Chapter 2129: An excited Chu Yi! Is this the plan to completely resolve the wolf pack?

~7 min read 1,235 words

As long as he could make contact with Wang Cen, all subsequent matters could be resolved. Wang Canghai was currently worried that if Mr. Wang had not contacted the group that went to the Second Archaeological Team, they would not have received any orders and would likely continue to make choices based on their previous methods.

Wang Canghai was even afraid that once these people saw the live broadcast and realized they had lost contact with their base, they might make unpredictable choices without receiving subsequent instructions.

Once morale collapsed, they would likely have to pay a painful price; Wang Canghai had already experienced such things hundreds of years ago.

Since he did not want similar situations to continue happening, he needed to contact Wang Cen urgently while in this awkward position within the current environment.

But thinking was one thing; Wang Canghai was not yet certain to what extent the actual situation could be pushed. At the very least, in his view, if some things truly could not be done, they could not be forced.

If he saw that the situation had truly been pushed to such an extreme, Wang Canghai might only be able to find a way to retreat for himself.

Even if he understood that the subsequent time could only be spent cowering in some corner, lingering on until the eye-coal essence was completely exhausted, Wang Canghai would eventually leave this world entirely!

That would still be better than leaving right now. Moreover, once Zhang Lin revealed those secrets, the consequences Wang Canghai would face would be even more terrifying than death.

Clearly, Wang Canghai did not wish for such things to happen, so now that all subjective choices had been pushed to that point, Wang Canghai had to move forward without looking back.

Looking at the Second Archaeological Team, Yang Lu did not let everyone rest; instead, she called everyone from the team for a small meeting.

This was a rare sight in the Second Archaeological Team. Yang Lu's expression held no hint of joking. When she first summoned everyone for this meeting, they all assumed Yang Lu wanted to summarize the events that had just occurred.

Furthermore, Yang Lu had previously seen that the members of the Second Archaeological Team were in a state of joy, believing they would soon be able to break the curse on themselves, which would lead to an imbalance in their mindset.

It was clear that Yang Lu did not want to see such things happen, which was why she was now speaking up to remind everyone.

However, Yang Lu did not mention this matter, which surprised everyone; her gaze was instead locked onto Chu Yi.

Immediately after, Chu Yi said, "Team Leader Yang, actually, I know what you want to ask. Regarding the road ahead, perhaps that Mr. Zhang from the Crescent Hotel can speak more specifically."

"Also, that kind of Karmic Fire that appeared—it is not common in the Sichuan-Tibet region, but it definitely does not mean it doesn't exist. Not everything is just a legend!"

Once these words were spoken, Yang Lu said nothing, but Ake pressed his palms together, recited a Buddhist chant, and added, "Team Leader Yang, regarding the Karmic Fire, I don't think you need to think too much about it. Its appearance was purely a coincidence!"

"And as long as we don't touch those corpses, this kind of thing won't appear."

Wang Kaixuan shook his head upon hearing this and said, "Ake, what you said is too one-sided. If the Karmic Fire were truly not common, it wouldn't have appeared."

Hu Bayi couldn't help but be stunned, but he understood Wang Kaixuan's words in an instant and couldn't help but sigh that Wang Kaixuan's reaction was faster than his own this time.

In fact, Wang Kaixuan's words clearly had a deeper meaning; his intent was very clear: the Karmic Fire had appeared in the tomb just now.

Then, whether they found the Nine-Story Demon Tower later or reached the E Luo Hai City, as long as it was related to the tomb, this kind of fierce fire could become an obstacle.

This was what they needed to consider.

But at the moment, everyone had misinterpreted Yang Lu's thoughts. Yang Lu had called them over to solve the current problem; it wasn't that Yang Lu hadn't paid attention to the appearance of the Karmic Fire.

However, she firmly believed that it was not the main point they needed to focus on next.

As the saying goes, "soldiers come to block, water comes to cover." Rather than considering the crisis that the potential Karmic Fire might bring them later, it was better to consider how to deal with the current situation.

Yang Lu then waved her hand and smiled, "What you all said makes sense, but the reason I called everyone over to hold this meeting at this point in time is very simple: it's because of the wolf pack!"

Everyone was stunned upon hearing this. Wang Kaixuan also slapped his forehead; the previous events had been so chaotic that he had subconsciously forgotten about the wolf pack.

Only then did he realize what the focus of their attention should be next.

It was indeed true; if they insisted on considering things that hadn't happened yet, it would be putting the cart before the horse.

Now they had found a direction, and they could set off following this direction early tomorrow morning. Even if Zhang Lin hadn't boarded the Crescent Hotel, they could still continue forward without hesitation. This was all the intelligence Yang Lu had obtained.

Based on this intelligence, Yang Lu could make the corresponding choices without hesitation. However, while these choices had been made, another factor could not be ignored.

At first, no one took the wolf pack seriously, but the journey had been far too quiet. The fact that they had walked out of the mountain stream proved that something was bound to happen.

Zhang Lin had already given a corresponding warning: the wolf pack had reservations about that mountain boundary. The further they went, the greater the wolves' reservations became, so they had to find the most suitable node to launch an attack on the Second Archaeological Team. That was what the wolf pack intended to do.

Throughout the journey, Yang Lu had been vigilant not only for the possible appearance of the Wang family but also for these wolves. But after such a long time, until they walked out of the mountain stream, the wolves had shown no movement at all. Yang Lu had long felt quite surprised by this.

She hadn't said anything, but now she had to take this into account. For Yang Lu, if she were to cast this matter entirely to the back of her mind, it would be playing right into their hands.

Perhaps the wolf pack hoped that the Second Archaeological Team would completely downplay the crisis they brought. If that were the case, all the initiative would be in the hands of the wolf pack.

Yang Lu did not want to see such a thing happen, which was why she spoke to everyone about this.

Hearing Yang Lu say this, a flash of excitement appeared in Chu Yi's eyes, and he immediately said, "Team Leader Yang, by your meaning, you don't intend to resolve the wolf pack in advance, do you?"
