Chapter 708: It's not scientific at all

"Hahaha, the Divine Dragon is worthy of being Brother Yi's pet; it can still recognize its master after not seeing Brother Yi for so long." Zhong Yu ran over happily, wanting to hug the white wolf's neck.

"Awoo!"

Before she could touch it, the white wolf bared its sharp teeth at her, snarling and issuing a dangerous warning, not knowing how to be gentle at all.

"Tch, what are you snarling for! When I find a chance, I'll definitely rub all your fur off!" Zhong Yu complained to Xu Tian aggrievedly. "Brother Yi, hurry up and control it!"

Xu Tian:...

He couldn't control this big guy.

But under Zhong Ling's tiger-like gaze, he still tried to speak.

"Divine Dragon."

"Awoo..." The white wolf lay down at Xu Tian's feet somewhat reluctantly.

"Brother Yi, it really only listens to you." Zhong Yu touched the white wolf's big head with novelty; this time, the white wolf really didn't threaten her anymore.

Zhong Ling's eyes dimmed, and she speculated in her heart.

Could this guy really be Brother Yi?

Otherwise, how to explain that the Divine Dragon had absolutely no aggression when facing him, but instead looked obedient and fawning?

Zhong Ling had never trusted Xu Tian, and as Xu Tian returned to the Azure Wolf Hall headquarters, her suspicion of this person intensified.

But no matter what means she used to test this person, he could respond appropriately every time; although not flawless, she could never find any cracks.

This time she brought the white wolf back, intending for the white wolf to identify whether Xu Tian was the real Wolf King, but the result surprised her.

The white wolf was a very fierce wild beast; once it recognized a master, it would never change. If the Wolf King in front of her was really a fake, how did he make the white wolf lower its guard?

In fact, not only was Zhong Ling surprised, but even Xu Tian himself was very shocked; he didn't know why the Wolf King's pet would be so close to him.

But this was a good thing for him anyway; at least he wouldn't be exposed by Zhong Ling making a fuss.

Or perhaps it was because he was naturally prone to making small animals lower their guard; for example, the snow lion that Tang Bingyan raised before would also retract its fangs and claws when it saw him.

"Wolf King!"

Just as Xu Tian bent down to reward the white wolf with some petting, an older man ran over in a hurry.

As soon as he walked

into the room, he saw the white wolf lying at Xu Tian's feet and said in surprise: "Isn't this the Wolf King's pet, the Divine Dragon? It was actually brought back!"

"Awoo!"

Seeing the older man, the white wolf immediately returned to its snarling, violent state, scaring the older man into taking several steps back: "My Lord, please control it!"

Xu Tian turned to look at the older man who had entered; he had some impression of this person. When he was at Xiang Yunfei's house before, this person was following Zhong Ling.

"Speak of business," Xu Tian said indifferently.

"Ah, it's like this," the older man said with a smirk. "My subordinates caught a few suspicious people nearby. I think their identities are problematic; they might have been sent by other hostile forces to scout for information, so I came to ask for your instructions on how to deal with them."

Actually, if such a thing happened normally, he would have directly let his subordinates deal with those suspicious people, but this time, when the Wolf King returned, he didn't often spar with him as usual. He didn't know if his own behavior at the Xiang family that day had annoyed the Wolf King, to the point that the other party didn't want to see him anymore.

Therefore, he used those suspicious people as an excuse to actively run to the Wolf King to brush up his presence.

"Does such a small matter need me to handle it for you?" Xu Tian feigned anger. "Then what use do I have for you?"

"My Lord is right to reprimand me," the older man still stood in front of Xu Tian with a fawning face. "It is my incompetence; please instruct me, My Lord."

"Then go investigate their identities. If they are undercover agents sent by hostile forces, lock them up and interrogate them with torture; if not, just drive them out. There is no need to kill them all."

Although Xu Tian felt that the real Wolf King's style would probably not leave any survivors, his foundation was not yet stable, and there were countless eyes in the headquarters staring at him, so he didn't want to cause extra trouble.

"You got it!"

The older man responded and turned to leave. When he reached the door, he suddenly remembered something, stopped, and turned to say to Xu Tian: "My Lord, I heard them claim to be subordinates of the Shadow, and they even asked us to let them go for the sake of the Shadow Master."

Shadow?

Zhong Ling and Zhong Yu, who were on the side, looked at each other, a flash of doubt in their eyes.

Shadow was indeed a very terrifying organization,

even on par with Thorn, but a long time ago, the Yun family had publicly declared that the so-called Shadow organization and the Shadow Master were both fictional, meaning that Shadow did not exist in this world at all.

Then how could these people claim to be the Shadow Master's subordinates?

"Brother Yi, I feel there is something strange about this; why don't you go and interrogate them yourself?" Zhong Yu suggested.

Xu Tian didn't respond; a very strong premonition of unease arose in his heart.

These people claiming to be the Shadow Master's subordinates, could they be A Biao and the others?

But A Biao and the others should be in Huaxia right now; they had no chance and no ability to come to Wuji Island.

But what if it really was them? Wouldn't his identity be completely exposed?

He had dodged Zhong Ling's tests again and again; if he fell into the hands of those bounty hunters, there would be no possibility of explanation, and he would fail at the last hurdle.

Countless thoughts flashed through Xu Tian's mind, and finally, he suppressed his suspicion.

It must be that he was too paranoid. Thinking about it, it couldn't be A Biao and the others. From Huaxia to Wuji Island, it was a long way, and they didn't have transit visas; it was impossible for them to get on the island.

It was probably some people who firmly believed in the existence of Shadow, using the name of the Shadow Master to try to muddle through.

"My Lord, do you want to go take a look?" the older man asked.

"Go," before Xu Tian could speak, Zhong Ling answered for him. "Brother Yi, since someone dares to impersonate the Shadow Master's subordinates, you should go take a look."

Xu Tian: "..."

This girl really didn't miss any opportunity to test him.

"Then let's go take a look."

Although he was reluctant in his heart, he still followed the older man out of the room and headed toward the dungeon of the headquarters.

At the same time, in the dungeon of the Azure Wolf Hall headquarters, A Biao and the others were sitting on dry straw, sighing.

That Queen of the dark forces was too unreliable, wasn't she? Didn't she say their boss was at the Azure Wolf Hall right now? But as soon as they got close, they were caught, and even after stating their identities, they still couldn't escape the fate of being thrown into the dungeon.

What on earth was going on?

Normally, the Shadow Master's reputation on Wuji Island should be known to everyone; they had already reported their names, and the other party didn't give them any face at all. This was simply not scientific! ===== CHAPTER 709 =====
