Chapter 232: Chapter 228 Desperate Counterattack

From Cao Qiu’s signal, a middle-aged man behind him, carrying a sword, walked up to Long Chen.

"Begin."

Cao Qiu indifferently ordered.

"Yes."

The middle-aged man aimed at Long Chen’s Pipa Bone and viciously stabbed it.

Long Chen could see and feel it.

But the effect of the poison was terrifying; even he couldn’t resist it at the moment and felt utterly powerless.

As the sword pierced through the Pipa Bone, Long Chen gasped in pain, and the Spiritual Power inside his body seemed to dissipate.

This feeling was especially terrifying.

If the Spiritual Power dissipated, Long Chen knew he would become utterly useless.

He didn’t want this to happen, but for the moment, he was powerless.

Just when Long Chen was near despair, he sensed an unknown power surging within his bloodline, sealing off the Spiritual Power to prevent it from leaking.

Long Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief, but the situation was still extremely dangerous.

Cao Qiu had already ordered people to detain all the unconscious ones.

Including himself, who was tied up tightly.

"Vice Alliance Hierarch Cao, even if Long Chen were the reincarnation of an Immortal, with his Pipa Bone pierced and tied up like this, he definitely couldn’t escape."

The middle-aged man laughed.

"Indeed."

Cao Qiu sat down, stared at Long Chen, and smiled lightly, "Young man, don’t look at me with those pitiful eyes. Your defeat has been sealed. Now, both your women and yourself are under my control. You might not care about your own life and death, but I don’t believe you can be indifferent to the lives of your women."

"I never expected that Cao Qiu, ranked fifth on the Martial King List, would be such a despicable vermin. Now I know."

Long Chen sneered.

"Your words have quite a childish feel to them, kid. Let grandpa teach you something. You should learn to bow your head, or else you’ll only harm yourself and others. You are still young. You can’t handle the vast empire of Dragon Doctor.

Oh, sorry, I misspoke. It should now be called the Eastern Dragon Shadow Group."

A sinister smile hung on Cao Qiu’s lips, and his narrow eyes were filled with ruthlessness.

Long Chen took a deep breath and remained silent.

Secretly, he was silently exerting his strength, trying to dissolve the medicinal effect inside.

But the pierced Pipa Bone had a significant impact on him.

Cao Qiu reached out, slapped Long Chen’s face with a substantial force, and proudly said, "You, a mere mortal, also dare to compete with the legends of Martial Arts. It’s utterly delusional.

Now, grandpa might give you a way out. I’ve prepared some contracts and documents here. If you sign them, I can not only release you but also ensure that everyone is released without harm.

But if you refuse to cooperate, I can’t guarantee what my impulsive young men might do."

As his words ended, the people behind him took the hint and brought out a stack of thick documents and contracts.

These were to make Long Chen unconditionally transfer all shares of the Eastern Dragon Shadow Group.

Long Chen stared at Cao Qiu and taunted, "You mustn’t be unaware that forcing me to sign these contracts will become null and void if I renege afterward, and legally, they won’t count."

"Don’t try to bluff me," Cao Qiu replied casually. "If you want to renege, feel free to try. I could catch you all once, I can do it again and again. You are like that Monkey King; no matter how you rebel, you can’t escape Buddha’s palm. Besides, you’re far too inferior to Wukong."

"No matter how arrogant you are, you will never take control of Dragon Shadow Group. It will all be in vain."

Long Chen sneered.

"Is that so?" Cao Qiu replied nonchalantly. "You boy, won’t heed advice. Then, I must let you taste what pain is."

After finishing his statement, Cao Qiu turned his head and said to the man behind, "Take that woman, it’s your lucky day."

He pointed to Zhao Churan.

The man glanced at Zhao Churan who was tied up on the sofa, slightly reclining, her curves alluring.

The man’s Adam’s apple moved, and he eagerly prepared to make his move.

Seeing this, Long Chen became extremely anxious.

In his heart, a hundred Dragon Shadow Groups were not worth Li Yuechan and Zhao Churan.

"Fine, I’ll sign, just don’t touch them,"

Long Chen gritted his teeth.

"Isn’t that better?" Cao Qiu said with a smiling face. "Boy, it seems you are somewhat sensible. I can also disclose to you that if you cooperate and hand over Dragon Shadow Group for the Martial Alliance to manage, we can provide you a sum of money so you can live worry-free for the rest of your life. Our Martial Alliance is humane and doesn’t resort to hooliganism."

"You’re really very ’humane.’"

Long Chen sneered.

"Save your words, I won’t waste my breath on you any further. Just sign the documents."

Cao Qiu said.

"How can I sign if you don’t untie me?"

Long Chen spoke through gritted teeth.

"Uh, you do have a point there. Release him," Cao Qiu, smiling, said.

"Vice Alliance Hierarch, I feel this is inappropriate," the middle-aged man next to Cao Qiu quickly said. "This kid, despite being poisoned and pierced in the Pipa Bone, is still clear-headed. Very strange. It’s safer to be cautious."

"No matter," Cao Qiu confidently said. "Poisoned and pierced through the Pipa Bone, no matter if he’s a Daluo Golden Immortal descended, he can’t defy fate. Boldly release him."

"Yes."

The middle-aged man hesitated no further, crouched down, and untied the ropes on Long Chen.

Once Long Chen was freed, he staggered, fell to the ground, breathing heavily, and looked in terrible condition, his face ashen.
