Although Jiang Yuncheng was still dissatisfied, his immediate priority was not to hold these people accountable.

He nodded arrogantly. "The bonus isn't urgent. These people are colluding with that evil spirit; they must be arrested and interrogated properly."

"And that peach wood sword in her hand, I want to take it to Grandpa for a look."

Before Mingzhuo could say anything, those people had already agreed on her behalf without her consent.

"It is right. She destroyed a treasure like the Money Sword, so she must compensate with a magical artifact."

"It's just a broken peach wood sword, how can it compare to even a fraction of the value of a money sword?"

"I knew they must have some ulterior motive for infiltrating the association!"

"They must be severely punished!"

Hou Zhihui knew all too well what these people were capable of, after all, she herself had once been one of them.

"That's not how it is. Shen Ruodi was killed by this master, and the Money Sword was damaged by the Fourth Young Master during the fight. It has nothing to do with anyone else! The Vice President was also replaced by Shen Ruodi!"

He hurriedly tried to explain, but at that moment, who would listen to his explanation?

Mingzhuo: "Don't waste your energy, these people are determined to take the credit."

The middle-aged man in the crowd was sweating profusely, glancing repeatedly at his assistant in a suit and tie beside him, and at Gu Xu, who was even more outstanding and distinguished.

Gu Xu didn't look at him at all, but she glanced at her assistant.

The assistant, who had worked for the boss for many years, knew that someone was distorting the truth and sneered at the middle-aged man.

"Is this how you exorcise evil spirits? Even if you think we're easy to fool, don't let President Gu catch you in the act."

The middle-aged man wore a forced smile, completely unable to withstand the pressure.

In such awkward moments, it's not that he has no choice, but he simply doesn't want to step forward and offend both sides.

However, when faced with two evils, he chose the lesser one and ultimately had to steel himself and step forward.

"According to Hou Zhihui, Shen Ruodi was killed by this master, and the 50 million yuan reward should also belong to her."

The scene fell silent for a moment, and everyone stared at him in surprise.

Speaking of which, this person is the president's secretary, who has always held real power in external relations. This time, the 50 million yuan bonus was donated to the association by the entrepreneur through him.

No one expected that the other party would openly contradict Jiang Yuncheng.

Jiang Yuncheng barely suppressed his temper: "Uncle Yuan, are you mistaken? You actually believed an outsider?"

The association's president and chairman is his own grandfather, so he doesn't believe that the other party would favor an outsider.

He's usually a pretty smart person, so why is he being so confused today?

Mingzhuo: "I think he's the only one who's clear-headed among you. Now that we've figured things out, let's go. It's getting late and we're all hungry."

It's so annoying. She was starving after the fight, and now she has to stay here and listen to people causing trouble.

Li Wenhe said calmly, "Bear with it. These are all living people. We can't just kill them all like we're slaying demons."

Mingzhuo nodded; his eldest disciple understood him quite well.

Gu Xu: "Let's go then, I've already made a reservation at the restaurant."

As he spoke, he took the first step to leave.

Jiang Yuncheng was utterly stunned that an ordinary person would dare to ignore him to this extent.

"Stop him!"

"Don't stop him! Don't stop him!" The middle-aged man rushed forward to block him, no longer daring to conceal the truth. "This is the sponsor of the 50 million prize!"

The agitated members of the association: "..."

What exactly are you talking about?

Is this the famous Gu Sheng, the one even Elder Jiang fears?!

Who would have thought that Mr. Jiang's guest of honor would be so young and handsome? Everyone felt as if it were an absurd dream.

Jiang Yuncheng's face turned bright red. Wasn't the other party watching his entire distorted version of the truth?

He thought for a moment, and finally came up with an accusation: "Even if the others are misunderstandings, what about my older brother? My older brother was held hostage by them, and he still hasn't woken up!"

Pointing at Mingzhuo, he said, "Who knows if she colluded with evil spirits to murder my brother and me!"

Mingzhuo looked at him and gave him a meaningful smile. "You dare point at me? Just you wait!"

She felt a nameless anger rising within her. She touched the puppet in her hand and thought to herself, "If you insist on causing trouble, then it would be really unreasonable for me not to retaliate."

"See, she's threatening me..." Before Jiang Yuncheng could finish speaking, he felt his wrist being grabbed, and the next second he cried out in pain.

The assistant stared at Gu Xu in shock. He had never seen his boss, who was always aloof, elegant, cold, and distant like a flower on a high mountain, actually resort to violence.

His movements were incredibly fast; he dislocated Jiang Yuncheng's arm almost instantly.

Gu Xu took out a handkerchief and slowly wiped his hands. "If you're rude again next time, it won't be so simple."

Jiang Yuncheng's face was filled with disbelief. "You actually dared to hit me? Do you know who I am?"

Gu Xu answered seriously: "You are Jiang Yuncheng, the fourth young master of the Jiang family."

Mingzhuo realized what was happening and couldn't help but laugh out loud. Ah Xu was really too funny.

If you ask him if he knows who you are, he will state your identity, emphasizing sincerity.

Jiang Yuncheng was furious at the other party's cold reaction: "You've gone too far! I'm going to teach you all a lesson today..."

"Shut up!" A clear voice rang out. Jiang Yunli clutched his chest, paused for a moment, then continued to scold, "Have you made enough of a scene? Get him away right now!"

Jiang Yuncheng was so angry that his eyes turned bloodshot. He thought to himself, "Why do you, a good-for-nothing, always get ahead of me in everything?"
