I stormed down the mountain, took down all the big shots in the city, and the female CEO dragged me

"Dad, go find someone quickly, I need to get revenge."

Guan Shuai lay on the sofa, his voice hoarse, his hand supporting his neck, his eyes overflowing with hatred.

"We'll make that country bumpkin from the small town leave lying down."

"Alright, you just stay put." Mr. Guan said calmly, his eyes full of disappointment in his son.

"A loud and boisterous person will never amount to much."

"I refuse to accept this, I just refuse to accept it."

Guan Shuai struggled to his feet: "If I don't avenge this, how can I ever face anyone in this industry again?"

What do people in my circle think of me?

They'll laugh at me when they see me.

"I must get my revenge."

Mr. Guan sighed, shook his head, and looked at his wife.

"Keep an eye on him, don't let him go out and cause trouble for me."

You've caused a huge disaster; no one can save you then.

Watching his father's departing figure, Guan Shuai snorted coldly.

If you don't care, I'll figure it out myself.

The city of Beijing was ablaze with lights. After dinner, Xu Yuan sat in the passenger seat next to Xiao Qing, gazing out at the dazzling metropolis with towering skyscrapers reaching into the sky.

"Are you settling in well after coming down the mountain?"

"At first I wasn't used to it, but I gradually got used to it."

Xu Yuan responded softly, "Life is fine, but dealing with people is really tiring."

"My master once said that people's hearts are unpredictable, and the complexities of life down the mountain are all man-made. You have to get used to it gradually."

Xu Yuan nodded emphatically: "This is probably why Master wants me to go down the mountain. Master said that the best cultivation is in the mortal world, not in books, and now I understand that deeply."

"Others enter the Tao after seeing through the world, but I am different. I entered the Tao first and then entered the world. It is also a new experience."

The car pulled into the hotel where Xu Yuan was staying. Xu Yuan got out of the car and waved goodbye to Xiao Qing with reluctance. As soon as she turned around, she saw a familiar figure looking at her coldly.

Du Aili tilted her head and watched Xiao Qing's car drive away, then walked away expressionlessly.

Are you waiting for me?

"Who was waiting for you? I was just passing by." Du Aili said something she didn't mean.

He was extremely worried after hearing what happened between Xu Yuan and Guan Shuai from Shang Tiantian, so he came early to check on the situation.

As a result, only Kim Kyung-seok and the others were at the hotel. She only saw Xu Yuan now, and she was worried to death.

She was about to be happy to see Xu Yuan return, but when she saw him get out of a woman's car, and that woman was so beautiful, her anger flared up instantly.

Well, you've made people worry to death.

You, on the other hand, are chatting and laughing with women.

Seeing that she was really about to leave, Xu Yuan stepped forward to block Du Aili's path, staring at her face with a sly grin.

Are you jealous?

"Who's jealous of you?" Du Aili denied it outright: "You have such a beautiful woman who brought you back, why don't you go find her?"

"Leave me alone."

Xu Yuan chuckled: "You're so seriously jealous, and you're even suppressing it. Do you know how adorable you are?"

Du Aili took another step, but Xu Yuan reached out and grabbed her wrist.

"That's my senior, I met her by chance and we had a meal together."

Du Aili's face remained cold upon hearing Xu Yuan's explanation, but she had already relaxed.

Oh, it's my senior sister.

Zhang Ruonan is already living in his house, which is enough to make Du Aili jealous.

If another woman this beautiful comes along, his trip to the capital will have been for nothing.

"You don't need to explain to me."

Du Aili walked quickly to Shang Tiantian's car, opened the door, and got in.

"Sweetie, let's go."

Shang Tiantian stuck her tongue out at Xu Yuan: "I won't tell you that Lili is staying at the Sunshine Hotel. If you can't sleep tonight, come over."

"It's not far from here, just one intersection away."

"Sweetie," Du Aili called out, feigning anger.

Shang Tiantian gave Xu Yuan a knowing look, started the car, and drove away.

Xu Yuan stood there, smiling helplessly: "Women are really strange."

"Mr. Xu, you're finally back."

Kim Kyung-seok suddenly appeared out of nowhere, grinning as he looked in the direction Xu Yuan was looking.

"Mr. Xu, why don't you invite Miss Du up for a seat? She's been waiting here for hours."

Xu Yuan glanced at him but didn't answer, and walked into the hotel.

In the elevator, Kim Kyung-seok carefully examined Xu Yuan: "Mr. Xu, nothing bad has happened, has it?"

"After I came back, I carefully inquired about Li Quanyou's background. That old guy is really something else."

Did he give you any trouble?

Do I look like something's wrong to you?

With one hand behind his back and a calm expression, Xu Yuan said, "No matter how powerful he is, he'll have to stay far away when he hears my name."

"That's right, that's right." Jin Jingshuo rarely flattered him: "Just based on Mr. Xu's relationship with Elder Ye, I dare say he wouldn't dare to touch you, not to mention you have unpredictable and mysterious methods."

"Alright, stop flattering me. Go back and wash up and go to bed early."

Xu Yuan opened her bedroom door and shut Kim Kyung-seok out.

Kim Kyung-seok remained respectful through the door: "Mr. Xu, would you like to experience the nightlife of the capital?"

The nightlife here is much more vibrant than in Mingdai.

"I'm not going. If you want to go, go by yourself," Xu Yuan replied.

Disappointment flashed in Kim Kyung-seok's eyes.

Xu Yuan had helped him a lot, and he didn't know how to thank her, so he thought he would take Xu Yuan out to play that night.

"Then you should get some rest."

Kim Kyung-seok said something, turned around and went downstairs again. Xu Yuan might not go, but he was going.

Xu Yuan drew the curtains, took a shower, changed into his pajamas, sat cross-legged on the floor, took out nine bamboo slips and placed them in front of him, scanning them one by one with his eyes.

Some of the writing on it is incomplete, while some is still intact. It will take some time to fully restore it.

He closed his eyes slightly, his true energy spreading throughout his body. As he circulated his energy, the bamboo slips placed on the ground floated up, forming a circle around the wisher and slowly rotating.

Xu Yuan slowly opened his eyes, a flame appeared from his sword finger, the bamboo slip was turned in front of him, he lightly tapped it with his sword finger, the damaged bamboo slip stopped spinning and stopped in front of him.

He carefully examined each character on the bamboo slip, noticing the damaged and missing parts. With his fingers like a sword, he quickly carved into the bamboo slip.

Once a bamboo slip is repaired, the tattered slip comes back to life, as if red blood is slowly flowing between the lines, and the blocked parts gradually regain their former glory.

Xu Yuan focused intently on the bamboo slips in front of him, one after another, completely unaware that a fine layer of sweat was beading on his forehead.

Time passed second by second, and Xu Yuan himself didn't know how much time had gone by. After repairing the last bamboo slip, he stopped practicing and exhaled a long breath.

"It's done."

Xu Yuan held the restored bamboo slips in his hand, his eyes brimming with undisguised excitement.

Bamboo slips can now be considered true ritual implements.

If a jade belt could be added to string together the nine bamboo slips, its power would be even greater.
