"You failed the mission?! Don’t give this bullshit! I paid millions so you could do your damn job! I demand a full refund!" Yu Yong shouted at his phone after receiving the news of their failure.
"Unfortunately, we have a no refund policy, and you have agreed to this term before hiring us. If you want us to try again, we can do so at a discounted price, but your family will be at risk of getting investigated. If you accept this risk, we will go back and get ixiu one more ti after receiving more paynt."
"ixiu was stronger than any of us could have anticipated, so we will need more resources to take her back. I hope you understand."
Yu Yong didn’t imdiately respond. Although he didn’t mind an investigation since he has plenty of lawyers and friends with power, it wouldn’t look good for his company if news spread that he’d hired rchants to kidnap a girl.
However, as long as the news didn’t spread, everything would be fine, and he had plenty of resources available to keep that from happening.
"How much?" Yu Yong asked after a mont of silence.
"10 million." Mister Johnson quickly responded.
"T-Ten million?! That’s more than double what I paid you last ti! And you consider that as a discount?! This is clearly a scam!" Yu Yong exclaid.
"Yes, it’s the discounted price. If not for the discount, I would have asked for 15 million. Since four cultivators between the 7th and 8th level weren’t enough to bring ixiu back, we will have to increase our forces. I intend on bringing experts from around the world this ti, so it will cost much more than usual."
Yu Yong coldly sneered, "Using this many resources just to bring back a little girl. Aren’t you ashad of yourselves?"
After a mont of silence, Mister Johnson said, "With all due respect, if you think you have what it takes to make her return, go ahead. I will send you their location in a mont since we were paid to do so."
"If you want to continue working with us, send the money by next week. If not, then this is the end of our cooperation. Once again, I apologize for the inconveniences."
Yu Yong hung up the phone after that and tossed it at the wall.
"A bunch of useless bastards!"
Seeing his reaction, Tang Lee said, "At least we have their location. We can have Yu Rou try to convince ixiu to return."
Yu Yong looked at her with a pondering look, "Why didn’t we think of that sooner? We could’ve saved millions! If it’s Yu Rou, I’m sure that she’ll convince ixiu to return! Call her here!"
An hour later, Yu Rou arrived at their main location after being summoned by her parents.
"Yu Rou, we have a job for you." Yu Yong said to her with a solemn look on his face.
"..."
Yu Rou could already guess what they wanted from her, but she acted ignorantly and asked, "What is it, father?"
Yu Yong then handed her a piece of paper and said, "ixiu is living here right now, and I want you to convince her to co back."
Yu Rou then said, "Why do you want ixiu back? She left on her own accord, so I don’t think she will return even if I ask her."
"That isn’t for you to worry about." Tang Lee said, and she continued, "Just bring ixiu back at all cost."
Yu Yong then added, "If you successfully bring ixiu back, I can consider lifting your restriction and allow you to et with Yu Tian again. After all, he’s with ixiu right now."
"Really?!" Yu Rou expressed excitent after hearing this.
"Then I will go see ixiu tomorrow!"
Yu Yong laughed inwardly seeing how easy it was convincing Yu Rou to help them.
Soti later, Yu Rou returned ho.
’Since they’re asking for help, this must an that the people they hired to bring ixiu back have failed...’
Yu Rou had no problem agreeing to help her parents. After all, she was only told to convince ixiu to return, and she gets to see her brother again in the process.
’I can’t wait to see ixiu and brother again tomorrow after so long...’ Yu Rou went to sleep early on that day, as she wanted the day to be over as quickly as possible.
anwhile, after his shower, Yuan moved all of the furniture in the living room to the wall, freeing up a lot of space in the center of the room.
"What are you doing, Young Master?" ifeng asked him.
"I want to practice sothing," he said.
After taking a deep breath, Yuan began moving his legs in an odd but rhythmic manner.
"Hmm? That’s..." ixiu quickly recognized what Yuan was trying to do.
"Ah!"
Yuan tripped on himself a couple of seconds into his weird movents.
"I don’t understand..." ifeng shook her head.
"It’s a movent technique," he said.
"Huh?"
"A movent technique I learned in Cultivation Online. I want to try practicing it in the real world as well."
Indeed, Yuan was trying to learn the movent technique Vermilion Phoenix Dominating the Heavens. Since he could use Flying Daggers, it obviously ant that he could learn other techniques as well.
And what better technique than a movent technique that will help him improve his overall movent?
"A movent technique? Good luck, Young Master. There are a lot of people trying to do the sa." ifeng mumbled in a low voice.
"Eh?" Yuan raised his eyebrows.
ifeng then said, "Since we can use cultivation techniques from Cultivation Online, it only makes sense that other techniques could also be learned. Although nobody has managed to do so yet, there are plenty of people out there trying to beco the first person to learn a technique that’s not a cultivation technique."
"Is that so..."
"Of course, there’s a good chance that soone out there has already succeeded but decided to keep it a secret."
"Most likely," Yuan said with a smile on his face.
