Wu Yang wanted to use the excuse of hunting down Du Gang and his companions to temporarily leave the core of the Source Land. He planned to switch from being overtly to covertly involved, making himself a stealth attacker.
But wasn't Du Gang thinking the exact same way?
For him, the size of Wu Yang's team provided just the right number of people needed to complete their first mission. Simultaneously, it also dealt with a potential problem.
After all, being relentlessly pursued was always a nuisance.
Just like that, with each side harboring hidden intentions, a chase ensued until they covered a significant distance.
They stopped at a location where Du Gang believed they were far enough that even if he exposed himself, people from the core area would not know.
He halted, and without exception, Kou Yingwu and the others naturally followed suit, stopping as well.
Wu Yang's team, quite consciously, surrounded them and trapped Du Gang's group in the center.
"Not running anymore?!"
