Chapter 3044

~6 min read 1,068 words

Wang Kaixuan sullenly curled his lip; in truth he could also understand the stakes involved, but at this moment he was indeed more anxious than anyone else.

After all, they might be approaching the final location, and as for how much longer they would have to stay inside Kunlun Divine Palace, they had no idea—nor did anyone know whether this place was even the heartland of Kunlun Divine Palace.

The current Archaeology Team Two was completely different from before; the state they presented was one of blank bewilderment, unsure what kind of choice to make next. Perhaps Zhang Lin, supreme above New Moon Restaurant, would give them the corresponding answer tomorrow night, but certainly not now.

Of course, with the changes brought by Xue Long's appearance, they had thrown all such thoughts to the back of their minds. They believed that at this moment the other party must have received Zhang Lin's instructions—only that could explain why Xue Long had made such a bizarre move.

Moreover, Leader Yang was also playing along very cooperatively, and Xue Long and the others had naturally seen through this situation. At this time Yang Lusi still had not returned, and now Wang Kaixuan began to worry.

Shen Qiong and Hu Bayi were the same; they looked toward Xue Long, and the gaze in their eyes gradually shifted from inquiry and surprise to ill will and wariness.

Five minutes passed, and Yang Lusi still had not appeared from where she had vanished. If Xue Long really harbored other intentions, then they would have committed the most serious mistake of all.

But very soon, a single remark from Wang Kaixuan made everyone instinctively feel that their previous thoughts had been utterly foolish.

They only heard Wang Kaixuan sigh with feeling: "Looks like Leader Yang has something on her mind!"

This sentence indirectly told everyone that even if Xue Long truly wanted to make a move against Yang Lusi, and had just now deliberately been digging a pit for her, he simply did not have the strength to do anything to Yang Lusi at all.

Based on this point, they had simply been overthinking just now—and Wang Kaixuan's words had proved prophetic: Yang Lusi really did have something on her mind.

After hearing what Xue Long had said, Yang Lusi was full of emotion, thinking that she might have upset her senior brother, which was why he had made such a choice.

Otherwise he would definitely have been like before, telling her about everything no matter what. Yang Lusi now could not suppress this thought, and she felt that she could not even make a choice about how to judge the next step.

But now Zhang Lin Has Already closed the livestream; if he saw Yang Lusi in this state, he would certainly make another choice at the first moment.

Zhang Lin did not want Yang Lusi to remain sunk in this state unable to extricate herself—otherwise Archaeology Team Two could not continue forward.

But at present Zhang Lin Has Already rested, so Yang Lusi could only try to adjust her own state; she would have to wait until the next day when Zhang Lin woke up before telling her what kind of choice to make next.

Above New Moon Restaurant, Zhang Lin would also Kendingye Society try to comfort Yang Lusi through his subtext. He believed Yang Lusi had merely walked into a misconception for a short time; she was not the sort of overly sentimental and unreasonable person, and would certainly be able to understand his good intentions.

If something really happened to Yang Lusi in that corner, then everyone in Archaeology Team Two would definitely rush over at the first moment to see what had occurred, and try to find a way to rescue their leader.

But at this moment reality was not so. Wang Kaixuan's words had already reminded everyone that Yang Lusi might now be facing a kind of choice, or rather a kind of inner struggle.

As for what this struggle itself was, although they could not guess the specific answer, they were sure it had to be related to Zhang Lin. In Shen Qiong's view, she was convinced it was precisely because Mr. Zhang had given Archaeology Team Two its next instruction that Yang Lusi was experiencing such inner struggle.

Under this premise, Yang Lusi did not know whether to truly act according to the method Zhang Lin had stated. According to this Leader Yang's usual habit, no matter what Zhang Lin said, she would absolutely treat it like an imperial edict and carry it out, firmly obeying his command—nobody found that strange.

But perhaps there was only one exception: once the matter Zhang Lin arranged would cost many people in the archaeology team their lives, under that premise Yang Lusi was no longer certain whether she should make that choice.

At present Shen Qiong's analysis following this logic might not be wrong, but she still did not understand Zhang Lin that well.

Zhang Lin would never sacrifice other people's lives for such a matter. Following his consistent habit, either he did not do certain things at all, or he did them to absolute perfection—just as with helping the archaeology team.

He could not possibly leave such matters ambiguous, so that in the end nobody gained any benefit; for Zhang Lin that would instead be an insult.

He was not Wang Canghai, who only exploited others and never truly helped them do anything. Guiding Archaeology Team Two or Archaeology Team One was never Zhang Lin's obligation, but Zhang Lin had also firmed up his own attitude: since he wanted to use this method to target Wang Canghai,

then the two archaeology teams were now the sharp weapons he could use in hand, and he had also found a way to gather the Wang family people. With these two groups, Zhang Lin could strike from both sides; no matter what thoughts Wang Canghai harbored, Zhang Lin could respond as he pleased.

And absolutely no mishap would occur—Zhang Lin was quite certain of this in his heart. Therefore he could not truly cast Archaeology Team Two's life and death to the back of his mind; otherwise, what difference would there be between him and that insidious Wang Canghai?

This was Zhang Lin's will, and it would not change with the passage of time or the occurrence of other matters.
