Chapter 2754: Overturn the Cooperation! Make the Entire Wang Family End Up with Nothing!?

But to be blunt, even if those goals couldn't be achieved, Wang Wang Canghai wouldn't think he'd done anything wrong; he'd only decide that some things were inevitable.

Some people existed to serve him, and even giving their lives at any moment was an inevitable part of that. Since such inevitability existed, Wang Wang Canghai had no need to live weighed down by guilt.

But only Zhang Lin knew clearly that it wasn't that he wouldn't feel guilt—rather, from the moment he was born, from the moment he came into this world, Wang Wang Canghai had no idea what guilt even was.

Moreover, everything he later took in that was所谓的 that era's new things had already caused a drastic shift in his temperament, which was also the reason Mr. Wang would make such an ambiguous choice.

And right now, Zhang Lin directly cut off Mr. Wang's thought of continuing to speak, and asked at once: "I know you must have something important to contact me directly about, but if what you're about to say truly doesn't interest me, then this cooperation will fall apart on the spot."

Hearing these words, Wang Wang Canghai couldn't help but draw in a sharp breath; he'd never in his life imagined Zhang Lin could act so decisively, not giving him even the slightest chance to sense what was coming.

But this was precisely Zhang Lin's consistent style of doing things—he never gave his opponents a chance, including a second chance to his partners.

At the start, Wang Wang Canghai had lowered his posture to such a degree precisely because he wanted to reach a cooperation with him, yet Zhang Lin had never agreed. And looking at Mr. Wang now, having obtained such an opportunity, he didn't cherish it.

Then this outcome was certainly destined—Mr. Wang couldn't get what he wanted, which was inevitable given that he had nothing important to say, or anything that interested Zhang Lin to lead the way.

Mr. Zhang himself understood this point, so he didn't beat around the bush, and made a great effort to shake off the previous negative emotions.

He immediately said hurriedly into the phone: "Mr. Zhang, my thinking is that drifting on the sea now isn't a solution. I feel that since he's already gone to the Second Archaeology Team, then don't blame me for being selfish when I say this! I think the most dangerous place right now is the safest. Rather than wandering the ends of the earth, it would be better to go back to the old nest. That way, the entire Wang family might be able to help you even better."

Mr. Wang blurted all of this out in one go, and at the same time he felt an unusual sense of relief, finally setting down the heavy burden in his heart. For Mr. Wang, it took a great deal of courage to speak these words.

If Zhang Lin didn't agree, then so be it, but what was very likely to follow was an even more serious result—Zhang Lin, just as he had said before, directly overturning the cooperation itself, making the entire Wang family end up with nothing.

Although that wasn't the result Mr. Wang wanted to see, since fortune favors the bold, he couldn't afford to think about all that messy stuff—just do his best and leave the rest to fate.

If fate wasn't on his side, then he'd accept it. He'd simply continue his current journey and act as if none of the previous things had happened. In any case, the two squads he'd sent out—Wang Hu's side definitely couldn't be pulled back together.

And now, with Zhang Lin not letting the other group appear, in this window he could completely call that other group and have them quietly withdraw, no longer following Zhang Lin's orders. That said, it would certainly cause the Wang family to once again incur Zhang Lin's wrath afterward.

But under extremely dangerous circumstances, Mr. Wang didn't care about these things anymore, and he kept telling himself in his heart that none of this was his fault.

Who told Zhang Lin not to agree to the things he'd said? Then getting this result was certainly inevitable. Little did he know that the so-called inevitability he spoke of was nothing but a front, merely to satisfy a little vanity in his heart. Sometimes, the inevitability that appeared in his perception was nothing but a joke.

Just like right now—Mr. Wang had become the biggest joke. But by a stroke of luck, Mr. Wang guessed Zhang Lin's intentions in the most extreme way, using the worst possible thoughts to predict the outcome of this matter.

And in his perception, Zhang Lin was fully qualified and had every reason to be unreasonable, but this time Zhang Lin truly wanted to give them a chance, rather than pressing the attack at every turn.

He couldn't think too badly of Zhang Lin, but he also couldn't think of him as too merciful—that was the true way to play against Zhang Lin. If he couldn't even do this much, then he didn't deserve to lead the Wang family, and might as well find some place to farm.

But taking it a step further—if a person were truly desperate, when they saw that one sliver of hope, let alone laying down arms and going back to the fields, even if it really were like Zhang Lin described every time—hiding in the sewers to drag out a miserable existence—such a person would probably still agree.

But Mr. Wang was precisely not that kind of person. On the contrary, his former master, including the King of Ten Thousand Slaves, were exactly that kind of person—they would rather lose all their dignity than die, hoping only to stay alive.

They didn't care what price they paid, and they were convinced that as long as they lived, there was hope. This was where true immortality harmed people—it seemed to grant them eternal life, but in reality it left their path迷茫.

It's just that Zhang Lin had only given a rough outline of the situation before, and had also issued a reminder. At that time, Wang Wang Canghai had still been discussing the subsequent cooperation with him, and had even wanted to give himself up.

A portion of vested interests hoped Zhang Lin would relent, then let him escape scot-free, or at least not interfere with the Second Archaeology Team's situation, even ordering Yang Lu Si to hand over the Muchen Zhu directly.

Regarding such a thing, Zhang Lin certainly couldn't agree. Even setting aside his special relationship with Yang Lu Si, Zhang Lin wouldn't pay the man any attention, because this was an absolute matter of principle.

Once such a principle was lost, all the subsequent things would lose their entire meaning for Zhang Lin. This was what Zhang Lin truly wanted to say.

He believed some things were completely unnecessary, such as cooperating with Wang Wang Canghai. If his strength truly couldn't reach above that Fan Chou, and he needed to take some detours to achieve the corresponding goals, then perhaps Zhang Lin would also say something soft for once, making a relatively less dignified choice.

But after striving for so long, Zhang Lin had made himself stand at this peak, and the facts once again best proved Zhang Lin's strength.

In other words, he could now disregard anyone's feelings and do all of this. For him, the hardest part was, when Wang Wang Canghai came to the Second Archaeology Team, how he could protect Yang Lu Si from afar.

And what kind of response he should make the other party give so that no corresponding偏差 would occur.
