Chapter 452: Chapter 452: Unite!

"Uh..."

Zhou Yu was stunned.

He hadn’t expected that.

Narrowing his eyes, he looked at Bei Yong and after a moment, he said,

"I cannot trust you."

Bei Yong said without hesitation,

"Mr. Zhou, I am willing to do anything to gain your trust."

Zhou Yu thought for a moment.

"What about a Gu insect?"

Bei Yong’s face changed.

He knew about Gu insects.

After all, the Tiánhu Lake Business Alliance was under the power of Shenwu Hall.

And he had seen the Gu insect techniques of Sun Ling, the Fourth Elder of Shenwu Hall.

Once infected by a Gu insect, one’s fate would be completely in the control of someone else.

However, Bei Yong gritted his teeth,

"I am willing."

Actually, the reason Bei Yong had come to find Zhou Yu early in the morning was that he had already made up his mind.

Last night, when Yang Tianpeng and Zhao Songqing sought trouble with Zhou Yu, they were fiercely stopped by Qi Guochang, and Zhou Yu even wounded Yang Tianpeng.

Bei Yong, a businessman, was best at investing.

Clearly, though Yang Tianpeng represented Punishment Hall and Zhao Songqing of the Zhao Family seemed aggressive, Zhou Yu was young, supremely skilled in both medicine and martial arts, and had the protection of Qi Guochang; his future was undoubtedly great.

So, he had resolved to switch his allegiance to Zhou Yu.

It must be said, this gamble really involved staking all his wealth and life.

Zhou Yu was stunned; he had not expected Bei Yong to make his decision so quickly.

"Alright, I will have the Fourth Elder contact you," he said.

"In the future, if you truly gain my trust, I will let the Fourth Elder remove your Gu insect."

"Thank you, Mr. Zhou," Bei Yong replied.

"Uh... Mr. Zhou,"

Bei Yong hesitated, then spoke,

"Actually, I have another favor to ask."

"Speak," said Zhou Yu.

"My Tiánhu Lake Business Alliance actually has a Saint Realm master."

"It’s just that he has been injured for a long time and has been in seclusion recuperating. Could I ask you, Mr. Zhou, to treat him?"

A look of surprise appeared on Zhou Yu’s face.

He had not expected the Tiánhu Lake Business Alliance to have a Saint Realm master.

Bei Yong gave a bitter smile.

"Actually, this elderly gentleman is my grandfather’s brother. The reason I have been supporting him is that I hoped he could help me break free from the control of the Zhao Family someday, but later, I realized that the Zhao Family’s power is not something that can be dealt with by a single Saint Realm master."

"Of course, now at this critical juncture, if you, Mr. Zhou, could heal the elderly gentleman, he would definitely be of some help," Bei Yong added.

Zhou Yu nodded and said,

"Okay, I will come to see him someday."

"Thank you, Mr. Zhou," Bei Yong said.

As the two of them were deep in conversation, Lin Luoluo came downstairs from her bedroom.

She was surprised to find a visitor in the house.

When Bei Yong saw Lin Luoluo had just gotten up, he immediately stood up and excused himself, showing great tact.

Zhou Yu did not hold him back.

After seeing Bei Yong out, Lin Luoluo curiously asked,

"Who was that?"

"Bei Yong from the Tiánhu Lake Business Alliance."

"What???"

Lin Luoluo looked shocked.

"Tiánhu Lake Business Alliance? That’s one of the top business alliances in the provincial city."

"How did you come to know their leader?"

During her time in the provincial city, Lin Luoluo had learned quite a bit about various forces, naturally including the strength of the Tiánhu Lake Business Alliance.

Zhou Yu smiled and said,

"I’ve had a few interactions with them by chance. One thing led to another, and we got to know each other."

"What does Alliance Leader Bei want with you?"

"Oh, he said he wants to follow me in the future."

Lin Luoluo was taken aback, then she glared at him.

"What are you babbling about?"

Zhou Yu wore an expression of speechlessness.

Telling the truth, and she wouldn’t believe it.

"Well, okay, he came to ask me to treat a friend of his grandfather’s," he corrected.

"Oh, that makes more sense," she responded.

"Then you’d better take good care of him. If we can establish a relationship with the Tiánhu Lake Business Alliance, it would make things much easier for our Lin Corporation here in the provincial city," she advised.

"Mmhmm, will do," Zhou Yu said, nodding earnestly.

Meanwhile, at Zhao Songqing’s villa, where he was recuperating, many people arrived one after another.

If Zhou Yu were there, he would recognize that all of these people were his adversaries without exception.

Liu Zongsen, Qiu Baiwan, Gao Yingxiang from the Gao Family, Lin Zhaoxuan from the Lin Family, Dong Mingcheng from the Dong Family, even Di Geng from Fukang Pharmaceuticals.

Di Geng had harbored resentment towards Zhou Yu since being let go after a beating from Tang Long.

Upon hearing that the emissary from Punishment Hall was gathering forces to deal with Zhou Yu, he immediately rushed over.

Zhao Songqing had not expected so many people to come, and his excitement grew.

If not for his grandfather’s insight, he would never have considered these insects worthy of attention.

It appeared that even insects had their uses.

However, what surprised him was that the Letian Association, which the Zhao Family had supported, had not been contacted.

Nevertheless, the people present were more than enough.

Zhao Songqing said with a smile,

"Everyone, being here today, I ask for your help with a matter for the Zhao Family."

"Of course, upon successful completion, our Zhao Family will reward heavily, and you all will be welcomed as honored guests of the Zhao Family," he continued.

Everyone quickly said,

"Young Master Zhao, you are too polite. Just tell us what you need."

Zhao Songqing smiled and said,

"Well then, let me get straight to the point. I asked you here to help suppress the Lin Corporation of Yancheng and to forbid them from entering the provincial city."

The smiles on everyone’s faces suddenly froze.

They looked at each other, very synchronously choosing to remain silent, their enthusiasm not as high as before.

Zhao Songqing chuckled,

"Of course, I know what everyone is worried about."

"I can assure you that our Zhao Family will manage other channels to restrict Qi Guochang, preventing him from easily interfering with this matter," he explained.

"As for Zhou Yu, as long as Qi Guochang is restricted, Lord Yang will personally deal with that young man."

"Now, everyone can rest assured, right?" he concluded.

Upon hearing Zhao Songqing’s words, everyone showed interest.

The main concerns had been Zhou Yu and Qi Guochang; if those two could be handled, everyone would gladly become honored guests of the Zhao Family.

Lin Zhaoxuan was the first to stand up, saying viciously,

"I think we should simply kill,"

"Kill off all the people from the Lin Family of Yancheng."
