Legend of Dragon Son-in-law - Chapter 310:
Chapter 310: Chapter 309 Turmoil in Wujiang_1
“Ah…”
Sheridan Isolde shook all over in pain, his body convulsing as he leaned against the table in agony.
Under the enormous force of Julius Reed, the steel fork ruthlessly pierced through his hand bone, puncturing Sheridan Isolde’s arm straight through.
Ashwin Lake took a sharp breath in, and the alcohol completely dissipated from his system.
What kind of ruthless person was this?
Luckily, Dominating Tiger was already on his way, or he would have run off long ago.
Mingling in Gonzalez City for so long, yet it was his first time kicking an iron plate.
“I’m going to kill you!”
Sheridan Isolde was dripping with cold sweat, and his face turned deathly pale in an instant.
He took a few deep breaths, his head trembling non-stop due to the severe pain.
“This meal has been rather disappointing.”
Julius Reed paid no attention to his threat, instead turning to Anna Harris: “Let’s go back, it’s too noisy here.”
“Mhm!”
Anna Harris nodded, casting a bitter look at Sheridan Isolde, and walked towards the door with the help of two young nurses.
“You all wait…”
Clang!
Before Sheridan Isolde could finish his sentence, Julius Reed drove the second steel fork down again, nailing his other hand to the wooden table.
The intense pain caused Sheridan Isolde’s vision to darken, and he fainted on the spot.
“I…”
As he reached the doorway, Ashwin Lake’s facial muscles twitched uncontrollably, and his speech began to slur.
If he had known that such a ruthless person was sitting inside the private room, he would not have dared to come even if given the courage.
“Ten minutes, your boss still hasn’t arrived.”
Julius Reed glanced at his watch and waved his hand: “Take the two ladies out first.”
The nurses immediately pushed the wheelchair, escorting Anna Harris out of the private room, and Quella Radcliffe left quickly with a glance.
“Sir! Please don’t hold this against me.”
Ashwin Lake had never been so cowardly in his life.
He was not dealing with a human, but a monster!
None of the full room’s staff who were beaten could stand up.
“Whose idea was it?”
Julius Reed asked coldly, hands clasped behind his back.
Even without seeing his face, Ashwin Lake felt an inexplicable pressure.
“He…”
Ashwin Lake pointed at Sheridan Isolde, stammering: “It was all… all this guy’s idea, said his ex-girlfriend was in this room, asked me to help vent his anger…”
“Very well.”
Julius Reed nodded, then without warning lashed out with a kick!
Crack!
This kick landed directly on Ashwin Lake’s knee, instantly causing him to sustain a comminuted fracture in both legs.
“Tell Dominating Tiger to come find me.”
After leaving those words behind, Julius Reed walked away from Twilight Mansion with his hands still clasped behind his back.
“There won’t be any trouble, will there?”
Anna Harris asked worriedly as she waited at the door.
Sheridan Isolde’s family was very wealthy, involved in the construction business. As for Ashwin Lake, just by his bearing, it was obvious he was no good.
If they really got into trouble, it would likely be difficult to deal with.
Moreover, Anna Harris was unaware of Julius Reed’s background and capabilities, and even Quella Radcliffe only partially understood.
But at least Quella Radcliffe was still clear that both Aron Jackson and Ovidiu Cook treated Julius Reed with utmost respect. To be able to suppress the leaders of both the underworld and the righteous path was enough to illustrate the point.
“What’s there to worry about? If there’s trouble, I’ll just run away! To a foreign country!”
Julius Reed joked.
The cars were already waiting at the entrance, and after the three of them boarded the two vehicles, they headed in the direction of home.
Because she was taking care of Anna Harris, Quella Radcliffe was not in the same car as Julius Reed.
As soon as they drove out of Twilight Mansion, a call from Red Widow came through.
“Janet Carmichael has started talking.”
This first sentence clenched the hand that Julius Reed held his phone with tightly.
Over the past three years, he had almost completely forgotten the memories associated with the rebellion; even what he could recall were fragmented and scattered pieces.
The only useful information was knowing that Janet Carmichael was involved.
“Speak.”
“Among those involved in the rebellion were the leaders of Nexus border, Ayden Woody, and of the eastern wing organization, Archibald Sterling. There are too many others involved; I will send you the full list later.”
“Are you certain it’s reliable? Could Janet Carmichael be indiscriminately accusing anyone?”
“Please trust me, esteemed Young Master. My, Red Widow’s, interrogation methods are flawless! However, there are likely many uncertain parties involved. For example, the two leaders just mentioned; what Janet Carmichael said pertains to their subordinates. She is unclear on how their superiors think.”
“Keep Janet Carmichael under tight surveillance. I’ll return in a day or two.”
Julius Reed’s expression was grave.
The guard camp that belonged to the Ten Thousand Mountain Alliance was responsible for the security of the sacred temple and was deemed the personal guard of the Young Master.
The entire guard camp was divided into the east, west, south, and north branches. Although their strength was not that formidable, they were indeed the four most valued organizations.
And now, two branches had been involved in the rebellion. Cold Nelson was unwaveringly loyal, while the people from West Mountain Residence were currently in an uncertain state.
“After treating you all so well, I never imagined the story of ‘The Farmer and the Viper’ would actually come to life around me.”
Julius Reed shook his head and leaned back in his seat to close his eyes and rest.
Now his power had greatly increased, and even though he had not returned to his peak, he was still more than capable of handling these enemies.
The only reason he held back and had not dealt with the internal strife was that he had not been able to ascertain the loyalty of his staff.
During that rebellion, more than half of the people had participated, and it would not have been possible without the help of someone close to him, leading to his loss of memory and a significant decline in his cultivation.
But with damaged memory, he could not identify those who were involved in the rebellion, and even if he reorganized the Ten Thousand Mountain Alliance, it might still end up as loose sand.
“Janet Carmichael, what other secrets do you still hold?”
Julius Reed tried to recall, but that segment of memory was like being locked in a cage, always out of reach.
Each time he was close to touching it, his head would throb with unbearable pain.
Luckily, not many people knew that he was still alive, and those who did were loyal to him.
Such was the case with Janet Carmichael, who only knew because he had released the information; otherwise, she would have remained in the dark.
Thinking this, Julius Reed suddenly opened his eyes.
If the people from Ten Thousand Mountain Alliance were unaware, then why would Skyfire have targeted him this time?
Skyfire was a foreign organization, completely ignorant of his whereabouts.
What was the purpose of the Saint Heir traveling thousands of miles to Five-river Province?
If Skyfire was prompting such an important figure to move, the force behind it must be significant.
With this thought, he dialed Cold Nelson again, the most loyal leader of his guard camp.
“Young Master, Skyfire has been very active recently. If I’m not mistaken, the Saint Heir’s arrival should be within the next day or two. I’ve prepared my men, and as soon as they land, I’ll capture them all!”
The phone conveyed Cold Nelson’s confident voice.
As a part of the Ten Thousand Mountain Alliance guard camp, eliminating an organization was not a problem.
“Don’t kill them yet! Keep a close eye on them, see who they meet and what they’re up to!”
Julius Reed narrowed his eyes. “I was attacked today, and I feel it may be related to these people. The legendary master who is elusive as a dragon could very well be connected to Skyfire.”
Unless it was a coincidence, there was simply no other explanation for the Saint Heir’s imminent arrival in Five-river Province.
“Understood!”
Cold Nelson suddenly spoke up. “Recently, it’s not just the Saint Heir; a group of Shadow Warriors has quietly gathered in Five-river Province with an unknown purpose.”
