Liu Jing was excited, ready to continue reporting to the big boss, Nangong Mo.
Who knew.
This ti the call was even harder to make, and in the end, it was directly cut off. He didn’t know what the big BOSS was busy with, but he couldn’t share the good news of making big money for Shark Live imdiately!

At this very mont.
The thirteenth level of the Underground Palace.
Nangong Mo was face to face with Bao Gucheng, with his hand pressing on a coral bead on a Sea Coral by the door.
Clearly, that coral bead was a button for a hidden chanism door.
Perhaps with just a slight turn, the staircase would collapse, sending Bao Gucheng and Gu Jingyan on the opposite side tumbling into a bottomless underground space, forever buried in an unknown deep pit.
Cold sweat raced up Gu Jingyan’s back.
Yet Bao Gucheng seed completely oblivious to the danger, still provocatively facing Nangong Mo, the madman: "Oh really, want dead? Then let’s see who dies first."
The air instantly froze to a teeth-chattering degree!
Gu Jingyan watched Nangong Mo intently, and due to Bao Gucheng’s attitude, his sinister expression beca increasingly unrestrained, as he slowly pressed down on the coral bead with his palm.
He couldn’t hold back any longer, trembling as he leapt forward.
He pounced from behind toward Bao Gucheng: "Dangerous! Stop talking!"
He could have cowardly retreated, rolling back up the stairs to the previous level, perhaps still with a sliver of hope to escape.
However, this mont’s decision barely passed through his brain.
A very vague thought flashed through his mind, so quickly that he almost couldn’t grasp it.
He just instinctively chose to protect Bao Gucheng’s back, wanting to knock him to the ground, to the position next to Nangong Mo, at least Nangong Mo couldn’t blow up this entire level, taking them down together, right?
The reckless impact caused Bao Gucheng’s back to sway slightly.
The man stood upright like a pine, still standing in place.
Instead, it was the panicked Gu Jingyan who was bounced to the ground.
Damn, is this man’s back made of steel? It’s so... hard!
Gu Jingyan fell apart and sat at Bao Gucheng’s feet.
Bao Gucheng glanced down at him, first sowhat incredulous, then disdainfully flicking his sleeve: "What are you doing?"
Gu Jingyan nearly spat blood on the spot: "..."
What am I doing? I’m protecting you, damn it!
If it weren’t for the fear that if you died, my sister would bla for not standing up at a critical mont, on your side, keeping you safe, I wouldn’t have touched you! And you’re calling dirty? Flicking your sleeve!
Gu Jingyan, only responding afterward, realized the vague thought that flashed through his mind just now.
He was afraid that if Bao Gucheng died, Zuzi would bla him.
Damn it, how could he have such an unreliable thought?
What is Bao Gucheng to him, that he should protect this ungrateful and disdainful guy?
The opposite Nangong Mo, with a strange expression, furrowed his brows.
Finally, he removed his big hand from the coral: "You two can’t take a joke, can you?"
Bao Gucheng coldly said: "A joke?"
Nangong Mo, with eyes full of hidden anings, stared at Bao Gucheng: "Out of everyone, I should be one of the least wanting to see you dead so soon."
Gu Jingyan, sitting on the ground, was dumbfounded.
Oh shit, what kind of crazy twist is this?
Could it be that Nangong Mo has taken a liking to Bao Gucheng?
Oh damn!
Does Zuzi know?
Does Bao Gucheng know?
Gu Jingyan looked at Bao Gucheng, only to see Bao Gucheng’s eyes cold and thin, spitting out a few words: "Unlike you, I’d be delighted to see you et your end."
