I am the Clone of a Death Row Inmate-Chapter 93: Su Ze’s Net Worth

Dongping City, at the airport.

Although the plane landed late at night, the airport was still packed with a crowd of people waiting for arrivals.

These were all citizens of the Dongli Kingdom who had come of their own accord. They held banners and bouquets of flowers, their eyes filled with respect and anticipation.

Written on the banners was: Welcome home, Dr. Liou Wenxin!

As for Mrs. Yun, her identity was rather sensitive, as she was the former deputy director of the Dongli Kingdom’s Secret Operations Department. The Dongli Kingdom had intentionally downplayed her presence to the public, so people only knew her as the Dongli special agent responsible for protecting Liou Wenxin’s safety.

Under the protection of government personnel, Su Ze and the others walked toward the airport exit. The surrounding crowd didn’t push or scream; Su Ze only saw happy smiles on their faces. They were welcoming their heroes home.

That’s right. To the people of the Dongli Kingdom, the patriotic scientist Liou Wenxin, Mrs. Yun who risked her life to protect Liou Wenxin across two countries, and Su Ze who fought for his country and crushed the Luofan Country in the Battle of Adjudication—they were all heroes of the nation.

Just as they exited the airport, a group of vibrant and youthful students spotted them and got incredibly excited. Before Su Ze could even react, his arms were filled with several bouquets of flowers.

One young girl even took the opportunity to give him a quick hug.

"Dr. Liou, welcome home!"

"Dr. Liou, are you going to teach at Dongli University now that you’re back? I’m definitely going to get into Dongli University!"

"Dr. Liou is so beautiful... Oh my god, she smiled at me!"

"Su Ze, I’m a fan of your face!"

"Big Brother Su Ze, do you have a girlfriend?"

"WAAAH, Su Ze, I love you!"

"Su Ze, I want to have your babies!"

Su Ze shook his head helplessly. ’Sometimes, being too handsome makes people overlook my strength. I clearly got famous because of my skills, so why are all my fans a bunch of middle school girls in the throes of their first crush?’

’Not a single male fan!’

’Oh, wait, there was one. The guy who was shouting about having my babies.’

Liou Wenxin’s arms were so full of flowers she could no longer hold them all. She said gently, "It’s very late. Everyone should go home and get some rest."

After that, the group bid farewell to the crowd that had come to greet them and got into the private van that had been sent to pick them up.

The two Saint-level masters, Zhou Wenshan and Li Fayi, had flown off as soon as the plane landed. After leaving the airport, the rest of the group split up and went their separate ways.

Zhang Kun and Wang Hai went home first. A few reporters from the television station arranged to interview Liou Wenxin and Su Ze in a few days, and then they also departed.

Only Su Ze, Liou Wenxin, Mrs. Yun, Mr. Ya, and Zhang Tai were left in the van.

Zhang Tai had stayed behind to arrange their accommodations.

"You all can stay at the guest house tonight, but where do you plan on living after that? Do you need me to make arrangements?" Zhang Tai asked.

Liou Wenxin said, "Just now on the plane, Mr. Zhou invited me to teach at Dongli University. They will arrange accommodation for me there."

She had gone abroad to study in her teens and now had no relatives left in the Dongli Kingdom. Her old family home had been abandoned for many years.

Su Ze was currently living in Gu Chengguang’s small courtyard, but that was just a temporary residence arranged for him; he couldn’t stay there forever. Following Liou Wenxin’s lead, he said, "She’s my sister—we’re even on the same family register. A family’s got to stick together, right? I’ll just live wherever she lives."

Mr. Ya quickly chimed in, "I’ll live wherever my big bro lives."

Mrs. Yun smiled and said, "I don’t have many days left to live anyway. The house my department assigned me is too quiet. Arrange for me to be at the university too. It’ll be more lively."

Zhang Tai sighed and said, "Mr. Gu and the others are already aware of your situation. They’re looking for a solution. I’ll ask about the progress tomorrow."

Mrs. Yun took an eyeball from her pocket—the Tier Five Wondrous Object, the Eye of Dream Weaving. She handed it to Zhang Tai and said, "Please help me return this Wondrous Object to the national treasury. I kept it carefully hidden these past days in Luofan and didn’t let them find it."

Zhang Tai nodded, then brought the topic back. "So you all want to live at Dongli University? Alright then. I’ll talk to Mr. Zhou tomorrow and have him arrange a large house for you."

Su Ze quickly said, "Mr. Zhang, I should probably stay at Mr. Gu’s place tonight. A lot of my luggage is still there. Once the house is arranged tomorrow, I’ll move over directly."

"Alright, I’ll take you there in a bit."

...

Su Ze returned to Gu Chengguang’s small courtyard. He went to the door of the room he was staying in, unlocked it, and walked inside.

After closing the door, the first thing he did was pull open a drawer. He looked at the contents filling it to the brim; this was his entire fortune.

He had left for the competition today, so he hadn’t brought anything with him, leaving all his valuable treasures behind.

Su Ze began to take stock of his assets...

His bank card had a balance of about one hundred million. His Evolutionary Technology membership card had one million points, worth ten billion.

He had two Wondrous Objects: the Tier One Wondrous Object, Traceless Walker, and the Tier Two Wondrous Object: Head of the Wailer.

There was also a vial of an unrated Tier Four extract he had obtained in the Black Rock Mountain Range from a tiger-like mutant beast that had been drained to death by the Spirit Root Tree.

Other miscellaneous items included seven roots of Child Ginseng, ten Tomorrow Flower Petals, and a few drops of Tree Marrow from the Spirit Root Tree.

As for the few other bottles of synthetic medicine like the Strengthening Elixirs, they were negligible.

Su Ze estimated the value of these items and couldn’t help but be amazed. It had only been a month since he broke out of prison, yet he had already amassed such a massive fortune.

’The only reason I, Su Ze, have this fortune today is because I’m a hardworking, diligent, and frugal man... Mom, Dad, sis, uncles, aunties—send money!’

Although these things added up to tens of billions in value, Su Ze understood a simple truth: money and treasures were only valuable if they were used. Otherwise, they were just nice to look at.

’Things I don’t need for now can be invested.’

Su Ze’s first investment target was Mrs. Yun.

Mrs. Yun only had a little over a month left to live. The Tree Marrow could extend her lifespan. While it wouldn’t be for long, it would at least give her a chance to break through to the Saint-level.

Su Ze also had the Tier Four extract. If all else failed, he could give that to Mrs. Yun to absorb first.

With these two items, Mrs. Yun would have everything she needed to attempt her breakthrough to the Saint-level.

He would be sinking resources worth ten billion into this. If Mrs. Yun failed to reach the Saint-level, it would all go down the drain. But investments always came with risks.

It was a risk Su Ze was willing to take. But what choice did he have? He was the one who called her "Mrs. Yun."

If Mrs. Yun succeeded in her breakthrough, the return would be substantial. Su Ze would essentially gain a Saint-level backer.

Although all of Dongli’s Saint-level sovereigns were his backers since he had joined the Dongli Kingdom, people like Mr. Gu held high positions in Dongli and had their own responsibilities. Su Ze couldn’t possibly expect them to do things for him, like acting as his personal bodyguard when he went out.

But Mrs. Yun was different. She was family.

Having made a name for himself in the Battle of Adjudication today, Su Ze understood that he was famous now and could no longer hide.

He was now exposed to the eyes of his enemies. He needed someone like Mrs. Yun to protect him and ensure his safety until he was strong enough to stand on his own.
