Chapter 1417: Chapter 1417: Snow
Do not speak or look inappropriately.
Julius Reed is not a sleazy man; he once had no interest in won whatsoever.
So things, there’s no need to deliberately look at, after all, Gabriel Young’s low-cut dress, as if afraid others won’t see it.
As for whether she’s wearing it or not…
“Do you know about the Night Rose?” Gabriel Young smoothly shifted the topic to the blade without any embarrassnt.
But another hand subconsciously pulled her dress outward.
There was a slight blush at the tips of her ears.
Indeed, as long as one does not feel embarrassed, the only person who can be embarrassed is the other party.
Now, she felt like she’s failed to steal the chicken and instead lost the rice.
“This thing has a unique scent. Most n who sll it will unconsciously experience a faster heartbeat, and the faster the blood flows, the faster they die.” Julius Reed of course knew about it.
Who is he?
A living fossil, a walking library, a mobile encyclopedia.
Moreover, the inventor of this thing seems to be the Night.
Could it be that the Young Family is related to the Night?
“I didn’t find the wrong person.” Gabriel Young broke the blade and leaned it against Julius Reed’s shoulder, “Do you want it… I didn’t before, but now I’ll give you whatever you want.”
Such straightforward words, coming from a graceful young woman, are hard to resist for anyone.
“I’m afraid no one in Swimming City knows that the widow from the Young Family is actually a Martial Artist. Moreover, she’s just one step away from a breakthrough.” Julius Reed pushed her away and added, “I’m not interested in young widows, you can let down your guard.”
If he truly had any inappropriate intentions, this woman would have probably acted by now.
Finally.
When Gabriel Young heard this, her face turned very ugly.
She is a Martial Artist.
The prestigious Young Family, one of the ‘Two Kings Four Ministers,’ thinking of establishing itself in Swimming City, how could it be possible without so capabilities?
Over the past ten years, she had been the target of nurous assassinations.
She also killed many intruders who wanted to sever the bloodline of the Young Family.
It can be said that if not for Gabriel Young, Ambrose Young would not have been able to grow up.
But outwardly, she pretended to possess no abilities, always looking for male consorts.
Now that it’s been pointed out, Gabriel Young’s nerves finally tensed up.
Friend or foe?
If a foe, the trouble may be significant.
“You are the first person to know I am a Martial Artist.” Gabriel Young put away her charm, her expression very serious, “Can you tell how you found out?”
“In this world, there are many things that are destined to have no answers.” Julius Reed pushed the car door open, and the car quickly stopped.
“I’ll stroll around the Ghost Market for a while and co to your room tonight.”
He stepped down from the car, speaking through the car window.
“Okay, I’ll have Ambrose accompany you. If possible, I hope you can help him.” Gabriel Young finally smiled.
The other party is not an enemy.
“Tonight, I’ll wait for you in my room.” She made a flying kiss gesture, then turned her head and took out her phone.
“Ambrose Young, accompany your father around the Ghost Market. Rember, if he suffers the slightest grievance in Swimming City, I want you to go down and accompany your dear dad!”
Having said that, regardless of the reaction on the other end of the phone, Gabriel Young pointed forward, and the driver imdiately drove off.
The Ghost Market is vast.
But their current location isn’t far from the square.
Julius Reed adjusted his clothes and frowned.
There was still a scent on his shoulder.
This woman…
Since Gabriel Young arranged for Ambrose Young to co, he decided to head to the square alone first.
To cooperate with the Young Family, might as well show so sincerity.
Ti was nearing seven o’clock.
“Sir, please wait.” As soon as Julius Reed took a step, a group of people surrounded him from behind.
One of them, wearing a black Tang suit and glasses, ca over with a smile.
“I am from the City Lord’s Mansion, I heard that sir can refine dicines?”
“No.” Julius Reed walked forward, but those people reached out to stop him.
“What do you an?” Julius Reed turned around to face the man in the Tang suit.
“You possess capabilities that everyone can clearly see. However, the affairs of the Cloud Pavilion have already spread throughout Swimming City.” The man walked up to Julius Reed and pushed his glasses up, “Everyone here is extrely vicious and brutal. If you are willing to cooperate with the City Lord, then…”
“Not interested.”
Julius Reed said indifferently, “From now onwards, if anyone dares to stop , they shall be killed without rcy!”
Having said that, he took a step forward!
Sure enough, soone reached out to stop him again!
Crack!
Julius Reed grabbed the man’s arm with one hand and smashed it down fiercely!
The guard of the City Lord’s Mansion imdiately fell to the ground, dead.
Clean and efficient!
It all happened in an instant.
The man in the Tang suit was clearly stunned, then he raised his hand, signaling no more interruptions.
“His strength is sowhat beyond our expectations. Quick, carry the body back and inform the City Lord imdiately!”
With Julius Reed single-handedly killing a guard from the City Lord’s Mansion, many eager martial artists began to hesitate.
Going solo without the backing of a strong group is akin to delivering oneself to death.
No longer obstructed, Julius Reed quickly arrived at the edge of the square.
Suspended in the center, were Solaris Grove and Baylor Davenport.
And standing next to them, was another man.
Manager Ridge of Ghost Market.
“Everyone!” Manager Ridge, clad in white, holding a microphone, looked around then spoke out, “You may have heard that two managers of the Ghost Market were unfortunately killed. And the murderer is right here!”
He pointed to the two people hanging upside down, his voice cold to the extre: “Today, Lord Ghost Seven has set up a contest, and all martial artists may participate freely. The final victor can take one of them away and will also beco a manager of the Ghost Market!”
“Is there such good fortune?”
“With two managers of the Ghost Market dead, there’s a severe staffing shortage internally. It seems Lord Ghost Seven wants to attract talented individuals through this thod!”
“If Finch Jackson and Broxton Leopold wouldn’t die, we wouldn’t stand a chance! This is a once-in-a-lifeti opportunity!”
Upon hearing this, everyone started discussing fervently, their faces full of excitent.
Swimming City has many martial artists.
Becoming a manager of the Ghost Market is their greatest dream.
“I believe everyone is curious about the identities of these two individuals.” Manager Ridge pressed down with his right hand, signaling everyone to quiet down: “The man is the General of The North Sea! The woman, the Princess of The North Sea. Whoever wins the contest can use them to negotiate with The North Sea for sothing in return. What you can get depends on your ability.”
“Great! When does the contest start?”
Soone couldn’t hold back any longer.
The Princess of The North Sea?
Why not take her as a concubine.
“This lady looks fine, I’ve got dibs!” A burly man walked to the square and thumped his chest hard: “Who wants to compete with !”
“I’ll take the challenge!”
Swish!
The crowd heard the sound but saw no one!
Then, a streak of cold light flashed before their eyes.
The burly man’s body stiffened, and his head fell to the ground.
His body fell, and only then did soone notice that a swordsman was standing behind the burly man!
“What a quick sword!”
“It’s Swimming City’s number one swordsman, Defiance!”
“With him stepping in, who dares to compete?”
As the spectators recognized the swordsman’s face, they deflated like a punctured ball.
“Defiance is here, awaiting your challenges!” Defiance held his sword with one hand, his attitude dismissive of all.
But suddenly.
He looked up.
The crowd also looked up.
Snowflakes began to drift down from above!
Snow in June!
