Jiang Chen raised his hand to stop her, remembering the words he heard in the airport corridor, his expression became stern: "Why did they ask you to find You Ye to deal with Yi Chen Group?"

"This..." Lu Wenqiang hesitated for a moment and turned to look at You Ye.

You Ye's expression turned cold, and she scolded: "Why are you looking at me? Mr. Jiang is an honored guest of our clan, and very likely to become our clan leader. Do you understand?"

"What?!"

Lu Wenqiang was startled, and he quickly bowed to Jiang Chen: "Mr. Jiang, I'm sorry! I didn't know that you..."

Jiang Chen waved his hand dismissively: "Alright, let's talk about this Lü Tianfang matter."

"Yes."

Lu Wenqiang said hurriedly: "Lü Tianfang sought me out because..."

"What?" After hearing Lu Wenqiang's recounting, Spirit You exclaimed in shock, turning to Jiang Chen: "Young Master Jiang, should we deal with them?"

Hearing this, Lu Wenqiang trembled with fear, gazing at Spirit You in astonishment.

"Dealing with them is pointless."

Jiang Chen gently shook his head: "We've encountered those two before; they are not with the others. It's possible they acted solely on seeing a business opportunity. I..."

He sighed softly: "Alas, it's my mistake. I was only thinking of leveraging our connections to cover the entire continent and neglected the forces on the domestic and international periphery like Zhou Yi District, Zhudao City, and Haojiang. We haven't made any arrangements in these three areas!"

"What should we do with those two then?"

You Ye spoke in a low voice, as she knew why Jiang Chen wanted to acquire pharmaceutical companies and understood the gravity of the situation.

"Like this, President Lu, go back and give them a reply, saying that Unchanging Valley agrees to let them go. After dinner, you will personally take them to Unchanging Valley!",

Jiang Chen whispered this instruction to Lu Wenqiang.

"Yes!"

Lu Wenqiang nodded respectfully, and while secretly glancing at You Ye who seemed calm and showed no objection, he felt a secret shock and then turned to leave the private room.

Jiang Chen turned to look at You Ye: "You Ye, once in Unchanging Valley, instruct your people to find a way to extricate the listings of the pharmaceutical companies controlled by the Sanzhu Commerce Alliance. I want to see if they have any pharmaceutical companies under the control of the Gene Organization."

"Yes."

You Ye nodded seriously in response.

"Let's go ahead and leave first, don't run into them," Jiang Chen spoke in a low voice.

"Alright!"

The three of them got up, left the private room, and exited the resort.

Reaching the back of the resort, You Ye led the way, and the three followed a twisting path.

Walking along, Jiang Chen took out his mobile phone, opened a group chat, and sent a voice message: "Who has contacts in Zhou Yi District, Zhudao City, and Haojiang? We need reliable connections."

Dingling!

Dingling!

After a while, voice messages began to appear in the group chat.

"Mr. Jiang, our Tang Family has had business dealings with Hongxing in Zhudao City for decades now; they should be trustworthy."

"Big brother, when I was little, I went to play in Haojiang and met a buddy. He's the grandson of the Haojiang Casino King. We have a great relationship; I visit him every year to hang out. Would that be useful?"

"Mr. Jiang, the Sanzhu Commerce Alliance in Zhou Yi District are commercial allies with our Song Family. Their second young master, Lü Tianjiang, even pursued me before. I can talk to him."

"Mr. Jiang, our Flame Dragon Group has always maintained a good relationship with the Sanzhu Commerce Alliance, the Casino King, and Hongxing in Zhou Yi District, Zhudao City, and Haojiang. If there's anything, we can talk to them too!"

"Jiang Chen, our Yi Chen has also been expanding cooperation recently with Hongxing in Zhudao City and the Casino King in Haojiang. If there's any need, I can contact the person in charge over there at Yi Chen."

After listening to all the voice messages, Jiang Chen was surprised.

He never thought that these people would actually have such good connections.

However, he soon came to terms with it.

It is quite normal for these families along the river to have commercial interactions with places like Zhou Yi District. With Ye Jingyi's character, she would definitely not neglect these three places as carelessly as he did.

"Yu Lin, go to Zhudao City immediately, investigate whether the Zhudao City pharmaceutical company has been acquired by anyone. For the time being, do not reveal any news to Hongxing."

"Qiangqiang, have Hu Zi go with you to Haojiang for the same task."

"Miss Song, go find Ying Zi and let Ying Zi accompany you to Zhou Yi District, the same thing!"

"Zhu Yan, inform the heads of the Flame Dragon Group in these three places to secretly pay attention to this, tell Elder Qing to personally oversee Zhou Yi District!"

"If possible, please have Elder Bai go to Zhudao City and Elder Hei go to Haojiang. These three places are territories that I have overlooked, and they are inseparable parts of my Flame Dragon territory. We absolutely cannot allow the Gene Organization to unfold their conspiracy here!"

"Jing Yi, notify the heads of the companies in these three places, tell them that I will be visiting soon and to prepare funds, ready to make an investment at any moment, but for now, do not tell them what I'm going to do and also ensure they maintain strict confidentiality!"

Jiang Chen thought for a moment, then solemnly gave his instructions.

"Yes!"

"I'm on it immediately!"

"Understood!"

A chorus of responses rang out in the group chat.

After turning off the group chat, Jiang Chen put away his phone and said with regret, "How could I have overlooked these three places!"

"Young Master Jiang, don't blame yourself. You have always been under such great pressure; it's normal to miss some things," You Ye said softly, consoling him.

Jiang Chen shook his head, "No, this matter is of great importance; we cannot afford any mistakes."

A trace of sympathy appeared in You Ye's eyes upon hearing this.

Since meeting Jiang Chen in Luer City, You Ye had been investigating his past and knew everything he had been through over these two years. For Jiang Chen, she felt deep admiration and sympathy!

No longer speaking, Jiang Chen quietly climbed the mountain, thinking of the arrangements he had made to see if there was anything he missed. Spirit You and You Ye, seeing Jiang Chen deep in thought, did not disturb him.

All three were martial arts experts, and they quickly made their way along the path, soon arriving at a cliff at the top of a mountain.

There were several tourists atop the cliff, taking photos at its edge. Next to the cliff stood a tall pine tree, nearly a hundred meters tall and almost ten people could encircle its trunk. Under the pine tree was a skinny old man selling fruit and drinks at a stall.

"This is Broken Heart Cliff; right below is Unchanging Valley!" You Ye approached the edge and pointed down.

Jiang Chen came to the edge and looked down, seeing that a layer of mist obscured the depths below.

He glanced left and right, then picked up his walking stick and pointed to a large tree by the cliff edge. "Do we descend from there?"

"Young Master Jiang, how did you figure that out?" You Ye asked in surprise.

Jiang Chen smiled faintly, gesturing towards the old fruit vendor, and whispered with a low chuckle:

"How could a strong practitioner in the late stages of the Venerable Realm be here selling fruits and drinks? This senior must be watching over the entrance to prevent tourists from accidentally discovering it, right?"
