One person: I am Li Buren, I cannot bear to do anything!

Chapter 55 You want to cripple the Old Celestial Master?

"you..."

Chairman Su was furious, but he couldn't bear to look at Li, who had a calm expression, and was at a loss for what to do.

Li couldn't bear to watch as the board members, some excited, some helpless, and some with gloomy expressions, ignored everything.

He casually took out his phone, which displayed a WeChat message from an hour earlier.

From Ding Shian.

"【picture】"

The image quality is not very clear, probably because the lens was shattered during the last fight.

But based on his memory, Li Buren quickly identified the place.

Xilin Gol Grassland.

"You'd better hurry if you have something to do, don't keep the old master waiting too long."

After casually sending the message, Li couldn't bear to turn off his phone and begin scrutinizing the directors present.

Just as tensions were about to rise, Chairman Su suddenly received a text message.

She glared at him and then hurriedly walked out, saying something like, "Okay, I'll take a plane right away, I won't be late."

Immediately after Chairman Su left, a somewhat overweight middle-aged man walked in.

The person who came was wearing glasses and squinting, yet he gave off a feeling of both friendliness and authority.

"Chairman Zhao."

"Chairman Zhao."

The board members in the meeting room all stood up and greeted the newcomer.

Chairman Zhao and Zhao Fangxu nodded in response, each with a smile on their face.

"Thank you all for your hard work."

"You may all return to your respective positions. I will speak with Master Li here."

Upon hearing this, the directors all felt uneasy.

Although this Taoist priest Li is young, his actions and personality are like a sharpened sword.

Although it was concealed in its sheath, the sword's aura emanated from it, making people quite wary.

After the other directors had all left, Zhao Fangxu looked at the closed door and casually pressed a button.

All cameras and recording devices in the room were powered off.

He pulled up a chair and sat down next to Li Buren.

"Master Li, seeing is believing."

A friendly smile appeared on Zhao Fangxu's plump face as he moved the chair he was sitting on closer to Li Buren.

"Chairman Zhao is the real deal. He cares about the stability of the supernatural world. I admire him."

Zhao Fangxu nodded.

"Since Master Li is so straightforward, he must know why I invited him here. So I'll be frank with him."

"Did the Celestial Master really only come down the mountain this time for revenge?"

Li couldn't bear to look up at Zhao Fangxu, but didn't say anything.

Zhao Fangxu nodded. He didn't press the matter further; that would be something only a fool would do.

Often, silence is the answer.

"Although we haven't figured out the old master's true purpose, his actions have seriously contradicted our goals!"

"This is also the stability that our company has been striving to achieve for a long time!"

Zhao Fangxu's voice turned stern, revealing the authority of a superior.

"I know he's an expert. He comes and goes without a trace and can perfectly handle all the cleanup work so that ordinary people can't see any problems."

"What about the supernatural beings? What will happen to the world of supernatural beings?"

"Is it possible that Longhu Mountain, and even the Zhengyi Sect, are declaring war on the Quanxing Sect?"

"How chaotic will the world of supernatural beings be then?"

Li waved his hand, unable to bear it.

"That was the Old Master's choice, what are you telling me?"

Zhao Fangxu sighed and looked at Li Buren.

"Before the old Celestial Master went down the mountain, he gathered ten disciples, but in the end, he only took one of them, Zhao Huanjin, with him."

"After that, the only people he contacted were you and Wang Ye. He was even willing to let you do some things on his behalf, which is enough to prove his trust in you."

"Therefore, the company would like to ask you to mediate."

Li couldn't bear it any longer and reached out a hand to make a stop gesture.

"So? What's the reason?"

"For love and peace? For the company's hard work?"

The young Taoist priest closed his eyes, recalling the look in Tian Jinzhong's eyes that night.

No one dies in vain.

"Whether it's Master Tian or Quanxing, it's all about cause and effect."

Zhao Fangxu's voice lowered.

"You don't want to go?"

"I can go, but I won't interfere with the Celestial Master's choice. I have a relationship with the Celestial Master."

Zhao Fangxu stood up.

"You should know that the company is not run by one person alone."

"Besides us, the Ten Elders also have the obligation and ability to handle important matters in the world of supernatural beings."

After some deliberation and struggle, Zhao Fangxu made a decision.

"Master Li, I don't know if you are aware of this, but the company has never had a death penalty policy."

"The ultimate punishment is to abolish all the meridians in the body."

Upon hearing this, Li Buren's eyebrows twitched, and he suddenly smiled.

Zhao Fangxu looked serious.

"The old master's actions this time have caused quite a stir in the world of supernatural beings."

"Whether it's his identity or his strength, he's of great importance in the world of supernatural beings. He should understand this principle and the consequences."

"If we really consider this, we should disable him!"

He subconsciously looked at Li Buren, wanting to see how the young man would react.

There was no anger as I had imagined, no furious outburst, and no questioning.

Li Buren simply opened his phone and sent a message to the Old Master.

"The temperature difference is large on the grassland, please remember to wear more clothes, don't catch a cold tomorrow for the decisive battle."

After sending the message, Li couldn't help but wave his phone in front of Zhao Fangxu.

Zhao Fangxu covered his head and gave a wry smile.

"Master Li... our company's matter is minor, but if it really reaches the Ten Elders..."

"Will it be a big deal?"

Li couldn't bear to continue.

Zhao Fangxu wiped his sweat and sighed.

"Try to persuade him, Master Li."

"If we back down now, we can help mediate with the old master."

"The battle on the grasslands involved far too many people and too wide a scope; no one could bear the consequences."

"We know you have a grudge against that person from the Ten Elders' side. This is a good opportunity to meet and try to smooth things over..."

Li Buren also stood up.

"snort."

"Give them some advice? But that's all you can do."

"As for that one..."

The usually lazy Taoist straightened up and walked outside.

"A mountain king does not fight with jackals and dogs."

...

Wang Ye, sitting downstairs, was engrossed in scrolling through his phone, seemingly completely unconcerned about his senior who was still being interrogated.

"Hey, stop playing around, let's go."

Li Buren strode out of the elevator in his cloth shoes and casually greeted Wang Ye.

Wang Ye jumped up from the sofa and followed Li Buren out.

The two men dressed as Taoist priests seemed somewhat out of place in Na Du Tong, a respectable company full of honest employees.

"Junior brother, did you ask your family to come pick you up by car?"

"No."

Did you call a ride-hailing service?

"No, not at all."

"Then look, what's that?"

Following Li Buren's pointing finger, a luxurious extended Range Rover executive car was parked outside the company.

A tall, burly, but bald man stood to the side, waving and smiling at Li Buren and Wang Ye.
