Chapter 2330: Mr. Zhang? Zhang Lin is worth a fart!

~7 min read 1,215 words

Even before this matter happened, Wu Tianzhen had already determined such a mindset, just like when Su Nan left.

If the positions of the two were swapped at that time, and it was Su Nan holding incense against Wang Cang's back, even if Su Nan didn't deliberately act to make Wang Cang stay, the First Archaeological Team wouldn't be a pure bystander.

Instead, they would try their best to stop the other party from escaping. But Su Nan didn't have a blood feud with the Second Archaeological Team; Yang Lu's side would more or less give the other party a chance.

This was just like Shen Qiong. If one were to stifle all the other party's chances in the cradle, then Shen Qiong might also find it hard to be a person. This was the key to the problem.

Although Wu Tianzhen still couldn't figure out the details here, the choices Yang Lu made were all inclined toward this point. Just seeing this clearly was enough. Everything Wu Tianzhen did now was inclined toward the Second Archaeological Team's side.

Even now, he had started to look forward to a cooperation with the Second Archaeological Team. Regardless of whether this cooperation was direct or indirect, at the very least, this linkage would bring greater certainty to both sides.

Wang Cang, hearing Wu Tianzhen's answer, said happily: "Team Leader Wu, actually, you and I know it without saying. I suppose you should know what Su Nan said on the Second Archaeological Team's side, right!"

Wu Tianzhen still didn't deny the other party, but didn't actively express anything either, which could be considered as tacitly agreeing.

Wang Cang continued: "Now you have two choices: either directly finish us off, if you have such confidence."

This sentence was full of provocation, as if Wang Cang himself wanted to find death. How could Fatty endure such a provocation? He took a step forward without hesitation.

Although he knew the other party was just provoking them, and who knows if it was using this method of doing the opposite to make subsequent matters increasingly complex.

Perhaps Wang Cang also had that kind of confidence!

With Celestial Master Zhang not here, if they took action directly, the First Archaeological Team had no confidence.

But what kind of person was Fatty? Just now, if it weren't for Wu Tianzhen patiently explaining to him, Fatty might have long since grabbed his gear and rushed out to fight these people to the death.

Only those who are alive have the qualification to speak. Whether it was the Wang family or the archaeological team, the principle was the same.

But even so, there was still Wu Tianzhen. He couldn't let Fatty make this brain-dead decision.

The next moment, Wu Tianzhen smiled indifferently, while stopping Fatty, who was about to go up and take action.

"Wang Cang, actually, you could stay calm or come and explain to me. By doing this now, aren't you just tacitly agreeing that what Su Nan said is correct? You indeed want to find an opportunity inside the Cloud-Top Palace and then perish together with us. In this way, it can be considered a kind of revenge against Mr. Zhang, right?"

Wang Cang laughed loudly, his laughter full of contempt.

"Mr. Zhang! Zhang Lin, right! You think he is a character, but in front of me, he has no qualification. He is worth three farts!"

Fatty couldn't hold back this time and kicked out directly.

Even though there was still a distance, he didn't even care what he should do after this kick landed.

But Wang Cang's skills weren't just for show either. After all, he had been trained professionally by the Wang family since he was a child. So, the moment this kick came, Wang Cang hurriedly dodged!

And because Fatty was too impulsive, his body had already lost its balance. Fortunately, Wu Tianzhen dragged him from the side, letting him regain his balance.

Immediately after, Fatty snorted coldly and was about to take action again, but was glared back by Wu Tianzhen.

Impulsiveness couldn't solve any problems now. And even without considering this situation, in most cases, archaeological teams like theirs, with enemies right under their noses,

and also in a state of short-term cooperation, could not take action directly.

If something unexpected really happened at this time, or if they had to make a choice, Wu Tianzhen believed Zhang Lin would definitely tell Wu Ya, and then let the other party pass it on to them.

Since there was no movement from Mr. Zhang's side, Wu Tianzhen told himself in his heart now: all he could do was to meet ten thousand changes with one constant. As long as he didn't let Wang Cang run away, then everything would be fine.

The appearance Wang Cang showed now had even lost his original calmness. Looking at the surface, he was a bit manic, but Wu Tianzhen knew very well.

The psychological stress-bearing capacity of the Wang family members absolutely wasn't this poor. At the beginning, when he knew the Wang family might no longer exist, or that the leader of the Wang family had taken everyone and left the Wang family headquarters, Wang Cang had indeed been hit.

But relatively speaking, precisely because such a blow didn't truly make Wang Cang feel desperate, he still remained calm. So, this change now must be deliberately disguised by the other party, just wanting to make the First Archaeological Team take action against them.

It was possible that Wang Cang had a backup plan. Since his purpose had been exposed, he simply let go of all scruples and then used some method here to perish together with the First Archaeological Team.

The only thing Wu Tianzhen could think of was that the commander behind him right now might really know what was under this four-legged dragon!

And then Wang Cang could also trigger some kind of crisis to bring a devastating blow to the First Archaeological Team. By that time, it would be too late for them to restrain the impulsiveness in their bones.

Fortunately, Fatty listened to Wu Tianzhen this time and didn't continue to take action. Visible to the naked eye, a look of disappointment appeared in Wang Cang's eyes.

However, very quickly, he became composed again. A person's attitude being able to switch so quickly also confirmed Wu Tianzhen's previous guess: everything they saw was a false appearance.

If a person like Wang Cang chose to fight with wits and courage, and if the target was Zhang Lin, then naturally he would return in defeat, and there would be no opportunity at all.

But Wu Tianzhen didn't think he could reach Zhang Lin's category. Wang Cang's use of provocation really grasped the key point. He knew that ridiculing someone in the First Archaeological Team might not have much effect.

But if he talked about Zhang Lin at the Crescent Hotel, it would be different.

At this time, Wu Ya walked over slowly from the distance. If one were to talk about criticizing Zhang Lin, she was definitely the one who couldn't suppress her anger the most. However, with Wu Ya's cleverness, she also saw some clues and naturally wouldn't be led by the other party's rhythm. ===== CHAPTER 2331 =====
