Chapter Ninety-six Each with Their Own Agenda

  That one streak of clear brightness, silent and soundless!

  The masked woman's body slightly paused, a strand of fresh blood gushed out from the left side of her body, and Zhao Heng's sharp eyes caught a three-inch silver needle shooting out from the wound, which was immediately nailed to a tree trunk. Apparently, the masked woman had been ambushed, but she just pressed on the wound and continued to retreat.

  "Whoosh!"

  Two shrill cries rang out, two figures flashed out!

  Zhao Heng's gaze looked up and saw that the two of them were also shuttling in the forest, rushing towards the direction of the masked woman. The speed was extremely fast, it was rare to see, without a doubt, they were the Qingbang masters brought by Zhang Xiaolin. A complex emotion flashed across Zhao Heng's eyes, but he quickly regained his composure.

  I didn't expect Zhang Xiaolin to be so cunning, I'll have to be more careful when dealing with him in the future.

  "Boss Zhang, I was wrong."

  Zhao Heng threw his axe to the ground: "I didn't expect the opponent to be so powerful."

  Zhang Xiaolin's face flashed with a hint of playfulness, and he smiled at Zhao Heng: "Victory and defeat are common in the military, if you escape, then escape, sooner or later there will be an opportunity to uncover the black hand behind the scenes. As long as you believe that Qingbang is not the murderer, it's fine. The friendly relationship between Qingbang and you must not be sabotaged by others."

  At this moment, Zhang Xiao Lin didn't show any despair from running away from the enemy, nor was he angry at Zhao Heng's good intentions turning into bad deeds. Instead, a warm smile flowed out as he nodded at Zhao Heng and pointed to himself: "We may not necessarily be friends, but we are definitely not enemies! That's what Boss Du said!"

  Zhang Xiaolin let out a long sigh:

  "I still remember it clearly, Brother Zhao, you shouldn't doubt me, should you?"

  "Of course not."

  Zhang Xiaolin stretched his waist: "Three of you, now there are people with ulterior motives playing tricks. For your safety, please let me and Qing's disciples escort you for a while!" Then he looked at Du Ziyuan: "Especially Miss Du, safety first, there are too many petty thieves."

  Lu Shu took a step forward and replied politely, "Thank you, Zhang Bangzhu, but there's no need to trouble Qing Bang brothers! Du family's nephews will arrive soon." Then he added heavily, "Zhang Bangzhu, thank you for your help today. Du Laoban will definitely thank Qing Bang brothers another day."

  At this moment, Lu Shu could only trust Du's nephew and niece.

  Zhang Xiaolin waved his hand and said, "It's just a small effort, don't worry about it. Besides, I'm clearing my own name, otherwise the entire Huahai will think that Qingbang is plotting against Zhao Heng, which would damage Qingbang's reputation!" He looked at Zhao Heng and asked, "Is Qingbang sincere enough?"

  Zhao Heng's expression was calm: "Thank you, Zhang Bangzhu, for lending a hand."

  Zhang Xiaolin burst out laughing: "No need for courtesy, I just hope that we can put the past behind us and laugh together!"

  At this time, Zhang Yaolin was very sincere and enthusiastic, like a kind-hearted neighbor: "That sentence is called 'no fight no acquaintance', so Brother Zhao shouldn't remember the past grievances anymore. The bumps and bruises have long passed, and we should value harmony, haha."

  Zhao Heng nodded slightly but didn't respond. At this time, more than 20 black sedans drove over. Before long, the doors opened and dozens of Du family members poured out, uniformly pulling out their weapons as they approached. Seeing them, Lu Shu's last worry dispersed, and he felt a sense of relief wash over him.

  "Miss, we can go now!"

  Du Ziyuan pulled Zhao Heng towards the car team: "Zhao Heng, let's go, I'll send you back to Huada."

  Zhao Heng nodded: "Good!"

  Zhang Xiaolin didn't say much, just smiled and looked at Zhao Heng. When the latter was about to get into the car, he suddenly said: "Zhao Heng, if you have a chance, come to Qingbang and sit down. Maybe we can eliminate our past grievances and not be enemies anymore. Perhaps we can become friends."

  He also added heavily: "I appreciate you!"

  This was undoubtedly an olive branch extended to Zhao Heng, and also indicated that the Qing Bang had intentionally recruited Zhao Heng. However, the latter did not show much joy, although they had only exchanged a few blows, Zhao Heng remained vigilant against Zhang Xiaolin, let alone having heavily injured over a hundred Qing Bang disciples, making it difficult for the blood feud to be forgotten.

  So Zhao Heng just smiled lightly: "If there's a chance, I'll visit Zhang Bangzhu."

  Then he followed Du Ziyuan into the sedan chair and left. This year's head is not every fallen cake that can be eaten, like Zhang Xiaolin's temptation, eating it must double spit out, so Lu Shu gave Zhao Heng a glimpse of approval, this son is indeed a person as Du said.

  Looking at the gradually disappearing Du family's convoy, Zhang Xiaolin's smile receded like the tide, revealing a sinister and ferocious expression. He snarled: "Damn it, thinking that hooking up with Miss Du would make you arrogant? Wait till I find an opportunity, I'll play you to death."

  He took out a walnut and crushed it with a snap!

  In the Huahai, apart from having some apprehension about Du Tianxiong, there was no one else who could enter his eyes. Ye Shisheng was just a plaything he wanted to conquer. In his view, if it weren't for Du Tianxiong intentionally holding back Qingbang, he would have already taken down all the women of the First Floor in bed.

  So Zhao Heng's repeated slaps in the face and refusal to give face, especially the Song family's 2 billion flying away, had long left a bad taste in Zhang Xiaolin's mouth. As long as he had the opportunity to kill without seeing blood, he would take a stab at it. Du Tianyong was fearsome, but after all, he was human, not a god on high.

  "Master Zhang, Heibai Wuchang has lost track of the masked woman."

  Just as Zhang Xiao Lin was about to get into the car, a trusted aide ran over from a short distance away and spoke in a low voice while looking at his master's unpredictable expression: "A man suddenly appeared on the back mountain, with extraordinary skills he beat back the black and white impermanence who were good at tracking, and let the target escape without a trace."

  "A man with one name? What kind of person?"

  Qin Shen took a deep breath, shook his head with a bitter smile: "That man wore a mask and suddenly killed in the dark. He retreated immediately after defeating Hei Bai Wu Chang with three moves, so Hei Bai Wu Chang didn't have a chance to recognize him. I guess he might be an accomplice of the target."

  "Partner... how is this possible?"

  Zhang Xiao Lin rubbed his head, deep in thought, and suddenly a doubt arose that the masked woman had an accomplice who came to rescue her. However, no matter how he thought about it, he felt it was impossible. He firmly believed that the masked woman could not have an accomplice. Finally, he waved his hand: "Forget it, tell Black and White Impermanence not to investigate anymore!"

  "Really giving up the chase?"

  Zhang Xiao Lin leaned back in his chair, letting out a cold laugh: "If we hadn't exposed her true face directly in front of the Du family, or followed her to gather evidence, even if we caught her afterwards, it would be useless. We wouldn't be able to nail her down! Moreover, she was hit by our Soul-Seizing Silver Needle, and her life might not be spared."

  Then she muttered to herself: "This little cheap person is indeed not simple."

  "But I like it."

  He flashed a wicked smile: "The more difficult it is to deal with a woman, the more interested I become."

  "Zhang Ye, actually we could have taken her down just now."

  The trusted aide's face revealed a hint of regret, and he lightly sighed before responding: "It was all because that Zhao Heng kid acted rashly, allowing the masked woman to take advantage of the chaos and escape. Otherwise, as long as we had her tightly entangled, even if Du family's reinforcements didn't arrive, we still could have taken her down when she exhausted herself!"

  "Showing off?"

  Zhang Xiaolin snorted: "Do you think Zhao Heng is showing off?"

  His trusted aide's body shook, but he didn't ask anything more.
