Chapter 3105: Extremely Torn! Action or Smoke Screen?

Mr. Wang should at least understand one thing — if he hasn't lost, then no matter where he runs, Zhang Lin has a way to drag him back.

Since this point is clear, Mr. Wang knows very well what he should do next. The people he sent here now are obviously not Wang Jie's main force, just a small squad.

But what is their purpose?

The more Wang Canghai thought about it, the more afraid he became. This kind of emotion rarely appeared in him — shock or astonishment, perhaps, but pure fear, basically never.

Only Zhang Lin, through these few bouts of contest, had brought him this feeling of dread. And the fundamental reason Wang Canghai felt this way this time was still because of Zhang Lin.

He was no fool. Others seeing this scene might secretly wonder — could it be that Mr. Wang split the Wang family into several teams and scattered them across the country to cover for himself, thus resting easy? Was this a smoke screen he had created for himself?

But Wang Canghai dismissed this thought at once. He felt it was too unrealistic, and after so many years of understanding Mr. Wang, the man would never do something so foolish.

Because in that situation, the people around him would only grow fewer. Besides, Mr. Wang still commanded prestige after leading the Wang family all these years.

He would certainly not throw away other people's lives just to save his own alone — that went against Mr. Wang's principles of conduct.

Although Mr. Wang would also abandon such things at critical moments, compared with Wang Canghai he still had some loyalty and affection. Perhaps anyone compared with Wang Canghai would not count as a cold-blooded creature.

Wang Canghai was indeed cold to the bone, and Zhang Lin had previously demonstrated this point at the New Moon Restaurant, letting everyone clearly see what kind of person Wang Canghai was.

This was precisely why he hated Zhang Lin so much. Perhaps not being able to cooperate with Zhang Lin, nor become friends, nor pursue a more perfect immortality or ascension together — Wang Canghai could accept all of these things.

But Zhang Lin, of all people, chose to oppose him. At first Wang Canghai found this extremely hard to understand — he could not see what those two archaeological teams could possibly bring Zhang Lin.

And even if Zhang Lin gained great fame at the New Moon Restaurant, what was the point? Was it for money?

Wang Canghai felt that was a joke. A man like Zhang Lin would never lack money no matter where he went — to put it bluntly, he could find an underground tomb anywhere with a casual search.

And using the art of seeking dragons, he could directly locate dragon veins. With his abilities, obtaining treasures from tombs was that simple — he certainly would not lack money.

That would be far better than him showing his face at the New Moon Restaurant now, never knowing when he might become a target for all.

And now everyone was watching Zhang Lin. In this situation, who knew what might happen later — could Zhang Lin forever guarantee that what he said was correct?

What if a mistake occurred? Perhaps if his mistake brought no consequences, so be it. But if it brought fatal danger to the archaeological teams, how would he answer for it afterward?

In fact, this was because Wang Canghai did not understand the archaeological teams and Zhang Lin. The reason the authorities had not intervened was also this — if Zhang Lin had truly reached cooperation with the authorities, then once they saw any sign of danger, the authorities would certainly step in to stop it.

They would even dare to give Zhang Lin orders. But now Zhang Lin simply paid no attention to any of the authorities' affairs.

He had his own rhythm. If the authorities interfered, Zhang Lin would also very decisively abandon these matters.

As for the so-called initiative, Wang Canghai still did not understand what it actually referred to. Zhang Lin could manipulate everything — except this did not include the resurrection of the Ten-Thousand Slave King.

Or rather, what choice the Ten-Thousand Slave King would make afterward. But Zhang Lin had that kind of confidence — once the Ten-Thousand Slave King emerged, there would certainly be many things to do. Or rather, throughout the entire process the Ten-Thousand Slave King would have his own choices, and Zhang Lin could step by step approach the correct answer within it.

How he had dealt with Wang Canghai before, he could deal with the Ten-Thousand Slave King the same way afterward — Zhang Lin was very certain of this.

Looking back at Wang Canghai at this moment, his mind could not help but start wandering again. But this time it was completely different from before — he was eager to find that answer. This matter was very likely caused by Zhang Lin. He truly could not imagine why Mr. Wang would send people back to the country.

He had taken a bumpy train all the way here just to catch a plane. If these people held the same idea, then Wang Canghai felt he was already close to that answer.

Although he found it somewhat hard to believe, he had to accept reality. And that reality was that Zhang Lin had not only turned Wang Cen and Su Nan, but also the earlier Xue Long and others.

Even Mr. Wang himself had taken Zhang Lin's side. If before, when Mr. Wang had called him and explained this matter plainly, Wang Canghai had only considered it the other's nonsense.

But now, seeing this reality, he could not help but believe it — yet he truly could not understand why Mr. Wang would have such great boldness.

He did not know that regarding the two archaeological teams, behind all these matters, aside from himself, it was Mr. Wang who had done the most.

Even the initial Cold Wind and Wang Cen had only become this way after receiving Mr. Wang's orders. Although he was the mastermind behind it, others would not see this point — this was the first thing Wang Canghai could not understand.

The second thing — if this matter really was as he imagined, then why would Zhang Lin accept Mr. Wang's defection?

This completely defied logic. Could it be simply because Mr. Wang brought the entire Wang family with so many people who could be used by Zhang Lin? Or rather, all the efforts Wang Canghai had made before — building the entire Wang family, all the resource allocation — now belonged to Zhang Lin.
