63: All parties were shocked!
Mount Longhu's back mountain.
The Old Celestial Master, with a worried expression, comforted him, "Jinzhong, calm down..."
"Senior Brother! How can I calm down?! When our Tianshi Mansion was ambushed by Quanshen, where was the company? My four limbs were crippled, where was the company?!"
"Now, people are bullying us right to our doorstep, where is the company?!"
The Old Celestial Master immediately reprimanded him sternly:
"Junior Brother!!! Watch your words! There are so many juniors here! How can you say such things!"
"You only think about Lin Yuan every day, but have you ever thought about the many Disciples of Tianshi Mansion! Have you ever thought about Mount Longhu, with its Legacy of thousands of years! Are you going to abandon them all?!"
Tian Jinzhong immediately deflated like a balloon, slumping down.
"Then you tell me... what should we do?"
The Old Celestial Master's eyes narrowed, and he said Domineeringly:
"If soldiers come, we'll block them; if water comes, we'll stem it! Our Tianshi Mansion will face the challenge head-on!"
...Just as Tian Jinzhong and the Old Celestial Master were discussing countermeasures, the news of Quanshen attacking Mount Longhu had already reached All-Kinds-Of's headquarters.
All the directors were urgently summoned.
After seeing the information, Huang Boren slammed it onto the table.
"This matter! Responsibility must be pursued!"
"Ever since this kid came down the mountain, he's been causing trouble, and this time so many people died! Does he really think the company's rules are just for show?"
"Hehe, you say that so easily, Director Huang, how exactly are you going to pursue his responsibility?"
Bi Youlong, as someone who had slowly risen from the grassroots, was naturally at odds with Huang Boren's faction.
"Is this matter really Mount Longhu's fault? Quanshen launched a large-scale attack, and they were retaliating. Are you saying that when the enemy attacks your home, you want the people of Tianshi Mansion to just wait for death?"
"Moreover, Lin Yuan is, after all, the Old Celestial Master's Disciple. It's understandable for him to protect his sect."
"Doesn't the company have a problem in this regard? Such a large-scale attack, and we didn't receive any intelligence beforehand. If the higher-ups investigate, none of us will come out of this well!"
"None of us expected Quanshen to be so bold as to dare to ambush Mount Longhu."
Zhao Fangxu narrowed his eyes.
"These are all secondary matters. Right now, our main discussion is about Lin Yuan. Director Bi, what are your thoughts?"
"In my opinion, Quanshen bears a large part of the responsibility for this. In recent years, Quanshen has risen too quickly, becoming increasingly rampant and disregardful of rules. All-Kinds-Of's regional managers are now troubled every day by Quanshen's disturbances."
"I think Tianshi Mansion did a good job this time! They directly gave everyone in Quanshen a wake-up call."
After Bi Youlong finished speaking, he sat down. Zhao Fangxu looked at the surrounding directors and slowly stood up.
"Putting aside the matter of Lin Yuan of Tianshi Mansion killing so many Quanshen members on the mountain, he previously publicly beat The Ten Elders, Wang Ai was crippled by him, and Wang Bing even died mysteriously. All of this is because of Lin Yuan!"
"Lin Yuan must be held responsible for this! The Wang family, after all, is one of The Ten Elders. For them to be crippled like this is indeed a bit outrageous, and the Wang family will probably be difficult to rely on in the future. This is not a good thing."
Bi Youlong immediately retorted:
"Lin Yuan is certainly at fault in this matter, but I heard that someone deliberately provoked Tianshi Mansion, wanting to seize Zhang Chulan's Source of Qi, which led to a series of events. It must be admitted that the Old Celestial Master indeed has a problem with lax discipline."
Zhao Fangxu nodded.
"This matter, after all, involves The Ten Elders, and the Wang family's situation is also difficult to handle. Someone needs to take over the sectors he was responsible for. How about this, let them gather and discuss it."
"What do you all think?"
Bi Youlong immediately nodded.
"I agree with Director Zhao's view!"
"I agree too!"
...The directors present looked at each other, and finally, all of them raised their hands in agreement...Meanwhile, in a warehouse not far from Mount Longhu.
Dozens of Quanshen members who had just escaped from Mount Longhu were gathered together.
"Why are so few people back? Where are the others?"
Xia Liuqing looked at Dou Mei, who was in a sorry state, his brows tightly furrowed, sensing that something was seriously wrong.
This time, Quanshen had deployed most of its main force; there shouldn't have been so few people returning.
"Old Master Xia... it's a long story. We underestimated Lin Yuan this time!"
Dou Mei rubbed her temples, looking distressed.
"Lin Yuan alone massacred dozens of Quanshen experts. Thunder Smog Cannon Gao Ning also died by his hand, and Old Master Wan and his Disciple... all were killed by him."
"All these... people were killed by that one kid?"
Xia Liuqing looked at Dou Mei in disbelief.
Some Quanshen members who hadn't participated in the operation were all filled with indignation.
"Damn it! What does he take me for? Does he think we, Quanshen, are watermelons to be chopped at random?"
"No! This grudge! It cannot be forgotten! We must get revenge!"
"Right! When have we ever suffered such a great loss! Revenge!"
...Xia Liuqing couldn't help but sneer:
"You're so brave? Go up the mountain now and kill Lin Yuan for me!"
"If you think you can defeat Gao Ning, then go right ahead!"
At this moment, Xia Liuqing's mind was very clear. Fortunately, he had gone to find Feng Baobao and had not encountered Lin Yuan. Otherwise, his life would probably have been left on Mount Longhu.
He was aware of Thunder Smog Cannon Gao Ning's strength. To be honest, even he would have fallen victim to the Twelve Afflictions Formation. He never expected Gao Ning to die at Lin Yuan's hands. He really didn't know what methods this kid possessed.
"Lin Yuan? Truly extraordinary. I never expected Tianshi Mansion to produce such an incredible Genius."
"Forget it, if this mission failed, it failed. Where is the Acting Sect Head Gong Qing? Why haven't I seen him?"
At this point, a Quanshen member who had escaped from the mountain said, "While I was escaping, I think I saw the Acting Sect Head. He had his limbs cut off and was tied up, then he was transported down the mountain."
Xia Liuqing frowned at this.
"Damn it... It seems the Acting Sect Head's plan was exposed. No wonder I went up the mountain according to the plan and still haven't contacted Gong Qing... What a waste!"
Xia Liuqing had long disliked this young brat and always felt that he was unsuitable to be the Acting Sect Head. Not just him, but many in Quanshen also had reservations about it. If Gong Qing wasn't somewhat clever, probably no one would have paid him any attention.
Now that the mission hadn't been accomplished, Gong Qing had lost his value. Since he had no value, if he died, he died.
"Alright, this matter ends here. The operation failed. Everyone preserve your strength and retreat."
