Chapter 299: Chapter 298: A Mysterious Choice Between Two Factions

Seeing Xiong Kang bringing Lu Zixun in, Zeng Haoyang casually pointed to the sofa beside him, signaling them to wait there.

Lu Zixun didn’t disturb the busy Zeng Haoyang either.

He took out his mobile phone to charge it, held the phone, and started playing on his own.

When Gongsun Li, dressed in office attire, came to hand over documents, she noticed Lu Zixun.

She then stood in front of Lu Zixun, looking at him as he lay snacking on chips and watching a movie.

Lu Zixun, whose nose had caught a whiff of fragrance, raised his head to see a pair of long legs.

Upon seeing it was Gongsun Li, Lu Zixun got up from the sofa and offered her a place to sit.

"I’d rather not sit."

Shaking her head, Gongsun Li lifted her hand and flipped her hair back, "In a few days is the Gongsun Family’s festival, Lord Cat, you can’t miss it."

At these words, a look of confusion appeared in Lu Zixun’s eyes, as he was unaware of this festival.

"The Gongsun Family’s festival usually starts around this time. It’s essentially a chance for the clan’s members to meet the Clan Leader and the Guardian Beast."

Pausing for a moment, Gongsun Li gave an apologetic smile, "I should have mentioned it earlier, but the past few days were too hectic. Now that I’ve seen you, I thought I’d let you know."

"Why the formality all of a sudden, as if we haven’t seen each other for days? There’s no need to be so formal with me."

Waving his hand, Lu Zixun smiled, "Just send the details to my phone, and you can pick me up when it’s time."

"Um..."

Embarrassed, Gongsun Li lowered her head and softly called out to Lu Zixun, her cheeks blushing rosy red before she turned and darted out of the office.

With Gongsun Li’s voice drowned out by the television, Lu Zixun looked up in surprise at her hurried retreat, slightly confused, he tinkered with his ear.

"All you do is eat chips as soon as you get here, why not grab some cola too?"

Zeng Haoyang, having finished his work, stood with his hands behind his back, looking at Lu Zixun with a teasing expression.

"Ah, old man, you finished up?"

Lu Zixun quickly got up and patted the seat next to him in a sycophantic manner, "Please, have a seat."

From a cat’s body, Zeng Haoyang actually saw the spirit of a dog.

Immediately, Zeng Haoyang couldn’t help but shake his head with a mix of laughter and chagrin.

"Eat the chips, enjoy the chips."

Lu Zixun passed the chips toward Zeng Haoyang with a fawning gesture.

"Out with it, you specifically came to see me today, and you’ve been so solicitous. Is there something you want to ask me?"

Putting the chips back in front of Lu Zixun, Zeng Haoyang lifted his tea cup and observed him.

"It’s nothing special."

Organizing his thoughts, Lu Zixun asked cautiously, "I just wanted to ask, who was behind the Flame Worm incident at the Lu family residence?"

Zeng Haoyang paused mid-sip, his brow furrowing slightly.

Then, as if nothing had happened, he slowly set his cup down, "I’m not too sure about that. It seemed to be a coincidence that it was nearby when the tragedy occurred."

Not waiting for Lu Zixun to respond, Zeng Haoyang changed the subject, "People from Zhenfei will be visiting in a few days. Are you prepared?"

"Yes."

Seeing that Zeng Haoyang didn’t want to discuss it, Lu Zixun nodded and continued the conversation, "I just heard from Kang Ning that they were going to visit Sto before heading to the Ancient God Sect, is that correct?"

"Right, no matter how complex the private situation between Zhenfei and Sha Fei may be, public ceremonies must still be observed."

Nodding slightly, Zeng Haoyang’s eyes flashed with a sharp light, "When the time comes, you must seize the right moment to act."

There’s a message between the lines...

Lu Zixun looked up at Zeng Haoyang and immediately understood.

People from Zhenfei could be killed, but just not within the STO.

Once outside the STO, that would be the moment Lu Zixun could take action.

"What are their strengths? Any above S-level?"

To be on the safe side, Lu Zixun still asked.

"Don’t even mention S-level, there aren’t even any A-level ones."

Shaking his head and sighing slightly: "Recently within the Crimson Land, the offensive of the Insect Clan has become increasingly fierce, and Sha Fei is having a hard time coping, let alone dealing with Zhenfei that has to face sudden raids by the Insect Clan’s strike teams."

"Then I’m relieved."

Lu Zixun, feeling relieved, then sensed something amiss.

He looked up sternly at Zeng Haoyang: "You would actually allow me to carry out such an action that consumes internal strength?"

Upon hearing this, Zeng Haoyang smiled, sighed softly, "Why does Sha Fei have an STO in human society, while Zhenfei does not? Have you ever thought about the reason for this?"

As soon as these words came out, it was as if a bolt of lightning had passed through Lu Zixun’s mind.

The pieces he had not understood before suddenly clicked into place.

He had wondered why Zhenfei was so insistent on not letting go of the Ancient God Sect.

It seemed it was not only because they valued the Ancient God Sect’s influence in human society, but also because they did not want the STO to trip them up in the shadows.

"Good if you understand, there are some things you should not know now, so don’t ask."

Zeng Haoyang patted Lu Zixun’s head, his smile broadening: "When it’s time for you to know, even if you don’t ask, I’ll tell you."

Before Lu Zixun could speak, Zeng Haoyang got up and walked towards the desk.

He suddenly stopped halfway, saying indifferently: "Zhenfei’s personnel will arrive in Lingchuan City from the Crimson Land the day after tomorrow. Go ahead and do it, Sha Fei will help you hide your tracks."

Lu Zixun, sprawled on the couch watching TV, had an unfocused gaze, his mind wandering.

Regarding the killing of Zhenfei’s personnel, Sha Fei did not object but instead seemed to have an encouraging demeanor.

This meant that the Crimson Land was not absolutely harmonious either.

He sighed softly.

Lu Zixun was now somewhat worried – if Sha Fei was not a match for Zhenfei in their internal struggles, what would happen to the people he cared about?

As Lu Zixun was lost in thought, a pair of large hands covered his head and rubbed vigorously.

Lu Zixun, snapping back to reality, looked up and saw Xiong Kang in surprise,

Then he raised his paw and slapped away his hand fiercely: "Why did you come over?"

"Here to give you a badge."

Xiong Kang tossed a badge engraved with "Deceit" to Lu Zixun.

Stretching lazily, Xiong Kang said: "It was quite difficult to get it to call out, so hard to deal with."

Putting the badge away, Lu Zixun looked up and asked, "What should we do with Lu Ye next?"

"Send him to the Human Gathering Place behind the front lines of the Insect Clan, and give the Insect Clan some trouble."

Shrugging, Xiong Kang sighed: "The battles in the Crimson Land are getting more intense. For someone who’s afraid of gunfire like me, I really don’t want to go in."

It seemed Xiong Kang noticed the disdain in Lu Zixun’s expression.

Annoyed, Xiong Kang slapped Lu Zixun’s back: "What kind of look is that, you little rascal? Let’s go, I’ll take you home, I’ve got a date."
