"Tell me where you're from and who sent you."Sean nonchalantly sat on the couch and said as he looked at the man.The man's body shuddered. Though his eyes filled with fear, he did not speak.Sean raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "Good, I like tough guys who don't like to talk!"With that, Sean slowly picked up the steel tray at his feet and pulled a dagger out of it.The daggers were of good quality. Even though they were thrust into the steel tray, it did not appear to curl or blunt.Sean tossed the steel tray aside and played with the dagger in his hand.The word "Darkness" was engraved on the blade, indicating where these men were from."You're funny to engrave the organization's name on your weapons. Aren't you telling people that you're from Darkness? Or has Darkness evolved to the point where you don't need to be secretive?" Sean said with a smile as he looked at the man.Although Sean spoke with a smile, it looked demonic to the man, and it struck fear into
Titus jumped off the couch when he heard the man's statement.He looked at the man in disbelief and asked, "Are you sure that you were sent to kill me?" And was a member of the Lake family in Janestown who asked you to kill me?"The man nodded noncommittally."Who the f*ck have I offended? I can't believe the Lake family in Janestown sent someone to kill me. It pisses me off. Brother Lennon, when are you going to Janestown? I'll go with you! I want to see who's trying to kill me!" Titus fumed.He never had any contact with the Lake family in Janestown, and having Darkness hunt him for no apparent reason was something Titus could not accept.Sean glanced at him and asked with a smile, "Aren't you being silly? We had just fallen out with Kennedy, and Darkness came to Ocean City. It's mostly because of Kennedy. Who else besides Kennedy and Curtis would want to kill you? I don't suppose the Lake family in Janestown has enough free time to think about you."Titus also calmed down and
"The faction I'm in is the Battle Faction. I'm the leader of the 16th team, and these men are my subordinates. There are 20 teams like us in the Battle Faction. The Battle Faction is mainly responsible for completing missions the organization issued, but I don't know what other factions are responsible for."Sean nodded in reply.He could tell that the guy was not lying.Although the information he provided was simple and even rudimentary, Sean learned a lot of useful information.It was still unknown why Blaze created Darkness.However, Darkness had developed extremely fast over the years under Blaze's leadership. There were eight factions, and the Battle Faction alone already had 20 teams with five members each, which totaled up to 100 people. There were eight factions. Whether there were more or fewer people in other factions, Darkness would have more than 800 people if all eight were the same size as Battle Faction.That did not include any backup or replacement members Darkn
"W-What?"Hearing Titus' answer, Peter's expression changed as he instantly looked at Titus.Titus pointed to the dagger on the couch in the private room and said coldly, "I sat there earlier, and the guy who brought me the wine suddenly came at me with a dagger. If it weren't for Brother Lennon, I'd be dead now! F*ck, isn't Black Gold Bar supposed to be the most secure bar in Ocean City? How could such a thing happen?"No one would feel good for almost getting killed.Titus knew that the five assassins from Darkness had come for him and had struck at Black Gold Bar only because he had come to Black Gold Bar.However, that did not stop Titus from picking on Peter or Black Gold Bar.Although he was not as important as Crystal, the owner of Black Gold Bar, he was still the heir of the Lake family's second branch. Few people in Ocean City dared to mess with him."Well... Why don't you wait for me while I consult our boss, Mr. Lake?" Peter asked cautiously.It was a matter of life
Peter stood outside Sky Room 1 and knocked on the door respectfully. It was as if he was afraid that knocking too loudly would disturb the people inside."Come in!" A melodious female voice rang.Trembling slightly, Peter hurriedly opened Sky Room 1's door and walked in carefully."What is it?" The female voice rang again.Only one person was sitting in the huge Sky Room 1, and it was a beautiful woman.She looked like she was in her mid-20s but was far more mature and stable than her peers.Such maturity and stability should be incompatible with the woman's appearance, but these two things that should be contradictory seemed to go well with the woman. No one could find any fault with them. This woman was the Yorker family's eldest daughter, Crystal Yorker.She was also the owner of Black Gold Bar.Peter hung his head low, not daring to look at the woman before him. He kept staring at his feet."Miss... Five waiters were knocked unconscious in the washroom tonight. The peopl
"Do you know the man's name?" Crystal asked, frowning.Peter immediately said, "Titus calls him Brother Lennon, but I think his name is Sean Lennon if I remember correctly."An excited light suddenly burst in Crystal's bright eyes.Sean Lennon was a familiar yet unfamiliar name."Let's go! Take me to him!"Crystal immediately got up and headed out of the private room.Peter was also dumbfounded to see this. He dared not think much about it and followed Crystal.With Peter leading the way, they soon arrived at Sky Room 2.Before Peter could knock on the door, Crystal suddenly asked, "Peter, how do I look today? Do I look like a tomboy?"Peter looked confused.He was scared to look at Crystal, fearing his gaze would make her think he was observing her.After all, with Crystal's identity, she only had to say one word, and Peter would probably disappear the next day."I asked you a question," Crystal added when Peter was silent.Peter bit the bullet and looked at Crystal.Cry
"This is the owner of Black Gold Bar..." Peter said to Titus and Sean.Titus nodded slightly before looking with a bright glow in his eyes at Crystal, who was walking behind Peter.As the heir of the Lake family's second branch, he had seen many beautiful women, but no one could compare with the heiress of the Yorker family.Whether their looks, figure, or temperament were comparable to Crystal's.Even Titus could not help feeling humble when facing Crystal.Suddenly, another figure occurred to Titus.She was as beautiful as the heiress of the Yorker family but only slightly worse in terms of temperament.That woman was none other than Willow.In terms of looks, Willow was the only woman Titus had ever met who could compare to the heiress of the Yorker family."Miss, this is Mr. Titus Lake. This is Mr. Sean Lennon."Peter said again to Crystal behind him.However, he did not expect a fragrant breeze to pass by him just after he finished speaking. Even his carefully styled ha
"You've changed quite a bit after a few years," Sean said with a smile as he looked at the Crystal before him. The head of the Yorker family had approached Sean long ago, wanting him to take one of the Yorker family's younger children as a disciple. However, when Sean went to the Yorker family, he found that none of the younger generations of the Yorker family could impress him.Eventually, he found that the Yorker family's eldest daughter, Crystal, was so talented in martial arts that Sean accepted her as a disciple. Although Crystal was a woman, she worked harder than most people during the years when she trained with Sean.Hearing that, Crystal smiled faintly and said, "It's to get you to stop calling me a tomboy, Mr. Lennon.""Haha!" Sean chuckled.Crystal's smile also intensified when she saw him.Then, she saw the five assassins in the corner and asked solemnly. "Mr. Lennon, who are these men? I heard from Peter that you were assassinated. Did these men do it?"Sean smile
