Chapter 166: Clearing the Remaining Enemies

After successfully eliminating Elder Seville and destroying his secret base, everyone felt a bit more relieved.

"Although there are still some members of the Night Blades causing trouble in the city of warding and Starling City, we will soon be able to eliminate all of them. Without Elder Seville's leadership, they are just a disorganized mob."

Irving said with a smile to the group.

Vicky and Anna both wore smiles, while Aron and Benjamin stood solemnly in a corner.

Aron and Benjamin were well aware that the fight was not yet completely over.

Although the majority of the Night Blades members had either been eliminated or had retreated back into the shadows.

Even those remaining members who had not yet grasped the situation, along with families that had colluded with the Night Blades, could still pose a threat to ordinary people.

"Let's split up and act independently. Before dawn, we must eliminate all members of the Night Blades and those who have collaborated with them." Irving instructed.

Under Irving's command, the group began to move separately.

Aron and Anna returned to the headquarters of the Angel Guild. Without the interference of the Night Blades' strong members, the two quickly eliminated all Night Blades members around the ruins of the Angel Guild headquarters.

After clearing the enemies around the ruins, Aron and Anna stood quietly looking at what was left of the Angel Guild headquarters.

Both of them felt a complex mix of emotions.

"It seems that rebuilding the headquarters of the Angel Guild will take a long time. I'm not even sure if we can fully restore it." Anna said sadly.

Aron looked emotionlessly at the ruins of the Angel Guild headquarters and spoke solemnly, "We can definitely rebuild the headquarters of the Angel Guild, and we can rebuild the entire Angel Guild. These setbacks are nothing significant to us. In the war between the Angel Guild and the Night Blades, I firmly believe that the Angel Guild will ultimately be victorious."

Anna looked at Aron. She always felt that Aron must be under a tremendous amount of pressure. "Don't put too much pressure on yourself. The Angel Guild isn't just the two of us anymore. Once the situation has fully stabilized, we can call back all the other members of the Angel Guild. With their help, we can quickly restore the strength of the Angel Guild.

Moreover, we can count on Irving's support in our struggle against the Night Blades. With Irving's help, we are absolutely capable of defeating the Night Blades."

Anna said confidently. Aron simply nodded slowly in response.

In his heart, Aron did not place his hopes on Irving. In his view, Irving was also quite suspicious. However, at least in the current situation, Irving and the Angel Guild had a common enemy in the Night Blades.

Without this common foe, Aron would definitely be wary of Irving.

On the other hand, Vicky and Benjamin returned to the headquarters of Ocean Group.

After reorganizing Ocean Group, Vicky successfully eliminated all traitors within the Ocean Group and the Smith family.

Furthermore, Vicky and Benjamin also managed to eliminate all enemies surrounding the headquarters of Ocean Group.

Donald also returned to the Ocean Group headquarters with Vicky and Benjamin.

He was extremely pleased with his granddaughter's performance during the crisis and deeply moved by Benjamin's loyalty.

"You have truly grown up, and I can confidently entrust the entire Ocean Group to you." Donald said with a smile to Vicky.

Vicky hastily demurred, "Grandfather, I still need your help. My experience isn't very extensive, and I need your advice when facing crises."

Donald looked at Vicky with a kindly smile, "Child, your biggest flaw is that you are too modest, and perhaps also too kind. If you had uncovered your uncle's schemes earlier, you wouldn't have had such a hard time before. However, these two flaws are also your greatest strengths.

As long as you maintain your humility and kindness, Ocean Group will be able to achieve even greater success under your leadership."

Donald's words deeply moved Vicky.

"Grandfather, rest assured. I will continue to maintain these qualities of modesty and kindness. I will manage Ocean Group well."

Donald was very satisfied with Vicky's response.

Donald turned his gaze to Benjamin, "You have proven your loyalty in our recent operations. Although I had planned to pass on the chairmanship to my granddaughter, I will still recommend to her that you be appointed as the manager of the security department at Ocean Group."

Vicky responded straightforwardly upon hearing this.

"I also recognize your loyalty. I share my grandfather's opinion, and I will immediately appoint you as the manager of Ocean Group's security department. Moreover, you will be responsible for managing Ocean Group's guild in the shelter game."

Benjamin was naturally very excited by this development.

He quickly expressed his gratitude to Vicky and Donald.

"Thank you very much, Mr. Chairman, and Joseph for your guidance. I will do my utmost to ensure the safety of Ocean Group and the Smith family after I assume the role of security manager."

Donald and Vicky had no doubts about Benjamin's commitment.

"Alright, we're all family here. No need for formalities anymore. After all this turmoil, my health has completely deteriorated. I am no longer able to manage Ocean Group. From now on, I will leave Ocean Group in your hands and retire to the Smith family villa in the suburbs. Unless it's absolutely necessary, try not to disturb me."

Donald said, fully delegating his responsibilities, having complete faith in his granddaughter's capabilities.

Besides the operations in the city of warding, Irving and Sophia also headed to Starling City at top speed.

Officially, no organizations had survived in Starling City, so Irving had to personally intervene to quickly eliminate the enemies there.

Upon arriving at the secret base of the Green family in the suburbs of Starling City, they were met with gunfire.

"Who are you? Stop advancing! If you continue, don't blame us for being inhospitable," came a warning.

Irving responded with a smile to Sophia.

"It seems the people of the Green family are still very vigilant."

Sophia's expression was slightly embarrassed. She could not tell if Irving's remark was a compliment or sarcasm, so she did not respond.

"Don't be nervous, it's me returning. I can show our Green family token."

Sophia said as she stepped into the light and produced her personal token. Upon seeing Sophia's token, the people of the Green family quickly opened the gates to their secret base.

"So, the young lady has returned! The master is very eager to see you. Please go meet him immediately."

The people of the Green family told Sophia.

"Since your father wants to see you, I'll accompany you to meet him. He should be able to provide us with some additional intelligence."

Irving said as he and Sophia went to meet Jony.

When Jony saw Irving, any residual anger in his heart had largely dissipated.

His urgency to see Sophia was solely because he thought it reckless for her to act alone.

However, if Sophia was acting alongside Irving, there was no need for him to be upset.

After all, Jony had witnessed Irving's strength before.

Moreover, Jony had already entrusted Sophia's safety to Irving.

"So, you are acting together with Irving. I assume you must have nearly eliminated all members of the Night Blades?"

Jony asked with a smile to both Irving and Sophia.

"The strong members of the Night Blades have been killed, and the majority of the remaining members have retreated back into the shadows. However, there are still some stragglers from the Night Blades in the urban area of Starling City. Our next plan is to head to the urban center of Starling City and eliminate all members of the Night Blades there.

Only by doing so can we restore order in Starling City. The situation in the city of warding has already largely stabilized, so we need not worry about that area."

Irving explained the current situation.

Jony nodded.

"It seems I am indeed getting old and can no longer keep up with the thinking of you young people. I should not have initially opposed my daughter's actions."

Hearing this, Sophia was slightly moved. Sёarch* The nôᴠel Fire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

She quickly reassured Jony.

"Father, your concerns were not unwarranted. I did encounter some dangers during my actions. It was only because Irving appeared in time and resolved the dangers I faced."

Jony nodded.

"Since your next plan is to eliminate all enemies in the urban area of Starling City, perhaps I can also offer some help? I am willing to lead my men and join you in this endeavor."

Irving nodded in agreement.

"Your willingness to join us is most welcome. Let's not waste any more time. Let us set out immediately. We must eliminate all enemies in the urban area of Starling City as quickly as possible."

With that, Irving and the forces of the Green family joined together in action and swiftly eradicated all members of the Night Blades and the families collaborating with them in the urban area of Starling City.

However, they only eliminated the enemies visible on the surface.

With the total defeat of the Night Blades, many members of the Night Blades and the families colluded with them chose to go into hiding.

They will undoubtedly continue to coordinate with the Night Blades' efforts in the future. However, after this incident, the families that collaborated with the Night Blades will surely be much more careful and cautious.

Because the Night Blades have demonstrated to everyone that, despite meticulous planning, the operations of the Night Blades can still end in complete failure.
