Chapter 574: Meeting with the Undersea Team! A nervous Lou Wan!

~7 min read 1,300 words

Under these circumstances, Zhang Lin naturally would not tell her anything about the Dragon-Patterned Stone Box and could only remain cryptic.

It could be said that Zhang Lin didn't trust Yin Yin Nanfeng that much, or it could be said that this matter was of great importance, and the fewer people who knew, the better!

After all, walls have ears; Zhang Lin understood very well that to keep a matter absolutely secret, the premise was to try not to tell anyone at all.

Even if your relationship is very good, it is very likely that the matter will be spread.

Just like the method of using the Eye Coal Essence he controlled, and the way it combined with the red and white filaments; this matter had been hidden for so long, and everyone was exploring its secrets.

Wang Wang Canghai had searched for such a long time, only to find a roundabout answer.

Without the Zhang Qilin blood, how exactly did he make the red and white filaments mutate? Zhang Lin also wanted to get this answer now.

If Lou Wan’s situation had been verified in some way, then in Zhang Lin’s view, the result was already destined.

That was that Wang Wang Canghai was indeed still alive!

The reason he was waiting for these four people now was not that he absolutely had to save Lou Wan; that was entirely done in passing.

But for him, Lou Wan was also very important.

Because only by confirming Lou Wan’s situation could he infer whether Wang Wang Canghai was truly still alive.

Even though he had seen everything corresponding in the Undersea Tomb, Zhang Lin still could not be certain of this point.

If Wang Wang Canghai was alive, Zhang Lin would subtly reveal this matter later at the Crescent Hotel. ===== CHAPTER 996 =====

Let it remain in a state of hesitation.

But Zhang Lin believed that if the other party were still alive, they might already be maintaining a vigilant heart now.

Because he had been intentionally or unintentionally revealing this matter at the Crescent Hotel earlier.

Wang Wang Canghai left behind that golden body of meditation just to make everyone who came later believe that it was him!

And now, as a series of secrets were revealed one after another, everyone knew very clearly that Wang Wang Canghai was not in his own laboratory.

Since no body was found, it proved that this person might still be alive.

The current Wang Wang Canghai might be watching this live broadcast from some corner of the world, his heart full of vigilance. Zhang Lin believed that as long as he revealed a little more, this person would definitely be unable to sit still.

Having lived for these few hundred years, he must be extremely cautious, and he had already made too many mistakes before. Even if he were a genius, the netizens were right about one thing.

This was an extremely cruel person; a general’s success is built on ten thousand bones, let alone someone who wanted to achieve eternal life.

He had wasted more lives than any emperor; everything he accomplished was at the cost of lives.

Zhang Lin made no comment on this; the key was that he was very interested in the person himself. Being able to communicate deeply with someone who had achieved eternal life hundreds of years ago, using a method that was both the same and not quite the same as his own, was worth it.

If this person still held the mentality of killing to silence or wanting to stir up trouble, then Zhang Lin would certainly not show mercy. For however many years he could live, Zhang Lin could make him die thoroughly that much sooner.

On this point, Zhang Lin was quite confident.

The current Zhang Lin was actually an insider, but he had always maintained the mentality of an outsider.

Those involved are confused, while bystanders are clear; it was precisely because he had such a mentality that he could see things others could not see through.

In the corner, the four people were waiting, and Lou Wan appeared very restless at this moment.

After all, she had not met Zhang Lin before, but through constant exposure, she had long admired him.

She also understood that so many people from the First Archaeological Team had survived and successfully dealt with Sun Wu, and all of this was Zhang Lin’s credit.

Without Zhang Lin, they would basically all have headed toward a dead end.

Looking at Lou Wan’s appearance, Pangzi could not help but shake his head and say, "Lou Wan, don't be nervous, Mr. Zhang doesn't have such airs."

Lou Wan lowered her head at this moment; in fact, what she feared was not meeting Zhang Lin, but that Zhang Lin would turn a blind eye to everything about her or simply not be able to think of a solution.

She couldn't complain about the former; Zhang Lin had no obligation to save her.

Lou Wan understood this point, but if that happened, she was destined to become a monster. Perhaps before she turned into a monster, Lou Wan would make her own choice; even if it meant ending her own life, at any cost, she could not let herself become that appearance of a Forbidden Lady.

Along the way, Wu Tianzhen was also quite satisfied with Lou Wan, even thinking that bringing her to see Zhang Lin was not wrong at all.

Because even in this state, Lou Wan had not fallen into any self-pity; she still maintained that peace, even if her heart was filled with tension.

Yet facing everyone, she still hadn't shown it. Lou Wan seemed to understand what kind of danger these three people would encounter by bringing her along, if not for cutting off the live broadcast signal in advance.

And by feinting, even using the First Archaeological Team as bait, they definitely wouldn't have arrived here safely.

Along the way, there was no telling how many risks they had to experience; those people sent by the foreigners would likely spare no cost to find Lou Wan and take her back.

After all, she was the only one alive who showed abnormalities, someone in the Undersea Tomb who had a state similar to Sun Wu.

Too many people wanted to achieve eternal life; facing the answer of eternal life, they could give up too many things.

In fact, one could look back at Wang Wang Canghai, who had pursued eternal life all the way; no matter what price he paid, even if it cost more lives, he never looked back.

However, relatively speaking, Wang Wang Canghai finally succeeded, but in this era, too many people believed that eternal life was too ethereal and simply did not exist.

So they thought that anyone with wisdom would not pursue this, but these people were too naive and thought wrong.

As long as such a sign appeared, those so-called wise men and so-called power-holders would not hesitate to take control of it directly.

Even if only a tiny sign appeared, it would make them follow one after another, staking everything they had to study it.

Compared to turning into a monster, Lou Wan was more afraid of becoming an experimental subject in a culture tank; in that situation, she would be alive but already dead.

This seemed no different from turning into a monster, and she would even lose her original freedom.

So now Lou Wan was in a dilemma, because neither result seemed favorable to her.

If she couldn't turn into a monster, the changes brought by her body would also make these people constantly come to find her and capture her.

It might even threaten the lives of her family!
