Chapter 1729: What is going on?! Has Leader Yang changed her taste?

Thinking of Shen Qiong, Yang Lusi recalled the way Leng Feng had attacked just now.

She kept recalling how the opponent had used that style to spar with her, and she could basically confirm that he and Shen Qiong came from the same place.

At this moment, Yang Lusi glanced at Shen Qiong and shook her head with a helpless sigh.

For some reason, Yang Lusi was able to find a corner to sit down.

In this corner, even if someone came over to talk to her, others would not be able to hear them.

Shen Qiong watched Yang Lusi's back and also sighed quietly, a touch of loneliness appearing in her eyes.

She understood that it was time for a showdown; if she didn't make things clear to Yang Lusi now, the last bit of trust Yang Lusi had in her would slowly disappear.

Nothing in this world can be overdrawn indefinitely, especially trust.

Even though Yang Lusi had already said those things to Shen Qiong before, Shen Qiong hadn't said much about her own situation, and Yang Lusi had been giving her chances all along.

Now was the time Yang Lusi was making her confess. If she continued to hide these things now, Shen Qiong understood it would be of no benefit to her; after all, she had already considered herself a member of the Second Archaeological Team, not a member of the Wang family.

The reason she made this choice so firmly, or rather, had gone through repeated struggles before resolutely choosing to stand with the Second Archaeological Team, was because Shen Qiong felt no sense of care whatsoever while at the Wang family.

The people there were all cold, and they believed that completing the mission was everything.

Having figured this out, Shen Qiong walked over slowly, having made up her mind at this moment.

Since she had already thought about how to confess this matter to Yang Lusi, hesitating now would be the greatest disrespect to Leader Yang.

Shen Qiong took deep breaths as she walked, trying to calm herself down!

It would be impossible to say she wasn't nervous at this time; after all, Shen Qiong couldn't be one hundred percent sure what Yang Lusi would do specifically after knowing the answer.

And she also knew that in this tomb, or rather in the previous tombs, everyone in the Second Archaeological Team didn't know how many lives they owed Yang Lusi.

The reason they were able to survive was partly due to Zhang Lin's command, but in extreme situations requiring quick reactions, Zhang Lin didn't have time to direct them on how to handle such situations; even if Zhang Lin did say how to respond, ultimately, one needed the skill to do so.

From the mutated sea monkey at the beginning to the spider cave later, and now to this situation, this series of events all verified Yang Lusi's ability.

And Yang Lusi had indeed saved their lives countless times. If it weren't for Yang Lusi resolutely taking action at critical moments and leading the charge in most dangerous situations, the others in the Second Archaeological Team, including Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan, would probably have already gone down to accompany Xu Lang and the others.

With this premise, Shen Qiong really did treat Yang Lusi like her own sister, but while she could think this way in her heart, Shen Qiong couldn't be sure what Yang Lusi was thinking.

Until she reached behind Yang Lusi, Shen Qiong stood at her side, and before she could speak, Yang Lusi smiled slightly and then said, "Sit."

After saying this word, Yang Lusi looked up at Shen Qiong, her gaze burning!

But what she carried was not a scrutinizing gaze, but one full of sincerity; Shen Qiong was directly moved by this look.

In her view, the emotion Yang Lusi had revealed at the first moment had already conveyed a very favorable message to her: the other party did not intend to press for the details of the situation.

Everything still depended on whether Shen Qiong would tell her or not; if Shen Qiong truly didn't intend to tell her, then the matter would end there.

Yang Lusi would not dwell on this problem again. For Yang Lusi, she had already firmed up this attitude before, which, to put it bluntly, came from Zhang Lin at the Crescent Hotel.

She was very certain of one thing: even if everyone in the Second Archaeological Team didn't know exactly where Shen Qiong came from or what identity she was hiding.

But Yang Lusi firmly believed that Zhang Lin of the Crescent Hotel definitely knew this!

Since the other party knew exactly what kind of background Shen Qiong had and yet did not speak up to warn them, under these circumstances, Yang Lu could be almost one hundred percent certain that Shen Qiong was definitely not a problem right now.

And as the series of events that followed indeed showed, Shen Qiong had also fulfilled her role; she had not done anything detrimental to the Second Archaeological Team. As long as these conditions were met, it was already enough for Yang Lu.

As for what Shen Qiong's situation would be later on, they could just slowly investigate it after they lifted the curse.

She could even ask Zhang Lin this question, provided that Zhang Lin was willing to tell her.

But since Zhang Lin was not offering any warnings now, nor telling the Second Archaeological Team to be wary of Shen Qiong, it proved that their team was still a cohesive unit and had not seen a turncoat like Sun Wu from the First Archaeological Team.

Based on this point, Yang Lu could set her mind at ease, but the reason she was sitting on the edge waiting for Shen Qiong's arrival at this moment was simply out of curiosity.

Or rather, she wanted to use this to soothe Shen Qiong's restless heart; she could tell that ever since Leng Feng appeared before them, including earlier at the location of the Huo's Immortal Insect.

Shen Qiong had begun to grow nervous, whether intentionally or not. Yang Lu naturally understood what kind of skills Leng Feng and his gang possessed, but if Shen Qiong was nervous because of their skills, that spoke volumes.

Before Yang Lu had seen Leng Feng's specific body technique and only had a brief exchange with him, she still harbored certain doubts at that time.

But now, with the situation one hundred percent confirmed, Yang Lu could naturally let the other party speak openly and honestly with her about these matters.
