Fall For Me

Jun just smiles for a bit like he was unaffected by the impending pressure. If not for his dad protecting him the pressure might have just crushed his mortal body.

"President Xuan I don"t want to be a nag but don"t you think you are taking advantage of my father?" Jun questioned him. "I can let go of many things such as the disrespect, and blunt statements but you really are going overboard. Elder Ning here has put in great efforts to refine these ores into a 80 percent purity crystal here and you aren"t even willing to be respectful toward his skills. This is but a direct slap to the face on all of us."

President Xuan"s face consorted in an ugly way as he inserted his heaven realm pressure onto Jun too. But Jun merely scoff it off since it was 10 times weaker than his a.s.sistants. Also he has both Elder Ning and his dad protecting him.

"Business is just like that. Your father wanted 30 why would I purposely increase it to 31, 32, 33, 40 percent or more for him? He can"t blame me but his own incompetence. Furthermore why would I even need your father or any of these companies when I can poach your elder Ning directly," Xuan retorted.

"I trust the people I work with but President Xuan I can take many insults but for you to say that directly right in my face! Are you asking for a fight?" Tian said glaringly.

"Hahaha! A fight? A would be between two equals. It just be bullying if I fight you. Elder Ning would you be willing to join our mining corp? Not only will we offer you money but also cultivation resources and heritage."

Even Elder Ning who is deeply loyal swayed for a sec as his cultivation has been stagnant for many years and have tried to find many ways to increase it.

"Thank you for the offer but I am happy where I currently am," Elder Ning replied.

"Imbecile," the a.s.sistant mutter under his breath but it was loud enough for everyone to hear.

"I say why is everyone getting so worked up for?" Jun asks as he relaxingly sat in chair playing around with the crystal.

Everyone wanted to shout can"t you see what you started at Jun for his flippant att.i.tude but found it pretty low to shout it out. Especially when Jun looks like he was just here to play around.

"President Xuan my father and I don"t really care much about your respect and other sh*t but we don"t like to be taken advantage of. I"ll put down and offer for you and you can decide whether you will take it or not. Fifty fifty based on market value."

"Kid you"re really funny," President Xuan laughs. "50/50? Why the h.e.l.l would I agree to that?"

"Now I also the slag that is left behind by the refinement."

"You"re really funny kid." Xuan chuckles. "Like I said why in the h.e.l.l would I agree to such a deal?"

"Normally you wouldn"t but you are not the boss of this operation. You still report to someone. Even at fifty fifty you still make 43% more than working with the top company in this region. So from a business standpoint and for any smart person they would agree," Jun explained while emphasizing the word smart. The reason Jun said it that way is because it will make others think that if they don"t agree to it they would be stupid instead of smart.

"You think I am not the boss of this team?

"Boss?" Jun questions smirkingly. "You might be the boss here but you still answer to someone higher. I know you don"t have the power or ability to have complete control over this corporation. You not only have to answer to the board of directors but also your backers. What would happen if they somehow learn that you did not choose my dad"s company out of spite and personal vengeance. You can act as high and might as you want here but your a.s.sistant here is the real boss. I have felt both of your heaven realm pressure and your a.s.sistant"s is like a thousand feet tsunami while your"s. Hahaha is but a mere one hundred feet. Like a child before an adult."

The so call president Xuan quivered slightly in front of Jun. Why is it that he whose in the heaven"s realm felt like a newly graduated college student in front of his employer.

Jun looks at the a.s.sistant. "Now can we stop the act and get down to business? My time is important and even if your G.o.d I wouldn"t waste on you. I"ll give you a time of 10 minutes to decide."

"Hahaha Tian your kid has sharp eyes," the a.s.sistant said confidently. "I now see why you wanted to test him."

"If he is going to take over my company one day he needs to be at the minimum this sharp," Tian laughs too at his son"s performance.

"A bit of death seeker through," the a.s.sistance smiles teasingly. "Jun was it? My name is Da Ti you can call me Boss Ti."

Jun finally caught on to what was going on. He knew his father couldn"t be this stupid in dealing with businesses but he had to his admit their act is pretty good. Even with his soul eyes activated he couldn"t catch anything.

"Boss Ti while I am sure that you can my dad had already come to a deal long ago. I would still like to ask whether you will accept my deal or not."

"Normally no. Our expenses are higher and while 80 percent is higher a lot less people are able to afford it therefore sales wouldn"t be as high as 70 percent. Business isn"t all about having the highest quality. Sometimes lower quality makes more money but high quality is equal to prestige that no money can buy. It is a balancing act. Your father and I have agreed to a six four split. Since 80 percent can only be sold to sects, and prestige clans."


While they were talking "President" Xuan and Boss Ti swap places.

"I want to add the slags left behind by the refinement. Usually they are used for nourishing plant but transportation are still pretty costly. Market value for 1 pound of slag is 45 qi stones. This is usually adding transportation, advertis.e.m.e.nt and other costs so if whatever we refine and slag left over and you leave it as be we do not need to add the overhead into the market value. Therefore I propose you sell it to us at 30 qi stones a pound." Jun countered.

"You have a deal then."

After going over the final details they left the building.

"You did good son," Xing Tian praised.

For the first time ever Jun felt his father"s praise. There was a sense of accomplishment that can"t be described. Those were words that he strived forever to hear and heard it for the first time. Little did Jun know but those words secretly destroyed an inner demon.

"Thanks," Jun murmured but deep down he still felt immensely proud.

Argh! Jun felt a head splitting headache attack. He suddenly blacked out again. This time he regained consciousness in a cold dark cave.

Jun shook his head to get rid of the weariness. Huh? I"m back in this cave again? Standing before him was the Ancestor Tian and Ancestor Long statue. In the middle was the laptop with the Black Empyrean and White Fiend-G.o.d method.

"Does that mean I pa.s.s the test?" Jun shouted out loud.

…

There were no responses. Jun shrugs his shoulder and walked forward to retrieve the laptop. A forcefield like wall stopped him in his tracks.

"Do I have to break this wall as a final test?" Jun asks himself quietly. "Worth a try."

Jun used his soul to gather the Dao of Fire and Lightning and used it to attack the forcefield to no avail. It was like throwing tofu on a rock or a rock into the ocean. Not even a ripple appeared.

"Son it is useless. No matter how hard you try it will not break. Even a team of Heaven Realm experts will need to attack in for 50 years before they can drain it"s energy away."

This cold voice belongs to his father.

"Dad what are you doing here?" Jun asks turning around. He knew that the events from earlier were illusions.

"I was the one who Bu Fan where this place was. Why wouldn"t I be here to watch you?"

"From the way you"re talking it seems like you have a method to break through the forcefield."

"I do but it will be a high price for you to pay."

"As long as I can get my cultivation back I am willing."

Jun saw his dad smile mockingly and he made a hand motion in the air. Then the body of a girl appeared in his arms.

He stared at the girl. "Xintong?"

"Kill her and use her blood as sacrifice to open up the forcefield. The final test is not about power but will. Do you have the will to sacrifice everything for your path to success."

Tian made another hand motion and the ground dented in. There was a special pattern on the ground that const.i.tutes to a formation with the center being the place for the sacrifice. Tian placed this girls body in the center and came back to stand behind Jun.

"Son you have a choice before you now. Sacrifice the girl and restore your strength or forever be a mortal and a disappointment to me."

Jun felt like his brain was in a complete mess. This was the first time he felt this way. Not even when death was in his face did he feel like this.

"Huh? Xing Lin? Xing Jun?" Xintong questions confused as she just woke. This only caused Jun to be hit with an even harder mental blow as the decision became that much harder.
