Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 3110: Chapter 100: If You Can, Then You Do It

...

”Ningxi, the reason I called you here today is that Fourth Brother sent a letter.”

After the small talk, Wang Shouye’s expression turned serious, and he took out an encrypted storage disk from his storage ring, handing it to Ningxi.

The contents mainly discussed some follow-up actions on the Southern Blaze Divine Continent and included the transfer of some supplies.

After carefully reading Shouzhe’s letter, Wang Ningxi also breathed a sigh of relief: ”Old Ancestor Grandfather’s actions on the Southern Blaze Divine Continent are very smooth, truly something to be celebrated.”

”This Thunderbolt Sacred Flame was specially acquired for you by your Old Ancestor Grandmother.” Wang Shouye took out a ball of sacred flame flickering with thunderous light, smiling as he handed it to him, ”Now, you don’t have to envy my Sacred Fire anymore.”

Good stuff.

Wang Ningxi’s eyes lit up, filled with joy as he put away the sacred flame, deciding to refine it well when he returned.

”You also heard Fourth Brother’s intentions; development is the hard truth. Strategies and plans are for Fourth Brother and the others to worry about. Our task is to handle the logistics in Luojing.” Wang Shouye’s expression turned serious again, ”Our war with the Demonic Clan is a prolonged one, ultimately testing comprehensive strength.”

”I understand, I will not disappoint Old Ancestor Grandfather’s expectations.” Wang Ningxi nodded, speaking with utmost seriousness.

Subsequently, the two further discussed and refined the upcoming strategies and actions.

It wasn’t until a couple of hours later that Wang Ningxi finally left.

However, just as Wang Ningxi left, on the other side, Dongfang Lingrou and Empress Luo Jia rushed into Wang Shouye’s study.

Though the two didn’t argue, everything they did seemed to provoke each other, creating an atmosphere like sharp needles against wheat awns, causing Wang Shouye a headache.

Sigh ~ When will such days come to an end ~

He just wanted to quietly refine some pills, is it really that difficult?

...

Half a month later.

Far outskirts of Luojing’s North City, Jishi Flourishing Workshop.

Ximen Yaoqing returned to the workshop, ready to pack his things from his locker, but just upon entering, he was caught on the spot by a ”middle-aged man” who looked well-fed and brain-filled.

”You lazy fool! How dare you come back? One month! A whole month, no response to messages or communications, do you still acknowledge the workshop and me, your manager? Or do you just want to quit?!”

The mood of the ”middle-aged man” was clearly not good, blasting him with spittle spraying everywhere.

The furious roar immediately drew in many colleagues for distant observation.

Some clearly knew the inside story, their eyes filled with schadenfreude, but many who usually got along well with Ximen Yaoqing looked at him with concern.

”Manager Hou, I just needed to clear my mind with a walk. I admit it was wrong to leave without notice.” Ximen Yaoqing held back his emotions, striving to keep his tone calm, ”But this time I returned to resign and to retrieve my personal items from the locker.”

”You... resign?”

The middle-aged Manager Hou was momentarily stunned.

Clearly, Ximen Yaoqing’s reaction was completely unexpected to him.

He sized up Ximen Yaoqing, then sneered with disdain: ”You sure have guts. Fine, resign if you want. I would like to see which workshop in this vast Luojing City dares to take you.”

The Ancient Divine Tribe Ji Family is not to be trifled with, even if a branch family raises this name, others would inevitably retreat a few steps; banning a small artifact refiner is too easy.

Ximen Yaoqing didn’t want to waste words with him, calmly stating: ”That’s none of Manager Hou’s concern. Prosperous Workshop still owes me half a year’s wages totaling fifty spirit stones, please settle the account for me.”

”Wages? You dare ask for wages?” Manager Hou screamed as if his tail was stepped on, ”Due to your disappearance, the workshop lost at least over a thousand spirit stones, not making you compensate is already lenient enough. Get out, get out right now.”

”You’re denying me my wages?” Eyes ablaze, Ximen Yaoqing managed to suppress his anger, speaking coldly, ”Aren’t you afraid I’ll file a complaint?”

”Go ahead~ if you have the guts, file it.” Manager Hou’s tone was mocking, ”You’ll finally understand what name reigns over Luojing’s sky.”

Ximen Yaoqing’s face changed expressions for a while, ultimately deciding to swallow his pride. As long as he does well at Dongxia Military Work in the future, this loss won’t matter.

But just as he turned away, ready to leave Prosperous Workshop quietly, Manager Hou’s mocking voice suddenly came from behind: ”Truly a loser. Even when your girlfriend gets snatched away, you don’t even dare make a sound, useless dog.”

”What did you say?”

With eyes red, Ximen Yaoqing turned back, charging forward like an enraged bull.

Although Manager Hou was also a Tianren Realm Cultivator, his physique clearly showed a patchy and lazy cultivation, with average combat power. Ximen Yaoqing, enraged, didn’t give him any time to react.

In almost the blink of an eye, Ximen Yaoqing successfully subdued Manager Hou, fiercely raining punches upon his head.

”Ximen Yaoqing, have you gone mad?!”

”Mad, utterly mad~ Ximen Yaoqing, stop at once!”

The onlooking colleagues, not expecting things to escalate so far, changed their expressions drastically, exclaiming in shock.

A few even rushed up, trying to pull the two apart, only to be fiercely flung away by Ximen Yaoqing.
