However... it is not impossible that the two of them offended a powerful enemy, lured the enemy to the island, and did all this.

So in my opinion, we need to find the clues and build the boat, but someone must also guard here.

You are of extraordinary status and must know a lot of things that we, a bunch of unsophisticated people, don't know.

Now that you've been poisoned, you don't know how long you can live. If you suddenly die with this secret, what a pity that would be!

So for the sake of us brothers, shouldn't you also tell us those secrets?

We have been with the island master for so long, and have made contributions and worked hard. Could it be that the island master has never treated us as brothers and is unwilling to help us with even such a small favor?"

Chen Shou and Chen Shao's expressions instantly turned extremely ugly.

Although the two men became extremely weak, they were unwilling to die. They just wanted to survive this disaster safely and continue to live for a long time.

What the other party said was tantamount to cursing them to death. How could the two of them feel good?

The leaders present all thought that what he said was very reasonable, so they sent their men to look for clues and build ships, but none of them were willing to leave.

Soon, only the Chen brothers and a dozen leaders were left in the conference room.

At this moment, they looked at the Chen brothers with greedy and explicit eyes, as if they wanted to eat them alive.

Chen Shou and Chen Shao saw through these people's thoughts at a glance, and their faces suddenly became extremely ugly.

The two sides looked at each other, and the atmosphere in the conference room became increasingly tense.

Chen Shao was extremely disgusted by the looks these people gave him. He soon lost control of his anger and shouted, "What are you trying to do? Langhuan Island is surrounded by powerful enemies and is in danger. Its future is bleak. Do you still want to fight among yourselves?"

One of the leaders sneered: "Since the island master knows, he should reveal all those secrets for the sake of Langhuan Island."

After he finished speaking, someone quickly echoed him, "Indeed, even at this point, the island owner still refuses to reveal those secrets. Could it be that he doesn't trust us brothers and would rather take those secrets to his grave than reveal them?"

Chen Shou saw that the situation was getting worse, and he quickly looked at the Chen family members and said with some displeasure, "Are you just going to let them do whatever they want?"

Several members of the Chen family had grim expressions.

Among the eighteen leaders, only nine are members of the Chen family.

Originally there were fourteen of them, but now there are only nine left.

In order to eliminate dissidents and cultivate his confidants, Chen Shao has often targeted the Chen family in recent years!

As a result, as soon as the Cheng'en Mansion fell, these close confidants supported by Chen Shao began to make moves.

Now that Chen Shao and Chen Shou are in trouble and have even become bastards, it is very likely that they are not members of the Chen family at all!

Chen Shou actually had the nerve to accuse them of not helping?

A member of the Chen family couldn't help but sneer, "Who are you to give us orders? The Cheng'en Mansion no longer exists, and you are no longer the Prince of Cheng'en!

Besides, you are a bastard born out of an affair, not even a member of the Chen family, so what qualifications do you have to order us around now?"

"You—" Chen Shou's face flushed with anger. "It's just a baseless rumor and slander, and you actually believed it? The other party left that sentence deliberately, clearly trying to sow discord!"

"Even if they're trying to sow discord, so what? You two bastards who've usurped our throne, don't even think about riding on the shoulders of our Chen family anymore!"

Chen Shou was filled with shame and anger, and couldn't help but look at the other members of the Chen family, hoping that someone among them would side with him.

However, to his disappointment, these people just looked at him coldly and had no intention of helping him. It was obvious that they regarded him as a bastard.

Chen Shou was extremely angry and became increasingly frightened.

If he loses the support of these Chen family members, he and Chen Shaoke will really become fish on the chopping board, and can only be slaughtered at will!
