Super Gene Hunting Ground

Yuri looked at Duan Jinjiang dumbfounded.

Duan Jinjiang had a troubled expression on his face as he looked at Yuri,

"Lord Yu, we pay so much protection fee to your City Lord every year, at critical moments, shouldn’t you step in to protect us, maintain justice, uphold fairness, and safeguard the peace and harmony of the Central Continent?

Are you just going to let Yang Xiao disturb the commercial system and peaceful living environment that have existed in Central Continent for thousands of years?"

Yuri looked at Duan Jinjiang, and secretly sighed,

You shrewd one, to find such a reason.

Yuri smiled slightly and said:

"President Duan, don’t worry, we need to understand the specifics first, we’re not aware of the situation. How about this, I’ll inform the City Lord, and let him make the decision when he comes."

"Good, I’ll trouble you then, Lord Yu."

Duan Jinjiang spoke while taking out two bags of crystal disks from his Space Ring and handed them to him,

"This is ten million crystal disks, please do not laugh, Lord Yu."

Yuri quickly accepted the crystal disks, put them into his Space Ring, and chuckled:

"President Duan, please sit for a while, have some tea and rest, I’ll immediately report to the City Lord."

"Thank you."

"Courteous!"

After Yuri finished speaking, he suddenly called out,

"Someone, serve tea, serve tea to President Duan,

You bunch of blockheads, President Duan is a distinguished guest, and you’re not even serving tea, where are your manners?"

Several guards and servants in the hall were momentarily shocked.

It was clearly Yuri who had instructed beforehand not to serve tea to Duan Jinjiang and others, to cold-shoulder them, and now he blamed the servants.

Two maids quickly ran over, bowed their heads to apologize to Yuri, and served tea to Duan Jinjiang and Ma Xiaotian.

Yuri chuckled,

"President Duan, have tea, I will report to the City Lord."

After speaking, he turned and walked out.

Ba Tianhu naturally wasn’t cultivating any techniques, as for him, his genetic evolution had long reached a bottleneck impossible to breakthrough, he had accepted it.

For decades, apart from maintaining regular cultivation, he no longer hoped to improve his genetic evolution level.

The Emperor Level Middle Stage Realm isn’t something ordinary people can reach.

Ba Tianhu was deliberately avoiding to be seen.

Upon hearing the guard report that Duan Jinjiang was seeking an audience, he immediately discussed with Think Tank Yuri, he evaded to the backyard while Yuri attended to Duan Jinjiang, to listen to what he had to say.

Ba Tianhu was in the garden pavilion in the backyard playing chess with the Deputy City Lord, seeing Yuri approaching, he smiled immediately:

"Think Tank, what did Duan Jinjiang say?"

Yuri laughed and said:

"Boss, this Duan Jinjiang is quite sly, he claimed to pay us protection fees annually, now facing difficulties, being bullied by Yang Xiao, disrupting his business, he says we have the duty and responsibility to protect him and help him eliminate Yang Xiao."

"What?"

Ba Tianhu was furious, his long white beard stood up in anger and he slapped the stone table, which shattered into pieces.

"Absurd, turning the tables, clearly his Duan Jinjiang participated in besieging the City of Hope, angering Yang Xiao, and was protected by Yang Xiao,

He then hired the Dark Web to assassinate Yang Xiao, but the assassination failed, and he’s now at a loss,

Now he dares to put the blame on me, fine, I’ll go and question Duan Jinjiang personally, see what he means?"

Ba Tianhu strode forward.

Think Tank Yuri immediately grabbed Ba Tianhu, saying:

"Boss, don’t rush, don’t rush, logically speaking, we do receive 200 million crystal disks annually from the Vulture Chamber of Commerce, helping them when in trouble, is also right."

"Hm, right? The boss doesn’t step in, I’ll see what Duan Jinjiang can do to me?"

...

In the hall, Duan Jinjiang and Second Elder Ma Xiaotian exchanged a glance, whispering:

"President, do you think Ba Tianhu will come out to see us?"

Duan Jinjiang cunningly smiled,

"Relax, Ba Tianhu will come out to see us shortly, watch and see, I just said it’s their responsibility to provoke him, wait and see, he’ll come out soon."

Just as they were speaking, heavy footsteps could be heard from afar, Ba Tianhu burst into the hall in a fury, his eyes flashing sharp glances at Duan Jinjiang.

Duan Jinjiang immediately stood up, bowed, then knelt down with a loud "thud", crying out:

"Boss, save me, save our Vulture Chamber of Commerce!"

Ba Tianhu originally charged over in anger ready to interrogate Duan Jinjiang.

To him, he always endured the soft but not the hard, how could he tolerate Duan Jinjiang questioning or challenging him?

However, he never expected, upon seeing him, Duan Jinjiang immediately knelt down, bawling.

Geez, what does this mean?

Ba Tianhu was bewildered.

Behind him, Think Tank Yuri and Deputy City Lord Chi Qing were equally bewildered.

What’s going on here?

Can’t hit the smiling face, Duan Jinjiang already kneeled and cried, Ba Tianhu couldn’t possibly slap him, right?

"Ahem, Duan, President Duan, what are you doing? Why cry, talk about it properly, talk properly."

Ba Tianhu suddenly felt a surge of compassion, an urge to protect him.

After all, Duan Jinjiang could be considered half his little brother, this big brother naturally has the responsibility to protect him when he’s aggrieved.

Second Elder Ma Xiaotian looked at Duan Jinjiang, deeply impressed.

Impressive, I admire no one except you!

Duan Jinjiang naturally didn’t rise immediately, instead crawled a few steps forward, clutching Ba Tianhu’s leg, wiping his tear-stained face on Ba Tianhu’s pants while sobbing and said:

"Boss, you have to save our Vulture Chamber of Commerce, otherwise we’ll be doomed, and never be able to show our devotion to you."

"Duan Jinjiang, get up first and say what you mean, this doesn’t suit your status. You’re the president, to be laughed at by the juniors isn’t right. Speak your problem, I promise to solve it."

"Boss, I don’t fear being laughed at, I, Duan Jinjiang, am your little brother, without you covering me, how would our Vulture Chamber of Commerce develop smoothly these decades?

My life belongs to you, Boss. If you want my life, I’ll give it anytime, I would risk everything for you, and would die with no regrets."

Ba Tianhu was suddenly moved.

What a loyal little brother!

How can I stand by and watch during Duan Jinjiang’s hardships? How can I have the face to ask him for money?

"Sigh, Duan Jinjiang, isn’t it just the matter with that brat Yang Xiao? What a trivial thing, rest assured, I’ll help you handle it."

"Boss, you’re truly my reincarnated parents, no, even better than my parents!"
