The scene of the battle in the parking lot was magnified.
Kim Tae-hyung stared intently, "Eliminate all impossible scenarios, and when only one remains, no matter how unbelievable, it is the truth!"
The truth was that within a certain range around Qin Ye Xuan, all spiritual energy and special abilities would disappear, which was why he was able to use weapons from the old era to instantly eliminate so many high-level cultivators.
"Let's look at the second battle again, the slaughter from Kim Ki-ho's floor. Eliminating other causes, this is the miracle that turned all cultivators into mortals!"
The three mysterious figures immediately thought of the explosion incident last night.
"A grandmaster like Song Ki-won actually died in the flames of an old-era bomb. It seems that as Mr. Tae-hyung said, Qin Ye Xuan's ability makes everyone equal."
"So, if this is the truth, how does Mr. Kim Tae-hyung intend to change the plan?"
Kim Tae-hyung smiled, "The gathering of the three major sects of Qinglong Temple should be arranged within a narrow pavilion, and then let Qin Ye Xuan use his ability to turn all those great Zen masters into mortals. At this time, we only need to set a bomb in advance and watch the beautiful outcome from afar."
The three mysterious figures were startled and stepped out from behind the screen, "Is this really feasible? You know, at the gathering, there will be at least five hundred experts from the three major sects, almost all the middle and high-level members!"
"Haha, that's the best part!"
Kim Tae-hyung waved his hand, motioning them to sit down, and leisurely poured three cups of tea, "If I remember correctly, we have been cooperating for ten years, haven't we?"
"Yes, ever since we left the sect in Jin Yuan City and entrusted all matters to you, we have been cooperating." The three mysterious figures nodded.
"And in these ten years, you have climbed from the lowest-level disciples to the middle management!"
The three mysterious figures wore masks, so their expressions could not be seen, but their voices were filled with gratitude, "Without Mr. Tae-hyung's help, we wouldn't have reached this point."
Kim Tae-hyung nodded slightly and suddenly changed the topic, "Do you know what else happened last night besides the explosion?"
The three shook their heads.
"Do you know about the Qixing Society?" Kim Tae-hyung showed a playful smile.
"Of course we know. In the old era, they were the largest syndicate in Goryeo, controlling all underground forces from Hanseong to Busan. After the arrival of the new era, the Qixing Society suffered a great blow and is currently holed up in the core area near Baichu-dong, Hanseong."
Kim Tae-hyung chuckled, "Then do you know who the boss of the Qixing Society is today?"
The three mysterious figures were surprised, "Isn't it still Park Won-jae?"
"The new leader's name is Ryu Won-tae. He took power overnight. Just last night, he was still a car wash attendant for the Qixing Society."
The three mysterious figures tried hard to recall, but they had indeed never heard of this Ryu Won-tae.
Kim Tae-hyung drank his tea, "Ryu Won-tae came from a thug background. Because he had some cultivation, he was assigned to Puyang as the executive representative, but he was still just a subordinate. But last night, no one in the entire Qixing Society could oppose him. Do you know why?"
The three shook their heads.
Kim Tae-hyung sighed, "It's like the famous saying from Great Xia: When the tiger is away, the monkey becomes king. All the middle and high-level members of the Qixing Society were turned to ashes in the explosion. Ryu Won-tae gathered his twelve subordinates at dawn, the highest cultivation among them being intermediate, and so easily took the position of leader."
The three mysterious figures were still in a daze when Kim Tae-hyung suddenly slammed his cup, "Damn it, are you even worse than a mere thug? Ryu Won-tae knows how to seize opportunities. If all the middle and high-level members of the three major sects in Qinglong Temple die, what should you do?"
The three clenched their fists excitedly, "We understand."
However, they thought of the most crucial point, "This Mr. Qin from Great Xia seems to be a friend of Jin Yuan City and is here to help Kim Go-hee. How can we persuade him to participate in our plan?"
"Bribery!" Kim Tae-hyung replied calmly.
This...
"This person doesn't seem like the type that can be bribed. Otherwise, Kim Jun-soo and Kim Woo-bin wouldn't have been played by him."
Kim Tae-hyung smiled again, "I've always believed in one thing: there is no one in this world who cannot be bought, it's just a matter of price. Qin Ye Xuan is difficult to invite, but there must be a price that can move him."
"As long as we can offer him that price, he will agree."
As they were talking in secret, there was a knock on the door outside.
Kim Tae-hyung pressed a red button, "What is it?"
"President, that guy from Great Xia is wandering around the company. Judging by his trajectory, he seems to be heading for our floor."
Kim Tae-hyung's eyebrows shot up, "Open everything along the way. No one is allowed to obstruct him."
Turning around, Kim Tae-hyung looked excitedly at his three partners, "Sometimes things are so wonderful it's unbelievable. Qin Ye Xuan is coming to us himself. He will make a demand, and we will have the upper hand in this transaction."
"You can leave now, and wait for my news!"
The three left quietly.
At this time, Qin Ye Xuan had not yet entered the elevator. He was waiting for intelligence from Assistant En.
Kim Tae-hyung's location changed floors every day. To meet him directly, one first had to know which floor he was on at the moment.
Assistant En appeared from the staircase, her eyes terrifyingly sharp, followed by a smiling Buddha Lotus.
Seeing Assistant En's furious expression, Qin Ye Xuan knew something was wrong.
"You scoundrel, pervert, trash!" Assistant En trembled with anger and suddenly pulled out a shotgun from behind her.
It was a sawed-off short-barreled shotgun, capable of blowing a person into a pulp at close range.
"You're not a cultivator. At this close range, I can kill you with one shot. Don't think that I and the representative are easy to bully. I don't know your abilities, but you always rely on old-era weapons!"
Assistant En said all this in one breath, her eyes turning red, "Do you know how I've endured these past few days to protect Go-hee? We trusted you so much..."
Qin Ye Xuan interrupted her, "Today, it's today!"
"What?" Assistant En trembled, holding the gun, "What did you say? What happened today?"
"After today, the Kim Se Group will be returned to Kim Go-hee in its entirety. Kim Woo-bin will die, Kim Jun-soo will die, and Kim Tae-hyung will voluntarily withdraw. This is my apology, and it is what I give to you."
"That's hilarious. Do you think we're fools?" Assistant En was stunned, but she hesitantly lowered the gun.
Buddha Lotus behind her frowned, "Although this person is shameless and lecherous, and likes to torment and control people, he rarely lies."
Assistant En stared at Qin Ye Xuan for a long time, then put away the gun, "The representative just gave me an order. She said that last night's incident was not entirely your fault, and she also had a willing part..."
Assistant En's face was ugly as she said this, "So the representative demands that if she can get back half of the company's resources, she can forgive you."
Qin Ye Xuan shrugged, "Then please give me the intelligence."
"The fifty-ninth floor. The spy on Kim Tae-hyung's side just sent word that he has opened up all defenses along the way, as if he's waiting for you to come up."
Qin Ye Xuan smiled, "It seems my judgment of Kim Tae-hyung was correct. He wants to use enough chips to make a deal."
The elevator door opened, taking Qin Ye Xuan to the fifty-ninth floor.
