The moment I saw President Liu turn around, I instantly stood there in a daze. I really couldn't understand why he would become so haggard in just one night. To say that he had aged twenty years in one night would be somewhat conservative.

President Liu was very nervous when he saw me, he grabbed my hand and said: "Master Ma, what you said before you left yesterday were really golden words. I thought about it carefully for an entire night, and the more I think about it, the more reasonable I feel.

I didn't expect the President Liu to be so impatient, but looking at him like this, I knew that he had spent a lot of time and effort on this matter.

President Liu was overjoyed when he saw this. He raised his head to look at the big building beside him and laughed with difficulty: "There's a café here, it's very authentic and its environment isn't bad. Why don't we go there?"

I didn't like coffee, but I didn't like it either. I thought it was important to get down to business, so I followed him all the way into the building. Finally, I found a quiet place to sit down in the cafe mentioned by the President Liu.

Needless to say, this place was really good. The decorations were just right, neither extravagant nor shabby. Everything was just right, and from time to time, there would be waves of melodious music that would make one intoxicated.

I leaned against the pillow and chose an extremely comfortable position to sit down in. I quietly looked at President Liu and saw that he only sighed after he drank a mouthful of coffee. His face trembled a little before he sat up and started talking.

It turned out that the Pi Xiu was not gifted to him for free by some master like President Liu had said, but it was hiding something.

After the school construction projects were approved, the construction teams came in one after another. The construction of the sheds, the removal of weeds, the levelling of the ground, and all the other preparations for the construction continued. At that time, President Liu was in charge of the infrastructure, so naturally, he was responsible for this aspect of the work.

Originally, everything was progressing smoothly. Although the President Liu was busy, he did not put too much thought into it. Thus, he casually came over to take a look and understand the progress of the project.

However, it didn't take long before something happened in this peaceful place.

During the construction of the foundation for the school building, a sudden collapse of the ground caused a worker to disappear, leaving not even his bones intact.

As the project manager, President Liu was already in a panic. On one hand, he was quietly suppressing the incident, on the other hand, he had also arranged for people to dig open the ground for him, and on the other hand, he also had to pacify the families of the dead. It could be said that he was extremely busy.

However, when the construction team dug up the previously collapsed area, they still couldn't find the remains of the missing worker. This was really strange, as the saying goes, if you want to see someone alive, if you want to see someone dead, then you have to see a corpse.

At that time, the President Liu had just been promoted, so if this incident had happened, he would definitely be held responsible. The more he thought about it, the more unwilling he became, so he tried his best to suppress the matter and spent a lot of money to build up and down their relationship, finally reporting the disappearance of the workers as a matter of fact.

However, after this incident, the President Liu became more cautious, he decided to just focus on this project, and only needed to eat and live on the construction site.

Originally, President Liu would not work so hard to avoid this kind of accident, but after only half a month, another worker fell from the roof and died.

At that time, President Liu even had the heart to die, and quickly settled this matter.

However, before President Liu could catch his breath, another accident happened at the construction site. This time was even more ridiculous, the workers had actually hanged themselves on the construction site!

This time, President Liu could no longer sit still. Although the suicide had nothing to do with the safety of the project, other than being unlucky, the most important thing was to affect the mood of the workers and delay the duration of the construction project.

During that time, the entire construction site was covered in dark clouds. Everyone was trembling with fear, how could they still be in the mood to work?

President Liu finally could not sit still anymore, and so he tried to rely on their relationship to find out, but in the end, he really did find an expert.

The expert wandered around the construction site before saying, "This is because the construction of the school disturbed Yellow Great Immortal's peace, which is why there are so many accidents."

Hearing the master's words, forget about the President Liu, even I believed him seventy percent. I thought that Lanlan and the rest had only broken one of their ancestor's spirit bodies and almost lost their lives.

At this moment, I started to feel some sympathy for those weasels. Now that the city was getting bigger and bigger, the space for these little things to survive became smaller and smaller. At some point in time, there wouldn't even be a place to breathe.

But, even if I had to say it, those workers were indeed innocent, so I asked the President Liu what happened next.

President Liu told me that at that time, he was in a desperate situation and couldn't care about his own identity. Although he didn't really believe Yellow Great Immortal's words, he still followed that expert's instructions.

First of all, according to the expert's request, he had left a small plot of land for the weasels to live on.

This point I understand, it must be the land behind Lanlan's school, I don't know if this expert's height is high or not, but I have to say, at least on this point he did the right thing, the group of people led by the old lady in the Huang Family, with many of them having reached intelligence, if they were to fight with their lives, who knows what they would do.

"And then?" I asked the President Liu.

After President Liu heard this, his face revealed a bitter smile, and said: "The experts even chose east, south, west and north respectively four directions to cast some spells, it's said that they are for blessings or something, I don't really understand it."

I didn't say anything. Although I also felt that the master's words about blessing were a bit too vague, I felt that he at least had some ability.

President Liu continued, "After all of this is done, Master finally chose a small piece of land and said that it's the spirit well of the school, it's the source of all spirits. As long as we can control this land, there won't be any more problems for Yellow Great Immortal and the rest."

"Oh? "There's such a thing?" Hearing this, I felt a little strange. I had heard of Formation Aperture before, but this was the first time I had heard of the term Spirit Aperture.

Taking this opportunity, I secretly communicated with Qiyou, but unfortunately, she didn't know what kind of thing this Spirit Essence was.

"It seems that this spiritual eye has been suppressed, right?" Hearing this, I lightly smiled and asked President Liu, because according to President Liu's words, if the spiritual eye wasn't suppressed, then who knows what might happen to the Huang Family?

However, since the school has been set up, it shouldn't be a problem. However, I am curious as to how this so-called expert managed to suppress the spiritual well.

Thinking about this, I asked.

President Liu wiped the perspiration off his face and became nervous again. Only then did he tell me that the expert's method of suppressing his Spirit Essence was actually the Pi Xiu!

"Fuck," When I heard this, I immediately cursed secretly. I had not said a single word of truth to me for a long time.

However, since President Liu has already confessed, there's no point in pursuing the matter any further. Only, it was only at this time that I finally understood why he didn't want to lose this Pi Xiu.

But then again, he didn't want to lose his Pi Xiu because he was afraid of breaking the suppression of the Spirit Essence. If he couldn't live there, then that would be another matter.

I was too lazy to beat around the bush with President Liu, I directly said to him: "You didn't want to throw the Pi Xiu away because you were afraid of releasing the Spirit Essence, but, why aren't you moving?"

President Liu heard and sighed. He shook his head and said, "Master Ma, you might not know this, but before that expert left, he left a message for me, saying 'The divine beasts do not exist, and Fu Lu no longer exists'.

Hearing this, I almost laughed out loud. I thought to myself, This President Liu has read so many years, how can he still be so scary? If others say so, he will believe it.

I was both angry and amused, but I did not say anything as I quietly looked at President Liu.

Maybe it was because President Liu had also discovered my little Jiu Jiu that I was a little embarrassed, but he still sighed and said, "Master Ma, you might not know this, but when I was in university, my mother found out that I was seriously ill, but in order to save my tuition, my old parents actually concealed this matter, and they still took out all the money without reservation. After I graduated from school, I wanted to pay my respects to the two elders.

When he said till here, President Liu's eyes turned red.

Looking at a person close to a hundred years old crying in front of me, I also felt my heart sour.

I had nothing to say to that, because I hadn't read too many books, and though Grandpa had spent a lot of time in my studies, he was still within acceptable limits.

Although I do not understand how difficult it is for him to climb to this point, but I can feel how reluctant he is to part with his fruits of work after going through so much hardship. Or rather, his achievements today, were completely exchanged with his mother's life!

I even thought, if it were me, would I be at ease?

For a moment, I was silent.

Thus, I sighed lightly. After pondering for a long time, I opened my mouth and said, "How about, I go and take a look?"

In fact, the reason for this was because I suddenly realised how pitiful President Liu was. His entire life's fate was actually tied to a dead thing like this, and he was even far from being as free and easy as I was.

"Let's fight to the death," I said to myself with a sigh.

Hearing that, the President Liu stood up and shook my hand a few times to thank me. Then, he immediately stood up and led me out of the coffee shop.

But in the moment that he left the café, I noticed that two eyes had popped out of the back of his head. They were staring at me coldly in the dark!
