Under One Person: I, Jiaqian Jushi, work from nine to five.

"Thank you, I'll find a way to pay you back the money I owe you."

"?"

Zhou Fengliu was completely dumbfounded as he watched Chen Duo walk out of the house.

money?

what money?

Why do you owe me money again?

I just casually used a basic attack, why did she take it so seriously?

Zhou Fengliu frowned, then unconsciously sighed at Chen Duo's straightforwardness.

He had barely finished sighing when he saw Wang Ye return to the house wearing only shorts.

"Old Zhou...you two seem to know each other quite well, coming to see you so late." Wang Ye sniffed and asked Zhou Fengliu.

It was clear that the nights in Biyou Village were a bit chilly, which made Master Wang quite cold.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Fengliu scratched his face and lay down on the bed, replying, "To say we're familiar isn't quite right, but to say we're not familiar isn't quite right either, since we're one of the mission targets."

After hearing Zhou Fengliu mention the mission objective, Wang Ye paused for a moment and then asked:

"Old Zhou, when are you guys making your move?"

"Hmm...the specific time depends on them. Anyway, I haven't received any notification. I'm just helping out like you, so asking me won't help you."

"If that doesn't work, let's just sweep through Biyou Village tonight and stop Old Ma. You're in charge of sweeping through Biyou Village and stopping Old Ma, and I'll be in charge of..."

Wang Ye suggested that since Zhou Fengliu had already agreed to help, they might as well just do what they did before and rashly conquer Biyou Village like they did with the Wang family.

"Good heavens, Lao Wang, how did you become so corrupted by Zhang Bilian?"

Upon hearing Wang Ye's words, Zhou Fengliu opened his eyes and glanced at Wang Ye. To be honest, if he didn't know that he shared a room with Wang Ye, he would have thought that Zhang Chulan had said those words.

"Is it?"

"Have I gone astray?" Wang Ye scratched his face.

...

now.

Just moments after being whispered about by Zhou Fengliu and Wang Ye behind their backs, Zhang Chulan, along with Feng Baobao and several temporary workers, were organizing the collected data on superior innate abilities.

It's worth mentioning that because Xu Si called him that night saying that Zhou Fengliu's participation in the operation had not yet been approved by his superiors, Zhang Chulan did not bring Zhou Fengliu over to have an in-depth conversation with the group of temporary workers.

After Gao Erzhuang, a temporary worker from Northeast China, compiled the information, everyone gained a general understanding of the villagers of Biyou Village and the information about Shanggenqi.

Compared to this information, Zhang Chulan was actually more shocked by the fact that the temporary worker from Northeast China, Gao Erzhuang, had such amazing abilities that he could separate his soul from his body for an extended period of time in an electronic wave state.

Electron waves...

That's pretty awesome. In this form, Gao Erzhuang can go wherever she wants... No one can stop her.

There are really quite a few talented people in the world of supernatural beings.

After taking the temporary worker from Northeast China more seriously, Zhang Chulan turned to look at the information on the Superior Talents on his phone.

After reading the document, he stroked his chin and felt that there was no major problem.

To be honest, ever since he learned that Zhou Fengliu would help him, he felt that none of the obstacles in Biyou Village were a problem.

"What should we do with this new guy, Zhuge Qing?" Qiu'er from the Southwest Region finished reading Shang Genqi's information and glanced at everyone present.

"Oh, Lao Qing, it's alright, just get to work, don't spoil him."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Chulan remarked that since Zhuge Qing had joined Biyou Village, there was no way he would get any good juice.

"Alright, we've got the gist of it. Let's discuss it and get ready to take action." Qiu'er nodded in response to Zhang Chulan continuing to do what Zhuge Qing was doing as usual.

Hearing this, Zhang Chulan raised an eyebrow: "What do you mean, 'get physical'?"

"Destroy Biyou Village, bring back Chen Duo, and stop Ma Xianhong from arbitrarily transforming superhumans again!" Qiu'er was somewhat puzzled by Zhang Chulan's words.

"Isn't it?"

"Yes... I know all that. What I'm trying to say is... it's not the right time yet. There's still one most important thing that hasn't been decided yet."

"what's up?"

"The command above... the most direct command."

Chapter 165 Company Senior Management Meeting! (Second Update)

"The most direct command?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Zizai, who was standing to the side, pushed up his glasses and asked, "Zhang Chulan... what do you mean?"

"The meaning is very simple."

Zhang Chulan felt a little uncomfortable when he saw everyone looking at him.

"You've all seen how deep the waters are in Biyou Village. If they want to destroy Biyou Village, bloodshed is inevitable. We can deal with those supernatural beings, but you should know... there are still many ordinary people in Biyou Village."

"The orders we received from above were always vague. They were hesitant about whether to kill or not, release or arrest these people."

"They gave us this vague order so that we would take the blame."

"Although we have no choice but to take the blame, we can't just accept it so easily without any explanation."

After listening to Zhang Chulan's explanation, everyone remained silent for a few seconds before realizing the meaning behind his words.

"Hmm, that makes some sense, so what are you planning to do now?" Qiu'er asked Zhang Chulan after thinking for a moment.

"Isn't that simple? We have all the information, so let's just pass the buck back to them. Even if we take the blame, we need the higher-ups to personally give us a clear and detailed explanation of how these people in Biyou Village should be dealt with."

Zhang Chulan shook his phone and began to speak.

"..."

"Okay, let's do as North China says." After a moment of silence, everyone reached a consensus.

The next afternoon.

Inside the headquarters of Beijing Nadutong.

The heads of several regions rushed to the Beijing headquarters overnight for a meeting. Their urgent return to headquarters was naturally related to the cult's stronghold in Biyou Village.

Xu Si, dressed in a black suit, yawned and glanced at the people sitting in the conference room.

Besides the heads of their respective regions, several board members sat on either side of the conference table.

Zhao Fangxu, who was in the lead, sat in the main seat in the middle.

"Six of you, what do your men mean by this! We've already figured out the situation... why are you still pulling this stunt?"

A man wearing square glasses, holding a stack of documents, looked at the regional manager sitting not far away and asked a question.

His name is Huang Boren, and he is in charge of the research and development department at the company.

"Just do it! Why go through all that trouble?"

"Chairman Huang, can't you see? The brothers on the front lines are clearly demanding a clear stance from us..."

"I told you not to try anything funny, the brothers on the front lines aren't idiots..."

Opposite Huang Boren, a slightly younger, rugged man answered. As a director who had climbed up the ranks from the front lines, Bi Youlong naturally understood the thoughts of the frontline employees.

"Attitude? It must be to nip it in the bud. The new Jie Sect cannot be allowed to live," Huang Boren said.

“Good! I support Chairman Huang. The official order will be signed by Chairman Huang!” Bi Youlong immediately supported him upon hearing his decisiveness.

"No... wait a minute." Huang Boren's expression changed instantly when he heard that he was to sign an order, and he became restless.

"We're still discussing this, aren't we? How can I make such a unilateral decision when everyone's around?"

When it seemed things were about to get serious, Huang Boren chickened out, gave an awkward laugh, and looked at the other board members present.

“Extremes are not an option.” Just then, Zhao Fangxu, who was in the main seat, finally spoke slowly.

"Everyone, our duty at All-Knowing is to maintain a balance between the world of supernatural beings and the real world. We cannot go from one extreme to the other..."

“If extreme measures to eradicate the root of the problem could solve all the problems, then we wouldn’t need to set up any major regions, and the country wouldn’t need us to maintain the balance.”

"Regarding the matter of Biyou Village, my opinion is that Biyou Village and the Body Cultivation Furnace must be destroyed, but those with superior aptitude and those who have undergone transformation should be captured as much as possible... As for how to deal with them, we'll discuss that later when they're brought back to the company."

"Of course, we must also ensure the safety of our comrades on the front lines. If they are truly obstinate, we may kill them."

Hearing Zhao Fangxu's opinion, everyone present had no objections. After all, compared to such an extreme approach as eradicating the root of the problem, arresting first and then dealing with it was obviously much more lenient.

"I'll listen to Chairman Zhao."

"Same for us."

Seeing that everyone agreed, Zhao Fangxu paused for a moment and then said:

"Also... everyone, I'd like to add one more person to the team that will carry out this mission."

When Zhao Fangxu said that one more person would be added, everyone present except Xu Si was taken aback.

"Chairman Zhao...who do you want to send over?" Huang Boren asked.

“Zhou Fengliu…” Zhao Fangxu still pushed Zhou Fengliu to the front of the board of directors.
