Zu Hengyao's fingers suddenly paused on the table, the smile on his face froze instantly, and his eyes were full of disbelief.

He originally thought that even if Su Lu's siege failed, Chen Lang should pay some price, but he did not expect that the other party would not only escape intact.

This was clearly telling him that he was well aware of the battlefield conditions and his "inaction".

"They still have some human corpses abandoned in the desert. Didn't you send someone to take a look?" Chen Lang's tone was calm, but it was like a dull knife slowly cutting Zu Hengyao's face.

Zu Hengyao took a deep breath and shook his head slowly. There was no hint of concealment in his tone, and even a bit of straightforwardness. "If you hadn't come to me now, I would have been in Su Lu's office at this moment."

His words were both a sign of weakness and a temptation.

Chen Lang raised his eyebrows, and there was a hint of coldness in the corner of his mouth. "You are so honest, aren't you afraid that I will clean up Su Lu and settle the accounts later?"

"You can use me, you won't do that." Zu Hengyao raised his head, his eyes regained the determination of an old fox. He leaned on the back of the chair and crossed his hands on his chest, "Asian Magic Association The water is deeper than you thought. Su Lu fell, and there are more people staring at his position. If you want to gain a foothold in the association, without me to help you smoothen the relationship and stabilize the situation, strength alone is not enough."

He is right. Although Chen Lang has Thunder Power, it has no foundation in the association.

He could kill Asian Magic Association completely, but the result would be to make more enemies.

How can we face stronger external troubles when we cannot solve the internal ones?

The existence of Zu Hengyao is like a key that can help him open many channels within the association.

Chen Lang Looking at the scheming guy in front of him, he felt really helpless for a moment.

The other party made the words "mutual use" very clear.

But soon, a hint of cunning flashed in Chen Lang's eyes, and a smile appeared on his lips again, "In a few days, I will arrange an errand for your precious grandson Zu Xingyi, and ask him to come to me and be the captain of the guard."

"You!" Zu Hengyao's face instantly darkened, and his tone was full of displeasure.

Zu Xingyi is his most beloved grandson. He has outstanding talent and has more potential to inherit his position than Zu Xiangtian, who only focuses on practicing magic.

It was because of that woman that I made an inadvertent move and ended up working as a leader in a small border town...

Chen Lang repeatedly talks about Zu Xingyi, undoubtedly poking at his weakest point.

He knew his grandson's temperament very well. When Qin Yuer was trapped, Zu Xingyi had his cultivation blocked because he wanted to take risks to save him.

Once Chen Lang took action to save Qin Yuer.

Based on this kindness and Qin Yuer's trust in Chen Lang, Zu Xingyi will definitely obey Chen Lang's words as long as he is called to his side.

When the time comes, Chen Lang will have a hold on his life.

"Alas~" Zu Hengyao sighed heavily, his eyes full of helplessness.

He has been involved in the association for decades and has never been so passive as he is now. But facing this weakness, he has nothing to do.

He suppressed the displeasure in his heart, looked at Chen Lang again, and said in a more serious tone, "Su Lu failed the first siege, and he will never give up. Your escape this time will only make him more afraid, and the people he sends next will only be stronger. I think if I am not wrong, he is likely to send his Forbidden Curse Mage Xi Zhe, of course, it could be a strong person that I don't even know comes to attack and kill you."

"Of course I know this." Chen Lang waved his hand, obviously not interested in hearing about these known risks. He leaned forward slightly, his eyes as sharp as knives, "You should say something beneficial to me. For example, how many people can I get help from you? For example, after I solve Su Lu, who in the association should be dealt with, and who can be recruited under my command?"

These words were very direct, and he did not regard Zu Hengyao as a "senior" at all. Instead, he seemed to be giving orders to his subordinates.

But Zu Hengyao was not angry. Instead, his eyes lit up. Chen Lang's ambition was greater than he thought.

Zu Hengyao tapped his fingers lightly on the table, pondered for a moment and then said, "I can assign you three super-level masters who are fully trained. They are all my confidants and absolutely reliable. As for recruiting...Su Lu has a 'Dark Crow' organization, and its leader is Space Element has fully cultivated Super-level Mage. As long as he is captured, he will be able to control Su Lu's information network for the world. In addition, the deputy captain of the law enforcement team can also be roped in. His ability is far beyond that of the captain of the law enforcement team."

Zu Hengyao is pretty accurate at reading people.

The deputy captain of the law enforcement team is not from the Su Lu faction. It happens that the law enforcement team is controlled by Su Lu, so he has no chance of promotion.

Chen Lang nodded, this information was exactly what he wanted.

"You don't have to send people to me. You can arrange whatever you need them for. I don't plan to have a confrontation with Su Lu at this time," Chen Lang said.

"???"

"Isn't he preparing for a huge hunt? I will wait until then to take action." Chen Lang said with a sneer, the corner of his mouth raised slightly.

Hunting?

Zu Hengyao looked slightly confused.

Regarding Su Lu's dragon hunting, so far, almost all the people who know about it are his confidants.

Before Black Dragon Emperor was captured, it was naturally impossible for Su Lu to let this matter spread.

"You will know when the time comes. For now, I plan to stay in Dubai and I don't plan to go anywhere. I will leave everything to you to smooth the relationship..."

He stood up and was about to leave. When he walked to the door, he suddenly looked back at Zu Hengyao: "By the way, don't forget about your grandson. I will send someone to find him soon."

Zu Hengyao looked at Chen Lang's back, gritting his teeth in anger, but there was nothing he could do.

He knew that he was completely tied to the ship of "fighting Su Lu" by Chen Lang, and he would never get off again...

When Chen Lang left Zu Hengyao's residence, he was thinking that the trip to Tianshan Mountain was almost ready!

At the moment, Zhan Kong is just giving a blank check. Once this old fox reacts one day, it will be too late.

So Chen Lang must tie Zhan Kong to himself before that.

With Zhan Kong tied to him, are you still afraid that Zu Hengyao, an old fox, will disobey?

With Qin Yuer's relationship, Zhan Kong can risk his life, so naturally it is impossible for him to have any disobedience.

However, right now, he is basically being accused of this Dubai, and the most important thing is that he still needs to find a way to escape.

Chen Lang When he returned to his residence thoughtfully, he noticed that someone seemed to want to enter his house.

However, with Chen Lang's Space Element magic circle and the blessing of space vessels, even Space Element's forbidden spell is difficult to break.

The other party was obviously aware of his return, and had already left the place the moment he opened the door.

In response to this, Chen Lang acted as if nothing had happened, and went directly back to the house to practice meditation.

As for what he should do, Zu Hengyao will arrange it.

Although the delegation of power is huge, as long as he is strong enough, this old fox will be sensible...
