Chapter 430 - 322: Xi Wenxuan
Mu Yiqing’s brow furrowed slightly as she looked at her system interface:
[Xiang Beifei has stated facts in front of you, speech value +45]
Up to now, every word Xiang Beifei had said was considered truthful under Mu Yiqing’s surveillance.
She actually wished Xiang Beifei would talk more because every time he spoke to her, he managed to choke her off, inexplicably ending the conversation and hardly allowing for more secrets to be extracted.
However, today’s Xiang Beifei could be described as a chatterbox, answering all kinds of topics he normally wouldn’t discuss with her.
The more Xiang Beifei spoke, the more she understood him.
"Our Alliance Development Department is designed to promote better development of the alliance, not to make it more chaotic. Xiang Beifei hasn’t done anything inappropriate, and he speaks the truth," Mu Yiqing said.
"He is promoting Luo Yunxian, a dangerous figure who poses a great threat to the alliance! As the secretary of the Alliance Development Department, you just watch as Luo Yunxian, so arrogant, is admired by everyone? Is this the attitude of your department?" He Caiwei asked icily.
The higher Luo Yunxian’s reputation, the worse it was for He Caiwei!
Because then, he wouldn’t be able to complete his system mission!
So he absolutely couldn’t watch Luo Yunxian’s reputation accumulate so high and let him be pushed aside!
Mu Yiqing pondered for a moment and said, "The purpose of the Alliance Development Department has always been to ensure the stability of the alliance. The things Luo Yunxian did in the past were indeed great and beneficial to the development of the alliance. It’s harmless for the masses to know this; it rather makes them easier to guide."
"The alliance now needs a brand-new way of management, not to be guided by an outsider who is disdainful of others! The alliance should elect a new spiritual leader to establish its authority!" He Caiwei exclaimed.
"For seven years, no large-scale beast tides have occurred. Luo Yunxian is known to us in the alliance as the most meritorious person. Everything regarding Xiang Beifei is under control. Tying him with Luo Yunxian, watched by all, will instead make it easier to manage him," Mu Yiqing said.
"Is this the insight you have as the secretary of the development department?"
He Caiwei narrowed his eyes, staring intently at Mu Yiqing.
If the alliance needed someone to establish its authority, it rightfully should be him, He Caiwei! Not Luo Yunxian!
And yet Mu Yiqing apparently failed to realize this!
But in reality, Mu Yiqing was not slow-witted; she could deduce a lot from the way others spoke and clearly understood what He Caiwei wanted to convey.
However, deciding who to promote was not up to her.
"This is the director’s opinion. I can’t change it; I am just following the director’s orders. Commander He, if you have objections to this matter, you can discuss it with our director. I am just in charge of handling tasks and cannot decide these matters," Mu Yiqing said with a smile.
He Caiwei snorted heavily!
He then looked back at Xiang Beifei, who was on stage answering questions.
After a while, his expression calmed down.
"No matter how you wriggle, you won’t escape from the palm of my hand!"
He Caiwei was quite reassured.
How high can the future achievements of an N-level Awakener be?
Could he possibly contend with an UR-level Awakener like himself?
Wishful thinking!

Xiang Beifei had already shifted the discussion to Kong Daming’s shop, specifically helping to introduce the cuisine of Kong’s Mansion’s banquet, highly praising Kong Daming’s culinary skills.
A top-tier celebrity, endorsing on the spot.
This was the main topic of the day.
The shop was bustling, with Xiang Beifei’s assistance, Kong Daming was all smiles, his shop’s business was nothing to worry about. Many acquaintances came today for the grand opening, mostly his former comrades as a pioneer, including many high-ranking alliance members like Mu Yiqing supporting the event.
At that moment, a cheerful call rang out from behind: "Classmate Xiang Beifei!"
Xiang Beifei turned his head and saw it was Xi Keyao.
"Why are you here?" Xiang Beifei asked.
"I came with my dad! My dad and Uncle Kong used to be colleagues," Xi Keyao said happily.
Suddenly, she became visibly uneasy.
"What’s wrong?" Xiang Beifei asked in confusion.
"That... That... My dad said he wants to talk to you about some things. I said it wasn’t necessary, but he insisted on seeing you, and I couldn’t stop him. I was worried he might come looking for you and make things unpleasant, so I ran over to give you a heads-up to spare you any difficulty," Xi Keyao explained haltingly. @@novelbin@@
"Uncle Xi wants to see me?"
Xiang Beifei had not seen Xi Keyao’s father for a long time, and to be honest, he barely remembered him and didn’t know what to say.
However, out of politeness, he did not refuse.

"Alright, then I’ll meet him," Xiang Beifei said.
"Then wait here, I’ll go find my dad!"
Xi Keyao turned to fetch someone, but after a few steps, she stopped and said softly, "That... Xiang Beifei, my dad might say some nonsensical things, don’t take them to heart!"
"What nonsensical things?"
Xiang Beifei found it very strange.
"Just... just some nonsensical babbling. He usually likes to speak nonsense, so don’t take it too seriously! He can be annoying, just ignore whatever he says."
After speaking, Xi Keyao ran away, her face flushed red.
Soon, Xi Keyao arrived with a burly man at Xiang Beifei’s side.
This man was very sturdy, with a stern face, no trace of a smile, and eyes that vaguely conveyed a hint of coldness and wariness, the type developed from years of fighting in the wild outlands.
[Host: Xi Wenxuan]
[SR level, Composed System]
[State: Late God Refining]
"Xiang Beifei?"
Xi Wenxuan’s voice was powerful and resounding, like a bell that shook the soul when it rang in one’s ears.
"I’ve met Uncle Xi, yes, I am the junior Xiang Beifei."
Xiang Beifei greeted politely. He had not seen Xi Wenxuan for a long time and had almost no memory of him—it had been years, and people change a lot. This was also the first time he had seen him since coming to this world.
But the necessary politeness was not to be neglected.
"Very well."
Xi Wenxuan stared at Xiang Beifei, his expression cold and emotionless, showing no warmth or enthusiasm despite Xiang Beifei’s renown.
"Come."
Xi Wenxuan turned and walked forward with large strides, not even bothering to explain what he wanted to do, not uttering any superfluous words.
Xi Keyao timidly said to Xiang Beifei, "Xiang Beifei, don’t mind him, that’s just his personality."
"Is he not good at talking?" Xiang Beifei asked quietly.
"He talks a lot, it’s just not convenient for him to speak now, sometimes he’s quite annoying, always bossing me around," Xi Keyao muttered.
"I’m not deaf."
Xi Wenxuan called out from ahead.
Xi Keyao made a face at her father’s back.
