Chapter 116: Chapter 116: Longtai Group, Warmly Welcomes Sir Home!

Yu Yang’s confidence had its reasons.

To the average martial artist, the Heavenly Rankings seemed unattainable.

But for a top Martial Arts Family like the Yu Family,

a mere Heavenly Ranking really counted for little.

If upon his return from demonstrating his swordsmanship, he could truly attend to the elder and advance his Sword Dao cultivation even further,

then by the time of the Immortal Gate conference three months later, he would be confident of securing a place on the Jade Rankings.

And that was Yu Yang’s pursuit.

For atop the Jade Rankings were the elite masters from various Immortal Cultivation sects.

The so-called Immortal Cultivation sects were those hidden from the world, leading many to believe they had already vanished, belonging to the major noble sects.

On the Jade Rankings, Heavenly Beings were common as mud, Xiaoyao were as numerous as dogs, there were even terrifying figures like the Half-step Loose Immortals.

Being listed among them meant one truly possessed real strength.

As for the Heavenly Rankings, in the eyes of someone like Yu Yang, they were nothing more than child’s play.

This was also why Yu Yang didn’t take this sword demonstration too seriously.

It was only his brother, a waste expelled from the family for cultivating heretical methods, who would die at the hands of such people.

On a plane bound for Beijiang.

At this moment, in the first-class cabin, a man kept glancing at Tang Xuan’er not far away.

After a while, he couldn’t contain himself any longer, coughed lightly, and then said with a smile, “Excuse me, beautiful lady, are you a doctor?”

Tang Xuan’er lifted her gaze from the book, looking up at the man who had spoken.

He was a well-dressed, handsome man.

Probably in his thirties.

He seemed like a corporate elite by his demeanor.

Out of courtesy, Tang Xuan’er gave a slight smile and nodded.

This smile made Zhang Mingke feel his heartbeat quicken by three beats.

From the moment he boarded the plane, Zhang Mingke had noticed this stunningly beautiful woman.

Having climbed the corporate ladder for years, Zhang Mingke had seen his fair share of beautiful women.

But how could those women, wrapped in all kinds of jewelry and meticulous makeup, compare to such a girl with natural grace?

Moreover, since boarding the plane, this woman had been engrossed in reading.

Zhang Mingke sneaked a peek and noticed she was reading highly specialized medical books.

This only intensified Zhang Mingke’s interest.

Now, seeing Tang Xuan’er smile at him, Zhang Mingke felt greatly encouraged and replied with a smile,

“Hello, my name is Zhang Mingke. May I get to know you?”

Saying so, Zhang Mingke extended his hand as though he wanted to shake hands.

At the same time, he made sure to reveal the limited-edition Vacheron Constantin on his wrist.

However, the anticipated conversation didn’t happen.

Tang Xuan’er frowned slightly and then lowered her head to continue reading her book.

Zhang Mingke was thus left hanging.

This couldn’t help but irritate him.

After all, he was a corporate elite with an annual salary in the millions.

There were no small number of women who pursued him.

Yet, he had never met a woman who gave him so little face.

And he noticed the man sitting beside Tang Xuan’er, Xue An.

In his opinion, the clothes Xue An wore from head to toe didn’t amount to more than a few hundred yuan, not even enough to buy one of his own tie clips.

Therefore, he didn’t think this man was anyone significant.

With a beauty at his side, Zhang Mingke found it hard to let go, so his gaze flickered as he schemed, his expression gradually turning sinister.

Xue An naturally noticed this man as well.

But in Xue An’s view, this man was no different from an ant.

A creature that could be squashed with a single finger was not worthy of Xue An’s attention.

As the plane slowly landed and everyone walked through the jet bridge to the airport hall,

Zhang Mingke approached again, trying to be as graceful as possible as he said, “Miss, we’ve traveled together, which must mean fate has brought us together. May I have the honor of knowing you?”

Tang Xuan’er remained expressionless and didn’t even glance at him as she walked past him straight away.

Zhang Mingke clenched his teeth in secret, wanting to say something.

As Xue An walked past him, he stopped, flashing a set of white teeth and smiling threateningly, “I’ve traveled with you as well, does that mean we’re also fated?”

Having said that, Xue An smiled and walked away.

Zhang Mingke’s face turned extremely ugly, angrily glaring at Xue An’s departing figure, then pulled out his phone to make a call.

“Hey, Brother Liu? Are you still at the airport? Yes! Get some guys over here; I’ve got a bit of a situation!”

Zhang Mingke ended the call, and with a sinister look, he watched Xue An and the others walk away, sneering inwardly.

He had just phoned Liu Laoda, a snake that had entrenched himself at the airport for many years.

Once Liu Laoda entangled this group, he could step in to resolve the situation and legitimately meet the girl, right?

With this in mind, Zhang Mingke felt a blaze of excitement and followed them out.

Liu Laoda operated right near the airport, managing all the taxis in the vicinity.

So with a single call from Zhang Mingke, he rushed over with some men.

“Xiao Zhang, what’s the issue?” Liu Laoda asked.

Zhang Mingke explained the situation.

Liu Laoda looked at the retreating figures of Xue An and his company, then nodded, “Don’t worry, this is no big deal! Come on, let’s go over there with big brother!”

Zhang Mingke was thrilled and followed him out of the airport terminal.

Then Zhang Mingke froze.

Liu Laoda froze too.

In fact, all the people coming out of the airport froze.

Because when Xue An walked out of Beijiang Airport,

Qin Yuan was leading the executives of the Longtai Group, waiting respectfully by the roadside.

As soon as Xue An emerged,

Qin Yuan hurried forward several steps and bowed deeply.

“Longtai Group, welcomes Mr. Xue home!”

After he spoke, the executives following him also bowed and shouted in unison.

“Longtai Group, welcomes Mr. Xue home!”

Such a display left everyone dumbfounded.

Only Xue An remained composed, slightly nodding his head.

“Let’s go! My daughter is hungry; she needs to eat!”

“Yes!” Qin Yuan nodded and then personally opened the door of the Rolls-Royce, serving Xue An like a doorman as he got into the car.

Xue An glanced at him, cracked a small smile, then got into the car, holding his daughter.

And Tang Xuan’er was arranged to another vehicle.

After the convoy drove off into the distance,

Everyone present wore a look of astonishment.

“That middle-aged man just now… seems to be a director of Longtai Group… Elder Qin!”

“How is that possible? What’s Elder Qin’s status? How could he possibly open a car door for a young man?”

“But I feel it’s impossible, yet that was Elder Qin! And those people with him, they are all high-ranking executives of the Longtai Group!”

In the midst of these arguing voices, Zhang Mingke felt a chill throughout his body.

Because he knew better than anyone that the person just then was indeed Longtai Group’s Chairman, Qin Yuan.

The people following him were indeed the senior echelons of Longtai.

The reason he was so sure was that he worked at Longtai Group!

There was a time when he had seen Qin Yuan from a distance at an annual company meeting.

The impression that Qin Yuan left on Zhang Mingke was profound.

But he never expected that Longtai’s Chairman would treat that man with such respect today.

Who on earth was he?

Thinking this, Zhang Mingke couldn’t help but shiver.

At this moment, Liu Laoda’s reaction was even worse.

He turned deathly pale, his whole body trembling.

“Brother Liu, what’s wrong?” Zhang Mingke asked with concern.

No sooner had he spoken than Liu Laoda slapped him across the face.

Smack!

Zhang Mingke was stunned, holding his face and looking at Liu Laoda, not understanding what had happened.

Seeing Liu Laoda shivering, he said, “Hey Zhang, are you sick of living? Don’t drag me into this, will you?”

“Brother Liu, what’s going on?” Zhang Mingke asked, almost sobbing.

Liu Laoda sneered, “Do you know who that guy just now was?”

“Who?”

“That’s Mr. Xue, someone everyone on the streets of Beijiang knows not to mess with! You made me go after him? Do you want me dead?” As Liu Laoda spoke, he delivered two more slaps.

Zhang Mingke’s nose bled as he cried, and then he burst into tears!
