun to backfire on him, the person in charge.

After we were seated, the waiter served us the finest tea.

Boss Wang picked up his teacup, took a small sip, and seemed to be carefully considering his words.

"Mr. Jin, Mr. Chen, Mr. Li."

Boss Wang put down his teacup and said softly.

"Boss Lei and Master Qingyunzi will probably arrive in a while."

To avoid causing unnecessary misunderstandings and trouble, I came up with a solution.

When they arrive, we'll announce to the public that you two are my business partners and that you've come to the construction site with me specifically tonight to handle this matter.

Do you think this arrangement is acceptable?

I nodded slightly upon hearing the suggestion.

This is indeed a reasonable arrangement.

Since Boss Lei has such unwavering faith in Qingyunzi, if we appear directly as a feng shui master or a sorcerer, it would be tantamount to slapping Boss Lei in the face and making Qingyunzi lose face.

Attending as a partner allows one to legitimately accompany the team to the construction site while avoiding unnecessary disputes beforehand.

This aligns perfectly with our initial intention of not wanting to cause trouble and simply wanting to stand guard for the money.

"No problem, Mr. Wang has considered everything very thoroughly."

I nodded and agreed.

"We're just business people here tonight to watch the show. As long as nothing serious happens, we won't get involved."

Seeing that I agreed so readily, Boss Wang breathed a long sigh of relief, and the worry on his face eased a little.

Jin Wanliang tried to smooth things over by saying some polite business talk, and the atmosphere in the private room gradually eased.

About half an hour later, a series of steady and powerful footsteps came from outside the private room.

Immediately afterwards, the door to the private room was pushed open from the outside, and two burly bodyguards in black suits walked in first, standing on either side of the door.

Then, a middle-aged man with a powerful aura strode into the private room.

The man was about fifty years old, tall, and wearing a dark-colored Zhongshan suit.

This must be the powerful and influential Boss Lei that Jin Wanliang mentioned.

Beside Boss Lei, a little behind, stood an elderly man dressed in a dark blue Taoist robe.

The old man had white hair and beard, his hair was tied in a bun, and he held a whisk in his hand.

His face was rosy, his steps were light, and his eyes were half-open, exuding an otherworldly and ethereal air.

Judging from his appearance alone, he is definitely a reclusive master who can fool most ordinary people.

"Brother Lei, you've arrived!"

Upon seeing the visitor, Boss Wang immediately sprang up from his chair like a spring, greeting him with a broad smile.

"Please take a seat, please take a seat!"

Boss Lei nodded slightly, his gaze sweeping around the private room before landing on Li Qing and me.

"Xiao Wang, who are these two?"

Boss Lei's voice was deep and resonant.

"Oh, Brother Lei, let me introduce you."

Mr. Wang quickly pointed at us and said.

"These two are my business partners, Mr. Chen and Mr. Li."

They were very interested when they heard we were going to "inspect" the construction site tonight, and insisted on coming along to see it for themselves.

"Boss Lei, I've long admired your name."

I stood up and nodded with a smile, neither humble nor arrogant.

Li Qing also stood up and gave a perfunctory bow.

Boss Lei simply gave a faint "hmm" and sat down in the main seat without saying anything more.

That attitude clearly showed that they didn't take us, their so-called "partners," seriously.

Shortly after Mr. Lei sat down, Mr. Wang instructed the waiter to start serving the dishes.

During the meal, waiters began to move around in a continuous stream, bringing out one exquisite private dish after another to the round table.

To my surprise, the meal went exceptionally well.

There were no dramatic incidents like those in novels, where the villains looked down on people and made provocative remarks.

Master Qingyunzi was very kind and gentle in his dealings with people.

He speaks slowly and deliberately, quoting classical texts and occasionally throwing out philosophical Taoist anecdotes.

He not only managed to win over Boss Lei and Boss Wang, but he also showed no contempt for me and Li Qing, two "outsiders".

Instead, they would smile and urge us to eat more vegetables.

It must be said that this person's refinement and emotional intelligence truly match his otherworldly and dignified appearance.

However, I was not fooled by his appearance.

While eating, I discreetly picked up some food with my chopsticks, focusing my attention on the area between my eyebrows.

I subtly channeled a cool aura and secretly scanned Qingyunzi's body several times.

However, I did not sense even the slightest fluctuation of internal energy or detect any trace of magical power in this "living deity".

There are usually only two possibilities when this happens.

Either his cultivation has reached the realm of returning to simplicity and authenticity.

Like a master like Tian Gong or Zhang Xuanqing, they can perfectly conceal all their aura.

Or perhaps he really is, as Jin Wanliang just said, a complete fraud.
