and Abilities When the maid uttered these words, the woman in the phoenix robe was clearly a bit anxious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The elder standing to her right, on the other hand, appeared very calm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Daring to flirt with the real princess of The North Sea, one must pay a price.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Do you really think you’re someone important?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just a grandmaster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it weren’t for the support of Shushan behind Hendrick Kensington, what right or ability would he have to be so presumptuous in front of the Northern Sea Princess?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This Town North King, what position does he hold in The North Sea?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hendrick Kensington leaned on the couch, carefully picking up the glass bead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he stood up, placing it in the safe in the corner of the living room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“A king who is granted land, his status in The North Sea is second only to the royal family.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The maid answered softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So, if he were to meet me, would he have to kneel and salute just the same?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pride was inherent in Hendrick Kensington’s bones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A grandmaster in his youth, enough to make him proud of the world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Given time, his future would surely be immeasurable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kensington and the princess were to be formally married, the Town North King would naturally have to kneel and salute his bridegroom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But currently…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The maid said with a light laugh, “At the moment, you are not.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You, a maid, are quite interesting.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hendrick Kensington closed the safe and walked towards her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m very curious to see what kind of face lies beneath the veil.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having said that, he reached out his hand to pull the veil off the maid’s face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kensington!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The phoenix-robed woman immediately stood up, blocking in front of the maid: “We of The North Sea, have our own rules.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The women of The North Sea must not show their faces lightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once the veil is removed, they must marry.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As she spoke, she was extremely nervous, her throat moving continuously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>ɴονǤօ.сᴑ\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the hair by her temples was damp with fine beads of sweat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was just a stand-in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The maid behind her was the real princess!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If she were provoked by Hendrick Kensington today, she would be in deep trouble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Young Master Kensington, you seem a bit impatient.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the princess comes to marry, I will serve you along with her.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as the atmosphere became somewhat awkward, the maid suddenly spoke up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without shyness or anger, she carried herself with poise and grace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This, in turn, made Hendrick Kensington, insistent on seeing her true face, feel somewhat embarrassed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sorry for the intrusion.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He lowered his hand and glanced at his watch, “It’s still early, take me to see the splendor of The North Sea cavalry.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hendrick Kensington had never felt such a strong desire before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not even when facing the Northern Sea Princess did he experience such an intense urge to conquer!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What one can’t have, eternally stirs within.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His gaze swept over the maid with the veiled face, and he couldn’t help but swallow hard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Please follow me!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elders Victor was the first to turn and leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Kensington family’s mansion was very spacious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The family valued martial training, so the courtyard started out as a training ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Later, as Theodore Kensington opened martial training halls all across Five-river Province, the courtyard became unused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, several luxury cars were parked there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many of them were brand new, never driven before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These were all lavish gifts from wealthy merchants of Five-river Province upon hearing of Hendrick Kensington’s return, sent especially to curry favor with the Kensington family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Whichever one the princess likes, I’ll give it to you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Standing in front of a dozen luxury cars, Hendrick Kensington walked back and forth, finally stopping at a supercar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Shall I drive?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He asked with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I will.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The maid stepped forward, directly opening the car door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sitting in the driver’s seat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Please have the princess and Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kensington sit in the back.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elders Victor, not waiting for Hendrick Kensington to move, directly sat in the front passenger seat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hiss…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hendrick Kensington took a deep breath, cursing inwardly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But since things had come to this, he simply walked to the back seat and sat down with the phoenix-robed woman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sports car roared to life!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the blink of an eye, it left the Kensington family’s mansion, heading toward the forest outside the city.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Five-river Province was mountainous with lush trees.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The location of the Kensington family was in the suburbs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few minutes later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sports car stopped at the end of a road.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Further ahead lay a dense forest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Here?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hendrick Kensington pushed open the car door, folding his arms behind his back as he surveyed the pitch-black forest ahead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a Grandmaster, he could sense the presence of danger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet inside, there seemed to be no stir.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Please!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The maidservant extended a hand, pointing toward the forest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Please!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hendrick Kensington strode ahead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Damn Town North King!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was a Grandmaster!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Including The North Sea, there wasn’t anything he really looked up to.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>About ten minutes into the walk, just as Hendrick Kensington’s patience was about to run out—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Within the forest, a long sword was drawn from its sheath!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Caught off guard by the sudden change, he immediately stopped in his tracks, vigilantly watching ahead!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, he clenched his fists, ready to make a move at any moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Young Master Kensington, do not be alarmed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These are The North Sea Cavalry!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elders Victor emerged from behind him, lightly blowing a whistle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rustle!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nearly a thousand men marched out of the forest in neat rows!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The solemn aura made Hendrick Kensington’s scalp tingle!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a Grandmaster, it was the first time he felt somewhat breathless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swish!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The soldiers, who were not on horseback, turned neatly and retreated to both sides.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Afterward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A man and his horse slowly emerged from the depths of the forest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Your servant, Arturo, greets the princess!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man dismounted, planted his long spear in the ground, and knelt in a respectful salute.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Town North King need not show such great courtesy.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elders Victor bent down and helped Arturo up: “After a long ride, the princess thought to visit and comfort you.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How has it been, all according to plan?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During the entire sequence, the woman in the phoenix robe and the maidservant did not speak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Everything proceeded according to Elders Victor’s plan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Night Fairy headed straight for Gonzalez City, but the assassination failed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next step depends on how Elders Victor operates.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arturo held his long spear upside down, speaking out in a cold voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Very well, leave the rest to me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elders Victor nodded, a slight smile appearing on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although the trick was a bit low-level, having Night Fairy make a move wasn’t a bad idea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The world knew Night Fairy had Thousands faces, but few knew that Night Fairy was a Grandmaster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And among the ranks, one of the top ten individuals on the Heaven’s List!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Night Fairy wasn’t just skilled at disguise, her talent for poisoning was also top-notch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thousands faces, by nature, was an assassin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An assassin’s disguise isn’t just about appearance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s about the heart as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She could make one believe she harbored absolutely no betrayal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, when her target’s back was turned to her, she could strike fiercely at the vitals!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If she doesn’t strike, so be it, but once she does…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The enemy must die.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such a dangerous person, like a ticking bomb.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No matter where she was, there was danger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Night Fairy is immensely suspicious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’ve already spread rumors that Julius Reed orchestrated this scheme, hoping to subdue Night Fairy with it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elders Victor laughed lightly, his composure full of strategizing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Who is this…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arturo noticed the unfamiliar face of Hendrick Kensington and couldn’t help but furrow his brow: “Also a man of The North Sea?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, I, the king, have never seen him.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Town North King, this is…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m Hendrick Kensington!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still fuming from the earlier shock, Hendrick Kensington was very displeased!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, with the other’s arrogant tone, he was even more angry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He interrupted the woman in the phoenix robe, snorting lightly, “But soon enough, I will be the son-in-law of The North Sea!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When you see me, you too shall kneel in salutation!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The son-in-law of The North Sea?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arturo was first taken aback, then sneered: “By what virtues or abilities do you dare make such a bold statement?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What virtues and abilities?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hendrick Kensington snorted softly and fiercely thrust a punch forward!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“By this!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His fist went straight for Arturo’s face!\u003C\u002Fp>",1457,"2026-06-06T17:05:15.459Z",1,"novelbin.me","45c88042a65c1b49cc80ad79c297de108f155a8540ffb20d1bdba28be11a1962","legend-of-dragon-son-in-law-chapter-1040","legend-of-dragon-son-in-law-chapter-1038",2546,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Flegend-of-dragon-son-in-law-cover.jpg"]
