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

That's right. The people who attacked him this time were all cultivators who were extremely skilled in earth-遁 (earth-遁 is a type of magic or technique), and they were currently hiding underground, ready to make their move at any moment.

clap clap clap!

No sooner had Lu Changfeng finished speaking than a pale-faced scholar emerged from behind the tree trunk, clapping as he walked.

"No wonder he's a genius who could sever the arm of a late-stage Qi Refining cultivator while only at the mid-stage of Qi Refining!"

"Knowing they were ambushed, they didn't think of running away but stayed!"

"How arrogant!"

"It's a pity you're going to die today! What can you do? You offended someone!"

"Don't blame me if you become a ghost someday!"

In other worlds, this would probably be nonsense, but this is the world of cultivation, where being killed could actually make you a ghost.

As soon as he finished speaking, more than a dozen cultivators at the seventh or eighth level of Qi Refining rose from the ground. They were clearly accomplices of this pale-faced scholar who had attacked him.

There were even three cultivators at the ninth level of Qi Refining lying in ambush underground, responsible for launching a sneak attack.

When Lu Changfeng sensed this scene with his divine sense, he couldn't help but admire it in his heart.

Good heavens, no wonder they're a group that can survive in the Heavenly Star Sect. To deal with someone like me who's only at the mid-stage of Qi Refining, they have a dozen or so late-stage Qi Refining cultivators on the surface, and even three at the ninth level of Qi Refining who are preparing to launch a sneak attack.

That's really cautious!

The only pity was that Huo Chongwu was not present.

Since that's the case, there's no need to continue!

Without warning, dozens of golden needles appeared out of thin air above these people's heads and then pierced into their bodies!

The next moment, the group of people who had been so aggressive suddenly collapsed to the ground without warning, but Lu Changfeng could see very clearly that they were dead!

Everything was so simple and quick. The pale-faced scholar thought he had everything under control. If it were an ordinary Qi Refining Ninth Level cultivator, they probably wouldn't survive this level of scheming.

But then he met Lu Changfeng!

After confirming that everyone's life force had completely disappeared, he then stepped forward to begin the search.

Just kidding, the divination had said that there would be minor good fortune this time, so he wanted to see what it was.

Soon, he found a palm-sized stone slab in the pale-faced scholar's storage bag.

"Huh? What's this?"

He recognized everything in everyone's storage bags except for this stone slab. If there was a chance, this stone slab was the most likely one!

However, after examining the item repeatedly without finding any clues, he decided to look for clues in the scholar's storage bag.

Not long after, they actually found some clues on a jade slip.

It turns out that this stone slab was a family heirloom of the pale-faced scholar, who originally didn't care much for it. However, six years ago, it unexpectedly caused a slight disturbance, so he began to study it.

Finally, it was discovered that this was an ancestral vein stone scale, which allowed the holder to burrow underground without consuming spiritual power and to sense spiritual objects within a hundred miles of the surrounding area.

Unfortunately, where is this? Tianxing Sect, a dignified Nascent Soul sect, and at the foot of a Nascent Soul sect mountain, how could there be any spiritual treasures left out? So they started to do business of robbery and plunder.

Because burrowing underground doesn't require consuming spiritual energy, he has escaped several life-or-death crises using this technique.

After reading it, Lu Changfeng couldn't help but shake his head.

"Tsk tsk tsk, it's really unlucky for such a good thing to be with you!"

"But now this thing belongs to me!"

The glorious era of immortality is about to arrive, and the world will undergo a great change. Spiritual objects that could not be born underground before will be born in the future, so there is no need to worry about this thing being useless.

It's a pity we didn't run into Huo Chongwu, otherwise we could have eliminated this threat forever.

The second day at work, there was another internal operations department meeting.

At this moment, Huo Chongwu began to issue his orders with a smug look on his face, clearly unaware that all the people he had recruited were already dead.

He thought these people had succeeded, but because he was trying to avoid being hunted down, he couldn't send them a message.

"Alright, now that everyone's here, let's begin the meeting!"

However, before Huo Chongwu could finish speaking, Li Bing interrupted him.

"Wait, Director Huo, Deputy Director Lu hasn't arrived yet. What do you mean by starting a meeting now?"

Upon hearing Li Bing's rebuttal, Huo Chongwu's face immediately darkened.

He had previously thought Li Bing was quite adept at handling things, but after Lu Changfeng arrived, he became very disrespectful, so he needed to be taught a lesson.

"Oh, so you want to wait? Then get out and wait outside. You can come back into this office when Lu Changfeng is back!"

After saying that, he couldn't help but sneer inwardly. Lu Changfeng is dead, so you can just wait outside forever!

But the next moment, the door to the operations department office was pushed open, and then a voice slowly appeared.

"Oh ho, waiting for me? No need, I'm already here."

As he spoke, Lu Changfeng went to his seat and sat down, then looked at the stunned Huo Chongwu with a smile.

Huo Chongwu's voice began to tremble as he realized what was happening.

"Y-you, what are you doing here!"

You know, he personally watched the assassin follow him, so why did Lu Changfeng come back alive today?

Could it be that the other party made a mistake?

That can't be right. The pale-faced scholar knows that they can complete any task they take on!

But now that he's back, it proves the attack failed. Considering they couldn't contact him before, there's only one conclusion:

Lu Changfeng killed all of them!

With that kind of strength, killing me would be a piece of cake, wouldn't it?

The thought of this made his hair stand on end, and sweat poured uncontrollably from his forehead.

However, Lu Changfeng simply shrugged, looking helpless.

"I also dream of a life where I don't have to work and still have spirit stones, but the head manager won't allow it!"

"But Director Huo seems quite surprised that I'm here. Does he have a problem with that?"

Hearing this, Huo Chongwu quickly wiped away the sweat dripping down his face and replied tremblingly,

"No, no! I was just a little surprised to see you coming to work so early!"

Seeing his stubbornness, Lu Changfeng smiled slowly.

"Oh! I see. I thought you just thought I'd been killed by an assassin and were startled by my sudden return!"

"Hey, who hired this assassin? If I find the mastermind, I'll tear them to pieces!"

"Director Huo, you need to be careful lately!"

As soon as Lu Changfeng said those words, Huo Chongwu looked as if he had just been pulled out of the water!

"Yes, yes, yes! I will be careful."

Upon seeing his appearance, Lu Changfeng's lips curled up slightly. It was only because he was in Luoyun Shopping Mall that he had to give Su Ziyuan and Duan Yu some face; otherwise, he would be dead by now!

Now that things are almost done, it's time to proceed with the next plan.

"Very good. Since Director Huo has no objections, I will chair this meeting from now on. Does everyone agree?"

Upon hearing this, Huo Chongwu quickly expressed his no objection. With him taking the lead, Passerby A and Passerby B had even less objection. As for Li Bing, he expressed his agreement as soon as he said this.

"very good,"

"Last week I discovered that the suggestions approved by our Director Huo were high-level and far-sighted, but lacked practical application!"

"So I thought, we can't just make up the terms of the employee handbook on a whim; we have to experience it ourselves!"

"Therefore, for the next three months, Director Huo, along with Passerby A, Passerby B, and some of the young staff, will be responsible for enforcing these terms!"

"After all, only by doing it yourself can you know whether these terms are suitable or not, don't you agree?"
