Chapter 280 The Soul Sprite Slipped Away

"Bitch, you dare to hit me!"

Cai Jinqu cursed, and a nameless anger surged within him. He felt his body heating up, losing control, and he couldn't tolerate being slapped like this.

Liu Sandao saw the black energy on him suddenly surge, and his face twisted slightly.

Mortals could not see this change; it was the precursor to the soul's awakening, like the leading wave before a flood, in a state of alert.

Seeing Cai Jinqu reach out to grab Zuo Ruxiu, Liu Sandao darted forward and restrained his arm.

He was on the verge of losing his mind.

"President Cai, President Cai, let's talk things out. No need for violence!"

Anyone else might have said this, but Liu Sandao couldn't. He was naturally not good at expressing himself.

It was Xu Dachuan who spoke up as he blocked Cai Jinqu.

When Xu Dachuan heard about the argument between Cai Jinqu and Zuo Ruxiu, he rushed over to mediate.

Cai Rong had not been in the office for several days.

"Did I strike first? Didn't you see she hit me first!"

Cai Jinqu said angrily.

The black energy on his back was gathering, accumulating more and more.

Liu Sandao had to silently use his techniques to clear away the excess black energy from behind him, like sweeping fallen leaves with a broom.

But the more he swept, the more there was, like autumn leaves; as soon as he finished sweeping, they would fall again. Although not many, they would appear right after he had swept.

"Who dares to disrupt this master's good deed?"

A voice came, and Liu Sandao saw a mass of black shadow appear in the air.

A pitch-black face emerged from the center, covered in black hair. Although it had a humanoid form, its face was indistinguishable. In mortal terms, it looked like a black ape.

When Liu Sandao saw it, it also looked at Liu Sandao.

"Kid, I advise you not to meddle in other people's business, or don't blame me for being impolite!"

"Oh, how will you be impolite?"

Liu Sandao was not flustered. He knew this was the soul of the wedge embedded in Cai Jinqu's back.

If he could capture it, the wedge would be resolved, and it would no longer be lodged in Cai Jinqu.

"It seems you won't know the immensity of heaven and earth until you suffer a bit!"

The black shadow said, and shot out a beam of black light.

Even an immortal would likely be torn to shreds if struck by that black light.

It was the magic power refined and trained by the 'Taming Plate,' possessing natural corrosive properties. For mortals, it could instantly turn them into pus.

In the eyes of the soul, Liu Sandao was merely a mortal with a little Taoist skill, not worth worrying about.

Little did it know that Liu Sandao had already protected the entire room with a formation to prevent harm to innocent bystanders.

Seeing that its attack had missed, the soul immediately increased its magic power and launched an attack on Liu Sandao's body.

Seizing this momentum, Liu Sandao moved at lightning speed, dodging the attacks and luring it elsewhere.

As the soul pursued him closely, Liu Sandao waved his right hand, and a net appeared behind him.

At first glance, it looked like a wisp of water swaying in the wind. If you followed its trajectory, it would open up like a mouth.

It was made of water, formed into a net through the 'Ruo Shui Fu' secret technique. As long as the soul entered, it could not escape.

He thought that since the soul was chasing so closely, it wouldn't have time to see, and capturing it would be effortless.

Unexpectedly, the soul was quick-witted. As Liu Sandao cast the net, it transformed into a gust of black wind and fled.

Liu Sandao, fearing it wasn't fleeing but returning to control Cai Jinqu, flew back to the Wuma Building at high speed.

By now, the office had returned to its usual calm.

Liu Sandao pretended to be cleaning and quietly approached the company's front desk, wanting to ask Bai Suxiang what had just happened.

Why was the company so quiet, and everyone had returned to their workstations.

But before he could speak, Ah Li began, "I didn't expect the big boss to come. Do you think he knows that the young President Cai was causing trouble, hence his arrival?"

"How would I know? Just do your job and don't worry about other things!"

Bai Suxiang said while typing on her computer.

"Oh, you, always working, working, aren't you tired? I'm just telling you something to pass the time, why are you so serious? Are you getting a promotion and raise?"

Ah Li complained.

Bai Suxiang had joined the company later than Ah Li, but she was now the "secretary" to the personal secretary. Zuo Ruxiu gave her many tasks every day, not just front desk duties, but also tasks that were passed on to Bai Suxiang.

She truly couldn't understand how Bai Suxiang could be so hardworking and never refuse a task.

Bai Suxiang's position hadn't changed, but it seemed her salary had indeed increased a little. Zuo Ruxiu had told her this herself, and it should be confirmed.

"You say this young President Cai keeps causing trouble, it's not a solution. We can't always have someone cleaning up his mess."

Seeing that Bai Suxiang didn't respond, Ah Li brought up another topic.

In any ordinary company, if something like this happened, the young President Cai would definitely not be able to stay.

Moreover, given his character, if he wasn't the heir of Wuma Group, it felt like no company would hire him.

Bai Suxiang remained non-committal, her lips twitching meaninglessly.

It seemed to affirm Ah Li's statement without wanting to dampen her enthusiasm.

After all, it was Ah Li's gossip that allowed Bai Suxiang to learn more about things. Sudan Novel Network.

"Oh, that cleaning brother is quite capable. I didn't expect such a slender person to be able to hold back the young President Cai."

Ah Li's mind changed too quickly, and Liu Sandao didn't react. How did the conversation suddenly turn to him?

"Hahaha!"

Bai Suxiang also found it amusing. How did it suddenly involve Liu Sandao?

Coincidentally, Liu Sandao was only five or six steps away from the front desk.

"Ask him, see what he says!"

Bai Suxiang said, subtly gesturing towards Liu Sandao with her peripheral vision.

Ah Li turned her head and looked towards the office. She saw Liu Sandao. Unexpectedly, Liu Sandao happened to turn his head and look at her. The situation was a bit awkward. Ah Li gave a wry smile, widened her eyes, and her tongue involuntarily flicked out.

Liu Sandao quickly lowered his head. He was not good at interacting with girls.

In the time he had been at the company, apart from speaking to Bai Suxiang, he hadn't spoken much to anyone else, not even when they ordered him to handle the trash around them.

"Sigh, you say this person is strange!"

Although Ah Li had dispelled the awkwardness, she was still curious about Liu Sandao and whispered to Bai Suxiang.

"Ah? How is he strange?"

Bai Suxiang asked, feigning surprise.

Whether Liu Sandao was strange or not was debatable.

It was just that his way of dealing with the world was out of sync with this world, as Bai Suxiang had always understood it.
