After rebirth, they all want to monopolize me

Chapter 188 Foundation Building and Protection
Upon receiving this notification, Jiang Li immediately went to the team leader's meeting room of the Dragon Guard Division.

The conference room was already full of people, and Jiang Li realized that she seemed to be the last person to arrive.

As soon as Jiang Li entered the conference room, Huang Huowang came over enthusiastically.

"Jiang Li, you're here! You've been quite famous lately, you've already reached the eighth level of Qi Refining."

Huang Huowang patted Jiang Li's arm.

Huang Huowang has been very busy lately, and he's often nowhere to be seen.

This was the first time Huang Huowang and Jiang Li had met since they arrived in Changbai Mountain.

However, Huang Huowang kept hearing news about Jiang Li.

After all, once a Dragon Guardian breaks through a certain realm, they need to report it to the company through an app, and then each person's realm will be publicly displayed on the Dragon Guardian's internal app.

Jiang Li's current cultivation level ranks second in the entire Linhai City Dragon Guard Division, second only to Liu Yanzheng.

Besides, the employees of the Dragon Guardian Division had all heard about Jiang Li's activities in the island nation.

"Brother Jiang, I've heard so much about you. I've heard about what you did in Changbai Mountain and I've always admired you." Several leaders of the Dragon Guard Division came up to greet him, and Jiang Li responded politely to each of them.

"And what you did in Japan, Brother Jiang, was absolutely satisfying."

"Not at all, I was just doing what I was supposed to do," Jiang Li said modestly.

Although some people had expressed doubts when she became the team leader in the past, Jiang Li didn't take it to heart at all.

Even Jiang Li could understand, after all, she was too young back then.

A team leader is not only responsible for themselves, but also for their team members and, more importantly, for the victims who are caught up in the situation.

I feel pretty good now that I've gained the recognition of these long-time employees.

While Jiang Li was chatting with everyone, Xia Die walked into the conference room not long after, and everyone gradually quieted down and returned to their seats.

Compared to Liu Yanzheng, who often wears a smile, Xia Die, as her secretary, always has a cold demeanor, giving people a feeling that strangers should not approach her.

"The reason I asked all the group leaders to come here today is because, as I mentioned in the text message, our Deputy Director Liu is about to enter the Foundation Establishment Realm. However, Foundation Establishment is the biggest hurdle on the path of cultivation."

Before this, no one had ever built a foundation.

Deputy Director Liu is very likely the world's first Foundation Establishment cultivator.

Xia Die was as simple as ever.

"This time, the Foundation Establishment will be carried out in a villa on the outskirts of Linhai City. Although other departments will help with security outside the villa, there are some things that only we cultivators can guard against. We are worried that something unexpected might happen, so we asked you all to be our protectors."

Now, I will assign the tasks.

For the next half hour, Xia Die talked about the villa.

This villa was recently built and belongs to the Dragon Guardian Division. It was constructed according to the design of a spirit-gathering array.

Such villas are actually found in every province and city's Dragon Guard Bureau. Their main purpose is to provide some assistance when cultivators are about to establish their foundation.

This is the advantage of having an organization backing you.

Jiang Li listened to Xia Die's introduction.

The success rate of foundation building in this villa can even be increased by 20%!

"Does everyone understand what I've said? If there's anything you don't understand, you can ask me now." After speaking, Xia Die scanned the crowd.

The people weren't fools, and as their cultivation level increased, they learned things faster. They had already memorized all the details.

"Alright, in that case, let's go eat. I'll leave this mission to you all."

Xia Die bowed to everyone.

Xia Die's attitude was unexpected by Jiang Li.

She has always been a very composed person. This bow in the meeting room carried a certain degree of personal emotion.

This shows that although Xia Die occasionally criticizes her boss.

But the two of them seem to have a really good relationship.

After having lunch, Jiang Li and the others boarded a bus and headed to the villa.

There were many people in security guard uniforms standing around the villa. These people were not real security guards, but people from other departments who came here to assist.

They did not completely seal off the perimeter of the villa.

Because this place is located in the suburbs of Linhai City, there are hardly any people there.

If the lockdown is too large-scale, it could backfire.

Upon arriving at the villa, Jiang Li and the others saw Liu Yanzheng sitting in the courtyard. The spiritual energy within her body seemed to be unable to be suppressed, constantly dissipating outwards.

"It may take me one to two hours to complete my Foundation Establishment. I'll have to trouble you all during that time," Liu Yanzheng said to Jiang Li and the others.

"Director Liu, you're too kind."

"Director Liu, your ability to reach the Foundation Establishment stage has paved the way for us cultivators. You may even be the first person of the human race to reach the Foundation Establishment stage. Your contribution is truly remarkable!"

"Don't worry, Director, we will definitely protect you and ensure that nothing happens to you!"

Some team leaders stepped forward and said.

This isn't exactly flattery.

In their hearts, they truly admired Liu Yanzheng.

Although Director Liu had studied Taoist magic since childhood and had a certain foundation, his ability to reach the Foundation Establishment stage so quickly was due not only to his talent but also to his tireless efforts.

“Alright.” Liu Yanzheng smiled. “If I successfully establish my foundation this time, headquarters will also give out a lot of bonuses, which will be added to your year-end bonuses.”

"The Director is truly awe-inspiring!"

"Anyone who dares to disturb the Chief's Foundation Establishment will be my sworn enemy."

The atmosphere immediately became lively.

Once everyone had arrived, Liu Yanzheng sat in the middle of the courtyard, preparing to begin her foundation-building process.

Jiang Li and the others sat in different positions within the magic array, taking charge of its operation.

If anyone tries to interfere, they'll have to get past them first.

In addition, there were people from other departments guarding the perimeter of the villa.

Liu Yanzheng's intention to establish a foundation was not publicized or made much of a commotion.

Just as Liu Yanzheng was about to break through to the next realm, the magic array beneath her emitted a pale yellow glow, and the white clouds in the sky kept approaching, gradually turning black.

The sky was clear and blue, but in less than fifteen minutes, it became covered with dark clouds.

"Boom!"

A bolt of lightning streaked across the sky, followed by a thunderclap that echoed through the heavens.

In a small village ten miles away, an old man sitting in the courtyard of his self-built house looked up and asked, "What's going on? Didn't the weather forecast say it would be sunny? Is it going to rain?"

At the center of the magic circle, the spiritual energy grew increasingly dense.

"Boom!"

In an instant, a bolt of lightning struck Liu Yanzheng.
