Chapter 149: The All-Sex and the Wang Family! Wang Ai Has Woken Up

~8 min read 1,407 words

This news was clearly beyond everyone's expectations, to the point that the entire conference room was now silent.

Speaking of Chen Duo, every Chairman who knew the past events of the Medicine Immortal Association knew that this was a long-standing, difficult problem for the Company.

Generally, for cases involving such Outsiders, if the people rescued have no issues, they are allowed to leave after the investigation is clear.

Even for Outsiders with special circumstances, arrangements are made for them to be taught before they are allowed to leave.

But Chen Duo's situation is different; logically, the way to handle Chen Duo would be to arrange for someone to teach her how to live alone, how to earn money, and once she knows how to take care of herself, the Company would let her leave.

Of course, if she wanted to join the Company, the Company would not refuse.

But Chen Duo, the Gu Body Saint Child, cannot.

This ability is too dangerous.

To repeat the point, this is an ability that can cause large-scale destruction if it goes out of control.

Furthermore, Chen Duo herself cannot perfectly control this ability.

Even more crucially, according to the Company's tests, when Chen Duo killed while executing missions, her heartbeat did not speed up by even a fraction.

It remained very stable.

Cold-blooded, ruthless, or rather, taking another person's life is no different to Chen Duo than eating or drinking water.

For a person like this, the Company cannot let her out under any circumstances.

After all, once trouble is stirred up, it is not as simple as just not mentioning the Company.

This could potentially cause major turmoil.

Precisely because of this, the other people remained silent when Zhao Zong said the situation regarding Chen Duo had been resolved.

After a long while, Bi Youlong spoke in a deep voice.

"Zhao Zong, how did Liao Zhong and Chen Duo manage to beg that person for help?"

"I will have Liao Zhong provide a report on this matter later; what we need to discuss now is Chen Duo's situation."

Zhao Zong waved his hand.

"Fine, logically, now that Chen Duo no longer has the danger of the Primitive Gu on her, she could be handled according to the Company's C-level case resolution methods.

But as you all know, Chen Duo's situation has not changed over these years; her emotions are very indifferent, and even without the identity of the Gu Body Saint Child, she remains very dangerous to others."

Bi Youlong was the Chairman who had strictly refused to let Chen Duo become a Temporary Worker.

Later, under Liao Zhong's repeated requests and guarantees, Chen Duo finally obtained the status of a Temporary Worker and was able to travel outside.

"I know this too, so I think that for Chen Duo, we still cannot let her leave for the time being, but those preventive measures are no longer needed."

Zhao Zong said in a deep voice.

"I have no objection to this!"

Bi Youlong nodded.

The preventive measures on Chen Duo were all to avoid her ability going out of control.

Now that she no longer has this ability, these measures are naturally unnecessary.

Without these measures, Chen Duo's threat would become very limited.

Or rather, if not for the previous incident with Chen Duo, her current situation would not even be brought up at this meeting.

"I agree too!"

"That works!"

The other Chairmen nodded one after another.

"Then let's settle it like this for now; as for Chen Duo's situation and subsequent arrangements, we will need to conduct an assessment before deciding."

Zhao Zong nodded, setting the tone for this matter.

"This is the third matter!"

Zhao Zong spoke again.

The other Chairmen turned their heads in surprise upon hearing this, though none spoke out of turn.

"The third matter is about the All-Sex; the Company previously received news that some people from the All-Sex intended to do something at this Heaven Grand Ritual.

But now, the situation has reversed!"

"Reversed?"

"Yes, the people from the All-Sex have now almost all withdrawn. According to the confessions of the captured All-Sex members, they received orders from the so-called Acting Sect Leader and then retreated.

However, there should still be some All-Sex members lurking on the mountain now, but the number is certainly not large."

"Zhao Zong, this is Longhu Mountain after all; the Company cannot just send people to investigate one by one."

"That is exactly the point, so if you have any ideas, feel free to speak your mind."

As soon as Zhao Zong said this, the others shook their heads helplessly.

If these All-Sex members go into hiding, it would be one thing if they had records with the Company or if their identities were known.

The key is that the All-Sex has new members every year.

And if these people do not announce in public that they are All-Sex, then no one knows they are.

This is the most troublesome thing.

If the mountain is full of such people lurking now, how are we to find them?

"Wait a minute, Zhao Zong, the next part is when those two will be fighting; won't these guys take the opportunity to cause real trouble while the two are fighting?

If that really happens, some things might occur here on Longhu Mountain."

"Hmm, that is indeed possible. Xu San and Xu Si are both on Longhu Mountain, and there are Company people at the foot of the mountain; we should strengthen surveillance then."

Zhao Zong sighed upon hearing this.

"These guys really don't learn their lesson!"

Someone was very annoyed by the audacity of the All-Sex members.

But wanting to join the All-Sex is too simple.

As long as one says they want to join the All-Sex, then they can join.

This way of joining is truly child's play.

But precisely because of this, the number of newcomers in the All-Sex has been increasing.

Especially in this current era, many young Outsiders are restricted from acting as they please, but joining the All-Sex removes these restrictions.

Liu Yanyan of the previous Corpse-Driving Liu Family thought exactly this way.

It can represent a large portion of young people.

"These guys, do they think they are Lin Xuan, each and every one of them wanting to do whatever they please?"

A chubby Chairman snorted coldly.

"Ahem, don't say this kind of thing outside, lest people think the Company has an opinion about Lin Xuan!"

Zhao Zong spoke up to remind them.

"I know, I was just making an analogy!"

The chubby Chairman's expression became somewhat awkward upon hearing this.

"Forget it, let the people over at Longhu Mountain handle this matter, just don't let a major disaster happen; furthermore, regarding the Wang Family matter, Wang Ai has already woken up."

Mentioning Wang Ai, the expressions of those present all became serious.

"There has been no precedent for revoking the status of a Ten Elders member before!"

Zhao Zong spoke up, "So we need a set of procedures."

"Zhao Zong, this matter is simple if you say it's simple, and difficult if you say it's difficult; the Ten Elders were invited and selected at the time, and they are all figures with great influence in the Outsider world.

Now that the Wang Family is clashing with Baiyun Guan—no, or rather, clashing with the Quanzhen lineage—it really isn't insignificant.

Back then we invited the Quanzhen lineage, hoping they could provide someone, but we were rejected; now is indeed a good opportunity for the Quanzhen lineage to provide someone to take over this status, and no one would be able to gossip."

"That may be so!" Zhao Zong shook his head helplessly.

"But how to handle the Wang Family now? Although the Wang Family's influence is multifaceted, their own strength is not weak either; the key is that the Company cannot sit by and watch the Wang Family be besieged."

"Zhao Zong, what if it is the Quanzhen lineage that takes action?"

A Chairman spoke up gloomily.

The others' expressions changed upon hearing this, and then they shook their heads one after another.

"It is not like the past anymore; the main thing is that we cannot just watch such things happen, if there are too many casualties, it would be impossible to justify.

Moreover, Quanzhen or Baiyun Guan will not take action unless the Wang Family has done something that defies universal condemnation."
