Chapter 547 Apollo’s Confidence!

Su Rui watched the call get cut off and slammed the center console hard!

“Hawking has already tracked the other party’s address,it’s on Huanhua Road,two more minutes and we’ll be there.” Victoria said.

“We’re not going there,send people to Huanhua Road to keep a close eye on those Eastern people’s movements,and also,call Zhou Xianwei and have him take Yamamoto Kyokusen to Liangshan Pass at the border with Jinshan!”

Hearing Su Rui’s words,Victoria immediately contacted Zhou Xianwei.

Su Rui still didn’t know that the other side had over two hundred people,he had originally thought eliminating twenty or so ninjas would be easy,but he never expected them to take control of Ye Binglan,which placed enormous restrictions on him!

Su Rui had originally planned to make more use of Yamamoto Kyokusen,but now it seemed there was absolutely no need for that anymore! Getting Ye Binglan back was the most critical thing!

“Turn around,we’re heading to Liangshan Pass too!”

After Victoria contacted Zhou Xianwei,she said,”From here to Liangshan Pass,even taking the outer ring road will take over fifty minutes,the other side set a one-hour limit,they’ll probably arrive after us.”

“Go faster,I need to assess the situation on the ground ahead of time.” Su Rui was getting anxious.

“They probably won’t hand the person over at the same time.” Victoria turned the car around while analyzing,”This is Huaxia territory,they’ll definitely make demands,asking you to escort them to the border before releasing Ye Binglan.”

“There’s no way I’m agreeing to their demands.” Su Rui’s eyes radiated a cold light,”The border is still several thousand kilometers from here,are they kidding?”

“They might make any kind of unreasonable demand.”

“Then refuse all of their demands!”

After saying that,Su Rui closed his eyes and leaned back in his seat without another word.

Yet the rise and fall of his chest was somewhat exaggerated,showing that he was absolutely not as calm as he appeared on the surface!

Behind this Porsche 911,a line of vehicles had already spread out,turning off in different directions at the fork in the road!

At the same time,in an ordinary residential building on Huanhua Road,Ye Binglan,shackled with handcuffs and leg irons,had already been stuffed into a Toyota SUV,and sitting right beside her was Inamoto Junichi dressed all in black!

“Miss Ye,it seems you’re quite nervous.” Inamoto Junichi said.

Since getting in the car,he had kept his eyes closed the entire time.

“Your eyes aren’t even open,how can you tell I’m nervous?” Ye Binglan said.

“I can feel it.” Inamoto Junichi’s tone was flat,”Actually you don’t need to be nervous,if Su Rui cooperates,your personal safety can be greatly assured.”

“But I don’t want your people’s personal safety to be assured.” Ye Binglan’s tone was equally cold.

Inamoto Junichi had no interest in bickering with this woman,as for whether Yamamoto Kyokusen’s life or Su Rui’s life mattered more to him,only he himself knew!

“My lord,I’ve arrived,I think the situation right now is a bit more complicated than we imagined.”

A woman in a black form-fitting outfit was wearing night-vision goggles and had dialed Su Rui’s number.

This person was Rabbit Demon,she had already arrived at the Liangshan Pass area ahead of time!

“How so?” Su Rui still had his eyes closed,and had Victoria turn on the car phone’s Bluetooth.

“The terrain here is somewhat complex,all mountain forest,everyone will need to be equipped with night-vision goggles to fight…”

“I know that place.” Su Rui cut Rabbit Demon off,the Yuanwei Gang had been ambushed in the mountain area nearby back then,how could he not know the situation there?

He wondered whether Inamoto Junichi choosing the area near Liangshan Pass as the hostage exchange location this time had something to do with wiping away the shame of that day!

“My lord,what I want to say is…there are a lot of people,it doesn’t quite match the intelligence we received earlier.” Rabbit Demon said,her tone seeming to carry a trace of dryness.

“How many people?” Su Rui’s voice sharpened!

“I swept the area from my direction,rough estimate,approximately forty.” Rabbit Demon said,”All of these people are wearing night-ops gear,their camouflage is extremely effective,if I weren’t wearing night-vision goggles I wouldn’t have spotted them at all!”

“Forty?” Su Rui’s eyes narrowed slightly,this was also beyond his expectations!

Rabbit Demon had already spotted this many,there might still be more in ambush further back,meaning the enemy’s forces were at least over a hundred!

“We have fewer than twenty people.” Victoria said.

“The enemy could have over a hundred.” Su Rui couldn’t help but think of those five hundred elite warriors from the Yuanwei Gang ambush,and immediately revised his estimate,”Maybe two or three hundred is possible! These cunning Eastern people!”

“Do we need to mobilize heavy firepower?”

“No.”

Su Rui thought for a moment and said,”This isn’t a positional battle,there’s no need for that. Since it’s a hostage exchange,then we follow the steps of a hostage exchange.”

With that,he took out his phone and started making calls.

Li Yang was sleeping. As the leader of the Qinglong Gang,after handing over all the day-to-day management of the gang to Zhang Ziwei,he had begun focusing entirely on developing business,working hard every day,a completely different person from the one who used to live in debauchery.

The ringtone of his phone disturbed his peaceful sleep. In the past he would always turn his phone off when sleeping,but after submitting to Su Rui,afraid that the other party wouldn’t be able to reach him,his phone was now never on silent.

In fact,having reached his position,very few people dared to call and disturb him in the middle of the night.

Li Yang groggily opened his eyes,saw who was calling,and his whole person snapped to attention.

“Young Master Su,what are your orders?” Li Yang knew that Su Rui looking for him in the middle of the night absolutely meant there was something he needed from him!

“How much decent combat strength does the Qinglong Gang have?” Su Rui asked straight away.

After Li Yang gave a number,Su Rui shook his head,”The Battle Hall has quite a few people,you and Zhang Ziwei bring all the Battle Hall members to Liangshan Pass at the border with Jinshan right now,remember,everyone must be equipped with both cold weapons and firearms,don’t hold anything back this time,show everything the Qinglong Gang has got!”

“Yes! I’ll get on it right away!”

Doing something like this in the middle of the night was genuinely difficult,but Li Yang didn’t hesitate for a moment,he could clearly hear the gravity in Su Rui’s tone!

Li Yang had interacted with Su Rui many times,he knew that very few things in this world could make him this serious!

After hanging up,a trace of gratitude rose in his heart.

The vast majority of people believed that after Zhang Ziwei became the first deputy leader,he as the so-called leader had already been sidelined,and today’s matter was the same,Su Rui could have completely bypassed him and contacted Zhang Ziwei directly,but instead the call had come here,and that was a sign of respect!

Su Rui would never have imagined that this small gesture of his made Li Yang,who had weathered so many storms,feel deeply moved and from that point on even more wholeheartedly devoted!

“The most important battle in the Qinglong Gang’s history,we absolutely cannot back down!”

Li Yang clenched his fist hard and said to Zhang Ziwei on the other end of the phone!

…………

In truth,Su Rui knew that although the Qinglong Gang’s Battle Hall was not small in number,their actual combat strength still had a certain gap compared to those elite warrior ninjas from the East.

Especially when facing those chunin,they were simply no match.

But Su Rui wasn’t sending them to their deaths,their main role was deterrence!

“Should we notify the Huaxia government? It would be even better if they could send special forces to join the fight.” Seeing Su Rui hang up,Victoria said.

“Even if they flew here from the capital it would be too late.” Su Rui’s eyes narrowed slightly and said,”You don’t understand Huaxia affairs,when it comes to underground conflicts,the government won’t step in to intervene,that would invite criticism.”

He paused,then continued,”Especially now,there are too many conservatives in the government,I don’t want to cause trouble for the people who want to help me because of my own affairs!”

Su Rui knew clearly that after mobilizing twelve helicopters to help him rush to the Qin family estate to stop the wedding,many people in the top-secret training division had received disciplinary actions! That was absolutely not a result Su Rui wanted to see!

“Then it’s just a fight with our backs to the wall.” Victoria let out a soft sigh,she understood Su Rui’s character far too well,he would rather bear too much himself than put his brothers in danger.

Of course,it was also precisely because of this character of his that the Temple of the Sun had grown and expanded so rapidly in just a few short years,with tremendous momentum! A group of brothers followed closely behind Su Rui,wholeheartedly devoted!

After closing his eyes in thought for a minute,Su Rui dialed another number.

“Strategist,send some people to Huaxia,I need manpower here,as soon as possible.” Su Rui said concisely and hung up.

Victoria nearly fainted,what was he talking about,flying from the Temple of the Sun’s location to here would take over ten hours even by plane! That was too far away to help in time,could Su Rui really be that confident that he would definitely win tonight?

Sensing Victoria’s gaze,Su Rui smiled slightly and said,”You’ve followed me for so long,when have you ever seen me fight a battle I wasn’t sure about? Since I don’t need the support of Huaxia special forces,then I truly don’t need it. If it weren’t for Ye Binglan being taken hostage,I wouldn’t even give those Eastern people a second thought! No matter if the other side has twenty people or two hundred!”

Looking at the confidence in Su Rui’s eyes,Victoria pursed her lips,”Let’s see if you’ll still be talking so tough in a little while.”

Su Rui smiled,unbothered,and said,”Victoria,since the Twelve Divine Guards assembled,has there ever been a time when we fought at full strength?”

Victoria was taken aback,instinctively thought back,and nodded.

Over these past few years,every time they carried out a mission,the Twelve Divine Guards would not all deploy at once,always leaving a few people to hold down the home base,and this time in Huaxia was the moment for them to appear together in full force!

“If the mighty Temple of the Sun’s Twelve Divine Guards can’t even handle these ragtag Eastern people,then the Temple of the Sun might as well shut its doors.” Su Rui gave a cold smile,”This time let those figures in the Western dark world see exactly what the Twelve Divine Guards’ peak combat power looks like!”

This time,Victoria said nothing more,her right hand dropped from the steering wheel and she stroked a platinum mask resting beside her seat.

…………

Rabbit Demon strictly followed Su Rui’s orders,staying in place on standby,but she noticed that a tall unfamiliar figure had appeared in her field of vision at some unknown point.

The other person was dressed in black night-ops gear,clearly unaware of Rabbit Demon’s presence,and was silently closing in on an Eastern warrior hidden behind a tree trunk!
