Chapter 709: Brother Yi's real name
"Will we be tortured?" A Biao looked around, seemingly searching for a way to escape. "The people of the Azure Wolf Hall are so brutal; falling into their hands will definitely not end well."
"Wuqing, what are your plans?" Fengwu subconsciously looked at Wuqing, the oldest among them.
Before following Xu Tian, Wuqing was the backbone of these people; when encountering danger, others subconsciously wanted to rely on him.
But at this moment, Wuqing had no way out either.
They were completely ignorant of the forces on Wuji Island, and now that they had just arrived at the Azure Wolf Hall, they were directly caught and locked in the dungeon, which simply cut off all their retreat paths.
"We won't really die here, will we? I don't want to die..." Xia Luo sighed.
Just as the few were sighing, footsteps came from the dungeon corridor.
"Shh! Someone is coming."
The bounty hunters held their breath and prepared for battle.
After a while, a group of people arrived at the dungeon entrance and unlocked the iron chains. The first to enter the dungeon were Zhong Ling, Zhong Yu, and the older man who had just come to report.
"Let us out quickly! We have no grudges with the Azure Wolf Hall; why did you catch us!" A Biao glared at the older man with anger.
They just wanted to come and find their boss and mentioned their identities, but they didn't expect the other party to have no hospitality at all, directly sending people to catch them and lock them in the dungeon.
Were the people on Wuji Island all so unreasonable?
"Shut up!" The older man shouted, interrupting A Biao's accusation.
A Biao and the others glared at the older man through gritted teeth, only Chen Xiaoxiao, sitting on the straw, had an indifferent expression, out of place with them.
Subsequently, Xu Tian also walked into the dungeon. As soon as he entered, he saw A Biao and the others, his face changing slightly.
It really was them!
How did they get to Wuji Island?
And how did they know he was at the Azure Wolf Hall headquarters?
One question after another made Xu Tian somewhat irritable, and his face darkened a few shades.
Seeing Xu Tian, A Biao and the others were energized.
It seemed Yue Moli was right; the boss was indeed at the Azure Wolf Hall.
Fengwu and A Biao were very excited and were about to greet Xu Tian, but were interrupted by Xu Tian: "Are you the bounty hunters who claim to be the Shadow Master's subordinates?"
Xu Tian's voice was very cold, and looking at A Biao and the others was as if he were looking at strangers.
Fengwu and the others were slightly stunned; no one spoke again, seemingly deliberating the intention behind Xu Tian's words.
Why did the boss ask if they were the Shadow Master's subordinates?
Why did the boss look at them with such strange eyes, as if he had never seen them before?
Xu Tian's abnormal performance left Fengwu and A Biao confused.
However, before they could ask, Zhong Ling, who had been silent, spoke up: "I heard from the subordinates who brought you back that you have acquaintances in the Azure Wolf Hall?"
"That's right," Fengwu and the others nodded.
They did have an acquaintance, but they had already found that acquaintance, and he was standing right in front of them now.
"Oh?" Zhong Ling seemed to have caught a handle, a sharp light flashing in her eyes, and then she continued to ask nonchalantly, "Then who is your acquaintance?"
Chen Xiaoxiao, who had been observing the surrounding environment since being locked in and had very low presence, suddenly realized something after hearing Zhong Ling's question, and her expression became serious.
Xu Tian looked at Fengwu and A Biao and the others nervously.
If they hadn't stated their identities, he could have directly introduced them to Zhong Ling and Zhong Yu now, saying that A Biao and the others were confidants he had taken in while traveling.
But now that these people had already reported their names, claiming repeatedly that they were the Shadow Master's subordinates, Xu Tian absolutely could not acknowledge them.
Shadow was a completely fictional organization; as the leader of the Azure Wolf Hall, the Wolf King naturally couldn't impersonate the Shadow Master.
If he admitted to knowing A Biao and the others now, he would definitely be caught by Zhong Ling and have his identity exposed.
Worried that A Biao and the others would let something slip, Xu Tian took the initiative and said coldly: "Since you are the Shadow Master's subordinates, how could you have acquaintances in the Azure Wolf Hall? Or are you lying, and actually have other motives?"
"What?"
"Other motives?"
Fengwu was completely bewildered, having no idea what Xu Tian meant by this.
Xu Tian's palms were already soaked with sweat; he stared at Fengwu
and the others nervously, fearing that these people would say the wrong thing and be caught by Zhong Ling.
Just then, Chen Xiaoxiao, who had been silent, suddenly spoke: "Of course we have other purposes for coming here."
Hearing this familiar voice, Xu Tian noticed Chen Xiaoxiao sitting in the corner on the straw pile. When he saw this woman, Xu Tian clenched his fists involuntarily.
Why was she here too?
Chen Xiaoxiao's grudge with him couldn't be explained in a few words.
If she exposed his identity in front of Zhong Ling and the others, then he and A Biao and the others would all die here today.
"You probably don't remember me anymore, right?" Chen Xiaoxiao didn't know Xu Tian's inner activities; she looked straight at Xu Tian, her tone calm.
Xu Tian's heart sank sharply.
Damn it...
"You know Ding Yi?" Zhong Ling's eyes lit up, and she pursued the question.
"Ding Yi?" Chen Xiaoxiao looked at Zhong Ling in surprise and asked back, "You say he is Ding Yi?"
Hearing this, Zhong Ling's mouth curled up slightly, and she continued to ask: "Then you say he is not Ding Yi?"
"Of course not!" Chen Xiaoxiao denied it in one breath. "He is not some Ding Yi!"
A Biao, Fengwu, and the others listened to the conversation between Chen Xiaoxiao and Zhong Ling with full confusion, their expressions filled with bewilderment.
"Since he is not Ding Yi, then who is he?" Zhong Ling coaxed. "It seems you know him, right?"
"Of course!" Chen Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes impatiently. "How could I not know him? He is the leader of the Azure Wolf Hall, the Wolf King!"
As soon as this was said, Zhong Ling and Xu Tian were both stunned.
"Most people don't know Brother Yi's real name; isn't that normal?" At this time, Zhong Yu said with a smile. "Zhong Ling, don't always be suspicious."
Zhong Ling glared at Zhong Yu silently, but her gaze remained fixed on Chen Xiaoxiao, seemingly wanting to see some flaws in her.
"So the Wolf King's real name is Ding Yi?" Chen Xiaoxiao was thoughtful. "This name is really just like the Wolf King himself... very special. Wolf King, long time no see; I'm afraid you don't remember a small character like me anymore, right?"
A complex look flashed in Xu Tian's eyes; he didn't know what Chen Xiaoxiao wanted to do, so he could only feign thought.
