Chapter 1741: I Can Give You a Hand

"You wouldn't want the important figures of your entire family to turn into monsters, would you? You yourself wouldn't want that either, right?"

"Of course I don't." Qiongsi gritted his teeth: "But if I inherit everything from the family, I can only be at the mercy of those elders; this is a fate I cannot escape."

"Nothing is absolute. Perhaps I can give you a hand," Chen Yu said indifferently: "For example, by breaking free from the control of the Shilaike Family's elder council and turning the family into what you want it to be."

"Really?" Qiongsi couldn't help but look at Chen Yu; he was tempted.

"Heh, of course it's true. Who would complain about having too many allies?" Chen Yu couldn't help but smile slightly.

"Then? Are we considered to be in a cooperative relationship from now on?" Qiongsi asked Chen Yu tentatively.

"Of course, as long as you are sincere, we will be in a cooperative relationship from now on," Chen Yu smiled slightly.

"Then I still don't know who you are." Qiongsi pondered, quickly calculating how much benefit he could gain if he cooperated with Chen Yu.

"Chen Yu, a Dharma Cultivator from Huaxia." Chen Yu smiled slightly: "I can also let you live to be one hundred and fifty years old, just through a different method."

"You can do that too?" Qiongsi was startled, and he couldn't help but take a few more looks at Chen Yu.

"You can choose not to believe it, but don't doubt my ability," Chen Yu glanced at him and said: "For a Dharma Cultivator from Huaxia, one hundred and fifty years is just the starting point, and with every realm advanced, one's lifespan increases exponentially; those at the pinnacle can even live as long as heaven and earth."

"The longevity I speak of is a true extension of life, using some Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures as well as Spirit Medicine to let you live to that age normally, without needing to have others' blood enter your heart."

"At the same time, it won't cause your body to mutate and turn into a monster."

Qiongsi was tempted, but he still held a little bit of doubt regarding Chen Yu's words.

After all, it was the first time the two had met, so it was normal for him not to trust Chen Yu.

"You seem not to believe me?" Chen Yu smiled slightly; he naturally knew what this guy was thinking inside.

"Give me some time to consider it." Qiongsi steadied himself; he felt the impact was too great for him.

"You don't have time to consider. If you think I'm lying to you, then I'll send you on your way. If it's not a cooperative relationship, then we can only be enemies," Chen Yu sneered.

"No, no, let's talk this over. I believe you, I believe you. From now on, we are in a cooperative relationship. As long as I take power, I can provide any information to you," Qiongsi immediately caved.

Now, face or no face was no longer important; what was important was to save his life first.

"Then you have to show some sincerity." Chen Yu pointed his right hand into the void, and Qiongsi suddenly went stiff, unable to move at all.

His mouth opened wide, and a centipede crawled out from Chen Yu's sleeve. This centipede was colorful and dazzling; one look and it was clearly a highly poisonous creature.

This centipede quickly moved its legs, crawling directly into his mouth along Qiongsi's body.

"Ah..." Qiongsi clutched his throat and screamed in pain; he felt the centipede's body tossing and turning in his stomach until it finally went silent.

He lay on the ground, his forehead covered in cold sweat, gasping for air as he looked at Chen Yu in terror: "What did you do to me?"

"This bug is called a Gu, a way we have in Huaxia to control people; you can also understand it as a Descending Head," Chen Yu smiled slightly: "From now on, you will listen to whatever I say. If you don't obey, I can make you die without a burial place at any time."

"You get this thing out, and I'll listen to everything you say. Everything I said is true, Big Brother..." Qiongsi frantically clawed at his throat, retching repeatedly, trying to get the centipede that had crawled into his stomach out.

But all he vomited was the wine he had just drunk; that centipede, which was fully twenty centimeters long, had simply disappeared without a trace in his stomach.

"I advise you not to waste your effort," Chen Yu shook his head and said: "This thing dissolves into blood and water, lurking in your stomach. It's just sleeping now, but as soon as I wake it up, it will gnaw through your intestines and gnaw through your heart, making you die in extreme pain."

"So, about today's matter, will you think it over carefully?"

"No need to think anymore. From now on, you are my master; whatever you tell me to do, I will do," Qiongsi scrambled up and said without the slightest hesitation.

Just kidding, such a long bug had just crawled into his stomach; if it were really as Chen Yu said, he would be under someone else's control from now on.

Between not obeying and staying alive, he definitely had to choose staying alive. Besides, the person in front of him dared to go head-to-head with the God Lord and seemed like a ruthless person, so this time he had no choice but to bet his life and fortune on this guy.

"First, tell me what you are doing here at Yichuan Ping's place? Picking up goods?" Chen Yu asked.

"Yes, the God Lord needs a batch of powerful and wealthy people now, so he entrusted us to get them. The Ichikawa Family built their fortune on this in the past, so we sought them out," Qiongsi said honestly.

"How many did you find?" Chen Yu asked.

"In the basement, there are probably a few dozen people," Qiongsi thought for a moment.

"Take me there." Chen Yu waved his hand.

"Mr. Chen, the Ichikawa Family side should have already received the news; we need to leave as soon as possible," Kawasaki Changye whispered a reminder.

"I know, but if we leave empty-handed just like this, then our operation tonight has no meaning," Chen Yu smiled slightly: "To completely topple the Ichikawa Family, how can we do it without getting something substantial?"

"Alright, everything will be as Mr. Chen says," Kawasaki Changye nodded.

He had been completely conquered by Chen Yu's strength, so in the time to come, he would try every possible way to gain Chen Yu's approval.

In the basement, a group of people were locked in cages.

These people had very extraordinary clothing and bearing; it was clear they were not from ordinary families.

Moreover, some of them had been locked here for quite a long time and had suffered quite a bit of torture, so when someone came, they all shrank back in terror.

"Pick a few who have done a lot of evil deeds in their daily lives to send to the God Lord to fulfill the quota, and let the others go," Chen Yu said indifferently.

"Yes, that's no problem, but after these people go out, will they talk nonsense?" Qiongsi asked with some concern.

"You don't need to worry about that. These people are not fools; after they go out, they definitely won't talk nonsense," Chen Yu said.

Yes, saving their lives was paramount. These people had been tortured here for so long and had also witnessed Yichuan Ping's methods, so even if they went out, they wouldn't talk nonsense in order to save their own lives.

"I want to topple the Ichikawa Family; relying on just these people won't work," Chen Yu shook his head slowly. He glanced at Qiongsi: "You are the closest to the Ichikawa Family, so I have reason to believe you know more of their secrets."
