Chapter 131 That damn tiger is ruining my life Part 2
The next morning everybody slowly sobered up and assembled for a group meeting of sorts.
The Ninth gate lackeys who had trashed their place didn't bother touching any of their newly obtained land deeds and other property deeds. Almost everything was intact.
They probably let it be to set up a trap for anyone who tried to get them back. But in the end, it worked out to the benefit of Su Lin and others.
Runyan quickly self volunteered and took charge of the industrial unit set up for their cosmetic products.
She and Su Lin had hand made about a thousand of these products and so she clearly had an idea about the formula and the general overview of the manufacturing process.
Besides, Su Lin had previously drawn up detailed designs and intricate plans for the industrial unit, so all Runyan had to do was oversee all the purchases and the engineering placements.
But this in itself was an enormous task.
And also coupled with other tasks like the assembly line, supply chain, and the miscellaneous nitty-gritty things, Runyan's workload was sufficiently huge.
Ensuring that everything was settled, Su Lin proceeded to the next part of their plan.
No matter how much these guys joked and messed around, Su Lin knew that they were still tormented by the thoughts of their toxic pasts.
When it comes to cultivation, the lingering fears and the inner demons have to be dealt with swiftly and cleanly.
Else the progress might be hampered and worse, the foundation would probably be weak.
Panda and Koala were sitting next to Su Lin and furiously tapping their modified laptops.
Within a span of months, their job description had been completely turned around.
The duo who had been meticulously hiding their presence and skillfully evading the ninth gate were now openly leaving trails.
Hiding from the ninth gate was difficult, but it looked like finding them was more difficult.
After several minutes, Panda finally looked up from his computer screen and signaled to Su Lin, "Master, there seems to be a private auction happening next week in Iceland, with invites only handed out to the top 0.1%."
"This auction is usually also a networking event and happens annually. They mainly want similar minded people, more importantly, with a similar status to meet and mingle."
"The items for sale are interesting as well, with every single auction piece rated at millions of dollars."
"There are rumors going around that this time there might be some unique healing elixirs up for sale. Someone from the ninth gate should definitely be there."
"Healing elixirs?" Su Lin furrowed her brows.
Could it be that someone else was also practicing the alchemic arts of potion brewing and pill concocting?
"Interesting. I definitely want to go there." Su Lin replied with a smirk on her face.
"Great. Should we all head there, Master?" Panda asked, waiting for instructions from Su Lin for their next step.
"Hmm... Not necessary. I can go there by myself."
Panda was about to refute, but Su Lin nodded her head resolutely.
"I still don't want to expose all our cards out in the open. Let it be a secret that you guys have condensed soul cores as well."
"Besides we need more people here to assist Runyan and Squirrel in setting up our cosmetic industry manufacturing unit and the associated herb farms."
While Su Lin was busily discussing with Panda and Koala, Luther winked at Monkey and was busily giving out his own explanation and epilogue in the back.
"Please understand losers. My wifey intends to go on this honeymoon trip, with just us and no third wheels. Don't try to act smart and intrude on our special plans."
"This Squirrel is my most potent nemesis. In the name of medicinal education, he better not tag along! Hmph." Luther stared daggers at Squirrel who was sitting near the front, with his back facing toward Luther.
Monkey could only pitifully smile in return. This brother of his was definitely daydreaming. A typical example of all talk and no action!
Luther didn't stop and kept chattering about some intricate details of what he wanted to do, how he was going to unleash his godly skills and so on, when Monkey couldn't hold it any longer and retorted back.
"Brother, forget about the other things. Have you first kissed our master? Like ever?"
These few words struck Luther like lightning bolts. He immediately slumped back engrossed in his own thoughts about this huge predicament.
His wifey didn't seem like the romantic type. She is always busy with either this or that.
Their marriage was also a simple contract, and a simple certificate, with no ceremonies or what so ever.
Though he was sure that the woman loved him, there still seemed to be some sort of distance between them.
Sometimes, this distance scared him and suffocated him. There were too many things that they didn't know about each other.
Both of their pasts were shrouded in mysteries, hers more so than his. And that created a chasm between them.
Sometimes... Just sometimes... She even looked a little lonely and sad, though they were all right there with her.
More importantly, they hadn't progressed at all in any of the romantic avenues!! No romantic dates, no candlelight dinners, and no wedding nights!
How on the earth should he coax his darling money grubber to act more like a woman in love?
Monkey saw the pained expression of his brother immediately felt bad for throwing out words without thinking.
He quickly consoled him, "Brother. Don't worry. Master definitely loves you. I mean she is hunting Ninth gate just to get revenge for you."
"Hmmm... That does sound convincing." Luther nodded his head absent-mindedly. But that was that and this was this.
A strange light shone in his eyes. He was filled to the brim with determination.
The Iceland trip was a golden opportunity presented to him by the heavens themselves! He should work hard on this trip and definitely sweep this woman's feet off the floor.
More importantly, he had to knock that damn tiger off its pedestal and occupy all the available slots in Su Lin's heart.
Luther loudly chuckled lost in his own dreams, and everyone including Su Lin turned back and looked at him.
Monkey sitting next to Luther quickly shrugged his shoulders and moved away, to show that he was not related to this lunatic.
Luther on the other hand ignored the turned heads and continued making up detailed plans in his head.
Worry lines covered his devilishly handsome face.
How to seduce and tie-down an almighty cultivator? This was indeed going to be a difficult task...
