After leaving the office, Cao Yanhua, accompanied by his bodyguards in suits, entered the elevator and headed to the first floor.
"Boss, are we just going to leave like this? That kid is so arrogant, are we just going to let him go like this?" the leading bodyguard asked.
Cao Yanhua's expression was grim, and his tone carried a chilling undertone: "Of course, we can't just let it go like this, but we can't lay a hand on that guy in front of Xi Yao either. What if Xi Yao thinks I'm the kind of person who likes to solve problems with violence?"
After a pause, Cao Yanhua continued, "Besides, I don't even know who that kid is, nor do I know his relationship with Xi Yao. This makes it even more difficult for me to act rashly. What if that kid is Xi Yao's brother or relative? Wouldn't it ruin things if I hit him?"
"I see, boss, you've thought of everything." The bodyguard said with a smile.
The elevator dinged, and the silver-gray elevator doors slowly opened.
Cao Yanhua, accompanied by bodyguards in suits, stepped out of the elevator and said as he walked, "Sun Jian, you need to investigate that kid's background for me. I need to know who he really is!"
"Yes, boss." Bodyguard Sun Jian nodded vigorously.
Suddenly, a bodyguard exclaimed in surprise, "Boss, something's not right, this isn't the first floor!"
Cao Yanhua looked at the corridor in front of him and then realized something was wrong!
The first floor of Jingtai Pharmaceutical Company is the lobby, but this is a corridor, so this is definitely not the first floor!
Looking at the office numbers in front of him, Cao Yanhua was even more surprised to find that this was actually the top floor!
"Did we press the wrong button just now?"
After speaking, Cao Yanhua entered the elevator again with his bodyguards.
This time, Cao Yanhua pressed the button for the first floor of the elevator himself, but when the elevator doors opened, he found that he and his group had returned to the top floor!
"This is really weird!"
Cao Yanhua entered the elevator with bodyguards once again, but the result was the same!
He even tried taking the elevator to other floors, but he always ended up back on the top floor!
"Boss, have we encountered a ghost wall?" one of the bodyguards asked, looking panicked.
"Nonsense!"
Cao Yanhua sternly rebuked him.
But when the elevator doors opened, he found himself in the rooftop corridor again!
Cao Yanhua panicked, and a layer of sweat appeared on his forehead.
"Perhaps the elevator is malfunctioning!" said Sun Jian, the bodyguard team leader.
"Yes, the elevator must be malfunctioning. Let's take the stairs!"
Cao Yanhua then led his bodyguards out of the elevator and down the emergency staircase.
But they went down floor after floor, and each time they would return to the top floor!
Cao Yanhua finally couldn't hold back anymore!
Sun Jian and the other bodyguards also showed expressions of fear, and two of the more timid bodyguards were even scared to tears!
Cao Yanhua took out his phone to call the police for help, but the call couldn't get through at all!
"What...what exactly happened?" Cao Yanhua's face was pale, and his clothes were soaked with sweat.
It was at this moment that Cao Yanhua suddenly remembered the reminder Chang Jingtai had given him a few days earlier.
At that time, Chang Jingtai said very seriously, "Boss Cao, let me remind you, that Ms. Xi Yao is not simple. You'd better put away your improper thoughts about her, otherwise you will definitely regret it for the rest of your life."
Cao Yanhua initially didn't take it seriously, thinking that Chang Jingtai was just trying to scare him.
But now he finally realized that he had really kicked a hornet's nest this time!
"Boss, what do we do?" Sun Jian asked in a panic.
Cao Yanhua gritted his teeth and said, "Come with me. We'll go apologize to Ms. Xi Yao now. There's definitely still a chance for things to turn around!"
After saying that, Cao Yanhua strode towards Xi Yao's office.
In the office, Ye Feng sat on the sofa, leisurely sipping his tea.
Seeing Cao Yanhua return with his bodyguards, drenched in sweat, Ye Feng said indifferently, "You know you were wrong?"
Cao Yanhua gritted his teeth and said, "I was wrong just now, and I apologize to you and Ms. Xi Yao. I swear that I will never bother Ms. Xi Yao again. As soon as we leave this building, I will immediately return to Tiandong City and never set foot in Zhongzhou City again!"
"That's more like it."
Ye Feng put down his teacup, waved his hand, and said, "Alright, you can get out of here now."
Cao Yanhua, accompanied by bodyguards, came out of the office and took the elevator once again.
When he saw the lobby on the first floor, he breathed a long sigh of relief, and the heart that had been in his throat finally settled back into his chest.
That young man is no ordinary person!
He is definitely a remarkable person with secret skills!
Thinking of this, Cao Yanhua ordered his bodyguards, "What happened here today must not be mentioned to any outsiders. Do you all understand?"
Sun Jian and his bodyguards all knew that this matter was extremely strange, so they quickly nodded in agreement and dared not utter a single word of dissent.
As Cao Yanhua and his group emerged from the Jingtai Pharmaceutical Company building, they looked at the sun in the sky and finally relaxed completely.
"Buy the tickets quickly, we need to leave immediately, we absolutely cannot linger in Zhongzhou City!" Cao Yanhua said quickly.
In the office, Ye Feng said with a smile, "That Cao Yanhua is quite sensible; he's a smart man."
"If he weren't smart, he'd probably be trapped in this building and die," Xi Yao said with a smile.
Ye Feng had only cast a very simple mind-control spell. Cao Yanhua and the others were just ordinary people, so they naturally couldn't break the spell or even detect it.
They were disoriented and unable to escape the confinement.
If Cao Yanhua doesn't back down and doesn't apologize to Ye Feng, he and his bodyguards will definitely be trapped and die in the mind-controlling spell!
"What good things did you find at Tianmen Mountain?" Xi Yao asked.
Xi Yao could tell that Ye Feng had become stronger after going to Binhai City, and Ye Feng went to Binhai City to explore the secrets of Tianmen Mountain, so Ye Feng's increased strength must be related to the secrets of Tianmen Mountain.
"The unusual light of Tianmen Mountain is due to a relatively complex spirit-gathering array within it. The function of that array is to replenish the five spirit pills with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, preventing the pills from losing their effectiveness due to prolonged storage."
"Those pills are none other than the tenth-grade perfect spiritual pill—the Profound Sky Divine Connection Pill!"
Upon hearing Ye Feng's words, Xi Yao's face immediately showed an expression of disbelief.
A tenth-grade perfect elixir is an extremely rare treasure, and even Ye Feng would find it very difficult to refine.
Most importantly, the medicinal materials that can be used to refine a tenth-grade perfect elixir are extremely rare!
"Are you telling the truth?" Xi Yao asked hurriedly.
"Would I joke about something like this? There are five Xuanxiao Tongshen Pills in total. I've already taken one, so there are four left. After we get back today, you, Muqing, and Lingxuan can each take one," Ye Feng said with a smile.
