Chronicles of Celestial Origins

Du Yuankai was sitting cross-legged on the futon when there was a knock on the door.

He opened his eyes and said calmly: "Come in."

Outside, a beautiful woman with a waist and fat buttocks, a face like a peach blossom, and skin like gelatin pushed the door in. It was Xu Qingwan.

"Fellow Daoist Xu is here, sit down! What's going on?"

Xu Qingwan sat down as she was told, flipped it with her left hand and took out a file: "This is this year's financial statement. So far, the funding spirit stone has been used up."

Du Yuankai took a look at the file and sighed slightly: "It's not time to apply for the funding subsidy yet, so let's do this! We'll owe the disciples spiritual stones for now, and wait until we receive the funds next time."

Xu Qingwan said: "Last time, Immortal Du said that he would be transferred back to the sect and sent another Immortal Envoy from the Supreme Sect to take charge. I don't know what happened? When will Immortal Du leave? Does this site need to make any preparations? ?”

Du Yuankai said: "This matter has been put on hold for the time being. There is no suitable candidate in this department, and the sect rejected the appointment."

………………

Time flies, and half a year has passed in the blink of an eye.

During this period of time, the Intelligence Department has held more than a dozen meetings on a regular basis. The conflict between Tang Ning and Lu Guang has become increasingly acute. From finance to disciple personnel, they often argue in court and challenge each other in the main hall. Everyone in the entire intelligence department knew about it and there was a lot of discussion.

He even alarmed Yin Qingyuan and called the two of them to admonish him.

Sometimes during a meeting, the two of them would argue for half an hour on an issue, with no one willing to give in.

………………

Tang Ning walked out of the alchemy room and fled all the way back to the cave. He lay down on the stone bed and fell asleep with even breathing in a short time. He stayed in the alchemy room for seven days, and his spiritual power and consciousness were greatly depleted, so he fell asleep. Then fell asleep.

These days, he spent more and more time in the alchemy room, often lasting several days and nights. He even instilled the immortal mother-of-pearl clam in the alchemy room.

The Strengthening Pill was still not successfully refined, and there was no change in the Immortal Pearl Clam. After half a year's work, I just practiced several thousand more Vitality Pills.

When she woke up the next day, Tang Ning stretched out and felt refreshed. She left the room and walked away in the form of light. Not long after, she came to a cave mansion. With a wave of her hand, the talisman sank into the room.

Soon, a ray of light flashed out from inside, revealing the figure of a thin man with a broad forehead and broad face. It was Xu Yuan. He bowed his head and said, "Senior Brother Tang, why are you here? Come in quickly."

The two of them entered the cave and sat opposite each other. Tang Ning took out six bottles of elixirs and handed them to him, saying, "These are some elixirs that I have refined recently. The last few bottles must have been used up by Junior Brother Xu, so I give them to you." Send it.”

Xu Yuan took the elixir: "It's such a small matter, why bother Senior Brother Tang to go there in person? I feel so ashamed. Senior Brother Tang can just send someone to say hello, and I'll go get it myself."

"I have nothing to do. I haven't thanked you for what happened last time. Thank you to Junior Brother Xu for your support, otherwise the financial reform plan I launched would not have been implemented so quickly."

"They are all working for the sect, so why should I say thank you? The plan implemented by Senior Brother Tang is for the overall interests of the department, both public and private. I have no reason to object." Xu Yuan put away the elixir, turned it over in his hand, and He took out seventy-two middle-grade spiritual stones from his storage bag and handed them to him.

Tangning took the spirit stones and gave him eighteen more: "You won't need so many."

"Senior Brother Tang, what do you mean by this?" Xu Yuan asked as he took the spirit stone.

Tang Ning said: "Each Vitality Pill is forty spirit stones. That's the price to outsiders. For us, thirty spirit stones is enough. I'll charge the cost price. To be honest with you, I've always charged Junior Brother Zhao Liheng the same price." Thirty spiritual stones, but don’t tell anyone else, otherwise you won’t be able to save your face.”

"I understand. Thank you very much, Senior Brother Tang."

"Next step, I am going to make some adjustments to the industries outside the sect. I hope that Junior Brother Xu can continue to support me."

Xu Yuan frowned slightly: "What does Senior Brother Tang mean?"

Tang Ning said: "Our department has a share of some lofts, gambling houses and shops outside the sect. In the past, this spiritual stone fund was only shared by the deacon, the steward responsible for the specific affairs of the department, and the steward responsible for the finance. I I don’t think this is very fair. Since it is the ministry’s finances, it must be managed by the ministry.”

"I decided to take over this finance and redistribute it in a four-three-three way."

Xu Yuan said: "How many spiritual stones are unknown?"

"Almost thirty thousand spirit stones every year."

Xu Yuan nodded and said, "Just follow Senior Brother Tang's instructions."

The two chatted for a while before Tangning said goodbye and left.

……………………

Pingjin Mountain is located in the southeastern part of South China. It has steep mountains and rugged rocks. There are apes picking fruits in the mountain streams and white cranes perched on the cliffs.

On the top of the thousand-foot peak, there is a majestic and majestic attic. On the plaque are engraved four shining golden characters, which is Pingjinshan Gambling House.

Two figures in the distance came with flying swords and stopped in front of the attic of the gambling house.

The two of them were dressed in Qian Yizong costumes. One had a round face and big ears, and the other had a thin figure.

The two of them entered the inner room, and a beautiful-looking woman came up to them: "Fellow Taoist Mo, you are here. Who is this fellow Taoist?"

"This is Senior Brother from the Department of the Headquarters." The man surnamed Mo introduced: "Fellow Daoist Pan, everything is ready!"

"Two fellow Taoists, please come with me!" the woman said, leading the two of them up to the third floor of the attic and into a room. She pulled out a file and handed it to the man surnamed Mo: "Fellow Taoist, please sign here. A letter!"

The man surnamed Mo took the file, signed it as a bond, and returned it to her.

The woman pulled out a storage bag and said, "Five thousand spiritual stones are here. Fellow Taoist Mo will take a look."

The man surnamed Mo took the storage bag, clicked it once, stood up and said, "Thank you, Fellow Daoist Pan. I'll go back and answer your orders later."

After that, the two of them left together, exited the attic, and flew away with flying swords.

……………………

In the Zhongzhi Peak Cave Mansion, Zhang Qian hurried in and bowed to Lu Guang who was sitting cross-legged on the futon: "Master, something happened."

Lu Guang said: "What's going on? Why are you in such a hurry?"

Zhang Qandao: "Senior Brother Xu told me just now that all the spiritual stones turned in by the properties outside our sect have been taken away."

Lu Guang's face darkened: "Who did it?"

"I have found out clearly that Uncle Tang ordered people to do it, including Qingxiao Tower and Xiangshan Gambling House in Jiangdong, Pingjin Gambling House, Wanyanshan Shop in South China, and Wanxiu Tower and Qianyuan Shop in South China. All the spiritual stones that occupied the property were taken away by the people he sent. "

"It's unreasonable, it's too much to bully others." Lu Guang was furious, and in a flash, he left the room, and after a short walk, he came to the meeting hall.

The disciples on duty in front of the hall saw him and quickly bowed and saluted, calling him Master Lu.

"Go and call Tangning for me immediately." Lu Guangyin shouted in a low voice.

The two of them looked at each other, bowed their heads and said yes, then flew into the air with their flying swords.

……………………………………………………

Tang Ning was sitting cross-legged in the cave. Suddenly, the storage bag on his waist shook. He took out the formation plate, pointed it at it, took the talisman into his hand, and then left the cave in a flash.

Outside the thick fog, two disciples saw him disappearing from the light and quickly saluted: "Disciple pays homage to Master Uncle. Master Lu, please go to the meeting hall immediately."

"Am I the only one?"

"yes."

Tangning nodded and without asking any more questions, the light flew up and came to the hall.

Lu Guang took the high seat with a gloomy face.

Tangning walked straight to the first seat on the left and sat down. She looked at Lu Guang and said, "What can I do?"

"Did you send people to collect the spiritual stones from the shops outside the sect?"

"yes."

"Where's the spirit stone?"

"Here I am."

"Bang." Lu Guang suddenly slammed the desk and said angrily: "Tangning, what right do you have to confiscate those spiritual stones privately?"

Tang Ning's expression remained unchanged: "I am the inspector of this department and have the authority to investigate and deal with all affairs of the department, including of course the assets outside the sect. What's the problem?"

"You secretly confiscated those spirit stones without permission. What exactly do you want to do?"

"These spiritual stones belong to the ministry. I think the previous distribution plan was unreasonable. From now on, I will take over this part of the finance and distribute it in the same four-three-three way."

Lu Guang stood up after snapping the case and shouted: "Tangning, don't go too far. I am the deacon of this department, and I make the final decision on the affairs of the Intelligence Department. The department's finances are not allocated how you say."

Tang Ning said: "Although you are a deacon, the decision is not yours in the Intelligence Department. If you think there is something wrong with my approach, you can report it to the court or directly to the headmaster. I will raise this matter at the next meeting. If you If you don’t agree, then let’s wait for the sect’s decision!”

Lu Guang was furious, staring at Tang Ning, his eyes seemed to be bursting with fire, and said word by word: "Do you think there is nothing I can do against you?"

"Have you?" Tangning raised her lips slightly and said sarcastically: "Are you going to accuse me of leaking information and colluding with the Demon Sect? Or are you going to apply for a transfer order from Qingxuan Palace? If you had other ideas, you wouldn't be like a common man here. Let’s yell!”

"Lv Guang! You only have this little ability to use dirty tricks and dirty tricks."

“If I were you, I wouldn’t say these useless things.

"Can Mr. Tang be frightened by a few words from you?"

"If there's nothing else, I'll leave first."

After that, Tangning stood up and walked out. Halfway there, she paused and said, "Oh, and don't ask me to come over if you have nothing to do in the future. I'm very busy."

Lu Guang watched him go further and further away until his figure disappeared. He clenched his fists and kicked the desk in front of him to pieces with a bang. He walked out of the hall and returned to the cave in the ethereal light.

Zhou Yingxue was shocked when she saw the angry look on his face. This was the first time she saw him like this in so many years, and she said worriedly: "Husband, what's wrong? What happened?"

"Tangning, this bastard bastard, is intolerable. I will never back down again this time."
