Divine Doctor Dragon Master-Chapter 401 Clang into Prison!
Li Lang spoke slowly, "Last night, a batch of Gene Potion being transported from Jinling to Capital City was hijacked. Now that you've taken over as the Hall Master of the eastern branch of Dragon Hall, you're ordered to retrieve the lost Gene Potion within three days."
Upon hearing this, Qin Jiang's brows furrowed slightly. The Gene Potion being transported from Jinling to Capital City?
Moreover, the Gene Potion was now being developed by Zhao Yuefei's team. With such an important thing as the transportation of the Gene Potion, Ye Longchen would definitely be involved.
Recalling that something was off with Ye Longchen's voice last night, Qin Jiang instantly felt a sense of unease.
He quickly asked, "Lord Li Lang, do you know who was transporting the Gene Potion last night?"
Li Lang responded indifferently, "That's not within my responsibility. If you want to know, you will have to investigate on your own."
"I will stay here for the next three days until you find the missing Gene Potion."
Li Lang continued, "This is your first task since taking office. I hope you can complete it well. You wouldn't want to disappoint the higher-ups."
"Otherwise, they have the right to question your competency and also have the right to replace you with someone more capable. Do you understand?"
"I understand," Qin Jiang nodded.
"Good! Do your best," Li Lang patted Qin Jiang's shoulder. "I, Li Lang, have never let down the higher-ups, and you better not be the first case to do so. Otherwise, the consequences will be severe."
"I will do my best," Qin Jiang responded faintly.
Li Lang asserted again, "It's not about doing your best, it's about making sure to succeed!"
"Of course, I will give you full authority over this matter. Should anyone dare to obstruct your work, they can't blame me for acting by the book!"
Qin Jiang didn't speak but instructed one of the Dragon Hall members, "Arrange accommodations for Lord Li Lang."
"Understood." The Dragon Hall member immediately went to do so.
After Li Lang had left, Qin Jiang took out his phone and dialed Ye Longchen's number, but the call couldn't get through no matter how he tried.
After trying several times with no success, he called Zhao Yuefei's number, still with no one answering.
Faced with such results, Qin Jiang felt something was wrong.
They must have encountered trouble!
Qin Jiang ordered, "Blood Eagle, immediately help me check on something. Find out the current whereabouts of Ye Longchen and Zhao Yuefei. I suspect they were involved in last night's transportation. You can start your investigation from there."
"Yes!" Blood Eagle nodded and immediately went to work.
Now in charge of Dragon Hall, Qin Jiang found it relatively easy to locate Ye Longchen and Zhao Yuefei.
In less than an hour, Blood Eagle came to report to Qin Jiang, "Hall Master, I've located both of them."
Qin Jiang asked, "Where are they?"
Blood Eagle answered, "Ye Longchen was arrested this morning and taken to Zhonghai Martial Arts Department for failing to protect the Gene Potion during transportation."
"As for Zhao Yuefei, she is under suspicion of leaking secrets and is currently under investigation."
After learning about their situations, Qin Jiang's brows slightly furrowed. Indeed, something had happened to both of them.
He was still in the dark regarding the incident concerning last night's Gene Potion transportation.
Given the current situation, to clearly understand the ins and outs of the whole affair, he had to make a trip to the Zhonghai Martial Arts Department.
Only by meeting Zhao Yuefei and Ye Longchen could he clarify what exactly had happened.
Zhonghai Martial Arts Department.
As soon as Qin Jiang arrived at the gate, he was stopped by the guards, "This is the Zhonghai Martial Arts Department. No unauthorized persons are allowed to enter!"
Before Qin Jiang could speak, Blood Eagle immediately presented a token.
The Hall Master of the eastern branch of Dragon Hall?
The guard was startled when he saw the token and his stern expression quickly turned obsequious.
Being just a low-level guard, he dared not offend someone like Qin Jiang, so he immediately allowed passage and promptly notified his superiors.
Once inside the Zhonghai Martial Arts Department, Qin Jiang and Blood Eagle inquired about the whereabouts of those captured last night.
After getting the information, Qin Jiang went straight to the prison where the criminals were held. Ignoring the guards who tried to stop him, he forcefully entered to search for Ye Longchen.
After a thorough search, he found Ye Longchen confined in the darkest cell.
Upon seeing Ye Longchen, Qin Jiang called out urgently, "Ye."
At the sound of his voice, Ye Longchen looked up, and his face showed surprise upon seeing Qin Jiang.

He stood up and approached Qin Jiang, asking, "Qin Jiang, what brings you here?"
"How could I not come when you're locked up here?" Qin Jiang shook his head and then said, "Such a serious incident occurred, and you even kept it from me."
"It would have been useless to tell you, and it might have affected your performance."
Ye Longchen smiled, "If it hindered your big plans, I couldn't bear the responsibility."
"By the way, how's everything on your side?"
"Don't worry, all is in order."
Qin Jiang continued, "Ye, we've been through life and death together. Isn't it a bit too distant for you to talk like this now?"
Over time, the experiences they had shared had created a brotherly bond between them, unbeknownst to both.
And the feeling was mutual for Ye Longchen.
"Qin Jiang, congratulations!" Ye Longchen smiled and then shook his head, "Qin Jiang, this matter isn't as simple as you think. You shouldn't get involved."

"It's already too late to say that now."
"What do you mean?" Ye Longchen was puzzled.
Qin Jiang briefly told Ye Longchen about the task given to him by the higher-ups.
After hearing the news, Ye Longchen's frown deepened, "It seems you really can't avoid getting involved in this matter."
Qin Jiang asked, "Ye, time is pressing. Tell me, what exactly happened last night?"
