Chapter 799 - 800: Killing You Would Dirty My Hands

Watching the senior management team leave the conference room one by one, Meng Yu smiled as she approached Liu Zixuan, giving him a thumbs up in admiration.

"Calm and orderly, you disciplined those at fault with swift measures, warning others, all while using the festival as an excuse to distribute bonuses and win over hearts. As a president, you’re the most perfect!"

Liu Zixuan flicked his cigarette ash and boasted, "If you admire me so much, how about we head over to your place tonight!"

"You’re incorrigible!"

Meng Yu rolled her eyes at Liu Zixuan, "What are you planning next?"

"The company is mainly in order now, but the Gu Family and Wei Family issues aren’t resolved yet," Liu Zixuan said with a meaningful smile.

"Didn’t you already get nearly a hundred billion yuan in assets from them?" Meng Yu frowned and asked, "What else do you need to do?"

"The hundred billion is just what they owe me, but I haven’t collected interest yet," Liu Zixuan shrugged. "Besides, with the martial arts tournament approaching, it’s time to make my stance clear."

"What stance?" Meng Yu asked, puzzled.

"To show that I’m not someone who can be easily pushed around."

Liu Zixuan slowly stood up, took Meng Yu’s delicate hand, and walked toward the outside, saying as they went, "Those people from the Eight Great Powers and Four Great Clans have always thought that luck and the Willow Association’s help got me this far. I should seize the chance to show them that if they truly see me just as a favored lucky kid, they will pay a heavy price."

"This time, with Gu Chengkun and Wei Linming falling into my hands, it’s the perfect opportunity! Not only can I make them suffer some losses, but also warn them, achieving the effect of killing one to warn a hundred!"

Meng Yu’s lips twitched. She knew Liu Zixuan too well; even though he spoke casually, he was already harboring deadly intent!

Liu Zixuan was ready to strike!

As they reached the first floor of the group, they happened to meet the logistics supervisor tidying the lobby. Liu Zixuan immediately said, "Supervisor Fan, while we’re not on holiday yet, go with your team and remodel the office of the executive CEO on the top floor. What’s with turning a good office into an entertainment space?"

"Mr. Liu, how should we remodel it?" Supervisor Fan stepped forward and asked.

"Keep it simple. Don’t put in those flashy things. If Jiang Yiyi sees the group in such chaos, she might just fight me for it," Liu Zixuan muttered with some annoyance before leaving with Meng Yu.

Supervisor Fan scratched his head in confusion, "So even the mighty Mr. Liu has someone he’s afraid of."

In his view, it seemed like fear, but if Jiang Yiyi or any of the other ladies around Liu Zixuan heard it, they would undoubtedly feel a strong sense of happiness.

For men, there’s nothing to fear.

Toward their own women, there’s only doting, not fear—a true man can singlehandedly subdue a woman, where’s the fear in that?

Leaving Xiumei Group, Liu Zixuan called Liu Ruyan, Zhu Yi, and others, inviting them to eat at the City Center Restaurant. He and Meng Yu headed there first.

...

City Center Restaurant, still in that private room.

Gu Chengkun and Wei Linming sat in their chairs like they were on pins and needles. Their phones were broken, they even thought of bribing the waiter, but to no avail, they were undoubtedly cut off from the outside world.

Wei Linming softly asked, "Brother Kun, you’re more experienced and usually have more ideas. Quickly, think of what we should do now?"

Gu Chengkun forced a smile, "If I knew what to do, I wouldn’t have brought you here to sit with me."

"Are we really going to be ruined by Liu Zixuan? Not only did we fail to destroy his Xiumei Group, but we also doubled its market value, effectively failing our family tasks. Even if we return, we can’t explain this." Wei Linming, though young, was a business genius. But now they weren’t facing a businessman, rather Liu Zixuan, who never followed the conventional rules.

In Wei Linming’s eyes, Liu Zixuan was once just a martial artist. Only upon interaction did he slowly discover Liu Zixuan’s terrifying nature.

Thinking about it, the information they’d acquired prior was completely wrong. Liu Zixuan didn’t rely on luck or the Willow Association to get this far.

Regarding Ghost Wood City alone, unless multiple family forces joined forces, they couldn’t defeat Liu Zixuan here at all.

Liu Zixuan’s terror instilled in Wei Linming an unprecedented sense of fear!

"Pardon the wait, Mr. Gu and Young Master Wei."

Liu Zixuan walked in with a pleasant smile. This time, he was accompanied by Zhu Yi, while Meng Yu had already joined Liu Ruyan and the others in another room, waiting.

As Zhu Yi came in, Liu Zixuan generously introduced, "Brother Zhu, these two are no simple figures. The older gentleman is a representative of the Gu Family in the business world, and the young one is a young master from the Wei Family, one of the Four Great Clans in the Star Sea Martial Realm. So young, yet he’s already helped his family create their own business empire!"

Zhu Yi nodded in agreement, "The two of you are truly impressive!"

The pair exchanged words which, on the surface, seemed to praise Gu Chengkun and Wei Linming. But they both realized it was the most sarcastic remark.

So competent in the business world, yet weren’t they easily dealt with by Liu Zixuan?

Gu Chengkun’s lips twitched slightly as he approached Liu Zixuan, "Brother Xuan, let’s not discuss business; family-wise, we all are people from the Martial Realm, all children of Jianghu. Let’s lay it out, what do you need to let us go? Or do you simply wish we don’t leave alive at all?"

"No, no, no."

Liu Zixuan quickly shook his head, "I never mentioned nor even thought of killing you."

"Why... why?" Wei Linming was slightly puzzled. With Liu Zixuan’s power, killing them was like squashing ants. This golden opportunity, not to kill them? Isn’t it a waste? Despite the absurdity of the thought, he still wanted an answer.

"Because killing you two would dirty my hands!"

Liu Zixuan sneered, "I don’t know what you were thinking—I didn’t say anything, yet you insisted on asking. Now look, you’re embarrassed!"

Embarrassment! Indeed, very embarrassing! Wei Linming felt he could slap himself.

"Alright, I’m tired of beating around the bush with you. The reason you’re not allowed to leave is that I need you both to help me with something. Once it’s done, you can leave here safely and return to your families," Liu Zixuan stated.

Gu Chengkun’s eyes lit up. As long as they weren’t going to be killed, anything was possible.

He quickly asked, "What do you need us to do? Rest assured, as long as we can leave alive, we’ll do whatever it takes!"
