Ceo’s Fierce Lady Immortal - Chapter 242

Sang Shui took a deep breath. He was positioned near Su Ci Yi’s back that the latter could sense the firm deepness in the air.

The atmosphere was too suffocating that now she regretted not having a tea or drinks that could settle her mood. She had just come back from the seclusion and her senses were quite sharp than ever before. To be able to reach the Divine Spirit Stage is quite a feat that she had achieved in a short span of five years. It could be said that the last time she reached this stage, it almost took her fifty years into seclusion and it took her a couple of hundred of years to reach the nascent soul stage. And it was estimated that without any mishap, she could reach ascension within a half a thousand of years.

But then the incident occurred and before she could experience tribulation, she died back then… or at least her body. Her soul was sent to the faraway universe and she didn’t even know if this was the present or a mere parallel world.

In the divine spirit stage, she was able to form her cultivation core inside. The formation had already been matured and stabilized. Without a core, a cultivator couldn’t able to proceed to the next level. Also, the range of her perception widened as her agility even more improved.

Back then with her foundation stage, her left foot was still buried being a mortal.

Now, with her new level up, she could literally feel being an immortal; adept in her emotions and was even more stable.

She could even go on a hunger strike for a whole month. Now Su Ci Yi could manage not eating and drinking for a month. Of course, she still needed to eat to satiate her hunger, but that would be after a month of not eating.

Su Ci Yi was dawdling and thinking things, when a sudden glass that fell on the ground returned her to reality.

Who knows when, but Sang Shui was already sitting in front of her.

Lingua Liu opened his mouth, but no words came out. It seemed that he’s hesitant to speak whatever he was thinking.

“Yi…” It was Sang Shui who continue.

“We are very grateful for your assistance at those times when our village is in peril and chaos. At those times, we thought that everything will be going back to normal and we will have nothing to worry about. But we were wrong…”

Su Ci Yi replied, ” It doesn’t matter. It was just coincidental at that time. I was already here and I can’t turn a blind eye. Speak. What is the matter this time.”

Lingua Liu butted, “Those times when you are here, it was because of the greed of people that cause mischief. Now, it seemed that we are against nature. And the effect on us villagers has no limitation. Everyone is being struck with tragedy.”

Sang Shui saw her eyebrows wrinkled and continued what he had started, ” The forest… the forest that you have threaded the first time. There was a black fog surrounding it now. Few soldiers who happened to stroll on that area never came back. A few days, the surrounding area was filled with stagnant and putrid smell of flesh decaying…”

” We have investigated without further going to the inside, that it came to that forest that emitted black fog and killed our men. Some were able to escape out of peril, but when they came back, their flesh had already corrupted that there’s no other way to treat them. The fog has a domino effect that once contaminated, the whole body will rot immediately.”

“When did it all started?”

Sang Shui sigh with a heavy blow, ” The fog became more hostile five years ago. We haven’t been able to tell you at that time because of your agitation to find a seclusion cave. We don’t want to bother you.”

Su Ci Yi was speechless.

She didn’t go through that forest at that time when she came here. Before they left a long time ago, Sang Shui left her a transportation talisman that will assist her and instantly transported her to the exit of the forest.

Without ever threading the inside, it sure made Su Ci Yi’s like safe. Who knows at that time if she decided to take the long route, she might have been gnawed and rotted on the spot?! At those times, her cultivation isn’t still solid. Without her core, she couldn’t withstand the destructive fog.

“What do you want to do?”

*Cough

Lingua Liu passed a look at Sang Shui, ” Won’t it be a hassle to take a look…”

“All right!” Su Ci Yi stood up, then disappeared on the spot.

Both Sang Shui and Lingua Liu portray a surprised look with each other.

It seemed that Su Ci Yi is eager to test her new skill and go on.

Sang Shui stood up and was about to leave, but a certain someone’s silhouette appeared in front of the doorstep again. He stumbled a few steps before composing his disoriented stature.

Su Ci Yi vanished and appeared again in an instance. She looked at Sang Shui who was about to leave.

“Where are you going? I need to report to you the situation on that forest right?”

So fast! Sang Shui almost blurted, but went back.

“There was a wormhole inside. The stench and fog came on that. Also, the surrounding was terribly putrid. If one may be able to make inside, they won’t resist the lingering smell.”

“How was the hole?” Lingua Liu inquired. It was such the first time hearing this.

Su Ci Yi wasn’t able to delve further. But she could sense the bottom hole was deep that she could ever imagine.

What lurked inside it? Su Ci Yi didn’t know also…

But this thing…, she had a vague feeling it isn’t simple at all.

Qin Corporation Major Building

Inside the spacious whole floor, turning to the left side of the hall way, is the CEO’s room. The room was tint in simplicity, not a typical elite executive’s office. However, the decorations and supplies inside were made of pure Ivory and rimmed of golds. That was why, not even the secretary or office employees were allowed to enter. One couldn’t make replace the furniture and decorations inside once broken.

On the left side of the office is a crystal desk situated near the crystalline window and overlooking the below scenery. What was good in this position is the view of the vivid and ephemeral bright sky on the day.

It was a good stress reliever for once when the mood is turbulent.

Seated now on the executive chair is a man in his thirties. He got a long legs crossing over each other while his left hand was supporting his face. Looking over his picture, one can determine that he was in his melancholy mood.

Today, he already made a few sighs in his seat.

A few moments, his phone rang and immediately answered with a slightly grumpy mood.

“What is it?”

EKK. The person on the line shriek. He already sense that the other party is in a bad mood.

“B-Boss…are you going to attend the annual gathering today? Few of the directors and our executives were already waiting for your appearance.”

“HuZao, what is your position there? Isn’t it to be a substitute whenever I can’t go? You got to deal with it. It isn’t important anyway.”

“Ahhh. okay I get. I’ll sub you today”

“Alright. I’ll hung up–”

“Wait!” Qin HuZao stopped him, ” Boss, what about the gifts and tokens directly intended for you? Where will I…”

” JUST GROUP THEM TOGETHER AND SEND TO MY HOME. That simple, don’t you know it too? -”

Then the phone hang up.

Qin Yu: “…” It wasn’t him who called off the conversation.

Qin HuZao accidentally clicked on the end call. It was just an accident! He swears it’s just an accident! It wasn’t that he could piss himself because of the other party’s angry tone! He wasn’t afraid of him at all!

Really!

HuZao had no choice but to be the representative. Today is the annual foundation of their corporation, and the whole department made a few intermissions, gigs, and even surprise for him. But the man seemed not in the mood to join.

Well, he could already sense it.

Just where the heck did the goddess that made this man’s mood as bright as the scorching day went?!

Just where on earth is she?!
