Chapter 53: You Are Not Benevolent, I Am Not Righteous (Seeking Recommendation Tickets)

  The village head, Wang, was stunned as he watched the villagers of Tuozi Village approaching him with more than 20 companions. These villagers were usually afraid to cause trouble, but today they suddenly became brave. He quickly called Wang Jinguo to inform him of the situation in the village while fleeing rapidly, fearing that if he ran slowly, he would also be caught by the villagers.

  Song Baiyu and the villagers saw from a distance that the kite flyer was running away, but they didn't chase after him. Only a few people couldn't help but shout loudly to scare him for a while, and joyful laughter erupted from the crowd.

  When Wang Jinguo of the Golden Rooster Hotel received the phone call and learned that the villagers of Tuanzi Village were collectively rebelling, he also didn't react for half a day, then stumbled and staggered as he ran to the Presidential Suite on the top floor.

  "Useless thing, can't even handle this matter." Vincent frowned upon hearing Wang Jinguo's report. He vaguely felt that the matter was related to Song Boyu, but without evidence, he wouldn't speak rashly. Looking at Wang Jinguo who seemed to have no idea what to do, he scolded: "Since your subordinates are all defeated, the police will eventually find you. These days, just stay in the hotel and don't go anywhere."

  "My subordinates..." King Jinguo asked tentatively.

  "Don't worry, I'll smooth things over and get them out of here sooner." Vincent frowned and waved his hand in distaste.

  After Wang Jingui left, Vincent immediately made a few calls in a flustered manner, his face full of anxiety. It was clear that the abnormal actions of the villagers of Tuozi Village had caused great trouble for his action plan.

  Song Baiyu brought more than 20 thugs to the police station, and after finishing all the procedures, he returned home at over 11 o'clock in the evening. What surprised him was that Li Chenmu was waiting for him outside his house again, and this time Li Chenmu also brought a middle-aged man.

  Song Baiyu was not unfamiliar with the middle-aged man beside Li Chenmu, because he had met this middle-aged man at the Municipal Cemetery. Seeing Li Chenmu bring a stranger to his home, Song Baiyu's face suddenly turned cold.

  "Bo Yu, let me introduce you to this person. He is my great-grandson Li Yi, also the nephew of Li Cun Tie. Since he has been traveling around Jinyang City, I thought it would be convenient for you two to know each other in case of an emergency." Seeing Song Bo Yu's anger, Li Chen Mu immediately understood what was going on and hastily explained.

  "Mr. Song, please forgive me for my rudeness last time, I've already reported the matter to our family elder and also apologized to Director Luo." The middle-aged man beside Li Chenmu bowed respectfully to Song Baiyu after being introduced by his ancestor.

  Seeing Li Chenmu's attitude towards his grandson, Song Boyu felt much more at ease. He thought about how Luo Shuyuan had been unusually laid-back with him lately, and was even practicing a hands-off management style, which had left him puzzled. Now he finally understood what was going on - it turned out that Luo Shuyuan was actually grateful to him for helping her solve a big problem.

  Song Baiyu opened the door to find a small note left on the coffee table in the living room, it turned out that his older sister had taken Jiji back to her own villa to sleep after waiting for him to return home late.

  "Mr. Li, this time you came to Jinyang City, shouldn't it be just introducing Li Yi to me?" Song Baiyu asked calmly after sitting down in the living room. Song Baiyu knew that as the current head of the Li family, Li Chenmu wouldn't come to Jinyang City to find him for no reason.

  Song Baiyu saw through Li Chenmu's thoughts, and Li Chenmu smiled awkwardly. "The thing is, we auctioned off five Rejuvenation Pills last month, but one of them was resold on the black market for a staggering 50 million, so we've decided to change our auction method and only sell one Rejuvenation Pill per month from now on."

  "This little thing, you just take charge and it's done, no need to ask me." Song Baiyu didn't expect that someone would actually resell the Rejuvenating Pellet. When he heard that a single pellet could sell for 50 million on the black market, his heart skipped a beat, but on the surface, he remained calm as usual.

  "I'm not worried that Boyu doesn't have money to spend, as far as I know, your family is now imposing a comprehensive economic blockade on you, and your financial situation is not optimistic..." Li Chenmu stared at Song Boyu with piercing eyes, revealing a profound expression.

  Song Baiyu's face changed upon hearing this, although the Song family was a red family, but compared to the Li family, which had an old lineage of over a thousand years, it would not be an exaggeration to say that the Song family had no foundation at all. If the Li family wanted to figure out Song Baiyu's every move, it would naturally be an easy task.

  "You're investigating me?" Song Baiyu's eyes flashed with anger as he suddenly became enraged.

  "I just want to know more about my partner so that our cooperation can be more solid, right? Only when we both understand each other thoroughly can we cooperate with complete peace of mind." Li Chenmu smiled unnaturally, indirectly acknowledging Song Baiyu's question.

  "You think you're worthy?" Song Baiyu sneered, his heart filled with disdain and mockery. Although he had long known that cooperating with the Li family was like trying to take a chestnut out of a fire, he had no choice but to take risks for the sake of using their trading network.

  Originally, Song Boyu saw Li Chenmu as generous and righteous, with a good attitude towards himself, without any greedy intentions. He had already considered the Li family to be his most suitable partner, but he didn't expect that after two months of endurance, they would still disappoint him.

  Li Chenmu obviously didn't expect Song Boyu to turn his face faster than turning a page, and he was suddenly reprimanded by a younger generation. He also felt a bit embarrassed on the surface, and couldn't help but let out a cold snort, completely tearing off his disguise.

  Song Baiyu, the youngest son of Song Xiaolian, had lived in Shangjing until he was 21 years old. At the age of 22, despite his family's opposition, he resolutely enrolled in Harvard University's Landscape Design College, which led to a rift with his family...

  Li Chenmu slowly and clearly told the situation of Song Baiyu, with many details even clearer than Song Baiyu himself.

  Li Chenmu spoke without interruption from Song Boyu, until he finished speaking. Then, with a smile, "Not bad, the investigation is very detailed, what does this explain?"

  "Song Baiyu, I admit you're quite skilled at acting, and almost managed to deceive the entire Li family. However, in this mundane world where spiritual energy is extremely scarce, how could someone as young as you possibly reach the fetal breathing stage in just a few short months? The Taoist alchemy techniques are complex and intricate, and even after dedicating my entire life's energy to studying them, I haven't been able to grasp even half of their secrets. And yet, you've managed to master it with ease. Considering all the elixirs that have appeared on your body, the answer is obvious."

  Li Chenmu saw that Song Baiyu's expression remained calm and composed, he couldn't help but feel a little uneasy in his heart. However, thinking of his own strength being able to suppress Song Baiyu steadily, the unease in his heart immediately disappeared. "You coincidentally obtained the precious treasure left behind by the Cultivator, not only did you take the elixir to enhance your strength, but also took out some elixirs to deceive the Li family, attempting to make the Li family your backer."

  "Alright, you guessed it right, so what do you plan to do now?" Song Baiyu originally still had some worries that the other party would guess the truth of the matter, but he didn't expect the other party to talk nonsense for a long time and only come up with this answer. For a moment, he didn't know whether to cry or laugh.

  Li Chenmu originally thought that Song Boyu would flatly deny it, but he didn't expect Song Boyu to admit it outright, and even had an air of fearlessness about him. This made Li Chenmu hesitate - could it be that there was something he hadn't taken into consideration?

  At first, Li Chenmu didn't think of dealing with Song Boyu. After all, the elixir that Song Boyu gave him not only created a high-level foundation-building master but also brought the reputation and status of the Li family to an unprecedented height.

  However, after Li Chenmu repeatedly studied Song Baiyu's materials for two months, he found that Song Baiyu's life trajectory was not unusual at all. He then cautiously contacted Song Baiyu's elders again and still didn't find anything abnormal. Next, he studied all the Xiu Zhenjie materials but couldn't find any information about the Wan Yao Sect mentioned by Song Baiyu, which made Li Chenmu's thoughts begin to waver.

  If Song Baiyu really had the support of the Wan Yao Sect behind him, the Li family would have endured. But now that Song Baiyu is alone and has in his possession a precious treasure coveted by cultivators, does the Li family still need to cooperate with him in such a humble manner?
