Chapter 747 - Untitled

Su Ruyu seemed slightly in thought, and everybody felt properly bizarre. Long ago, Su Man had mentioned that the virus in Eleven’s body could be suppressed for a year without any mutations. That, along with how she had extremely few allergies and how careful she was with her diet, meant that her condition, in theory, should not deteriorate.

They were very confident in Su Man. Even if Su Man had gotten the estimated time frame wrong, Su Ruyu was still present and she did not say a word. Su Ruyu did a detailed checkup for Eleven the day after she arrived, and she would have resolved any issues that surfaced.

Ye Wei’s questions brought out the doubt everybody had.

Mo Ye was secretly shocked. Could it be because they… But that did not seem to be the case, and it was neither the first time…

“Kahn’s tear gas contained some sort of medicine that triggered a mutation in the virus. Once the tear gas is inhaled, it enters the body through the respiratory system and reacts with the virus, hence triggering a deterioration of the person’s condition,” Su Ruyu solemnly said.

The tear gas…

Ye Wei closed her eyes for a moment. It was indeed the tear gas! She felt bizarre as to why Kahn seemingly trolled them with tear gas that night.

Even if he had no plans to blatantly screw Su Man’s residence with heavy weaponry, he should not have utilized tear gas as it would not have hurt them a single bit. If he wanted to flush them out of the residence before taking them out in one fell swoop, the lack of action on his part did not seem to add up.

It all turned out that he was just after Eleven.

It was hence little surprise that he would agree to a final battle. He was certain that he would face no competition thanks to Eleven being out of the equation. While he did not know how capable Mo Shitian was, he, however, knew that Old Witch was no slouch. That said, despite how capable Su Ruyu was, her fighting against Kahn would be an uphill battle. Since Kahn could not lay a finger on Su Ruyu, he hence went after Eleven, his biggest threat. Once he had taken Eleven out of the equation, the odds substantially shifted in his favor.

Since he had the virus that infected Meng Lianying, he would definitely be able to trigger the viruses in Eleven too.

Dealing with Eleven was way easier than dealing with Su Ruyu.

He hence utilized those tear gas rounds.

Mo Ye secretly gritted his teeth. They had been negligent, and Kahn’s move was a masterstroke in viciousness and ingenuity. Their attention had been on how he would openly act against them, so they had not expected him to simply take Eleven on.

“Master, is Eleven out of action then?” Chu Li solemnly asked.

Su Ruyu solemnly nodded, and everybody was mildly shocked. “Even if Eleven awakens, she will be out of commission. If she isn’t, her condition will only worsen. Besides, we are afraid her body has been badly damaged,” Su Man said.

“F*** that bastard! I’ll waste that scoundrel Kahn!” Jason roared in anger. When he heard that Kahn was behind it, he was utterly unhappy and eventually lost it when he heard about Eleven’s condition.

He really wished he had the opportunity to skin that bastard alive.

In the evening, Birmingham, Mo Jue’s Knights of the Apocalypse, as well as several experts from the Top Terrorist Organization arrived. Knowing that Eleven met with a mishap and how Mo Ye was in a bad mood, Birmingham did not dare to irritate Mo Ye and was not the enfant terrible he was.

As Mo Jue’s Knights of the Apocalypse got along very well with the Ye family, they were concerned about her leg injury. With so many more people descending upon the Su mansion, the Su mansion became much livelier, which Ping-er liked as she could not resist a crowd. Despite knowing that a massive battle was waiting for them, everybody was in good spirits.

With some time and manpower to spare, Chu Li, Black J, and Mo Ye made rearrangements to their manpower and plans. Mo Ye, due to Eleven’s condition, wanted to remain at the Su mansion.

Chu Li gave it much thought and wanted to seek Su Ruyu’s opinion. Since Su Ruyu, Mo Shitian, and Su Man were not present, he put himself in Mo Yan’s shoes and imagined how he would not want to leave Rong Yan should something happen to her. After a little more thought, he did not insist that Mo Ye participate in the action.

The manpower they had should be sufficient; with Daddy Mo taking on Kahn, and Su Ruyu as a backup, everybody else could focus on taking on the Russian operatives. At the same time, some of them would delay the Interpol agents.

Chu Li, with a better idea of what to expect, allocated much work that night. As Eleven was wounded, they did not take action last night. Since Birmingham, Wind, and Cloud were excellent at gathering intelligence, Black J took them out for some intelligence gathering.

Wind, Cloud, Mo Ye, Su Man, and Bai Ye would remain. Since Ye Wei and Eleven were together, they had to take risks. Considering Mo Shitian would never leave Su Ruyu’s side, Chu Li took a gamble and had Su Ruyu remain in the Su mansion.

Once all these were arranged, the Mo brothers had not much opinion. Chu Li then turned to ask Rong Yan for her opinion, but Rong Yan merely shook her head as her opinion was unsuitable for the issue at hand. Since this was something between the Mafia and the Top Terrorist Organization, it was more apt that the men ironed out amongst themselves.

Rong Yan’s strength was that she was extremely aware of who’s who in any given situation.

As they finished discussing, the sky darkened. Black J led Wind, Cloud, and Birmingham out of the Su mansion. Everybody knew all too well that Kahn had eyes staking out the Su mansion, which they took some time avoiding.

Once they had left, Su Ruyu went over to inform Mo Ye that Eleven had awoken. Mo Ye turned around and disappeared from the great hall. Everybody, who was as worried, wanted to see her but Ye Wei stopped them.

While she was as worried as they were, Eleven wanted to see Mo Ye the most.

Su Ruyu and Su Man gave them space by walking out of the laboratory.

The clear night sky dotted with stars made for a beautiful night in Riyadh. Su Man looked around and gently asked, “Second sister, are you really planning to do this?”

“Is there anything inappropriate about it?” Su Ruyu asked in return with slightly raised delicate eyebrows. “Do you find it dangerous in any way?”

“It’s too risky. If Mo Shitian guesses wrongly, we would completely lose,” Su Man coldly said. There were too many people involved this time, and most were his close friends, family, and… the most important person to him.

Su Man, who was typically cold, seemed aloof about much. He was, however, extremely concerned about this operation.

If anything happened to anybody, he would not be at peace.

While Kahn’s persistence was a given to others, he had heard much about it. That, along with how special Kahn’s constitution was, meant that Mo Shitian defeating him was not a given. If he guessed wrongly, they would not fully back away.

Su Ruyu smiled instead. She stood with her hands behind her and said, “While he may not care about the things of the world for many years, he was, after all, the godfather of the Mafia. He was right about one thing. When he was in power, he left the competition in the dust. While I believe him, you can choose not to play along.”
