Chapter 109: The Raging Waves Bar

"Who is she..." Sophia asked, looking at Irving with a touch of confusion.

Wendy had changed out of her pink bodycon dress and was now wearing a loose t-shirt and jeans. Even in such casual attire, it was still obvious that she was a stunning beauty.

A complex expression flashed through Sophia's eyes. She had never seen this woman before.

"She is my personal bodyguard." Irving introduced, "Her name is Wendy."

Sophia was slightly taken aback, and the complexity in her eyes deepened. She had witnessed Irving's strength firsthand. Even in the dangerous Other World, this man had always managed to get out of life-threatening situations multiple times.

Someone like him actually needed a bodyguard?

Could it be...

"Irving, don't worry, I won't tell anyone about this." Sophia quickly said, as if she had realized something. But when she looked at Wendy, a trace of hostility flashed in her eyes. seaʀᴄh thё ηovelFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Irving was speechless.

However, he did not intend to disclose that Wendy was ranked among the top 100 international assassins.

Although Wendy had not yet secured a spot in the Other World Game, she had been subjected to the rigorous training of an assassin organization from a young age. She was proficient in combat, firearms, and various assassination techniques.

No one could imagine that beneath her beautiful exterior lay the true identity of a professional killer.

In an increasingly turbulent future, she would become a crucial card in Irving's hand. Many shady tasks could be entrusted to Wendy.

"Alright." Irving frowned, "Time is running out. Let's get in the car and talk on the way."

It was already seven o'clock in the evening. There were only thirty minutes left until the time agreed upon by the kidnappers of Jony.

...

Night had fallen.

At the Raging Waves Bar, dynamic music filled the hall. Countless young men and women were drinking and partying. On the central stage, several sexy beauties were dancing, and cheers erupted from the crowd below from time to time.

Inside the bar, a hidden staircase led directly to the upper floor. However, two tattooed men stood guard at the staircase entrance.

On the second floor, there was another spacious hall that was not in use. The area lacked decoration, and a few concrete pillars stood in sight, creating an oppressive atmosphere quite different from the lively scene downstairs.

"Why isn't she here yet?" A bald man asked as he and about a dozen other tattooed men surrounded a sofa in the hall.

On the brown sofa, a middle-aged man was smoking a cigar. Amidst the swirling smoke, he squinted his eyes, staring intently at Jony, who was tied to a chair in front of him. His face was dark with anger, as if it could drip water.

"Addison, you backstabbing bastard! I must have been blind back then." Jony, who was tightly bound and blindfolded, roared angrily.

A few years ago, the Fox family had been an obscure small family in Starling City. If it hadn't been for their connection with the Green family, they might have been swallowed up by other families already.

"Traitor!" Jony shouted.

He was filled with deep regret. Considering all that had happened recently, he felt a profound sense of sorrow.

Following two devastating strikes, the Green family had suffered severe losses. Not only were the players from the guild established by the Green family almost entirely wiped out, but many family members were also killed. Now, Jony was left with only his daughter, Sophia.

Addison's face grew darker, and with a wave of his hand, the bald man by his side stepped forward aggressively.

"Old man, you're in our hands now, and yet you still dare to talk tough?" The bald man raised his fist and swung it fiercely into Jony's abdomen.

Thud, thud, thud... the dull sounds echoed.

Moments later, already battered from the previous night's battle, Jony felt as if his internal organs were boiling. Then, a gush of fresh blood spurted from his mouth.

Even so, his gaze was still fixed on Addison, filled with anger, "Traitor! You won't end well, our Green family..."

Before he could finish, the bald man delivered another fierce punch.

Thud!

Jony spat out another mouthful of blood, his face pale as paper after the beating.

"You and the Green family?" Addison slowly rose from the sofa, sneering, "You still think the Green family is one of the top families in Starling City? Wait till your precious daughter arrives. Then, you can reunite underground."

"You dare..." Jony seemed to realize something, but he was beaten so severely he couldn't even finish his sentence.

"Only ten minutes left now," Addison said, glancing at the time. His grim expression turned to one of disappointment, then continued, "It's a pity your precious daughter doesn't seem to care about her father's life."

The bald man glared at Jony, then moved back to Addison's side.

"Addison, I say we just finish off this old man. The Green family is nearly done for anyway," the bald man continued, "Once he's dead, that Sophia won't be able to stir up any trouble."

The Green family owned substantial assets in Starling City, and if Addison could take over those assets, he would become the top family in the city.

People have two hearts: one for greed and one for discontent.

Addison's ambition was great. He was not content to remain a subordinate family to the Greens. That's why he chose to become a pawn for the Night Blades, betraying them during last night's secret realm exploration.

He had thought he could annihilate the Green family in one fell swoop, but unexpectedly, a young man appeared and wiped out the Night Blades team sent by him, even Lord Vite perished in the magma.

Recalling the events of the previous night, Addison couldn't help but shudder. If he hadn't sneakily escaped during the battle between the two groups, he might already be dead.

"Don't be hasty, let's wait a bit longer." Addison said with a grim face.

Shortly after leaving the secret realm, he learned through backchannels that someone had obtained the legacy treasure from the realm, and that person was likely the young man who had appeared last night.

He could also tell that Sophia's relationship with that young man was not simple.

He was gambling!

Addison was betting that Sophia wouldn't simply watch as her father was mercilessly killed. As long as she could bring the legacy treasure, the Fox family could not only leap to become a top family but could even dominate Starling City.

Even if the gamble was lost, it didn't matter. They could just wait for the time to elapse and kill Jony. The Fox family could still profit…

Meanwhile.

Inside the noisy bar, a woman in black high heels, exuding sensuality, slowly made her way towards the staircase leading to the second floor. Her cheeks were slightly flushed, giving off the impression she was intoxicated.

"Sorry, miss, you can't go up there." said one of the tattooed men guarding the door, as they exchanged glances.

They then eyed the sexy woman from head to toe, their looks carrying a hint of a lewd understanding exclusive to men.

"Where's the restroom, handsome?" asked the sultry woman, her enticing eyes teasing them as her body started to sway. She leaned against the wall nearby. "I feel a bit dizzy. Could you guys help me get there?"

"Well..." The two tattooed men hesitated for a moment, but upon seeing the seductive figure of the attractive woman, they couldn't help but feel a stir in their hearts.

In the bar, it was rare for drunken girls to approach them so openly - a perfect opportunity to take advantage of the situation, perhaps even leading to something more intimate.

After all, every young person who comes here seeks to indulge their desires.

The tattooed men smiled knowingly, their eyes lingering on the slender waist of the sexy woman, preparing to step forward and offer support. But in the next moment...

"My head is spinning..." The sexy woman rubbed her temple and suddenly leaned towards the two men.

Seeing this, the smiles on the tattooed men's faces deepened, their guard completely lowered.

As the taller tattooed man took a step forward to catch the alluring woman in his arms, he failed to notice the slight smile playing on her lips.

Snort

In a swift motion, the first tattooed man's body suddenly shuddered. He felt a chill at his chest, and his smile froze instantly.

"You..." The other tattooed man sensed something was amiss, only to see a flash of cold light.

They never would have dreamed that the apparently intoxicated sexy woman was so agile, and in her hand appeared a sharp dagger.

In just moments, the dagger had pierced through the chests of both men.

In the dim, noisy bar, none of the reveling young men and women took notice of the scene by the secluded passageway.

The sexy woman was none other than Wendy, for whom such a maneuver was child's play given her career as a professional assassin.

As the two tattooed men clutched their bleeding chests in horror, Irving and Sophia suddenly appeared by their side.

At this moment.

On the second floor of the bar, the bald man and his dozen subordinates heard footsteps approaching. As they looked towards the entrance, several figures appeared there.

"Who the hell let you up here?" the bald man barked, spotting the two tattooed men.

But in the next moment, the two tattooed subordinates collapsed to the floor, blood gushing from their chests like fountains, the pungent smell of blood permeating the air.
