"What!"
Silvio Reed threw off the covers, hastily put on his shoes, and walked out of the room.
"Are you saying that all the vanguard troops we had at Boulevard Mountain are dead?"
This ti, he was prepared with two plans in mind; either Nelson or rrill Caldwell must die!
The best strategy is to strike the heart!
Julius Reed might have no personal desires, but clearly, the death of his woman would definitely provoke him greatly!
An opponent who is not calm becos much easier to deal with.
Silvio Reed went to the southeast himself because he particularly wanted to kill Nelson.
Compared to Nelson, the effects of rrill Caldwell were less impactful, but if he failed, then Boulevard Mountain would still gain sothing.
But now...
The bad news kept coming!
Complete failure.
"The vanguard troops were well-trained, and every one of them was a strong warrior. How did they fail?"
Silvio Reed’s face was clouded.
He thought Boulevard Mountain would make Julius Reed pay a price.
But now, it seed he had lost everything.
"There’s no outco. Everyone died, and not a single piece of information got out," said Jin Chan worriedly. "What should we do next?"
"Julius Reed got Emperor Azure River’s eyes, and it’s those eyes that allowed him to see through my plan."
Silvio Reed rubbed his temples, "I need to think carefully about how to kill him and get those eyes."
Back then, he obtained Emperor Azure River’s ears, enabling him to foresee hundreds of years forward and backward.
Now, Julius Reed had Emperor Azure River’s eyes...
This forced Silvio Reed to start contemplating.
But at the sa ti, the allure of the eyes of Emperor Azure River was exceedingly strong.
Once he got the eyes, he would be invincible!
"Oh, dear disciple, you always manage to surprise ."
Silvio Reed’s lips trembled.
"What should we do next about the church’s retaliation and Julius Reed’s pursuit?" Jin Chan asked for guidance.
He felt extrely exhausted.
From the beginning, no one expected their plan to fail so utterly.
Not even a single success.
Julius Reed’s woman wasn’t dead, the church’s archbishop wasn’t dead, and even Silvio Reed’s reputation was completely ruined.
"Iwan Martinez is dead. Gather my people, but don’t take any action for the ti being," Silvio Reed regained his usual calm.
"Use the strategy of waiting and watching; observe any actions Julius Reed might take first."
After saying this, he returned to his room.
...
Inside the Lu Family Manor.
Many martial artists who ca for the excitent had already left, but before they left, they signed many agreents with Nelson.
So even left behind elite mbers as a gesture of their sincerity in joining Nelson’s team.
Those Grandmasters who were previously forced to stay and were quite hesitant and struggling internally, imdiately changed their attitude and began to truly support Nelson after seeing Julius Reed return safely.
Iwan Martinez’s corpse was on the city wall.
Silvio Reed’s first round had ended in failure.
Although there were many strong ones present, only one was this domineering and powerful.
Following Nelson was a gamble.
Because what’s coming next is the true test.
There’s a global consensus in the martial arts world: whoever is the strongest is the enemy.
What they need is balance.
The ergence of a monopoly does not fit the interests of the martial arts world!
But as long as Nelson can withstand the upcoming retaliation, he might really beco the final winner.
Once defeated, these sects will suffer along with him.
In chaotic tis, these sects must make a decision.
Neutrality doesn’t exist.
If they do not choose a side, they risk offending all factions and becoming the first target for elimination.
Nelson was busy speaking with various factions and thus did not appear in the courtyard.
anwhile, Julius Reed needed peace after the great battle and dismissed Nine Serenity Monarch, sitting in the back garden, gazing at the lotus in the pond.
For one person, peace is sotis a very precious thing.
Watching the constantly leaping fish and blooming lotus, Julius Reed’s mood suddenly improved.
The deceit and sches in the martial arts world are not only physically exhausting but often ntally draining.
Human interactions are far more complex than simply killing.
But suddenly.
The water on the lake surface fell into an unprecedented calm.
Julius Reed’s pupils suddenly shrank, and he instinctively drew the sword at his waist!
The next mont.
The water surface exploded directly!
A shadow burst out from beneath the water, launching an attack towards him!
Julius Reed swept his blade forward!
Breaking through the water droplets directly attacking him.
"Dragon Dance?"
Seeing the person from the water, Julius Reed was a bit surprised.
He spun his Longsword single-handedly, disarming the weapon from Dragon Dance’s hands.
And Dragon Dance, in turn, spun and landed in his arms.
"After fighting Silvio Reed and then confronting the archbishop, who would have thought you’d be still so formidable."
Dragon Dance smiled, showing no intention of attacking again.
"What do you intend to do?" Julius Reed was quite puzzled.
He sensed goodwill from Dragon Dance and simply pushed her away to maintain a suitable distance.
"Haven’t you always wanted to catch ? Now I’m right in front of you, why hesitate to make a move?"
Dragon Dance was soaking wet, with water dripping from her hair.
Standing before Julius Reed, she was unafraid and even taunted, "Aren’t you going to make a move?"
"No, I won’t."
Julius Reed spread his hands, shrugged, and said, "I don’t understand your intentions."
"You could know," Dragon Dance gestured at her heart, regaining her previous enchanting deanor, "You could hear my heart, know what I’m thinking. As long as you want, you can know."
"I cannot use that ability on you," Julius Reed felt a tingling at the scalp; he truly didn’t know how to handle won.
Especially...
A woman like Dragon Dance, with whom he had a complicated connection.
"After everything I did to you, even handing Quella Radcliffe over to Trent Marsh," Dragon Dance leaned closer, facing Julius Reed, "You don’t want to kill ?"
"Not interested," Julius Reed stepped back, keeping a distance from her, "Leave here. If you still hold hostility toward , then co at . I can assure you, I’ll try not to kill you. But the condition is, don’t cross my bottom line."
Dealing with won, Julius Reed never knew what thod to use.
Won were his weakness.
"What if I won’t?" Dragon Dance walked toward him, "Just say the word that you like , and all my strength, all my subordinates, will be yours."
"Heh," Julius Reed chuckled, reached out, and touched Dragon Dance’s forehead.
It was all wet.
"I don’t know if this is the sa as sweat. Or perhaps, dragons really like water?" He took out the Double Dragon Jade Pendant and placed it on Dragon Dance’s forehead.
As soon as they contacted, Dragon Dance felt dizzy and weak.
Soon, she fell into a deep sleep.
Dragon Dance felt herself falling into darkness.
Nothing around her could be seen.
