"This time, it should be fine."

Jiang Chen shook his head, "But Leng Ming, remember, you must follow one principle when you're with me. While I'm on the phone, pay attention to what I say. If my words seem nonsensical or inconsistent with reality, you must not interrupt. Understood?"

"Okay!" Leng Ming nodded quickly in agreement.

"Mr. Jiang, did this young man cause trouble? You don't need to spare our feelings, just deal with him!" Pu Liang spoke softly.

Jiang Chen shook his head, "It's alright this time, I'll make a call first."

He dialed a series of numbers and broadcasted the call.

Leng Ming consciously covered his mouth.

"It's Fine!" Jiang Chen glanced at Leng Ming and spoke softly.

Leng Ming sighed in relief and lowered his hand.

"Hello, Young Master!" The call connected quickly, carrying Xuan Long's voice through the receiver.

Jiang Chen's expression grew serious, "A Long, how is the company you set up abroad doing now?"

"Young Master, the company has already reached the global top 500!"

"What? Top 500 in the world?! So soon?!" Jiang Chen was momentarily startled and exclaimed in surprise.

"Young Master, we borrowed some connections and channels from the Pamir Family and the Ge'er Family."

Jiang Chen frowned and spoke sternly, "You borrowed their connections and channels? Do they know the company is mine?"

"No! They don't know that, Young Master, rest assured, we have handled it carefully."

Xuan Long responded solemnly, "As per your orders, Young Master, we used the identity of a lesser-known domestic family's young master who had been lost abroad to establish the company. Moreover, that person did indeed exist, but he passed away from illness six months ago and has been replaced by our own person. Since he had been lost abroad from a young age, his family didn't recognize him, so rest assured!"

"That's good! Using that company's name, establish several shell companies under Flame Dragon, and then start acquiring small, medium, and large pharmaceutical companies of Flame Dragon."

Jiang Chen breathed a sigh of relief and nodded slightly, "But remember, don't tell Jing Yi and the others. We have to keep up appearances fully, in case Jing Yi treats you differently from other acquisition forces, which might give us away!"

"Yes!" Xuan Long didn't question why they were acting this way but simply agreed.

"The acquisitions should be done as quickly as possible, with small companies capped at fifty million, medium ones at five hundred million, and large ones at two billion. Acquire more than ten companies as fast as possible and then notify me immediately!" Jiang Chen arranged softly.

"Yes!"

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Chen put away his mobile phone, looked up at the crowd, and spoke softly, "The call that just came in was from a mole I had placed inside the Gene Organization."

"A mole?!"

"Mr. Jiang, you have..."

Everyone exclaimed aloud, and Zai Lun and a few others suddenly realized the gravity of the situation and stared at Leng Ming.

"I was wrong!" Leng Ming admitted guiltily, looking apologetically at Jiang Chen.

"It's not his fault, I should have clarified! Please help me to keep this secret!" Jiang Chen spoke softly.

"Mr. Jiang, rest assured, we understand the limits, and this will only stay within this room!" Zai Lun nodded emphatically and spoke solemnly.

Jiang Chen nodded slightly, then turned his head to Supreme Long Huang, "According to the news from there, they have started hiring people to help them acquire pharmaceutical companies. This is something my people have been keeping an eye on, and the Flame Dragon Group should pay attention too!"

"Okay!" Supreme Long Huang nodded.

"Moreover!"

A chill flashed through Jiang Chen's eyes, "The Gene Organization's people are already in place at Flame Dragon and moreover, they are sending more people this way. Supreme elder Long Huang, we need to keep a close guard on sea, land, and air entries!"

"Leave it to me!" Supreme Long Huang nodded again.

Jiang Chen frowned and pondered for a moment before speaking softly, "Since they are already making moves, their target must be the Elixir Valley's Elixir Competition. We can't rule out the possibility of them causing disturbances at the martial arts conference, but it is definite that they will at the Elixir Valley's—so we need to make specific arrangements now!"

"Ah!" Supreme Long Huang sighed, "I was initially hoping they'd make their move at the martial arts conference, which would have given us more time to prepare."

"We can't expect the enemy to give us opportunities!"

Jiang Chen spoke sternly, "Supreme elder Long Huang, the inquiries on the hidden families need to be intensified. They will probably attend the Elixir Valley's Alchemy Conference, and if we don't identify them beforehand, I worry they could become an unstable bomb!"

"Okay!" Supreme Long Huang's expression grew even more solemn.

"Zai Lun, have you ever been to Elixir Valley before?" Jiang Chen turned his head to Zai Lun.

Zai Lun shook his head gently, "No, we don't need the elixirs from Elixir Valley, we haven't dealt with them!"

"I see!" Jiang Chen pondered for a bit and spoke softly, "In that case, Zai Lun, when the time comes for you to go to Elixir Valley, don't expose yourself. Infiltrate secretly as a surprise element!"

"Okay!" Zai Lun nodded.

Jiang Chen's eyes darted around, and he spoke softly, "That's about it, we should be going now!"

"Okay!"

No one attempted to detain them, and everyone stood up to see them off.

Zai Lun did not appear, and Pu Liang, along with a few others, escorted Jiang Chen and his party out of the Huangluo Clan palace complex.

Wuu wuu...

Two Hummers drove away from Jueluo Peak.

In the car.

Jiang Chen took out his phone and dialed into a group call.

"Jiang Chen!"

"Mr. Jiang!"

"Young Jiang..."

Soon, everyone in the group connected to video call.

"Has anything unusual been noted recently?" Jiang Chen spoke softly.

"No!"

"Everything's normal!"

"Young Jiang, just spit it out, let me continue experimenting with the Elixir afterwards!"

Everyone responded in turn.

"Just received news, a new force is competing with us in acquiring pharmaceutical companies. I've decided..."

Jiang Chen spoke with a stern expression, "From today onwards, put all the forces still competing with us in acquiring pharmaceutical companies under heavy pressure, starting with major domestic powers then international ones!"

"During this period, we will offend many people, and perhaps put some of our families or companies at risk of collapse. I hope everyone can help each other out! Miss Song!"

Mentioning this, Jiang Chen called her name.

"Mr. Jiang, you say!" Song Wanqiu spoke softly.

Considering the video, Jiang Chen said to Song Wanqiu, "Miss Song, you are more familiar with domestic commercial forces than us and also have quicker access to business news. Please keep an eye on everyone's companies. If any unusual situation occurs that everyone hasn't noticed in time, please mention it in the group!"

"Okay!"

Song Wanqiu agreed without hesitation, then opened her mouth as though she wanted to say something else.
