On the other side, sensing the puzzled gazes of the two, Ye Cangtian slowly took out his mobile phone and dialed a strange number.
However, the very next moment, in another corner of Bright City, a mobile phone rang.
The owner of this mobile phone was Hasal of the Temple of Light.
Ye Cangtian had originally planned to contact Hasal after settling in to find out Dames' whereabouts.
But now that he had encountered this situation, he had no choice but to do it in advance.
When Hasal saw the incoming call on his phone, his heart suddenly tightened. He quickly answered the call and roared.
"Ye Cangtian, you son of a bitch, do you keep your word or not!"
Ye Cangtian had originally promised him that as long as he helped Ye Cangtian complete one task, he would no longer bother him.
But he had been bothered by Ye Cangtian again and again, and each time he was forced to do things, which truly made Hasal unbearable.
"Heh heh, such a big temper!"
"Do you want me to cool you down?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Cangtian's face showed a playful smile.
"Stop bullshitting me. I'm telling you, I won't do anything for you anymore!"
"At worst, I'll confess my guilt to His Holiness the Pope!"
Hasal roared. He believed that given his years of service to the Temple of Light, he would surely receive the Pope's forgiveness.
Moreover, he was the one who had been tricked.
"Hasal, you must know that you have no right to say no in front of me!"
"Otherwise, if I'm unhappy, I might just kill you directly!"
Ye Cangtian heard this and was not angry, his eyes showing a faint smile.
Hasal shouted in exasperation, "Damn it! Ye Cangtian, come if you dare!"
"Heh heh, dare you tell me where you are?"
When Hasal heard this, his face immediately showed a sarcastic smile, and he said, "I'm in Bright City, in the lake-view villa next to the Holy Lake. Come if you dare! Dudu Dudu..."
Hasal stated the address and then directly hung up the phone.
In his opinion, Ye Cangtian was still on the other side of the ocean in China, so it wouldn't matter even if he told him the address.
Besides, this was Bright City, with the Pope presiding. He didn't believe Ye Cangtian would dare to come.
On the other side, Ye Cangtian hung up the phone and glanced at Nancy and the other two. Before he could speak, he saw that their expressions were a bit strange.
Then, Nancy stepped forward and asked, "You still have contact with Hasal?"
Nancy had also heard the conversation just now, and when she heard Hasal's name, she was stunned.
Since they could communicate by phone, their relationship was obviously unusual.
As for Ye Cangtian, Nancy knew him very well, so their conversation could only mean one thing.
That was that Hasal had also betrayed the Temple of Light.
Because of this, Nancy was extremely shocked. In her eyes, Hasal was a veteran Cardinal who was extremely loyal to the Temple of Light. How could he betray them?
Heh heh.
Seeing Nancy's wide eyes, Ye Cangtian guessed her thoughts quite accurately.
So he quickly shook his head and said, "It's not what you think, but it's close. I just have a small handle on Hasal, forcing him to do some things..."
Nancy subconsciously asked, "What handle?"
When Ye Cangtian heard this, he rolled his eyes at Nancy and said irritably, "It's a long story. If I told you, it would be dark before we finished. So I think we should go to the Holy Lake first."
Hearing this, Nancy finally suppressed her curiosity and led the two towards the Holy Lake. m..oΓg
...
Holy Lake, Bright City.
The Holy Lake was located at the foot of Bright Mountain. The lake water was very clear, and the surrounding scenery was exceptionally beautiful.
On the side closest to Bright Mountain, there were many residential areas along the lake.
Those who could live here were usually people from the Temple of Light. After all, the Temple of Light was on Bright Mountain, and their living here was convenient for the Temple of Light to mobilize them.
And within this residential area, there was a villa, facing the lake and backed by the mountain, which was an excellent place to admire the scenery. This was Hasal's home.
At this moment, in his room, Hasal was sipping red wine and watching an passionate movie, feeling a surge of excitement.
Perhaps due to the anesthetic effect of alcohol, or perhaps because the fighting scenes on television were too intense, he didn't even hear the sound of approaching footsteps.
"Heh heh, this movie is quite passionate? It's just a bit fake, how can fighting not draw blood!"
"This is good enough. Movies nowadays are all like this, mainly relying on coolness and special effects, not real fighting! Just watch it..."
At some point, a voice came. Hasal instinctively replied.
But before he could finish, he realized something was wrong. This voice was not from his household guards.
The next moment, Hasal turned around abruptly and almost screamed. There stood two unfamiliar men and one woman behind him.
"Who exactly are you!"
Hasal's face turned cold, and he began to question them.
But in his mind, he had already guessed something. People from the Temple of Light would never dare to break into his room without prior notification.
So the other party was likely sent by Ye Cangtian.
After all, Ye Cangtian had called him just now, and he had revealed his address to him. Since Ye Cangtian could not come in person, he had likely arranged for someone to come.
"Heh heh, Hasal, can't you even recognize my voice?"
Ye Cangtian glanced over and said with a sly smile.
"Ye... Ye Cangtian!"
With those words, the murderous intent that had just arisen in Hasal's heart instantly vanished.
He had intended to kill the three people in front of him as a lesson for Ye Cangtian.
But now, hearing the other party's voice again, he immediately recognized it. This was indeed Ye Cangtian's voice, but the other party had disguised himself.
Hasal was extremely wary of Ye Cangtian!
Although he had also reached the quasi-Heaven level cultivation, it was only the first level.
As for Ye Cangtian, he had already killed many quasi-Heaven level experts in the inner temple of the Temple of Light. It could be said that he had almost no chance of winning against him.
The next moment, Hasal forced himself to calm down. Since he couldn't escape, he had to face it.
So, he said, "Ye Cangtian, I have fulfilled my promise to you, and I have not participated in any actions related to China. Why are you still holding onto me?"
"As for the promise, you have fulfilled it!"
Ye Cangtian glanced at him indifferently and continued, "But did you really not participate in any actions in China? I advise you to think carefully. Wasn't it you who was responsible for transmitting information between the Temple of Light and China?"
Regarding this matter, Viper had already investigated Hasal's identity when intercepting the information, so Ye Cangtian already knew about it.
This...
With that sentence, Hasal's face instantly turned red, and he argued, "I only transmitted information, I didn't cause any losses to China!"
"You're right, that's why you're still alive."
Ye Cangtian was too lazy to argue with him and directly changed the subject, saying, "Alright, you should know why we came here, right?"
As soon as he said this, Hasal's attention was drawn, and his eyes began to turn.
After a moment, he looked at Ye Cangtian and said, "You are here for Dames and want to avenge Xu Zhenguo, right?"
This was not difficult for Hasal to guess.
After all, Xu Zhenguo was the head of the Dragon Group, a Chinese power, and Ye Cangtian was not only Chinese but also a former member of the Dragon Group and Xu Zhenguo's subordinate.
Therefore, avenging him was only natural.
"Smart."
Ye Cangtian clapped his hands and said with a smile, "Since you've guessed it, tell me, are you going to help or not?"
"Hmph!"
With that sentence, Hasal snorted coldly. He glared at Ye Cangtian and said, "Ye Cangtian, what makes you think I will help you! Don't you just have a handle on me?"
After a pause, Hasal continued, "I just told you, at worst, I'll confess everything to His Holiness the Pope. You can forget about it!"
