Chapter 280: Chapter 280: Beginning of the Night (2nd Update)

“My lord, when the Fountain of Youth was first discovered, it was within an abandoned mine in the City of Sin, and that mine belonged to me! But who would have thought that old Bell and the Poison Scorpion Queen would join forces to drive me away!” As Griffin spoke about this, his eyes were filled with resentment.

“As for how those two people divided the Fountain of Youth afterward, I am not very clear! But I know that the Fountain of Youth isn’t always there, it follows a certain schedule!”

“And the next time it will appear is in three days!”

Griffin repeated all he knew, and Xue An nodded after listening.

“So I think the most important thing right now is to take back the territory I lost before, to weaken old Bell’s and the Poison Scorpion Queen’s forces as much as possible first!” said Griffin.

Xue An glanced at him.

Griffin felt a chill in his heart and quickly lowered his head, “I’m just making a suggestion, everything is up to you, my lord!”

Xue An said indifferently, “There’s no need to rush this. If the Fountain of Youth appears in three days, I will be able to sense it! Once we have the water, we’ll eliminate these people.”

“Yes!” Griffin said obediently.

In the heart of the City of Sin, there stood a black building.

At the top floor was an exceedingly spacious office.

Old Bell was leaning back in his chair, enjoying the city’s nightscape through the floor-to-ceiling windows.

He cherished this feeling.

It was like standing on the clouds, trampling everyone under his feet.

And indeed, this was the case.

His prestige and influence has become the dark King of the City of Sin.

Griffin had fled, and now there was only the Poison Scorpion Queen left.

Thinking of this woman, old Bell slightly furrowed his brows.

At that moment, the office door opened.

Old Bell didn’t need to look back to know it was surely his only son, Xiao Bell.

Because aside from him, no one dared to enter without asking first.

“Father, there’s something I think I need to report to you,” said Xiao Bell, bearing a strong resemblance to his father.

They shared the same deep-set eyes and brows, the same cultured and refined demeanor.

However, Xiao Bell seemed even more rebellious than old Bell.

Old Bell looked at his son with a gaze akin to admiring a work of art.

“Oh? What is it?” he asked.

“Last night, a motorcycle gang near the bar district was wiped out!”

“What’s so peculiar about that? My child, you must know that the number of gangs destroyed each day in the City of Sin is more than my gray hairs!”

“But father, this one is different!” Xiao Bell said as he laid several photographs on the table.

Old Bell picked them up and suddenly furrowed his brows.

In the pictures, a factory was filled with blood and corpses.

“This is…” Old Bell was taken aback.

“Yes, Father, this must be the work of the Sin Scorpion Crew!”

The Sin Scorpion Crew!

The subordinates of the Poison Scorpion Queen!

Old Bell’s eyes flickered.

At this moment, Xiao Bell said with a smile, “And I have discovered many interesting things! For instance, this…”

Xiao Bell took out a photograph that was evidently taken inside a bar.

It showed the side profiles of a man and a woman.

The woman had light purple hair.

“Father, the Poison Scorpion Queen always moves mysteriously, and has never shown any trace. For so many years, we don’t even know what she looks like!”

“But this time… she finally showed her face!”

Old Bell furrowed his brow, “You mean, this woman could be the Poison Scorpion Queen?”

“It’s not that she could be, she definitely is!”

Old Bell’s heart swelled with pride as he looked approvingly at his son.

“So what do you plan to do?”

Xiao Bell smiled like a venomous serpent ready to strike, “Father, the Fountain of Youth is about to appear, and it should rightfully belong to our Bell Family. Why should we share it with a madwoman?”

Old Bell nodded, “Alright, go and do it!”

He understood what his son meant, being the dark overlord of the City of Sin.

Murder, alliances, and betrayal were all commonplace!

“Of course, father, by this time tomorrow, I will present you with this woman’s head!”

Throughout the conversation, the father and son had not looked straight at the man with the indifferent expression in the photograph.

In their eyes.

Apart from the Scorpion Queen, everyone else was insignificant!

The next day.

When the evening lights were just beginning to shine.

Old Stone’s bar once again became lively.

Many people liked coming here to have a drink personally mixed by Old Stone.

Especially since the biker gang had been wiped out, the place had become much more peaceful.

Xue An also sat unshakably at the bar, drinking.

At that moment.

The door of the bar was pushed open, and Wen Sinan walked in with a large cake.

Her action caused many people to pause slightly.

Wen Sinan walked straight to the bar, placed the cake on it, and then began to insert candles.

Xue An frowned slightly, “What are you doing?”

“Of course, it’s a birthday celebration! Don’t you see me putting in the candles?” Wen Sinan said indifferently.

“Celebrating here?” Xue An asked in return.

“Is there a problem?”

Saying this, Wen Sinan flashed Old Stone a smile, “Tonight, all the expenses are on my tab!”

Her words provoked cheers from many people, their fear of Wen Sinan gradually fading, and even some raised their glasses and shouted, “Happy birthday, my girl!”

Wen Sinan was obviously in a good mood, and she smiled lightly, “Thank you!”

She lit the candles.

The music in the bar very tactfully stopped.

The dancing girls also watched giggling from not far away.

In the small bar, the atmosphere became somewhat warm.

“Won’t you even wish me a happy birthday?” Wen Sinan asked.

Xue An regained his composure and smiled faintly, “Happy birthday!”

Wen Sinan laughed heartily, then closed her eyes to make a wish, and blew the candles out in one breath.

Many people started to cheer.

Drinks kept flowing like water.

The night was not yet deep, but already intoxicating.

Wen Sinan drank a lot and even cavorted by smearing cake on many people.

Of course, she also had her face smeared with cake by many people.

And some even went so far as to cop a feel.

But even so, she did not get angry.

Outside the bar, several vans that resembled black beasts were parked, and women in black sat on them.

They were Wen Sinan’s personal guards, the Scorpion Swarm.

Hearing Wen Sinan’s exaggerated laughter coming from the bar.

The women in black couldn’t help but look at each other, and someone inevitably said, “It seems, Her Majesty the Queen is very happy tonight!”

“But I remember, Her Majesty the Queen already had a birthday this year!” someone whispered.

“Shh! Remember, never speak such words to Her Majesty, unless you want to be devoured by a thousand snakes!” someone warned.

While they were chatting and relaxing together.

Countless shadows flew across the sky!

The night seemed to boil over.
