"Brother, brother, you..." Long Zixiang was trembling with fear. Seeing the so-called brother in front of him now felt like seeing a demon.

Soon, two burly men in black came in quickly and dragged the person away, then cleaned up the scene.

"Oh, just a useless guy, don't let it ruin our brotherly bond." Brother Long smiled, completely unaffected by what had just happened. "By the way, father should have told you about my plans for Longteng Group, right?"

Long Zixiang's mind went blank, he just nodded woodenly.

Brother Long continued, "I know you attended Elder Chen's birthday banquet recently, you must have seen what happened there yourself. So now that Star Group's collaboration with the Chen Family is practically a done deal, right?"

Long Zixiang forced himself to hold back his nausea, nodding again.

"Hmm, actually, this is a good thing. I've always been obsessed with Star Group, and since they are now tied to the Chen Group, that's good for us." Brother Long stabbed a piece of beef with his fork and presented it to Long Zixiang, "Brother, it's delicious, want a bite?"

The knife and fork still had blood from the burly men earlier.

Long Zixiang glanced at it, nearly threw up again, and quickly shook his head.

The smile on Brother Long's face instantly vanished, "What? We brothers haven't seen each other for years, and you don't want a bite when I offer it?"

Long Zixiang felt a shiver run down his spine at his words.

His legs couldn't stop trembling.

Instinctively, he wanted to refuse, but he didn't dare.

He stiffly opened his mouth and ate the piece of beef.

Brother Long finally smiled again, "That's right. People say brothers united are like gold. How could I, as an elder brother, eat meat while letting my younger brother only drink soup?"

He went back to eating on his own.

Long Zixiang didn't dare make a sound, not even move unnecessarily.

Brother Long continued, "Actually, this matter isn't hard to solve. Since the Chen Group is now tied to Star Group, wouldn't things be much simpler if we made Chen Group a part of Longteng Group?"

Long Zixiang sensed something different, and asked in confusion, "What do you mean?"

"Hehe, just two hours ago, Elder Chen announced that Chen Ziran will take over the entire Chen Group. So now, Chen Group listens to Chen Ziran. If you sleep with Chen Ziran, then wouldn't the Chen Group become yours?"

"Sleep with Chen Ziran?" Long Zixiang was taken aback.

He wanted to.

Although he had slept with many women, Long Zixiang knew he had never been with someone as exquisite in both figure and looks as Chen Ziran.

If he could really sleep with her, why wouldn't he want to?

"But, she seems hard to get," Long Zixiang curled his lips, thinking of Ye Guichen being in the way, and his face darkened.

Brother Long didn't pay any attention to Long Zixiang and instead threw a small bag filled with white powder in front of him, "Dear brother, you are my brother, Long Tianci. There are plenty of ways to sleep with a woman. The dumbest and most useless is seduction. You're not doing it to win her heart, why waste so much effort?"

Long Zixiang's lips twitched again.

He awkwardly smiled, but inwardly bitter: It's easy with ordinary women, but for someone like Chen Ziran, money won't break her open.

Long Tianci seemed to know what Long Zixiang was thinking, and pointed at the small bag, "This is a potent aphrodisiac I mixed up myself, hehe, just a tiny bit, and she'll be begging you to play with her!"

Long Zixiang's eyes lit up, "Brother, I understand."

He grabbed the small bag immediately.

As long as he could sleep with Chen Ziran and take some photos, wouldn't she have to listen to him obediently?

By then, wouldn't the Chen Group just be a money-making tool for Longteng Group?

Long Zixiang was eager to try it out.

Meanwhile, Ye Guichen held the three jade pendants, deep in thought.

According to Zhou Huairen, there should be seven pieces of this Seven-colored Lotus Jade, and once all seven pieces were gathered, there might be some magical effect.

Ye Guichen didn't hold out much hope for any miraculous revival.

But these three jade pendants all pointed to Snake Head Mountain and seemed intricately linked to his origins.

"Brother, can we talk?" As Ye Guichen pondered while walking, three or five burly men appeared in front of him, blocking his way.

They smiled at Ye Guichen.

One person leaning on a cane looked vicious, he was the man Ye Guichen had injured earlier.

Ye Guichen knew they were after the jade pendants and wouldn't stop until they got what they wanted.

But Ye Guichen didn't know many details about the pendants; Zhou Huairen also had little knowledge about them.

So he might as well pry the information from them.

"Something on your mind?" Ye Guichen looked up, curiously asked.

"Haha, want to go somewhere private, dare to join?" The leader, Buddha, couldn't act out here due to the crowd, so he provoked him deliberately.

Ye Guichen shrugged, "Lead the way."

Buddha led the way, while his men quickly surrounded Ye Guichen from behind, fearing he might escape.

Minutes later, Buddha brought Ye Guichen to a bar.

"Clear out!" Buddha shouted as he entered, and his men started evicting everyone from the bar.

Soon, only Buddha and his men were left in the bar.

But within minutes, twenty or thirty more burly men with clubs appeared around Buddha.

They sat or stood, surrounding Buddha, grinning at Ye Guichen as if he were a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.

Ye Guichen glanced around calmly, "What's this grand setup for? Planning to fight?"

"Haha, that depends on whether you're sensible or not." Buddha pointed to the cane-leaning man beside him and coldly said, "You injured them, so I should break your legs, but I am merciful and dislike violence. So, I'll give you a chance, hand over the jade pendants, and I'll let you go today."

"What if I don't hand them over?"

"Hehe." Buddha sneered, "I know you're tough, but don't you know that two fists can't beat four hands?"

"I'd like to see for myself."

"Alright!" Buddha didn't expect Ye Guichen to be so obstinate, "Don't blame me for not being merciful then."

As Buddha finished, four or five burly men swung their fists at Ye Guichen.

Buddha sat down, watching as if he were entertained.
