"Shen Chong, Xia He... it's time for you to make a choice. Do you want to stay by my side and help the evildoer, or do you want to get out of this quagmire immediately? According to Yang Zhu's philosophy, I don't intend to force you to make a choice."
"Heh heh, the young Mutant from that shabby hotel has finally become a top figure in the circle. I, Shen Chong, am the first person here to come in contact with you, Sect Leader. Naturally, I want to see how far you can go in the end."
"Of course I'll let you see it. At least you won't find it boring. So, Xia He... what about you?"
"My dear Mr. Sect Leader, what you said sounds nice, but I'm already on your pirate ship, and the company's docks are no longer reliable. What's more, I've done so much for you as your right-hand man. How can you leave without getting anything in return?"
"Very good..." Liu Xiaojiang looked at Shen Chong and Xia He, who still wanted to follow him. Although he wasn't too surprised by their choice, he was still satisfied that there were still people he could use.
"I don't intend to promise you anything. I just want to say that you've made a very wise choice. If you're willing to stay by my side and follow me into this quagmire... then you're my two true friends in this world."
"I, Yinggou, will never disappoint my friends..."

Three days later.
The Northeast Region of the Omnicom branch.
The new director of the board of directors was appointed. The company headquarters was busy meeting with the major Mutant forces. On the one hand, Su Cheng needed to understand the situation of the major sects. On the other hand, he wanted to announce his sovereignty over Omnicom.
At this time, all the sects that expressed their support for Su Cheng received unexpected treatment from the company. They had been discussing with Zhao Fangxu about joining the 'Truth-seeking Association' of the Ten Old Men. After expressing their support for Su Cheng, they successfully became one of the Ten Old Men.
While the company's top management was dealing with the trivial matters after Su Cheng's appointment, the directors of the various regions were not idle either. They were all dealing with the actions of the righteous people in the circle. In layman's terms, they were cleaning up the mess caused by Su Cheng's appointment.
However, except for the directors of the various regions, the employees of the various regions were not aware of the inside story. They were busy because they were more or less wondering why the situation had become so chaotic recently...
...
In the office of the person-in-charge.
"Mr. Su asked us to send more people to the Truth-seeking Association to prevent Miss Gao from suffering another disaster because of the all-sex demon. Her existence and the resources she consumes … The company is also very concerned about it."
A burly young man in orange sportswear was sitting on the sofa in the office, drinking tea. His three-inch-long hair was meticulously styled with hair gel. It was even deliberately combed into a 30-70 split, which inevitably made people feel that it was very rustic.
"Huang Chuang, how dare the Swallow Martial Hall interfere with the Gao Family's matters?"
Gao Lian sat at his desk, still wearing the same cap on his head. His eyes under his glasses looked at the young man in the room, obviously feeling a little impatient.
"Mr. Gao, please watch your words. There is no Yan Wu Hall anymore."
Huang Chuang knew very well why Gao Lian was unhappy. However, considering the cooperation between the Truth-seeking Association and Su Cheng, he stubbornly put down the teacup in his hand.
"The Truth-seeking Association is now one of the Ten Bosses' forces. Their right to speak in the circle is no weaker than the other bosses. Even the company's directors have to give them some face. Since the Gao Family is working under the company, they should cooperate with Mr. Su's decision."
Bam!
Gao Lian couldn't help but clench his fist and smash it on the table. "I've already said that Er Zhuang's current condition is not suitable to be moved. It's even more impossible for you people to transport him to the company's headquarters. If something happens to him on the way, can Su Cheng bear the responsibility?"
"It's not like he hasn't sent people to check on Er Zhuang's condition recently. He should know that Er Zhuang hasn't shown any signs of waking up. Is the Gao Family so unworthy of Mr. Su's trust?!"
"Mr. Gao, Mr. Su is naturally aware of this matter …" Huang Chuang shook his head indifferently.
"When he decided to transfer Miss Gao to the company's headquarters for treatment and protection, he also considered the possibility of encountering an accident along the way. Therefore, apart from us from the Truth-seeking Association, Mr. Wang's disciple, Miss Hu Lanlan, also came along …"
"The disciple of Mr. Wang Zizhong? Does Mr. Gao still think that he can't trust her …?"
Gao Lian was startled when he heard the name "Hu Lanlan", but then he frowned again and shook his head.
"If Er Zhuang's injuries were only internal and external, she should have woken up by today. No one can heal her mental injuries, and mental strength is very important to a Mutant like Er Zhuang. We can only patiently wait for her to wake up on her own."
"Unfortunately, Mr. Gao can't give a specific time …" Huang Chuang stood up and said.
"Boss Su ordered us to transfer Miss Gao safely to the company's headquarters for treatment before tomorrow. There's the most advanced medical equipment in the secret castle there. I believe that this will definitely wake Miss Gao up as soon as possible."
"Mr. Gao, please give me a clear answer as soon as possible within three hours. This way, we can still transfer Miss Gao before nightfall. Otherwise … I really don't want to see the former Gao Family decline completely because of a misguided Allomancer."
"Are you threatening me, threatening the Gao family, one of our own?" Gao Lian narrowed his eyes and said.
"Of course not …" Huang Chuang naturally wouldn't admit that this was a threat. "But if you want to say that you're one of our own, it depends on what Mr. Gao plans to do in the future."
However …
At this moment …
Dong dong dong …
Suddenly, someone knocked on the office door from the outside.
"Old Gao, there … there are a few people who want to see you. They're outside the door with me now. Is it … convenient for you?" Old Liu's voice immediately came into the room.
Hearing this …
Gao Lian's already extremely confused heart suddenly became even more irritated. "What do you mean by convenient or not! Don't you know that I'm in the middle of a meeting! No matter who it is now, I'll … "
However, before Gao Lian could finish his words, someone pushed open the door from the outside. Liu Xiaojiang slowly walked into the person-in-charge's office, causing Gao Lian, the 'old leader', to be stunned.
"You … You are …"
Liu Xiaojiang stood in front of the sofa in the room and looked at Gao Lian, who was in a daze at the desk. When he heard the voice, he turned his head to look at the unfamiliar burly man. After confirming that the other party was not an employee of the Northeast Region, he quickly waved his arm without hesitation.
Crack!!!
Huang Chuang's neck was broken in an instant. The huge impact even caused his head to spin around a few times while hanging on his neck ….
