372: Bai Ling?

"That's fine, but I'm quite curious about what it is that you can't take out yourself."

"It's not that I can't take it out myself, but rather that the people here simply have no way of leaving."

The man spoke with extreme indifference and introduced himself to Chen Tianming.

"My name is Wu Wenlong, and I can be considered someone capable in this region!"

"Does that include experience in finding people?" Chen Tianming nodded.

"Rest assured, I will give you a satisfactory answer; I won't lie to you." After saying this, Wu Wenlong walked straight ahead.

Watching Wu Wenlong's tall and sturdy back, Chen Tianming fell into deep thought.

Whether it was the other party's initiative or enthusiastic attitude, it made him unable to stop overthinking, especially in this strange place; the help of a stranger might not be trustworthy, but it also might not be untrustworthy.

After all, one cannot see into another person's heart, and he couldn't guarantee that the other person wasn't trying to harm him.

"Hey, what are you doing? Hurry up and follow." Seeing that Chen Tianming was standing still, Wu Wenlong couldn't help but stop and call out.

"Oh, coming."

Chen Tianming hurriedly walked towards Wu Wenlong, while simultaneously putting away all his previous thoughts.

Seeing that Chen Tianming had walked over, Wu Wenlong continued to walk forward.

This place was very remote, and most people didn't know that such a place existed here.

"Are you sure the person you are looking for has been to Black City? As far as I know, there hasn't been a new face in Black City for several years."

Wu Wenlong suddenly stopped and said.

Chen Tianming was stunned for a moment, not quite understanding the meaning behind the other party's words, but looking at what had been said before, it seemed that the people here couldn't leave, and people from the outside couldn't enter; so what did that make him?

"Are you sure that the people here cannot leave? What if there are other secret passages?"

Hearing Chen Tianming's words, which were clearly suspicious, Wu Wenlong shook his head with a chuckle.

"If there really were such a place, it would be impossible for me not to know. You should know that the entire southern part of the city is full of my eyes and ears, and they are spread throughout the whole city."

"If there were passages in other places, they should be within our field of vision; it's impossible that I wouldn't see them."

Seeing that Chen Tianming didn't believe him, Wu Wenlong said, "I have researched ways to get out for a long time. If there is really anyone who can come and go as they please, I'm afraid it would only be that City Lord!"

"The City Lord of Black City, have you never seen him?"

"Never. The City Lord comes and goes freely; almost no one has ever seen him, and he rarely appears."

Hearing Wu Wenlong say this, most of Chen Tianming's concerns were dispelled. Regardless of whether it was true or not, there was at least one way to leave, and even if the other party had a conspiracy, it didn't matter.

Thinking of this, Chen Tianming continued to follow Wu Wenlong forward.

Just as he stepped into the southern part of the city, Chen Tianming noticed something wrong.

"No need to be nervous, they are all my people." Seeing Chen Tianming tense up, Wu Wenlong immediately said with a smile.

"I'm not nervous," Chen Tianming said.

"Since you aren't nervous, let's continue walking then," Wu Wenlong said with a smile.

Chen Tianming didn't speak again and continued to walk forward.

"Hey, aren't you going to ask me why I'm taking you to the southern part of the city?" Wu Wenlong looked at Chen Tianming with curiosity.

"This is your territory, and you brought me here, although it is for the sake of security."

Chen Tianming replied indifferently, while simultaneously sensing how many people were in the vicinity.

"Then you are quite bold; knowing this is my territory, you still dared to come."

The sudden change in tone still did not make Chen Tianming nervous; instead, he became even calmer.

"Hahaha, I believe we are friends now, so I won't harm you, and you don't need to be afraid," Wu Wenlong laughed.

"Of course I'm not afraid; we still have cooperation between us. As long as what you said is true, then I think even if you can't get out for a while, it's impossible for you to make a move on me."

Chen Tianming admitted that he was indeed taking a gamble with Wu Wenlong, but more than that, it was his confidence in his own strength.

Seeing Chen Tianming looking so confident, Wu Wenlong was secretly puzzled.

Chen Tianming actually had confidence?

Could it be that Chen Tianming was stronger than them?

Thinking of this, Wu Wenlong was secretly shocked.

If Chen Tianming really was a powerful expert, he couldn't afford to provoke him.

Thinking of this, Wu Wenlong didn't hesitate any longer and immediately quickened his pace to walk forward.

Not long after, Wu Wenlong and Chen Tianming arrived at a small building.

"Mr. Wu, you have arrived." The door at the stairs suddenly opened, and two men in black stood there respectfully.

Wu Wenlong nodded, then took Chen Tianming and continued walking inside.

"Mr. Wu, please come in." Seeing Wu Wenlong approach, the man in black hurriedly invited him inside.

Chen Tianming felt a bit strange; was Wu Wenlong the boss here?

"Mr. Wu, who is he?" Wu Wenlong's personal subordinate asked in confusion.

"An important guest I brought. Did your boss not tell you that I have urgent matters?" Wu Wenlong glared coldly at the man.

The man hurriedly lowered his head, not daring to make a sound. How was he to know that Wu Wenlong would actually bring back a young man, and that he was their boss?

Seeing that Wu Wenlong didn't want to tell the man who he was, and only gave a simple introduction, the man shut his mouth.

Wu Wenlong brought Chen Tianming to the outside of an iron door.

Wu Wenlong pointed to the mechanism next to the iron door and then placed his right hand on the iron door.

"Click."

The iron door slowly descended, revealing a long row of stairs below.

"Go in," Wu Wenlong said.

Chen Tianming nodded and then walked down.

As soon as he walked down, he was immediately enveloped by shadows.

In the pitch-black darkness, Chen Tianming really didn't dare to move for a moment.

"Follow me; no open flames are allowed here."

Having already reached this point, Chen Tianming could only trust Wu Wenlong.

However, he followed closely, step by step.

After about 10 minutes like this, it finally opened up.

Suddenly seeing sunlight, Chen Tianming lowered his head in discomfort.

This was a very large room, about ten square meters or so, and a rich fragrance floated in the air.

These fragrances were mixed together, making one feel refreshed just by smelling them.

However, mixed in with those fragrances was a scent of blood; this smell was very strong, and Chen Tianming couldn't help but frown.

"What exactly is going on here?" Chen Tianming couldn't help but ask.

Wu Wenlong waved his hand and said: "It's nothing, just some obscuring things he made; it doesn't matter."

"Come out, I've brought someone here!"

"This person isn't from Black City; where did you catch him?"

A woman in white drifted down from upstairs; she was wearing a white dress, appearing before Chen Tianming like an immortal or a goddess.

Chen Tianming saw the other party's appearance clearly and couldn't help but be secretly shocked.
