Chapter 683: Am I Not Your Little Cutie Anymore?
But the furnishings inside were very simple. Apart from the projection screen used for meetings, there was only a long conference table, dozens of neatly arranged mahogany chairs, and a pure white sofa in the center.
This was probably the council chamber of the Azure Wolf Hall.
"Big Brother, you rest on the sofa first, I'll go notify the other high-level members," Zhong Ling left a sentence and turned to walk out of the room.
"If you have something to do, go ahead, don't worry about me, I'm very familiar with this place," Xu Tian waved his hand at Zhong Ling indifferently.
Zhong Ling ignored him. After walking out of the council chamber, she turned around and tightly closed the door.
Xu Tian pricked up his ears and sure enough heard Zhong Ling's cold voice sounding outside the door.
"Guard the door, don't let him take a single step out of the council chamber."
"If there is any mistake, bring your head to me to plead guilty."
After the cold voice disappeared, the footsteps gradually moved away.
Xu Tian held his breath and listened for a while longer, and after confirming that Zhong Ling had walked far away, he let out a long sigh of relief.
There was only him in the council chamber. This was the 18th floor. Obviously, apart from the room gate, he had no other way to sneak away.
And there were Zhong Ling's subordinates guarding the door. It was almost impossible to escape without anyone knowing.
Xu Tian walked to the white sofa in the center and sat down, trying to eliminate the distracting thoughts in his heart, and began to think of countermeasures.
Don't look at that girl Zhong Ling as young, but her wariness was very heavy. Xu Tian guessed that even if he was somewhat similar to the long-missing Wolf King, Zhong Ling couldn't possibly trust him.
And the reason why the other party brought him back to the headquarters was probably to find flaws and expose his identity.
But there was one point Xu Tian couldn't figure out. If Zhong Ling didn't believe he was the Wolf King, why didn't she just kill him directly to avoid future trouble?
So perhaps there was another possibility: Zhong Ling couldn't be one hundred percent sure that he was definitely a fake, so she didn't dare to take action, but chose to keep him by her side for strict supervision and find opportunities to test him.
Then now that he had been strictly supervised, the little girl would probably think of various ways to find flaws in him next.
Xu Tian's understanding of the Wolf King, although not completely ignorant, was still very little in terms of his data and news.
He could only rely on his appearance, which was somewhat similar to the Wolf King, to try to muddle through, but he was not the real Wolf King after all. Such fox-borrowing-tiger-power wouldn't last long, and he didn't even know what method Zhong Ling would use to test him.
What kind of person was the Wolf King...
Even if he was an extremely vicious demon, his attitude toward his subordinates couldn't be unchanging.
Xu Tian couldn't completely substitute himself as a demon who killed without blinking, but at the same time, he couldn't reveal his weaknesses to let the people of the Azure Wolf Hall suspect him.
This was even harder than acting. At least there were scripts, directors, and screenwriters to explain the play when acting. But now, apart from having an empty identity card, he knew nothing about other information, and it was no different from performing without props.
But if a person performing without props failed, at most they would miss the role. If he failed, he would lose his life and be reborn. He just didn't know if he had a second chance at rebirth.
Just when Xu Tian was letting his imagination run wild, a burst of light footsteps came from outside the corridor.
Xu Tian just turned his head when he saw a handsome young man with a slender figure and bright eyes and white teeth break into the room, walked straight to him, and punched him on the shoulder without saying a word.
"Brother Yi, you finally decided to come back. After being carefree outside for these years, did you forget your brother?"
Xu Tian was punched by the young man until his shoulder was numb, and he couldn't help but complain in his heart.
Another person he didn't know at all had come, but the play had to continue.
Xu Tian didn't know who the young man in front of him was or what his relationship with the Wolf King was, so he could only ponder the Wolf King's mentality and answer: "I went out to handle serious business. I encountered some trouble on the way, but now those troubles have all been handled by me."
Xu Tian observed the other party's expression while talking to the young man, trying to infer the relationship between the two.
This young man could break into the council chamber without being invited, and his attack was heavy when he saw him. He definitely wasn't an ordinary member of the Azure Wolf Hall. Perhaps he was a brother who had gone through life and death with the Wolf King.
"You could encounter trouble? This excuse is really original!"
The handsome young man curled his lips, seemingly not believing the excuse Xu Tian made up casually.
"In the years you were away, Zhong Ling and Zhong Yu were looking for you like crazy, wishing they could turn the entire Wuji Island over, but you, old man, didn't have any news at all."
"Even if you encountered some trouble and couldn't get away in time, you should have had time to make a phone call, right? Just when you first went missing, those two little girls inquired about your whereabouts every day, their eyes were almost swollen from crying, but you were carefree and happy outside!"
"I didn't deliberately not contact you." Xu Tian rubbed his nose guiltily, suddenly realizing that it shouldn't be him who felt guilty, and coughed lightly, "In short, I have my plans, and it's not convenient to disclose them to you for the time being."
"You, you're still as casual as before."
The handsome young man sat beside Xu Tian carelessly and reached out to put his arm on his shoulder.
"But after not seeing you for so many years, your appearance has changed quite a bit. They say that women change eighteen times, why has the change of a big man like you also been so big? If I hadn't known you were coming back in advance, maybe if you stood in front of me, I wouldn't necessarily recognize you."
Xu Tian silently complained in his heart: Could the change not be big? He wasn't the real Wolf King at all!
Also, the address of this person was also somewhat intriguing. "Brother Yi," was it because he was the number one person in the Azure Wolf Hall, or was there an "Yi" character in the Wolf King's real name?
"I'm already back now, aren't I?" Xu Tian continued to talk to the other party without changing his expression, but didn't dare to rashly fish for information.
"Yes, you are not allowed to run away from home without saying a word after you come back this time!"
The handsome young man suddenly opened his arms and hugged Xu Tian tightly. The action was very enthusiastic. While patting his back vigorously, he pretended to pull Xu Tian's T-shirt collar inadvertently.
After seeing a lightning-shaped scar on Xu Tian's shoulder, a light immediately flashed in the handsome young man's eyes, and the wariness that had been hidden in his heart vanished instantly.
Xu Tian pushed the person away very disgustedly: "What does it look like for two big men to hug and hold each other?"
Through the other party's behavior just now, Xu Tian could confirm that this person must have wanted to find the Wolf King's unique mark on him, and looking at his expression, it seemed he had already found it.
It was just unclear what similarities he had with the real Wolf King by mistake.
"After not seeing you for so long, don't you miss me at all?" The handsome young man put his hand on him again and pretended to be very sad, "Am I not your little cutie anymore?" ===== CHAPTER 684 =====
