Chapter 1554: Playing an undercover game? This idea is not bad!

Wang Canghai acted as if nothing had happened before, and upon hearing Xue Long's question, he remained as usual.

He nodded slowly and said: "Your method is correct, but now I have to admit that I am truly not as good as Zhang Lin. Having considered this, I will naturally let our people go out only when I have a hundred percent certainty or when I see the Dust-Dispelling Bead."

Xue Long nodded subconsciously, but his heart was already churning with stormy waves, while his face still feigned composure. He thought to himself, did I hear that correctly?

Wang Canghai actually admitted in person that he was not as good as Zhang Lin?

To him, this was absolutely an Arabian Nights tale!

Because he had previously seen Wang Canghai vomit blood from anger several times; upon seeing someone stronger than himself, Wang Canghai's first reaction was to be unable to accept it, and the second time was the same.

Failure after failure had even caused Wang Canghai's mind to become somewhat disordered. If he hadn't seen these things and faintly sensed that Wang Canghai wanted to purge the people around him to find a new batch of people to do things for him,

Xue Long would not have chosen to flee this place. And now, it seemed the direction of everything had changed, but amidst the shock, Xue Long remained clear-headed.

He understood that it seemed Wang Canghai saying this was just to make him calm down and was deliberately pacifying him. However, Xue Long felt even more relieved instead.

Because if Wang Canghai truly wanted to kill him right now, there would be no need to use such a pacifying method. This could only mean two things: one, Wang Canghai had indeed accepted this point.

Second, the reason Wang Canghai deliberately wanted him to calm down was that there might be tasks to hand over to him later.

And the next moment, Wang Canghai asked directly: "Since you went to Zhang Lin's place, and he even asked you to submit a letter of allegiance, I want to hear what you think?"

Xue Long took a deep breath, thinking to himself that they had finally reached the main topic. If Wang Canghai had remained silent, then for Xue Long, the subsequent matters would have been very difficult to handle.

He had the intention to express his loyalty to Wang Canghai, or rather, to emphasize once again that he would never betray this master, but he had no pretext to do so.

But now that the other party had taken the initiative to ask, for Xue Long, this was a huge opportunity.

Under these circumstances, Xue Long naturally would not be stingy with his words and said hurriedly: "Master, I have an idea. If you trust me, you can let me return to Zhang Lin's place again and submit the so-called letter of allegiance. I believe you should have something here that he is interested in. With this thing, after I find Zhang Lin, even if he doesn't trust me completely, he will be able to let me lurk there."

Wang Canghai smiled and said: "Playing an undercover game? This idea is not bad, but why should I trust someone who once betrayed me? Do you know what he said about you when I called Zhang Lin just now?"

Xue Long's eyes widened. This was something he had not expected at all. That Wang Canghai would call and contact Zhang Lin was not strange at all; the key was that Zhang Lin actually mentioned him?

Intentionally or unintentionally, Xue Long also had a faint guess. This proved that Zhang Lin's planning for what followed was already a sure thing.

And the moment he was asked to submit a letter of allegiance, he should have understood that once Xue Long reacted, he would immediately return to Wang Canghai's side. Now, Xue Long not only did not hate Zhang Lin...
