Top Grade Pure Beauty CEO-Chapter 795 - Negotiations 5th Update

Chapter 795: Chapter 795: Negotiations [5th Update] Chapter 795: Chapter 795: Negotiations [5th Update] After stepping out of the main door, Wang Xiaorou said, “Wait for me for a moment.”

Then she pulled out her phone and dialed a number. The call was quickly answered, and Wang Xiaorou’s voice, icy to the extreme, resounded, “Ren Fali, this is the last time. If I find out you’re playing any more tricks on Li Xiaoyao, be ready to roll out of Jindu.”

With just that one sentence, she hung up.

On the other end, Ren Fali came to his senses, staring at his phone for a while, a cold sweat breaking out on his back.

Wang Xiaorou glanced at Xiao Ya, then turned to Li Xiaoyao and asked, “Do you have anything going on now?”

“Nothing, I’ll take her with me.”

Wang Xiaorou opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but in the end, she nodded, “Let’s go.”

...

Wang Xiaorou drove off first, and Li Xiaoyao followed behind with Xiao Ya in another car.

As soon as they got into the car, Xiao Ya asked, “What is Department One? It seems quite powerful.”

Li Xiaoyao wasn’t sure how to explain and gave a noncommittal answer, “It should be considered one of the most powerful organizations in Xuan Country, I guess.”

“Oh,” Xiao Ya didn’t ask further, but she felt a secret pride in her heart. Her man was really amazing, dealing with people of such caliber.

Driving through several turns, Wang Xiaorou eventually stopped in front of a large courtyard beneath the ancient Yan Palace.

Li Xiaoyao looked around, he had expected it to be some kind of secret location, but to his surprise, it was just here.

After getting out of the car, Wang Xiaorou addressed Li Xiaoyao, who was looking around, “This is the Military Governor’s home. He doesn’t usually bring people home for discussions. You’re the first one.”

“Oh, I guess I should feel quite honored then,” Li Xiaoyao said with a smile.

His thoughts spread out, and Li Xiaoyao could clearly see an old man sitting in the courtyard, playing Go with a young man.

Just like Wang Xiaorou had said, it was an ordinary courtyard, except that it was surrounded by soldiers concealed in the shadows, guarding the old man’s safety.

Moreover, Li Xiaoyao also noticed several subtle presences. Each of these presences was powerful, at the very least at the Spirit Condensation Realm in terms of cultivation level.

No wonder he was one of the highest authorities in Xuan Country; even his guards were so formidable.

“Knock knock knock,” Wang Xiaorou knocked gently on the door. The young man playing Go stood up to open the door, saw Wang Xiaorou, and asked, “Is the person here?”

“Yes,” Wang Xiaorou stepped aside, revealing Li Xiaoyao and the others behind her.

“Why is there an extra person?” the man asked, frowning in confusion.

Wang Xiaorou explained, “Li Xiaoyao’s woman.”

Then she introduced the man to Li Xiaoyao, “This is Lu Ting, you’ve met before.”

Of course, they had met before. When Li Xiaoyao was returning to the Li Family, he was targeted for assassination by Shi Feng and Su San. Lu Ting intervened, and Li Xiaoyao had openly threatened him.

Lu Ting stepped aside, opening the door wider, “Come in.”

The three of them entered the courtyard. Xiao Ya was a bit nervous, despite her broad experience, she had never faced such a high-level authority figure directly. She clung closely to Li Xiaoyao without saying a word.

Wang Xiaorou approached the old man and stood erect, giving him a military salute, “Military Governor, Li Xiaoyao has arrived.”

“Hmm, you all go out. I need to talk to him for a moment,” said the old man.

“Yes,” Wang Xiaorou turned around and said to Xiao Ya, “Let’s go outside.”

Xiao Ya looked at Li Xiaoyao. For some reason, the people here couldn’t make her feel safe.

Li Xiaoyao patted her hand, saying, “Go out and wait for me first, I’ll be right there.”

“Hmm.” Xiao Ya knew what kind of big shot Li Xiaoyao was about to face. Despite feeling somewhat scared, she obediently followed Wang Xiaorou out the door.

“Creak~”

With the door shut, only Li Xiaoyao and the old man were left in the courtyard.

Under Li Xiaoyao’s mental perception, the old man was also a cultivator, and his cultivation level was not low. However, compared to Li Xiaoyao’s, it was far too weak.

“Do you play chess?” The old man looked at him, smiling as he pointed at the chessboard and asked.

“No.” Of course, Li Xiaoyao knew how, but he had no desire to play chess with this old fellow. A game could take at least an hour, and he had no spare time to waste here. If there was something to discuss, they should just talk and then he would be on his way. He still had to have a three-hundred-round battle with Xiao Ya that night.

The old man paused for a few seconds, then smiled and said, “Come, have a seat.”

Before he could finish, Li Xiaoyao already plopped himself down and asked, “What should I call you, sir?”

“My surname is Liu.”

“Old Master Liu, you called me here in the middle of the night. What’s so important that it couldn’t wait?” Li Xiaoyao asked without a shred of politeness.

Old Master Liu had heard that Li Xiaoyao was a difficult person to get along with, but upon meeting him today, it seemed to be quite a difference from the rumors.

“I’ll take a liberty and call you Xiaoyao,” Old Master Liu said. “In a few days, it will be the grand ceremony for the Inspectors. Remember to dress formally.”

“Dress formally? In a suit and tie?” Li Xiaoyao sneered, “It’s just nominating a name, why dress so formally? If this outfit works for you, I’ll attend; if not, I won’t go that day.”

Old Master Liu looked amused yet helpless: “You little rascal, have it your way.”

“Do you know why I summoned you here today?”

“If I knew, would I have come here? We could’ve just communicated through our psychic connection,” Li Xiaoyao retorted.

“Your mouth is really quite something,” Old Master Liu felt that this young man was quite to his taste and, not holding back, revealed, “You have been officially selected to be an Inspector.”

“You sure you’re not playing with me?” Li Xiaoyao raised an eyebrow. He had always thought tonight’s meeting would be a routine questioning by the Department One for all the nominated candidates. But now, it seemed that was not the case.

Old Master Liu retorted, “Do I look like I’m joking?”

Li Xiaoyao said, “To be honest, I don’t see what’s so fun about this. If possible, I’d rather not be an Inspector.”

Li Xiaoyao was sincere in his words. Although he didn’t know what an Inspector did, he understood that once the nation took action, Inspectors would probably have to lead the charge.

At the end of the day, while the position was impressive, it was also dangerous.

Cultivators existed not only within the country but also spirit attachers abroad, and one wasn’t necessarily weaker than the other.

“Oh? Unwilling? Can you tell me why?” Seeing that Li Xiaoyao was not joking, Old Master Liu asked.

Li Xiaoyao looked at him and said, “Firstly, I am very busy, and I don’t have much time to be at the nation’s beck and call; secondly, the position is dangerous, always having to fight and kill some deranged cultivators, or clash with foreign powers.”

Old Master Liu nodded and said, “You make sense, but that is the very duty of an Inspector. The nation grants you great power, but it also expects you to pay a similar price in return.”

Li Xiaoyao said, “Then I would rather not have that power.”

“However,” Old Master Liu’s tone shifted, “as an Inspector, when the nation detects any secret realms or ancient tombs, you will be among the first beneficiaries to explore them.”

Li Xiaoyao laughed, “Are you sure that as the first explorers, we are the real beneficiaries? Such uncharted places hold immense risks; are you telling me you don’t know that?”

Old Master Liu fell silent for a moment, thinking to himself that this young man was indeed not easy to deal with.
