The motives of these people are anything but simple. Tang Rao's real plan is to first teach a lesson to the people behind the scenes, then co back and deal with these cultivators.
Haoran Group, on the top floor a man was enjoying beauties and red wine.
Beauty in his arms, red wine in his hand, the man very soon couldn't hold it in.
"President Li, this is the company. Us doing this here… isn't it kind of inappropriate?"
The woman's luscious lips left marks on the man's face. Her mouth said it might not be good, but her body was already doing the most honest thing.
"What's 'not good' about it? In a little while, not just this company, even Dynasty Industry will be in my pocket. By then, I'll be the one ruling this whole city. Those people will only see my power. As for what I do—who's gonna have the right to管 ?"
Li Haoran was teasing the woman until she was completely comfortable, and didn't notice that on the window of the high-rise, a man was stuck to the floor‑to‑ceiling glass like Spiderman. His four limbs seed to have suction cups, and with no safety gear at all, he actually wasn't falling.
"President Li, you're amazing, Wen Wen really admires Pres…i…dent… Ah—ghost!"
The woman who called herself Wen Wen had originally wanted to say a few more flattering words to make Li Haoran happy, but when her eyes happened to look forward, she just caught sight of that suction‑cup‑like person on the glass.
It was quite a spring‑palace scene. Even Tang Rao was blushing as he watched. Several tis he wanted to interrupt the performance inside, but he was worried the man's capabilities in that regard would be affected if he got interrupted, so he just held back and kept watching.
He thought his good intentions would earn him so gratitude from heaven, but he never expected that once the woman saw him, her face would go pale with fright.
The man was even more dramatic than the woman. When he saw a person on the glass, he instinctively shoved the woman away, pulled a gun out of the desk drawer, aid at the glass, and fired a shot.
The glass now had a hole in it but didn't shatter. He thought Tang Rao was just putting on so spooky act. In his mind, soone like that could never outrun a bullet.
Just as he was rejoicing, he turned to look at Tang Rao again—only to find there was no one there.
"Looking for ?"
Nobody knew when Tang Rao had already appeared inside the office.
He hadn't crashed through the window, and he hadn't co in through the door.
Like a ghost, Tang Rao's whole body radiated a mysterious aura.
"Who the hell are you? Are you human or a ghost?"
Li Haoran was scared out of his wits.
No—actually, no matter who you swapped in, anyone running into this kind of thing would be scared out of their wits.
Tang Rao didn't mind. After all, he was soone who'd seen the world; he'd seen plenty of cowards like this.
"Of course I'm human. You've hired so many cultivators to keep around you, and you an you don't know cultivators can do stuff like this?"
Tang Rao was implying from the side that he was a cultivator. Li Haoran reacted to that at once.
"That's right, I do have a lot of cultivators around . So what? What's that got to do with you?"
Li Haoran's hiring of cultivators was no secret. People like him who spend money to buy themselves safety are very common these days.
"If you trace it out, it has a lot to do with . I heard you've got your eye on Dynasty Industry lately?"
Tang Rao didn't bother with beating around the bush and just spat out the words "Dynasty Industry" directly.
"That's right, Dynasty Industry will very soon be in my pocket. Don't tell you're here because of Dynasty Industry and want to cooperate with ?"
The heart that had been hanging high in Li Haoran's chest suddenly settled down.
These last few days, quite a few cultivators had heard that Dynasty Industry was going to fall into Li Haoran's hands, and were all lining up to cling to his thigh, asking if he needed more people around him.
"No. The chairman of Dynasty Industry is my dad. I'm here to seek justice for my dad."
His smile made him look like a harmless big kid.
The chairman of Dynasty Industry's son?
That identity really did exceed Li Haoran's expectations.
"So you're the young master of Dynasty Industry's chairman. Too bad your dad is a weakling with no ability. In just a few short years he ruined Dynasty Industry. Even I feel it's a pity when I look at it."
Li Haoran took out a cigar, lit it, and took a satisfied drag.
"Very soon, Dynasty Industry will announce bankruptcy. Then the court will seize your company and schedule it for auction. And if there's one thing I, Li Haoran, am not short of, it's money. Buying Dynasty Industry is nothing to . Tell , if Dynasty Industry gets folded into my Haoran Group, will it cause a big sensation or not?"
Li Haoran was almost completely lost in his boundless fantasies and couldn't pull himself out. The only thing that could snap him back to reality, aside from violence, really did seem to be nothing else.
After a round of "doesn't hurt the bones" beating, Tang Rao finally cald the hot‑blooded Li Haoran down.
"Go on, how do you want to punish you?"
Tang Rao had always been a very democratic person. He'd give Li Haoran many options—just that none of the options he offered would be very pleasant.
After doing so many bad things, how could soone like this be let off easily?
"Hahahaha, you think this is enough to make give up on Dynasty Industry? I'll tell you the truth: it's not just my Haoran Group going after Dynasty Industry. Coming after Haoran Group is useless. Even if you take out, can you guarantee you'll take out the rest of them?"
Li Haoran was fearless. He had always felt that if he couldn't get sothing, no one else could either. Tang Rao coming to him was useless. Li Haoran at best was just a laborer. Getting Dynasty Industry didn't an getting everything. The reason he publicly claid that Dynasty Industry might fall into his hands was only because Li Haoran, this "tree," could block the wind. But once this tree could no longer shield from the wind, the people using this tree would just replace it and go looking for another one.
Li Haoran's words were exactly what Tang Rao had expected, and matched the analysis Tang Renwang had given him. But since Tang Rao had chosen to co to Li Haoran first, it obviously wasn't solely to save Dynasty Industry. It was to give Li Haoran a lesson, to ring an alarm bell for him so he wouldn't keep thinking he was the sky itself.
"That's fine by . I'll start with you, then go find the people behind you one by one. Relax—everyone who took part in this won't end well. You're just the opening act for them."
When he finished speaking, Li Haoran took a few more punches from Tang Rao.
Blue Star ultimately isn't the Divine Realm. Before the rules on Blue Star are completely disrupted, he still can't just kill people at will. Leaving Li Haoran alive might co in handy later.
The story of Li Haoran getting beaten up by a cultivator who called himself the son of Tang Renwang spread very quickly to every corner. So people clapped their hands in delight, so were thrown into a panic, afraid Tang Rao would show up at their door next and they wouldn't know how to face him when the ti ca.
