Chapter 156: Chapter 117: Lies Don’t Hurt, the Truth Is a Swift Blade
They all thought Li Chang’an had been scamd.
After all, if a Cluster Cannon with such paraters truly existed, it would have already sent shockwaves through the entire arms industry. How could it possibly remain unknown until now?
Hearing everyone chi in with their warnings, Li Chang’an frowned. "I calibrated these paraters myself. If I say they’re correct, they’re correct. I want you to start assembly imdiately. I’ve already purchased all the necessary equipnt!"
He paused, revealing the stern deanor of a City Lord and a Reincarnator, then continued, "A few days ago, Chairman Su reminded
that this Exotic Beast Tide will be massive, possibly unlike any before. Therefore, I expect you to assemble all of these city defense weapons as quickly as possible!"
Seeing that Li Chang’an seed angry, the group of young people wisely shut their mouths.
Nevertheless, when they heard that the weapon blueprints and paraters had been personally calibrated by Li Chang’an, their hearts couldn’t help but skip a beat.
’Isn’t the Lord of Cangxuan City a Martial Artist?’
’Why is he dabbling in the arms industry?’
’Can sothing a Martial Artist tinkers with actually do more than just make a loud noise?’
They were deeply skeptical.
But because Li Chang’an clearly disliked their questioning, no one dared to speak up, even though their minds were racing with doubts.
They each picked up the blueprints and went to work.
...
...
After laying out all the important matters for the munitions factory, Li Chang’an didn’t linger.
He was the City Lord; his job was to manage the big picture.
If he had to worry about every little detail himself even after recruiting people, he would just end up with a group of useless layabouts who were good for nothing but eating.
Li Chang’an was certainly not willing to let that happen.
Thus, he preferred to be a hands-off manager and let his subordinates figure things out for themselves.
He was willing to accept so losses in the process. As long as they could get through the troubleso initial phase, things would be much easier later on.
He returned to the City Lord’s Mansion.
To prepare for the imminent Exotic Beast Tide, Li Chang’an decided against reincarnating again. Instead, he opened his Rebirth Mark, planning to spend so Rebirth Points on a few Martial Dao evolution systems from the Main World.
The Main World had a vast number of Martial Dao Reincarnators.
As a result, the paths of Martial Dao evolution were quite nurous and varied.
Many of the Cultivation Techniques among them were the cream of the crop.
Li Chang’an had used his Heaven-defying Comprehension to create the Nine Heavens Chaos Technique, which could accommodate a thousand Laws and ten thousand Daos. Given the opportunity, it was always a good idea to absorb more Martial Arts Techniques and combat skills.
He expertly opened the trading channel and once again posted a pinned thread, stating his desire to purchase Tier Three or higher Martial Arts Techniques and combat skills.
Unlike his previous acquisition of military weapons.
The pinned post to buy Cultivation Techniques and combat skills received far more replies—so many that Li Chang’an couldn’t possibly read through them all at once. He had to use the search function to filter out so of the irrelevant information.
After about fifteen minutes, Li Chang’an had purchased over a dozen Martial Dao evolution path Cultivation Techniques.
However, just as he was about to close the mark and begin his secluded cultivation, Su Ruobing suddenly sent him a ssage through her Rebirth Mark: "I think I forgot to add you to the group chat. Accept the invitation quickly!"
Not long after the ssage arrived,
Li Chang’an noticed a small red dot on the personal information tab of his Rebirth Mark. He tapped on it and saw a notification: *Su Ruobing has invited you to join the ’Linjiang Reincarnator Association’ group chat!*
After a mont’s hesitation, Li Chang’an chose to accept.
As soon as he entered the group chat, it started buzzing with notifications.
Qian Zhong (Blood Shadow City): "Oh, a newcor?"
Deng Ankang (Fire Lion City): "And a newcor personally invited by Chairman Su. @Su Ruobing, aren’t you going to properly introduce our new friend to everyone, Chairman?"
Ji Fulin (Donglan City): "Strange, hasn’t it been a few months since the reincarnation assessnt? Why is this person only joining the group chat now? Did Chairman Su forget about him?"
Qian Zhong (Blood Shadow City): "He was probably delayed by sothing. Chairman Su surely wouldn’t forget sothing so important."
Deng Ankang (Fire Lion City): "Exactly. Let’s have the Chairman give a proper introduction. We’re about to face another Exotic Beast Tide, and this new little brother is inexperienced. He’ll probably need so help from us!"
Ji Fulin (Donglan City): "Hahaha, how rare! For Chairman Su, who’s famous for being so diligent, to make a mistake at work. She didn’t rember she forgot to add a newcor to the group until she was just about to post the bounties for the Exotic Beasts!"
Deng Ankang (Fire Lion City): "..."
Qian Zhong (Blood Shadow City): "..."
Su Ruobing (Linjiang City): "..."
Lies don’t hurt people; the truth is a sharp blade.
Because Li Chang’an had entered the Reincarnator Association through a special admission, and because she had been busy with recruitnt and the Martial Arts True Understanding 1.0 Version around that ti, Su Ruobing had far too much on her plate.
So, she really had forgotten all about Li Chang’an.
It wasn’t until today, when Su Ruobing was preparing to post the Exotic Beast bounty missions, that she was stunned to discover Li Chang’an wasn’t in the group chat yet.
Exposed and now furious from the embarrassnt, Su Ruobing @’d Ji Fulin from Donglan City and said, "Ji, I seem to recall you ntioning a while back that your Ice Magic had hit a bottleneck? If you have ti tomorrow, co by the Linjiang Reincarnator Association. I’ll help you loosen up those limbs!"
Ji Fulin (Donglan City): "...Chairman Su, a Tier Seven Fire Mage offering to loosen up the limbs of a Tier Four Ice Mage... why does that sound a little strange?"
Everyone else in the group chat imdiately went silent, not daring to make a peep.
Ji was famous in the group for being dense, and he had a penchant for undermining others and getting caught up in trivialities. He had just offended Su Ruobing and was on the brink of disaster, but the guy was completely oblivious.
