Working: Start by earning the boss a hundred million!

Chapter 7: Isn't the point of diligently cultivating just to beat up whoever you don't like?

Cheng Mai left without changing his expression.

Seeing their boss's furious state, everyone prioritized their own safety and vanished instantly.

Shen Luo looked at the people in the message and thought they were a bunch of cowards.

"You can't even find an ant?" Shang Xingjian suppressed his temper and questioned Shen Luo.

"I've been too busy lately, plus the unexpected incident at Shaoming Mountain, so..." This matter has been put on hold.

The key point is that the decision to postpone this matter was made with the consent of the process manager.

Shen Luo suspected that Cheng Mai was just trying to humiliate the boss.

"The matter of Shaoming Mountain..."

"All the troublemaking spirits have been captured and are currently being interrogated. We should have results by this afternoon at the latest," Shen Luo replied immediately.

“If they don’t talk, we’ll beat them. There’s no point in arguing with them.”

Shen Luomo thought, "The boss is indeed becoming more and more like a criminal."

"I gonna go see."

Shen Luo was startled and immediately followed.

"Boss, calm down. Forced confessions are no longer common; they're illegal."

"Call Cheng Mai."

Shen Luo immediately stopped in his tracks. Was the boss trying to make an example of someone?
But it didn't work!
Cheng Mai wasn't even afraid of her true form!

Cheng Mai remained in the detention cell, still in the old city area. After all, such a bloody place was not suitable for her bright office building.

So at this moment, she stood outside the detention room, looking at the monsters inside who were being beaten and trembling.

Shen Luo kept observing Cheng Mai, who had a calm expression.

I couldn't help but think to myself: Boss, you're acting like a monkey right now.

After finishing the interrogation, the merchant came out with a look that said, "How about that? Are you scared?"

Cheng Mai remained silent.

Shang Xingjian raised his hand and placed it on Cheng Mai's shoulder.

Cheng Mai's evasive maneuver thwarted Shang Xing's perfect plan.

You want to use her clothes as a rag? Dream on!
Shang Xingjian paused slightly, then took the handkerchief Shen Luo offered. "You're quite quick-witted. Come with me."

"Where to go?"

"Shaoming Mountain," Shang Xingjian said, and then he left.

"Boss, why don't I go with you?" Shen Luo said hurriedly, "Cheng Mai, she..."

After all, he was just a mortal.

"You're all-powerful, didn't Mr. Cheng assign you a bunch of tasks?"

Cheng Mai followed, feeling that the boss's words "All-Powerful Little Boss Cheng" were a sarcastic remark directed at her.

As it turns out, even in broad daylight, the boss needs to take a car to go up the mountain.

I was still riding in Chengmai's car.

Before Cheng Mai got into the car, Shen Luo quickly grabbed him and whispered, "He's been in a bad mood these past few days, so be considerate of him."

Cheng Mai: "..." She was still in a bad mood.

Get in the car, enter your destination via voice command, and the car will start and drive away.

Cheng Mai: "Boss, are you in a bad mood?"

Upon hearing the last syllable, Shen Luo was speechless.

The merchant, Jian, who was resting with his eyes closed, said: "..."

Shang Xingjian glanced at her indifferently, "If you hadn't been so brainless back then, you wouldn't be alive now."

Cheng Mai: "If it weren't for your profound magical power, you probably wouldn't have been able to live this long."

"Then you're right. Want to give it a try?" Shang Xingjian raised his hand, and sparks flew from his fingertips.

Cheng Mai thought of his second uncle, who had been attacked and killed, and said, "You won unfairly."

"You mortals strive to cultivate so that you can beat up whoever you don't like? Otherwise, what's the point of cultivating?" Shang Xing bluntly stated.

"Is the boss one too?"

"No, I'm not. No one can beat me even if I don't try."

Cheng Mai remembered what Hu Hu had said: the boss had been there since the beginning of time, and no one knew who he was or where he came from.

He's incredibly handsome, and he's ruthless too. Hu Hu was trembling as he said it, because no one would tear out a monster's soul and let it watch its own body be roasted and eaten!
But the business is simple and bold!
He really dares to do it!

He has no heart!
Shaoming Mountain is currently closed due to a recent wildfire.

Cheng Mai parked the car on the side of the road, and when Shang Xingjian got out of the car, he produced a parasol from somewhere.

Cheng Mai: "..." This is outrageous!

Several people near the thatched hut saw the merchant's shop and ran over.

"Mr. Shang, you've arrived!" The greeting was overflowing with enthusiasm.

"Mr. Cheng, you've arrived too." The greeting was extremely polite.

Shang Xingjian, holding an umbrella, looked up at the dark mountains and said, "You've worked hard."

"It's what I should do. This is also to protect my hometown." The oldest ancient ghost soldier said with a smile, "If it weren't for Boss Shang making us no longer afraid of the sunlight, we wouldn't have been able to do so much. Moreover, Boss Shang has been helping us find our remains and protecting us from being bullied by evil spirits. We will always remember his kindness."

"Has anyone been up the mountain recently?" Shang Xingjian asked.

The ghost soldier shook his head. "We've been taking turns guarding this place these past few days. Because the mountain is closed, we haven't seen anyone come here."

Merchant Jian nodded and stepped into the mountain.

After exchanging greetings with the ghost soldiers, Cheng Mai hurriedly followed.

Once inside the mountain trading company, he simply let loose and was quickly out of sight of Cheng Mai.

"Being able to teleport is truly amazing." Cheng Mai had no choice but to climb the mountain on foot.

"That's truly remarkable." The voice drifted over, carrying a hint of vengeful pleasure.

If you cut off his membership, he won't make money and he'll be angry but dare not speak out.

But now, it's his time to be triumphant.

Cheng Mai is someone who takes less than 2,000 steps a day on WeChat, and he was already panting after climbing for only 20 minutes.

"Young man, your stamina isn't up to par."

"You're still young, you should exercise more."

"When I was your age, I was already traveling 108,000 li a day."

Cheng Mai, panting, leaned against a charred tree trunk to rest, expressing his contempt for his boss's childish and childish way of retaliating.

"A monkey would travel 108,000 li in a single somersault." Cheng Mai took a breath and was about to say something when he suddenly felt something soft against his back.

Ok?
Isn't she backed by a big tree?

Why is it soft?

She heard a rustling sound, as if something was approaching her from behind the big tree.

"Boss, I have a question for you."

"ask."

Is it true that you are immune to all evil?

The rustling sound grew closer, and the tree trunk behind them seemed to be searching inside.

"nature……"

"what--"

Before Shang Xingjian could finish speaking, he heard Cheng Mai let out a not-so-sincere scream.

He seemed afraid, but his tone was also clearly perfunctory.

Merchant Jian, for some unknown reason, chuckled.

"Just like her, she's not even willing to put her heart into it." Shang Xingjian muttered to himself before his figure vanished instantly.

Cheng Mai was dragged into a tree hole by the big tree.

"Hehehe, hehehe, it's been ten days. I haven't seen such a fresh person in ten days." A cackling laugh came from the treetop, clearly satisfied with Cheng Mai, this new human.

Cheng Mai sat up, rubbing his sore shoulder, and looked around the small tree hole. There were several deep white bones around the inside of the tree trunk.

Her expression remained calm, showing no sign of fear.

The tree spirit seemed to pause for a moment, then asked angrily, "Aren't you afraid?"

In the past, everyone she captured would scream in fear, and she loved seeing that.

Cheng Mai: "Sister, sister, even people from Tianjin would curse you if they heard this."

It is not very aggressive, but extremely insulting.
