Chapter 1585: Rubik's Cube Beauty (47)

Zhai Chenming was somewhat anxious. He didn't want to be treated like a toy and manipulated by others.

"What are you in such a hurry for? When the time comes, I'll give you something. As long as you follow my instructions, taking their lives will be effortless. Right now, what you need to do is cultivate diligently and strive to reach the peak of your strength before leaving this place."

Zhai Chenming finally relaxed.

He recalled the terrified expressions of those men the previous night, the way they had begged him for mercy.

In the end, he had killed them with ease and even impaled Li Chengqiang onto the seesaw. Watching the man breathe his last before him had finally vented the resentment pent up inside him.

That feeling of controlling everything had returned to his hands.

By the time the sun rose, the corpses at the seesaw area had already been automatically cleaned away by Amusement City, disappearing without a trace.

The seesaw looked just as it always had.

After Tang Guo and Gong Wei finished playing and brought Yi Yingxue back with them, they passed by the area.

Even so, they couldn't help glancing toward the seesaw. The scene from the morning still lingered vividly in their minds.

During the midday break, Zhang Le appeared in Tang Guo's room.

Seeing Gong Wei holding Tang Guo by the waist while the two sat close together, whispering to one another, he awkwardly smiled.

"Middle of the day and I wasn't expecting you two to be... Never mind, sorry for interrupting, sorry."

"What is it?" Gong Wei made no move to let go of Tang Guo. The two remained leaning against each other, both looking at Zhang Le.

Zhang Le almost fled on the spot. No matter where he went, single dogs always had it the hardest.

"What else could it be? It's about Zhai Chenming. His progress is way too fast. I came to ask if we're still sticking to the original plan."

Tang Guo raised her head and asked, "Can you guarantee that if we move against him now, we'll catch the person behind him?"

"No."

Zhang Le looked troubled. "Then can you guarantee that we'll catch the person behind him at the end?"

"Yes."

Zhang Le: "..."

Damn it, does she have to make me lose face like this? This woman was becoming more and more annoying.

"If my guess is correct, that soul's true vessel is the dagger itself. As long as we find a way to obtain that dagger, everything will be fine."

This had been Tang Guo's plan from the very beginning.

Seeing Zhang Le staring at her, she said, "I know what you're trying to say. You're wondering why, since the dagger is in my Trade City, I don't simply use my authority as City Lord to find it, right?"

"Exactly."

"But what if the dagger isn't currently in Trade City? Even if it is, it may have hidden itself using some special method. No matter how hard we search, we won't be able to find it."

Zhang Le suddenly understood.

"True enough. Since it can fool my eyes, it must possess some incredible ability. Wait a second, if it can fool my eyes..." He looked at Gong Wei. "Don't tell me you noticed something unusual about it too?"

Gong Wei replied, "I didn't."

"So only Tang Guo noticed?" Zhang Le burst into laughter, delighted. He walked over to Gong Wei, intending to excitedly punch him in the chest, but a wooden folding fan blocked his fist, causing him to immediately withdraw his hand.

"I just wanted to express that Gong Wei and I are on the same level." Zhang Le chuckled awkwardly. He really couldn't understand what this woman was thinking.
