Gonzalez City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was the person Julius Reed found most troublesome in all of Huaxia!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This man was like a ghost; omnipresent but untraceable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the moment Fabian Percival entered Gonzalez City, Devlin had orchestrated a grand strategy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This strategy could even be traced back several years!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back to when Fabian Percival was forced to leave Gonzalez City and seek refuge in Thunderpeak Hall!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Devlin, with his own power, had turned Gonzalez City upside down!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eventually, Fabian Percival met a tragic death, and the Roosevelt family retreated in defeat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet Devlin, remained unscathed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the capital, the attempts on Julius Reed’s life, the multiple enemies he made!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most of them were the handiwork of Devlin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Including Lily Jorden, many pawns were quietly placed by Devlin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This mysteriously elusive mastermind from Thunderpeak Hall, even after losing several games, always managed to regroup.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a remarkably short period of time, he set up a new game.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No matter who died, Devlin always survived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even now, no one had seen what Devlin looked like.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was like a legend, a shadow that followed form.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even without showing his face, but Julius Reed could feel that he was in Gonzalez City!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This man, who was once his mentor into the core of Seven Clouds Academy, had after his betrayal become a man of Thunderpeak Hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon reviewing various documents from Seven Clouds Academy, including those from Venassa Pine and Templeton Lena, none had seen Devlin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed had once sent people to investigate, but to no avail.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His subordinates always found traces where Devlin had been, but they never saw the man himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Someone had openly claimed that Zade Radcliffe was Devlin!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed held his cellphone, deep in thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One hour ago, this number had sent a message.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It pertained to the utmost secrets of Thunderpeak Hall!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And it had been verified.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And now, a second message that was even more sensational!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It claimed that Zade Radcliffe was Devlin!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zade Radcliffe, Quella Radcliffe’s grandfather, Clan Leader of the Radcliffe Family!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If this were true, then the deception was deeply hidden!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It could even explain why Julius Reed had originally appeared in Gonzalez City!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was marrying into the Radcliffe Family part of a conspiracy?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The identity of Devlin was undoubtedly the highest secret of Thunderpeak Hall!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And on the day they went to seek Otis Radcliffe, it was precisely by a message sent from Zade Radcliffe’s cell phone that the Young Master of The North Sea was pinpointed!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could it be that Devlin was a double agent?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Working both for The North Sea and for Thunderpeak Hall?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If true, then really, a master.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A master capable of playing both sides.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But who exactly was leaking this information to him?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What benefits did they gain by doing so?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Why do this?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed quickly replied to the message.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An old hand like this would basically give no chance to be tracked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Might as well be straightforward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A minute later, his phone vibrated again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We are friends.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Friends?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed did not know he had friends in Thunderpeak Hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The only person in Thunderpeak Hall who stood shoulder to shoulder with Devlin was Brysen Beaumont.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But would this Thunderpeak Hall Mage betray Devlin?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, they had once dueled in the northwest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I have no friends.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed replied again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In this world, there were no free lunches.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such major revelations must have motives!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Half a minute.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other party replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I am your long-lost friend.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moving forward, I will continually help you, first by eliminating The North Sea, then Thunderpeak Hall.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crack!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed crushed the phone to pieces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Friend?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Full of lies!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Phone.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He extended his hand, and a disciple from Seven Clouds Academy immediately handed him a brand new cellphone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Templeton Lena had ordered this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mad Dragon liked to crush cellphones, so he instructed them to carry several.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After removing the SIM card, he inserted it into the new phone, and Julius Reed looked up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the corridor, Venassa Pine quickly ran over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How did it go?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed put the cellphone back into his pocket and asked aloud.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s the same.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Venassa Pine nodded, her hands still stained with blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>ƝονǤᴑ.ƈ0\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What happened?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed pointed at her hand, “Are you hurt?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s nothing; I just scraped it while smashing the door.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Venassa Pine grinned and tucked her hands into her pockets, “What about Mad Dragon?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Take him away, to Thunderpeak Hall!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed kicked open the hospital room door, and the disciples from Seven Clouds Academy swiftly rushed in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They lifted the entire bed and quickly left the hospital.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just like pallbearers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the guards at the entrance of Thunderpeak Hall saw Julius Reed, they instantly became alert!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother Davenport, hello!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was their elder brother’s elder brother; having been with Aron Jackson for so long, they naturally recognized Julius Reed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Where’s your boss?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wake him up!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed said indifferently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Understood!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The guard tidied his clothes, straightened his hat, and quickly dashed inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, from a black van at the entrance, Anna Harris was once again carried down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Directly to Aron Jackson’s office.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After saying that, Julius Reed led the way forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Thunderpeak Hall was quiet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was 4 or 5 in the morning, when everyone was most fatigued.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the lobby, there were only two duty receptionists.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As they reached the office door, Aron Jackson, while running and putting on his clothes, met Julius Reed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“big brother, up so early, what’s up?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aron Jackson, yawning, pushed open the door of his office.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was clearly not fully awake.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the office, there was a strange odor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What’s that smell?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed frowned slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Abernathy’s Mage, Jensen Cook.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Last time you caught him, I’ve been keeping him here.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aron Jackson turned on the light, just in time to see Jensen Cook tied up in the corner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Whoâ€¦”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Noticing someone entering, Jensen Cook, groggy, opened his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Jensen Cook, far from his previous might as the Mage, was merely a weak, sickly patient.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dark circles under his eyes, his face pale.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Julius Reed…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>you kill meâ€¦”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon seeing Julius Reed, Jensen Cook weakly roared, “Quick!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Give me a quick endâ€¦ pleaseâ€¦”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He yelled feeblely, leaning against the wall, weak to the extreme.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This isâ€¦”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed directed his men to set Anna Harris on a chair, then walked back over to Jensen Cook, hands clasped behind his back, “Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cook, how have you been?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Till now, I haven’t given him a bit of food, not a drop of water!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aron Jackson walked over with a cold sneer, contempt in his voice, “A rich man, used to having women feed him, has never endured hunger like this.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These past days, Jensen Cook had been wailing endlessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Aron Jackson, wearing headphones, didn’t care.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he shouted and shouted, without water, his throat went dry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eventually, he fell silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Julius Reed…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>if you dare, just kill me!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jensen Cook attempted to shout, but could only muster a weak voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How about this, work for me, and I won’t kill you.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How’s that?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed, looking down at the nearly defeated Jensen Cook, asked softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Heh, Julius Reed!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You and I have irreconcilable differences!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if I die of thirst or starve, sitting here and waiting to die, I will never surrender to you!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You can’t understand the dignity of a poor man!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jensen Cook gritted his teeth, nearly pushing the words through his teeth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Very well!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I like people with backbone.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed turned around, gestured to his underlings, “Go, get some breakfast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both Aron Jackson and I are hungry; let’s all have something.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, Brother Davenport!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aron Jackson’s men, with a quick trot, left the office.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, Jensen Cook’s throat involuntarily twitched when he heard the mention of breakfast.\u003C\u002Fp>",1317,"2026-06-06T17:05:18.017Z",1,"novelbin.me","cd2e4f2c7bdb97b8487dd56d4d5a749e2604d0648b6c3b8944f08557e9f06cdc","legend-of-dragon-son-in-law-chapter-1077","legend-of-dragon-son-in-law-chapter-1075",2546,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Flegend-of-dragon-son-in-law-cover.jpg"]
