Chapter 1349: Chapter 1349: Concealment

According to Davis, when Zhang Ya’Er, DS, and Johnson set fire at the gambling arena and left Tianya Haijiao City, they were received by people from the Wang Family.

Later, after returning to the Celestial Dragon Continent, Zhang Ya’Er separated from DS and Johnson and was taken to another place by those people.

This information was painstakingly uncovered by Davis, and now he wants to know where Zhang Ya’Er went during that time, who she met, and what she did.

Davis said, "My intuition tells me that this matter is crucial, at least it won’t have us wandering aimlessly anymore."

After listening, Lin Tian leaned on the chair in silence. He didn’t know about this either. Did Zhang Ya’Er deliberately conceal it? It’s quite possible.

Another question sprang to Lin Tian’s mind: Is it necessary for me to know?

The answer was definitely yes! It’s necessary!

Thinking of this, Lin Tian looked up and gave Wu Yong a glance, subtly suggesting, "Go and check how Zhang Ya’Er is doing."

Wu Yong nodded lightly and then left.

Watching Wu Yong’s departing figure, Davis asked, "Mr. Lin, is your feud with the Wang Group very deep?"

Lin Tian chuckled, crossed his legs, and said, "Do I need to repeat it? I suppose you’ve already investigated it thoroughly, haven’t you?"

"In that case, why don’t we join forces?" Davis asked.

"Join forces?" Lin Tian showed no expression, pondering whether he needed this ally.

Honestly, whether he has Davis and his people doesn’t affect Lin Tian. Because he has other families as allies, Davis is practically dispensable.

But for Davis, this ally is of utmost importance. In Kanyue City, they are like drifting duckweed; having a strong ally means having confidence, at least preventing situations like before. The feeling of bowing your head under someone’s roof is really unpleasant.

"If we become allies, what benefit would I gain?" Lin Tian smirked at Davis, "Whatever you have, I already have, and what you don’t have, I also have."

This question truly stumped Davis, what could he offer?

Seemingly nothing.

Just as Davis was caught in this awkward moment, Wu Yong returned and nodded towards Lin Tian, "Zhang Ya’Er’s condition is good."

Lin Tian didn’t give Davis a chance to think further, he stood up and said, "Let’s go."

Davis didn’t want to continue the embarrassing question either.

...

Pushing open Zhang Ya’Er’s hospital room door, Lin Tian was the first to enter.

Inside the room, besides Zhang Ya’Er lying on the bed, Li was reclining on a nearby sofa, eyes closed, lightly snoring, asleep.

Zhang Ya’Er immediately put a finger to her lips, gesturing to keep quiet, and whispered, "He hasn’t slept well all night, he just fell asleep, let him sleep a little longer."

Lin Tian instantly understood; this silly boy must be feeling too guilty, that’s why he couldn’t sleep all night. Now that everyone is awake, and everyone is in a similar state, he’s tired too.

Lin Tian initially thought of waking him up and asking him to sleep where there’s a bed since there was still business to discuss here. But who knew this boy was a light sleeper, waking up in a daze before anyone could call him. Seeing Davis at the door, he understood everything.

Lin Tian walked up and patted Li’s shoulder, saying, "Go back to sleep. I’ve already asked Wu Yong to handle everyone’s discharge paperwork. There’s nothing major."

Li nodded without refusal.

Once Li left the room, Lin Tian and Davis sat on the sofa, while Wu Yong and the other two people from Silver Continent wisely stepped out.

Zhang Ya’Er had known days ago that people from the gambling arena had found her, so seeing Davis, she was mentally prepared, with no sign of panic on her face.

"Amy, we meet again," Davis said a greeting, then sighed, "It’s not easy to see you."

It was indeed difficult, from chasing all the way from the Tianya Haijiao City across the ocean to Kanyue City, through half a year of investigation. If the gambling arena hadn’t been exposed, the time might have been even longer. Just moments ago, Davis was blocked by Lin Tian at the door and was put in a tough spot.

Davis even thought that if he wrote his experiences into an autobiography, it would surely touch many people. Because—it was really not easy!

Amy is the name Zhang Ya’Er used at the gambling arena in Tianya Haijiao City. Now, facing old acquaintances, Zhang Ya’Er couldn’t bring herself to smile; she truly didn’t want to be dragged into that matter again.

"Hello, Mr. Davis." Zhang Ya’Er gave a bitter smile and said, "I know why you’re here, so just ask whatever you want to ask."

Davis wasn’t shy, he and Zhang Ya’Er are only acquaintances, not much nostalgia to exchange, so he straightforwardly said, "I want to know everything you did at the gambling arena and what happened after leaving it."

Zhang Ya’Er instinctively glanced at Lin Tian, then nodded.

She had already explained these things to Lin Tian long ago. However, after discussing with Lin Tian, some things can’t be straightforwardly mentioned, so she skimmed over the details lightly.

After hearing it, Davis’s expression didn’t change at all. To him, these things were almost the same as what DS described.

"And after returning to the Celestial Dragon Continent?" Davis asked again.

"I was directly arranged to go to the gambling arena and stayed there for half a year." Zhang Ya’Er said with a calm demeanor.

"You’re lying!" Davis suddenly raised his voice, widening his eyes: "You separated from DS in-between and were taken to another place!"

At this point, Davis stopped, observing Zhang Ya’Er’s expression.

Zhang Ya’Er was slightly stunned, her mouth agape, then she broke into a bitter smile, "I didn’t expect you could track this down too."

Lin Tian crossed his arms, smilingly watching Zhang Ya’Er, he also wanted to know what else this woman was hiding. Maybe, even during the last conversation in Hei Jin, she didn’t tell the truth.

Lin Tian suddenly wondered whether sending this jockey to Hei Jin was a good thing or a bad thing.

"There’s no wall without a crack," Davis said seriously, but his grasp of Celestial Dragon Continent idioms left much to be desired.

Zhang Ya’Er directly ignored their expressions and began, "Indeed, in-between I left and was taken to an old house."

"Old house?" Lin Tian muttered.

"Yes, an old-style building in the Celestial Dragon Continent, it looks like it’s over a hundred years old. It’s very large, like a palace. It’s not far east from the palace."

Lin Tian instantly understood she was referring to the ancestral home of the Ancient Martial the Wang Family.

Immediately, he became even more curious about why she was taken there. It looked like the matters Zhang Ya’Er kept hidden were quite significant!

Davis was even more anxious than Lin Tian, urging, "What did you do there?"

Zhang Ya’Er burst into a laugh, "I saw the Luban lock."
