The man with the surna Li arrived faster than expected, making Zhao Yi feel a bit regretful. He had intended to save Li's story for last and arrange it well, but now there was no chance.
He got up and glanced around, not seeing Xu Ming and Sun Yan.
Zhao Yi's gaze slightly condensed; his first reaction was that they might have been played to death by Li.
He had previously ordered in the team that when he wasn't there, everyone should follow Li's instructions; even when he was present, unless he raised objections, Li's command was assud to be followed by default.
Logically, Li shouldn't be this uncouth.
His gaze shifted to the Liang Sisters, seeing their expressions were normal, Zhao Yi felt relieved that there shouldn't be any major issues.
Li Zhiyuan proactively spoke: "Xu Ming is injured, but he can recover."
Zhao Yi waved his hand and said: "Polite, as long as you think it's helpful, that's enough. What is our relationship? There's no need to ntion it especially, it feels too formal."
Li Zhiyuan: "I arranged for Sun Yan to stay above and control animals to set up surveillance in the nearby area for support."
Zhao Yi: "Rightly so."
Sun Yan's role was team support, and her value in frontline combat was inherently limited, especially now with the rger of two teams, manpower is overflowing.
Most importantly, based on past experience, leaving a physically healthy person outside for support is very important.
Chen Jing's gaze moved across Li Zhiyuan's entourage, with the boy's eyes still flickering with rage yet tinged with so tenderness and sympathy.
This state made Li Zhiyuan very satisfied; he originally thought Chen Jing would be bound and controlled, but Zhao Yi's work was indeed done quite beautifully.
Li Zhiyuan: "Brother Runsheng."
"Ah."
Run Sheng untied Shen Huaiyang's head from his waist; although the cranium was pried open and the inside was thoroughly eroded, fortunately, the face remained intact, still could be described as "lifelike."
Chen Jing reached out to take the head, holding it in front of him.
Everything happened too quickly and urgently; a few days ago, he just had a philosophical conflict here with his master, choosing to leave alone. Unexpectedly, in just a few days, his forr master and biological father beca his greatest enemy in this life.
What was more unexpected was that this revenge could be avenged so quickly.
Instead, it left him, the involved party, unable to promptly adjust and manage his emotional follow-up.
Wanting to feel, yet finding he lacked the qualification; wanting to recall, yet the fake mories made him nauseous.
Zhao Yi: "Regardless, your grandparents truly care for you, which is enough. Even if past life has been watered down, you can at least ensure that every step on the upcoming path is grounded firmly."
Chen Jing nodded: "Thank you, Brother Yi."
Zhao Yi smiled and stroked the boy's head, the two seed to have hurriedly improved their relationship.
Pushing Tan Wenbin's wheelchair, Lin Shuyou felt sowhat undeserving for Brother Bin, quietly muttering:
"Uh-oh, got caught in the mont by the three-eyed kid!"
Ordinary companionship often can't compete with sudden intrusion after hysteria.
Li Zhiyuan glanced at Zhao Yi, recognizing Zhao Yi's unusual interest in this kid; logically, Zhao Yi's work was finished, yet he continued to maintain this affectionate stance, indicating he had an unfinished goal.
Could it be that Zhao Yi wanted to pull this boy into his Jiang Team?
Was it the boy's revealed Demon Clan bloodline that piqued Zhao Yi's interest, thinking he had developnt potential?
Chen Jing holding the head, walked to the water's edge, crouched down, and prepared to scoop water with the head and drink.
This is to use his father's head as a drinking vessel.
Perhaps, this is the most direct and decisive revenge and cutting thod the boy can think of.
Run Sheng reached to grab the head, stopping Chen Jing's action.
Chen Jing looked at Run Sheng in confusion.
Run Sheng: "Can't drink, it's poisonous."
Tan Wenbin explained: "There's curse remnants inside; drinking it is bad for your health."
Zhao Yi: "You just keep it; when we get back, I'll help you with preservation and polishing, turning it into a genuine art piece. It can be placed in the living room, bedside, or even in the bathroom as a dirty paper basket."
Chen Jing: "Why a dirty paper basket in the bathroom?"
Zhao Yi: "You'll understand when you use a toilet later."
Li Zhiyuan now confird that Zhao Yi indeed wanted to trick this boy into his team.
Chen Jing mimicked Run Sheng's earlier actions, tying the head to his waist.
Li Zhiyuan began inspecting the restrictions within the water curtain; they were not difficult to break since they were originally shattered, aning if no special person leads, the team still faces threats from internal restrictions upon entry.
Tan Wenbin: "I've checked previously, this area and even the region, used to be a complete restriction. Now fragnted, it's beco trickier."
"I can take you inside." Chen Jing surveyed the surroundings, "But inside, a terrifying being is about to awaken from sleep, Master... Shen Huaiyang has always been under his guidance."
Lin Shuyou: "To what extent is it terrifying?"
Chen Jing: "Dragon King."
Instantly, everyone's gaze focused on Chen Jing, including Zhao Yi.
He had just been busy with psychological counseling and hadn't had ti to ask about serious matters.
Zhao Yi: "Dragon King? Do you an, the manipulator behind everything is a Dragon King?"
