The Xiacheng branch of the Snake Gang is located in the west of the city. There is a high-rise building here. On the glass floor-to-ceiling window on one side of the building, there is a large black snake pattern printed on it.

This is the symbol of the Snake Gang.

At this moment, there were many cars parked in the parking lot near the Snake Gang's building, and the people getting off the cars were all arranged by Jiang Zhiwan.

At a rough glance, there were about forty or fifty people.

But he didn't see any of the people from the Snake Gang.

Even after entering the Snake Gang building, there was not a single member of the Snake Gang to be seen, as if the Snake Gang had already withdrawn.

"Did the Snake Gang get the news in advance? That's impossible. We also made the decision at the last minute. How could the Snake Gang react so quickly?" Shen Qiuxue asked puzzledly.

Jiang Zhiwan also frowned, sensing that something was fishy.

"There are some minor signs of fighting here. Did someone arrive earlier than me?" Lu Yetun said, looking at the slightly obvious scratches on the ground.

Jiang Zhiwan and Shen Qiuxue both looked over and found that it was indeed the case.

But this brings up a new problem: who will come to deal with the Snake Gang?

Logically speaking, Jiang should be the only family in Xia City that has the qualifications and strength to take action against the Snake Gang. Who else could it be?

The three of them all showed a hint of doubt in their eyes. After looking at each other, Lu Ye said, "Let's go up and take a look. Be careful."

Jiang Zhiwan nodded, agreeing with Lu Ye's proposal.

And on the top floor of the Snake Gang building, in the minister's office.

Zhang Xuanlin looked at Cao Yuan, who was sitting on the sofa in front of him, with a livid face, and a hint of fear flashed in his eyes.

However, compared with Zhang Xuanlin, Cao Yuan seemed extremely calm and composed. He even picked up the teacup on the table in front of him and took a sip.

"Dahongpao? The quality is just so-so." Cao Yuan laughed and said.

Zhang Xuanlin glanced outside the door. There was only a man in black outside, but he did not see the middle-aged man sent by the headquarters.

Swallowing his saliva, Zhang Xuanlin asked tentatively, "My Snake Gang should have never provoked the Quan Wu Cult. I wonder what Minister Cao means by this?"

Cao Yuan did not directly answer Zhang Xuanlin's question, but put the teacup back on the tea table, then chuckled and said, "Although Dahongpao is also delicious, I prefer black tea."

"What do you mean?" Zhang Xuanlin had a puzzled look on his face. He did not hear the hidden meaning of Cao Yuan's words.

Cao Yuan shook his head and said, "The pattern used by your Snake Gang is also a snake, and our entire witch cult also uses a snake. I don't like it. Is this reason enough?"

Enough, enough, your sister, enough.

Zhang Xuanlin twitched the corner of his mouth. Just because of a pattern, you want to destroy the Xiacheng branch of the Snake Gang?

It is said that the entire witch cult does things based on their mood and does whatever they want. Now Zhang Xuanlin has experienced it thoroughly.

"If the entire Witch Cult doesn't like it, I can report it to the higher-ups and ask them to consider replacing it." Zhang Xuanlin said with a smile.

What can he do? Zhang Xuanlin didn’t know Cao Yuan’s specific strength, but he was very clear about one thing.

He would never be a match for Cao Yuan, and even with the man in black outside, Zhang Xuanlin could only match him on equal terms.

Cao Yuan shook his head and smiled, saying, "Some people consider rock tea as a type of black tea, but after learning more about it, most people will understand that they are not the same."

Now, Zhang Xuanlin understood that Cao Yuan was using rock tea and black tea to metaphorically represent the Quan Wu Cult and the Snake Gang.

Cao Yuan gave Zhang Xuanlin only two choices.

Either the Snake Gang will be incorporated into the Quan Wu Cult, or it will be destroyed by the Quan Wu Cult.

After figuring this out, Zhang Xuanlin sighed and said, "I'm just the director of a branch."

What this means is that Zhang Xuanlin has no say in the matter.

Cao Yuan was not surprised by this. Instead, he waved at Zhang Xuanlin and said with a smile, "Don't waste this cup of Dahongpao."

As he spoke, Cao Yuan placed a cup in Zhang Xuanlin's direction and poured a full cup of tea into it.

Send guests off with plenty of tea.

The meaning is very clear. After drinking this cup, send Zhang Xuanlin away.

Zhang Xuanlin naturally did not intend to just sit there and wait for death, but he wanted to resolve the current crisis, which was impossible by himself.

I don't know if I will get reinforcements.

Zhang Xuanlin sighed inwardly and sat down opposite Cao Yuan.

"Minister Cao, this is indeed a good method." Zhang Xuanlin picked up the teacup and said.

Cao Yuan took a sip of tea and said with a smile, "This is the first time that the Wu Cult has established a branch in Xiacheng, so we have to be more radical in our actions."

As he spoke, Cao Yuan signaled Zhang Xuanlin that he could have tea.

Zhang Xuanlin closed his eyes, intending to drink the tea in one gulp. After all, whether he drank it or not, his result would not change.

A silver needle appeared in the hand of the man in black at the door, ready to throw it out the moment Zhang Xuanlin finished drinking the tea, aiming at the center of Zhang Xuanlin's eyebrows.

Just as Zhang Xuanlin's lips touched the tea, a surprised voice sounded outside the door, "All Witch Cults?"

Lu Ye and the other two took the elevator all the way to the top floor, and it could be said that they had no obstruction.

Even Jiang Zhiwan's bodyguards were not hindered at all and took another elevator to the top floor in two groups.

The top floor is designed as a circular corridor with two offices.

The door of one of the offices was open, and standing outside was a man in black from the Quan Witch Cult who was familiar to Lu Ye and the other two.

Lu Ye then spoke in surprise, instantly attracting everyone's attention.

"Isn't this the kid from last night? Where is the little Nanliang from the Hua family? Why wasn't he brought along?" When the man in black saw Lu Ye, he grinned lewdly and turned his head, as if he was looking for Hua Lianyu.

Inside the office, Zhang Xuanlin paused, a little surprised. Why was Lu Ye here?

Cao Yuan laughed and said loudly, "Young man, I didn't expect that we would meet again so soon. Let them come in and have some tea and chat together."

The man in black smacked his lips but did not take any other action. He just took a step back and pretended to let Lu Ye and the other two in.

While Lu Ye was still wondering if there was any trap, Jiang Zhiwan had already stepped in.

"This is the first time I've seen two sewer snakes biting each other. It's quite new." Jiang Zhiwan said as soon as she entered.

The moment Zhang Xuanlin saw Jiang Zhiwan, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. Jiang Zhiwan was still alive?

He was clearly looking for a killer with a very high success rate, and Jiang Zhiwan had never practiced martial arts, so logically he should have succeeded in the assassination.

However, now is obviously not the time to worry about these things.

When Zhang Xuanlin saw Jiang Zhiwan, he immediately spoke as if he had seen a savior, "Boss Jiang, if the Quan Wu Cult sets up a branch in Xiacheng, it will not be a good thing for either your Jiang family or our Snake Gang. Why don't we join forces to eliminate the Quan Wu Cult? The Snake Gang can promise to give the Jiang family half of the profits."
