"Young Miss, Ye Tian has gone into the mountains!"

"Alright, it's time for us to get moving."

A stunningly beautiful woman, dressed in local folk costume, with a wasp waist and shapely hips, whose beauty was breathtaking even with her face veiled.

He issued commands in a voice as clear and melodious as a lark.

She knew that the undercurrents were already surging beneath the unseen ice.

The real mastermind is lurking in the most inconspicuous shadows, waiting for the right opportunity.

Ye Tian was leaning back in the car, resting with his eyes closed.

They have been in the mountains for a day and a night, and have not yet reached their destination.

He knew that someone was lurking in the shadows, watching him and waiting for an opportunity to strike.

But he didn't move. Rather than going to great lengths to find the enemy, he decided to wait for the enemy to come to him.

In Jiangcheng, when the Zhou family's mysterious antique appeared, the rumors and clues about the priceless ancient treasure from a hundred years ago spread far and wide after these past few days.

They had already encountered several groups of treasure hunters in the mountains that day.

Perhaps in a few more days, the number of people going into the mountains to search for treasure will only increase.

Although they may not be able to find it, there are too many people, which will definitely distract them.

Ye Tian and Sun Yongqiang must find that place as soon as possible, lest things get complicated!

"Brother Ye, if we go any further, we'll enter the Viper's territory."

This is the only way to our destination, so we must be extra careful!

Sun Yongqiang said earnestly.

"Viper? What kind of technique is that?" Ye Tian slowly opened his eyes, his tone filled with curiosity.

"I'm not entirely sure what the specific approach will be."

All I know is that in these mountains beyond, vipers are the absolute overlords.

It is said that the leader of the Viper organization has a mysterious background, ruthless methods, and a tough style.

No matter how venomous the snake, it will obey her commands.

The mountains in this area are inhabited by ethnic minorities, whose people are known for their fierce and unruly nature, but they are powerless against the Viper organization that rules the mountains.

"It's clear that this organization is not so easy to deal with!" A hint of worry appeared in Sun Yongqiang's eyes.

"King of the mountain? And he can control snakes?"

But this is the only road into the mountains. No matter how evil she is, we have to try!

Just as Ye Tian finished speaking, his phone suddenly rang.

It was a message from Meng Yao.

"Brother Ye, I found out that the son of the Viper organization's leader is studying at an expensive private art college on the West Coast."

The head of the Viper organization visits the region twice a year under the guise of business trips, with his stays coinciding with the academy's important activity cycles.

Another point is that the Viper organization has an unusual relationship with the Zhao family group in Diancheng.

Their Viper organization sent a mediocre trusted confidant to serve as the vice president of a second-rate real estate company controlled by the Zhao Group.

They were in charge of some infrastructure projects that didn't require much technical skill but were very lucrative.

There was a clear chain of vested interests between them, but it had been well hidden.

Ye Tian was slightly taken aback when he saw the message. Although he had always known that Meng Yao was very well-informed.

But I never expected that she could even find news from abroad.

Ye Tian rapidly processed this information in his mind:

The connection between the Viper organization and the Zhao Group is covert, a tacit understanding based on the exchange of interests.

But what if this tacit understanding is broken?

What if one side demonstrates the ability and intention to threaten the other side's most vulnerable point?

The seeds of suspicion are often more destructive to fragile trust than any direct attack from an enemy.

"Old Sun, I've thought of a brilliant way to kill two birds with one stone."

"Let's go, let's go and meet that Viper organization you've been talking about, the one that's not so simple."

Upon hearing this, a hint of surprise flashed in Sun Yongqiang's eyes.

He didn't ask anything because he had unconditional faith in Ye Tian's current abilities.

Since Ye Tian said he had a solution, it must be true.

Sun Yongqiang stepped on the gas, and the vehicle started moving forward again.

Not far ahead.

"We've had the roadblocks set up for so long, why haven't the people arrived yet? I'm getting impatient."

A black van was parked at the entrance to the mountain road, completely blocking the way.

Two drivers wearing reflective vests stood nearby, looking anxious.

"The people waiting for us seem to have arrived quite some time ago."

Ye Tian sensed the two people several kilometers ahead and smiled faintly.

He can now perceive things within a range of two kilometers.

The Viper organization had already sent people to block the way ahead, which was to be expected.

"Let's stop here and wait for the Zhao family to arrive before we go over."

Since it's a two-birds-with-one-stone strategy, how can we leave out a main character?

Panic often stems from uncertainty.

Ye Tian wanted to make the Viper organization leaders realize that even under their noses, they were not omniscient or omnipotent.

Ye Tian took out a brand-new, inexpensive mobile phone for the elderly that Meng Yao had prepared for him, along with several prepaid SIM cards that did not require real-name registration.

Ye Fan replaced the SIM card in his new phone, connected to an anonymous network interface that had undergone multiple redirects, and brought up a special encrypted communication software.

He began editing the message.

There was no title or signature.

It uses a complex format that combines code words and specific character substitutions, which is only used internally by the Viper organization for communication of highly sensitive matters.

This format was a sample that Meng Yao obtained through special channels and was deciphered and simulated by technical experts.

"It has been revealed that your son is studying at the West Coast College of Art."

The Zhao Group intends to eliminate your informant within the real estate company. Be prepared!

At the end, Ye Tian attached a stream of financial data, which was a section of information provided by Meng Yao detailing the destination of a certain offshore fund flow within the Viper organization.

This is top-secret information that is almost impossible for outsiders to know except for key figures within the Zhao Group.

Ye Tian was telling the other party: I not only know your weaknesses, but I also know how many loopholes there are in your wallet.

The only people who could know such top-secret information so clearly are almost certainly core figures within the Zhao Group.

Ye Tian clicked send.

After the data was successfully sent, Ye Tian pressed and held the power button and selected to completely erase all data and restore factory settings.

He removed the battery and SIM card, then threw them, along with the phone itself, into a small metal box containing a special liquid that had been prepared beforehand.

A slight hissing sound rang out as the plastic casing and chip began to corrode.

Destroy all traces, making this poisonous letter a true weapon from hell, hanging over the Viper organization, ready to fall at any moment!

After doing all this, Ye Tian got out of the car.

It was nearly dusk outside, and the afterglow of the setting sun cast a warm golden glow on the distant mountains.

Sun Yongqiang had somehow gotten to the other side of the car door and was now leaning against it.

He knew what Ye Tian was doing and remained quiet without disturbing him.

"Has it been sent?" he asked calmly.

"It's out." Ye Tian nodded, leaning against the hard trunk, stretching and yawning.

"I believe the Viper leader will like what I post."

This information alone was enough for him to suspect that someone within the Zhao Group was plotting against the Viper organization.

At least in the short term, it won't be so easy for the Viper organization and the Zhao Group to unite against us again.

But this is only the first step!
