Chapter 577 - Bloodbath in Moscow’s Street
Summer was gorgeous in Russia since it was decorated with greenery everywhere, covering this city, regardless of the city or the outer districts . Aside from the greenery that’s in one’s sight, there were no empty spaces in the city; this was a genuine City of Greenery .
There’s wind in the city, but it wasn’t heavy; rain was plentiful, yet not violent . They came in a timely and perfect manner . The sunshine was gentle .
The air was refreshing and sweet, and most importantly, there’s no haze in the city .
On the second floor of a building, Shui Junzhuo wore white clothes with her hair tied into a flower bud . Opening her window and looking out, it felt as if someone was waiting for her .
“There’s news that the leader of the representative team has recovered, and the diplomatic activity later will resume as per normal . This time, Su Tao has displayed his outstanding medical skills in treating the core official and was also praised for it . ” Yuan Lan, who wore tight-fitted clothes, reported with a sigh as she looked at Shui Junzhuo’s lonely silhouette .
Yuan Lan reached Russia ahead of time to protect Shui Junzhuo since the Shui Family was currently discussing cooperation with a major figure in Russia in regards to technology development . This time, Shui Junzhuo played a vital role in this matter . Hence, many people were paying attention to Shui Junzhuo, trying to ruin this cooperation .
Turning around, Shui Junzhuo smiled . “Got it . Please look after him on my behalf . ”
Looking at Shui Junzhuo, Yuan Lan asked, “Why don’t you go and see him since you’re missing him? No one will stop you here!”
Shaking her head with a bitter smile, Shui Junzhuo replied, “This is my promise to my parents . Furthermore, I’m afraid that I’ll fail to control my emotions if I see him . ”
“According to the intelligence that I’ve received, there are movements from the Dragon Group . If I’m not wrong, they should be here for Su Tao . Then again, they must have other missions as well . ” Yuan Lan sighed .
With a trace of determination flickering through her eyes, Shui Junzhuo took a deep breath and replied, “It’s understandable since Big Brother Qin isn’t someone who’s willing to lose with his character . ”
Nodding her head, Yuan Lan replied, “I’ve already submitted a request for reinforcements, so please be reassured . We will ensure Su Tao’s safety, and at the same time, we will ensure that everything goes well . ”
“Thank you!” Shui Junzhuo returned to the window and smiled . “Others often say that one will gain freedom upon leaving the country . But for me, I was turned into a caged bird with my freedom taken away from me . ”
Glancing at Shui Junzhuo’s silhouette, Yuan Lan inwardly sighed and retreated .
Sitting in a roofless bar with the sunlight blocked by a massive golden umbrella, there’s a plaza nearby where an unemployed person was performing tricks with a football, donned in a jersey . There were several kids around him and they would try to interrupt him, but they were all tactfully dodged by that man, causing the spectators to laugh . This was Moscow during the day, both calm and warm .
Looking at the passersby, Su Tao fell into thoughts . After drinking two cups of vodka, he suddenly felt a little worried . Although Shui Junzhuo helped him with the visa to get to Moscow, she still hasn’t come to find him .

There’s a possibility that she’s trying to avoid him on purpose .
Recalling their last meeting, Su Tao figured out that Shui Junzhuo must have reached an agreement with her family, like an agreement not to meet him for two years .
After Su Tao figured it all out, he felt somewhat bitter in his heart . Regardless of Vera or Shui Junzhuo, they were both forced to distance themselves because of their families .
He knew that if he wanted to change this situation, he would have to become stronger .
“Is there something bothering you?” Jiang Qinghan wasn’t used to the high alcohol content vodka that left a burning sensation down her throat . However, she still tried her best to get used to it and took another mouthful .
“If someone you care about is being locked up by someone else who doesn’t wish for the two of you to meet, what will you do?” Su Tao asked with a wry smile .
“I will find that person at all costs and bring him away with me . ” Jiang Qinghan firmly said .
Nodding his head, Su Tao sighed, “Sounds reasonable!”
He had already made a decision in his heart so his gaze drifted to the plaza . The pigeons here weren’t afraid of strangers and gracefully landed on the ground . Occasionally, they would lower their heads to eat the grains, scattered on the ground by passersby .
Suddenly, the flock of pigeons flew away and Su Tao saw a skinny, yet tall figure swiftly charging in his direction .
Su Tao swiftly reacted and immediately shoved Jiang Qinghan, who was beside him .
Jiang Qinghan also swiftly reacted and rolled on the ground before kicking over a table, toppling it down to be used as a shield .
A gun appeared from that tall and skinny man before he squeezed the trigger without any hesitation . But to his disappointment, the bullets only hit the table .
Sighing out in pity, he swiftly pounced towards Su Tao .
The Nineteenth Dragon had been concealing himself for a long time before he found such an excellent opportunity .
For assassinations, the first attempt had the highest chance of success . If the first attempt failed, the successive attempts would be more difficult .
On the other hand, Su Tao inwardly rejoiced . If he hadn’t been paying attention to the pigeons and his reaction speed wasn’t faster, the assailant would have succeeded .

Who is this person?
Why is this person trying to assassinate me?
Many thoughts flashed past Su Tao’s mind as he glanced at the nearby Jiang Qinghan .
Seeing the concern in her eyes, Su Tao looked down at his thigh before he noticed that he was injured .
In that brief exchange, Nineteenth Dragon shot out two rounds, which one of them hit the table, and the other hit his thigh .
“It’s nothing; it’s just a scrape!” Su Tao tapped on the veins on his thigh to stop the bleeding . However, it wasn’t as simple as he claimed . The bullet was embedded in his thigh, and it had to be removed through surgery .
This was a planned assassination, to which the other party was armed . Although Su Tao tried his best to calm down, he still couldn’t find an opportunity to retaliate .
At the same time, the Nineteenth Dragon was getting closer . He knew that Su Tao was a skilled martial artist from his intelligence, and Jiang Qinghan was also a pretty good fighter .
He never stopped in one position, he was constantly moving to find a breakthrough . The moment there’s an opportunity, he would strike out without any hesitation .
Whenever Su Tao tried to shift his position, there would be a bullet fired that left him helpless .
He knew that this was a formidable assassin!
Although Su Tao had his fair share of life-and-death experiences, he never felt so despaired .
“If there’s an opportunity, you run first . His target is me!” Su Tao calmly looked at Jiang Qinghan .
“Cut the foolish words . We will live and die together!” Jiang Qinghan firmly said, before she continued, “Right now, the only way is to delay him and wait for Moscow’s police to save us . ”
“I have an idea!” Su Tao suddenly said .
“What is it?” Jiang Qinghan asked .
“We will run in two different directions after a countdown . ” Su Tao suggested and added, “This way, we will be able to divert his attention . ”

Inwardly letting out a sigh, Jiang Qinghan agreed, “Alright . I’m afraid that this is the only option available to us . ”
“One… two… three!”
The moment Su Tao finished counting down, he kicked the round table in the direction that Jiang Qinghan was running . However, he did not escape himself .
When Jiang Qinghan landed, she was shocked to realise that Su Tao lied to her .
Her disciple had decided to face this assassin by himself since the beginning .
Although the injury on his thigh had already stopped bleeding, the floor was covered in his blood .
If Su Tao dies, she wouldn’t go up at this moment . On the contrary, she would spend her life to find this assassin and take revenge for Su Tao .
This was the reason why Su Tao wanted her to live .
At this moment, Jiang Qinghan’s vision was blurred by her tears, looking at Su Tao with her fists tightened .
Finally, Su Tao could take a clear look of the assailant . However, he couldn’t see the other party’s face due to the mask .
At the same time, the Nineteenth Dragon was also shocked . He never thought that his prey would suddenly appear before him, exposed .
His lips rose as if he was mocking Su Tao for being an idiot .
However, a variation suddenly occurred .
He felt a chill between his brows, in which he immediately ducked down, dodging a silver flash .
Su Tao also found it a pity that the assailant dodged his needles .
Taking a deep breath, he could only stake it all in an attempt so he pounced at the other party while the assailant was distracted .
Nearby, Jiang Qinghan’s heart also rose to her throat .

Only a true warrior could still launch an attack even though the other party had a gun .
Su Tao was a warrior!
The Nineteenth Dragon was experienced, and just when the two of them were about to clash, he fired two shots in an instant . He knew that the two bullets would definitely hit Su Tao .
But even so, Su Tao did not stop, he still continued pouncing over .
Su Tao was 6’0”, but when he pounced at the Nineteenth Dragon, who was close to 6’5”, he seemed like a kid .
The Nineteenth Dragon felt his wrist going numb and he lost control of the hand that wielded the firearm .
However, he was also experienced in close-combat, in which he suddenly lashed a kick at Su Tao’s lower abdomen .
At this moment, Su Tao was fighting with his life on the line and disregarded the kick to his lower abdomen . So despite the intense pain, he grabbed onto the Nineteenth Dragon’s neck with an arm while launching a jab at his enemy’s lower abdomen .
Instantly, the Nineteenth Dragon felt intense pain in his lower abdomen . He would often feel close to death, but for some reason, the deathly aura he felt this time was so distinct .
Broken ribs…
Squashed intestines…
Penetrated stomach…
The spleen and kidney were both destroyed…
However, his target was still violently brandishing his fist .
Am I really going to die this time? The Nineteenth Dragon thought as he felt weak . He could feel his soul leaving his body .
Su Tao knew that if he wanted to survive, he had to unleash his attacks at all costs . When he recalled Yan Wujin’s guidance on how to use internal martial arts, he triggered all the potential hidden in his body as he fearlessly swung his fists .
Gradually, the Nineteenth Dragon started to vomit blood and his vision steadily blurred before he lost consciousness .
