If you want to achieve your goal, you always have to pay something, but what you pay is also a delicate matter.

If what you want to give is something that the other party wants but cannot get, it will naturally be more effective!

Su Tang still remembered that during a casual chat with Song Qingguang in the City Lord's Mansion, he said that he was researching a potion that could suppress supernatural energy, but unfortunately he had not succeeded yet. Of course, his goal was not just that, but to grasp the key to controlling energy through this potion, so as to make the potion that really needed to enhance supernatural energy.

Su Tang couldn't figure out the connection, but she was sure of one thing, Yang Lifan was better than him! Because Yang Lifan had already made this medicine, although it was only made in a short time!

What Song Qingguang was holding in his hand was undoubtedly what he needed. However, the quantity was very small and not enough for him to study the composition.

So, when Lu Nuan was heard outside scolding the team members for blocking her outside, Song Qingguang didn't have time to sort out his tangled emotions. He directly pointed to the storage room where they had been hiding before, suggesting Su Tang and Yang Lifan to go in quickly!

Back in the underground storage room, Su Tang was in a good mood.

Once Song Qingguang takes the bait, he will naturally cover them.

In fact, with her current strength, it was not difficult to control Song Qingguang. But in this situation where the whole city is full of enemies, it is much more cost-effective to have one more collaborator than to fight hard. What's more, there is Yang Lifan.

This kid is very depressed now, and Su Tang knows that he feels like a burden to him.

She wasn't going to comfort him.

Because this is reality.

If people want to live a better life, the first thing they should do is to face the reality!

But she also believed that as long as Yang Lifan worked hard, even if his ability was not among the best, with his talent in pharmaceutical manufacturing, he would sooner or later achieve something remarkable!

At this time, inside the house, Lu Nuan broke through the obstruction of Song Qingguang's men and came in.

She looked extremely unhappy.

In fact, she hadn't walked far when she began to feel something strange.

Song Qingguang's actions were clearly intended to make her angry and leave.

what does this mean?

It is very likely that he discovered Su Tang’s hiding place, but did not want her to interfere!

So she's back.

But Song Qingguang had lost his patience to deal with her because he had something on his mind. He glanced at her and said, "Why? Are you dissatisfied with anything? Because of your 'suggestion', we have wasted a lot of time! I think I need to ask the city lord before taking action again, who should be assigned to the task of hunting down Su Tang, you or me?!"

Having said that, he walked straight out.

Lu Nuan held her breath and quickly looked around, but found that it was no different from before. She frowned, could it be that she guessed wrong?

At this time, Song Qingguang's cold and angry voice came from outside, "Return to the City Lord's Mansion!"

She gritted her teeth and had to rush out to try to stop it.

She had come here without telling Meng Xiang. If he knew that she had secretly interfered with the tasks he assigned to his subordinates, he would probably not react well. The relationship between the two was very delicate now, as if it was at a critical point. If she took a step forward, they would be closer; but if she took a step back, perhaps she would no longer get the help she wanted.

Thinking of the northern city where her father lived, the humiliations she had suffered there, and the oath she had made: "I must make that woman and all those who looked down on her bow down at my feet." She took a deep breath and forced a smile at Song Qingguang...

Not long after Song Qingguang and Lu Nuan left, Wang Mu came back.

He called out Su Tang and Yang Lifan and said excitedly, "Hurry! You two change your clothes quickly. I'll get some things. Try to make yourselves not to be recognized! I'll send you away now!" The two looked at each other and quickly changed into combat uniforms as Wang Mu said.

While Su Tang was smearing the two men's faces, Wang Mu explained the details of the situation.

He first went to the outer city and found that although there were more guards at the city gate, the city was not closed. The hunting team was still allowed to pass through as usual after inspection. After all, this was the way of survival for many people in the city, and they couldn't be prevented from earning money for food and drink!

When Wang Mu saw this situation, he immediately had an idea.

He had lived in the Dead City for so long that he naturally had some familiar hunting teams, and the captain had a good relationship with him. If it was for ordinary matters, he would not want to trouble the other party, but at this time, wasn't it necessary?

So he found the other party, saying that his friend's daughter was in trouble and begged for help. Of course, he would not directly say that Su Tang offended Meng Xiang, but nominated another child of a family in the upper-class district. This person was dissolute and had a very bad reputation. He had heard about this person when he was in the lower-class district, and after he came to the middle-class district, he heard a lot of gossip from customers, so he decided to add another case for him.

He covets the beauty of underage girls and has sexual tendencies!

There are many kinds of children from noble families. The one he mentioned is obviously the kind who borrowed the title of an elder but has no actual power. Even if there is a conflict, it is not difficult to deal with it.

So after arousing the other party's sympathy, he sent a large number of crystal cores at the right time.

After weighing the pros and cons, the other party agreed generously!

And now, as long as they disguise themselves and go to the hunting team, the captain will naturally give them suitable identities during inspection and then take them out of the city!

This plan was really good. Su Tang went over it in his mind but couldn't find any flaws, so he decided to do as Wang Mu said.

With her deft hands, she and Yang Lifan had changed their appearances. Their faces became much more ordinary, and if they were not deliberately done, they would definitely not attract attention.

Wang Mu nodded with satisfaction and was about to go out with them.

At this time, two people stopped them.

Su Tang sprinkled the powder without waiting for the other party to speak. Before the other party fainted, he and Yang Lifan dragged one into the house.

She knew that this was Song Qingguang's man.

Although he lured Lu Nuan away, he certainly couldn't let her go easily.

But I still underestimated her. Do you think these two people can stop her?

Su Tang thought for a moment, then took out a small bottle containing a small amount of powder and placed it in one of the men's arms. She knew that Song Qingguang would probably come back soon, but she also knew that he was obsessed with his research and would be eager to verify it if he got something.

Even if he could only delay a little time, it would be enough for them to leave the city!

But there was one thing that worried her...

After getting in the car, she hesitated for a moment and said to Wang Mu, "Boss! Come with us! If you help us, Meng Xiang will definitely find out, and then you will be in a very bad situation!"

Wang Mu smiled, "Of course I have to leave too, but I have to wait for Lu Nuan to come back. Before that, I will find a strong witness to prove that I was not at the 'scene'!" He winked at Su Tang, "You secretly borrowed my house to hide, what does it have to do with me?"

Su Tang shook his head slowly. "When you were not back, Lu Nuan brought people to search here to find us. She was sure that we had nowhere to go and thought that you had a secret room there, so she wanted to have people tear down the house..." Lu Nuan didn't believe that he didn't help them, so how could Meng Xiang believe it? Maybe, without Meng Xiang's help, Lu Nuan would turn against Wang Mu!

Hearing this, Wang Mu slammed on the brakes, a harsh sound was heard, and the car stopped on the road.

He slammed the steering wheel hard, and turned to Su Tang with an almost ferocious expression, angrily, "Nonsense! This is impossible! She, she is my only relative! My sister's only child! How could she, how could she..."

The questioning words gradually faded under Su Tang's calm gaze. Wang Mu took a deep breath, turned back, and started the car again.

Driving onto the street again, he remained silent for a long time, his face tense and his brows furrowed like small mountains.

Su Tang didn't persuade him any further.

He had to decide for himself what to do. Believe it or not, he knew very well that she had not lied to him.

I just can't accept it.

Soon, they arrived smoothly at the location of the hunting team.

A tall man with a rough appearance but shrewd eyes came out after they got off the car. "Old Wang, are they the two?"

Wang Mu nodded and pushed the two men forward.

The man looked at them for a moment and laughed, "Not bad, not bad." He patted Wang Mu's shoulder across from them, lowered his head and whispered, "Don't be so sad, these two little guys look pretty smart, there will be no problem going out of the city for hunting this time, it will be safe!"

Wang Muqiang cheered himself up and said, "Then I'll leave everything to you."

The man patted him again, straightened up, and waved to the car not far away, "Xiaoliang! Take them in the car!"

Before Su Tang left, he whispered to Wang Mu, "It's not too late to leave now."

He sighed, his face pale but determined, "No, I can't leave her alone. Go quickly, it will be bad if it's too late..."

Su Tang paused, then rushed forward and hugged him, whispering, "There is a bag of crystal cores on the seat, make good use of it." Then he turned around and quickly ran into the car.

The man waiting by the car smiled and muttered, "He's a little guy with a conscience." He waved his hand and said goodbye to Wang Mu.

Because they had identification documents distributed by the hunting team captain, Su Tang and Yang Lifan got in the car and passed through the city gate of the intermediate area smoothly.

When you arrive at the outer city gate of the lower-class area, the inspection is much stricter.

Although he didn't have to get off the car, the captain of the guard who was checking got on the car, contrary to his usual behavior!

Although Su Tang and Yang Lifan didn't show it on their faces, their palms and backs were sweating profusely.

Success or failure depends on this!

The captain of the guard's eyes swept across everyone's faces and finally landed on them.

"These two look very unfamiliar, huh?"

The captain of the hunting team laughed twice, turned around and said, "New recruits! Although they look a little thin, they are quite capable and have great potential! Come on, the two of you come out and let the captain of the guard have a try. Like I said, don't embarrass me!"

Seeing him so frank, the captain of the guards also lost his suspicion and just spat, "No wonder others say you are a crazy captain, you are a piece of shit! Let me tell you, there are people watching here, if you dare to cause trouble here, you don't want to be here anymore!"

"Hehe, how can that be! I just like to attract people! Please take good care of me, and we'll have a snack when I come back tonight!" Seeing the captain of the guard showing a "you're very tactful" expression and preparing to leave, he shouted to Su Tang and the others, "Alright, alright, you two don't have to really come out. You're taking it so seriously! You're really stupid, hahaha!"

Under the amused gaze of the captain of the guard, the hunting team's car sped away.

Su Tang finally breathed a sigh of relief.

She didn't know that inside the city gate, there were two other pairs of eyes watching the car leave.

One person asked in surprise, "Brother Qingguang, you let me follow you for such a long time, and you found the person, but you didn't stop him. What's going on?"

Song Qingguang slowly withdrew his complicated gaze and clenched the bottle in his hand.

"It's okay to leave..."

Keeping them, especially Yang Lifan who could make this kind of medicine, would only make his position in the City Lord's Mansion unstable. Killing them privately would easily give others a handle.

Instead of this, it would be better to let them go.

As long as he can research the medicine that Meng Xiang wants, this matter will not affect him at all!
