"Chen Wenshu, you're joking. Isn't this the recent notice from headquarters? It's the plan you mentioned a while ago to develop Xijin City. Our Gu family intends to accept this plan, but we're short of someone to actually execute it."

"Who?"

"The chief executive officer of the project, Xuanyuan Lie."

"Oh? Xuanyuan Lie? Do you know who he is?"

Hearing the slightly surprised voice on the other end of the phone, Gu Li nodded.

"Of course, he's my chief executive, Chen Wenshu. Can you do it?"

Chen Moyu was silent for a while, and after a while, he said:

"Huaihai City's recent construction plan still lacks an executor."

"Just leave it to our Gu family."

"Location."

"Gusu 017."

After the call was hung up, Gu Licai took another sip of tea.

"Jia Xin, how are you feeling lately?"

Jia Xin thought about it, then shook her head and smiled at Gu Li:

"I feel much better now, but I'm not used to being able to get out of bed and walk all of a sudden after lying in bed for so long."

Gu Li took her hand and asked her to sit next to him, then smiled at her and said:

"After all, I just recovered from a serious illness. How can I adapt so quickly? I just need to exercise more for a while and I'll be fine."

"It's okay, you don't have to worry about me." Jia Xin shook her head, then looked at Gu Li seriously.

"Ali, you should be more careful."

Although Jia Xin didn't explicitly say what to be careful about, Gu Li naturally understood. He smiled and hugged Jia Xin in his arms.

"Don't worry, I'll be fine."

As the breeze caressed the yard, the colorful flowers swayed slowly. In the quiet and peaceful space, there were only two figures leaning against each other.

After years of ups and downs in the business world, only this small courtyard can give Gu Li a moment of peace.

Chapter 168 Can this be done behind the scenes?

As Fang Sheng's plane landed, it was of course Gu Li who came to pick him up.

Although the power in Guangzhou and Shenzhen was established by Xuanyuan Lie, the management was taken over by Gu Li. So when Fang Sheng, the boss, came, he, the second-in-command, naturally had to come and take over.

After getting in the car, Fang Sheng asked Gu Li a question.

"What is the current situation in Guangzhou and Shenzhen?"

Gu Li thought about it.

"The biggest thing that happened recently was that Baili Xin was going to hold a birthday party. He even invited celebrities from all walks of life and night watchmen from various counties to attend."

"Is the Gu family also among them?"

Gu Li shook his head and continued driving calmly.

"As a hostile force to the Baili family, the Gu family will certainly not receive an invitation from the Baili family."

Listening to Gu Li's words, Fang Sheng nodded. Just as Gu Li said, hostile forces would naturally not receive invitations, so Fang Sheng was not surprised by this. After all, the Gu family was not mentioned in the original book, so he guessed that they did not go at that time.

But before Fang Sheng could ask again, Gu Li added another sentence.

"But I received an invitation."

"what?"

Gu Li's words surprised Fang Sheng.

"He sent you an invitation?"

Gu Li nodded, his tone still indifferent.

"He invited me to his birthday party on a personal basis."

After listening to Gu Li's words, Fang Sheng was stunned for a moment, then smiled.

"It seems that you are indeed very famous in Guangzhou and Shenzhen."

Listening to Fang Sheng's words, Gu Li just smiled and said something modest.

"It's just a small reputation, not as famous as you, Boss."

Fang Sheng waved his hand.

"Come to think of it, I haven't heard anything about you since you followed me two years ago. So, I have this opportunity today. Can you tell me about your time in Guangzhou and Shenzhen?"

Hearing Fang Sheng's words, Gu Li, who was driving and waiting for the traffic light, was also stunned, and then smiled with relief.

"The boss wants to hear it, so I'll tell him.

Actually, my reputation in Guangzhou and Shenzhen is not very good. After all, the Gu family started out in the underworld. But compared to those older guys, I am quite famous among the younger generation.

In every gathering I attend, whether it's Baili Jing, the adopted son of the Baili family, or the young masters and young ladies from other factions, they have always been just supporting roles. Although I am from the younger generation, I have already become a benchmark with Baili Xin and others..."

While listening to Gu Li's story, Fang Sheng looked at the scenery receding outside the car window, not knowing what he was thinking.

After a while, Fang Sheng finally responded.

"It seems that your reputation is indeed quite loud. No wonder the Baili family invited you."

Gu Li chuckled as he drove.

"It's just a tactic to sow discord. Baili Xin is always thinking about strengthening the Baili family. So even on his own birthday, he didn't forget to target our Gu family."

Inexplicably, Fang Sheng asked Gu Li a question.

"Speaking of which, how did you feel when you went from being an ordinary person to becoming the head of the Gu family? And why did you become the head of the Gu family?"

Speaking of which, Fang Sheng is quite curious about Gu Li.

Being able to become the head of the Gu family as an ordinary person must have many stories behind it.

In response to Fang Sheng's question, Gu Li was silent for a moment, and then he slowly spoke.

“Ordinary people like the Gu family cannot decide their own marriage.

But the head of the family can.

So I became the head of the family.

As for my feelings at that time..."

Speaking of this, Gu Li paused for a moment and smiled:

“No matter how big the waves are, they are still under the boat; no matter how high the bright mountains are, they are still under people’s feet.”

Hearing Gu Li's words, Fang Sheng also laughed.

"You are ambitious, so practice the Dao of Law well. In this extraordinary world, in the end, yourself is everything."

"That's what the boss said."

As the two of them gradually started talking, the car slowly stopped inside the Gu family's manor.

After getting off the car, Fang Sheng began to arrange the next things.

"When is the Baili family's banquet?"

"Tomorrow." Gu Li replied.

Fang Sheng nodded, thought for a moment, and said to Gu Li.

"Call over one thousand believers who have opened their sea of ​​consciousness."

"One thousand?" Gu Li was surprised for a moment and said, "Boss, a thousand people are a bit too dense. If we gather them all at once, I'm afraid our position will be exposed."

Fang Sheng nodded.

"I know, but it doesn't matter. After tomorrow, we will completely abandon our overt deployment in Guangzhou and Shenzhen. So, apart from these 1,000 people, the rest will be transferred to other cities."

Give up the layout of Guangzhou and Shenzhen?

Gu Li was stunned for a moment after listening to Fang Sheng's words.

Although he didn't know what would happen tomorrow, he could guess that Fang Sheng would make a big move tomorrow.

After a moment, Gu Li nodded and spoke again.

"Boss, we should probably give up on Gusu too, because Xuanyuan Lie was captured by the Night Watch some time ago, and his location is probably exposed."

Fang Sheng was also stunned when he heard Gu Li's words.

"Caught by the Night's Watch? He failed to defeat the 017 Night's Watch?"

To be honest, in Fang Sheng's estimation, even if Xuanyuan Lie was caught, he should not be caught in Gusu. With his strength, only those stronger teams should be able to catch him. After all, the current captain of the Gusu team is only at the Sea Realm.

Gu Li nodded, then shook his head.

"Although he was captured, it was probably another team that took action. According to the information I received, the Gusu team is still fully wounded and they probably don't have the energy to attack him."

Another team?

Hearing this, Fang Sheng narrowed his eyes.

It looks like it should be Lin Qiye’s team.

If it was Lin Qiye, it wouldn't be unfair for Ali to be caught. Not to mention that Lin Qiye himself has the ability to be possessed by gods, Galan is also a bug-level existence. Even Fang Sheng now may not be able to break Galan's defense.

After thinking for a moment, Fang Sheng asked:

"So where is he now? Has he been sent to a fasting center?"

Gu Li shook his head and said, "I had someone intercept it. It should have reached Huaihai by now."

Fang Sheng was stunned. Although he knew that Gu Li had his own network of connections in the Night Watch, he did not expect that Gu Li could manipulate the connections in the Night Watch directly behind the scenes. However, due to the special circumstances at the moment, he did not ask any more questions. After all, he was not very interested.

"Then let him stay in Huaihai for now. Also, after tomorrow, let's completely shift our influence from the open to the covert."

"Boss, can you tell me exactly how big a project you're planning? That way it will be easier for me to arrange it."

Fang Sheng thought about it for a moment before speaking slowly.

"I'm going to massacre another county. This time, I'll choose the more remote Guangning County."

As Gu Li was stunned, Fang Sheng stopped explaining and walked straight into the house.

This time is different from the last massacre of the county. The last time, the name of the Ancient God Church was used as a barrier, but this time, even if the name of the Ancient God Church was used again, it would be unnecessary.

Chapter 169 There is no free benefit in the world.

The last time the entire county was massacred, Fang Sheng transformed into the appearance of a snake woman and did it under the identity of the Ancient God Church. Moreover, in that massacre, after he killed everyone, he left the snake woman's body behind, which was considered a closed-loop solution to the incident.

However, although he took away many corpses in the name of sacrifice for the Ancient God Church, it was still a bit perfunctory. If he did it again now, the headquarters would immediately spot this, even with Gu Li's connections to cover for him.

So this time, he simply gave up all the overt arrangements and completely turned to the dark side.

While Fang Sheng was distributing poisonous insects to everyone, he was also thinking carefully about his own affairs.

Tomorrow is the day when the Baili family will be in chaos. It is definitely too late for him to study the poisonous insect that can store souls now. Moreover, this poisonous insect is not so easy to refine. If it were easy to refine, Fang Sheng would not have failed to refine it for such a long time.

But it was also okay. During the few months he was imprisoned in Fengdu, he refined a large amount of soul-binding Gu. This preparation was enough for him to achieve his goal this time.

After the thousand people in front of him had received ten Soul-Binding Gu and one Void Gu, Fang Sheng told them what to do next.

"Tomorrow, you will follow my instructions and go to Guangning County to hide. When I tell you to move, you will start collecting Gu materials. Do you understand?"

Listening to Fang Sheng's words, everyone's faces looked a little unhappy.

With such a big power, it is naturally impossible for everyone to obey Fang Sheng's orders, let alone asking them to kill people indiscriminately without any reason. You know, wars have always required a legitimate reason.

Looking at the people in front of him with unhappy expressions, Fang Sheng didn't care. He smiled faintly and continued.

"I won't beat around the bush with you. Since you've taken my power, you should understand there will be a price to pay."

As Fang Sheng finished speaking, everyone knelt on the ground instantly, and clear traces of blood vessels appeared on their skin, which was obviously the ability of the bloodline Gu.

Today's blood descendant Gu is no longer the original one-refined Gu worm, but a five-refined slave Gu worm.
