At the same time, on a street corner, a young man walking by heard his phone vibrating. He took out his phone to check and saw a WeChat message. His pupils contracted instantly.
He casually deleted the message and when he passed by a trash bin, he threw the phone into it. Then, he entered a car and took out another phone to make a call. “Young Master Yuan, they have shown themselves.”
In an office, Yuan Yining, who received the call, had a gleam in his eyes when he heard this and he was unable to hide his excitement. Finally, one of the three forces he was concerned about, aside from Su Jing, had revealed itself.
Yuan Yining was eager to see who these people were, what special powers they possessed, and what the connection was between them and the massive snake scales and the destroyed iron cage.
Did obtaining this power offers significant help in combating Su Jing and uncovering his trump cards?
“Su Jing didn’t notice anything, did he?” Yuan Yining cautiously asked.
“It seems not. He left shortly after defeating Jin Chaowu and saying his piece,” The young man replied.
“In that case, send someone to make contact with the snake-scaled individuals. Don’t go personally, remember to be cautious, and if anything seems suspicious, retreat immediately and inform me,” Yuan Yining said.
“Understood.” The young man went to make the necessary preparations.
At that moment, Yuan Yining’s phone rang once again. Seeing that it was a call from Huo Yunshu, he murmured to himself, “Perhaps Huo Yunshu and Fu Hongxue have already noticed something. They are not fools. It’s time to tell them, and relying solely on my wealth might not be enough. I need their support.”
…
In the afternoon, an ordinary-looking middle-aged man in a suit entered the coffee shop. He casually glanced around the entire establishment before his gaze settled on two tall young men in suits. He walked straight towards them and sat down across from them.
“Jin Chaowu,” The middle-aged man said.
The two tall young men remained silent while the one leaning against the wall rolled up his sleeve, revealing the snake scales on his arm, which caught the middle-aged man’s attention before he looked away.
“Hello, I am the person behind Jin Chaowu. It’s nice to meet you,” The middle-aged man said. It was evident that he was the one responsible for meeting the people with snake scales.
As soon as he finished speaking, his mind suddenly buzzed, and he felt dizzy. He didn’t know what was going on, but his innate vigilance prompted him to react immediately.
He reached into his pocket with his left hand and pressed a shortcut key on his phone, sending a prepared message. However, that was all he could do before he lost consciousness the next moment and the look in his eyes become vacant.
At that moment, an ordinary-looking young man with a few acne spots on his forehead walked in and sat down next to the middle-aged man.
He whispered a command as soon as he sat down, “Take out your phone and call the person you just messaged. Tell them everything is fine and that you pressed the button by mistake due to nervousness.”
This young man was obviously Su Jing. He had consumed magic powder from the “Evil Magic Realm” universe, which allowed him to temporarily alter his appearance.
When Su Jing hypnotized the middle-aged man, he noticed his hand movements, but pressing the button took less than a second, and it was too fast for him to stop.
Even though he had hypnotized the middle aged man in that instant, his hand would still reflexively press it. This confirmed to Su Jing that he was not the true mastermind behind all of this.
The middle-aged man had no choice but to comply with Su Jing’s command. He took out his phone and made the call and a deep voice came from the other side of the phone, “What’s going on? Is it a trick?”
“No, I was too nervous and pressed the button by mistake,” The middle-aged man explained.
Meanwhile, Su Jing sent a message to Su Ti, instructing her and Luo Qilin to immediately track the person on the other end of the call.
“Pressed the wrong button?” The voice on the other end was filled with suspicion as it inquired. “Old Zhang, are you being held hostage? Are you planning to betray me? Don’t forget the favor I’ve done for you, and don’t forget that if you betray me, I can make your wife and children suffer.”
“I would never betray you. It really was an accidental press. The Snake Scale Organization wants to cooperate with us and they want to meet with you. Shall we arrange a meeting at the usual place?” The middle-aged man said.
After a moment of contemplation, the person on the other end of the phone replied, “Alright, bring them there.”
“Okay, I’ll take them there,” The middle-aged man agreed.
After hanging up the phone, Su Jing, the two Snake Scale young men, and the middle-aged man immediately got into a car and headed towards the so-called “usual place.”
Meanwhile, Su Ti and Luo Qilin continued their investigation and they also prepared for any potential mishaps that may happen.
During the journey, Su Jing inquired about the middle-aged man’s situation and learned that he was also unaware of the full picture. He had only been assigned to negotiate with the Snake Scale Organization today.
However, he knew the identity of the person who instructed him very well, so that person must also have a clear understanding of the situation. Once they captured that person, the mastermind behind the scenes would become clear as well.
At the same time, in a luxurious high-rise residence, a young man hung up the phone and furrowed his brow when he saw the warning message. He knew how composed Old Zhang usually was, or else he wouldn’t have sent him to deal with the Snake Scale Organization.
It was hard for him to believe that Old Zhang would press the wrong button out of nervousness. However, he was even less inclined to believe that Old Zhang would betray him.
A foreboding feeling rose in his heart as he hesitated about whether or not to go to the old meeting place.
“Is it possible that Old Zhang has really been kidnapped? Is it possible that Old Zhang didn’t intend to betray us but was forced to, just like the mysterious suicide of Zhao Qirong, the young master of the Zhao Family? Zhao Qirong’s suicide is probably not genuine but a result of coercion. Young Master Yuan also warned me to be extremely cautious and advised against going to that old place.”
With these thoughts in mind, the young man quickly made some settings on his phone, placed it on the table, and left without taking anything, he headed downstairs and drove away without looking back.
