The moment he reached out to stroke Eleven's chin, the man next to her grabbed his hand in the blink of an eye.
He was so fast he almost caught Kahn's wrist.
"F*** off! Don't dirty her face!"
He sounded like an angel from hell. However, he was so gorgeous to the point he looked like the lovechild of the angel and the devil.
When did Mo Ye become so capable?
Kahn slightly raised his eyebrows. A hint of danger flashed across his eyes. He suddenly heard a few agonizing cries, followed by thumps of heavy objects slumping onto the ground. Shocked, Kahn turned around and realized that his men had fallen.
With deathly looks on them that seemed devoid of life, Kahn suddenly opened his eyes wide and noticed Su Man calmly walking into the great hall. The immaculate-looking gentleman, as though he were an angel incarnate, was calm and beautiful. His countenance was extremely cold to the point nothing seemed to be of his business.
However, everybody outside had collapsed. That was the truth.
Su Man was an expert at toxins.
Although Kahn was impervious to toxins, taking down over twenty of his men made their job much easier. Kahn stared at Su Man in anger before he suddenly laughed madly.
So what if they had fallen? None could defeat him.
He suddenly struck at Ye Wei, but little did he expect Ye Wei to deftly avoid it. Eleven came between them and pushed his hand away. All these happened so quickly that Kahn did not quite know what was going on.
Ye Wei's leg had miraculously recovered!
It was such a perfect recovery that Kahn saw through the ruse. She was absolutely not Ye Wei! Since Ye Wei's leg would not recover so quickly, the one who left the mansion earlier was indeed Ye Wei...
Damn it!
Kahn's targets were clear: Su Ruyu, Eleven, and Ye Wei. Since he had long guessed that they would not put Ye Wei at risk, they would certainly not allow Ye Wei to appear at the meeting and would instead arrange for a stand-in.
Since Eleven's condition worsened, she must be in the Su mansion too. Among the three of them, Kahn would naturally choose to kill Ye Wei first, take Eleven, and then slowly kill Su Ruyu.
Time-wise, Meng Lianying would be able to stall them at the castle while he tied up loose ends at the Su mansion before returning to the castle. The plan was originally perfect, but...
Was it really Ye Wei who went earlier today?
How could this be?
Moreover, how could Eleven be able to move? According to his plans, even if Eleven was awake, she should still be in bed and immobile despite Su Ruyu's medical skills.
"Who are you?" he flatly asked. He was certain she was not Eleven.
Eleven raised her hand and coldly smiled before she wiped her face and removed a mask. Kahn was slightly taken aback. It was actually Su Ruyu! How could this be!? Who left the mansion today then?
From the footage, he could clearly see that it was Su Ruyu who had left the mansion. Save Su Ruyu and Eleven, who else would have that look and temperament? Could it have been Eleven?
If Ye Wei and Eleven had indeed headed to the castle whereas Su Ruyu remained here... Did he get something wrong?
This was impossible. Kahn was shocked. He had put much thought into the meetup, and every step from the tear gas attack was part of his grand plan. He made countless speculations about how they would react and plan to each step of his.
How could he have gone wrong? Something somewhere must have been wrong! It must have... What if Eleven impersonated Su Ruyu, who had left, this morning? In that case, how did she seem to be in the pink of health?
Su Ruyu coldly laughed as she looked at Kahn mockingly."You must be wondering who left today, huh? To save you some misery, yes, it was Eleven as you would have expected. But I guess you must be wondering how Eleven could have recovered, no?"
Wind and Cloud did not expect Ye Wei and Eleven to be someone else, and they were in the dark about it! If that is the case, Ye Wei must be Ruhua instead of herself... Just what was going on?
"What exactly did you do?" Kahn growled. Damn it! He just could not believe that he still could not outwit Su Ruyu even after so many years. This was impossible!
"What did I do?" Su Ruyu raised her eyebrows."Kahn, you've outsmarted yourself. While we were almost fooled by you, thankfully, we had people who were even more scheming than you. Don't you know what it feels like to be beaten at your own game? Ever since your tear gas attack, I picked up a chemical that was bad for Eleven in the air. Since then, I gave Eleven checkups to inoculate her against the chemical in the air. Her coughing blood day was merely a ruse as I knew you had bugged Su Man's mansion. Since you knew us from cover to cover, I decided not to tell you anything and allow you to believe that your plan went as planned. That belief allowed you to let your guard down, and I must say that it worked perfectly against you. Eleven is in very good shape, and I will be able to formulate the antidote without requiring yours in any way. Kahn, on account that we are master and disciple, turn back to me and I can save you."
"In your f***ing dreams! You saving me?! You saving me!!??" Kahn was so agitated he almost ripped off his black eyepatch. As Su Ruyu said, how could he accept the fact that she was responsible for turning him into that living hell he was in?
Su Ruyu coldly laughed."It seems like we are headed for a fight to the death. Kahn, you'd better think it through. Back then, it was Wolf who turned you into who you are. If it weren't for him, you would have grown up with Chu Li and the others, and perhaps even become a leader in the Top Terrorist Organization. It was him who turned you into who you are, and you should hate him instead of me. For all you know, I'm just not bothered about you."
"Nonsense! It was you. It was clearly you that used me as a guinea pig for Eleven! It was you, you inhumane b**** who could not bear to let Eleven give me the experimental medicine, so you had me become her guinea pig instead. You're behind all of it!" Kahn roared, venting out his frustration and grudges across the years.
Su Ruyu sighed deeply."Was it Wolf who told you all that? Kahn, you are wrong. I was never of the opinion that either of you should be guinea pigs for each other. Wolf wanted his way, and I cannot be blamed for that."
"You..." Kahn flew into a rage and swung his hand at Su Ruyu."I'll f***ing kill you!"
He lunged at Su Ruyu crazily. Once again, Mo Shitian darted before Kahn and blocked his fists before throwing him aside. Kahn, who was no slouch himself, quickly regained his footing.
