Zhou Shu had rarely seen Mu Zhixing so serious. He narrowed his eyes and looked at him for a while. After a moment of silence, he said, “I’ll believe you for now. Even if you don’t say it now, I’ll find out sooner or later.”

Mu Zhixing shrugged. “If you are able to find out, that’s fine. Anyway, I’m not the one who said it.”

Mu Zhixing said, “King Zhou, if you’re really capable, you can ask Wu Gang.” He was doing this on purpose.

Wu Gang had gone crazy. He didn’t even know who he was. It would be strange if Zhou Shu could find out anything from him. Zhou Shu looked at Wu Gang, seemingly tempted.

Mu Zhixing was speechless.

In the past, he couldn’t tell that Zhou Shu was actually so curious. Did he really plan to ask Wu Gang?

Of course, Zhou Shu wasn’t planning to ask Wu Gang. He had asked Wu Gang before, but Wu Gang didn’t say anything.

If he asked again, the outcome would probably be the same.

But Zhou Shu didn’t necessarily have to ask if he wanted to know something.

He could find out using the Zhuang Zhou Butterfly Dream Technique.

Zhou Shu hesitated for a moment but didn’t take action in the end.

Wu Gang wasn’t an ordinary person. There was still a chance that he would fail to use the Zhuang Zhou Butterfly Dream Technique on him.

Back then, Zhou Shu had used the Zhuang Zhou Butterfly Dream Technique on Ji Lutian. But in the end, he had failed.

He estimated that the chances of him failing to use it on Wu Gang were more than 60%.

Even if he succeeded, a person like Wu Gang was involved in too many things.

It might not be a good thing to dream about him rashly.

He was so crazy. Who knew what he had experienced?

Zhou Shut s injuries had yet to recover, and his strength had yet to recover fully. It was better to be careful.

“King Zhou, let’s talk about how much I have to pay for you to lend me the Book of Life and Death.” Mu Zhixing interrupted Zhou Shu’s thoughts.

“I don’t need to say more about the value of the Book of Life and Death,” Zhou Shu said indifferently. “How about this? I want to repair a divine weapon and still need some forging materials. As long as you help me find all the forging materials, I’ll lend you the Book of Life and Death.”

“King Zhou, why don’t you give me a number? I don’t know how much you need.” Mu Zhixing wasn’t a fool. He immediately saw through Zhou Shut s trap.

I don’t know how you can repair divine weapons. If you tell me that you haven’t repaired it even though you already have, will you continue to ask me to help you find forging materials?

The corners of Zhou Shu’s mouth curled up slightly. Mu Zhixing was indeed much smarter than the Dong family.

“You don’t understand forging. It’s very troublesome to repair a divine weapon. Even I can’t calculate how many forging materials I need in advance,” Zhou Shu said. “I can understand that you have reservations, but you should believe me.

I won’t deliberately deceive you.”

Mu Zhixing pursed his lips inwardly. Believe you? It’s because I believe you that we have to make things clear from the start. Otherwise, ifI really get tricked by you, how can I reason with you?

In terms of acting skills, Mu Zhixing was not weak either. He smiled and said, “That’s not what I meant. I just want us to know what to do. You have to give me a list of what forging materials you need.”

Mu Zhixing smiled very sincerely.

“No problem,” Zhou Shu said. “I’ll give you a list of the forging materials I need later. Find them according to their category. The more, the better.” Mu Zhixing:

What’s the difference? Aren’ t you just asking for as many as possible?

“Forget it,” Mu Zhixing said helplessly. “I’ll help you, but King Zhou, I hope you won’t play me.”

“Don’t worry. I’ve always been fair,” Zhou Shu said with a smile. Seeing Mu Zhixing change his appearance and leave the Dong family’s headquarters, Cao Yue opened his mouth but hesitated.

Zhou Shu returned to the room and looked at Cao Yue. “Do you want to ask who he is?”

Cao Yue nodded in embarrassment.

“He’s not a good person,” Zhou Shu said. “When you see him in the future, stay away from him, lest you don’t even know that you’ve been tricked by him.” Cao Yue nodded vigorously. “I understand. I’ll definitely be careful in the future.’

Cao Yue didn’t know what kind of person Mu Zhixing was, but Zhou Shu was no different from a god to him. He would remember everything Zhou Shu said.

“Uncle, I feel that the power in my body has disappeared. Can I do anything for you now?” Cao Yue said guiltily.

Originally, he had followed Zhou Shu to help him. In the end, after coming to the Dong family’s headquarters, he had almost lost his life. Zhou Shu had had to save him.

Later, he was of no help at all.

This made him feel extremely guilty.

“There’s something I need someone I trust to do,” Zhou Shu said with a smile.

He naturally knew what Cao Yue was thinking. He was also carefully protecting a young man’s thoughts.

“I’ve instructed the Dong family to help me gather forging materials. You’re in charge of receiving the forging materials they bring back.”

“Me? But will the Dong family trust me?” Cao Yue asked.

In his current state, he was still an apprentice recruited by the Dong family. In theory, he should have died.

If he appeared, the elders of the Dong family would definitely be suspicious..
