Everyday, Boss Is Pretending To Be Weak

Chapter 31.2 The Young Master’s cooking skills (2)

At the same time, in Yu Hao Hotel’s presidential suite, a man clothed in black suit had just returned from the outside and was sitting on the sofa. After hearing his subordinate’s report, his gaze deepened slightly.

“Are you saying that the security camera on the necklace wasn’t broken but we’re unable to see anything clearly?”

The subordinate couldn’t help but shrink back. “Boss, the subordinate could only surmise that it must’ve been blocked by the array.”

The man heard this and fell into contemplation for a few seconds before suddenly breaking into a laugh. His laughter induced a shiver in his subordinate. “He Zhou is much smarter than I had initially imagined. Perhaps the secret on the necklace could only be solved by him.”

His subordinate remained silent. When the man waved his hands, the subordinate promptly turned around but was called back the next second. “I heard that the assassins Zhengmo Sect sent out previously had disappeared without leaving a message, were their bodies also not found?”

“Yes, Boss.”

The man snorted. “Qi Changling was too impatient. However, Wen Renyi is actually quite a ruthless character. Keep a closer eye on both Wen Renyi and He Zhou.”

The subordinate received his orders and went off.

The man took his phone out and opened his address book, preparing to call He Feng when suddenly the image of He Feng’s miserable expression with knit brows flashed through his head. He paused for a second before snorting softly but in the end, he didn’t make the call.

Jing University.

He Zhou had just gotten out of the canteen with Ding Zhi when he received Wen Renyi’s call.

“I’ve found out that He Feng is involved with the Demonic Clan and the person he was with is their newly appointed head who’s known for being malicious and ruthless. He’s a difficult person to deal with.”

He Zhou hummed in understanding. “He won’t be making a move for now.”

Wen Renyi kept quiet for a few seconds. “His cultivation base is at Xiantian Middle Stage. You best be careful. Also, I need to mention one more matter.”

He Zhou continued to listen.

“The thugs that appeared in the public square as well as near the campus all went through the investigation by the operations teams and the Li Family and were determined to be taking some unknown drug that could temporarily raise your cultivation base for a short period. However, because the nature of it isn’t stable, many cultivators blindly take it, causing them to fall into qi deviation.”

“Where did the drug come from?”

“The source of the drug is still under investigation but we have ascertained that it isn’t local.” Wen Renyi paused for a moment. “I suspect that the external organization mentioned before is involved in this.”

He Zhou’s brain operated quickly. The external organization had been investigating the original owner 6 years prior with the intention of stealing the jewelry but Wen Renyi discovered their tracks so they set up a trap for Wen Renyi to fall into dire straits. If the case of the mad cultivators was related to the organization, then it was safe to say that they must have been cooking up a plan.

“Now that the necklace is in your hands, they probably must have caused this incident.” Wen Renyi was worried that something would happen to He Zhou.

People who were at Sky Rank Late Stage may seem strong in low level cultivator’s eyes but in Xian Tian cultivator’s eyes, they were just mere ants. Although He Zhou’s array was powerful, in terms of absolute power, arrays weren’t able to stack up much points.

“Ah Yi. Six years ago, that group secretly tried to kill you but they took away the necklace after I got into an accident and had already stopped all movement. But at that time in Feng Huang, you still faced another assassination attempt, who was trying to kill you?”

“Director, President Zhao is waiting for you at the parlor.” Guo Yan’s voice resounded over the call.

“Ah Zhou. We’ll talk about this when we’re at home.” Wen Renyi said before hanging up the call.

He Zhou placed his phone back into his pocket and saw Ding Zhi waiting for him not too far away. He was still mumbling words, reciting the names of the acupuncture points. The setting sun cast a long shadow of his figure and the big campus seemed quiet and peaceful.

The two people returned to the dorms and saw Ye Xiao and Qi Shen. Qi Shen was currently organizing his backpack so Ding Zhi jested. “Is the top student going back to the library again?”
