Liu Zixuan had just pressed the answer button on his phone but hadn't spoken yet when a deafening noise assaulted his eardrum!
"Liu Zixuan, are you freaking ssing with !"
"You're still my son-in-law, right? What's this, not satisfied with taking my daughter, now you want to ruin my century-old family wealth?"
"Damn you, you better explain it to today, are you deliberately trying to get back at !"
Liu Zixuan rubbed his ear, trying to keep so distance from the phone.
Seeing that the other side had stopped, he imdiately cursed, "Zhou Fengzi, did you skip your ds today, or is your nopause acting up again? What did I do to provoke you?"
"You asking what you did to provoke ? I'm asking, was it you who recomnded Zhao Yi to co here!" Zhou Fengzi asked irritably.
"Yeah, it was!"
Liu Zixuan suddenly rembered sothing; could it be that Zhao Yi scared Zhou Fengzi with just one al?
"Good that you admit it! Do you know he ate three als' worth of food in one sitting!"
Liu Zixuan smirked, "Why don't you ntion that he did the work of three people over there? And you don't even have to pay wages! What's the point in complaining?"
"I... " Zhou Fengzi was montarily speechless and then cursed, "I don't care, get him out of here, I can't afford to keep him!"
"It's not your call!" Liu Zixuan thought to himself, chuckling, Zhao Yi went to you with a different mission I assigned him. You think you can just send him away?"
What kind of person do you take my brother for!
"I don't have the final say? I'm giving you a heads up by calling, do you believe I can fire him right now!" Zhou Fengzi exclaid angrily.
"Go ahead, you can fire him just by opening your mouth and waving your hand!" Liu Zixuan chuckled mockingly.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Fengzi imdiately fell silent.
That's odd, with Liu Zixuan's personality, he should be arguing back, why is he letting fire Zhao Yi? That's not like him!
Frowning, he asked, "Are you up to sothing again?"
"No bad intentions, I see you struggling every day, so I introduced an employee who doesn't require a salary for you, isn't that good?" Liu Zixuan laughed.
Zhou Fengzi suspiciously uttered, "Are you really that considerate for ?"
"You think I'm lying to you?"
"You freaking haven't scamd enough? Even my daughter has been snatched by you," Zhou Fengzi cursed.
"No need to sound so harsh, my feelings with the big-chested sweetheart are mutual. Besides, didn't you also keep saying you want to hold a grandchild soon? Instead of letting her find another man, better to choose , look at how charming I am, right?"
"Wait, don't change the subject!" Zhou Fengzi said unhappily, "I'm asking seriously, why did you send Zhao Yi to ? Don't gim that 'free employee' talk! I don't buy it!"
"You're not dumb, are you!" Liu Zixuan muttered instinctively.
"Damn you!" Zhou Fengzi got furious imdiately.
"Hey, don't be mad. I sent Zhao Yi mainly to help you out, with a bit of personal interest on the side!" Liu Zixuan laughed.
"What personal interest?"
"He's a promising talent, sure to achieve great things in the future, and his temperant completely matches the sword manual we found at the Seven-Star Tomb. On your side, he could get in touch with the manual's owner. What if he gets so guidance!" Liu Zixuan laughed mockingly.
"Do you take for a fool? What can a dead person guide him on?" Zhou Fengzi asked.
"I'm just saying what if. Uncle Zhou, seriously, I always felt that the tomb owner was extraordinary, especially after you got sick recently, I checked his corpse, and I have the feeling he was quite the character when alive!"
"If Zhao Yi manages to gain so insight or inheritance from him, it's not a bad idea for to give him the sword manual later. I'm doing it for your benefit too!"
"You raising a capable person for my good benefit? Isn't that absurd?" Zhou Fengzi was truly enraged, feeling like Liu Zixuan was playing him!
Liu Zixuan hurriedly explained, "Uncle Zhou, let's not play mind gas anymore. It's already the second day, and you haven't put the corpse back in the tomb; don't you have the slightest personal interest? Don't you want to learn more about that tomb owner?"
"I..."
"Here's an opportunity for you. When you study the tomb owner, take Zhao Yi along. If he gains any insights, great, if not, it doesn't affect you. Of course, you can fire him anyti now." Liu Zixuan said calmly.
"Do you think I really don't dare to fire him?" Zhou Fengzi asked in a low tone.
"You're a big deal; with the treasures in that secret room, you could even run for the richest person in Ghost Wood City. Of course, I believe in your capability." Liu Zixuan deliberately paused, then laughed, "Uncle Zhou, if you don't do this favor for , then I won't do it for you either!"
"What did you do for ?"
"Don't forget, the Willow Association Token is with . If I tell Aunt Ying it was you who took the token from her, you should know the consequences of taking the sacred item from the Willow Association!"
Zhou Fengzi's mouth twitched vigorously, "Waiting for at this point? Threatening , aren't you!"
"Just consider it a small trade!" Liu Zixuan didn't deny it! He was indeed threatening Zhou Fengzi!
"Fine, I admit defeat this ti. That guy can stay, but I'm telling you, if he doesn't gain so insights and I don't discover anything special, I'll send the tomb owner back as soon as possible!" Zhou Fengzi said seriously.
Liu Zixuan knew that although Zhou Fengzi was greedy, he wasn't stupid. After what almost cost him his life, he surely learned his lesson, but because of the tomb owner's mystery, his curiosity was piqued, and he had to thoroughly explore it! Otherwise, the tomb owner would have been returned long ago.
And Liu Zixuan's move was also a gamble, betting that Zhao Yi could learn sothing from the tomb owner—not necessarily an inheritance, but at least so insights. Only then could he confidently pass on the sword manual to Zhao Yi!
As for inheritances and the like being too ethereal, Liu Zixuan entertained that notion rely as an impromptu thought.
Of course, placing Zhao Yi with Zhou Fengzi wasn't solely for that reason, but also for Zhou Fengzi's skills!
To be precise, Liu Zixuan sent Zhao Yi over to find Zhou Fengzi a disciple!
That beauty master said before, there are seven Seven-Star Tombs, and they've only located two. With Zhou Fengzi's skill in finding tombs, if obtained, Liu Zixuan would have much less to worry about in the future!
