Could the city lord be involved?
These words made Xia Wu and Zhou Chongguang's expressions change at the same time.
However, Xia Wu was a pure accident, while Zhou Chongguang felt like his secret had been exposed.
Wang Meng caught the expressions of both of them in his eyes, and then said to Luo Yan calmly.
"I know, you can take care of it yourself."
Then he looked at Xia Wu.
"Get up and continue."
Xia Wu struggled, looked at Zhou Chongguang several times, and suddenly sighed, and the half-body shadow dissipated into a black aura.
Zhou Chongguang's expression changed and he shouted: "Mr. Xia, what do you want to do?"
"What to do, of course, is surrender."
Xia Wu raised his hands in a gesture of surrender: "I won't fight. I can't beat you anyway, and I don't want to lose my life for a job."
"I surrender."
"Also, I want to state that the person who signed the agreement with me is Zhou Chongguang. I don't know the city lord or the city lord's secretary."
"I'm just a part-time worker, but I don't know all the details inside."
Zhou Chongguang became anxious when he saw that he had completely brushed off the situation and seemed to be really planning on leaving.
Without the protection of Xia Wu, a strong man in the Tongxuan Realm, he would be a mermaid, he said quickly.
"Mr. Xia Wu, double the reward, no, triple it!"
Xia Wu shook his head: "It's useless ten times."
"I tried my best, but I really can't beat him. No matter how much money you give me, it's of no use if I lose my life."
"So, Mr. Zhou, our agreement ends here."
Zhou Chongguang asked anxiously: "Don't you always say how good your professionalism is, but then you run away whenever there is trouble? Is this your professionalism?"
Xia Wu said with a smile: "If I didn't have professional qualities, I would have just run away after playing two tricks. Why would I have to wait until now?"
"Of course I am a professional person, but my professionalism does not include risking my life for my employer."
Zhou Chongguang changed his words and said: "Xia Wu, if you leave today, you will never have a foothold in Penglai City."
Xia Wu flicked his pigtails and said nonchalantly: "If the East family doesn't fight against the West family, there will be no place in Penglai. I can't go to other cities. Will I still worry about not having a job?"
What he said was true. With his combat prowess in the Tongxuan realm, no matter where he went, there would be people worshiping him as an ancestor.
Zhou Chongguang wanted to say more, but suddenly there was a flash of sword light, and his table was split into two halves.
"enough."
Wang Meng spoke, and then winked at Xia Wu: "If you don't want to continue, don't stay here, I will misunderstand you."
Xia Wu laughed: "I'm leaving now, I'm leaving now."
"Xia..." Zhou Chongguang wanted to persuade him to stay, but seeing the look in Wang Meng's eyes, he could only swallow the words that came to his lips.
Xia Wu left.
Zhou Chongguang's heart hit rock bottom. He didn't expect that tonight, first Fan Zhixing would be kidnapped, then the base would be invaded, and now even Xia Wu would stay out of it.
Zhou Chongguang is definitely not a waste, otherwise he would not be able to stand at the height he is now, but no matter how capable he is, with so many changes happening in less than one night, he will not be able to turn the tide.
Looking at Wang Meng, he gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "Since you know that Secretary Jin is in charge of this base, you should understand that even if you are a strong person in the Tongxuan Realm, you are not enough to fight against the entire dungeon."
"Friends, stop now before it causes a big disaster."
"Get out of here quickly. Secretary Jin, I can give you a nice word."
"Maybe there will be opportunities for everyone to cooperate."
At this time, Wang Meng threw the remaining cigar on the ground and stepped on it twice: "Why, I admitted it."
"Fighting against the entire dungeon, so the Lord of Penglai City is really involved?"
Zhou Chongguang said with a straight face: "Yes, you should know now how much trouble you have caused."
Of course he knew that if he said this, he would be in trouble if his superiors held him accountable later.
But at this point, it's useless if he doesn't admit it. Unless the Penglai City Lord is moved out, Jin Qian, the City Lord's secretary, can't suppress people.
Now he only hopes that after moving out of Penglai City Lord, Wang Meng can retreat.
Wang Meng chuckled and said, "Did I get into trouble?"
"No, it's you who are in trouble, Penglai."
"I didn't expect that."
"I never expected that Penglai Dungeon would secretly develop artificial behemoths."
"So, it is the Penglai City Lord who is behind the Qingyang Chu family and provides financial and technical support?"
Zhou Chongguang's expression changed: "Why...do you think so? I have never heard of the Qingyang Chu family."
He was about to say, 'How do you know about the Qingyang Chu family?', but he changed his mind in time.
But there was no way he could deceive Wang Meng.
"Make it up, keep making it up."
Wang Meng sneered: "Zhou Chongguang, you are about to die, and you are still covering up for Qi Jianyuan."
Qi Jianyuan is the city lord of Penglai.
"Do you know who I am?"
"I'll tell you."
"I am the Behemoth Strategy Office, the Tiangang Dragon Cavalry Division, and the captain of the Earth Fierce Team!"
"The Behemoth Strategy Office clearly stipulates that neither individuals nor groups are allowed to conduct private research on behemoths, not to mention that you are cultivating a behemoth!"
"Even if you are not the mastermind, you are the manager, and a top manager!"
"Do you think you can stay out of it?"
"I tell you, Qi Jianyuan is finished."
"If you still don't cooperate and try to make up for it, you can just wait to be finished with him!"
Wang Meng's words struck Zhou Zhongxin like thunder, shaking his whole body.
He thought that Wang Meng came from some organization or force that also wanted to get his hands on the man-made behemoth.
Unexpectedly, Wang Meng came from the Behemoth Strategy Mansion!
Suddenly.
Zhou Zhongguang's legs softened and he sat on the chair.
After a while, he shouted.
"Captain Wang, this has nothing to do with me. I'm just a pawn they put on the stage."

late at night.
Several cars drove into a courtyard, the doors opened, and people got out of the cars one after another.
A group of people walked towards the door.
Walking at the front was a middle-aged man in his early forties, with black hair combed back and a carefully trimmed beard, wearing a long coat and walking steadily.
As soon as he walked through the door, a woman came to greet him.
Cold and charming, it is Jin Qian.
"Mr. Qi, you are finally back." Jin Qian showed a rare expression of urgency, but still skillfully took the shawl and long coat from the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man who was the Lord of Penglai City glanced at her: "Is there a problem at the base?"
Jin Qian nodded: "We just received a call from Zhou Chongguang, saying that the base was invaded."
"First, a biological expert was kidnapped, and then the base was invaded. The other party acted very quickly and had strong force."
"This cannot be done without the support of strong force."
Qi Jianyuan narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Strong force?"
"There are two Tongxuan realms in our base, so they can't suppress the intruders, right?"
