Legend of Dragon Son-in-law - Chapter 286
Chapter 286: Chapter 285: Enemies on a Narrow Path_1
“It does seem like there’s such a thing!”
Bridger Davenport slapped his forehead as if he had suddenly remembered something, “During the exchange with the two special agents, they mentioned this matter in Greek. I didn’t pay attention at the time, but now that you mention it, it seems they were referring to Skyfire!”
“I studied abroad in my early years and have a particular interest in foreign languages. They must have thought I didn’t understand their language, which is why they chatted so recklessly.”
At this point, he hurriedly asked, “Mr. Reed, what is this Skyfire all about?”
“Enemies often do cross paths; eight or nine times out of ten, these people are targeting me!”
Julius Reed’s eyes narrowed, and the intent to kill began to climb steadily on him.
Fifty years ago, the Skyfire Saint Heir sought the “Yin Yang Jade” and clashed with Julius Reed in the Caucasus Mountains, only to be knocked off the mountain by Julius Reed in the end.
After returning, she soon died of her severe injuries.
Half a year later, Skyfire issued a Killing Order, announcing a bounty of one billion US dollars for Julius Reed’s head.
In the next half a month, Julius Reed specifically visited the Skyfire headquarters and extinguished Skyfire by himself.
The Sect Hierarch and Saint Heir, stripped of their clothes, were hung in the grand cathedral of Skyfire, making it the laughingstock of the martial world for a time.
Latterly, it was heard that a new generation Saint Heir was elected as the Sect Hierarch, and Skyfire officially resumed its doctrine.
Now it seems they must have learned of my presence in Five-river Province, thus making such a significant move.
But what must come, always comes. Skyfire also had a hand in the plans to assassinate me back then.
Although I managed to dodge that calamity with my formidable abilities, I lost my memory as a result and have yet to fully recover to this day.
The fact that Skyfire has heard the news means that more people are beginning to learn that I’m not dead.
Up next, there might be a bloody storm.
As Julius Reed’s emotions gradually stabilized, the red light on the ring began to dim, and finally disappeared.
“Mr. Reed, does this matter have something to do with you?”
Having heard everything, Bridger Davenport was also shocked. During this period, he had been speculating about the other party’s intentions.
Why so many Hidden Guards stealthily entered and their security was kept tight. It seemed they were preparing to welcome some prominent figure.
He never imagined that these people were actually targeting Julius Reed.
“Otherwise, do you think these people would agree to Maurice Yarrow’s request? Skyfire wouldn’t take you seriously!”
As he said this, Julius Reed suddenly turned around and thoughtfully asked, “When Irving Harris came with his men looking for trouble, was it you who resolved the situation?”
To make Irving Harris back down peacefully, there must have been a promise of some benefit.
Otherwise, given Irving Harris’s temperament, even if you belonged to Skyfire, you’d have to suffer a loss here.
“Indeed!”
A look of surprise once again flashed across Bridger Davenport’s face, curious as to how Julius Reed knew so much.
“Irving Harris came with his men to the old town area, and it was our boss who stepped in to mediate, promising to kill you within a month. That’s why Irving Harris left with his men.”
“I’ve ended up as a bargaining chip.”
Julius Reed smiled and shook his head, “Maurice Yarrow will be doomed sooner or later. You’d best make plans early.”
“Understood! If Mr. Reed doesn’t mind, I am at your command! During this time, I will try to gather intelligence and convey the news to you as quickly as possible!”
Bridger Davenport knelt on the ground to express his loyalty.
The Think Tank of the Three Blade Group, taking the lead to defect, is probably something Maurice Yarrow could never dream of.
But Bridger Davenport knew very well that these people were no match for Julius Reed.
“Good! First, have someone release Roosevelt Shaw and his family along with us. Once you know the arrival time of the Saint Heir, be sure to tell me immediately!”
Julius Reed pointed at Bridger Davenport, his tone gradually growing colder.
“Please rest assured, Mr. Reed!”
Bridger Davenport bowed deeply, then walked to the door to open it, resuming his previous expression, “This rich second generation is my friend’s son, and he has already been taught a lesson. There’s two hundred thousand in this card, a little token of his apology, give it to the brothers to split! Also, release that family of three, so we don’t create more trouble.”
“Thank you!”
The two men took the bank card, exchanged a look, and then escorted Julius Reed and Roosevelt Shaw, among others, out of the building.
“If there’s a next time, we won’t be so lenient! Keep your mouth shut, or my darts will send you to heaven!”
They didn’t forget to threaten before leaving.
“Of course, of course!”
Roosevelt Shaw hurriedly nodded, “We didn’t see anything!”
After the group walked out of the old city district, they got straight into Miguel Abbott’s car.
Miguel Abbott decided to take the family of three to his own Pearl on the Water, since he was worried about them suffering further harm.
Julius Reed, however, acted alone and didn’t join the others.
Even if he wanted to go with them, the car was too full to accommodate him.
The car slowly drove out from the old building, passed the checkpoint, and then sped towards the downtown area.
But less than three hundred meters from them, a man was aiming a rocket launcher at the sedan that was in motion.
Since the car was still within the old city district, even if blown up, it wouldn’t attract too much attention.
“Hey! Got a light?”
Just as the black man was about to launch the rocket, someone suddenly slapped him on the back.
“Beat it! Don’t you see I’m busy!”
The black man frowned deeply, keeping his eyes glued to the car.
But the next moment, his expression changed drastically, and he turned around to pull out a dart, “Who are you!”
Behind him, unknown when, a teenager had appeared, who was now looking at him with a grin.
“How can it be you!”
After seeing Julius Reed more clearly, his frown deepened!
He had just watched Reed squeeze into that sedan; how could he suddenly appear behind him?
“Why so angry, pointing a dart at me like that is really rude, you know!”
Julius Reed was not the least bit bothered.
“No one can walk away from here alive! You’ve seen our people, if you talk, our plans will be ruined!”
The man chuckled with a sinister smile, as his finger on the trigger gradually applied more pressure, “Die!”
Click!
Just as he was about to fire the dart, Julius Reed stepped forward like a specter, grabbed the dart mid-air, and then forcefully bent it!
“God, are you human or ghost!”
The man’s hand trembled, dropping to the ground.
“Of course I’m a god, but you might be headed for hell.”
Click!
In a blink of an eye, Julius Reed appeared behind the man and quickly twisted his neck, breaking it.
“Skyfire, you didn’t learn your lesson after being eradicated once, seems like I, the Young Master, will have to do it again!”
Looking up at the dark night sky, Julius Reed took out his phone and dialed a short number.
“Hello, this is the Northern-mount Trade Group after-sales service hotline.”
After hearing a sweet customer service voice, Julius Reed coldly replied, “This is the Young Master of the Ten Thousand Mountain Alliance, tell Cold Nelson to see me within twelve hours.”
