"Negotiate with me? Are there still people from your Dark Night Group here?" Huo Shen grabbed Xiao Ling's collar and whispered in his ear, "I've surrounded this place. Even if there's a tunnel in the room, you can't escape."

Xiao Ling sneered, "It's okay if I can't escape, but the Ye family's men are already here."

At this moment, Xicheng rushed in, "It's bad, Master Huo, the Nanyang army has surrounded this place, and they have tanks."

"Ye Chen! You haven't even become president yet, yet you dare to mobilize the army!" Huo Shen pointed his gun at Ye Chen. Ye Xiu immediately stood in front of Ye Chen and pointed his gun at Huo Shen.

The atmosphere at the scene was extremely tense. Xiao Ling clapped his hands twice. "It's pretty much what I expected!"

Lin Jiu stepped forward and stood between Huo Shen and Ye Xiu's guns. "You are all the closest people to me. I don't want to see any of you get into trouble. Everything is caused by me. If we have to come to a conclusion today, I hope it's me who will die. I won't live past 25 anyway."

Ye Xiu and Huo Shen pushed Lin Jiu away at the same time and pointed their guns at each other.

The tense situation in the room resurfaced.

"Everyone, put down your guns!" Ye Chen stood in front of Ye Xiu and pressed his chest against Huo Shen's gun. "Mobilizing the army is nothing. I can do anything for Xiaojiu. Actually... Xiaojiu is a descendant of the Xiao family. I knew it from the moment I knew she was my sister."

"Brother! What on earth is going on?" Ye Yan felt a little dizzy. He stepped forward and grabbed Ye Chen's sleeve, "Brother, explain clearly."

"Back then, my grandfather, Ye Geng, tried his best to get my father to leave Xiaojiu's mother, Tang Shiwen. Later, after learning that Xiaojiu had been born, he went to the Lin family to assassinate her. But when he saw Xiaojiu's eyes, he couldn't bring himself to do it. He then tried his best to conceal Xiaojiu's affairs, but the rest of the Ye family still secretly tried to dig up Xiaojiu's secrets. Before he died, my grandfather told me to protect my sister."

Ye Chen patted Ye Yan's shoulder and said, "So the disappearance of your second brother Ye Yu is not only to strike a blow against Helian Mou, but also to secretly hide the fact that Lin Jiu is a descendant of the Xiao family."

"What!" Xiao Ling pushed Ye Yan away and pointed his gun at him. "Ye Chen, your Ye family is really insidious. It turns out that the person who hides the deepest is you!"

"You have brought this upon yourself!"

The unfamiliar voice made everyone look towards the door. A man wearing the uniform of a senior executive of the Dark Night Group was standing at the door. He was Xiao Ling's secretary and Old Lady Tang's adopted son.

"Xiao Ling! As the leader of the Dark Night Group, you abused your power for personal gain. You stopped the Dark Night Group's laboratory research on the Xiao family's genetic disease. Instead, you allowed the group to conduct biochemical experiments for your own selfish interests. You colluded with Helian Mou of the Nanyang Kingdom and disregarded human life!

Just because you didn't inherit the Xiao family's genetic disease, you are so cruel to other members of the Xiao family. What you did goes against the original intention of establishing the Dark Night Group. Now all the patriarchs of the Xiao family are united against you, so on behalf of the Dark Night Group's senior management meeting, I announce that you are dismissed!

The new master candidate is the only person in the Xiao family who currently has the right of inheritance, the granddaughter of the previous master, Lin Jiu! "

Everyone present was shocked by this sudden change.

Before anyone could react, Xiao Ling pointed the gun at Lin Jiu and pulled the trigger hard.

Bang--

Blood splattered everywhere.

Before he fired the second shot, Ye Chen kicked him away.

However, Lin Jiu's abdomen had already started to bleed. Although Huo Shen stood in front of Lin Jiu at the first moment, it was too late.
