Harness Cultivator

Lee Tao continued to feast himself with the cuisines on the table while glancing at Zuo Xiaoli occasionally.

"The Jade Restaurant's food is not bad, so why don't you enjoy some?" Lee Tao asked.

"I don't have an appetite." Zuo Xiaoli declined.

How can she still eat when Lee Tao is now practically holding a knife at her throat?

The feeling was extremely disgusting and if she could have killed him, then she wouldn't hesitate.

Unfortunately, she couldn't because not only would she become the prime suspect if Lee Tao had died, but she feared for the mysterious expert in this room.

After all, she still couldn't detect nor tell when they made a move on creating the formation around them.

"I'm being kind here, so eat a piece of chicken," Lee Tao said as he picked up a chicken with his chopsticks and placed it in her bowl.

"I don't like to talk business with an empty stomach and making a woman starve is not my motto either." 

Of course, everything he just said was a lie but he was immersed in his role as a scholar.

A scholar always cares about others' feelings and makes sure they are feeling well, or at least that's what Lee Tao thought.

Zuo Xiaoli pondered for a few moments. Her eyes remained still at the piece of chicken that Lee Tao had picked up for her.

"Come on, I don't have all day here, Zuo Xiaoli." 

Hearing his tone of speech, Zuo Xiaoli finally grabbed a pair of chopsticks as she ate the chicken. 

"Now, that's more like it." Lee Tao praised her as they continued to eat.

Sometime later, Zuo Xiaoli stared at Lee Tao and asked, "So what do you want me to do exactly?"

He doesn't want her body, and besides her body, she really doesn't know what else she had is worth it for Lee Tao to take such drastic measures.

Money? Lee Tao does not lack any, especially after the successful auction event.

Reputation? Lee Tao's reputation is as high as Liu Ying's reputation.

Power? With Liu Ying by his side, what kind of power does Lee Tao lack? 

This was what's going through her mind and honestly, she was correct in the first two points except for the last one.

Lee Tao placed down his chopsticks as he smiled at Zuo Xiaoli. 

"Your underground gang… I want them to capture multiple people and bring them to me." Lee Tao said. 

Zuo Xiaoli wasn't shocked that Lee Tao knew about her secret underground gang.

If her secrets that were kept hidden for so long were easily found out by Lee Tao, she doubts this information is any ground-shattering news.

However, she was confused as to what kind of people he wanted to capture.

"Any specific people?" Zuo Xiaoli asked. 

"As long as they don't have much influence in the Tianyun Kingdom, I can easily have them captured by tonight." She added.

Lee Tao nodded his head.

"I'm glad I chose you. Only a ruthless and decisive person such as you can handle the task without hesitation." Lee Tao praised.

For survivalists, they always knew what options to make. 

Without speaking any more nonsense, Lee Tao threw a list of people for Zuo Xiaoli to see.

"Since I'm not a vile and evil man, I only want you to capture criminals." 

Zuo Xiaoli raised an eyebrow.

The list was full of criminals and their facial appearance along with their current hideout is revealed in each of them.

'S-Such precise details… just how did he manage this?' Zuo Xiaoli was dumbfounded.

After scanning through the list, Zuo Xiaoli was confident she could capture them all. 

Not only could she see their cultivation base, but she could also see their techniques and methods.

With this much information, she can easily send her army out accordingly to capture them. 

"How fast do you want them?"

"No need to rush but it's better to be quick. I don't really have much patience."

"Is this all I have to do?"

Lee Tao flashed a mysterious smile. 

"Let me ask you this instead, Zuo Xiaoli. Would you let someone go easily after going through meticulous research on that person's dirt?" 

"..."

Zuo Xiaoli didn't answer his question because the answer was obvious. There was no way she would let him go that easily if their role was reversed.

"I understand…" Zuo Xiaoli said as she stood up and prepared to leave.

"Oh right, before I forgot, next time, please don't do some stupid scheme against me or my mother." Lee Tao warned.

Zuo Xiaoli merely nodded her head as she left the room.

Lee Tao was full of smiles as he could finally have people deliver him free profound qi to harness.

Of course, he could have easily ordered someone else to do the task, but then the risk would be too much.

It was better to have someone else, someone in the underground gang to do it. 

That way, nobody would find it suspicious when people start disappearing as they will simply think it's some gang war for territory.

"Xiao Chu, make sure to keep a close scan on Zuo Xiaoli at all times." Lee Tao said.

"Even though I have the upper hand now, who knows what kind of devious scheme she might come up with in secret. I dare not underestimate a survivalist." 

"Xiao Chu understands, I already laced her with some of my profound qi. She won't be able to escape the system scans." 

Sometime later, Lee Tao finished the curse as he was about to get up and leave. 

Suddenly, the same hostess who greeted him at the front door knocked on the door.

Lee Tao opened it as he raised an eyebrow.

"I don't need your sexual service." Lee Tao said calmly.

Alas, the next words uttered by the hostess almost caused Lee Tao to vomit blood in anger.

"I know that, but you still need to pay for the VIP room and my service even if you didn't use it." 

'T-That damn bitch… she didn't foot the bill.'
