survival was to always stand behind others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only in this way could he ensure his own safety.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Advancing, he could walk over and stab from behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Retreating, he could disappear without a sound, as if he had never been there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Someone was behind him!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was an utterly chilling matter!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Who might you be…” Subconsciously, Devlin placed his hand on his waist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His combat skills were decent, but far inferior to those martial artists, and even in the Seven Clouds Academy, he couldn’t beat Templeton Lena.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The only reason he had managed to survive despite committing countless misdeeds was his extreme caution.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, the black-clad warriors of the Cyber army also gathered around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed that with a single command from Devlin, they would immediately take action.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Devlin, please don’t be nervous,” the man emerged from the darkness and said with a faint smile, “Having found you, I’m naturally your ally.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He raised his hands, showing goodwill, “In all the world, there’s only one person who can find you.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Devlin, do you believe me now?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Is it her?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Devlin didn’t let his guard down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It is.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What about?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Devlin spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The Divine Dragon Tripod.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Where?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Devlin asked again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Shadow Gate.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man responded again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Stand down!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Five seconds later, Devlin raised his hand, and the Cyber army quickly withdrew behind him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the dark night.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only the two of them remained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Is she well?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Devlin took out a cigarette from his chest pocket and offered it to the man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thank you, but I don’t smoke,” the man declined politely, “Smoking can give you away.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Cut the crap!” Devlin put the cigarette in his mouth, lit it with a lighter, took a deep drag, and said indifferently, “The young people these days are too pretentious.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Or perhaps, you are just stubborn,” the man said softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At these words, Devlin visibly stiffened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Do you believe that I could kill you with a dart?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After speaking, he slowly lifted the darkly painted hidden weapon box in his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If it weren’t for her, you’d already be dead,” Devlin took another deep puff of his cigarette, speaking with disdain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Is that so?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man stepped forward, snatching the hidden weapon box from Devlin’s hand and pressing it against his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That’s also what I wanted to say,”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man spoke coldly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Kid, there are no darts,” Devlin said calmly, continuing to smoke, nonchalant, “I, Devlin, always prefer to play it safe.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Shall we bet?” the man sneered, “Right now, I pull the trigger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If there’s no dart, I’ll kill myself instantly!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But if there is one, sorry, you’re certainly going to die.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Go ahead, shoot the dart,” Devlin, unruffled, spoke with the cigarette dangling from his lips, an air of composure on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Your era has already passed.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man swiftly shifted the barrel away and fired the dart into the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clatter!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cigarette from Devlin’s hand, not yet fully burnt out, fell to the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What’s your name?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Eagle.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man tossed the weapon box over and leaned against a tree.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>ƝοѵǤօ.с0\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Eagle?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s a good name!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After catching the weapon box, Devlin said indifferently, “My favorite animal is the wolf because a wolf never misses a chance to take down its prey!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having said that, he suddenly raised his hand!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Snap!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ha, I already disarmed the darts when I threw the box to you,” Eagle said with a smile, shaking his head and holding up a finger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sorry, but your era has passed.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The new wave always pushes the old wave forward!” Devlin put the dart back on his waist and gave a thumbs-up: “You’re impressive, almost as good as I was at your age.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Eagle could finish his sentence, a rope suddenly flew up from under his feet and hung him upside down from the tree.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The reason I’m safe is because of all the traps I’ve set up.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Devlin approached Eagle, smiling faintly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Consider this a lesson.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Despicable!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eagle was slightly annoyed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How come I’ve never seen you when I was with her for so long?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Devlin didn’t care but instead stood with his hands clasped behind his back, looking at the young man before him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“She doesn’t need to report everything to you, does she?” Eagle turned his head away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That’s also true.” Devlin nodded as if he had remembered something and suddenly asked, “I heard you have a sister?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How do you know?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man’s eyes widened, somewhat shocked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Because I am Devlin,” Devlin asked with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Are you feeling dizzy?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You…” Indeed, Eagle felt a bit dizzy after Devlin mentioned it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“There is poison on the weapon box, and even the darts are made of rubber.” Devlin waved his hand, relaxedly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Today I just wanted to teach you a lesson.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Remember!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In our line of work, never underestimate any opponent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it were someone else today, you’d already be dead ten times over!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hiss…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eagle felt the world spinning and grew increasingly dizzy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I know you have a sister named Ian Cook.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I also know that Ian Cook died in Morwenna!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And I even know who killed her!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Devlin pointed at Eagle and said solemnly, “Although you could silently appear behind me, any small slip-up and I could make you pay dearly in blood!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How do you…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>know all this…” Eagle closed his eyes, trying to fight off the dizziness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ve had quite a few dealings with the King of Medicine; we are old friends, after all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Today was just a little punishment.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Devlin slashed out with his knife, cutting the rope.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eagle fell to the ground, his mind starting to clear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His father was the King of Medicine; naturally, he had received some training since childhood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His resistance to poison wasn’t as abnormal as Julius Reed’s, but it was still first-rate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Tell me, why did she send you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Devlin was somewhat puzzled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“She could have easily contacted me herself for this sort of thing.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Because she knew Granny Xihua harbored treacherous thoughts,” Eagle said, leaning against the tree, somewhat disheartened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Devlin frowned slightly, surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But I’m an employee of Granny Xihua.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But you’ve already turned against her.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eagle lifted his head with a mischievous smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That’s indeed the case, but why do you know so much?” Devlin stepped closer, standing in front of Eagle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That’s not good.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“She knew early on that you would rebel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You and Granny always had ulterior motives.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But she knew, you were relatively pure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, she chose you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eagle stood up and patted the dirt off his backside, speaking meaningfully, “She told me to pass on a message to you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Devlin looked solemn, seemingly contemplating something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“She said, ‘Those who can stand at these heights are all intelligent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Intelligent people never believe in loyalty; they believe in benefits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She forgives your betrayal and will give you the benefits you desire.'” After speaking, Eagle vanished into the night.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The Divine Dragon Tripod is with the leader of the Shadow Gate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When you all left the Seven Clouds Academy, he deceived everyone.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eagle had left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just like he came.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“A rebel maidservant to a holy leader, a traitor employee to a maidservant, and an Eagle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such a combination is really interesting.” Devlin chuckled, shaking his head as he muttered to himself.\u003C\u002Fp>",1251,"2026-06-06T17:05:19.985Z",1,"novelbin.me","3cec9d27d3e33401b54a28155c692f59e812b72caf03903bed124e612c0e713c","legend-of-dragon-son-in-law-chapter-1140","legend-of-dragon-son-in-law-chapter-1138",2546,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Flegend-of-dragon-son-in-law-cover.jpg"]
