You dare to cultivate without money?!-Chapter 1109 - 774: (Part 3)
Capítulo 1109: Chapter 774: (Part 3)
Sure, here’s the translation:
After concluding the conversation with Starfire True Monarch and Zhang Pianpian, Zhang Yu thought to himself: “It seems that Gu Qingya is the only suitable candidate.”
…
A few days later, in Gu Qingya’s office.
Looking at the review materials sent by Zhang Yu, Gu Qingya initially seemed a bit inattentive.
He wondered why Zhang Yu brought the documents for him to see? After all, he wasn’t Zhang Yu’s direct superior.
Could it be that my previous guidance influenced him? Does he know to pay respect now?
Thinking of this, Gu Qingya nodded slightly, feeling that this was indeed fitting.
“We Lower Realm People should have an open mind in the sect. When life gives us a slap, think about whether it’s less painful than last time. When encountering someone who can defeat us, try to avoid their blows.”
But as he delved deeper into the materials, his gaze grew slightly more serious.
Looking up, Gu Qingya faced Zhang Yu and asked: “Did you review this yourself?”
After experiencing the matter of the Refining God Technique, Gu Qingya had come to greatly trust Zhang Yu’s judgment. Seeing the firm nod from Zhang Yu, he knew that this document was most likely accurate.
Gu Qingya internally sighed: “Some matters weigh few ounces when not on the scale, but once weighed, they can reach thousands of pounds.”
“The issue with Xiao Zhi might not have significant results normally.”
“But now… it’s just right to join forces with Luo Wujie to counter Lu Hengzhang.”
“If I leverage Xiao Zhi’s issue to first suppress Lu Hengzhang, once Luo Wujie is removed, perhaps I might also have a chance to become Minister of Review Department.”
With this thought, Gu Qingya marked Zhang Yu on his friend’s list for special attention.
At this moment, Zhang Yu, in his eyes, had ceased to be a mere “Lone Wolf” and transformed into a “Leader Candidate,” eligible to receive direct mentorship from higher leadership.
“If he truly aids me in accomplishing this, I wouldn’t mind… engaging in Dual Cultivation with him, broadening his Immortal Road.”
In Gu Qingya’s view, when a leader is willing to engage in Dual Cultivation with you, it truly means taking you as one of his own—both a reward and a form of trust.
After considering, Gu Qingya continued: “Is there anything else?”
Zhang Yu nodded and said: “Yes, at least it can be proven that there are audit issues with 10 Martial Arts on Xiao Zhi’s hands.”
Gu Qingya raised his brows: “Did you audit all these in the last couple of days?”
Seeing Zhang Yu nod, Gu Qingya smiled slightly and said: “What do you want?”
Zhang Yu replied: “After Xiao Zhi steps down, I want to be team leader.”
Gu Qingya frowned: “Too eager; as they say, haste makes waste. The more urgently you want something, the pricier it becomes.”
“You’ve just been promoted to the second-level position, so why the rush? If you’re willing to lay low for more years, this merit could be exchanged for many things.”
Seeing Zhang Yu still insist, Gu Qingya shook his head, thinking that Zhang Yu was still too impatient, lowering his evaluation of him by several points.
He thought to himself: “Well then, I’ll assist you this once, but won’t reward you with Dual Cultivation. You truly don’t know what a huge opportunity you’re missing.” 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮
Gu Qingya thought for a moment and said: “Alright then. I’ll think of a way to have people recommend you as a candidate for Acting Group Leader of Martial Arts Group One. However, whether you succeed or not will depend on the status of other recommenders and the final position adaptability verification results.”
…
A few days later, the group leader of Martial Arts Group One, Xiao Zhi, looked despondently at the notice before him.
His audit has issues?
Of course, he knew his audit had problems; indeed, in his eyes, when in Yufa Pavilion’s Martial Arts copyright audit, was there ever a year without problems?
In his view, having issues was alright, but it’s when someone actually uncovers them that it really matters.
“Gu Qingya!”
Reciting Gu Qingya’s name in his mind, Xiao Zhi knew that this time Gu Qingya had pulled Luo Wujie into unveiling the matter at the meeting.
“That scoundrel, to compete internally, he bullies a lowly Sect Affairs Officer like me.”
Thinking of this, Xiao Zhi hurriedly went to find Vice Minister Lu Hengzhang.
“Divine Monarch!” Xiao Zhi had barely begun when a divine light from Lu Hengzhang descended, sealing his voice.
Lu Hengzhang spoke coldly: “First, go find those audited parties in person and explain things to them; calm them down.”
Xiao Zhi said with an ugly expression: “What if explanations don’t clear things up?”
Lu Hengzhang responded coldly: “Apologize, soothe, give money… Use any method you can think of to minimize the impact.”
Xiao Zhi pleaded: “What happens when the investigation team comes? Divine Monarch, you have to help me.”
Lu Hengzhang snorted, saying: “Help you? I’m just the Vice Minister, not the Pavilion Master! Besides, so many issues with Martial Arts being caught wouldn’t be easily overlooked, even by the Pavilion Master.”
Xiao Zhi urgently said: “I was rushing to approve some Martial Arts you requested, so the report wasn’t solid enough. But it’s not easy for them to find errors. Have they been planning this, looking to get you?”
“Planning ahead?” Lu Hengzhang snorted and said: “These Martial Arts were reviewed by Zhang Yu, likely within the last few days, without spending too much time.”
Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhi’s gaze sharpened: “Zhang Yu? Is that kid trying to get me?”
Seeing his agitated state, Lu Hengzhang said coolly: “So what if you know? Alright, go do as I said. In a few days, the investigation team will come too. Admit you were momentarily careless, making a mistake while rushed for performance—take full responsibility…”
Xiao Zhi’s face looked grim: “After admitting everything… what about my group leader position…”
