throat moved, his forehead covered in cold sweat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was due to both the pain of his severed hand and the fear in his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His peripheral vision caught a member of the Ridge family sneaking away, and he breathed a sigh of relief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it would still take some time before the Elders Victor arrived here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In that time, he had to stall Julius Reed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Facing the man who had once been his benefactor, Truman Ridge felt nothing but hatred!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He knew without thinking that his hand was beyond repair; it couldn’t be reattached.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having witnessed Julius Reed kill without blinking an eye, he now focused only on surviving and then seeking revenge!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ten seconds left.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed turned around, looking at the panic-stricken members of the Ridge family at the doorway.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They wanted to run, but they felt an invisible restraint tugging at them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It forced them to stand their ground, unable to move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Ridge family members were mere ordinary people; how could they resist a Grandmaster?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The disparity was not just like that of an ant trying to shake a tree or a mantis trying to stop a chariot; it was even greater.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I say…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Truman Ridge took a deep breath, extremely reluctant to speak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He possessed countless wealth and was accustomed to a life where others looked up to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wherever he went, he enjoyed the highest glory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the Five-river Province, even the Boss would kneel before him and offer a cup of tea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, at his own doorstep in front of countless clan members, Truman Ridge had one hand chopped off, lowered his noble head, and faced a stark threat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had no choice but to endure silently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>ɴονǥο.сο\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no other way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The woman who contacted me initially was named…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He hesitated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ever since the chaos broke out in the Five-river Province and Julius Reed entered the capital, he had lost contact with that woman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Truman Ridge vividly remembered how terrifying the woman’s strength had been!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, if he didn’t speak now, his people would die.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lie?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Truman Ridge didn’t dare to take the risk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, with Elders Victor there and the capabilities of the North Sea, which he had witnessed firsthand in the early hours, it was not inferior to that woman’s.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he couldn’t figure out why two women, one mysterious, only making contact through the phone,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>the other wearing a bamboo hat, daring not to show her true face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could it be that some women with special identities feared being recognized?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What’s her name?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed furrowed his eyebrows, pressing the sharp edge of the sword against his neck: “Don’t mumble and waste time!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Her name is…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lillian Tompson.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment Truman Ridge’s words fell, he immediately felt a chilling sensation on his neck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed as if the cold blade had already pierced his skin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Say that again!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed’s voice was icy and bone-chilling: “Dare to lie, and I will exterminate your entire Ridge family!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lillian Tompson!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wasn’t Lillian Tompson in the capital?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, she was serving by his side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could it be that Lillian Tompson had followed him all the way from Gonzalez City to the capital?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Impossible!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lillian Tompson didn’t have the guts, nor would she dare to lie to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if she were to lie, she wouldn’t tell such a low-level lie.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But if Truman Ridge was lying, how did he come to know the three words Lillian Tompson?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The name of Ten Thousand Mountain Alliance’s Holy Lord’s personal maid was not something everyone knew.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was Ten Thousand Mountain Alliance’s secret!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To know the name Lillian Tompson, he must have had contact with people from the Ten Thousand Mountain Alliance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Truman Ridge himself definitely couldn’t have guessed it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Reed, I dare not lie…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Truman Ridge fell to his knees with a ‘thump,’ quickly using his intact hand to swear to the sky, “If I lie, may my entire family die a horrible death!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A deadly oath!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was truly panicked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At a moment of life and death, there was no time for further thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Julius Reed’s reaction, Truman Ridge started to wonder if he had misspoken.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How do you know, her name is Lillian Tompson?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed lowered his head, looking into Truman Ridge’s eyes as if to peer into his soul.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It was…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>that woman, she told me herself.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Truman Ridge trembled all over, seemingly having forgotten the pain from his severed hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Large beads of sweat incessantly dripped from his forehead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So, have you heard his voice?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed pulled out his phone from his pocket and dialed Lillian Tompson’s number.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I have, we’ve had many phone calls.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Truman Ridge hurriedly nodded, his heart filling with even more confusion and fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t know why his answer had elicited such a strong reaction from the other party!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Saint…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A woman’s voice came through the phone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Is it this one?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed held the phone in one hand, his face expressionless as he looked towards Truman Ridge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You only need to answer me, yes, or no.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>not…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Truman Ridge furrowed his brow, pondered for a moment, then spoke, “It’s not this voice.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Saint, what’s the matter?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Confused by the conversation she overheard, Lillian Tompson spoke from the other end of the phone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s nothing now.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without waiting for Lillian Tompson to speak again, Julius Reed hung up the phone and sat back down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly, someone was framing Lillian Tompson.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The situation seemed to be getting more interesting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Reed…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I didn’t lie!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That person surely told me her name was Lillian Tompson…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Truman Ridge hurriedly crawled in front of Julius Reed, pleading in agony, “I beg you, for the services I’ve rendered, spare my family, the Ridge Family, a way out!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Minor impatience disrupts great plans!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The normally formidable Truman Ridge could only kneel at the feet of another!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But if he could survive this ordeal, he believed The North Sea would assist him in his revenge!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, joining forces, they would make Julius Reed have no place to be buried!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I know you didn’t lie.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed turned his head to look at him, a slight smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Telling one’s own name to others, now how foolish is that!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He’d briefly wondered if it could be a strategic ploy by Lillian Tompson!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But clearly, such a scheme would be too foolish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lillian Tompson wasn’t that stupid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed then that this mysterious woman knew Lillian Tompson.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those who could mobilize the Wolf Cavalry and also knew Lillian Tompson were very few.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Almost a hand’s count could trace it back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That will be all for today, we’ll meet again.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having obtained the answer he wanted, Julius Reed stood up and walked to the entrance of the hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching his figure, Truman Ridge breathed a sigh of relief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Had he just easily passed the test?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even sacrificing an arm would have been worth it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Reed, please take care.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I will see you out.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Truman Ridge hurriedly got up from the ground, full of the joy of having survived a disaster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Back in Five-river Province, when you joined the Boulevard League, you wanted to put me to death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Is that right?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed suddenly spoke with his back towards him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Truman Ridge suddenly fell silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Flash!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A glint of cold steel flashed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The elder son of the Ridge family, head fell to the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blood spurted three meters away, splashing onto Truman Ridge’s face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The rest of the Ridge family members were all startled, their legs weak with fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I am asking you a question.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed held the mighty Great Mountain Night Sword single-handedly, blood slowly gathering at the tip of the blade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, it dripped onto the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thump!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The headless body fell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Gurgle…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Truman Ridge’s throat moved, but he didn’t know what to say.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Flash!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another sword!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The second son of the Ridge family, head fell to the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes still showing a look of horror.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That was the interest.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having said that, Julius Reed, holding his sword, strode away.\u003C\u002Fp>",1370,"2026-06-06T17:05:15.459Z",1,"novelbin.me","262c900cc5845ee1157fd292385707da4d74640a3b7599fe1ffbeb60a85b7208","legend-of-dragon-son-in-law-chapter-1008","legend-of-dragon-son-in-law-chapter-1006",2546,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Flegend-of-dragon-son-in-law-cover.jpg"]
