Chapter 722: Chapter 722: Danger_1

Watching Scorpion hastily leave, the man in the wheelchair revealed an unfathomable depth in his eyes.

"Wesley, I can only help you this far! I hope my sincerity won’t be paid back with betrayal!"

Yan Ling, who had already walked far away, noticed Scorpion approaching her, and unconsciously looked back at the man still at his original position.

As she realized he was still watching her, she waved her hand unconsciously.

From such a distance, she couldn’t clearly see the man’s expression. Otherwise, her actions that day would have been more cautious.

"Isn’t it too dangerous to go in like this? Shouldn’t we contact Raging Bull and Mole first?"

Scorpion was somewhat restless.

The progress of events was a bit too smooth!

"No need. Security in the lab is strict. The more people there are, the more likely it is to attract trouble!"

Seeing Yan Ling’s rejection of his proposal, Scorpion couldn’t help but worry more.

She wanted to remind Yan Ling to be more careful!

But when she thought about the children in danger, she swallowed any words of caution.

...

Yan Ling carried the Jade Thumb Ring, which granted her unobstructed passage all the way.

But when she arrived at the entrance of the laboratory, she saw that the security here was even more severe than when she had previously blundered in.

"Stop! The laboratory strictly forbids strangers from approaching!"

The Hidden Guard responsible for the main entrance directly stopped Yan Ling.

Yan Ling showed the Jade Thumb Ring and said, "I come to borrow medical equipment from the lab under King’s orders."

The guard scrutinized it and confirmed that indeed, it was King’s Jade Thumb Ring.

In the face of the Dark Empire’s supreme leader’s symbol, the Hidden Guard dared not defy him.

He immediately cleared the way, prepared to let Yan Ling pass.

Yan Ling and Scorpion secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

But just as Yan Ling’s foot stepped over the threshold of the lab’s entrance, an unhappy voice sounded.

"Hold it! Stop them!"

The voice was all too familiar to Yan Ling. Turning around, she saw Adam, her enemy, was the one speaking.

The two Hidden Guards, heeding Adam’s command, immediately blocked Yan Ling, forcing her to retreat from the doorway.

"What is the meaning of this?" Yan Ling sternly asked Adam.

"I should be asking you that! Wesley, what are you doing in the lab?"

Adam stared coldly at Yan Ling, like a poisonous snake focusing on its prey.

Feeling his gaze on her, Yan Ling naturally felt uncomfortable.

But she couldn’t openly express her displeasure at Adam, as the mission was of utmost importance.

Coldly, she replied, "I’m here under King’s orders to borrow lab equipment!"

"Hmph! So what if you’re under King’s orders? This place is under Miss Linxi’s jurisdiction. Without her orders, no one is allowed in! From the deceitful way you’re acting, it’s clear you’re up to no good! Guards, arrest this spy trying to steal lab secrets! I will interrogate her personally!"

Upon hearing this, Yan Ling’s heart sank.

It seemed that Adam was intent on seizing this opportunity for his revenge against her!

"Let’s see who dares!"

Hearing Adam’s words, Scorpion immediately took up a defensive position in front of Yan Ling, confronting the incoming Hidden Guards.

Adam sneered, "Ricca, I didn’t expect you to be such a loyal dog! What’s the matter? Have you also fallen for this boy’s looks? But would King be willing to share him with you?"

"Shut up! You have no right to insult my captain!" Scorpion roared.

"Captain? A Captain’s position that was earned by selling one’s body—who would acknowledge it? Would you? Would you?" Adam maliciously questioned the two Hidden Guards near him.

Both of them looked down upon Wesley, but he had just shown them the Jade Thumb Ring.

That indicated his unusual relationship with King!

If they spoke carelessly, who knew if they would offend King?

With these thoughts in mind, the two quickly lowered their heads, pretending they hadn’t heard anything ...
