The old woman and the young woman hadn't expected someone to sneak in without making a sound. Even the henchmen behind them were caught off guard and immediately pointed their guns at Gavin and Yolanda.
Blake hadn't expected them to come to his apartment. He disregarded the pain in his body and shouted at them, "Ms. Henderson? Mr. Savage… Leave now!"
"Are you all working together?" The old woman was stunned for a moment, but upon seeing that there were only two people, she sneered disdainfully. "Perfect! We'll deal with all of you in one go!"
With that, the old woman signaled to the henchmen behind her. "Leave no one alive!"
Gunfire erupted in the next second. However, none of the bullets managed to hit Gavin and Yolanda. They moved so quickly that before the gunmen could even react, the two of them had already knocked the guns out of their hands.
"Who on earth are you?" The young woman was furious. She lifted her hands and charged at them, only to be kicked unceremoniously to the ground by Yolanda.
These people might have been a threat to someone like Blake, but they were completely outmatched against top-level fighters like Gavin and Yolanda.
"How dare you defy the Serpent Alliance? Have you considered the consequences?"
"Serpent Alliance?" Neither Gavin nor Yolanda had ever heard of this gang. It seemed that either the Serpent Alliance was too mysterious or simply too small of a force to attract their attention.
After all, Riverdale was just a small city, and its underground forces were something they had never bothered to pay attention to.
From the conversation between the two women and Blake earlier, they deduced that the Serpent Alliance had been driven out of Riverdale by a coalition of the city's major forces. The gang's leader, Mr. Shaw, wanted to return for revenge, so he sent assassins to kill Zach.
Could the assassins with the green lotus tattoos on their arms be from the Serpent Alliance? Gavin glanced at the arm of one of the fallen henchmen at his feet and then shook his head at Yolanda.
