In the conference room, everyone couldn’t help but straighten up and lean forward. Even Great-Grandma felt the tense atmosphere and leaned forward.

Taking a deep breath. Lightning King tried to make his voice as plain as possible. “Continue speaking.”

“After the joint effort of several experts in geography and history, we can basically determine the location, which is near Mount. Niu, Wu County, the county under the jurisdiction of Wuzhou,” said the secretary.

While she was speaking, Lightning King opened the laptop on the desk, checked the map, linked it to the overhead projector, and the white curtain behind him showed the panoramic map of Mount Niu.

Lightning King looked at the huge area of 1328 hectares and frowned. “The precise location?”

One thousand three hundred twenty eight hectares was only the area of the forest, and not even including the area around it.

The secretary apologized on the phone. “I’m sorry, this is the most precise positioning that could be achieved.”

“Enough,” said Thunderlord. “Just find the general location. The key of the Great Deities Palace will guide us.”

“Wu County just built a general airport last year. We can fly there directly from Shanghai. I have arranged a flight within the next two hours,” said the secretary.

“Okay!” Lightning King nodded and said to the senior staff in the video conference, “The company will select the members who will enter the Great Deities Palace in an hour, and all the senior staff in Shanghai who have signed up must gather at the headquarters immediately. The senior staff of other branches must arrive at Wu County within ten hours if they are selected.”

“Yes!” The chat flooded with acknowledgments.

Lightning King then instructed, “Inform the task department, the screening conditions are as follows: single, family conditions are abundant, have brothers and sisters, ruthless… These people are preferred. In addition, send a message to all selected employees…”

He thought about it and said solemnly, “Baoze will always remember your contributions.”

The secretary said in silence, “Okay.”

Three hours later, a business car left the underground Baoze Carpark, carrying forty of Baoze’s top fighting force participating in the mission of Great Deities Palace to the airport.

Standing at the window of the office, Lightning King looked down at the scene with no expression.

“What are you thinking?” the secretary behind him said.

“I have a bad feeling,” Lightning King whispered.

“Because of the… Trouble magnet of the Li family?”

“No, it’s the Great Deities Palace itself. The first opening of the Great Deities Palace palace was eighty years ago, and the second one was twenty years ago. The cycle is getting shorter and shorter. What does this mean? In the Great Deities Palace, there may be an opportunity to become the Gokudo Path. The demonic priest is the best example. Such temptations move people’s hearts. Most people in the demon descendant community only see this appearance, but they don’t see the inside of the Great Deities Palace itself. No matter the monsters on Li Xianyu or the awakening meat of the Great Demons Alliance, the true nature of them are not those of treasures but a disaster.”

The secretary was stunned and could not help lowering her voice. “You mean…”

“Before the meeting, I had a brief talk with the big boss on the phone about the Great Deities Palace. He talked to me about the ancient demon. Our power came from the ancient demon. As we all know, they were powerful creatures that had been annihilated in a long history. No matter how strong a species is, it can’t compete with time, which is what we all agreed upon in later generations. ”

“At least that was until the emergence of the slime. Now we have to wonder, why did the ancient demon disappear? Is it really because they cannot withstand the test of time? Slime had been in the Great Deities Palace for tens of thousands of years, hundreds of thousands of years, or even longer. The blade of time hasn’t killed it. How can we kill the ancient demon? ”

“What is the cause of their extinction in this world? So, powerful creatures can’t be killed simply by natural disasters?”

If the ancient demons didn’t disappear, then the master of the world was them. According to the law of biological evolution, there can only be one overlord in one world.

If dinosaurs had not been extinct in those days, then there would be nothing going on with humans now. Maybe the present civilized society was composed of dinosaurs. The dinosaurs with a high intelligence would go to work in the office building, while all the bricks in the construction site would be moved around by Tyrannosaurus Rex.

Mosasaurus could act as a fisherman and boat, carrying land dinosaurs to and fro across various continents and islands. Each dinosaur could earn 10,000 dollars of boat fare. Velociraptors could act as a taxi driver.

No, if the ancient demon didn’t die out, then there would be no dinosaurs in the first place.

Dinosaurs and apes were just livestock on their farm.

The secretary couldn’t help but wonder. “What did the big boss say?”

Lightning King was silent. He seemed to be considering whether to tell the secretary. After all, with her rank, she was not qualified to know such a high-end conversation, even if it was just a casual chat between the big boss and him.

If she was an ordinary secretary, Lightning King would definitely not tell her, but the woman behind him had accompanied him for several years. She was only missing a status.

Therefore, Lightning King said, “He said that no one had seen the ancient demon. The speculation about it all came from the clues of history. So, who said the ancient demon was a race?”

“What do you mean by that?” The secretary didn’t understand.

“I don’t know. Maybe it’s just some speculation of the big boss. Maybe he found some clues. You know, he hardly comes to the company. Nobody knows what he is doing in secret.” Lightning King shrugged. “The only thing I understood was that the secret of the ancient demon’s disappearance may be exposed with the opening of the Great Deities Palace. I even suspect that Li Wuxiang knew these secrets. His choice to die at that time was not as simple as making enemies with the world.”

With that, he looked at the group of business cars that were moving away and said, “I don’t know how many of them can come back. Sometimes I wonder why my talent is so bad that I am not qualified to fight with them in the front line.”

The secretary hugged Lightning King from behind and worshiped. “You are different from them. You are the strategist of Baoze. How can you fight like those soldiers? You should be in charge of your own business. Baoze can operate without anyone but you.”

His secretary was his number one fan. Although he was very happy, he was still embarrassed.

Similarly, the big boss also said that in a battle, the strategist was always more important than the fierce generals, just like the state of Shu in the Three Kingdoms. Without the five tiger generals, it was still the state of Shu. But without Zhuge Liang, its strength would come to an end.

But being irreplaceable to Baoze… If this was heard by the big boss, his skull would probably be cracked open.

The secretary caressed the chest muscles of Lightning King, and her face leaned on his back, full of infatuation.

Lightning King originally intended to be alone. He was a disciple of Taoism and didn’t attach importance to women. However, after getting her post, the secretary was quickly attracted by his steadiness and became a little fan of Lightning King. She actively pursued him.

He didn’t pay attention to women, but he always had a slight yearning for love. He couldn’t resist the gentle courtship of the secretary— bah, the persistence of the secretary. After a while, the two got together.

But they didn’t live together, and Lightning King still lived in the company. However, the secretary stayed in Lightning King’s suite all the time, except for the weekend.

“How many times have I said that?” Lightning King frowned and pushed aside the secretary’s arm. “Don’t do extra things during working hours.”

The secretary complained. “Oh.”

It was a little confusing, but the secretary liked this type of serious man.

The age difference between the two was nearly ten years, and the relationship was dominated by Lightning King. The curvaceous and mature secretary was more like a daughter in front of him. No, more like a sister. No, that was not right either. It was hard to pinpoint.

We can’t be too close to the company. If the boss knows, he’ll blow my head off, Lightning King said in his heart.

Lightning King thought back when the big boss first found out that he was doing the secretary in his free time, the big boss was utterly furious. He said that if he were to see any intimate behavior between him and the secretary during working hours, he would fire the secretary and give him a plain-looking one.

The big boss was serious and disciplined.

…

In the second car in the business car fleet, San Wu was responsible for driving. She was a very professional driver. She didn’t listen to music, played on mobile phones, or read her chats. She only looked at the front and rear-view mirrors.

No matter what one was to do, San Wu could focus on just driving.

Li Xianyu and his grandmother sat in the second row. He was looking down and scrolling through the chat in the group. The selected senior employees made speeches in the group. Some of them also sang songs of war, as if they were soldiers going to fight on the battlefield.

“Who says we have no courage? I will be wearing the same uniform as you. Polishing our halberds, we will fight side by side.”

This passage was RT-ed crazily. The senior staff who were not selected gave their best wishes to their colleagues: “Bon Voyage!”

In this time of solemn-ness and excitement, a small loli jumped out. “Brothers and sisters, uncles and aunts, all the best. Please come back triumphant!”

The atmosphere in the group suddenly stagnated and fell into a strange silence.

“Oh my God, this curse took me by surprise.”

“God, please keep watch on Tong Tong at times like this. It’s not so hard, right?”

“F*ck. Originally the aura of trouble magnet is enough for us to be frightened, and then now we are cursed, my will to fight is broken.”

“My will to fight is broken +1.”

“My will to fight is broken +2.”

“It’s over. This trip to the Great Deities Palace is a dead end. Can I jump out now?”

“It’s too late. The doors and the windows are all soldered shut.”

Li Xianyu burst out in a cold sweat. “Tong Tong’s curse… Even I’m in a panic.”

Originally looking at the chat in the group, my heart was full of fighting spirit. Great-Grandma’s dream made us so fearful of the future, and looking at such an encouraging atmosphere made me feel better. Now, I haven’t even gathered enough courage, but my will is already broken.

Thunderbolt Battle Lady glared at him from the corner of her eye, and lambasted him. “Do you really have the right to say that?”

“Also.” Li Xianyu laughed. “Aren’t you on the same team as me? When you were choosing your camps, you chose my team again. Is it that you can’t bear to part with me?”

Thunderbolt Battle Lady glared. “Funny. Am I here for you? I’m here for the points. Teaming up with you, I can get 1,500 points compared to the normal 1,000 points reward. Anyway, it’s not the first time. I have nothing to be afraid of. Remember, I’m just for the contribution points.”

This tsundere. Is it so difficult to admit that you want to team up with me? Li Xianyu was speechless.

Earth God Tian Hao sat in the last row and said, “Battle Lady is such a good girl, how can she fall in love with Li Xianyu, a notorious scum man? Is it true that girls like jerks? ”

This mixed-blooded beauty had a pretty face and a good figure, especially a pair of beautiful legs that would rouse… the interest of any man who looked at them.

Thunderbolt Battle Lady didn’t fear the name of Baoze’s ten gods, and shot back. “What are you bullshitting about? From which eye did you see that I’m interested in this kid? Did you get up this morning without any eye drops?”

She would never admit that she was interested in Li Xianyu. Since the discussion meeting, whenever the female colleagues of the company mentioned Li Xianyu, they would all respond with disgust.

In the beginning, the issue with the stickers was very famous. Then he stirred so much shit during the Forum Conference. Now everyone in the company would shake with fear when they talked about Li Xianyu.

If she really had something to do with Li Xianyu in the future, then the colleagues of the company would gossip like crazy and say, “Look, this is Li Xianyu’s girlfriend~”

Just thinking about it, she was already cringing. At least that was the ideal case she thought about.

“Well said, my great-grandson is not worthy of you,” Great-Grandma said in a strange tone.

Thunderbolt Battle Lady quietly ground her teeth.

Li Xianyu was unresponsive to the name “Jerk.” He accepted it calmly and turned around with a smile. “Earth God, oh, Earth God, listening to your tone, you had a girlfriend?”

Tian Hao sighed. “We broke up long ago. Alas, I have had two girlfriends and they were both quite pretty. But their tempers were not good and they were really selfish. Before falling in love, they were all sweet talk. After falling in love, they instantly evolved into a slave driver and asked me to do their chores. I am not some kind of masochist, and can’t stand such women, so we parted. Someone like Battle Lady would be really nice. She has a gentle temper and is a prim and proper lady. Unfortunately, the guy doesn’t want to return her feelings.” Tian Hao analyzed.

It’s just that you don’t know how much money she eats. No matter how high my salary is, my bank is empty at the end of the month.

“Which girls don’t have a temper? They are all the only children. It is normal that they are willful,” Li Xianyu said.

“Yes.” Tian Hao sighed. “In the future, I will marry Yamato Nadeshiko (the ideal women in Japanese culture). It’s said that the women in the island country are more obedient to their husbands.”

Li Xianyu couldn’t help but feel jealous. This guy could at least choose his spouse freely.
