Chapter 1260: Chapter 1260: The Secret of the Blood Bag
Julius Reed’s mind was blank.
A complete blank!
When that warm and moist sensation washed over him, he even thought the woman beneath him was Nelson.
At least, Quella Radcliffe was rarely so proactive.
But…
This damn woman is Elwood Thorneycroft!
What the hell is going on!
Julius Reed abruptly rose to his feet, yanked his arms free from Elwood Thorneycroft’s embrace, and hastily wiped his mouth with his sleeve.
“Ptui!”
He spat on the ground.
His mind was in turmoil!
How could his pure and unsullied self be defiled like this?
The more he thought about it, the angrier he beca.
Aren’t all won supposed to be reserved?
He reminisced about thousands of years ago, when he saw n and won of this world blush even from just holding hands.
Moreover, he was supposed to be playing the role of a flower-thieving bandit!
How had it co to the point where he was the one being taken liberties with?
What kind of world is this!
“Son-in-law, why hide? Co here!”
Elwood Thorneycroft was secretly pleased with herself.
He dared to scare her; now let’s see who’s the braver one!
The thought of how she had just been frightened into losing her composure made her angry.
At the sa ti, she was also curious about how Julius Reed had suddenly transford into the Son-in-law of The North Sea.
Weren’t they sworn enemies?
“Heh, I just wasn’t prepared. Do you think you can get away with this?” Julius Reed’s heart was not willing to give in; he wanted to continue scaring Elwood Thorneycroft.
At least he had to regain so face.
To think she would launch a sneak attack on him.
That’s too much!
“Really?”
Elwood Thorneycroft chuckled, lightly unfastening the buttons of her top.
“Stop!”
Julius Reed turned away, feeling that sothing was not right.
The woman’s attitude had obviously changed a lot from before.
What was it that made her change from fear to being at ease?
Was she certain that he was just bluffing?
“Alright, I’ll level with you.”
Julius Reed turned around and said indifferently, “I am Julius Reed.”
“I know.”
Elwood Thorneycroft let out a giggle, lightly covering her mouth with her hand.
“You knew? Then why did you just get scared like a startled puppy?” Julius Reed raised his eyebrows, clearly not believing Elwood Thorneycroft’s words.
“The ring on your hand is unique. In the whole world, I’m afraid no one could even imitate it.” Elwood Thorneycroft stood up, picked up the bedsheet from the bed, draped it over herself, covering her exposed back.
“Your Holiness, is it interesting? Do you really have to tease ?”
She leaned against the wall, looking at Julius Reed with a half-smile.
“Elwood Thorneycroft, after all, I did save your life, is this how you repay ?” Julius Reed glanced at the ring on his hand and lightly pressed on his temples.
He had actually forgotten about this.
Thankfully those fools from The North Sea hadn’t discovered it, otherwise how could he continue to play this role?
“Admit it?”
Elwood Thorneycroft smiled, closed the window, turned around, and looked at Julius Reed: “Admit that you are the Holy Master?”
“What does that an?”
Julius Reed didn’t like talking to won.
Beating around the bush was too tiring.
It was more straightforward talking to n, fist to fist, until the other surrenders.
“Who told you that I am Elwood Thorneycroft?” Elwood Thorneycroft slowly walked to Julius Reed’s side, her eyes filled with allure: “You just flipped over to check the scar on my back. But if even a face can be faked, would it be hard to fake a scar?”
“You an…” Julius Reed narrowed his eyes, scrutinizing her.
“I am Isabella Warm.” Elwood Thorneycroft said.
“Isabella Warm wouldn’t dare to kiss , so you are not her.”
Julius Reed shook his head and sat down in a chair: “Speak up, how did you end up in Bead Pulse? I believe we are not enemies.”
Back in dicine King Valley, if Elwood Thorneycroft really had the intention to harm him, she would definitely not have left the satellite phone and prescription.
Furthermore, their brief interaction in Gonzalez City was enough for them to gain so understanding of each other.
It could only be said that Elwood Thorneycroft has changed quite a bit compared to that passionate young girl from before.
“Saint Lord, you truly live up to your na.”
Elwood Thorneycroft walked to the door, checked the safety outside through the peephole, and quickly ca back to Julius Reed’s side.
“After leaving dicine King Valley, I was captured by Bead Pulse and taken to Thunderpeak Hall.” Her once playful and relaxed expression was now serious: “Devlin and Granny Xihua were in charge of watching .”
Elwood Thorneycroft took a deep breath to calm her emotions: “The Divine Dragon Tripod was fake. It is said that the real Divine Dragon Tripod is in the Ghost Market of Swimming City. Bead Pulse had impersonate her to co to The North Sea as a ans to deceive the eyes of others. Before we set off, she had already gone to Swimming City personally with Tyler Thomas.”
“Swimming City?”
Julius Reed frowned slightly.
It seed that Isabella Warm had not lied to him back then.
But at that ti, why did she need to capture Tyler Thomas, and use his mouth to convey all this?
She even took so photos inside Thunderpeak Hall, to lead Julius Reed and prove Isabella Warm’s true identity.
“Yes! The Ghost Market in Swimming City. Last night, we parted ways in Star City. Bead Pulse went to et soone, and afterward, she led Tyler Thomas to the Ghost Market in Swimming City.” Elwood Thorneycroft nodded nervously: “What are you doing in The North Sea? This is a den of dragons and tigers…”
As she spoke, she seed to suddenly rember sothing: “The massacre of Mad Dragon rumoured in the outside world…”
“I did it.”
Julius Reed nodded, admitting directly.
His intuition told him that Elwood Thorneycroft was not an enemy.
There was no need to hide anything.
Since she recognized him, if Elwood Thorneycroft wanted to tip soone off, there was no hiding it.
“How were you brought to dicine King Valley?”
Julius Reed suddenly rembered that when he went to dicine King Valley to rescue Nelson, Elwood Thorneycroft happened to be there too.
And the news of Nelson’s capture by dicine King Valley was sent to Julius Reed by Elwood Thorneycroft in a very peculiar way.
Was it a coincidence?
Clearly not.
“Previously, dicine King Valley and Ghost Valley always collaborated. The blood bags of Thunderpeak Hall were stored in Ghost Valley and transported to dicine King Valley through them, in hope of using dicine King Valley’s power to create life-extending pills. However, Devlin later realized dicine King’s ambition and ordered to replace the blood bags, taking the opportunity to head to dicine King Valley to get the formula!”
Elwood Thorneycroft’s gaze grew intense.
“Just so happened, I heard Nelson was captured, so I took a big risk to send you the ssage.”
Saying so, she seed to think she should call in a favor from Julius Reed.
“You saved once in Gonzalez City, I saved your wife once in Ghost Valley, we’re even now.”
“My wife is Quella Radcliffe, don’t talk nonsense!” Julius Reed said irritably.
“A wife is not as good as a mistress, a mistress is not as good as stolen love, all n in the world are the sa dogs!” Elwood Thorneycroft huffed, sowhat displeased.
“The blood bags, who are the blood bags! The formula lists the blood of Isabella Warm.”
Julius Reed ignored these dostic trivial matters and pressed on: “Isn’t it Isabella Warm’s?”
During his ti in the capital, he had contact with people from the martial world and heard through them that Isabella Warm had once given her blood to Granny Xihua to drink while at Thunderpeak Hall.
At that ti, he once thought Isabella Warm had been captured by Thunderpeak Hall and was experiencing inhuman torture.
But as ti went on, it seed not to be the case.
Up until now, Julius Reed did not know whether to be happy or angry.
At least, Isabella Warm seed to be doing well.
But it also might be possible that this beloved maid of his had orchestrated everything four years ago.
“How could the Vein Holder of Bead Pulse possibly be degraded to a blood bag.” Elwood Thorneycroft looked at Julius Reed as if he were an idiot.
