Chapter 146 Zhu Meng Arrives
Meeting room in Hangzhou.
Zhu Meng, who was originally waiting for good news from his subordinates, could not help but glare with anger after receiving the news. A high-level third-level mage, with a bunch of mid-level mages, actually failed.
He stood up suddenly, slammed his palm on the conference table, looked at the chief judge Tang Zhong and cursed: "Now the plague is so serious, you actually secretly sent a high-level mage to protect Tang Yue, do you really want to see Hangzhou littered with corpses?"
Tang Zhong was also a little puzzled. He didn't ask anyone to secretly protect Tang Yue. Where did this high-level wizard that Zhu Meng mentioned come from? Could he be Tang Yue's friend?
Seeing that Tang Zhong didn't say anything, Zhu Meng couldn't help but snorted coldly, "Since you don't want to say it, then I have no choice but to do it myself?"
Luo Mian, who was standing by, of course strongly agreed when he heard this. "The situation is so critical now, we really need to resolve this disaster as soon as possible. I will go with you."
Of course he was aware of the black snake's strength. If he waited for it to safely pass through the molting period, all his plans would come to nothing, and he might even be in deep danger. He needed to resolve it before that.
Zhu Meng left the conference table and said harshly, "You have an unshirkable responsibility in this matter with Tang Zhong. This matter is not over yet."
Tang Zhong watched the two leave in silence. Now that the plague had become such a big issue, he was wavering in his heart as to whether he should let Tang Yue bring the black snake back.
.
.
On the other side, Lu Xuan had already brought Tang Yue to a flat area far outside Bai Town and landed. He did not continue to fly upwards.
Lu Xuan took out his cell phone from his trouser pocket and was about to ask Leng Qing about the progress of the investigation when he saw the message from Leng Qing.
At this time, two figures appeared in the sky. They were Zhu Meng and Luo Mian, who came to capture the black snake.
After seeing the newcomers, Tang Yue quickly reminded Lu Xuan, "Why are Zhu Meng and Luo Mian still here? Lu Xuan, don't get into a conflict with them. Let me go with them directly."
Two super-class mages came personally to arrest her, so she and Lu Xuan had no chance to resist at all.
Lu Xuan's eyes were very calm. Zhu Meng came here in person. He had considered this before.
He glanced at the old man with a goatee next to Zhu Meng. This man was probably Luo Mian, who actually followed him here.
Could it be that after learning that Black Snake was fine, he became restless?
Zhu Meng looked at Lu Xuan and Tang Yue below and said coldly, "Tang Yue, quickly hand over the black snake. You don't know how serious a mistake you have made.
I don’t know how many people are suffering from the plague right now. If I could, I would really like to take you to the quarantine area to see what kind of hell it is.”
Tang Yue directly refuted: "The plague has nothing to do with the black snake, it's the blood..."
Before Tang Yue could finish her words, Luo Mian interrupted her and said, "As a member of the Totem lineage, your words are not trustworthy at all. I will arrest you and detain you, and then ask you to tell me the whereabouts of the black snake."
Lu Xuan couldn't help but shook his head. It seemed that the old man was anxious and wanted to cut the Gordian knot and end this matter hastily.
He said calmly: "Tang Yue hasn't said anything yet, she just stated her guess. Why are you so anxious? Why are you so sensitive?"
Now that Leng Qing has investigated the matter clearly, he has just sent the specific location to Leng Qing. He believes it won't take long for him to get here.
He didn't have to do much, just wait for Leng Qing and the others to come. The real owners were here, so he could solve all the problems at once.
Luo Mian obviously knew that he had acted a little anxious just now, but he didn't realize that Tang Yue seemed to know that there was something wrong with the blood potion, which was extremely disadvantageous to him. However, he was an experienced man, and said calmly: "The plague is a matter of life and death, and I am just concerned about it. You, Tang Yue's accomplice, should stop slandering me."
Lu Xuan is now sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai, the overall situation has been decided. Luo Mian is just trying to make a desperate struggle, but he can't change the situation.
He said to Zhu Meng: "Councilor Zhu Meng, if the Black Snake wanted to harm people, the number of people affected would not be as small as it is now."
He just couldn't understand this matter. Something seemed wrong everywhere. Why did everyone think that the black snake was the remedy to cure the plague?
Zhu Meng, who had a bad temper, couldn't help but calm down after hearing this and asked, "Are you saying that someone else caused the plague and put the blame on Xuan Snake?"
Lu Xuan glanced at Luo Mian with a smile on his face, and said meaningfully: "Why not think about who will gain the most from the death of the black snake? You should know this better than me, right?"
Zhu Meng did not reply, his face suddenly darkened. He glanced at Luo Mian beside him without leaving a trace.
Once Xuanshe falls, Tang Zhong, as a member of the Totem Party, will definitely be implicated. The most likely person to take the position is definitely Luo Mian, which is a reasonable motive.
Luo Mianke has always been the guardian of the Black Snake, so it is no wonder that he joined his camp all of a sudden, became a staunch supporter of eradicating the Black Snake, and tried his best to make this happen.
"All this is just your talk. Do you have any evidence?"
Lu Xuan's face was full of relief, and he said casually: "Someone has already investigated the source, and the plague can be cured. They are on their way here, you just need to wait for a while."
However, after saying this, he focused his attention on Luo Mian, to prevent the other party from making desperate moves.
"Okay, I'll give you some time. I hope you can really find a way to solve the plague. Otherwise, both you and Tang Yue will be severely punished."
Although Zhu Meng still remains skeptical about this matter, the number of people infected with the plague in the city has now reached a very scary number. He really hopes there is a way to solve the plague.
"How can Zhu Meng be so indecisive at this time? This guy obviously wants to sow discord between us."
Seeing Zhu Meng agreed, Luo Mian on the side suddenly became anxious. Seeing Lu Xuan's fearless look, he could not care less.
He decided to strike first and eliminate the other party. If the other party really knew something, he would be finished.
He completed the construction of the star in an instant, and a huge semi-void ghost immediately appeared behind Lu Xuan on the ground.
Lu Xuan, who was always on guard, turned into a shadow and flashed to the side.
Seeing that Lu Xuan easily avoided the attack, Luo Mian immediately wanted to cast magic again to completely kill Lu Xuan.
"Luo Mian, do you know what you are doing?" Zhu Meng couldn't help but shout angrily when he saw this scene.
Then, several lightning bolts as big as buckets were released from his hands and rushed directly towards Luo Mian, stopping Luo Mian's next move.
Luo Mian dodged the lightning attack. He had a gloomy face and did not reply. Instead, he looked at Lu Xuan below.
