They appear insignificant, yet they are essential.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under Xiao Han's shocked gaze, Fang Zheng returned to the center of the altar, the same location as the dining table, and slowly took his seat at the head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hoo...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Slightly closing his eyes, he retrieved a black iron token from his person, murmuring softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Heavenly spirits, earthly spirits, disciple seeks the altar with three bows!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"First, I invite the star of heaven to enter the Purple Palace!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Second, I ask the spirit to ascend to the profound altar!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Third, I call upon the five elements to assemble!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His voice was low and quick, incomprehensible even to Xiao Han who listened intently, yet feeling all the more that today's boss was exceedingly peculiar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the next instant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hoo...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, a fierce wind arose on the peaceful rooftop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The wind whipped against Fang Zheng's clothes, causing the tableware on the table to clatter, while Xiao Han staggered back and forth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wind!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Han steadied himself, his expression changed dramatically:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Boss, the wind is blowing hard.
