Legend of Dragon Son-in-law - Chapter 350
Chapter 350: Chapter 350: Dazzling Extravagance_1
The force was tremendous, instantly sending the sentry at the door flying out.
“There are assailants with hidden weapons!”
Following the alarm, all the Skyfire operatives and Hidden Guards within the villa lay flat on the ground.
In such deep night, they could only rely on the sound of the darts to determine a general direction, as for where the person was, that was truly hard to judge.
“What! They’re actually killing people!”
Upon hearing this news, the Saint Heir’s pupils shrank violently, his facial muscles twitching uncontrollably.
“I was previously concerned about saving face, not wanting to fall out with her. But now that she’s insulted my Skyfire time and time again, this is intolerable! Find her people and take them out!”
He roared furiously and strode out into the courtyard of the villa.
At this moment, all the Skyfire operatives and Hidden Guards were crouched in dark corners, not daring to stand out.
Facing assailants with hidden weapons was unlucky for anyone.
“They’re here.”
Julius Reed made a shushing gesture, signaling to immediately stay silent.
On a narrow path not far from them, a succession of faint footsteps could be heard.
Although very slight, they were still unable to escape Julius Reed’s ears.
Lucan Davenport also became aware of the presence of this group thanks to the warning.
Strong indeed, from behind.
“Is this the group sent by that mysterious woman? If we catch these people, could we get some information out of them?” Lucan Davenport asked cautiously, afraid of startling the group nearby.
“It’s useless! With the woman being so mysterious, acting rashly would definitely startle the snake. Besides, think about it, if someone captured our people we sent out, what could they find out? At most, they would get a name like Cold Nelson, but they definitely wouldn’t be able to find Cold Nelson. And when these people are captured, Cold Nelson would notify me immediately.” Julius Reed shook his head, explaining that such a rash move would serve no purpose and only make the woman cautious, thereby wasting all his efforts.
“Right, so we just wait like this?”
Although Lucan Davenport was a Swordsman, his heart was anything but calm.
On the contrary, he even had a bit of an impulsive streak.
“We wait. After all, the performers are not in a hurry, so why should we, the audience, be?” Julius Reed took an apple out of his pocket, along with a fruit knife, and started skillfully slicing the apple.
“Mr. Reed, your peeling technique is truly unparalleled!” Lucan Davenport gave a thumbs up.
Even he had to admit that Julius Reed’s apple peeling was quite charming.
“You flatter me!”
Crunch!
Julius Reed bit into the apple, and everyone froze.
That included Lucan Davenport.
The group was right beneath them, and such a close-range noise could definitely be heard by any expert.
In other words, they were exposed.
“Why are you looking at me?”
Julius Reed continued eating the apple as if nothing had happened, savoring it with gusto.
“Emergency, let’s go!” After eating it in just a few bites, he grabbed Lucan Davenport’s shoulder and flew off towards the distance.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Meanwhile, sounds of darts were emitted from within the Leopold Family villa.
“The fight has begun.”
When they landed a hundred meters away from the Leopold Family villa, Julius Reed and Lucan Davenport stood there, overlooking the melee at the entrance of the villa.
The person who just threw a dart to kill Skyfire has already angered the other side, and now the people sent by the woman probably have no chance to communicate with Skyfire. It’s a straightforward fight to the death.
The sounds of fighting grew louder, while Julius Reed, unbeknownst to him, had taken out an apple from his pocket and started eating it with big bites.
“Mr. Reed, who do you think will win?”
Lucan Davenport asked curiously.
“What do you think?”
As Julius Reed watched the battle situation through his binoculars, he continued to eat his apple.
“I think it should be the woman, but she definitely won’t completely wipe out Skyfire. That would not only offend a religion, but also render her previous efforts futile.” Lucan Davenport began analyzing.
The reason why the woman could make Skyfire’s Truman Ridge submit must be that she has a strong hand!
Even though she’s remote controlling, if she wasn’t powerfully capable, she wouldn’t be able to command respect, much less establish the Boulevard League single-handedly.
“Although that’s true, the woman won’t win and will even suffer a crushing defeat.”
Julius Reed tossed the apple core from his hand and took out his cell phone to send a WeChat message: “Take action.”
“What are you doing?” Lucan Davenport blinked, not knowing when Julius Reed had arranged this move.
“Shouldn’t there be some preparation?” Julius Reed chuckled, patted Lucan Davenport on the shoulder, “Come on, let’s go out tonight for a good time, consider it a reward for your injuries.”
“We’re leaving now? What about here?” Lucan Davenport pointed in the direction of the Leopold Family villa, reluctant to leave.
Julius Reed had set up such a big game, and he really wanted to see it unfold.
But firstly, he was injured, and secondly, Julius Reed didn’t want him to go, so he turned around and gave up on the idea of finding out more.
“We should give the woman and the Saint Heir some time to cool down! In the middle of the night, neither side will act further.”
Julius Reed turned and walked away leisurely, stretching languidly: “Where do you want to go play?”
“Mortal World!” Lucan Davenport shouted, hurrying after Julius Reed.
The two of them did not go to Mortal World but ended up at a place called Drunken Gold.
This is a bar, one of the largest in Five-river Province.
The only other entertainment venue of comparable size is Cesar Pendleton’s entertainment city.
But this place only operates as a bar, and the bar’s owner is rumored to have strong backing – no one in Five-river Province dares to mess with it.
Although many people are curious as to who the bar owner really is, over the years, not a single person has seen them.
Once, a rich young man from the capital thought his family background was substantial. He came here with a group of friends to eat, drink, and be merry, during which he also harassed a girl, leading to a brawl in the bar,
As a result, several strong men immediately came out of the bar and dragged the young man outside, breaking his legs and dumping him on the street without a word.
The young man cursed as he lay there, and his friends all made phone calls, angrily demanding that the bar be shut down.
They stormed in with great fury, but just as they were about to step through the front door, the young man’s father received a phone call that turned his face pale.
He did not dare make any further outrageous moves.
It’s said that the young man’s father personally visited the bar to apologize to the owner, but he never even got to see the owner’s face and was turned away.
Since then, the reputation of Drunken Gold only grew louder.
However, in the recent years, troublemakers have started to show up, and many of the bar’s competitors that had been suppressed began sending people to cause trouble.
The bar hasn’t been as forceful as it once was, more often choosing to act with restraint and seek peace.
“Sir, right this way, please.”
Upon arriving at the entrance of the bar, the staff greeted them warmly.
“Come on! I’ll accompany you for a night of fun, and all the expenses are on me.”
Julius Reed generously led Lucan Davenport inside. He called over the waiter to arrange things and then found an excuse to slip away.
