Chapter 417 Knocked Out One

Only when the Shadow Organization lets down its guard will they stop running around.

As for the Dragon Group, they can use truth serum to extract critical information from the Seven Warriors!

Then, it will be a complete sweep!

After all, the Shadow Organization has absolute trust in the Seven Warriors they've created.

They know the Seven Warriors will never betray the Shadow Organization!

Therefore, what the Seven Warriors can see and know might even exceed that of some high-ranking officials within the Shadow Organization!

"Doctor Zhou, it's not that we don't trust you, but how can you be sure that your truth serum will definitely work on the Seven Warriors?" Fei Ying couldn't help but ask.

They currently have no Seven Warriors available for experiments.

If they wait until people are captured and the plan is executed,

and then find out the truth serum is useless, what then?

Zhou Yu smiled and said, "The Shi family has gathered a large number of Seven Warriors. I believe it wouldn't be difficult for the Dragon Group to discreetly knock one out and bring them back for experimentation, would it?"

Zhou Yu has always had immense confidence in the drugs he develops!

As for the Zhu and Xie families, it's even more so.

They believe in Zhou Yu even more than they believe in themselves!

This is because, in their eyes, Zhou Yu has already become a legend.

He conquered the longevity pill in just three days.

Is there anything Zhou Yu cannot do?

"Doctor Zhou is truly forthright," Fei Ying couldn't help but exclaim.

He had initially thought that Zhou Yu was deliberately playing mind games, making the Dragon Group work for the Zhu and Xie families.

The so-called truth serum was probably fake.

But now, seeing Zhou Yu's candid attitude,

even though they haven't tested the truth serum yet, Fei Ying knew he had misunderstood Zhou Yu just now!

"There's no time to lose. Take advantage of tonight, and you can start your action to verify the effect of the truth serum!"

"Then tomorrow, we can discuss the details."

"If it's ineffective, we won't force the Dragon Group to help. You can wait until the Zhu and Xie families are annihilated, and then the Dragon Group can pick up the pieces."

Zhou Yu spoke his mind without regard for Leng Xue's feelings, all in plain truth!

Leng Xue immediately stood up and nodded at Zhou Yu.

Then she bid farewell to Old Master Xie.

Just as they had arrived,

Leng Xue and the Dragon Group members left as swiftly as they had come!

Boom—

The modified camouflage off-road vehicle, with its accelerator pressed down, disappeared into the night.

After watching Leng Xue leave, Zhou Yu closed the door of the Xie family's old mansion and returned.

After Leng Xue's sudden visit, the food on the table had gone cold.

But no one present had the appetite to eat and drink.

As soon as they saw Zhou Yu return,

Old Master Xie immediately asked, "Doctor Zhou, what you told Commander Leng just now, is it all true?"

Zhou Yu nodded.

He asked strangely, "What's wrong, Old Master? Do I look like someone who would brag?"

Old Master Xie shook his head; he was simply a little shocked!

He never imagined that Zhou Yu, after merely researching a drug, could come up with such clever plans.

And produce two results!

"If the Dragon Group can truly join forces with us to eliminate the Shi family first, this battle is already won!"

The Patriarch of the Zhu family said happily.

Actually, they hadn't pinned much hope on pushing Zhou Yu out earlier.

They had even prepared for negotiations with the Dragon Group to break down.

After all, their interests were not aligned!

The Zhu and Xie families were determined to see the Shi family destroyed first, and there was no room for negotiation.

But they never expected that Zhou Yu, with just a few words, would directly change Leng Xue's mind.

"Doctor Zhou, thank you for your trouble again today," Old Master Xie said with emotion.

Zhou Yu shook his head and stood up, "Old Master, please don't say such things in the future. Since I've agreed to help the Xie family, we are on the same boat now."

"What help or not?"

"Besides, I've already taken forty percent of the Xie family's shares. I have to do something, don't I!"

Old Master Xie smiled awkwardly, his mind already calculating what else he could give Zhou Yu as a thank you gift!

But no one expected.

Zhou Yu's words were indeed the truth, not mere pleasantries.

Even without the Zhu and Xie families, Zhou Yu would likely have acted anyway.

Don't forget, Shi Lifeng was still with the Shi family!

The revenge for his son's death was irreconcilable.

If the Shi family were to absorb the Zhu and Xie families, they might truly help Shi Lifeng deal with Zhou Yu, and even rescue Zhang Deshuang and his son.

This conflict was inevitable for Zhou Yu!

No one had the appetite to eat anymore.

The kitchen reheated some soup for everyone to drink, and then they dispersed.

Since the Dragon Group would be visiting again tomorrow,

for convenience, the Patriarch of the Zhu family took Zhu Ling'er to stay at the Xie family's residence for the night.

Guest rooms were readily available!

However, the guest rooms were quite far from Old Master Xie's room.

So the Patriarch of the Zhu family requested if they could stay in the side wing, just like Zhou Yu.

This was naturally rejected.

"My grandfather tends to wake up at night; if you two stay here, you might not be able to rest well!" Xie Yu politely refused.

The primary reason was Old Master Xie's safety, which was too important!

Despite cooperating with the Zhu family, one could never be too careful.

Who knew if the Zhu family might develop ulterior motives due to the rise of the Shi family?

After all, theoretically,

if they kicked the Xie family aside, the Zhu family could cooperate with the Dragon Group and gain even greater benefits!

In any case, Xie Yu dared not gamble with her grandfather's life.

Besides,

Zhou Yu was already staying in Old Master Xie's courtyard.

If two more people were to come, what would that make it?

Too crowded!

The Patriarch of the Zhu family did not insist; he merely made the request, and upon refusal, he left with Zhu Ling'er.

After the father and daughter walked away,

the Master of the Xie family spoke, "Tomorrow, Xiao Yu and I will go out on business."

"Shishi will stay with Doctor Zhou and arrange defenses at home!"

"Remember, if the Shi family suddenly attacks, you must not engage them head-on. Find an opportunity to escape first."

"Everything will be decided after we return!"

Xie Yu's eyes lit up with excitement, and she nodded involuntarily.

Xie Shishi also had no objections to this arrangement.

After the group discussed preparations for the next few days,

they each went their separate ways.

Zhou Yu went to Old Master Xie's courtyard as usual, and took his pulse for a while.

"Doctor Zhou, how is it?" Old Master Xie asked with a smile.

Zhou Yu glanced at him; what a child he was!

"There are no major issues, but due to excessive exertion recently, the rate of vitality loss is not normal."

"I told you before to rest, why didn't you listen?"

Zhou Yu said with some displeasure.

As a doctor, it was natural to be upset when seeing a patient harm their own health!

Old Master Xie coughed to cover his embarrassment.

"It's just that I was worried they couldn't handle it. In reality, I haven't done much; it's all Xie Yu and the others doing..."

Old Master Xie knew he was in the wrong, and his voice grew softer as he spoke,

appearing exceptionally guilty!

Zhou Yu shook his head helplessly, but in his heart, he understood Old Master Xie very well!
