Luo Chen's words sounded like a demonic voice in his ears.

Chu Qianyu did not expect that Luo Chen would see through her little trick at a glance.

She didn't want to admit it, since she could easily insist it was just a misunderstanding and a coincidence.

But she swallowed the words that were about to come out.

After hesitating for a moment, she finally raised her head and met Luo Chen's cold eyes.

He said, "I do indeed want to use you to kill Zhou Hongye!"

Chu Qianyu knew very well that she shouldn't even think about lying to Luo Chen; the result would only be worse.

Luo Chen was also surprised that Chu Qianyu would admit it so directly.

Then he spoke up: "You're quite honest, aren't you? Tell me, what's your reason?"

"If it's reasonable, perhaps I can spare a single bloodline of your Chu family, so as not to... wipe out the entire clan!"

The moment Luo Chen's icy voice rang out, Chu Qianyu felt a chill run down her spine. To be honest, at that moment, she had already begun to regret it.

Trying to pull these little tricks on Luo Chen is the stupidest thing you can do!

But there was no turning back now, and she could only grit her teeth and say, "I want to cooperate with you!"

"For the same reason as before, I don't want the Chu family to remain trapped in the Five Treasures Society. The Five Treasures Society is clearly not a good place!"

"But I don't know why the higher-ups suddenly sent Zhou Hongye to replace me, intending to target you!"

"I heard you were seriously injured, so I thought I'd prepare a thousand-year-old ginseng to help you heal. But I never expected this guy to steal it from you, and... he even insulted you, calling you a piece of trash... saying that if you dare show your face in front of him again, he'll teach you a lesson!"

"I argued with him, and he hit me!"

After Chu Qianyu finished speaking, she saw that Luo Chen's face was covered with gloom, his face so dark that it seemed as if water could drip from it!

Chu Qianyu paused for a moment, then continued, "I don't know what will happen when Zhou Hongye arrives, but the Wuzang Society is definitely at its most desperate point!"

"Zhou Hongye is an extremely unstable factor here."

"His existence is something neither of us wants to see, so..."

He didn't say anything more.

Luo Chen frowned as he looked at Zhou Hongye's corpse.

If this guy really came to replace Chu Qianyu, then that alone is enough to show that Zhou Hongye is an unstable factor.

For the Supermarket Management Bureau, it really shouldn't exist.

More importantly... this guy actually dared to steal his things!

Damn it, that's really asking for death!

At this moment, Chu Qianyu spoke up again: "If you don't believe me, Officer Luo, I can take you to his office right now. That thousand-year-old ginseng king should still be in his office!"

"This was originally a treasure of my Chu family; it bears our family's mark!"

Luo Chen hesitated, torn between going up or not.

He came to deal with the Dragon-Trapping Nail, but what's the deal with this Thousand-Year-Old Ginseng King?

Does this count as accepting a bribe?

This is bad, really bad!

He frowned, but Chu Qianyu noticed Luo Chen's hesitation and spoke again, saying, "Enforcement Officer Luo, even if we want to start construction now, we need to find workers first, and it will take them time to get here!"

"Perfect timing! I can take Law Enforcement Luo up there for a look. After all, this place was founded by the Five Treasures Society and the Nine Bureaus!"

"It's only right that you go up and check!"

Upon hearing this, Luo Chen nodded, a smile appearing between his brows.

"That makes sense! As an enforcement officer in the traffic management bureau, this is just what I should do!"

After saying that, he was led to the office by Chu Qianyu!

After searching for a while, Chu Qianyu actually found the thousand-year-old ginseng king.

After opening the box and confirming that it was undamaged, Chu Qianyu breathed a sigh of relief.

This was then presented to Luo Chen: "Enforcer Luo, look, this bears the mark of my Chu family. I didn't lie to you, did I?"

"If Enforcement Officer Luo still doesn't believe me, I can pull up the surveillance footage from this office!"

Luo Chen waved his hand and said, "No need, no need!"

To be honest, Luo Chen was also a little envious; this was a thousand-year-old ginseng king.

If he takes it, it might allow him to advance to the seventh level of the Breaking Illusion Realm.

This is a priceless treasure!

Chu Qianyu then directly placed it into Luo Chen's hand, saying, "This originally belonged to Law Enforcement Officer Luo, but it was stolen by Zhou Hongye. Now it's returned to its rightful owner!"

Luo Chen: "????"

Goodness, otherwise you'd be the CEO!

Luo Chen coughed lightly and put it away.

Then I found some 53-degree drinks and some other random things inside.

But Luo Chen said he wasn't interested in any of that.

Chu Qianyu did not insist.

As for any other useful information, Luo Chen found nothing.

That's a bit of a shame.

However, Luo Chen didn't insist on anything; if he couldn't find it, so be it.

It's not that easy!

Just then, the computer on the table made a soft sound—it was the sound of an email.

Chu Qianyu tactfully opened the document, glanced at it briefly, and then exclaimed in astonishment, "Enforcer Luo, it was sent by the Five Treasures Society!"

Upon hearing this, Luo Chen quickly stepped forward and began to look.

The email was simple, instructing Zhou Hongye to prepare some diving equipment, as they were going to visit the underwater ancient city.

Then, Zhou Hongye was asked to meet with Shinichi Fueki of the Ninth Bureau to finalize a time.

"An underwater ancient city? What kind of place is that?"

Chu Qianyu genuinely didn't know. Although An Sheng Group had projects in West Lake, she really didn't know anything about these things.

After all, she is a member of the Chu family, but from a collateral branch, and there are some things she is not entitled to know!

"Beneath West Lake lies this ancient underwater city. It seems the Wuzang Society is preparing to take action there!"

Luo Chen said, pondering in his mind.

And this Shinichi Fueki, Luo Chen didn't expect that these beasts from the Five Treasures Society would actually cooperate with the people from the Ninth Bureau again!

Damn it, that's utterly despicable!

"Reply in Zhou Hongye's tone, and then go prepare some top-quality diving equipment!"

Luo Chen added that he had decided to go and see the underwater ancient city ahead of time!

If it is truly as described in the plans he obtained before, then the underwater ancient city truly contains the cultivation methods of ancient Qi cultivators and some secret techniques of the valley!

These things absolutely cannot fall into the hands of the Five Treasures Society, much less the hands of the Ninth Bureau.

Chu Qianyu was still unclear, her face showing shock, but she nodded and said, "I'll reply tomorrow morning. Given Zhou Hongye's personality, it would be really problematic if he replied so quickly!"

Just as I finished speaking, another phone call came in.

She said the construction team she hired had arrived...
