Chapter 1250 Two People Who Don't Get Along
Faced with conflicting accounts from Sun Wukong and Cangbai, Lu Su would naturally lean more towards Sun Wukong.
Lu Su looked at the pale and gloomy figure beside him and sighed heavily, saying, "Sun Wukong is just too soft-hearted."
"However, the weapon was indeed lost because of Sun Wukong. It was indeed his fault that he messed up our original plan. I'm really sorry."
Yin Youyou felt aggrieved that Sun Wukong had given up the weapon for nothing.
However, considering that the other party was trying to save Pale, she didn't have much of an opinion or view on it.
Although Pale knew in his heart that Sun Wukong was definitely lying, he could only remain silent because he had no evidence.
Yin Youyou glanced at the silent, pale man, then spoke his mind:
"Since Chairman Lu has said so, we are not petty people, let's just let this matter go."
"So, what we need to do next is to find other ways to remove the curse from us."
No matter how powerful the weapon was, in Yin Youyou's view, the most important thing was the curse on her body.
Although she has now avoided being cursed and killed thanks to Sun Wukong.
But with the deaths of her other companions still fresh in her mind, she said it was impossible not to worry.
As she said this, she glanced at Pale; in truth, she and Pale were already lucky enough.
Fortunately, Sun Wukong was kind enough to temporarily shield them from the effects of the curse. Not to mention, Chairman Lu also provided them with a place to rest temporarily.
However, he could only say these things to Cang Bai in private, asking Cang Bai not to be too harsh on Sun Wukong and the others.
Yin Youyou was still thinking about how to find an opportunity to tell Cang Bai what was on her mind.
Meanwhile, Pale urged Sun Wukong and Lu Su to start the tracking as soon as possible.
"...This is what I think, whether it's to find out what those people's purpose is, or to lift the curse on us."
"We must expose them all and take back their weapons, so let's act now!"
When Pao Bai said this, he was so confident that he didn't consider what would happen if Sun Wukong and the others refused.
Sun Wukong immediately poured a bucket of cold water on the situation.
"Find those people? That sounds simple, but we don't have a single clue right now. Tell me, how are we supposed to track them down?"
Sun Wukong narrowed his eyes, staring intently at Cang Bai, wanting to see what insightful opinions Cang Bai had.
He didn't actually mean to compete with Pale.
Pale's attitude was so intriguing that Sun Wukong suspected he might have some hidden tricks up his sleeve.
Otherwise, where does this guy's confidence come from?
His deliberately nitpicking words were simply to force Pale to use his trump card as soon as possible.
As it turns out, Sun Wukong's words were quite effective.
Although he knew perfectly well that Sun Wukong's words were intentional, Cang Bai still took the opportunity to reveal his own plans.
Pale spoke softly, "...When that masked man was holding me hostage, I secretly placed a tracking signal on him. If we follow the tracking signal, we might be able to find his whereabouts."
Upon hearing this, Yin Youyou immediately perked up. "A tracking signal is great! With this, finding the weapon again will be much easier!"
This is a perfect example of how things can turn around and then suddenly improve.
She was worried that if she couldn't find the weapon, how would she break the curse?
Thankfully, the pale-faced cleverness gave them new hope.
Upon hearing this, Sun Wukong raised an eyebrow but did not continue to contradict him.
Sun Wukong looked at Cang Bai with a smile: "This is a good thing! In that case, I'll trouble you to track that tracking signal. If you can successfully track those people, it will save us a lot of trouble."
This is completely different from the Sun Wukong who was always looking for trouble before.
Yin Youyou was also speechless at Sun Wukong's change of expression.
However, it was already quite good that the two of them didn't start arguing; she didn't expect anything else.
Lu Su, who was standing nearby, was also delighted with this.
After all, although he didn't know exactly what tricks Sun Wukong was playing, he was very clear about the fact that he could instantly engage in a team fight.
Soon, he had his men bring over a brand new, unopened main unit, and had Pale track the signal.
Sitting in front of the main unit, Pale was completely focused, concentrating all his attention on tracking the signal, ignoring even the people around him who came over to observe.
Lu Su, who wasn't particularly good at this, felt a bit sleepy after watching for a while.
He went straight back to his desk to handle the daily affairs of the Third Guild.
Yin Youyou and Sun Wukong kept their attention focused on the tracking signal displayed on the main unit.
Not so much as Sun Wukong had expected, this signal was not so easy to track.
In the end, the signal disappeared completely, as if it had never existed, and Pale was unable to trace where the signal's owner had gone.
"Failed. Looks like he detected my signal. Damn it, so close!" He let out a heavy sigh, his pale face staring at the now-silent main unit panel, his eyes filled with deep resentment.
Upon hearing this, Yin Youyou's disappointment was palpable.
She looked sadly at Pale, whose mood was clearly not good.
Although she knew she shouldn't take her anger out on Pale, she couldn't help but feel resentment towards Pale's uselessness when her hopes were dashed.
Sun Wukong, standing beside him, remained as calm as ever: "Ah, they failed... But then again, those people didn't seem like simple characters, so their failure isn't hard to understand."
This result was, in a sense, expected.
Sun Wukong would be surprised if the Pale Needle could track down the signal.
Sun Wukong calmly remarked, "It seems we need to reassess the level of that group. They are quite strong, and my defeat seems reasonable."
"Are you deliberately mocking us?" Pale suddenly questioned Sun Wukong. "Or do you think Yin Youyou and I are holding you back?"
Yin Youyou, who was already in a bad mood, felt even more uncomfortable after hearing Cangbai's words.
Sun Wukong shrugged: "I didn't mean that. I was just remarking that our opponent is not an easy opponent to deal with."
Pale was not willing to let Sun Wukong off so easily, and continued to provoke him: "But your behavior from beginning to end has been very strange, as if you are not in a position to claim the weapon."
"I'm curious, do you really not care, or do you have other plans in mind?"
