The Leisurely Life of a Young Man in the World of Cultivation

Upon hearing this voice, Lu Changfeng grinned.

"Oh ho, so you're about to make your move?"

"I was getting a little impatient too!"

Although both of their offices were soundproofed, since they possessed divine sense, there was no difference between soundproofing and non-soundproofing unless there was a special defensive array.

As it was time to leave work, Lu Changfeng prepared to go out and have dinner with Li Mingfei and the others.

Many employees greeted Lu Changfeng excitedly when they saw him on the way.

"Hello, Deputy Director Lu!"

"Hello, Deputy Director Lu!"

"Hello, Deputy Director Lu!"

Lu Changfeng responded with a smile.

He could understand their excitement.

After all, everyone had seen Huo Chongwu's misconduct before, so they were all worried about what would happen if they were expelled.

The employees on the first floor were mostly at the mid-stage of Qi Refining, with very few at the late stage, and occasionally even at the early stage. They had little confidence in facing Huo Chongwu.

Now things are fine. As long as they complete their original tasks, even if Huo Chongwu causes any more trouble, they won't be fired.

The reason is that he's blocking the way from behind! How could they not be agitated?

Once outside the mall, Lu Changfeng looked around and quickly found where Li Mingfei was.

"Haha, Brother Lu, you've finally arrived! Come, come, have a seat!"

"You've finally arrived! I've been so bored lately!"

After hearing what he said, he couldn't help but become curious as well.

"What happened? Tell me in detail!"

Although a private office allows him to slack off whenever he wants, and he can also use his divine sense to enjoy himself.

But gossiping alone is no fun; it's much more enjoyable when you're discussing it. Otherwise, why would the village aunties gather in a group?

Sure enough, the next moment Li Mingfei took a sip of his drink and began to rant and rave.

"Brother Lu, you have no idea, ever since you left the fresh milk counter, a guy in his twenties or thirties has been assigned to work for you!"

"Good heavens, Uncle Xie and I even went over to help at first, but guess what? He blamed us, saying we didn't like him, so we made Huo Chongwu feel idle, then let him go out to recruit people, and then deducted his wages if he couldn't recruit any? Didn't that just get him killed?"

Pfft!

Upon hearing this, Lu Changfeng suddenly spat out a mouthful of tea.

"Cough cough cough, good heavens, did this guy really say that?"

"But what he said makes a lot of sense!"

Although Luoyun Shopping Mall offers high salaries, Huo Chongwu is still good at causing trouble, especially when those rules were first introduced. Who wasn't afraid?

Then he quickly pressed for more information.

"And now?"

Hearing him say that, Li Mingfei sighed again.

"Now, that kid has directly sided with Huo Chongwu. At first, he would just hand over the fresh milk counter business to Uncle Xie in the afternoon, but after that, he disappeared from the start of the workday."

"You can't even say a few words now!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Changfeng immediately frowned.

While the previous points are somewhat understandable—after all, in Huo Chongwu's situation, a junior employee would indeed be afraid—it's worth noting that...

But what happened next was going too far. They pushed their own work onto Uncle Xie. What were they trying to do?

Now, who in the entire mall doesn't know that he has a good relationship with Xie Zhixing and Li Mingfei?

Or does this guy think he can't deal with Huo Chongwu on his own?

Since that's the case, then don't blame me for being impolite!

"Alright, I'll handle this. They like to cause trouble, don't they? Well, I'll let them cause some trouble!"

It just so happens that we need to deal with Huo Chongwu today, and then it will be a piece of cake to take care of these small fry.

"Hey, this is good, this is good!"

Hearing that Lu Changfeng was going to deal with these people, Li Mingfei was obviously very happy.

Although Huo Chongwu's antics had little impact on him and Xie Zhixing during this period, the work environment still made him somewhat worried.

Wouldn't it be better to just laze around instead of causing trouble?

Then he cautiously glanced around before moving closer to Lu Changfeng.

"Brother Lu, I think that guy's gaze towards you is weird!"

"That Huo Chongwu guy is definitely up to no good, you'd better watch out these days!"

hiss!

At this moment, Lu Changfeng looked at Li Mingfei with a hint of surprise.

He hadn't expected Li Mingfei to discover this.

"Wow, you're quite observant!"

"Okay, I got it! By the way, I heard there's going to be thunder later, so don't go back to the sect. With your small frame, you'll definitely be finished if you get struck by lightning."

Although cultivators in the cultivation world are powerful, even those in the Qi Refining stage can fly using sword control techniques.

Even those who have reached the Foundation Establishment stage will abandon flying on their swords when dark clouds gather, since heavenly lightning in the cultivation world is no ordinary thing, and one wrong move can result in serious injury.

However, the reason he wanted Li Mingfei to stay in Tianxing City was because Huo Chongwu was going to make a move against him. If he picked the wrong person, it would be a major blow to his career as a gossipmonger.

However, Li Mingfei understood Lu Changfeng's thoughts in an instant.

"Hiss, Brother Lu, are you going to make a move?"

Lu Changfeng did not hide this from him.

"It wasn't me who wanted to make a move; it was Huo Chongwu who wanted to, and he even contacted others!"

Upon hearing this, Li Mingfei gasped, even putting down the golden shark fin he was holding.

"Oh, what should we do then? Maybe you shouldn't go back for a while; safety is the most important thing!"

"How about I contact Uncle Xie and ask him to find a few people to go with you?"

Hearing Li Mingfei's comment, Lu Changfeng laughed.

"Don't worry, I knew in advance that this guy was going to attack me, how could I not have a backup plan!"

Thanks to Huo Chongwu, I've recently obtained two great items through my cheat system.

[Golden Core Early Stage Experience Card: After use, your strength will increase to the peak of the third level of the Golden Core realm, lasting for thirty minutes.]

[Substitute Card: When facing imminent fatal injury, a substitute will appear on the spot to take the fall, while the user is teleported thousands of miles away, and this cannot be stopped.]

These two items are my true trump cards. With these two cards, I won't be afraid of anyone who comes!

After hearing what he said, Li Mingfei finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Alright, since you've prepared, Brother Lu, I won't say anything more. Come and eat!"

After the two had finished eating, Lu Changfeng set off on his way home.

Sure enough, as soon as Lu Changfeng rode his little motorcycle away from Tianxing City, someone quietly followed him.

Although his stealth ability was outstanding, it was no different from taking off his pants to fart in the face of divine sense.

It's a pity it wasn't Huo Chongwu, otherwise he would have immediately sent him to his death!

Once Tianxing City was out of sight, several fireballs flew out from the bushes below, their target Lu Changfeng.

But the next moment, he dispelled the mini-motorcycle technique in mid-air. Although with his Foundation Establishment cultivation, he could fly directly, he was still outwardly a Qi Refining Level 4 cultivator.

So it only took a few taps in the air before it landed steadily on the ground.

After doing all this, he calmly held his spirit sword and looked at the ground not far away.

"You've already made your move, why aren't you coming out? Or are you underground rats afraid of the light?"
