Chapter 1426: Chapter 1426: Double-Sided Plan
Ye Lu didn’t follow him after all.
A strange smile appeared on his lips, part mocking, part sighing. He had exploited Ye Lu’s sense of guilt. After all, Ye Lu hadn’t completely betrayed him—could the godfather have foreseen this?
Alright, now that he had slipped out of Ye Lu’s surveillance, there was plenty for him to do next.
Third Young Master Jun wandered outside aimlessly for two hours, his eyes flashing with allure as he confirmed he had completely escaped monitoring. He then entered a massive underground casino.
The underground casino was a chaotic mix of dragons and snakes. It was buzzing with noise, lively and vibrant, filled with a decadent atmosphere. Neon lights dazzled amidst the crowd, rendering him a ghost among the sea of people, impossible to track.
Inside the casino, after navigating several turns, passing through multiple doors, and undergoing a series of strict inspections from wary guards, he finally entered a dimly lit room. Inside, people were already waiting for him!
A narrow and plain room with little furnishing—its only distinctive feature was dark red sofas, occupied by three or four figures. Each carried an astonishing background and exuded an undeniable aura. Any one of them wielded enough power to stir chaos across North America.
The moment Third Young Master entered, the atmosphere shifted drastically, a sharp tension and hidden currents emerging within the room.
All those present subtly lifted their gazes toward him, their faces bearing a complex mix of vigilance, wariness, hatred, and suspicion.
"It seems everyone is here. Although you may not all know each other personally, you are all notable figures in your respective domains and should at least recognize each other’s identities. Let me make the introductions just the same," said Mr. Old Ross.
His shrewd eyes glinted with satisfaction. As the intermediary who coordinated between Third Young Master Jun and various factions, inviting all high-ranking individuals involved in this secret plan, it was only fitting that he was the one to speak and introduce everyone.
"From D Country: Major General Ling Yan, who is participating in the Sudian Group elimination operation."
Old Ross first introduced Ling Yan. Ling Yan raised his head coldly, casting a fleeting glance at Third Young Master Jun. Despite the subtle hatred in his gaze, he suppressed it with composure.
Third Young Master seemed entirely unfazed by the hostility, smiling faintly at him and giving a polite nod.
"This is Yu Xi, Chief of Staff for the United Army involved in the elimination operation."
He was a tall, slender Oriental military man, about sixty years old, with a weathered, aged face that bore the austere dignity of a seasoned soldier.
Next was an opposite figure, a middle-aged white military officer embodying the archetype of a hawkish general, carrying the presence of someone assertive and domineering.
"Admiral Laplace of the North American United Government Air Force."
Old Ross then turned to an ashen-faced, sinister-looking elder with an air of nervousness in his demeanor.
"Burleigh, an A-class drug trafficker and an informant for the North American United Government Intelligence Bureau."
After introducing several other individuals of equally remarkable and enigmatic identities, Old Ross finally shifted his focus to Third Young Master Jun.
All eyes in the room, belonging to these powerful figures, followed suit, their oppressive gazes stabbing at him like blades pressed against his throat.
"And finally, this man is the key figure in the entire operation to annihilate the drug cartel—the Jun Huang, godson of Sudian! Now, I officially announce the Pacific cooperation plan is commencing. This summit serves as the foundation for collaboration on both sides. Together, in North America and the triangle region, we will utterly eradicate the Sudian Group!"
...
"Why wouldn’t you be happy? They’ve divorced. You should be overjoyed—you’ve avenged King, and now you have a chance to reclaim Ye Lu, that woman," Su Feiman remarked with a sardonic smile at Gu Yan.
