Chapter 744: Where exactly did the flaw appear?

"Where is she now?" Xu Tian suppressed the surprise in his heart and asked casually.

He had heard of this person named Elizabeth, but he had never met her, and he didn't know if he could handle it in a while.

"In the reception room. Elder Zhou... the Fourth Elder and that girl Zhong Ling are entertaining her. You should go up quickly too." Zhong Yu pulled Xu Tian's arm and rushed toward the elevator room without giving him a choice.

Chen Xiaoxiao behind him frowned slightly at her actions. She was very repulsed by Xu Tian having intimate contact with other women; she believed that even if it was just acting, it was a betrayal of the Young Lady.

However, this was Wuji Island, and Xu Tian was now wearing the identity of the Wolf King, so she could only suppress the discomfort in her heart.

Soon, Xu Tian arrived at the door of the reception room.

After pushing the door and entering, he saw a middle-aged woman wearing a white Western-style dress, who was well-maintained, sitting on the sofa with a cup of black tea in her hand.

The woman looked only in her early thirties, with a graceful figure, fair skin, exquisite light makeup on her face, and expensive yet elegant jewelry—a standard Western-style noblewoman's attire.

She had a pair of amber eyes, and when she looked over seriously, she always gave people the illusion of being full of deep affection.

It was hard for Xu Tian to associate such a charming woman with a business partner of the Azure Wolf Hall.

"Mr. Ding Yi, long time no see. You are even more handsome than before." The woman's eyes filled with a gentle smile when she saw Xu Tian. She put down the teacup, stood up gracefully, walked elegantly to Xu Tian's side, and extended the back of her hand.

"Long time no see." Xu Tian supported the woman's hand and performed a standard Western-style greeting with ease. "Ms. Elizabeth, you are also even more charming."

Zhou Lao Si, sitting on the sofa next to them, stared at Xu Tian with sharp eyes. He had always felt that Xu Tian was a fake, but this person hadn't shown any flaws for so long after returning to headquarters, which annoyed him.

Today, he happened to take advantage of Elizabeth's visit to test this kid properly; it would be best if he could make him show his fox tail.

"Hehe, Mr. Ding is still so good at pleasing women." The woman covered her mouth and laughed, pulling Xu Tian to sit on the sofa.

Xu Tian observed the other party's expression calmly and didn't see anything wrong.

He didn't know the attitude toward Ding Yi before, so he could only politely and distantly exchange pleasantries.

"Ms. Elizabeth, you visited suddenly today; is there something?"

He had been away from Wuji Island for many years and had just returned now; it was normal for him not to be warm toward previous business partners.

"Mr. Ding is still as straightforward as before." Elizabeth restrained her smile and said seriously, "I came here to find you because there is indeed an important matter. I heard that you had a conflict with the Nie family, and it just so happens that I also don't like those old things from the Nie family. I can cooperate with you to attack the Nie family together and make them disappear directly in Kun City. What do you think?"

Xu Tian felt somewhat helpless in his heart.

He didn't want to have a conflict with the Nie family at all right now, and of course, he didn't want to join forces with this woman.

But the Nie family had taken advantage of the situation and provoked him.

If he avoided and retreated, the Wolf King's persona would completely collapse.

"As for the Nie family's resources and forces, let's do it like before: half for each. What do you think?"

Elizabeth added.

"Half for each?" Xu Tian chuckled, his tone sinking slightly. "Elizabeth, it's not the first time we've cooperated. Or have I been away for too long, making you forget my rules? I, Ding Yi, have been in the martial arts world for so many years; when have I ever split things equally with others?"

He remembered that when he was chatting with Zhong Yu, the little girl had mentioned that when the Wolf King cooperated with other forces, he always took the lion's share regarding territory and resources and would never split them equally with outsiders.

So this woman's proposal just now to split the Nie family's resources equally was a deliberate test of him.

"Elizabeth, if you aren't sincere about cooperating, then I don't need to waste time with you," Xu Tian said, making a move to stand up and leave.

His peripheral vision caught Zhou Lao Si and Zhong Ling next to him. Their expressions were both ugly, especially Zhong Ling's cold gaze, as if a storm was brewing.

Xu Tian's heart sank. From the moment he walked into the reception room, he had been secretly paying attention to the changes in the expressions of those two. Now seeing their reactions, he guessed that he must have been negligent somewhere and revealed a "flaw" that didn't fit the Wolf King's persona.

But he couldn't figure out where the flaw was.

"Mr. Ding is still as prone to anger as before. I was just joking just now; don't take it seriously." Elizabeth laughed dryly and raised her hand to make a blocking gesture. "Same old rules: I take 30%, you take 70%. Is that okay?"

Xu Tian sat back on the sofa, but the other party's quick compromise made him even more uneasy.

What exactly went wrong?

Since entering the door, he must have revealed a flaw somewhere, allowing Zhong Ling and Zhou Lao Si to discover it.

"Mr. Ding, I came to find you for one more thing." Elizabeth took a sip of black tea and continued, "The Thorn Emperor has returned, and this organization is becoming increasingly arrogant. Now they are actually collecting membership fees in my territory."

"I don't want to be controlled by others. Why should the money my brothers and sisters work hard to earn be split in half by them?"

"I think, Mr. Ding, you also wouldn't want to pay the so-called membership fees to the Thorn Emperor every month, right?"

"That goes without saying!" Xu Tian said with absolute certainty.

Back then, the Thorn sent people to the Azure Wolf Hall to collect membership fees, and the Wolf King, in a fit of rage, killed them all, thus forming a grudge with the Thorn.

He had already learned about this through chatting with Zhong Yu, so naturally, he couldn't agree to hand over membership fees to the Thorn at this moment.

"Very well! I knew Mr. Ding would never bow to the Thorn!" Elizabeth put down the teacup, elegantly adjusted her skirt, and stood up slowly. "I came over today mainly for these two things. Since Mr. Ding agreed so readily, it saves trouble. I have things to do, so I won't disturb you anymore. I'll invite you to eat at Qingyuan Zhai another day."

Xu Tian nodded slightly, but his peripheral vision looked toward Zhong Ling.

That girl's expression was even uglier. Looking at him now, it was as if he were her father's killer.

Xu Tian felt that the situation was wrong. He must have revealed a flaw, and it was because of this woman, Elizabeth.

But what exactly went wrong?

Just when Xu Tian was secretly anxious in his heart, he saw Zhong Ling take out her phone with a cold face. He turned his head calmly and also took out his phone, pretending to check messages, but actually opened the camera mode and secretly adjusted the lens and angle.

Through the lens, he finally saw the message Zhong Ling sent.

"Zhong Yu, this bastard is a fake! He isn't Brother Yi. You idiot were deceived by him. I'm going to kill him!"

Zhong Ling typed with a cold face. The content behind it couldn't be seen clearly due to the angle, but this sentence was enough to show that his identity was exposed.

Xu Tian's heart trembled violently.
