Chapter 422: Chapter 421: Dark and Windy Night [Second Update]
"Grandfather, what are you hesitating about?" As the whole family turned their gaze to Grandmaster Meskill, he remained silent. Thus, Donald Meskill frowned, completely baffled."I must be responsible for the clan and consider all aspects. What if the strike fails?" Grandmaster Meskill counter-asked.
With an ironic smile, Donald Meskill said, "Isn’t it just a bit of ability to telekinetically manipulate objects? What else can he do?" He continued, "His physical strength, endurance, speed, power, are they not inferior to ours? His only reliance is his ability to telekinetically control Flying Swords to weave through and kill."
"With just that point, how many of you can get close to him?" Grandmaster Meskill said, looking at Donald Meskill, "I’ve collected accurate intelligence on him. He managed to escape unscathed under the siege of Japan’s three major schools, causing an uproar in Japan, and yet the Japanese didn’t even catch a glimpse of his shadow. Don’t you find this man eerily strange?"
"Japan has its own masters too. To be able to retreat safely, what did he rely on?" Grandmaster Meskill counter-asked.
"We’re also looking into that," Donald Meskill said, frowning. "Logically, under those circumstances, even I, might not have been able to get away unharmed."
"That’s exactly the issue!" Grandmaster Meskill nodded and said, "The Japanese didn’t capture him. If our Meskill Family goes to siege him and still can’t kill him, allowing him to escape, have you thought about the consequences?"
"Then, the major trouble for our Meskill Family would truly begin."
"We must try," Donald Meskill said thoughtfully, narrowing his eyes. "I’ll go alone and test his limits!"
"No."
"No!"
Upon hearing Donald Meskill’s words, the Meskill family stood up in unison. If the clan’s experts went, they could rest assured, but if Donald Meskill went alone, what would happen in case of trouble?
"Grandfather, Father, uncles, it’s not that I’m overconfident, but I must go!" Donald Meskill said firmly: "If I don’t go, and our Meskill Family remains inactive, wouldn’t that make our Meskill Family a laughingstock among the four great clans? Not only would this affect our Meskill Family’s morale, but it would also affect our position. What would the other clans and the martial world think of the Meskill Family then?"
"I’m confident that even if I can’t kill him, I’ll certainly inflict heavy damage on him. As for him killing me?" Donald Meskill chuckled coldly and said, "Let him get twenty more years of experience before even thinking about it."
"What’s the difference between you going alone and us going together?" Alvin Escobar suddenly asked.
"Of course, there’s a difference," Donald Meskill laughed and explained: "If I go alone, first, I represent the Meskill family, second, he won’t be able to ascertain our true strength, not knowing how many of us there are, and third, if I go alone and fail to kill him, he is unlikely to retaliate, because the human psyche is fascinating. My going signifies a personal challenge, the outcome, win or lose, concerns only me and doesn’t burden the entire family."
"It’s too dangerous!" Alvin Escobar said, eyeing Donald Meskill: "Even standing before him, I have no confidence of winning. This feeling is very direct, so your going is tantamount to doing nothing helpful!"
"Heh heh heh." Donald Meskill chuckled and shook his head. He wanted to say, you, Alvin Escobar, would not last ten moves against me; you would die within ten moves!
But he couldn’t say it out loud because Alvin Escobar was considered half a Meskill, being the head of the Meskill Family’s retainers, and they relied on him to lead the protection of the Meskill Family in the future.
"Grandfather, I must go. No one can stop my determination to sever his head!" Donald Meskill suddenly stood up resolutely. Once he had made a decision, he never changed it.
"If you’re set on going, then we can only let you take the risk," Grandmaster Meskill knew too well how stubborn his grandson was. If he said he would go, then no one could stop him.
"Alvin, organize everyone to go with Donald," Grandmaster Meskill finally made up his mind. He couldn’t let his grandson face danger alone. If they had to go, it would have to be everyone together to increase the chances of victory.
"Greg, where is Yusuf Zuck now?" Since the decision was made, they needed to end this quickly to avoid any complications.
"Master, we’ve lost him!" Greg was the butler, and the butler was tasked with gathering all intelligence. However, at this moment, he looked distressed because they had lost track of Yusuf Zuck’s whereabouts.
"What?" Hearing the butler’s words, Grandmaster Meskill’s brows shot up, his face turning green with anger.
"Grandpa Greg, how did we lose him?" Donald Meskill asked with a smile.
"Master, he went to the Petty Family’s at noon, and when he came out, someone started to track our people. We had to withdraw, and that’s how we lost him!" The butler said with an ugly look on his face.
"Hoo..." Hearing the butler’s words, Master Meskill’s face eased somewhat. He was aware of Yusuf Zuck’s collusion with the Petty Family. These past few days, the information collected on Yusuf Zuck had been quite detailed, so all his activities in Hong Kong were already on Master Meskill’s desk.
The Petty Family probably also wanted to use Yusuf Zuck to deal with us.
"Dispatch everyone, contact Jace Berger, get in touch with the traffic management center; I want to know where he is, immediately!" Master Meskill had many pawns in the capital, so as soon as a pawn moved, finding Yusuf Zuck’s whereabouts would not be difficult.
Donald Meskill sat back down, resuming tea-drinking with the old master, while others began coordinating with the butler to contact all the other pawns.
About two hours later, around 1:30 am, an urgent phone call came in from the traffic management center.
"His Ferrari was last seen entering the West Mountain Villa." This was the conclusion drawn by an insider based on the Heavenly Eye’s monitoring.
With Heavenly Eye surveillance spread throughout the capital, tracking a vehicle was easy.
"Find out what he’s doing at the northwest villa," Master Meskill continued to give orders.
The butler immediately replied, "If he went to the West Mountain Villa, it must be at Everest Zuck’s home. You’ve heard of Everest Zuck before; he’s from the Guigu sect, subordinate to Jace Berger, and is Yusuf Zuck’s introducer, having very good ties with him."
"Alright, now that we know where he is, let’s go, to the West Mountain Villa!" Donald Meskill stood up and headed out.
Though it was late into the night, taking out Yusuf Zuck was urgent; tonight, he must be dealt with.
After Donald Meskill left the alley, he dove into a Jeep Grand Cherokee, his ride, which was not luxurious but had good off-road capabilities.
Meanwhile, Alvin Escobar and the others got into two vans and hurried toward the West Mountain Villa.
Of course, they were in constant communication with the butler, as the exact address of Everest Zuck’s home was still being confirmed.
At 2 am, the capital was especially cold, and aside from the running vehicles, there were hardly any pedestrians.
When the Grand Cherokee arrived at the West Mountain Villa, they presented credentials—not entrance passes, but work IDs—and then, the group of three cars stopped not far from Everest Zuck’s villa.
Donald Meskill got out, a sword appearing in his hand at some point, and behind him stood twelve people, among them five Truth-Insight practitioners and seven Grandmasters.
Not everyone had come; several experts remained behind in the Meskill Family’s Main Base to guard the fort.
"Is that the red Ferrari?" Donald Meskill saw the red Ferrari driven by Yusuf Zuck, and then moved forward with a smile.
At the same time, Alvin Escobar led eleven people to spread out, approaching the villa in pincer formation to lay in ambush.
