Indestructible God King - Chapter 117.1
Chapter 117.1 Off To Hide From Disaster (1/2)
Heavenly Wolf Sect. Sword-study Peak!
Wang Ke wore a pair of shades and enjoyed a rare sunbath on his deck chair.
Meanwhile, Zhang Zhengdao walked toward him, covering his face.
“Wang Ke, all customers left God Wang Tower and returned to their sects!” Zhang Zhengdao said, still covering his face.
“What happened to your face?” Wang Ke asked.
“It’s all your fault!” replied Zhang Zhengdao.
“My fault?” Wang Ke showed surprise.
“You told me to become a temporary general manager of the God Wang Tower that day, and you promised to increase my pay. But then you came back to Sword-study Peak alone. Did you forget that already?” Zhang Zhengdao said with an unhappy face.
“Of course, I remember. Back then, the entire God Wang Tower was able to hear Zhang Li’er’s voice, then she fought Murong Luguang. That battle was earth-shattering, I tell you; charging straight out from the tower’s window to duke it out. I soon lost interest, though, so I returned to the sect!” Wang Ke explained.
“You still have the face to say that!” Zhang Zhengdao said with a black face.
“Why? Where did I go wrong?” Wang Ke asked back with a stare.
Zhang Li’er recounted, “Zhang Li’er chased after Murong Luguang to beat him up. Something triggered her; she was raving mad. Murong Luguang only dared to block the punches. Zhang Li’er later saw it was meaningless to continue, so she decided to seek you out for revenge!”
“Something must be wrong with her brain! Why does she want to go after me? I’ve been treating her with good food and drinks; I even found a job for her younger brother. She didn’t even thank me for that, and now it turns out she wants revenge? She’s crazy!” Wang Ke berated her.
“You go and tell her yourself!” Zhang Zhengdao said, “She stood outside our sect’s gate and kept on calling for you for a very long time! The visitors from all the different sects were talking about her!”
Wang Ke waved a hand and said, “I came back earlier to start my secluded cultivation! I heard nothing!”
“Zhang Li’er stood there and shouted for two days and two nights straight, and yet you heard nothing? Bullsh*t! Do you know what the people from the other sects are saying? They think you’re a playboy who abandoned her after having your fun. The lady stood on your gate, and still you cold-heartedly refused to see her!”
“When did I ever do this to her? I’m not even familiar with her! She’s the one who tried to seduce me! Damn it, who are those people who made up such stories? Aren’t they dirtying my innocence?” Wang Ke said angrily.
Zhang Zhengdao’s face twitched. “Of course, some complimented your skills. An insignificant Innate Stage cultivator was able to capture the heart of the Golden Crow Sect’s eldest apprentice-sister, a cultivator at the pinnacle of the Golden Core Stage. They even thought about asking you for love advice!”
Wang Ke: “…………………….!”
“Zhang Li’er insisted for two days, and you ignored her. She wanted to destroy the tower at the end, but fortunately, the Sect Lord stepped in to help you settle the matter. She left with Zhang Shenxu and her other juniors after that!” Zhang Zhengdao explained.
Wang Ke said with indignation, “How is this related to me? Why are you looking at me like that? I’m not even close with Zhang Li’er!”
Still, Zhang Zhengdao’s eyes were filled with disbelief. He looked at the other with disdain.
“Zhang Li’er’s been gone for two days already. How did your face end up with so many bruises?” Wang Ke asked curiously.
“It’s all your fault!”
“Why is it my fault again?” Wang Ke asked with a stare.
“You appointed me as manager of God Wang Tower. Damn it. There was a crowd of people who wanted to cancel their insurance, but I stopped them. I’ve been beaten black and blue in the past few days! They covered me with a sack and beat me up last time!” Zhang Zhengdao replied in anger.
Wang Ke rolled his eyes and said, “Do you really think that a manager’s job is easy? Making money is easy, huh? You weren’t careful enough about your personal safety; why blame it on me?”
“Ptooey! It’s all because of you! I used to have such good relationships with people around me! You are a vile creature… You went into hiding with all the benefits and left all the mess to me!” Zhang Zhengdao retorted.
Wang Ke threw him a stare and said, “What benefits? This is business like any other. That money has a purpose! Besides, everything is right and proper. It’s not a scam; why are you talking to me as if I were scamming people?”
“Aren’t you scamming people? A pile of worthless papers robbed them of ten million pounds of spirit stones!” Zhang Zhengdao gasped.
You have the gall to say it out loud?
“We are offering a service. What we sell is a happy future! Didn’t I tell you in the beginning? And make note of this, it is just the beginning. We’ve merely started selling this little insurance and you feel unsatisfied already? What a joke!” Wang Ke replied in disdain.
“Uhh, are you sure that there will be more buyers?” Zhang Zhengdao asked, feeling surprised.
“Of course. Soon, there will be more people coming to buy, in much greater numbers. We can sell a few times more, or even ten times more!” Wang Ke said it as a matter of course.
“Really? Ten… Ten times?” Zhang Zhengdao could not believe his ears.
“Of course. But we need to wait for the opportunity to come. Be patient; let’s digest this round of sales first!” Wang Ke said.
“No need to wait! Let’s start right now! Man! Ten times! Why wait? Brother Wang, what do I need to do? Please guide me! Let me do all the dirty and hard work!” Zhang Zhengdao urged with excitement.
I’ll be truly rich if we can rake in ten times more earnings! My commission will be even greater now that I’m the general manager of God Wang Tower.
Wang Ke shook his head and said, “The time is not right. Let us wait!”
“Wait for what!” Zhang Zhengdao urged.
“Hmm, why don’t you do it on your own?” Wang Ke rolled his eyes.
Zhang Zhengdao put on a frustrated look immediately. Why be your underling if I could were as shameless as you!
Just when Zhang Zhengdao was bursting with anxiety—someone walked over to meet them.
Wang Ke immediately jumped out from his deck chair upon recognizing his visitor.
“Revered Teacher, what brings you here? Quick! A cup of tea for my Revered Teacher!” Wang Ke swiftly gave the order to his subordinates.
Chen Tianyuan ignored Wang Ke’s courtesy, though; he looked at the latter with an annoyed face.
“Revered Teacher, what happened? Let’s talk it over!” Wang Ke asked immediately with a peal of apologetic laughter.
“Humph. What’s the thing between you and Zhang Li’er? She screamed for two days and two nights outside the gate! How did you wrong her? She was harboring such intense hate for you. I had to personally convince her to leave!” Chen Tianyuan said coldly.
“I did nothing! I’m innocent. Revered Teacher, you know me; I didn’t do anything to her!” Wang Ke answered helplessly.
“You’re still unwilling to tell the truth?” Chen Tianyuan questioned again with a stare.
