Medic Martial Dragon King

Chapter 1035: Chapter 1038: Jiang Chen Must Win

”Our family has inherited this legacy for thousands of years, always relying on the Holy Court. However, decades ago, my father couldn’t resist the temptation of the Dark Church and switched his allegiance to provide them with funding.”

Si Bake continued to describe their family’s situation:

”As a result, after the outbreak between the forces of light and dark, the Dark Church was defeated. Our family was punished by the Holy Court, which executed all of our martial forces and forbade us from training any further troops. They only ensured our family’s survival but withdrew protection for our business affairs.”

”Because of this, our family had to seek other powers for protection. These years, we have lived in constant trepidation! Fortunately, the influence of the Holy Court still exists, and we have always sought strong support to help us, so no major incidents have occurred over the years.”

”And offending you this time was something we truly didn’t anticipate. We genuinely wanted to cooperate with Dragon Soul long-term. Moreover, just now, Chief Judge Xi’er from the Holy Court called me. If we cannot satisfy you, we will be placed on the Holy Court’s blacklist! We really have no other options!”

Jiang Chen realized why the Pamir Family had been so low-profile. Logically speaking, as the ’First Oil Family of Liga Continent,’ they should be well-known, and as the head of such a family, he should speak more assertively.

With this, Jiang Chen finally understood.

”Mr. Jiang, I’ve laid everything out for you. I know that even if I hadn’t told you, you would have learned these details from Chief Judge Xi’er anyway. I... I genuinely wish to cooperate with you. Please, agree to this!” the voice on the phone sounded almost tearful!

Si Bake was indeed close to tears; he feared most that the Holy Court would bring up past issues.

Dealing with the Holy Court had always been like walking on thin ice, but this time it surprised him when Chief Judge Xi’er personally called him, nearly scaring him to the point of wetting his pants with that call!

A gleam flashed in Jiang Chen’s eyes as he suddenly realized something and spoke in a deep voice, ”You mentioned that all your family’s martial forces were exterminated by the Holy Court?”

”Yes!”

”Then what’s the deal with Bo Keli? How did he become a strong man?” Jiang Chen frowned slightly.

Si Bake was stunned for a moment and said in surprise, ”A strong man? Mr. Jiang, you’re the owner of Dragon Soul; the peak of a Three-Star Knight should not be considered strong, right? Oh, I understand, you must have heard the rumors that he’s a Paladin Knight? No, he is not a Paladin Knight!”

”He is!” Jiang Chen’s voice grew colder, ”He is indeed a Paladin Knight, there’s no doubt about that. Today, my men fought with him, and our strengths were that of Paladin Knights!”

”What!? He... how is that possible?” came Si Bake’s shocked voice over the phone.

Squeak!

The car suddenly stopped. Jiang Chen looked up and saw that a large trailer had blocked his path, his car being in a narrow alley. With the trailer blocking, it was difficult for anyone to pass by, let alone a car.

Click!

The door of the trailer opened a crack, and two elderly men stepped down.

Jiang Chen’s eyes narrowed slightly as he determined through their bloodline aura that these two were from the Fulang Family!

”It seems your son still has connections with the Dark Church, even managing to bring a Semi Venerable from the Dark Church!”

Jiang Chen spoke coldly, already noticing through the rearview mirror that a Mercedes had pulled up behind them, from which Bo Keli and two others alighted.

”What? Impossible! That can’t be!” came Si Bake’s frantic voice from the phone.

Jiang Chen was a friend of Chief Judge Xi’er. If this were true, the Holy Court would know immediately, and their family would be doomed!

”Haha! Jiang Chen, aren’t you very capable? These two are Semi Venerable Venerable Realm powerhouses from the Dark Church. How capable are you now! Today, I will do your fiancée right in front of your eyes to satisfy my grudge!”

Bo Keli’s arrogant voice came through and reached Si Bake on the other end of the phone as well.

”Bastard! Bastard! Bo Keli, you bastard!” Si Bake cursed furiously.

”Mr. Si Bake, you now have two choices. One is to hope they can kill me and my people, so I cannot send out any message. The other is to hope that I can believe that your Pamir Family truly has no connections with the Dark Church, that it is just Bo Keli personally collaborating with them, and to ask me to clean house for your Pamir Family. Which one do you choose?”

Jiang Chen spoke calmly, showing no sign of panic despite being cornered.

Hearing Jiang Chen’s words, Si Bake’s heart shook violently, and he replied without hesitation, ”Mr. Jiang, please help us clean house. Our Pamir Family absolutely has no dealings with the Dark Church. Please believe me!”

The Pamir Family truly had no connections with the Dark Church; otherwise, he wouldn’t need to speak so humbly to Jiang Chen.

Bo Keli’s actions made Si Bake realize that their Pamir Family would be completely under Jiang Chen’s control from now on. Just today’s incident would be enough for Jiang Chen to inform the Holy Court and, with a precedent set, the Pamir Family would be uprooted by the Holy Court!

”Mr. Jiang, all oil sales on Yasna Continent will be entirely at your discretion. We just need to collect a bit above cost. Moreover, if you have friends who wish to act as agents in other places, they can be given priority!”

Si Bake thought quickly and urgently stated his conditions.

”Thank you then, Family Head Si Bake. I believe today’s incident is just Bo Keli’s personal action and has nothing to do with your family. I also will not tell the Holy Court about today’s events,”

Jiang Chen said, his lips curving into a faint smile.

He was very clear that now the Pamir Family was completely within his control. Bo Keli’s actions had handed the most lethal leverage directly into his hands!

”Thank you! Thank you, Mr. Jiang!”

Grateful thanks came from the receiver. This feeling of having to thank someone after offering them a huge benefit was quite unpleasant for Si Bake.

However, Si Bake had no choice but to feel grateful to Jiang Chen!

”For the cooperation, contact Jiuzhou Group and Yi Chen Group. Both groups have energy industries. I will handle things here first,” Jiang Chen said calmly.

”Yes! I’ll contact them right away!” Si Bake responded, understanding that since Jiang Chen said this, he must be confident about counterattacking those who were attacking him.

Although Bo Keli had said he hired two Semi Venerable Venerable Realm powerhouses, Si Bake still believed that Jiang Chen could manage because when Chief Judge Xi’er had called him, he referred to Jiang Chen as ’Mr. Jiang.’

This title had scared Si Bake.

Because to receive such treatment from Chief Judge Xi’er, it couldn’t be because of Jiang Chen’s wealth or the Dragon Soul.

There was only one possibility; it was because of Jiang Chen’s strength or the strength of the forces he commanded!

Therefore, Jiang Chen would surely be victorious.
