sure Quella Radcliffe was covered with the blanket, he drove straight to the Ridge Family home.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He arrived at the gate at 6 in the morning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back in Five-river Province, the Ridge Family had already betrayed him!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ever since the battle at the snowy mountain, Julius Reed had zero tolerance for traitors!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially the likes of the Ridge Family, who had benefitted from his kindness for years, yet still thought about stabbing him in the back?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was time for him to reclaim everything he had once given to the Ridge Family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Willson Group had lain dormant for so long; it was time to step into the spotlight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, at this moment, Truman Ridge was oblivious to the looming danger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was immersed in the joy of extended longevity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wealth?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had long lost any concept of it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Being born with a silver spoon in his mouth, he already had more money than he could ever spend.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the desire for life…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who wouldn’t want to live forever?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though birth, aging, sickness, and death are part of human nature, in the face of death, everyone has an instinctual fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A loud explosion made him tremble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What’s happening!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Go outside and check!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sound came from the direction of the gate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had just seen off the Elders Victor and hadn’t sat down for even twenty minutes before something happened?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At his command, several bodyguards quickly rushed out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But once they were gone, there was no sign of them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Go have a look!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He gestured to his butler: “Hurry!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everything had been so calm, why were there sounds of an explosion?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This place was remote and very quiet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>ɴ0νǤᴑ.сο\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was like a hidden paradise, unknown to outsiders that there was a large compound inside!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A very spacious compound!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Ridge Family was so wealthy that they could hollow out a mountain and build a mansion underneath, storing countless treasures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Half a minute later, footsteps approached.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Did you find out what happened?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elders Victor had visited at 4 in the morning, and Truman Ridge was now a bit sleepy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was getting on in years and his energy was not what it used to be.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s been checked.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A voice came from the door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If it’s been checked, then say…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Halfway through his sentence, Truman Ridge suddenly looked up!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, his body jerked as if he had been electrocuted!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The person responding was not the butler who had left earlier!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was Julius Reed!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the Longsword in Julius Reed’s hand, dripping with blood, Truman Ridge felt a surge of fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Reed, you…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was at a loss for words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let’s have a chat!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed tossed the bloodstained Longsword onto the table, picked up the teapot, and poured two cups of tea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He pushed one cup toward Truman Ridge and raised the other to his lips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He took a clear sip.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rising early and driving had indeed made him thirsty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once, he had been free of earthly desires.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unbound by mortal sustenance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But living with Quella Radcliffe these past few years, he had become like an ordinary person again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, the main reason was that Julius Reed felt that only by living this way could he truly be human,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rather than a monster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But how could Truman Ridge have any desire to drink tea?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The last person he wanted to see was Julius Reed!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just an hour ago, in this very room, he had asked Elders Victor to kill Julius Reed once and for all!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only then could he live in peace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A group of bodyguards rushed in from outside,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Along with other early risers from the Ridge Family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s you!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Julius Reed, the Ridge Family members were all shocked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was in the Ridge Family’s main hall that Finnian Ridge had his face scalded by Cosmo’s hot water.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And afterward, unable to cope, he committed suicide.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, seeing their enemy, their eyes burned with hatred!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You still dare to come?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Ridge Family glared at Julius Reed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I am here to talk to Truman Ridge, please wait outside.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed said indifferently, holding a teacup.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“In my Ridge Family, you dare to…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Ridge Family member hadn’t finished speaking when the teacup in Julius Reed’s hand suddenly flew out!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It struck the speaker right in the forehead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thump!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The person who was alive just moments ago now lay on the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Turned into a corpse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Leave before I lose my temper.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed picked up the second teacup, scaring the Ridge Family members to immediately back off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Reed, perhaps there has been a misunderstanding…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Truman Ridge, having experienced much of the world, regained his composure quickly after a brief moment of shock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He discreetly made a gesture, signaling his clan members to find the informants left by the Elders Victor and report the incident at once!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, Truman Ridge himself stayed to drag out the time here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“A misunderstanding?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There’s no misunderstanding.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed looked at the teacup in his hand and chuckled lightly, “This tea, it must cost several millions to obtain, doesn’t it?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Quite so…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Truman Ridge’s throat moved, speaking with a slight embarrassment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Stretch out your hand.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed put the teacup back on the table and looked at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Where could Truman Ridge dare to refuse at this point?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He obediently placed his hand on the table.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed abruptly lifted the Longsword and chopped off his right hand!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blood instantly spurted out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hiss…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Truman Ridge’s body trembled, convulsing as if electrified.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pain!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The agony of a severed hand!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Bandage it simply, you won’t die immediately.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed took out a bottle of medicine from his bosom and lightly sprinkled it on the wound.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bleeding actually stopped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the pain grew even more intense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at the severed hand on the table, Truman Ridge’s eyes turned bloodshot, and his mouth trembled continuously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, his breathing became more and more rapid!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he had to endure!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I chopped off one of your hands to remind you that everything you have, I can take away.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed placed the sword back on the table and picked up the teacup, about to drink.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he discovered that the cup was now splattered with blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blood is dirty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It can’t be drunk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just like betrayal, it feels disgusting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yannick Ridge remembers Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Reed’s great kindness, never daring to forget!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though one hand had been chopped off, Truman Ridge still bore the intense pain and managed a bitter smile, “My loyalty to Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Reed is witnessed by heaven and earth!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You really aren’t afraid of being struck by lightning!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed smiled at him and said bluntly, “I have intelligence that you once had a secret contact with a woman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Speak up, tell me what I want to know.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back in Gonzalez City, in the Five-river Province, moving the Wolf Cavalry!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He suspected it was Eliezer Pine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All four maidservants were absent from Demarco Mount.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among them, Lillian Tompson was by his own side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grace River had already gone to The North Sea to search for Isabella Warm’s whereabouts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Isabella Warm had long since disappeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The only one unaccounted for was the eldest of the four, Eliezer Pine!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eliezer Pine was the only one who could move the Wolf Cavalry!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During the rebellion in The North Sea, it was she who rushed to Demarco Mount’s camp, bringing the Wolf Cavalry to drive away the rebels of The North Sea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among the four maidservants, only Eliezer Pine, who managed external affairs, had the capability to move the Wolf Cavalry!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>According to the intelligence Julius Reed investigated, the Wolf Cavalry had dealings with Truman Ridge!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially the Boulevard League founded at that time, even Fabian Percival…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fabian Percival had also made contact with that mysterious woman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One could say that before Julius Reed went to the capital, this mysterious woman was omnipresent!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In every enemy he encountered, her figure could be seen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like a hidden mastermind, she manipulated everything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Now, start telling me, the information about the mysterious woman who you were in contact with back then.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For every minute that passes, I will kill one of your Ridge Family members.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Until all of you are dead.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed once again picked up the Longsword covered in fresh blood, casually glancing at the Rolex on his wrist, “You have fifty seconds to think.”\u003C\u002Fp>",1428,"2026-06-06T17:05:15.459Z",1,"novelbin.me","50e71d8b0b05bfad5ecf11d66fc28d3a82c03e3ad7ffe9136013ab261db42c9a","legend-of-dragon-son-in-law-chapter-1007","legend-of-dragon-son-in-law-chapter-1005",2546,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Flegend-of-dragon-son-in-law-cover.jpg"]
