When Deng Yuanbo heard Zhu Zheng's words, he couldn't help but narrow his eyes and looked at the so-called "old friend" with an unchanged smile.
"Okay, Zhu Shuai, let's stop reminiscing about the past. You and I both know exactly what our purpose is."
Zhu Zheng also restrained his compassionate look. He pulled out a chair and sat in front of Deng Yuanbo, looking at him quietly for a while.
"Uncle Deng Yuan," Zhu Zheng suddenly asked, "Is the account book real?"
Deng Yuanbo laughed and said, "You really can't help asking this."
"If I say the account book is real, do you believe it?" Deng Yuanbo leaned forward and looked at Zhu Zheng with a sense of oppression.
Zhu Zheng's eyes flickered. Of course he didn't believe it, but he was afraid that Deng Yuanbo, this old fox, was cheating and deliberately teasing him.
Seeing this, Deng Yuanbo sneered: "Whether it's true or not, this is my bargaining chip for survival, isn't it?"
Zhu Zheng's heart sank, knowing that this negotiation would not be easy.
"What do you want?" he asked directly.
Deng Yuanbo smiled, but there was a hint of bitterness in his smile: "Zhu Zheng, Zhu Zheng, it has come to this. Do I still have any choice? Why don't you tell me what you want?"
"Me?" Zhu Zheng leaned back in his chair. "I'm already old, so of course I want to spend my old age in peace."
"So, as long as you hand over the account book, I can ensure that you will be safe and sound for the rest of your life." Zhu Zheng said.
Deng Yuanbo snorted coldly, "Do you think I will still believe you? We are all experienced people. If you break your promise and attack the Deng family, you will definitely be wiped out."
"If you didn't threaten me, there would be no need for me to damage the friendship between our two families for so many years. I can swear." Zhu Zheng curled the corners of his mouth and slowly raised his right hand.
"Swear? Hahaha..." Deng Yuanbo laughed even louder, "How much is your oath worth?"
Zhu Zheng's face turned ugly. He sat up straight and said, "So what do you want?"
Deng Yuanbo was silent for a while, then said, "What have you done with your magical powers?"
Zhu Zheng hesitated for a moment. The other party must have guessed that he had taken action against Deng Shentong, so he had the confidence to snatch the Deng family account book.
But Deng Yuanbo probably didn't know whether Deng Shentong was dead or alive.
Otherwise, he would not have handed over the accounts so readily to protect the Deng family's safety.
He captured Deng Yuanbo just to threaten Deng Shentong.
But before that, he had to confirm whether Deng Yuanbo’s greatest value at present - the Deng family account book - was real.
"This is not your concern." Zhu Zheng said calmly: "If he is here, we can't continue the negotiations."
"I want to see him." Deng Yuanbo insisted.
There was a sly look in Zhu Zheng's eyes. He knew that Deng Yuanbo wanted to see Deng Shentong just to make sure he was safe.
"You can see him, but you must tell me the whereabouts of the account book first." Zhu Zheng refused to give in.
The two were in a stalemate and the atmosphere was extremely tense.
In the end, Deng Yuanbo made a concession, and from the look on his face, it seemed that he decided to trust Zhu Zheng once.
"The account book is in the secret compartment of my study. I will ask the butler to send you the real account book." Deng Yuanbo said.
Zhu Zheng immediately called someone to get the account book. After confirming that it was correct, he breathed a sigh of relief and stood up from his chair.
"I have done what I promised you. When can I meet him?" Deng Yuanbo stared at Zhu Zheng and asked.
Zhu Zheng walked to the door, looked back at Deng Yuanbo, and said meaningfully: "Don't worry, you will see him soon."
After saying that, he left the interrogation room and closed the door.
Zhu Zheng took out his communicator and called Li Lingxue: "Where are Zhu Yu's coordinates?"
……
On the wasteland covered with falling snow, several figures were chasing and fighting each other.
It was not easy for Zhu Yu to escape. Even if she used her supernatural powers to temporarily hold the two of them back, it would not be long before the black-haired man with the power of space would come up to her with Deng Shentong like a shadow.
She was extremely impatient. If she was strong enough to crush him, she would definitely kill him and take away his superpowers!
But in the current situation, the two of them worked together seamlessly, and with Deng Shentong's supernatural powers constantly interfering, it was difficult for her to cause substantial harm to any of them.
The girl was galloping across the wilderness, with Zhang Yi and Deng Shentong chasing her closely.
Her heart was filled with anger and resentment. It was obvious that her strength far exceeded that of these two people, but she could not escape easily because of their collaboration.
"Damn it!" Zhu Yu cursed in a low voice. She knew that this was not a solution and she had to get rid of them as soon as possible.
She suddenly stopped and waved her hands. A huge ice wall instantly rose from the ground, blocking the way of Zhang Yi and Deng Shentong.
"Fluidize!"
Zhu Yu let out a low roar, and his body instantly turned into a pool of liquid and slid out from the gap in the ice wall.
Upon seeing this, Zhang Yi immediately launched the "Divine Realm Purification" in an attempt to compress the space again and force Zhu Yu to show up.
However, Zhu Yu was well prepared. Her body moved quickly in liquid state, and then she used her telekinesis to control her body in an instant to avoid the attack range of Shenyu Jingjie.
"This is not a solution." Zhang Yi said to Deng Shentong, "If she is determined to escape, it will be difficult for us to stop her."
Deng Shentong nodded. He understood that although Zhu Yu's ability was powerful, it also had its limitations.
"Her special ability requires a lot of energy. As long as we continue to consume her physical strength, she will reveal a flaw sooner or later." Deng Shentong analyzed.
Zhang Yi nodded. He concentrated his mind again, controlling the power of the void, preparing to launch the next attack.
At the same time, Deng Shentong also aimed at Zhu Yu's position, preparing to give her a fatal blow when Zhu Yu appeared.
Zhu Yu observed the two people's actions from a distance, thinking quickly of countermeasures in his mind.
She knew that she had to find a breakthrough, otherwise it would be difficult to get rid of these two people.
Suddenly, she had an idea and thought of a solution.
"Since you want my life so much, I will give you a chance." Zhu Yu sneered in his heart.
She suddenly accelerated and rushed towards Zhang Yi and Deng Shentong.
Seeing this, Zhang Yi and Deng Shentong immediately prepared for battle.
However, the moment Zhu Yu approached them, she suddenly changed direction and rushed in another direction.
"Want to run?" Zhang Yi snorted coldly. He immediately launched the "Divine Realm Purification" in an attempt to block Zhu Yu's way.
However, Zhu Yu seemed to have acquired some kind of enhanced supernatural power, and her speed was incredibly fast. She narrowly avoided the attack range of Shenyu Jingjie and continued to flee into the distance.
Seeing this, Deng Shentong immediately chased after him.
He knew that although Zhu Yu was fast, she was also very physically exhausted. As long as they kept chasing her, they would find an opportunity sooner or later.
Zhang Yi followed closely behind, constantly mobilizing the power of the void to try to interfere with Zhu Yu's actions.
Zhu Yu was running in front, calculating the distance and time in her mind. She knew that she had to find a suitable opportunity to counterattack the two men.
Suddenly, she saw a dense forest ahead and was delighted.
"It's here!" Zhu Yu accelerated suddenly, ready to rush into the dense forest.
Zhang Yi and Deng Shentong chased to the edge of the dense forest, and their hearts tightened when they saw Zhu Yu's movements.
"What should we do?" Zhang Yi asked.
Deng Shentong pondered for a moment and said, "She wants to use the terrain to her advantage to escape. It's easy. Take out some cannons and heat her up."
Zhang Yi raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Good idea!"
After saying that, he directly opened dozens of dimensional gates in the air and extended countless black gun muzzles.
This is the essence of human civilization, enough to raze this dense forest to the ground in an instant!
Zhuyu shuttled through the dense forest, its figure as elusive as a ghost.
She knew that Zhang Yi and Deng Shentong would not give up easily, and she had to use this complex terrain to delay time and find the most suitable opportunity.
Zhang Yi's spatial ability and Deng Shentong's Great Sumeru Illusion made it difficult for her to find any flaws, and her physical strength was constantly being consumed, and sooner or later she would reveal a flaw.
"I must think of a way. Either I can kill him with one blow, or I can run as far away as possible. Otherwise, it will be disadvantageous for me to continue like this." Zhu Yu thought to himself.
Just then, she suddenly heard a slight vibration coming from the distance, as if some huge force was approaching.
"What's going on?" Zhu Yu's heart tightened. She immediately stopped and looked around vigilantly.
The vibration sound was getting closer and closer, the ground began to tremble slightly, and the branches and leaves of the trees were shaking constantly.
Suddenly, dazzling rays of light streaked across the sky and shot straight into the horizon. Immediately afterwards, a loud bang was heard and the ground shook violently, as if it had been hit by some huge force.
Zhu Yu looked up and saw that the sky in the distance was illuminated by a blazing light. The light was like the falling sun, emitting a heart-pounding heat.
"Not good!" Zhu Yu was shocked and she immediately realized what had happened.
How could Deng Shentong carry heavy weapons?
Countless burning cannons kept falling. Zhang Yi clapped his hands and said, "Then we will wait here. I don't believe she can hide forever."
The two of them waited outside the dense forest that had turned into a sea of fire, waiting for Zhu Yu to appear.
Zhu Yu didn't let them wait too long.
A slender figure suddenly rushed out of the sea of fire!
In an instant, she appeared behind Zhang Yi and Deng Shentong, and with a wave of her hands, a huge ice cone instantly pierced towards Zhang Yi.
Zhang Yi reacted extremely quickly. He quickly dodged the ice cone by turning sideways, but Zhu Yu's attack followed.
"Zhang Yi!"
Upon seeing this, Deng Shentong immediately activated his special powers, and a silver light instantly enveloped the entire world.
Zhu Yu didn't have time to close his eyes and was briefly controlled by the Great Sumeru Illusion for a moment.
"It's now!"
With Deng Shentong's clear shout, the space gate behind Zhang Yi quickly opened, and countless black tentacles directly bound Zhu Yu's movement space at a very close distance!
"boom"!
With a crisp gunshot, Deng Shentong stood there holding the still smoking silver gun.
Zhu Yu quickly destroyed the tentacles and avoided vital parts, but was hit by the bullet in the shoulder.
She sneered and said sarcastically: "If it's just this level..."
However, the next second, the girl's eyes suddenly widened!
She felt a sharp pain in her shoulder where the bullet had hit her, and then it seemed as if all the life force in her body was rapidly draining away!
Zhu Yu looked down at his shoulder in disbelief. The wound that was originally just grazed by the bullet now seemed to be corroded by some poison. The wound quickly turned black and spread to the surrounding area.
"This... what is this?" Zhu Yu's voice trembled slightly. She tried to mobilize the supernatural powers in her body to repair the wound, but found that her strength was rapidly draining away.
Soon, she was speechless and her eyes were blinded by blood.
Because at this moment, blood was constantly gushing out of her seven orifices!
