My husband Can Cultivate-Chapter 238: What a Martial Fool!

"Don’t worry! I’ll make up for it and do my best to minimize the losses. Besides, I have a backup plan!" Li Qingyan said. "The important thing is that a person like him absolutely cannot become our spokesperson. If he ever gets into trouble, we will be implicated. I agree with you!"

"Hahaha, I knew I didn’t misjudge you. Keep up the good work. I’ll help you think of something too!" Yang Qi laughed and hung up.

Li Qingyan immediately called Johnny again. "If you want to terminate the contract, go ahead. But remember to pay us the termination fee. Otherwise, get ready for a lawsuit!"

After saying that, she hung up. That avenue was no longer viable; she had to find another way.

On the other end of the line, Johnny put down his phone, his whole body trembling. He had thought Li Qingyan would go after Yang Qi, but he never expected her to side with him. Now, things were getting troublesome.

"Charlie, do we have any connections left in Kang City?" Johnny asked. He had to show Qifei Group who they were dealing with, and for that, he needed help. Doing it alone would be difficult. 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

"Doctor, we have contact with Liang Jin of the Liang Family, which is part of the Kang City Business Alliance. Liang Jin is the Family Head of the Liang Family and one of the four chairmen of the Alliance," Charlie said. "We can use the Alliance’s influence to control the media in Kang City and prevent Qifei Group from getting any publicity. We also have connections with the wealthiest man, Fan Shengren. Coincidentally, both of these factions have a grudge against Qifei Group.

"If we can leverage them, not only the media in Kang City but even those in the surrounding areas will terminate their contracts with Qifei Group. They will be plunged into a situation where they can’t get any publicity at all. By then, even the best medicine won’t sell. Even customers who have already placed orders will cancel them."

"Good. Contact them," Johnny said, a crazed expression on his face. "Cut off all of Qifei Group’s publicity channels. I want to ruin them completely!"

The insignificant Qifei Group dared to offend him and still demand a termination fee? Dream on!

Meanwhile, Li Qingyan, Ye Fei, and the others were in the office discussing their upcoming publicity plans. Even without Johnny, they could still hire someone else.

Just then, Li Qingyan received a phone call. When she hung up, her expression turned extremely grim.

"What happened?" Ye Fei asked with a frown.

Li Qingyan frowned and explained, "Several of the internet celebrities we signed have also chosen to terminate their contracts! The artists we just contacted have all refused to work with us. Not only that, but TV stations, print media, and online outlets have just contacted us to cancel our collaborations. They would rather pay the breach of contract fee than publish our advertisements!"

"How could this be!" Ye Fei was stunned. Johnny alone shouldn’t wield this much power.

"It must be the Kang City Business Alliance!" Li Qingyan gritted her teeth. "I can’t think of anyone else with enough power to make the media in and around Kang City refuse to work with us. This is just too domineering, too tyrannical!"

Over the next few minutes, more than a dozen other calls came in, all with the same message: they would no longer cooperate. They didn’t want to cooperate. It went so far that Qifei Group’s accounts on a major social media platform and a short-video app were banned, giving them no opportunity to even speak, let alone promote themselves. The entire situation was outrageous.

Li Qingyan realized how severe things had become. She had underestimated the Kang City Business Alliance. With their publicity completely crippled, it wasn’t just the upcoming new drug launch that was in jeopardy; all future promotions were now impossible. No matter how good your product is, if no one knows about it, how can they buy it? This isn’t an age where a good product can sell itself anymore.

"Regardless, he might be able to block the media around Kang City, but can he really block the media from other regions? We’ll try to contact them. We have to minimize our losses!" Li Qingyan said, gradually regaining her composure.

It wasn’t time to despair yet. Some things still had to be done. But when she actually tried, she realized how difficult it was. Media outlets from other regions agreed to cooperate, but they were simply unable to enter Kang City. The Kang City Business Alliance and Fan Shengren had locked down the city. Any media outlet that dared to cooperate with Qifei Group would face their retaliation. They were trying to drag Qifei Group straight to hell.

Li Qingyan had never imagined facing such a desperate situation. Ye Fei was also at a loss and had no choice but to call Yang Qi.

"Don’t worry, I’m at Yan Bo’s house right now!" Yang Qi said with a laugh.

"Yan Bo? The media mogul, Yan Bo?" Ye Fei grew excited.

"Yes, that’s him. He controls almost all the media in Jingnan Prefecture," Yang Qi said. "Others may fear the Kang City Business Alliance, but he doesn’t. As long as we can get him on our side, we’ll be fine!"

"Are you confident?" Ye Fei asked, worried.

"What kind of question is that? When have I ever let you down? Just wait for the good news!"

After hanging up, Yang Qi looked at Zhao Xiong and Yan Bo, who were chatting. He had only been able to meet Yan Bo through Zhao Xiong’s introduction, but Yan Bo was clearly not interested in him, not even bothering to speak with him. Yang Qi simply smiled, not taking it to heart.

He picked up a piece of paper and a ballpoint pen, wrote a short passage, and drew a diagram of precise acupressure points along a strange circulatory route. Then, he placed the paper on the table.

Standing up, he said, "City Lord Zhao, since Mr. Yan Bo doesn’t welcome me, I’ll be on my way. You two continue your chat!" With that, he turned and left.

"Yan Bo, you’re a Martial Artist too," Zhao Xiong said nonchalantly. "Mr. Yang is a Great Grandmaster who defeated the five Independents and Song Yan. Aren’t you interested in exchanging a few pointers?"

"Hmph, him? A Great Grandmaster? You think I’d believe that?" Yan Bo scoffed. "Even someone like me, who has dedicated his life to Cultivation, has only reached the Perfection of a Martial Arts Grandmaster and has yet to advance. On what grounds could he possibly be one?"

Although he had heard the rumors, Yan Bo was an incredibly proud man. He would never believe anything he hadn’t seen with his own eyes.

"Fine, if that’s the case, I’ll take my leave as well!" Zhao Xiong was about to go when he noticed the piece of paper Yang Qi had left on the table. He paused. Seeing the note was addressed to Yan Bo, he resisted his curiosity, picked it up, and handed it to him. "Mr. Yang left this for you. You should take a look."

Yan Bo was initially disdainful, but with Zhao Xiong present, he couldn’t just dismiss it and disrespect the City Lord. After all, while in Kang City, one had to show some deference to City Lord Zhao.

He unfolded the paper and glanced at it. His initial disdain turned into a frown. Finally, his expression became one of pure shock and disbelief.

Seeing this, Zhao Xiong grew even more curious. Just as he was about to ask what was written, Yan Bo suddenly sat down cross-legged on the floor, closed his eyes, and began to cultivate.

Zhao Xiong was left speechless. This guy is a true martial fanatic.

Helpless, he could only sit nearby and wait. As a Martial Artist himself, he naturally knew not to disturb someone during their Cultivation.
