Vicky's shout gave Irving a reminder.
Irving imdiately followed up with Elder Seville, "No matter what, you'd better hand over Donald first. Otherwise, I won't be polite with you."
Elder Seville seed very impatient with the sudden appearance of Vicky and Benjamin.
"These two weaklings can actually participate in a conversation between you and ? Don't you think that's very unusual?"
Elder Seville was a very rigid person who greatly valued hierarchy.
In Elder Seville's view, only those with similar strength to his own were qualified to speak to him on equal terms. Those who were weaker didn't even have the right to talk to him directly.
In response to Elder Seville's words, Irving coldly replied.
"I don't care what you think. I see nothing wrong with what they're doing. I'll say it one last ti, hand over Donald imdiately."
Irving's tone had already grown slightly impatient.
Irving felt there was no need to waste any more ti with Elder Seville. He was always worried that Elder Seville might be deliberately stalling for ti.
A slight smile appeared on Elder Seville's face.
"Young man, it seems you still don't trust at all. But I'm not very surprised, considering the terrible impression the Night Blades have left on you."
With that, Elder Seville stepped aside a few paces, revealing Donald in the study to Irving and the others.
The mont Vicky saw Donald, she intended to run directly toward the study.
Irving quickly pulled Vicky back.
"You need to stay calm! Your grandfather doesn't seem to be in imdiate danger! If you act rashly now, you'll just give our enemies more leverage."
Although Vicky felt that Irving made a lot of sense,
Given that her grandfather was currently in a very dangerous situation, Vicky naturally wanted to rescue him as quickly as possible.
After holding Vicky back, Irving coldly said to Elder Seville,
"Donald seems to be physically fine. Since you haven't hard him, I won't be your enemy.
If you leave now, I won't make things difficult for you. But if you insist on opposing , don't bla for being ruthless. You should know that everyone in the Night Blades who has opposed is already dead."
In the face of Irving's ultimatum, Elder Seville's expression did not change at all, maintaining his previous smile.
"Of course, I can hand over Mr. Tang to you. I can even give you Joseph, who isn't far outside the door. But on the condition that you et my demands."
Elder Seville was still trying to bargain with Irving.
Irving's patience was nearly exhausted. He felt that the other party was deliberately stalling, so he had decided to act directly against him.
But before he could make a move, Vicky shouted, "What are your demands? As long as you can ensure my grandfather's safety, I will agree to any condition."
Vicky's words caught Irving off guard.
However, Irving was also curious to hear what the other party's conditions were.
After all, Irving didn't know much about the Night Blades yet.
Although Irving knew that the Night Blades were an international organization, and they seed to be constantly trying to overthrow governnts worldwide, their true objectives seed far more complex than they appeared on the surface.
Elder Seville looked very pleased.
He nodded heavily, saying, "As expected of Donald's granddaughter, you have indeed inherited Donald's decisiveness! And your father's wisdom as well!"
"Stop wasting ti and state your conditions! I will fulfill them as quickly as possible!"
Vicky was naturally disdainful of Elder Seville's flattery.
She had always focused on doing her best, and she didn't care too much about what others thought of her.
"My condition is very simple: I need you to co with to find the treasure hidden by the Smith family." Elder Seville finally revealed his demand.
Hearing this condition, both Irving and Vicky were stunned.
Vicky asked with a hint of confusion, "What do you an by the treasure hidden by the Smith family? I have no idea that our Smith family has any hidden treasure!"
Irving could tell that Vicky was not lying.
He was very familiar with Vicky's way of speaking; if she were lying, she wouldn't be able to pull it off so convincingly.
Vicky's response made Elder Seville burst into laughter.
"Hahaha, Miss Vicky, surely you must be joking? I must remind you that joking with cos with great risks."
As soon as Elder Seville finished his sentence, Irving coldly responded, "Should I take what you just said as a threat? Do you really think I would be afraid of you?" ҽҳрƹ#г*ί-е$пς!ƹ-#
"Young man, don't underestimate my abilities. While I may not be able to eliminate you quickly in a battle here, I am confident I can take out Donald and Vicky.
Do you think you can ensure their safety while fighting ? Surely, you are not that arrogant?"
As soon as Elder Seville finished speaking, he clasped his hands together again and then pointed behind him with his fingers.
Benjamin's screams echoed from outside the study.
"Did you really think I was a fool? You two distract in the front, while that idiot outside tries to rescue Donald.
It's laughable you ca up with such a plan. If Irving had gone to rescue Donald, it might have succeeded. But swapping him for the young man outside the study window? That's absolutely impossible."
Elder Seville smugly said to Irving and Vicky.
The reason Benjamin appeared outside the study window was that he thought he should rescue Donald while Elder Seville was distracted.
Irving had noticed Benjamin's plan, but he didn't object because he thought if Benjamin succeeded, he wouldn't have to waste any more ti with Elder Seville.
"Irving, I now have more leverage. I can not only take Donald and Vicky's lives, but I can also take the life of the young man outside the study window.
You must decide imdiately whether to join in searching for the treasure hidden by the Smith family. You need to give an answer right now."
Irving's cold expression gradually changed, his mouth curved into a smile.
"It seems I have no choice but to cooperate with you."
"So your answer is?"
"I am willing to go with you to find the Smith family's hidden treasure. But I have no idea what this treasure is; I didn't even know such a treasure existed. Where should we begin our search?"
Irving thought that obtaining the Smith family's treasure wouldn't be a bad thing for him.
If the Smith family treasure was very valuable, he could simply hand it all over to Vicky once they found it.
Elder Seville nodded in satisfaction.
"As long as you are willing to cooperate with , that's enough. Now, please bring Miss Tang to the study. I believe Donald will be more than happy to tell us about the Smith family treasure."
After saying this, Elder Seville imdiately returned to the study.
Although Vicky knew Elder Seville was extrely dangerous, she still headed to the study as quickly as possible.
When Irving and Vicky entered the study, they found Donald seemingly in a deep sleep.
"You hypnotized my grandfather?! Don't you know this could have a significant impact on his health?!" Vicky shouted angrily at Elder Seville.
Elder Seville replied calmly, "Miss Tang, I hope you can stay calm. Your grandfather is not in any danger. I will wake him up imdiately."
With that, Elder Seville snapped his fingers.
Sure enough, Donald woke up from his deep sleep.
Upon seeing the sudden appearance of Vicky and Irving, Donald looked extrely surprised.
"Why are you here?! You need to leave imdiately; the Night Blades have already taken control of the Smith family villa!"
After saying this, Donald noticed the helpless expressions on Vicky and Irving's faces.
After a brief mont of thought, Donald understood the current situation.
Donald turned his gaze to Elder Seville: "If I don't tell you the clues about the Smith family treasure, will you kill them?"
"As long as you give the clues, that's all I need. If you refuse to tell , I might take such actions. However, Irving is strong enough; you might hope he can defeat in battle."
Elder Seville spoke with great confidence.
Although Elder Seville kept emphasizing Irving's strength, he was not afraid of Irving.
In fact, Irving always felt that Elder Seville was subtly encouraging him to attack.
Upon realizing this, Irving beca even calr than before.
Donald coughed twice and said helplessly.
"That's not necessary! While Irving is indeed very strong, I won't let my granddaughter take such a risk!"
Donald said this while looking warmly at Vicky.
Tears welled up in Vicky's eyes, and she said with difficulty, "Grandfather."
Donald then turned his gaze to Elder Seville: "If you really want to find the Smith family treasure, I must give you a warning in advance.
The Smith family treasure is hidden in a very dangerous place. Even if you find it, you may not be able to obtain it. Even if you do get the treasure, you might face bad luck."
