Ink City.
After this batch of students entered Divine Ruins, Yu Mo had returned to Light Group and sat in Office.
"By the way, when will you resign?"
"I, Deputy Group Leader, am very embarrassed."
Chu Huai was also sitting in Office of Yu Mo, leaning on the chair, fiddling with a coin in boredom, and muttering.
Since Yu Mo came back, all the piles of files he had were taken over by Yu Mo.
He also became free from his busy state.
Yu Mo only gave him one task. "Continue to track down Soul Hunt and try to catch another one!"
But now, the clues about Soul Hunt are almost gone, and the hostages in hand have also expired.
Soul Hunt is not a fool. After discovering that these people were arrested, he had already moved his position and cut off all the online and offline lines.
Let him catch Soul Hunt's tail in this situation, it is better to say...
Yu Mo put him in the cold palace.
"It would be more appropriate for you to change your question and ask me directly when I will die."
Yu Mo put down the pen in his hand, raised his head, looked at Chu Huai, and smiled.
Chu Huai couldn't help but rolled his eyes. "There's no need to be so cruel. Besides, don't you just want to deliberately idle me and put me in a less conspicuous position to facilitate subsequent arrangements?"
"Whether it's to whitewash me, or use my hidden identity to do something secretly."
"But I came out with Sin City just for the glory."
"Whether I am a hero that everyone admires or a lunatic that is despised by thousands of people, at least... people have to pay attention to me."
"In Sin City, I have been low-key for a long time, so for the rest of my life, I have to stand in front of countless people and let them pay attention to my every move!"
Chu Huai looked very candid, sitting on a chair with his legs resting on the desk, and said lightly.
Yu Mo looked at Chu Huai, paused for a moment, and showed a smile, "I like to be opponents of smart people, but I don't like to be partners with smart people, at least... you have no way to take charge of Light Group right now."
"This has nothing to do with character, origin, or interests."
"You still lack a lot."
With that said, Yu Mo lost interest in continuing to chat with Chu Huai. He lowered his head again and concentrated on the official document in front of him, signing one name after another with an expressionless face.
Chu Huai stared at Yu Mo, not knowing what he was thinking. After a long time, the smile returned to the corner of his mouth, "So, arrest Soul Hunt?"
He stood up with some lack of interest and stretched. The moment he walked out of Yu Mo Office, he returned to his humble gentleman appearance, with a gentle smile on his lips and the aura of a superior. He was friendly to everyone passing by, smiling and nodding.
Generally speaking, in the past two months, Chu Huai has become Light Group Headquarters, the most popular one.
If Yu Mo suddenly chokes on drinking water and dies, Light Group votes internally and chooses Group Leader. Chu Huai will definitely win Group Leader with a big vote.
As for the other people who came out of Sin City, they disappeared from public view. No one knew where they went. Even after a few months, even the staff of Light Group Headquarters gradually forgot about them.
Demon Domain.
Peach Blossom Pool.
"Eight-Tailed Fox Something's not quite right lately."
Old White Ape is sitting on a tree, with peach blossoms falling around it, so beautiful.
But it frowned deeply, as if thinking about something.
"Eight-Tailed Fox seems to be following a soft policy, but it is soft yet strong, so any move that infringes on its interests will be counterattacked by it without even knowing it."
"But recently, I've been jumping up and down Skyvault Ravine so hard. According to Eight-Tailed Fox's temper, I couldn't hold it any longer and took action."
"But... it looks very honest."
"How strange!"
As he said that, Old White Ape shook his head and whispered softly, "It was taken away?"
"It shouldn't be..."
"Or is it that a master appears behind it and teaches it to be patient and to remain unchanged in the face of all changes?"
"It doesn't make sense either."
"The only possibility left is that Eight-Tailed Fox is planning something, and it has reached a certain critical moment."
"In this case, it doesn't even have the energy to distract me, or is afraid that I will affect its plan."
"What could be more important than its ridiculous 'dignity'?"
Old White Ape leaned against the tree trunk, thinking constantly, slowly closing his eyes, breathing in the fragrance of peach blossoms between Fields, as if falling asleep.
Ji Hong sat by the stream, playing with the tea set, making himself a cup of tea and taking a sip.
"What exactly is this thing? Is it important?"
Ji Hong spoke lightly.
Old White Ape still had his eyes closed, but a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Yeah, it's really not important."
"What we need is to cut through the mess quickly when it has no time to take care of us. Here at Within Skyvault Ravine, we can cultivate our own power and gain a firm foothold."
"When it frees up its hands, it will decide whether it dares to attack us again."
"Haha, so, our first step..."
Old White Ape's voice paused, and he took out a gourd from his waist. The moment he opened it, the aroma of peach blossom wine quickly filled the air.
"Black Flood Dragon King."
"Black Flood Dragon King."
The two said the name almost at the same time!
Black Flood Dragon King, this Demon King they had cooperated with and betrayed again.
But in the business world, especially when it concerns your own life, any grudges have become unimportant.
As long as the interests of each other are consistent, there is nothing that cannot be laughed off.
