"The swallows grieve!"

"Feng Feixue!"

"Old dreams return!"

As the icy fog dissipated, the person lying in the rocking chair was seen sleeping soundly.

He said nothing, yet it was as if he said everything.

"A carefree sunset!"

"Snowy Light Swift God!"

Yanqing observed carefully, and when the icy mist dissipated, she saw only two words carved on the rocking chair: Gua Sha.

This is how a master trains his apprentice.

The master only needs to lie in the rocking chair and sleep, while the disciple who practices alone has to consider many moves.

"A sorrowful winter keeps guests here!"

"The ocean is turbulent!"

"The swallows sing in winter!"

"Mysterious Ice Phoenix Descends!"

After finishing this routine, Yanqing's steps became unsteady, and her head began to spin.

"Ha...ha...drink...no...too far off." Sweat dripped down his cheeks, the ice attached to his array blade began to melt, and he felt as if his body was somewhat out of control.

There's a kind of beauty in the body's defiance, even though the bracelet can relieve his physical fatigue, it can't erase the pain in his soul.

This continued until night fell and the stars appeared. When the waning moon hung high in the dark sky, a phone call woke Yanqing's sleeping second master.

"It's been a long day without you my friend?"

"Topa?! It's dark? It's 8:24 PM?"

Hua Wu was still half asleep; he never expected Yan Qing to be so useless. She couldn't even function as an alarm clock.

He reluctantly answered the phone, "Xiao Ye, what's up now?"

"The meeting is the day after tomorrow."

Hua Wu's head was buzzing. He vaguely remembered that Diamond had said a month later. "Didn't he say a month later? It's only been less than a week."

"It's been brought forward... related to..."

"That's something for the day after tomorrow."

Topa hesitated on the other end of the phone, "But now, according to the system time..."

You mean tomorrow?

"The Diamond Manager asked me to tell you to attend the meeting on time and cast your vote for our Strategic Investment Department."

Hua Wu said lazily, "I know. It's just an online meeting, why make it so complicated? Can you send me a link later so I can send it directly on my phone?"

Topa couldn't understand how this person had become a deputy manager. This nonchalant attitude towards power... "Uh... such important decisions can't be made this way. Also, your vacation... the company plans to cancel it..."

Upon hearing this, Hua Wu instantly sobered up. "I knew it was you calling me! Who wants to withdraw? No, if you want to withdraw, then withdraw. I'm not doing it anymore. I'll just pry open that blue crystal on the wall and leave a few big holes. Let's see who gets angry first then."

Topa: ? ? ?

Chapter 141 Hua Wu: Who are these people in the company? They're just the same old people coming in different forms.

Toppa was stunned. The crystal was no longer just embedded; in a sense, it had become part of the wall.

If this is torn down, won't the wall break? If it's demolished, there will definitely be accountability. They'll pin the blame on their strategic investment department.

Then Diamond will have to face off against five opponents in a passionate 1v5 at the board meeting. And then Diamond will be smashed into diamonds.

That kind of thing absolutely cannot happen, at least not because of the information she provided.

"Wait! The Celestial Comet Wall and the Sub-Void Crystal Wall cannot be destroyed! If that happens..."

Hearing this, Hua Wu nodded in satisfaction. At least Toppa knew who the king and queen were.

"I know you don't want a hole to be punched in your impenetrable protective wall, right? If not, give me two more months. The logistics department won't die without me. By the way, why is your investment department so concerned about our logistics department? Is Diamond some kind of arrogant tsundere who wants the logistics department but won't say so?"

"Ah...this seems to be...me..."

Toppa was speechless... This blatant slander against her boss... She wanted to protect Diamond's image, but... she thought about it, and realized that the investment department and the logistics department didn't really have much overlap.

It seemed like she was trying to have her cake and eat it too, and she didn't know how to respond.

Faced with this sudden silence, Hua Wu patted his phone, trying to find a signal.

"Hello—is the signal bad? Why is it choppy?"

“Deputy Director Wei, it’s not a signal issue, it’s just that your guess has shocked me a bit. Let me organize my thoughts.”

"Holy crap, Amber King, why are you silent? Could it be... that Diamond guy with the thick eyebrows and big eyes is really a tsundere? Hmm... if he's like that, I'll have to reconsider whether I should vote for him or not."

Toppa couldn't handle it anymore; he was starting to feel overwhelmed. His thoughts were too erratic; if you talked to him about trees in the mountains, he'd talk about fish in the sea.

"But didn't you promise before..."

Hua Wu looked at Yan Qing, who was fast asleep under a tree in the distance, and he was furious.

“I did say I would cast a vote, but I meant a month from now. You want me to vote tomorrow or the day after? Can I even do that? No, I can’t.”

"The meeting was all set up perfectly a month from now, but the company insists on moving it to tomorrow or the day after. This kind of sudden change in plans is giving me a huge headache. Look at who's doing meeting planning in the company right now? Dongfang Qixing? Fleming?"

Topa was speechless; he hadn't expected that delivering a message would turn him into a punching bag. "I...I don't know."

"Don't tell me you don't know; I have no idea what the company is doing. Take Pinocchio for example. Look at the people in the company, generation after generation—what are they all like? It's the same old wine in new bottles. They're driven by profit, trying to implement savings and protection policies. Can they really do it? They can't. Do you know what the company is like now? Like a 'glutton,' completely doing the opposite of what it should be."

“Anyone can be a manager these days. Take Oswaldo Snyder, for example. What kind of person is he? His head is full of aggression and expansion. Can he protect anything? He can’t. I was planning to beat him up, but guess what? I couldn’t find him.”

"The company needs to first understand the concept of storage protection."

"Why change the old system that the company was doing so well? The main business used to be storage and the secondary business was commerce. Now the main business is commerce and the secondary business is storage."

"All he thinks about is controlling this and that, collecting more money, and taking this and that. What's the difference between him and Amber King's enemy, Obolos? To me, there seems to be no difference. As for why Cripper didn't smash the Interstellar Peace Corporation into a sub-space crystal wall with one blow, I think it's because He's too kind."

"If it were me, I would have shown these little cuties the power of amber long ago."

Topana is numb. What's the point of talking to her about this? She's just a P45 employee. What can she change by talking to her? Nothing.

Furthermore, Diamond made her record the entire call, and she's now wondering whether she should edit it out. After all, this kind of recording isn't good.

"Deputy Director Wei, please calm down. I'm just informing you of the meeting time."

"You seem to have finished giving the notifications, right? Then..."

"Wait a minute, there's one more thing. Although you may already know."

Hua Wu was getting impatient because he had just seen Yan Qing scratch his face in a daze.

In his eyes, this was undoubtedly a challenge to his authority as his master.

"Speak your mind, or shut up. I still need to beat my apprentice."

"There are some interesting little activities going on at Yalilo VI recently."

"Let me beat up my apprentice first."

Topa was completely bewildered. This guy had an apprentice? The apprentice of the Logistics Department Demon King? She felt she had to hide the accounts well.

Topa was curious whether her apprentice might directly inherit the logistics department, mainly because Hua Wu was usually very approachable; otherwise, she wouldn't have dared to ask.

"Your apprentice..."

"My apprentice from the Immortal Ship base is almost done with training. He can now solo 10,000 regular Doomsday Beasts without any problem. Why are you asking this?... You're not going to report this to Diamond, are you?"

"Haha...No. How could that be? I wouldn't dare, you big shots..." That's how the backstabbing and intrigue in the workplace works; you have to choose sides from the very beginning.

Hua Wu suddenly felt like teasing her, wanting to see if Topa could fall asleep tonight. "Enough! Your pause has already given you away."

"Beep beep beep————"

Hearing the sound of the call being disconnected, Toppa on the other end of the line had only two words in his mind: "Damn it." He sounded angry.

Getting angry isn't scary; what's scary is if that demon actually manages to tear off the Comet Wall and the Subspace Barrier.

So the company's first-ever elbow-striking competition is about to begin, and Diamond is definitely going to be the one who gets elbowed.

There's no other reason than that Diamond and Taravan are the two people who are closest to Hua Wu, and Taravan has long since disappeared once he unleashed his Ghost Blade.

There's only one diamond left, and after the diamond is elbowed and crashes, there's a high probability that a completely useless wanted poster will be issued.

Then there's a high probability of triggering the demon's echo, just like back then when the company planned to issue a moral condemnation as a formality, but Hua Wu, being straightforward and lacking in social skills, simply threw away several self-replicating, monstrous planets.

Then the company crashed, and ever since then, any attempt to use moral blackmail within the company has been selective. And the whole universe now knows that the Huntsman is a dangerous place; if you mess with them, they'll really do something to you.

Given the current situation, Toppa has no doubt that no extreme circumstances could arise.

For example, they could directly use materials pried off the wall of Tianhuixing as javelins to pierce the Pierpoint headquarters.

She didn't know why, but she felt that her imagination was a bit outrageous.

But when she thought about the fact that it was something that man was capable of, she suddenly felt that it wasn't so outrageous, and that her thoughts might even be a little conservative.

For example, you could plant a tree at the company headquarters and then have the Star God of Hunting blow it up with an arrow.

There was also the sentence Hua Wu posted on the Star Peace website at the time.

[The reason I'm so cruel to these creatures is because they're truly disgusting. Since you want to morally condemn me...call me cruel, then surely you can reform these beautiful, kind, and bountiful creatures, right? You can surely live peacefully with them, right?]

This demon seeks revenge on the spot.

Chapter 142 You are not Yan, how can you know Yan's joy?

Shence Mansion — Backyard

"Get up! Yanqing! Have you even leveled up your blue bar? You're just sleeping there. Do you think you're living up to Jingyuan's expectations?!"

Yanqing closed his eyes; his confidence had been completely shattered.

He frantically scraped his sleeping second master, continuing this scraping for several hours.

He realized that his second master probably wanted to tell him that there are differences between people.
