My Ares Son-in-Law

one day!
In less than a day!
That's the Black Phoenix Organization, which has been entrenched in the ancient city for ten years and is as fierce and brutal as an underground crocodile!
It's like a malignant tumor deeply embedded in the ancient city's grounds, constantly eroding the city's peace and stability over the years.

Its master, Di Lang, was ruthless and cunning, resorting to any means to gain profit, causing countless people to lose their lives.

Yet this powerful force, so strong it inspired despair, was uprooted and completely wiped out by this seemingly harmless and gentle young man in the most primitive, violent, and chilling way!
What a bloody storm that was!

Liu Jianming could almost see Xiao Chen, like a grim reaper emerging from hell, leading a group of well-trained and murderous subordinates, charging into the Black Phoenix Organization's various strongholds like tigers descending a mountain in the darkness of the early morning.

Gunshots, screams, and the sounds of fighting mingled together, blood stained the ground, and corpses lay scattered on the ground.

Di Lang, the once arrogant underworld boss, was like an ant in front of Xiao Chen, powerless to resist, and ultimately met his end as a charred corpse.

Liu Jianming felt a chill slowly seeping from the depths of his bone marrow, traveling up his spine and instantly spreading to his limbs and bones.

His body trembled uncontrollably, his limbs stiff and cold, as if frozen by ice and snow.

He slowly raised his head, staring blankly at Xiao Chen. His eyes no longer held the calculating, weighing-the-pros and cons that a businessman would use when assessing an ally; instead, they held only the most instinctive, deep-seated awe and fear one feels when facing a prehistoric behemoth!
It was a kind of awe for the unknown power, a fear of absolute strength, as if a single glance from Xiao Chen could bring him to his doom.

At the same time, an unparalleled sense of relief washed over him like a tidal wave.

He was glad that he hadn't hesitated or wavered at the critical moment of life and death, and had placed his bet on Xiao Chen without hesitation.

It was a desperate act of courage, a gamble on fate.

And now, he's won his gamble!

He seemed to see himself standing at the pinnacle of victory, looking down on those who had once been his enemies or harbored ill intentions towards him. They were now trembling at his feet like ants.

otherwise……

Liu Jianming dared not think any further.

The mere thought of Di Lang's charred remains, and the chaotic scene of the Black Phoenix organization's stronghold, marked by signs of "verification," sent chills down his spine.

He knew perfectly well that if he hadn't chosen to stand with Xiao Chen back then, if he had hesitated even slightly, then at this moment, he, Liu Jianming, and his Jianming Group, which he had painstakingly built up over many years, would probably have already followed in the footsteps of Di Lang and the Black Phoenix Organization, turning into dust of history and disappearing into the vast sea of ​​people, forgotten by everyone.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but shudder. He secretly vowed that from now on, he would follow Xiao Chen closely and never back down, no matter what lay ahead, whether it was a mountain of knives or a bottomless abyss!
He took a deep breath, the breath carrying the tremor of someone who had just escaped death after struggling on the edge of hell.

His chest heaved violently, as if trying to calm the turbulent emotions churning within him.

He lowered his head slightly, his eyes filled with awe and fear, his posture lower than ever before, almost touching the ground.

His once straight spine was now bent like a fully drawn bow, and he spoke cautiously, almost with a hint of obsequious reverence: "Mr. Xiao! I, Liu Jianming, assure you! In three days! Just three days! Nanlai Group will complete all legal procedures and be completely renamed 'Xunjiang Group'!"

"From now on, it will be the sharpest sword in your hand. Wherever you point, it will pierce without hesitation, clearing away all obstacles for you!" "Very good." Xiao Chen sat there, seemingly unsurprised by the answer. His expression was as calm as a bottomless lake. He simply nodded slightly, his movements elegant and composed.

He picked up the exquisite teacup in front of him, gently blew on the steam, and then slowly took a sip. His demeanor remained calm and composed, as if everything Liu Jianming had just said was nothing more than a trivial matter.

But as he put down his teacup, he seemed to suddenly remember something, his gaze casually sweeping over Liu Jianming, and he asked offhand, "By the way, Mr. Shen. Are you familiar with the Longguo Xicang Group and the Zhou Consortium?"

"puff--!"

Liu Jianming had just picked up the cup of tea in front of him to calm his nerves, but before he could even bring it to his lips, he heard Xiao Chen's sudden question. His wrist jerked violently, as if he had been struck by an invisible electric current.

The scalding tea splashed out instantly, like a flood bursting its banks, landing on the back of his hand and burning it bright red. But he was completely oblivious, as if the pain didn't exist at all.

His eyes widened in horror, filled with extreme fear and disbelief, as if he had seen the most terrifying thing in the world.

My heart felt like it was being gripped tightly by an invisible hand, pounding violently as if it were about to leap out of my throat.

His breathing became rapid and heavy, his chest heaving violently, like a wild beast trapped in a cage.

Xicang Group?!
The Zhou Consortium?!
The two names struck him like thunderbolts, leaving him dizzy and disoriented.

Why is Mr. Xiao asking this?!

Could it be... could it be that after he just wiped out the Southern and Black Phoenix organizations, his appetite has swelled to the point where he wants to swallow these two towering mountains that stand at the top of the Dragon Kingdom's economic map?!
These two conglomerates are behemoths in the Chinese economy, with unimaginable strength and enormous influence both domestically and internationally.

They are like two unshakeable mountains, standing at the pinnacle of the economy, overlooking all living beings.

This...this is a completely different concept from crushing the small fish and shrimp in the ancient city!

The smaller forces in the ancient city might be no match for Xiao Chen, but the Xicang Group and the Zhou Consortium are not to be trifled with.

They are backed by a complex network of relationships, strong financial support and talent pool, and deep political connections.

Trying to move them is like throwing an egg against a rock—it's a complete overestimation of your abilities!

That's utterly delusional!

No, it's courting its own destruction!
Countless thoughts flashed through Liu Jianming's mind in an instant, each one filling him with immense fear and despair.

He didn't know what Xiao Chen was planning, nor did he know how to deal with this sudden problem.

He felt his legs go weak, almost causing him to lose his balance. His body trembled uncontrollably, as if he were caught in a terrible storm, about to be swallowed up at any moment. (End of Chapter)
