Chapter 486: Yang Da's Arrangement
"No need, I'm well aware of the condition of my own body. Besides, ever since you prescribed the medicine for me, I've felt that my deep-seated health indicators have been gradually decreasing. In fact, they're quite stable now."
"That's good. Please be sure to get in touch with me if you need anything. Also, about that medicine, I'd like to adjust it for you during this visit. Over time, resistance to it can build up."
"Okay, I understand. Just make the arrangements as you see fit."
After saying this, he simply nodded his head.
"By the way, where are the other members of the Scorpion Gang now? I heard that when they were brought in, there were more than 20 people in total, not counting him. Where are the others, and how are their injuries?"
"The others mostly have superficial wounds, and a few have internal injuries, but none of them too serious. They are currently recovering and are spread out in different wards. Don't worry, they should have no problem recovering soon."
"Alright, I get it. You carry on with your work here; I'll go meet with them to discuss the next steps."
"Sure, I understand. Please contact me if you need anything."
With those words, the dean escorted him to the lobby where they had parted ways before.
Finally, the elder of the Scorpion Gang came over, simply nodded in acknowledgment, then they all headed in a different direction.
This was a secret laboratory. Besides being a hospital, this place also contained private spaces for temporary meetings or discussing more confidential matters.
After entering the spacious reception room, the other members of the Scorpion Gang all stood up from their seats.
"That's fine, no need for formalities. Besides, we've all met before. Please, have a seat."
The elder gentleman just nodded and then naturally took the seat of honor.
"I've heard about what happened this time. By the way, how are you doing now?"
As he spoke, Yang Da turned to look at the second-in-command sitting across the room.
"Thanks to your care, my elder, I am fine now."
"During the fight with him, did you feel anything? Like, is this man truly formidable? Or, did you notice anything from the martial arts moves he used?"
"His techniques are very unusual, and his speed extremely fast. Just from these two moves, I could tell he is an opponent we cannot contend with. But the key issue now is that if we are to proceed, we'll have to employ some other strategies."
"Oh? What do you mean?"
"I mean that under these circumstances, we can't keep waiting like this. And just the few of us, if we were to confront him all at once, I believe he would have no chance of winning. So, I think we have a very good chance of success in this respect."
Looking at him speak, the conviction was clear, and the elder knew it wasn't going to be simple to deal with Ye Chen, but the key issue was that the root cause wasn't addressed.
Even as a Pioneer, despite his impressive skills, these were just exterior pressures; internally, there was no real way to make a change.
"Even if you take down Ye Chen, what then? Moreover, if the first Ye Chen is taken care of, are you sure there won't be a second or even a third Ye Chen?"
"What's the difference? As long as there is a Ye Chen, we'll deal with him. Wouldn't that solve the fundamental problem?"
"No, you're oversimplifying things. Don't forget who we are up against this time. That's Guo Tao."
"Are you saying Guo Tao is already here?"
"Of course, he is here. And if he didn't show up at this time, wait, something just occurred to me."
"Oh? Speak, elder."
"Right now, make arrangements for someone to go to the young master's villa, find the Jade Ring in the underground shrine, and bring it to me as soon as possible."
"The Jade Ring, oh, I understand. This whole thing started because of that Jade Ring. It turns out the young master had hidden it at home."
"Right. That Jade Ring is the fuse for the whole incident. If it weren't for that, I wouldn't have the opportunity to settle the total account with that old fox."
His eyes were filled with hatred as he spoke; it was clear that their animosity had not really diminished over the years.
"Okay, got it. I'll arrange for someone to deliver it right away."
"Also, tomorrow, deploy all our informants in Sea City in all directions but make sure they don't gather together and go in different directions. Later tonight, I'll write you an email and send it to your inbox. You'll search based on the instructions in the email. If we locate the right place, then we can confirm whether the members of U12 have come here or not."
"U12 has always been a legendary and mysterious Invisible Team, and rumor has it there are 12 members, right?"
"But to be honest, no one has truly experienced their combat effectiveness. The rumors in the Martial Arts World claim that wherever U12 goes, they are invincible, basically incapable of failing any mission."
"What kinds of people are in this team? And all these years, even we members of the Scorpion Gang have never clashed with them directly. Also, there's no information on what they look like or their appearance."
"I've also gathered some scattered information from society and compiled it to make some basic judgments. But besides that, for the time being, I don't have any more information."
