Chapter 2726: Stopping the Fight Is Easy! But How to Resolve the Inner Barrier?

So this matter can only continue like this—at least no one else can persuade Wu Tianzhen to change his mind, unless Zhang Lin steps in to intervene at this point. That is indisputable, and only Zhang Lin's words can dispel any other thoughts Wu Tianzhen might have.

And Wang Cen truly believes that if Zhang Lin were watching the livestream at this moment, he would share the same thought—after all, killing someone is nothing more than a nod of the head, and he has already thought everything through.

He has even planned his escape route perfectly. Since that's the case, Zhang Lin should let him go to his death in peace, rather than getting tangled up in other matters.

But Wang Cen holding such thoughts truly underestimates Zhang Lin.

Zhang Lin does indeed want to help the Yanglusi Society solve certain problems, and at the same time wants to use this approach to tell Yang Lu that he can properly arrange anything for her—including finding her enemies.

No second person would receive such treatment; only Yang Lu can obtain such favorable treatment from Zhang Lin. But Zhang Lin will not let her continue like this unconditionally. Another point is that if Wang Cen still has value afterward, or if this truly can genuinely help Archaeology Team One—

—and play a key role—then Zhang Lin might really change his original thinking. He also believes that as long as he gives the word, Yang Lu, no matter how unwilling, will absolutely obey his command at the first moment and stop causing all sorts of trouble.

Actually, Yang Lu had already thought about this matter in her heart before. She didn't make a fuss about it, but was quite certain of this point—believing that although avenging her other self is a matter of great importance, if Zhang Lin puts forward a corresponding request, she definitely wouldn't refuse.

After all, that's merely another version of herself; some promises naturally cannot be broken. If that promise involves her senior brother, then Yang Lu wouldn't mind losing face for once.

But the current situation is not something Yang Lu can intervene in—not because Yang Lu is still inside the Kunlun Divine Palace and they aren't on the same archaeology team.

The fundamental reason is that even if Yang Lu were present, she couldn't say much. Although they're colleagues, belonging to different teams always brings different feelings—perhaps this is exactly what they mean by every family has its own difficult scripture to recite.

If Yang Lu forcibly intervened, it would only make herself more awkward. Clearly her emotional intelligence isn't that low. This can only be resolved internally by Archaeology Team One's own members. And Wu Ya also thought of this point—she suddenly fell silent, wondering if one day a similar situation arose within Archaeology Team Two, how would Yang Lu ultimately choose?

But this question only formed in her mind for a few seconds before Wu Ya hurriedly shook her head, then showed a helpless smile, thinking to herself that she was overthinking things. How Archaeology Team One's situation is connected doesn't matter—the key is that what's involved now is Archaeology Team Two.

Under this premise, one can determine in advance that a similar situation absolutely cannot occur within Archaeology Team Two. If anything like that happens, it would only be Yang Lu deliberately putting on an act with others, in order to guard against certain things that might happen later.

This is certain. The reason for such confidence is that Yang Lu is an extremely special existence, including her status within Archaeology Team Two. As the Mountain-Moving Chief, her word is absolutely final within Archaeology Team Two, and no one can refute it.

If Yang Lu wanted to arbitrarily resolve some matters, the moment she put forward such an idea, there wouldn't be a single dissenting voice. This is precisely where Yang Lu's advantage lies.

Of course, such an advantage does come with a certain drawback—Yang Lu cannot truly obtain help from others, because their abilities are far too inferior compared to hers. This is also what Zhang Lin has been most worried about all along.

But over such a long time, Zhang Lin has long grown accustomed to it. He didn't continue to dwell on this point, and currently the internal situation of Archaeology Team Two is at least very stable.

Unlike Archaeology Team One now, which keeps causing trouble. The further Zhang Lin watches, the more he frowns, then it turns into helpless head-shaking, and he even saves his sighs.

Perhaps at first Zhang Lin didn't think in his own judgment that Archaeology Team One would make such a foolish choice now, because it doesn't help subsequent matters in the slightest and can only push them into an irreversible position. Zhang Lin is quite disappointed now.

But the essence revealed in this is still that their earlier choices deviated—this is also a result Zhang Lin didn't want to see. Glancing at his satellite communication now, he ultimately held back. Including Wu Ya, who is currently with Archaeology Team One, she keeps glancing at the satellite communication display screen from time to time.

Although once a message comes or Zhang Lin calls, there will be an alert—even if the sound can't be turned on now, at least there's vibration, so Wu Ya can sense it at the first moment.

But at this moment she still couldn't suppress her thoughts, hoping Zhang Lin would quickly step forward and turn hostility into friendship to resolve all problems.

But this time Wu Ya is destined to be disappointed. Zhang Lin doesn't plan to intervene, and he calculated the time, feeling that someone would soon arrive at Archaeology Team One, and then there would be even less need for him to intervene. The details would always have someone to help them resolve the follow-up matters—Zhang Lin is more certain of this than anyone.

And just at this moment, Fatty was about to make a move, and so was Wu Tianzhen. In fact, neither side had any confidence, including Zhang Tianshi, who was also preparing to step in and stop them.

Zhang Tianshi understood that if the two were to really fight, his first priority to stop them would be commonplace. The surface-level conflict isn't the key—the key is whether the psychological barrier between them can actually be removed.

If this barrier continues to exist, even if both sides don't fight to the point of no return, the ultimate contradiction will ultimately be irreconcilable. Even if their relationship was once so good, subsequent matters will be affected—Zhang Tianshi is quite certain of this.

Precisely because he didn't want to see something like this happen, even Zhang Tianshi is quite nervous at this moment. He hadn't expected at the beginning that things would escalate to this point. He kept telling himself in his heart that if he had foreseen it in advance, he wouldn't have let things turn out like this.

Or rather, at the very beginning he could have stepped in to intervene, rather than just watching both sides argue like this. First of all, both of them have their own positions.
