The Pyro Company valued Li Shentan very much, and so did Wang Congyang.
However, while they were afraid of Li Shentan, they hated Wang Congyang.
As a matter of fact, Wang Congyang had taken away an entire laboratory's worth of information. It went without saying how valuable this information was. More importantly, he had interrupted the Pyro Company's research in a certain field!
Moreover, Wang Congyang had even accepted the deposit, yet he went back on his word. This was simply against business principles and human nature!
Of course, the Pyro Company was not completely at ease with Wang Congyang back then. They even sent so many people to inform Wang Congyang of the location six hours in advance and requested that he come alone.
They did this because they thought they could kill Wang Congyang even if he played any tricks.
But the reality was that all of their people had been killed!
During this period of time, the Pyro Company had been busy with other matters and did not have time to hunt down Wang Congyang. However, they did not expect Wang Congyang would actually come to the Sacred Mountains on his own and foil their encirclement plan once again.
How could they tolerate this? No one would be able to tolerate it!
In the Pyro Company's opinion, Wang Congyang was too arrogant.
For the entire night, the Pyro Company kept sending more people to surround and intercept Wang Congyang's steam locomotive. The people on the train wondered, "Has the Pyro Company gone crazy? Why do they hate us so much?"
Along the way, they happened to encounter supernatural beings who had fled from other groups. Strictly speaking, they were not considered fleeing. They were just breaking away from the group and looking for a better opportunity to enter the core region.
When everyone saw these supernatural beings on the train, they shouted for them to get on board. After all, there was strength in numbers. Although they did not necessarily know each other, the Pyro Company's enemies were now their friends.
But when these supernatural beings boarded the train, they realized the people chasing after the steam locomotive were much stronger than the people chasing after them!
Someone asked them in puzzlement, "How did y 'all escape so easily? We haven't even shaken off our pursuers yet. Could it be that y' all have some good ideas?"
The supernatural beings were stunned for a moment. "There's nothing we can do about it. They chased us for a while, and then they stopped chasing us."
Everyone could not figure out why the hatred on their side was so great.
To those who were not in the know, this situation might be a little confusing.
In the eyes of Wang Congyang, however, he was equally confused …
Although the Pyro Company had issued a wanted order for him, the Pyro Company did not have the time to deal with him. Furthermore, Wang Congyang was also in the wrong. After all, it was not right of him to run away after taking the deposit. Therefore, he did not say anything about it.
But now, it seemed that there was something wrong with Wang Congyang. Didn't he just take some money? Was there a need to be so angry?
Wang Congyang felt that the Pyro Company might have treated their team differently because of him, or there might be something else he did not know about.
But he didn't say anything. After all, if he said anything, he would become the target of everyone in the team.
Wang Congyang would definitely prefer to die alone or drag the others down with him. There were quite a few pretty girls in this group. Even if he went down there, he would have a companion …
Of course, if he could avoid death, it would be more comfortable to stay alive.
Seeing that the Pyro Company was still chasing them relentlessly, Wang Congyang turned around and asked, "Where do we go now? I'll drive. You guys decide the direction."
At this moment, someone from the Anjing House said, "Head west!"
"Why do we have to go west?" someone wondered.
"It's supposed to be safer to head east. It's said that the team there has a Demon Whisperer overseeing it. But if we head east now, we'll have to cross the Sacred Mountains, so it's too dangerous." The Anjing House member said, "And there's another team heading west. Have you guys heard of White Mask? He's in that team."
Everyone in the train looked at one another. Who had not heard of White Mask? Although he rarely appeared, he caused quite a stir every time he did.
Furthermore, the fact that he rarely appeared made White Mask seem even more mysterious.
The steam locomotive turned around and headed west. However, Wang Congyang was thinking along the way. He kept having a vague feeling of unease. It felt like he should not have come to the Sacred Mountains, much less go west now.
However, he still had a trump card that he had not used yet. That big black cauldron that he could conjure was Wang Congyang's trump card. He felt that his chances of survival would at least be higher than the others.
While Ren Xiaosu and the others were still singing and dancing, everyone heard the whimper of the steam locomotive coming from the mountains. Accompanying it was the sound of metal clanging as the tracks were joined together.
Ren Xiaosu was all too familiar with this sound. Yang Xiaojin also subconsciously looked at Ren Xiaosu. She wondered why Ren Xiaosu had suddenly conjured the steam locomotive.
But when she saw Ren Xiaosu's equally puzzled expression, she immediately realized this was not Ren Xiaosu's steam locomotive but Wang Congyang's!
The steam locomotive headed straight for the flames. Wang Congyang saw a strange scene from afar. "Wait a minute, look at that campsite. Isn't there someone doing the splits?"
"Who the fuck would be in the mood to do the splits at a time like this …. Damn, it really is!"
Everyone on the train was stunned. They could not react in time. Why was the team in front of them not attacked by the Pyro Company? Why were they still in the mood to do the splits?!
Cheng Yu, who was doing the splits, also hurriedly got up from the ground. He was filled with regret.
Cheng Yu had good eyesight, so he could even see the shocked expressions of Wang Congyang and the others in the steam locomotive through the window.
In this talent show, Cheng Yu was the last to perform after much hesitation. Yet it just so happened that he was the one who had embarrassed himself the most!
"Isn't that Wang Congyang's superpower?" Luo Lan wondered, "Why are they here?"
At this moment, another explosion came from behind the steam locomotive. Only then did everyone realize these people had been chased here by the Pyro Company.
However, when the Pyro Company discovered the steam locomotive had joined up with the group in the west, they immediately received the order to retreat and stop pursuing them.
Everyone on the train heaved a sigh of relief. A member of the Anjing House said, "It looks like we made the right choice. There must be someone in this group that the Pyro Company is very wary of. That's why we were surrounded while they weren't."
"Don't say anything else. Hurry up and get off the train," Wang Congyang said.
But as soon as they got off the train, Wang Congyang froze on the spot when he saw Ren Xiaosu standing next to the campfire.
Ren Xiaosu stood up and slowly approached Wang Congyang. Ren Xiaosu had not forgotten how this fellow had led a nest of bandits to attack them.
Now, even if they were enemies, their eyes would burn with hatred!
Enemies were bound to meet!
