CHAPTER 2617: CHAPTER 2618: IT GOT AWAY

Of course, when he said this to Captain Liu, he wasn’t aiming to gain anything, but rather wanted to increase the friction between Captain Liu and Lin Caisang’s group.

After all, Captain Liu and his team contributed nothing, yet they seek benefits. How would Lin Caisang view them?

She would probably think these people are too greedy, wouldn’t she?

"Well...let me ask."

Captain Liu hesitated for a moment, but eventually responded.

He considered that the thing wasn’t his; even if Lin Caisang’s group killed that advancing furious demon, he hadn’t contributed at all.

However, knowing the demon’s power, he imagined the item must be valuable, and asking about it would cost him nothing, right?

If Lin Caisang could give him something, it would be great. If not, he wouldn’t force it and would treat it as a joke with Lin Caisang’s group.

Upon hearing this, Lu Tianfeng’s thin lips curled into a silent smile.

This Captain Liu was really easy to coax; with just a casual comment, he dared to think it and dared to act on it.

With so many people present, if Lin Caisang got the item and gave it to Captain Liu, what about the others? Should they share or not? This matter required some careful consideration.

...

After a long while, even people from Yuan Jue’s team began to grow impatient.

Finally, Sui Zimo and Lin Caisang rushed over from behind.

"Sangsang, Zimo, how did it go? Did you find the demon?" Lin Changhong immediately rushed forward to ask when he saw them.

Upon hearing this, Lin Caisang looked up and glanced at the others who were watching them, then let out a soft laugh.

"The formation was ruined, but the demon was too powerful and it escaped," she said quietly.

These people didn’t help at all, yet aimed to take advantage of her. Did they really think she and her husband would share the spoils after defeating the demon?

Of course, she could see that within Yuan Jue’s team, except for Ling Xue’er, nobody held such thoughts. Most of the greedy looks came from Captain Liu’s team.

Chief among them was Captain Liu himself.

It seemed someone started causing trouble again in her absence, trying to incite discord between the two teams, aiming to make Captain Liu leave them.

A clever idea indeed, hehe.

Captain Liu, who was just about to ask, was immediately stifled by her words.

Behind him, Lu Tianfeng, who suggested Captain Liu inquire about the demon, didn’t expect Lin Caisang to bluntly reveal the fact that the demon had escaped.

He was genuinely infuriated by this woman; her talent for ruining his plans was truly well-practiced!

"The demon escaped? Captain Lin, it seems your and Young Master Sui’s abilities are not that impressive," he sneered, looking at Sui Zimo.

"Yes, my husband and I are well aware of our skills. I’m just not sure if you’re aware of yours?" Lin Caisang countered sharply.

"Uh!"

Lu Tianfeng was silenced by her retort.

He couldn’t help but wonder if this woman knew his identity.

Otherwise, how could she say such things? Would she dare question his abilities otherwise, which would mean... she already knew who he was?
