The night was silent.

Chapter 978 Boundless Strength

Seeing this scene, I frowned slightly.

But there was no time to pay too much attention at the moment, because the scaffolding was rapidly falling.

Seeing Chu Yue in front of me, terrified and helpless.

I flashed and held her shoulders, jumping aside again.

The movement was fluid and extremely fast.

Most people didn't even see it clearly before I had already grabbed Chu Yue and flashed to the side.

The scaffolding clanged and smashed to the ground, rolling everywhere with a clatter.

Dust billowed, and the surrounding workers were already scared out of their wits.

They all stared dumbfounded at the pile of scaffolding.

At this moment, someone suddenly shouted:

"There were two people below just now!"

"Yes, yes, it was two people wearing white hats!"

"That's Group Vice President Zhang Chu Yue, hurry and save them."

"..."

For a moment, shouts erupted across the construction site.

Many construction site leaders, upon hearing this, rushed over.

Some workers were also ordered to help rescue.

But Chu Yue and I had already flashed and hidden in a corner.

In front of us were more than a dozen scaffolding steel pipes, blocking us tightly inside.

The space, less than a square meter, was a bit cramped and uncomfortable.

"Are you okay?"

I looked at Chu Yue and asked.

Chu Yue looked at me, still trembling with lingering fear, but shook her head.

"I-I'm fine, you saved me again."

I smiled. In that situation, I would have intervened even if it wasn't Chu Yue.

But I didn't dwell on it, just said lightly.

"It's good that you're okay. Could you move your body a bit, I'll push away all this scaffolding in front of me."

"Okay, okay!"

Chu Yue quickly said and moved her body.

But the space was too narrow, and unavoidable touches made both of us feel awkward.

Chu Yue turned her head away, her face flushed.

But I had no improper thoughts. After squeezing through, I pushed at the scaffolding with my hands.

I found it was tightly pressed, but with my current cultivation, I could definitely push it.

So I shouted outside.

"Friends outside, please step back a bit..."

The workers outside were stunned when they heard me speak.

"Someone's there!"

"Are you all okay?"

"Is Vice President Zhang with you?"

"..."

Hearing these voices, Chu Yue also replied.

"I'm fine, it's okay!"

As soon as she said this, there was a clear sigh of relief from outside.

"That's great, it's good that Vice President is okay, really good."

"Young President Zhang, don't worry, we'll get you out immediately."

"..."

"Out there, stop dawdling and step back a bit."

I spoke again.

If these people didn't step back, I couldn't exert my strength properly.

It would be bad if I accidentally injured them.

If we kept squeezing in this narrow space, Chu Yue and I would be so embarrassed we'd cry.

Although the people outside didn't understand, they heard me speak again and again.

At this moment, they all stepped back.

"Everyone has retreated, what are you going to do?"

Hearing this voice, I couldn't be bothered to answer.

I just concentrated a Xuan Qi, and pushed forward with both hands:

"Open!"

With a "buzz," a powerful Dao Qi vibrated out.

The pile of scaffolding in front of me was instantly pushed away.

The steel pipes and scaffolding on top continuously rolled to the sides.

The sound of "clanging" echoed.

Right there, in front of hundreds of people.

I, with my bare hands, forcefully pushed aside the piled-up scaffolding, creating a path.

"Wow!"

"Is this a weightlifting champion? Such strength."

"Is it real, it's too exaggerated?"

"I've been a bricklayer for twenty years and I've never seen anyone with such strength."

"..."

The workers were all shocked. Watching me push aside the scaffolding, they were all full of admiration.

Finally, I pushed a gap through the pile of scaffolding, then climbed up and reached out to pull Chu Yue up.

Then, holding her waist, I jumped off the scaffolding and left the dangerous area.

Seeing that Chu Yue and I were unharmed, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

They praised my strength.

A few junior leaders kept blaming themselves.

They said they would definitely focus on safety inspections in the future.

But I looked towards the twelfth and thirteenth floors, and the figure had already disappeared.

However, I was one hundred percent sure that this was a demonic incident, not a failure of construction site safety.

Instead, it was a haunting.

Just as I was about to speak, several people rushed over from not far away.

"What's going on?"

"President Niu!"

"President Niu!"

"..."

A stout middle-aged man, surrounded by a group of people, quickly arrived at the scene.

"What happened, why is there another incident?"

The stout man berated.

But as soon as he spoke, he noticed Chu Yue beside me.

Seeing Chu Yue, he was startled, and quickly changed his expression.

"Vice President Zhang, why... why are you here?"

As soon as he spoke, a subordinate next to him said to the stout man.

"President Niu, the scaffolding just collapsed and almost crushed President Zhang."

The stout man's face turned green with fear.

He quickly said.

"It's all my responsibility. I will definitely strengthen the site's safety measures.

I will handle it properly!"

The stout man apologized repeatedly.

But at this moment, a young man in a green shirt walked up beside him.

He was around thirty-two or three.

He clasped his hands behind his back and looked at the building in front of him.

"The responsibility does not lie with President Niu, but with the haunting in the construction site.

If the malevolent spirits are not removed, accidents will continue to occur at the site.

President Zhang and others were fortunate to escape just now.

If that malevolent spirit acts up again, more lives might be lost..."

After speaking, he looked at President Niu beside him.

In front of more than a hundred workers, he said.

"President Niu, this humble Taoist priest has already seen the clues.

This humble priest is very confident in helping your construction site resolve this matter.

But this will consume a lot of my cultivation, so in terms of fees, it will cost an additional fifty thousand..."
