"Right. This is one of the accessories of the female lead character in the Grand Tale of Tang Dynasty…This here the whole box belongs to her as well…"
The young employee was confused as he wondered why Chen Xiaobei was nervous.
"Xiaobei… What's wrong? Isn't this piece of accessory just a replica of the real one?" Song Qincheng asked, puzzled.
"Let me rephrase that question. Is the design of this bead bracelet the same as the real one?"
"Yes. It is. Director Zhang cares a lot about small details like this. She wants it to be perfect! All the props here were made in reference to actual historical items. She even invited two reputable historians that studied the Tang Dynasty to have a look at all these props! Especially when it comes to the accessories and costumes; their designs can be found in historical data!"
"Damn! What a coincidence!"
Judging from what the young employee told Chen Xiaobei, he could deduce that the Beaded Blood Amber Bracelet in his treasure chest belonged to Wu Zetian! To his knowledge, Song Qincheng is supposed to be Wu Zetian's reincarnation. Light was finally shed on the questions that he had in mind.
"I'm getting really lucky! The boost on my luck is working really well!"
What luck? Can you stop talking to yourself?"
"Quick! Come to the office with me!"
Leaving Song Qincheng's question unanswered, Chen Xiaobei held her hand and walked away.
"What's the rush? I still have work to be done here!"
She could feel her heart hammering in her chest. Failing to resist Chen Xiaobei's dominant personality, she could only give an order to her employees with a flushed face.
"Everyone, you guys can go home after moving all the stuff in the storeroom. Thank you so much for the hard work!"
"No problem! You totally leave it to us!"
Nodding their heads, they had knowing smiles on their faces.
'Seems like our president is going to do some dirty with our vice-president! Hehehe…"
Inside Song Qincheng's office.
Immediately, Chen Xiaobei took out the real Beaded Blood Amber Bracelet from his treasure chest.
"Is… Is this magic?"
Widening her eyes, she could not believe that Chen Xiaobei took out a bead bracelet that looked exactly like the prop from his cell phone!
"Magic or not. It's not important. I want you to take a look at it. Does it look special to you?"
"Nothing special about it. Its material is different from the prop. That's about it."
"Look closely."
Initially, Chen Xiaobei thought that this bead bracelet was going to solve the questions that he had for Wu Zetian. However, nothing magical happened in the end.
"Kiddo! Are you trying to fool me?"
With her eyes narrowed, Song Qincheng tossed the bead bracelet on the table. Walking closer to Chen Xiaobei, she bit her lower lip. She had one of her hand wrapped around Chen Xiaobei's neck and the other hand on his forbidden area.
"Eh?!"
Chen Xiaobei's eyes widened in surprise and the beast was finally unleashed! This woman right here was the real MILF! With passion, Chen Xiaobei looked into her beautiful pair of soulful eyes. Despite her girlish and innocent look, the look of a temptress was reflected in her eyes.
"You are just a newbie. You don't have to act like an experienced player here!"
With a smile on his face, Chen Xiaobei saw through her mind.
"Don't laugh at me! I'm older than you! I should take the initiative to do it!"
Feeling embarrassed, Song Qincheng pursed her rose-like lips. Initially, she wanted to muster enough courage to make love to Chen Xiaobei but was now frustrated as she had absolutely no idea what to do next now.
"Pumpkin…"
Seeing that her face was getting redder and redder, Chen Xiaobei stopped laughing and kissed her. Since the both of them had already made up their minds to surrender their bodies to each other, Chen Xiaobei took the initiative to unbutton her shirt. At that moment, Chen Xiaobei realized that Song Qincheng was beyond perfection. This feeling was most probably from his resistance to lust over her body all this while.
In his embrace was a masterpiece. She trembled lightly when his kisses landed on her sensitive skin. Song Qincheng's perky bosoms were shaking non-stop along with her body. Soon, Song Qincheng's mind went fuzzy. Her mind clouded with endorphins, she pressed Chen Xiaobei'e head to her bosoms when she climaxed.
As the saying went, a night like this was worth thousands of gold! Chen Xiaobei could still carry on after a few rounds of love war on the bed but Song Qincheng was so happy that she almost passed out.
*Buzz*
Suddenly, the Beaded Blood Amber Bracelet moved.
"What is happening?!"
Taken aback, Chen Xiaobei turned around and checked on it. A hundred and eight rays of light were projected from every single bead. From far, an astounding picture could be seen.
"That… That is the City of God, Luo Yang!"
Judging from the drawing in the picture, Chen Xiaobei could deduce that it was City Luo Yang, the capital city of the Tang Dynasty!
"Could it be the answer than I have for Wu Zetian lies in this Divine City Luo Yang?"
Chen Xiaobei then turned around and looked at Song Qincheng who was still in the state of euphoria.
'I understand now! This euphoric state allows her to empty herself and a spiritual bridge was built to connect with her past life! That was why the bead bracelet is acting up! Right! That must be it! I'm pretty sure the answer that I want is in Luo Yang! I have never thought that making love with her provides me the hint to solve this mystery! This luck that I have with me is working extremely well!'
With that being said, Chen Xiaobei pounded even harder. A few moments later, they both climaxed together. He lay on the leather sofa while Song Qincheng lay on his bare chest – staring at the man that made her lose herself temporarily. Now, the both of them were closer than ever after the final barrier between them was broken!
Wrapping her legs around Chen Xiaobei, Song Qincheng's had transformed from a shy to bold woman. Seeing that Chen Xiaobei had rested enough, she moved closer to him and licked his ears.
"Kiddo. Do you think you still can do it?"
"Of course… I can do it again!"
"Hold on!"
Song Qincheng put on a grim smile and rushed out the room barefooted with a sweater on her. There was no one outside. Soon, she returned to the room.
"What did you do?"
Without saying a word, Song Qincheng took off the sweater and golden dragon robe was presented in front of Chen Xiaobei. An extremely seductive naked body was hiding within the dragon robe. It was more attractive than a fully naked body.
"Is… Is this Wu Zetian's dragon robe?"
Gulping, Chen Xiaobei could not move his eyes away from her. During his time in school, he watched a lot of Japanese porn with actresses dressed as teachers, nurses, and housewives. Seemingly, those could not compare with the costume that Song Qincheng was wearing right now.
'An empress! No one else had done that before!'
With both of her hands placed on the table, Song Qincheng bent her body and lifted the dragon robe. She then said something naughty with a seductive smile on her face.
"Boy, come and punish me!"
____________________402________________
"Xiaobei! Get up quickly! Quickly… It's almost daytime! You have to, the cleaners will be here any minute!"
Song Qincheng had already put on her clothes while she anxiously urged Chen Xiaobei to get up. She tried to help by putting on his clothes but could not get a hold of him.
"You really think that I'm a superman who never gets tired… I came so many times last night… I have to sleep a little longer…" Chen Xiaobei had an exhausted expression on his face as he kneeled on the sofa, refusing to get up.
Song Qincheng face flushed bright red and remembered what happened in the office the night before. That moment of pleasure and happiness, then another moment of butterflies in her stomach, it made her body weak.
If it was possible, she did not want to get up either, hoping that wonderful moment would last forever.
And just like that, she could always enjoy it. The happiness that Chen Xiaobei brought to her, a feeling of happiness that only a woman that was single could experience.
*Ding ding—*
While Song Qincheng was deep in thought, the phone started to ring.
The ringing came from the pile of clothes that Chen Xiaobei tossed aside.
"Can you help me check who's calling?" Chen Xiaobei said in a sleepy tone.
"... Goddess Lan."
Song Qincheng took the phone and muttered the two words.
"Who?"
Chen Xiaobei was excited and hurriedly got up. He took a look at his phone. With realization, his face was filled with awkwardness.
"Don't worry, I don't mind."
Song Qincheng smiled and calmly said, "I'm a divorced woman. I'm already satisfied just by being your lover in the dark! Answer the phone soon, having someone to call in so early must be an urgent matter!"
"I know, what you said is from your heart. I don't want to be tempted to make promises either."
With a solemn look, Chen Xiaobei's said, "I just want to let you know! You, Song Qincheng, not a mistress who would never be brought to light! I will let the whole world know that you are my woman!"
"Hey… Stop trying to be cool, just pick up the phone!"
Song Qing Cheng let out a shriek, her heart was already melting.
Perhaps it was because in the early years that she had more contact with a eunuch. Deep down Song Qincheng's heart, she really liked Chen Xiaobei's dominance; it was simply filled with too much masculinity.
"Okay."
Chen Xiaobei nodded and answered the call, "Mengchen, why are you calling in so early?"
"There's something wrong with the company here, I need you to come and have a look."
"Because the construction of the factory involves the approval of an environmental permit, they need the signature from the deputy mayor in charge of the environmental protection."
Lan Mengchen added, "But he has been rejecting and refusing to approve it! Madam Diana and I have been with him for a few days. He finally relaxed and said he would discuss with the chairman."
Chen Xiaobei frowned and replied, "This is strange. With the identity of both you and Madam Diana, how can the deputy mayor make things difficult with you? It should've been green light all the way!"
"The guy named Yap Maosong is the third uncle of Yap Tianling!" Lan Mengchen said indignantly.
"Oh, so it's a public feud." Chen Xiao Bei sneered. "Rest assured, I will deal with this matter!"
Lan Mengchen said, "Then come as soon as possible to the company and set off with me! We will have to rush before Yap Maosong arrives to work and wait outside his office!"
After hanging up, Chen Xiaobei then changed his clothes and left.
Song Qincheng discreetly sent the robes that were worn the day before to dry cleaning, then went back home and changed into a new set of clothes to avoid others noticing something different about her.
Outside the building of Dragon City.
As Chen Xiaobei and Lan Mengchen arrived, they saw a group of cars driving out.
"It's Yap Maosong's car! We have to rush up to him!" With Lan Mengchen's sharp eyesight, she found the mayor with a glance.
Chen Xiaobei quickly drove to catch up and asked, "Did you set up an appointment with him beforehand?"
Lan Mengchen reluctantly said, "He doesn't even pick up his phone, how can I set an appointment with him? We can only chase him around like the paparazzi!"
Chen Xiaobei's expression was cold and uncomfortable. "You all have worked so hard these days; let's see how I'll handle him."
"Don't fool around!"
Lan Mengchen nervously said, "If we don't get his signature, the factory construction will have to shut down completely, which would result in a lot of monetary loss. More importantly, there are thousands of workers waiting to get paid at the construction site, so this matter cannot be neglected!"
"Don't worry, if they want to play, I will play with them until the end!"
Chen Xiaobei smiled confidently.
He followed the group of cars and went all the way to Dragon City's airport.
Chen Xiao Bei thought that Yap Maosong wanted to travel by plane.
However, Yap Maosong and his people did not enter the terminal. Instead, they went to the corner of the northernmost part of the airport.
"What are they doing here?" Chen Xiaobei was very puzzled.
"Did you see those white-haired old men?" Lan Mengchen said, "They're the experts from the National Meteorological Administration and also the officials from the Ministry of Environmental Protection. Apparently, it's coming from the smog."
"Smog?"
Chen Xiao Bei slightly moved his sight and looked up at the sky.
It was covered in gray dust; the visibility was extremely low and that was alright if it was in the city. However, if it was at the airport in this kind of weather, the airplanes had no way to take off.
"Yap Maosong is the deputy mayor and he's in charge of environmental protection! Recently, he has been busy with this smog issue."
Lan Mengchen explained, "Actually, the smog in Dragon City is nothing new but this year has been very strange. There has been frequent smog occurring at the airport and it often affects the usual takeoffs and landings of the flights. It has caused several large-scale of passengers to stay put.
"It is said that a deadline was given so that Yap Maosong can resolve it within the time limit, otherwise he will be subjected to a demotion.
"Based on the facts given by Yap Maosong, the construction of the factory will bring in a lot of dust. That's why he never approved our license; it would be useless even if we tried petitioning…"
Lan Mengchen sounded helpless.
After all, the issue of the environmental protection was a major one and going through the higher-ups was a challenging task. It was no wonder that even with Madam Diana's vast connections, this was near impossible.
"Alright, let's take a look."
Chen Xiaobei nodded. While he was walking, he carefully observed the nearby terrain.
This was the corner of the airport and it was close to the mountain. Also, there was a clear gap between the terrains.
At the side of the airport, the surface was flat, like a piece of land on the mountainside.
He saw a white-haired old man who said, "This mountain was originally the natural barrier of the airport, but this year, the wind direction has obviously been changed! The smog that gathered here could not disperse due to the mountain!"
Yap Maosong heard the conversation, he continuously nodded and replied with politeness: "Elder Fang, you are the authority of the National Meteorological Administration. In this case, how would you solve it?"
"In my opinion, the mountain should be blown to bits. That would allow the monsoon wind to flow, the smog in the airport will naturally disperse," said Elder Fang in seriousness.
"Oh…" Yap Maosong heard his speech and rolled his eyes.
No wonder netizens gave the professional nicknames such as pro-f**k-sionals! Those "pofessional" would never cease to spout out-of-this-world ideas without even thinking of the consequences.
'Would you blow up this mountain that's several kilometers wide for me to see?'
With an injured expression, Yap Maosong said, "Everyone knows that this matter is related to my future. I want you to come up with some other ways and I will definitely reward you!"
When that statement was said, Chen Xiaobei's lips curled into a smile.
____________________403___________________
"What are you smiling about?"
Lan Mengchen asked Chen Xiaobei as the crowd gathered around.
"I may have a solution to the problem of the smog in the airport," Chen Xiaobei said lightly.
"Really? That's great!"
Lan Mengchen sounded surprised.
"As long as you help Yap Maosong in solving this problem, he will definitely sign the approval form!"
Dragon City was the capital and its airport was equivalent to China's name card! Countless travelers from home and abroad had their first departure and arrival in China from this very place! Hence, it was no doubt that it was important.
The smog problem this year even attracted the attention of the nation's leaders.
This was not a mild issue; it also contributed to other problems such as stranded passengers and the taking off and landing of aircrafts.
A few days ago, a plane with a Russian ambassador was supposed to arrive for a discussion about economic cooperation. However, due to the smog, it could not land and the trip was immediately canceled! They wanted to invite him back how much effort they would have to put in to do so...
In conclusion, there was an issue unfolding right then.
Just like a knife pressing on Yap Maosong's neck, if this issue could not be solved, it would ruin his future.
As long there was a way to help him with this problem, it was frightening that he would promise to whatever was requested!
"Xiaobei! Don't keep me guessing!" Lan Mengchen was getting impatient. "Hurry up and say it! What is your plan? If it is going to work, we must immediately take action!"
Chen Xiaobei shook his head and said, "Don't rush it, let's see what those self-proclaimed experts have in mind still."
"Those self-proclaimed experts clearly have no other alternatives!"
Lan Mengchen frowned.
"After almost a month, Ye Mao Song invited these people for a comprehensive analysis of the environment, climate, wind direction, and more. And the only solution they could come up with, as you also heard… Is to bomb the mountain!"
Chen Xiaobei laughed and asked, "Has no one considered that it could be a feng shui problem?"
"Feng shui?" Lan Mengchen looked a little confused and shook her head, then said, "These 'experts' are old-fashioned, I'm afraid that they will not believe in metaphysics."
"They don't believe in it but Yap Maosong wouldn't necessarily dismiss it." Chen Xiaobei replied with a wide smile.
"What does that mean?" Lan Mengchen did not understand what he meant.
"There's someone coming, let's watch." Chen Xiaobei looked on the other side.
All he could see was a Rolls-Royce driving past everyone.
The door opened and a young man was the first to come out.
He was handsome and was dressed in a suit, the posture of a young talented person, coupled with a valuable luxury car that was enough to fascinate thousands of women.
"Yap Tianlin! Why is he here?!" Lan Mengchen's furrowed her brow slightly, seemingly disgusted.
"If I'm not mistaken, there is a feng shui master sitting in that car!" Chen Xiao Bei lightly smiled as if he had already seen everything.
"Tianlin! You finally came! Let me introduce you to the experts that I have invited!"
Yap Maosong personally greeted him.
At the same time, the gazes of all the officials and experts around them were diverted.
Chen Xiaobei and Lan Mengchen were also watching from afar.
Yap Tianlin forced a smile and personally opened the back door, then said, "Let me introduce you to everyone! This is the Elder of the Mountain Shu Faction, Master Situ Hengfeng!"
As soon as the statement came out, the experts around the officials were in a daze, they did not know what was the deal with Mountain Shu Faction.
"Isn't the Mountain Shu Faction from a movie?"
"Yes, I have only heard of Xuanjian Faction and Golden Dragon Temple but I have never heard of Mountain Shu Faction…"
"Is he a con artist from the Jianghu?"
Everyone was whispering, their hearts filled with doubt.
Lan Mengchen also had a similar expression, she was completely unfamiliar with Mountain Shu Faction.
At that moment, only Chen Xiaobei alone knew that the strength and heritage of Mountain Shu Faction was actually much stronger than the first large-scaled school of Xuanjian Faction. Perhaps even way more powerful!
It was only because they avoided making appearances that people did not recognize them.
Moreover, according to Li Xiang's statement, there were actually many hidden ancient factions like the Mountain Shu Faction.
These factions were definitely much more powerful than the average Jianghu group!
In front of the eager eyes of everyone, Situ Hengfeng stepped out of the car.
He was in his fifties. His hair was filled with grays and was tied up with a wooden crafted hairpin. He also wore red robes that was very eye-catching!
In addition, he had sage-like figure. Thus, he gained the respect from people around him as soon as he appeared.
Ding!
[Cultivation: after the phase of True Nirvana, Health: 40,000, Combat Power: 40,000!]
Activating his Netherspirit Battlescouter, Chen Xiaobei heart started pounding in an instant.
Although he already knew that the people of the Mountain Shu Faction were very strong, he would never think that they actually would be this powerful!
With a combat power of 40,000, he could easily become a leader in any reputable faction! Putting the entire Jianghu in perspective, he was definitely a powerful and influential individual.
"I really didn't expect that the Yap family had such a relationship with the Mountain Shu Faction! The ancestry of the four major families really can't be underestimated!"
Chen Xiaobei calmed himself and re-examined the four major families.
Yap, Zhuang, Liu, Cao.
He only had a good relationship with the Cao family but had a terrible relationship with the Liu family.
As for the Yap and Zhuang family, he had a long-term revengeful relationship with them and he would fight to the last breath against them. Now, it seemed like it was not going to be easy to balance between these two enemies!
Of course, Chen Xiaobei was well-hidden and not exposed to the sight of the Yap family nor the Zhuang family.
The final battle... the last fight would not take place for the time being.
"Yo! Are you Mr. Chen and Miss Lan? Which winds blew you two up here?"
At this moment, Yap Tianlin suddenly let out a sigh and dramatically walked over to them.
"Stop pretending! You still don't know why that we are here?" Lan Mengchen was not a person who was easily angered but the moment she saw Yap Tianlin, she was raging!
If it was not for this stalker Yap Tianlin, the construction of the factory would not be blocked. Lan Mengchen and Diana was not like the daily paparazzi. They chased Yap Maosong around with their hot faces sticking onto his cold butt and yet, they still could not get his signature.
Yap Tianlin pretended to smile. "Like you said, how would I know what you guys are doing here? Perhaps, if your attitude was a little bit better towards me, maybe I can help you two out."
"You…" Lan Mengchen held her tongue.
If a few good words were said, then things would be settled but that was not possible!
However, Lan Mengchen was not a fool. She was very clear that Chen Xiaobei won shares from Yap Tianlin that was worth two billion yuan the last time!
With Yap Tianlin's personality, he would not take the money back from him but he definitely would not give up!
"How about it? Can you start by calling me Brother Yap?"
Yap Tianlin almost got himself beaten up the last time but it did not change his behavior. He made it clear that he wanted to hit Lan Mengchen as he glared at her with cunning eyes.
"We don't need your help."
Chen Xiaobei stepped forward and guarded Lan Mengchen from the front. He glanced over at Yap Tianlin and plainly said, "You still have to take care of yourself. Maybe you will have to ask for my help later!"
___________________404_______________________
"What?! Me, Yap Tianlin, ask for your help? Are you sick in the head? Or is it because Lan Mengchen hasn't told you the situation you're in yet? You still dare to be arrogant until the end! F*cking retard!" Yap Tianlin yelled angrily, his expression filled with disdain as he looked into Chen Xiaobei's eyes.
In Yap Tianlin's perspective, he had more power than Chen Xiaobei. If Chen wanted to get the license for the factory, he would have to be on his knees and beg Yap Tianlin for it.
How could he be begging to Chen Xiaobei? It's a joke!
"Tianlin! Don't bother entertaining their nonsense! Master Situ is waiting here!" shouted Yap Maosong.
In his heart, the whole thing was clear.
He understood that he could take advantage of the situation and retaliate against him. Since Chen Xiaobei was not aware of it, he naturally would not give any chances to Chen Xiaobei.
"Okay!"
Yap Tianlin gave Chen Xiaobei a cold glare and said, "Continue the arrogant front then! I'll see how long you can put up with it!"
After his speech, he turned and walked away.
Lan Mengchen was anxious.
"What can we do now? There's no way we can get his signature with Yap Tianlin around! It's alright if we don't get the money but the workers won't be able to start working and they wouldn't have any food to eat!"
"Don't worry, things may turn around!"
Chen Xiaobei narrowed his eyes and set his gaze onto Situ Hengfeng, who was known as the elder of Mountain Shu Faction.
Under everyone's gaze, Yap Tianlin said haughtily, "Master Situ, you can now start by displaying your power to open the eyes of these commoners!"
"Excuse me! Master Situ, what should we do to solve this problem?" One of the authorities from the National Meteorological Administration asked in a humble tone.
Situ Hengfeng looked oblivious, as though he did not hear the question.
He was like a god who scorned ignorant mortals, looking down upon Elder Fang.
His arrogance was over-the-top!
Elder Fang was cast aside and he felt very embarrassed.
The other experts around him grumbled in dissatisfaction over how Elder Fang was treated.
"What a snob! Elder Fang is able to discuss with the Nobel Prize winners about academics, and he isn't allowed to ask for advice? Who does he think he is?"
"This might sound rude but he seems to be a con artist of Jianghu! I really thought that he could solve the problem of the smog."
"That's right! In the final analysis of this problem, only science can solve it!"
The situation was starting to get uncomfortable. Yap Tianlin quickly responded, "Master Situ is an expert from the outside world. He doesn't like interacting with guests, so everyone please understand!"
"Disliking to interact with guests? It's obvious that he looks down on us!" Some angered experts immediately expressed their dissatisfaction.
They have done their research for a lifetime and even Yap Maosong had to be polite to them.
This fully-bearded old Daoist appeared from nowhere and he dared to be obnoxious in front of them; it was simply intolerable.
Seeing the experts squabble, Yap Tianlin and Yap Maosong were anxious as the situation seemed to be getting out of hand.
However at this moment, Situ Hengfeng spoke for the first time, and his remarks were like adding fuel to the flames. "Right! I'm Situ Hengfeng and I look down on all of you! I'm arrogant because I have the right to be this way!"
After those words were uttered, the experts went into an uproar; they had never met such an overbearing snob!
However, Situ Hengfeng directly ignored them. He stepped forward and performed some martial arts. A single blast was launched to the side of the hill within a blink of an eye!
"Good movement!"
Chen Xiaobei blinked, he could not help but sigh.
"As expected of a master with a combat power of 40000! His speed is ten times faster than mine! Mountain Shu… The hidden faction… I still have a long way to go down this road…"
"Oh my god… This… What just happened?"
"It flew away just like that? That… that defies gravity... Physics even! This isn't science at all!"
"Is he a supernatural being?"
Of course, not everyone could through see his method like Chen Xiaobei.
The group of experts was completely stunned by Situ Hengfeng's light movements!
"Tianlin, what is Master Situ doing?"
Yap Maosong had a fearful look on his face.
"Rest assured, Master Situ is an old friend of our great-grandfather's, he came from the mountains to assist our Yap family!" Yap Tianlin said with confidence. "I have seen Master Situ's supernatural power with my own eyes. When he said he will do it, he definitely will!"
Yap Maosong gulped.
Although he was also part of the Yap family but when it came to the core of some things, he was not as close to the family heir compared to Yap Tianlin; all he could was to watch with a pinch of salt.
"Xiaobei, do you think that Daoist can succeed?" Lan Mengchen's pair of bright beautiful eyes were wide open from surprise.
Chen Xiaobei did not express any opinion, he could only smile without saying anything.
"Whoosh!"
At this moment, Situ Hengfeng's body was surrounded by True Qi!
An extremely thick white True Qi solidified into True Nirvana; it centered on him and spun at high speed!
At the same time, he took out a few Talismans from his sleeve and pinched it with his other hand!
The Talismans were cold but they were burning on their own!
Followed by that, a wind attribute that came from the nature of heaven and earth was moved by him and turned into a tornado of True Nirvana!
"My God… What is going on here…"
The group of experts was going to be scared silly, their guts shrank and their heart beat like crazy, their legs were starting to turn weak as well.
"Runes of the Wind Attribute!"
At the time being, only Chen Xiaobei could see through this puzzling scenario.
Before the layout of the Puzzle Formation and the Thunder Pool Force Field, he used the runes. The former was moving the mist from the midst of the mountains and the latter was moving the lightning bolt!
The existence of the talisman was equaled to a miniature formation!
Situ Hengfeng was going to make use of the landscape and the wind. By pushing the air on the top of the mountain, it would create an uneven air pressure, which would evidently create wind flow. Thus, clearing the smog.
At that moment, Chen Xiaobei's prediction and foresight came true.
A strong gust of wind whirled by. It was blowing from behind Situ Hengfeng to the airport.
The effect could instantly be seen. The smog was blown a few hundred meters away!
"Gone! The smog is gone!"
Yap Maosong and those experts yelped in astonishment, baffled by what they just witnessed! Yap Maosong, in particular, was lost for words since the smog problem affected him the most. The scene in front of him made his heart drop to his stomach.
When the deed was done, everyone gathered there turned to Situ Hengfeng. Yap Maosong took the lead, followed by the rest of the crowd, clapped frantically, showering him with praises!
"Master Situ really is a god! It's no wonder he looked down on us! As we were ignorant about Mountain Shu Faction, we seek forgiveness for the offense!" Elder Fang and the group of experts clearly had a change of heart.
Yap Maosong added on to the shower of compliments saying, "Master Situ is so knowledgeable! Even if Zhuge Kongming borrowed the east wind, it wouldn't be as stylish as you!"
When he heard that, Situ Hengfeng smiled smugly.
As the one who brought and introduced him there, Yap Tianlin also felt a sense of pride, as he held his chin high.
But during this time, Chen Xiaobei walked over and smiled. He said, "It's only blowing away the smog in the range of a few hundred meters. Not to mention the airport, it's only the tip of the iceberg! With such a low-level skill, he dares to compare to Zhuge Kongming? Isn't that rather shameless?"
____________________405_____________________
Shameless?
At this moment, everyone was engrossed worshipping Situ Hengfeng. With Chen Xiaobei's statement, it was like a bucket of cold water that doused everyone's warm enthusiasm, which angered them.
"Who do you think you are, kid? You're still young yet you dare to criticize Master Situ! You're boldly ignorant!"
"Master Situ blew the smog hundreds of meters away, which is a miracle! You dare say that he's not a professional as if you're more capable!"
"Heh, you're sugarcoating it. His words are empty! Just like his ability to do anything!"
"That's right! In comparison with Situ Hengfeng, this kid is nothing but dirt. Everyone already thinks of him as a nuisance. There's no need to take him seriously."
Seeing Situ Hengfeng's method with their own eyes, almost everyone on the scene had become his loyal fans whilst arming their mouth with insults that were directed at Chen Xiaobei.
Yap Maosong could not tolerate it any longer and yelled loudly, "Messenger, take this kid away! To be daring and going against Situ Hengfeng, even I, Yap Maosong can't take any more of this! Go lost!"
The man's future depended on Situ Hengfeng. Naturally, he dared not to be careless.
"Hold on!" Yap Tianlin said with a sinister look.
"Everyone has good intentions too, we might as well listen to what he wants to say. What if there's a better technique then Master Situ's?"
"How is it possible? You're too lenient on him Master Yap, that is impossible!"
Everyone shook their heads. They would never believe it even if they're beaten to death. A young inexperienced kid could never be compared with Master Situ who could summon a storm and churn waves at will.
"I would like to listen to what he has to say too!"
At that moment, Situ Hengfeng took a step and leaped down. He gave Chen Xiaobei an icy stare and politely said, "If you have a good technique to share, go for it! If you're only blathering nonsense, don't blame me if I don't go easy on you!"
Situ Hengfeng already was an extremely arrogant person, so Chen Xiaobei's statement earlier displeased him greatly! Yap Tianlin's impeccable timing and cunning remarks of Chen Xiaobei possibly having a better technique were to intensify Situ Hengfeng's displeasure!
True enough, Situ Hengfeng immediately took it to heart. If Chen Xiaobei did not say anything, it would not end well!
"A misunderstanding! This is a misunderstanding… Xiaobei, we have to go!"
When Lan Mengchen was aware of the situation, she quickly ran to drag Chen Xiaobei away.
In Lan Mengchen's perspective, Situ Hengfeng was an expert in the Jianghu as his techniques were great and unfathomable! Even if Chen Xiaobei had some special heritage, he could not offend this type of person! She had to take Chen Xiaobei away!
However, Chen Xiaobei had a different view. He stood at the same spot, looking directly at Situ Hengfeng and said, "My technique is a secret! But I can guarantee you that your method will not work!"
"Hmph! Are you blind? The smog is obviously gone and you said it's not going to work?" Situ Hengfeng was bubbling with anger, on the verge of exploding.
Chen Xiaobei nonchalantly replied, "I'll repeat, the smog that you blew hundreds of meters away, it's not going to solve any problems for the airport."
"Nonsense! I was only displaying a small part of my skills!" Situ Hengfeng coldly said, "I can borrow the wind and prove that this method is feasible! As long as I put down the Divine Gust formations, this problem can perfectly be solved."
The talismans and formation were all created by the mysterious power of runes, and the effect of the formation was far stronger than the talismans.
The few talismans that were burnt earlier blew the smog a few hundred meters away.
If he arranged hundreds of formations along the mountain, he could indeed blow the smog away from the entire airport!
However, Chen Xiaobei laughed.
"Amazing! My master! You are suggesting of placing hundreds of Divine Gust formations along the mountain! Wouldn't that cost a lot of jade? How much manpower and materials would it take? I'm not good at math but I can guarantee that that budget would be easy enough to build another airport!"
A while back, it cost Chen Xiaobei nine hundred millions with if jade stone! That was already a discount price because of his relationship with Cao Chenyang. More importantly, with all the jade runes, Chen Xiaobei made a successful production without any additional loss. Others could not achieve the same kind of effect since it has only a 50% success rate. Just like that, by simply calculating the cost of Situ Hengfeng's technique, the purchase of the jades would already be hundreds of billions!
Along with the cost of manpower and material resources added, the figure would be astronomical!
"This…" Situ Hengfeng was dumbfounded; he could not refute Chen Xiaobei's statement.
Yap Maosong held his words. He knew that Chen Xiaobei was not wrong. He thought about it and said, "We can build several at first and see how it turns out. As long as there's an effect, the top management will provide the funding for support!"
"Hey! Good idea!" Chen Xiaobei grinned and said, "However, you should ask Master Situ first, how long does it take to build a formation?"
Yap Maosong was stunned and looked at Situ Hengfeng.
"The shortest is half a year and the longest would be for a year or two… It depends on the success rate of making the runes." Situ Hengfeng muttered under his breath.
It must be known that not everyone possessed the Scholar's Heart and the Ma Liang Divine Pen. In the mortal world, it was absolutely impossible to complete a formation within a short time like Chen Xiaobei!
*Pfft*
Yap Maosong almost spat blood out.
"A year or two, I can't even wait for half a year… The higher-ups want me to solve this problem before the end of the year! Otherwise, I will be demoted..."
"This... What can we do?" Yap Tianlin asked anxiously.
Although the Yap family was an Empire in business terms , there were only had a few of them that were involved in politics. It was not easy for Yap Maosong to be the deputy mayor of Dragon City. Once he gets demoted, it was considered the end of his career. It would mean a huge loss to the Yap family.
Yap Tianlin was the heir of the Yap family and he was not prepared to see that happening. Anxiously, he pleaded, "Master Situ, please think of another way!"
Situ Hengfeng shook his head and helplessly said, "I was asked by your great grandfather to supported your family. If there's another way, I would not hide it… The problem is… I really have no other ways…"
As soon as he uttered those words, Yap Tianlin and Yap Maosong expressed despair on their faces.
The experts around also let out a sigh. In their eyes, if even Master Situ that was greatly skilled had no other techniques, it was terrifying to think that there was no one in the world that could solve this problem!
"Do you need my help? For this case, I have a solution that doesn't require money and the effect is immediate!"
At that moment, Chen Xiaobei cheerfully looked at them.
"You're joking aren't you?" Yap Tianlin glared at him and snapped, "If you have a plan, then say it quickly!"
"Beg me then! I will help! But only if you beg me!" Chen Xiaobei lips curled into a sinister smile.
