Chapter 165 The Truth About Death!
At this moment, Chu Tianjiao, already in Jinling, had a terrifyingly grim expression on his face, and the bulging veins on his forehead were enough to prove his fury!
He never expected that even with Ye Longchen stepping forward, Qin Jiang still hadn't submitted to him!
No, that's not right!
Ye Longchen surely hadn't put his heart into it!
Taking a deep breath, he said, "Qin Jiang, don't get too smug, what awaits you is nothing but hell and the abyss. You might avoid the first day, but you'll certainly not the fifteenth!"
After saying that, Chu Tianjiao hung up the phone directly.
Ye Longchen smiled, "Chu Tianjiao is no fool; he must have guessed that I have ulterior motives. My original plan was to let you take the blame and then monopolize the potion and the pharmaceutical staff by myself. Now, it seems impossible."
"However, even if I can't monopolize it, I can still cooperate with you. You must know that this potion is extremely risky, and the slightest carelessness could lead to the destruction of a clan!"
Qin Jiang's eyes flickered, "Mrs. Zhao, isn't it time you tell us what this potion is?"
"The Strengthening Potion, which can alter certain genetic sequences and enhance ordinary people, if successfully developed, humans with enhanced strength will be no weaker than martial artists in the Transformation Realm!"
As Zhao Yuefei's words fell, Qin Jiang's pupils contracted sharply!
The Zhao Couple had actually left behind such a terrifying and unheard-of potion! The effects, if successfully developed, could actually enable ordinary people to enhance themselves to the level of martial artists in the Transformation Realm?

If this is true, then what Ye Longchen said isn't just a bluff!
The higher-ups wouldn't allow such a potion to appear in this world!
It would lead to utter chaos!
Taking a deep breath, Zhao Yuefei said, "This is the life's work that my parents devoted themselves to. I can't give it up. Moreover, as long as it is properly controlled, this potion will not only avoid disaster but also benefit mankind!"
At this, Zhao Yuefei turned towards Ye Longchen and asked solemnly, "How do you want to cooperate? Do you help me cover up the development of the potion, and then I'll provide you with the potion?"
Qin Jiang looked intently at Ye Longchen.
Through brief interaction, he understood well that Ye Longchen was ruthless and meticulous, the kind of person who wouldn't even take Chu Tianjiao seriously, twisting him around his finger as he liked!
It's hard to tell whether Zhao Yuefei's choice to cooperate with him was good or bad, but with the situation having reached this point, there was no turning back!
In the end, Zhao Yuefei just couldn't bear to give up on her parents' legacy. That was the crux of the problem, and she had to wade through this muddy water, come what may!
"Exactly," Ye Longchen nodded, "I'll support you from behind, helping not only to hide the potion's development but also to ensure the safety of you and the pharmaceutical staff."
"Chu Tianjiao has already found out through Fang Cheng the uses of the potion, and he definitely won't let it go easily. With my help, at least you'll be safer here."
He said with an amused smile, "As for Qin here, I can't interfere too much. You'd better fight Chu Tianjiao to the death, keep him too busy to target Mrs. Zhao."
Upon hearing this, Qin Jiang had to admit that this was indeed the best approach at the moment.
Since Ye Longchen, the deputy head of the Martial Arts Bureau, was willing to protect Zhao Yuefei, that was naturally the best outcome—Chu Tianjiao would be cautious and unable to harm Zhao Yuefei easily.
"This is quite a surprise. What kind of deal is it that makes you, Little Chen, take it so seriously?" The hearty laughter of Elder Mr. Shen rang out as he strode into the office.
Those who came with him stood guard outside.
Even Chen Jiuheng, who had accompanied him all the way, stayed at the door.
"Elder Mr. Shen," Qin Jiang acknowledged with a nod.
Zhao Yuefei also greeted him politely.
Though Shen Tianrong had retired from his position, his influence and connections were not to be underestimated!
"A deal that would strengthen the Martial Arts Bureau and your old master can't refuse," Ye Longchen got up to greet him, showing great respect.
Hearing this, Shen Tianrong glanced at the sealed room, then at the twelve pharmaceutical staff members, and finally looked at Zhao Yuefei with a complex expression, "It seems that the potion your parents did not manage to finish has continued."
"Elder Shen knew my parents?"
Zhao Yuefei's lovely face changed, and she hurriedly asked, "Does Elder Shen know who sent my parents to prison, and who caused their death there?"
Qin Jiang was equally concerned about this matter, because Zhao Yuefei's parents had once cared for him!
"If Elder Shen knows, please enlighten us!" said Qin Jiang.
Elder Mr. Shen nodded, "Your parents' sudden deaths in prison surely had a cause, and according to my speculation, there were indeed several powers eyeing your parents at that time."
"Currently, the prime suspect is Chu Tianjiao."
"Three years ago, his visit to Jiangcheng was specifically for the sake of the Gene Potion."
