"Yes!"

From the handset came Xuan Long's puzzled voice, "Ever since one month ago, the Dark Night Angel keeps sending us messages. At first, I was skeptical, but after verification, all their information turned out to be true, and it has saved us a lot of trouble!"

"The Dark Night Angel can be trusted," Jiang Chen spoke softly. "I generally understand why they are helping us. We don't need to be on guard against them, but of course, we can't be too reassured."

"Understood!" Xuan Long replied.

"Good, get ready, and once you've finished up with your current tasks, pull together a group of brothers who have reached Semi Innate and Innate Realm and have Li Wuji lead them back to the country," Jiang Chen instructed.

"Yes!"

After hanging up the call with Xuan Long, Jiang Chen dialed another number.

"Hello, Mr. Jiang," came Huo Huade's suppressed excited voice from the handset.

"Huo Huade, do me a favor," Jiang Chen started softly.

"Mr. Jiang, please don't be polite, just tell me whatever you need!" Huo Huade's voice was somewhat fearful.

Jiang Chen couldn't help but chuckle, then lightly said, "Does your Dark Night Angel's intelligence network cover Diamond Country?"

"It does. Except for Da Yahua continent where our network is not fully established, we cover almost everywhere else, except for a few places controlled by major powers!" Huo Huade proudly stated.

"Good! Diamond Country's Tamwood Country has a large diamond mine that Jiuzhou Group negotiated for, but the local bosses suddenly reneged. Help me find out why they went back on their word!" Jiang Chen softly ordered.

"Mr. Jiang, we were actually discussing whether to inform you about this,"

Huo Huade's voice carried a hint of hesitation, "That diamond mine was tampered with by the Ge'er Family, it was Ge'er Te, the eldest young master of the Ge'er Family, who personally gave the order. Those local bosses took benefits from the Ge'er Family, that's why they are making things difficult for Jiuzhou Group!"

"Ge'er Te!" A cold light flashed in Jiang Chen's eyes.

"Mr. Jiang! The Ge'er Family is not just a simple business family; they are backed by the massive Chaide Family. The Chaide Family is a Northern Alliance giant, the cradle of Northern Alliance Knights, and their strength is absolutely not to be underestimated."

Huo Huade's voice came again, "Sixty years ago, a young master from the Chaide Family was killed in the Flame Dragon Kingdom, and the Chaide Family sent a team of Guardian Knights who wiped out a top-tier sect. Those Guardian Knights all had the strength of Innate Grandmasters, and the team leader even reached the Semi Venerable Venerable Realm. Please don't be rash!"

"Huo Huade, are you telling me to tolerate someone harassing my woman, or are you telling me to hand over my woman to someone else?" Jiang Chen's voice grew cold.

Lou Qiangqiang and Tang Wanru both turned their heads to look at Jiang Chen. Yan Hu, who was driving, glanced in the rearview mirror, his eyes emitting a frigid glint.

"What? Your woman?!"

A cry of surprise came from the handset, followed by a nervous explanation, "No, no, no, I'm sorry, Mr. Jiang, I wasn't aware of this, I definitely didn't mean that! Really not, I..."

"Enough! Send me a list of properties owned by Ge'er Te from the Ge'er Family!"

Jiang Chen cut off Huo Huade's apology, his voice stern, "Keep an eye on that diamond mine. No one is allowed to mine it until this matter is resolved. What belongs to Jiang Chen is not so easily taken!"

"Yes!" Huo Huade's respectful voice came from the handset.

...

At this moment, in a luxurious hotel in Diamond Country's Tamwood Country.

In the grand hall of the top-floor presidential suite sat two women and a man—it was Huo Huade, Luo Sha, and the Dark Night Queen.

After hanging up the telephone, Huo Huade looked at the Dark Night Queen with a wry smile. "Sister, I misspoke."

"I heard you, Huo Huade. Remember, we are a family that follows Lord Xue, and we can only make suggestions to Lord Xue, not make decisions for him," the Dark Night Queen stated sternly.

"Yes!"

Huo Huade nodded, speaking softly, "Mr. Jiang probably intends to make a move against Ge'er Te. He wants all the properties under Ge'er Te's name, and he has instructed us to watch over that diamond mine, forbidding anyone from mining there!"

"Luo Sha, take someone and personally oversee that vein. This is the first task Lord Xue has assigned us, and we must complete it!" the Dark Night Queen turned to Luo Sha.

"Yes!" Luo Sha nodded respectfully and left the room.

"Huo Huade, immediately hand over all of Ge'er Te's property information to Mr. Jiang," the Dark Night Queen turned to Huo Huade and after a moment, added, "Find a way to let Ge'er Yan know about Ge'er Te causing further trouble for Mr. Jiang."

"Understood!" Huo Huade nodded and took out his phone to start making a call.

The Dark Night Queen pondered for a moment and then whispered to herself, "We can't expose ourselves for the time being. For this matter, we probably need to ask Dragon Flame for help!"

Taking out her phone, the Dark Night Queen made a call.

"Hello, who is this?" a cautious voice came from the receiver.

"Commander Xuan Long, this is the Dark Night," the Dark Night Queen spoke softly.

In a secret forest in the Diamond Country, the brothers of Dragon Flame were resting.

"Dark Night?! You're the Dark Night Queen!" Xuan Long exclaimed as he recognized the voice on the phone.

If members of the Dark Night Mercenary Corps introduced themselves, they would say they are from the Dark Night Angel Mercenary Corps. The only one who would introduce herself simply as "Dark Night" was the Dark Night Queen.

An Long and the others around him gestured for silence upon hearing Xuan Long's reaction and all looked up at him.

"Yes, it's me!" the Dark Night Queen's voice confirmed from the receiver.

"Is Mr. Huo Huade there?" Xuan Long frowned slightly, as it had always been Huo Huade who contacted him. The sudden personal contact from the Dark Night Queen made him seek confirmation.

"Brother, I'm Huo Huade. The person you were just speaking to is our leader," Huo Huade's voice came from the receiver after a short while. "Brother, this matter is of great importance; the leader will explain to you!"

"Understood!" Xuan Long's expression became grave as he spoke firmly. A matter that the Dark Night Mercenary Corps deemed important was surely of the utmost urgency!

"Commander Xuan Long, our opponent this time is Ge'er Family's eldest young master, Ge'er Te. It seems as though Ge'er Te is targeting Mr. Jiang and has even plotted to take Mr. Jiang's woman!" the Dark Night Queen's voice came through once more.

"What? The audacity! How dare he even think of taking the Young Master's woman?!" Xuan Long erupted in anger.

Clack-clack-clack!

The sound of rifle bolts being pulled back rang out as all the brothers of the Dragon Flame Mercenary Corps stood up.

They were, of course, well aware of who the Young Master Xuan Long referred to was: their boss, the man they respected the most, so revered that they wouldn't hesitate to call him their god.

Daring to take their god's woman was a definitive death wish!
