Chapter 2967: Acting tough with me? Then as you wish!

But Wang Canghai didn't believe that using that method could really turn the tide. After all, Zhang Lin could make the same choice. According to his analysis, Zhang Lin could obtain eternal life, so his strength must also be very strong.

If he personally went into the tomb to interfere with these things, for Wang Canghai, it was basically just waiting for death.

Just now when he called Zhang Lin, the other party didn't say a few words before hanging up directly. Wang Canghai knew this was Zhang Lin's attitude toward him.

And the other party had long since lost patience. Of course, this wasn't because he handled it well, but just that Zhang Lin didn't look highly upon many things, determining that his failure was an inevitable result.

This time Zhang Lin took the initiative to call, and Wang Canghai thought at the first moment that the other party's plan must have changed again, coming to test him. However, this change should come from the people under him.

After figuring this out, a stern look appeared in Wang Canghai's eyes, while Zhang Lin said without hesitation, "Remember what I told you before? You are destined to be abandoned by everyone in the end."

Wang Canghai didn't hold back this time and immediately snorted coldly, "Zhang Lin, if you made this call just to say these bland words to me, then let's not talk."

Zhang Lin chuckled. The other party suddenly acting tough was within his expectations. Since Wang Canghai already had no bottom in his heart and intended to let things go to ruin, there was no need to use any method to try to please him.

Even if Wang Canghai's words carried that kind of flippancy before, Zhang Lin could hear his tone slowly turning into a plea.

Perhaps if they were face-to-face, with only the two of them, Wang Canghai would wish he could kneel down to him and beg for a chance.

Of course, even then Zhang Lin wouldn't choose to believe Wang Canghai, because this kind of person had been high and mighty for too long, and at this moment still wouldn't discard his dignity to seek a way to live.

And if his subsequent choices could develop in a good direction following this kneel, then Wang Canghai would definitely spare no cost.

But once the time was ripe, Wang Canghai would definitely counterattack and bite Zhang Lin without hesitation.

Zhang Lin was clearer about this than anyone else.

After all, Wang Canghai was not Mr. Wang. Even if he lost, what he thought of wasn't shrinking back, but continuing to find ways to go against Zhang Lin, even if the chance was slim, he would still strive for it.

So Zhang Lin didn't buy this set. He shook his head and immediately said, "Then let's not talk. Anyway, I made this call in passing."

Saying this, Zhang Lin prepared to hang up the phone. Wang Canghai on the other side was stunned immediately.

Everything now was exactly as Zhang Lin had expected.

Wang Canghai maintaining that tough thought was only for a moment. The next moment, he had basically determined his subsequent end.

Taking the initiative to call Zhang Lin was one thing, the opposite was another.

When Zhang Lin walked down from the Crescent Hotel, Wang Canghai had already tried to contact him and hung up the phone hastily, which also proved from the side that Zhang Lin had absolute confidence and had once again disdained him.

Although Wang Canghai was very angry about this matter, he also understood that since Zhang Lin controlled the initiative, he had the qualifications to say so.

Now that it was finally the other party taking the initiative to contact him, Wang Canghai had to cherish this opportunity.

If it were in the past, he would still worry that he might say something wrong, perhaps exposing some flaws and letting Zhang Lin grasp some handles. But now Wang Canghai no longer had such worries. Anyway, the number of times he had been grasped by Zhang Lin was already too many; one or two more didn't matter.

Wang Canghai took a deep breath. He was also very glad that Zhang Lin on the other end of the phone still maintained patience and didn't hang up directly. He then asked, "Zhang Lin, did someone contact you? Who betrayed me again?"

Zhang Lin said with a half-smile, "You use the word 'again' very well. But you don't need to worry. Things are not as you think. If I'm not mistaken, you might think that either Wang Cen or Su Nan betrayed you, right?"

Wang Canghai didn't answer Zhang Lin, but he did think so in his heart. Now, Wang Canghai could perhaps accept anyone's betrayal, but it definitely didn't include these two.

Wang Canghai knew Zhang Lin had no reason to lie to him about this matter. Of course, he was also very clear that even if there were corresponding reasons, Zhang Lin wouldn't disdain to use such a method to play against him now.

For Zhang Lin, it was just having that kind of confidence. Even if Wang Canghai had already seen it, he still considered himself to be in an invincible position.

At the same time, Wang Canghai was also glad that because of Zhang Lin's pride, it seemed he still had room to make a response. Under this premise, a glimmer of hope remained.

Unfortunately, this kind of hope was just an illusion created by Zhang Lin for him. For a person like Zhang Lin, no matter what kind of opponent he faced, as long as he made a choice at the beginning, he would definitely remain cautious.

Even if in this process, Zhang Lin showed that kind of disdain for his opponent, it might be nothing more than acting.

It was just that Wang Canghai hadn't seen through this point yet.

He believed what Zhang Lin said without doubt—that neither Wang Cen nor Su Nan had betrayed him, which made Wang Canghai let out a sigh of relief.

But the next moment, what Zhang Lin said made his spine feel cold, and immediately cold sweat soaked his whole body.

Just hearing Zhang Lin say: "Wang Canghai, do you really believe the promise King Wannu made to you?"

Wang Canghai was so shocked he sat up directly. Even though Zhang Lin had caused him too much surprise and even fear throughout the whole process, none were as serious as this time.

Involving King Wannu and the Tiangong in the Clouds, the essence of this matter changed. He was single-mindedly thinking of using this matter to delay time, making Zhang Lin have to slow down his pace.

But as the other party went deeper step by step, the other party would know these things sooner or later. Wang Canghai was still very clear about this point, but he didn't expect it to come so quickly.

Wang Canghai kept pondering in his heart: How did Zhang Lin know about this matter? Because according to his estimation of Zhang Lin's pace, to get this answer, at the very least he would have to wait until the first archaeological team truly entered the Tiangong in the Clouds. It wouldn't be strange for Zhang Lin to infer some things through those details.

But now he knew about this matter directly. Although this was not the end point of the Tiangong in the Clouds or King Wannu, even if it was just a starting point, it showed that Zhang Lin already had a beginning.

If it were anyone else holding this so-called beginning, perhaps it wouldn't cause him any trouble, but with an existence like Zhang Lin, as long as there was a tiny bit of opportunity, he would absolutely not let him go.
