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

"Zhou Fengliu?"

Upon hearing this name, Wang Ai's expression turned even uglier than before. He knew that his great-grandson, Wang Bing, was still unconscious, and he hadn't yet settled the score with Zhou Fengliu, that ungrateful brat.

Lu Jin was surprised to see Zhang Chulan introduce Zhou Fengliu.

"What are you thinking?" Lu Jin asked.

"Well..." Chu Lan scratched his head slightly, a little embarrassed, when he mentioned this:

"Actually, the seniors present could also see... how weak my championship was."

"You could say I got here on my own. If Zhou Fengliu hadn't conceded yesterday, I wouldn't have been able to win this championship. All the seniors have witnessed Zhou Fengliu's strength, and he absolutely deserves the title of the number one player of the new generation."

"If Senior Lu really wants to find a successor for the Tongtian Talisman, I think... Zhou Fengliu is a good choice, both in terms of ranking and strength."

Zhang Chulan explained his reasons.

Chapter 97 Bonus? Or Reward? The Heavenly Scroll is in my hands? (Bonus Chapter)

Zhang Chulan pondered this decision for two days.

Zhou Fengliu helped him in so many ways during this Luo Tian Grand Ceremony, from the initial special training to clearing obstacles in the competition, and even the difficulties caused by the Ten Elders Lü Ci and Wang Ai. Zhou Fengliu was always there for him.

Although Zhou Fengliu claimed it was all about mutual benefit and getting what he wanted, it didn't change the fact that Zhou Fengliu helped him, and that he was the one who took advantage of Zhou Fengliu.

Therefore... that's why he made this decision, introducing Zhou Fengliu to Lu Jin as a new option.

With Zhou Fengliu's strength, he is fully capable of handling the troubles brought about by the Eight Extraordinary Techniques and they can even help him improve his strength. Who knows, they might even be able to help him in the future.

Upon hearing Zhang Chulan introduce Zhou Fengliu, Lu Jin felt a strange mix of emotions.

He really wanted to find a successor for the Tongtian Talisman, and Zhou Fengliu was indeed suitable in every way. If there were no shady dealings, he should have been the first choice, but...

He was never satisfied with passing on this Heavenly Scroll to a junior who had first slapped his great-granddaughter hard and then messed with him.

"Zhang Chulan has already made the introduction, do you gentlemen have any objections?" Lu Jin looked at the elderly people behind him.

“I disagree,” Wang Ai was the first to voice her opposition.

"This person is wicked and even attacked my great-grandson during the competition. He is still unconscious. If such a person inherits the Tongtian Talisman, who knows how much danger he will cause."

It was not surprising that Wang Ai opposed the others, after all, Wang Ai had disliked Zhou Fengliu before.

Apart from Wang Ai, neither Lü Ci nor Feng Zhenghao spoke. Lü Ci was waiting for the Old Master to speak, while Feng Zhenghao simply remained silent because his status was lower than that of the Ten Elders.

“Old Lu…” the old Celestial Master slowly began to speak: “You were the one who took out this Heavenly Scroll. Why are you asking us old folks for a successor?”

The old master gave an ambiguous answer, essentially throwing the ball back to Lu Jin's feet.

Although the old Celestial Master intended to have Lu Jin pass on these eight extraordinary skills to his closed-door disciple Zhang Lingyu, the matter had already been brought up, and unless Zhou Fengliu also did not want this Heavenly Talisman, it was not appropriate to bring it up.

“Old Celestial Master, if you put it that way... then I have no reason to refuse. If you don’t want the first place, then let’s pass the order down.” Lu Jin still intended to pass on the Tongtian Talisman.

"Where's that kid Zhou Fengliu?"

"What about people?"

He searched for Zhou Fengliu's figure, completely ignoring Wang Ai's objections, which made Wang Ai somewhat embarrassed.

Embarrassing as it was, he couldn't say anything more. The highest-ranking person here was the Old Celestial Master, and the one who provided the Tongtian Talisman was Lu Jin. Neither of them had any objections, so how could he object?

"Brother Liu?" Zhang Chulan suddenly thought of something.

When he came over with Xu San, Xu Si, and Feng Baobao, he didn't see Zhou Fengliu. He asked Xu Si and learned that Zhou Fengliu had said he wanted to sleep in late and come back later...

Thinking of this, he said somewhat embarrassedly to Lu Jin, "Um, Senior Lu, I'm sorry, Brother Liu seems to still be sleeping... I'll go call him, he'll be there in a bit."

“…” Lu Jin.

"..." Old Master.

"...Ten Elders".

"No...is he really that indifferent?" Lu Jin asked.

"Um... I didn't inform Zhou Fengliu about this beforehand, I'm so sorry." Zhang Chulan said as he made a phone call to Zhou Fengliu.

When Zhou Fengliu answered the phone, he looked completely bewildered and didn't hear what Zhang Chulan was saying.

All I heard was, "Hurry up, Brother Liu, they're handing out bonuses over here, come quick!"

bonus?

bonus!

Zhou Fengliu mistook Zhang Chulan's mention of reward for a bonus, which jolted him awake from his sleep.

Without washing up or changing his clothes, he went to the place Zhang Chulan had mentioned.

"Where? The bonus? How come I didn't know the Celestial Master's Mansion gave out bonuses?" Zhou Fengliu asked Zhang Chulan as soon as he arrived.

"Brother Liu... it's a reward, not a bonus." Zhang Chulan pointed to Lu Jin not far away and then briefly explained how he had been introduced.

"What the hell? The Heavenly Talisman? You're passing it on to me?" Zhou Fengliu raised an eyebrow and then said, "I don't know how to use talismans either."

Whether it's his seemingly magical manipulation techniques or his intense confrontation at the Luo Tian Grand Ceremony, he doesn't seem like someone who could be associated with a talisman master.

"You don't know how? Can't you learn?" Lu Jin walked over irritably and placed the Tongtianlu notebook in his hand:

"I didn't know this before...don't you have to learn it?"

After Lu Jin finished speaking, he quickly tried to give Zhou Fengliu a good whack to vent his anger, but Zhou Fengliu seemed to have noticed Lu Jin's movement and almost subconsciously dodged to the side.

"Senior Lu... another sneak attack? Too bad, he still missed."

Zhou Fengliu said he had already anticipated Lu Jin's movements. Having slapped others so many times, he knew exactly where to slap them the moment they raised their hands, making it quite easy for him to dodge.

"You brat... Fine, fine! I've already passed on the Heavenly Scroll to you, can't you even let this old man vent his anger? Give you a good slap?"

Lu Jin seems to be a stubborn person, and he just had to get revenge for the time he slapped his great-granddaughter.

“Senior Lu, please be reasonable. I have never provoked you... If you were saying that Old Master Wang wanted to beat me up to vent his anger, that would be one thing, but this is not fair.” Zhou Fengliu pointed at Wang Ai, who was not far away.

Don't say it.

Wang Ai really wanted to beat Zhou Fengliu to death, preferably to make him wish he were dead, but Zhou Fengliu brought it up, so he couldn't do anything about it and could only snort coldly.

"Um... Senior Lu, even if you pass on this Tongtian Talisman to me, I still won't know how to use it. How about you take the trouble to teach me everything I need to know?"

Zhou Fengliu did not refuse the Tongtian Scroll. Since the Tongtian Scroll was in his hands, he considered it a stroke of good fortune.

His current state of mind is as if he had found a piece of the Imperial Seal of the State on the street.

Before finding it: Isn't it just a broken rock? What good would it do even if I got it?

After finding it: It is ordained by Heaven that you will live a long and prosperous life, this is the will of Heaven!

"Hey, you little brat... how come I never noticed how thick-skinned you were before?" Lu Jin looked at Zhou Fengliu and felt that the young man's skin was indeed thick to a certain extent.

"Let me slap you once, and then I'll teach you."

“Then I’ll study it myself. Thank you very much, Senior Lu,” Zhou Fengliu said.

He stated that it was impossible for Lu Jin to slap him back, and that it was impossible for Lu Jin to slap him back in this lifetime.

"..."

Thanks to Zhang Chulan's introduction, the Tongtian Talisman eventually ended up in Zhou Fengliu's hands. To be honest, even Zhou Fengliu himself didn't expect this turn of events.

...

P.S.: Thank you to my godfather for the gift during the Great Cold and the Awakening of Insects!

Thank you all for your support, here's an extra chapter. Goodnight everyone!

Chapter 98 You want the Heavenly Scroll? Sure, but do you have any money? (First Update)

Although Zhang Chulan didn't want the Tongtian Talisman in the original novel, and Lu Jin passed it on to the second person, it was still passed on to Zhang Lingyu under the guidance of the Old Celestial Master.

How could an ordinary worker with no background compete with Master Ayu, a direct disciple of the Celestial Master, even though he came in second?

So Zhou Fengliu didn't even come over this morning, intending to sleep in, but who would have thought he'd be summoned to receive the Tongtian Talisman before he was even fully awake...

Looking at the Tongtian Talisman in his hand, Zhou Fengliu stroked his chin and fell into deep thought.

...

The news that Zhou Fengliu inherited the Tongtian Talisman quickly spread. Those who had witnessed the Luotian Grand Ceremony found this result reasonable, given Zhou Fengliu's renowned reputation as a warrior god.

That night.

Zhang Chulan and Feng Baobao waited for the Old Master to return with the guests.

Zhang Chulan was very nervous at this moment, and along with the nervousness came a bit of excitement at the prospect of learning the truth. Feng Baobao, who was standing next to him, was no better off.

"Really? Hmm, I understand. We'll go make the arrangements." While waiting, Xu Si received a phone call, then whispered a few words to Xu San, before glancing at Zhang Chulan and Feng Baobao:

"Baby, Chu Lan, let's leave for a while..."

"it is good..."

Zhang Chulan nodded and continued to wait for the Old Celestial Master's arrival.

A slight chill in the wind made Zhang Chulan, who was wearing short sleeves, shiver. He looked up and suddenly realized that the crescent moon in the night sky had been covered by thick clouds.

On this dark and stormy night, a night destined for murder, Longhu Mountain was not going to be peaceful. Zhang Chulan looked towards the distant woods with a hint of worry in his heart.

...

at the same time.

Zhou Fengliu did not accompany Zhang Chulan to receive any Celestial Master's inheritance. He was destined to be sleepless tonight, as he had just received news that the Quanxing sect had entered the network and was on standby.

"It's so cold."

Zhou Fengliu walked through the woods with his familiar black backpack on his back. Although he was wearing the company uniform jacket, it was still a little chilly.

At this moment, he was walking towards the courtyard where Tian Jinzhong usually lived, following the coordinates provided by the "insider" Lingyu Zhenren.

As for why we went there, it was purely to maximize our profits tonight. Since we were just messing around anyway, we might as well use the information we already had to maximize our own interests.

According to the original plot, a traitor appeared in the Celestial Master's Mansion. The person seemed to be Xiao Yuzi, who had served Tian Jinzhong for three years. His identity was Gong Qing, the acting leader of Quanxing.

He had been hiding in the Celestial Master's Mansion for three years, just to get some information about the Jia Shen Rebellion and the Eight Extraordinary Skills from Tian Jinzhong. Tonight's attack on the mountain by Quanxing was orchestrated by him.
