Chapter 737: I'm Looking for a Bodyguard, Not a Wife
"Xiao Yun!" Tang Rao shook his head, it looks like he couldn't count on the two fools, Lu Jun and Fan Xiaohua, this time.
"Boom!" Upon hearing Tang Rao's call, Xiao Yun didn't utter a word of nonsense and directly struck a palm towards the wall where the painting was hanging.
Lu Jun was a little correct, the painting indeed had an issue.
However, it wasn't that the painting held intrinsic meaning, but that the painting itself was a surveillance portal. Someone was using it to monitor this room.
Although Tang Rao wasn't here to discuss anything secretive, he still disliked the feeling of being watched.
Xiao Yun was at the ninth level of Luo Xian Realm. With a single palm strike, the entire wall crumbled to pieces, and two people appeared within the sight of Tang Rao and the others.
One was Fang Yuan, and the other, someone he hadn't seen before.
Another woman who looked to be in her thirties, with an extremely lovely face and delicate features, plus a beauty mark near the corner of her eye, adding enchantment to her appearance.
The woman was wearing a black robe with golden trimming that resembled that of Wen Shan, outlining her figure nearly perfectly.
There was also a mature womanly aura about her that was overwhelmingly intense.
Tang Rao could responsibly say that out of ten men, if their preferences weren't an issue, all ten would have some degree of desire upon seeing this woman.
It was as if this woman was born to bewitch men.
Upon seeing Tang Rao and the others, apart from some surprise, the woman's eyes showed little other emotion, and even a smile slowly appeared on her face.
"Miss, doing this isn't very nice, is it?" Fang Yuan looked somewhat displeased and said with a darkened face.
Smashing the wall like that was excessively rude.
"Not very nice? You install a surveillance portal in the wall, and that's fine?" Tang Rao looked at Fang Yuan, his face filled with annoyance.
"That's because..."
"Alright, you can leave now," the woman interrupted Fang Yuan.
"Yes." Fang Yuan nodded, responded, and then left the room.
"Mr. Tang, please have a seat," the woman beckoned Tang Rao to sit after Fang Yuan left.
"Oh? You know me?" Tang Rao asked.
"Of course. Mr. Tang handled a Gold Card on his first visit to Bounty Hall; naturally, I had to pay attention. By the way, you can call me Wen Mo, my surname is Zhou."
Tang Rao nodded, gave Zhou Wenmo a glance, and then sat down.
"According to Fang Yuan, Mr. Tang wishes to publish a task with a reward exceeding a hundred million," Zhou Wenmo began, her teeth brilliantly white and her lips a captivating red, parting and closing irresistibly.
Anyone with a slightly weaker willpower might be led around the entire time by Zhou Wenmo.
"Yes, is it possible to publish it here?" Tang Rao asked.
"Of course. Tasks can be published at any time. However, since Mr. Tang's task has a very high reward amount, I believe hosting a task publishing event to spread the news would attract more high-quality Cultivators," Zhou Wenmo said.
"I won't need that; my mom has always told me to keep a low profile," Tang Rao shrugged and said.
"In reality, this matter is bound to be revealed; it will eventually spread. I think we might as well amplify the impact from the get-go. After all, it's a hundred million Immortal Stones, high-level Luo Xian cultivators might even be attracted by it. If Mr. Tang agrees, Wen Mo is willing to plan it for you. Plus, Mr. Tang is young and promising, we could also engage in more exchanges," Zhou Wenmo said.
This woman is formidable.
Tang Rao couldn't help but sigh in his heart, feeling fortunate that he had a strong sense of justice and self-control, otherwise he would have been completely disoriented by Zhou Wenmo.
Engaging in more exchanges, if it were any other man, they would certainly have started to fantasize wildly, and once people begin to fantasize... that's like a cleaver cutting an electric wire, sparks and lightning all the way.
"Amplify the impact? You mean you want to use this opportunity to expand Bounty Hall's influence, right? Wen Mo, although you're very pretty, what you're doing is kind of unsightly," Tang Rao said, looking at Zhou Wenmo. "If this is just your scheme, then I might have to look for a different bounty place."
Zhou Wenmo was extremely surprised in her heart; Tang Rao was completely unaffected by her and remained calm and clever.
She had collaborated with countless men, and each one, to some extent, would be captivated by her beauty. Tang Rao was the first she had encountered that was unaffected.
This guy's mental fortitude was too stout.
"Mr. Tang, Wen Mo offers you an apology," Zhou Wenmo immediately stood up and gave a slight bow, "I actually also wanted to leverage your influence. Since Mr. Tang dislikes it, let's not mention it again. By the way, Mr. Tang, just give me the bounty card, and I'll handle the mission posting for you."
"Mhm." Tang Rao nodded, handing over the bounty card to Zhou Wenmo.
Such a huge Bounty Hall wouldn't just swallow up his hundred million Immortal Stones.
Zhou Wenmo took less than five minutes to complete the mission processing. Tang Rao would pay at any time, and the mission would be posted at any time.
"Mr. Tang, your bounty card," Zhou Wenmo returned the bounty card to Tang Rao, "Mr. Tang, if you don't mind, among the ten guards you're recruiting, can I be one of them?"
Tang Rao was stunned for a moment, looking at Zhou Wenmo in surprise.
"With such a huge financial incentive, I thought about it and ultimately couldn't resist it. I'm thirty-three this year, at the second layer of Luo Xian Realm, which meets the requirements," Zhou Wenmo said.
Does this woman have some sort of scheme? Tang Rao couldn't help but mutter in his heart. It was clear that Zhou Wenmo held a high position in Bounty Hall, at least at the level of a manager.
And with her capabilities, she must be very good at her job, right? Even though his task was worth a hundred million, once it was split up, it was only eighteen to twenty million. Zhou Wenmo didn't need to take risks for these Immortal Stones.
After all, being a guard was somewhat dangerous.
If Tang Rao provoked an Immortal Monarch, then being a Luo Xian cultivator would be utterly useless.
"You shouldn't be lacking that money, right? Are you trying to go undercover? Do you have some kind of scheme?" Tang Rao didn't beat around the bush and directly asked.
Sometimes, one has to be straightforward like that.
"Of course not, I just find Mr. Tang intriguing, and I like to be friends with interesting people. Besides, several million in remuneration is not a small amount for me. Earning money while becoming friends with Mr. Tang, why not?" Zhou Wenmo said with a smile.
"Interesting..." Tang Rao rolled his eyes, "Why don't I find myself interesting? This really is interesting. But if you want to join, then just join. After all, I'm looking for guards, not a wife. As long as the qualifications are solid, I'm very welcoming."
"Then thanks in advance, boss," Zhou Wenmo smiled beautifully, and of course, became even more charming. Those bright, watery eyes almost made Tang Rao's heart flutter.
"By the way, do you know Lu Tianhao?" Tang Rao thought for a moment and asked. Since Zhou Wenmo mentioned becoming friends, it was only proper to show mutual concern.
Tang Rao was very clear about the kind of person Lu Tianhao was; when he was getting his card earlier, he had smacked Lu Tianhao's face so hard it rang out crisply. It would be a surprised if Lu Tianhao didn't seek revenge.
