Chapter 2543: Framing

"If my guess is correct, you have foreseen the future." Julius Reed did not directly respond to his words but asked instead.

"That’s right, I have foreseen the future. It’s not surprising that you guessed this." Silvio Reed nodded, not denying it. "You are my most outstanding disciple; the others all died at our hands. This shows that, whether in intelligence or ability, you are the best. However, I clearly said I was going to Boulevard Mountain."

He was very curious.

Gathering information from many sources, Silvio knew Julius Reed had the ability to see any news.

Although this ability is very peculiar and seems unbelievable, Silvio confirmed such a special existence based on ancient texts he found earlier.

By foreseeing the future, he saw the outcome and pretended to go to Boulevard Mountain, just to make Julius Reed receive the wrong information.

Silvio originally thought Julius Reed would chase him to Boulevard Mountain, but never expected Julius Reed wouldn’t leave.

He was truly waiting for him at the Lu family estate.

So, how did Julius Reed confirm this?

Silvio, whose foresight was always very accurate, had deviations for the first time.

In his foresight, everything went very smoothly.

Silvio killed everyone inside the Lu family estate, rescued Iwan Martinez, and under the gaze of countless martial artists, slowly left.

In terms of prestige, respect in the martial arts world, and the blow to Julius Reed’s inner self, he gained all of it in the foreseen future.

But when the time actually came, everything changed.

Silvio’s foresight had deviations before, but such a large deviation was the first time.

He was very curious, also very surprised.

But all surprises were within his consideration.

"I just predicted what a gentleman would do. When you act, you are a gentleman. So, a hypocrite will certainly do the opposite." Julius Reed, based on years of understanding Silvio, made a very important judgment.

Silvio’s move was too clever.

Boulevard Mountain has Merrill Caldwell, a woman tied to his fate.

The other is Nelson at the Lu family estate.

Julius Reed was also gambling.

He could only bet on meeting Silvio.

Otherwise, it would be a matter of choosing the lesser of two evils.

Although Merrill Caldwell and Nelson both count as lesser evils.

All these years, Julius Reed has been perceiving human nature.

Silvio is also human and has his own weaknesses.

After repeatedly calculating, Julius Reed confirmed Silvio would certainly build a bridge and tunnel in secret!

Sure enough, Silvio came.

Pretended to be Marcellus Lopez and came to the Lu family estate!

Even deceived the Emperor of Blood Soul!

"I am very curious, where has Marcellus Lopez gone? His skills are not lacking; you couldn’t easily get rid of him." Julius Reed said calmly, "The Emperor of Blood Soul wouldn’t cooperate with you in acting, so the only explanation is you solved Marcellus Lopez yourself."

"Marcellus Lopez is very difficult to deal with in the yellow sand. But you haven’t spent any True Qi, indicating all your attention is on me, and you haven’t clashed with Marcellus Lopez."

"My disciple, if I were not destined to die, I would have kept you by my side. In that case, you would be my right-hand man, not now, where you and I stand on opposite sides as enemies." Silvio laughed loudly, saying, "Marcellus Lopez doesn’t have a brain like yours; even if given the Mr. Springs, he’d continue to get fooled."

His words were full of disdain for Marcellus Lopez.

"I just spread the news that I was at Boulevard Mountain, and he chased there. You say, so stupid like that, isn’t it not a pity to die?"

He felt no guilt at all, even thought foolish people could only die.

"Marcellus Lopez is very strong; with him there, I can only sit in second place. Julius Reed, you have also been a king; tell me, does a brainless person deserve to sit in that position? He’s not worthy! Without wisdom, the higher the position, the bigger the mistakes! Then it is these martial artists who suffer! Have I done anything wrong?"

Silvio pointed to his chest, questioning, "Anyone in the world can criticize me, blame me! But exclusively you, Julius Reed, cannot! Without me, you might have died long ago! Without me, how could you sit on the dragon throne of Ten Thousand Mountain Alliance? I cleared obstacles for you, paved the road, you are the beneficiary!"

"But isn’t all of this your plan, including me sitting in that position, you treated me as a puppet, right?"

Julius Reed sneered, completely unmoved by Silvio’s words.

"Everything is because of your ambition, because of your desire! Silvio, stop talking, even if Marcellus Lopez is not here, no matter how eloquent you are, I still won’t forgive you."

Julius Reed spoke, "No one will accept deception and betrayal, you don’t like it either, right?"

"Certainly!" Silvio’s smile gradually disappeared.

"I don’t want to fight you; if you and I join forces, we are invincible. What do you say, my good disciple, are you willing to cooperate with me?" He once again extended the olive branch to Julius Reed.

This was sincere.

But Julius Reed couldn’t see Silvio’s inner thoughts.

Usually, he could hear everything, but now there’s silence.

Old fox!

"I will not join forces with you, the righteousness in my Julius Reed makes it intolerable."

Julius Reed smiled and slowly unsheathed his weapon, "Let’s begin."

"No, I didn’t come here to fight you today, nor do I want to fight."

Silvio slowly retreated.

Suddenly, the yellow sand disappeared.

Along with it, Julius Reed disappeared.

But ahead, there was a corpse.

The corpse of a woman.

"He killed an unarmed woman?"

Someone discovered it and couldn’t help but shout, "This woman isn’t a martial artist! The person just now wasn’t Silvio! He hired someone to impersonate Silvio to gain false fame, then killed to silence witnesses!"

A single stone stirred a thousand waves!

The martial artists who hadn’t thought much of it now found the affair quite despicable.

"A dignified man, why kill a woman? Does the existence of Silvio truly matter so much?"

"Deception and fraud, cheating all martial artists in the world! Piran Wilson, you really have great skill!"

"Such people are extremely hypocritical!"

Suddenly, the sounds of condemnation and curses flowed continuously.

Julius Reed was taken by surprise; he never thought Silvio would do such a thing.

Logically, it’s not something he usually does, right?

Could it be even Silvio learned this?

Using a retreat to advance, resulting in Julius Reed being at the forefront.

"Silvio. Do you want to borrow this event to make me understand reason?" He shook his head, "I dislike reasoning the most, and listening to reason. I, Julius Reed, naturally have my ways of doing things."

Julius Reed turned, sword in hand, and disappeared.

Without facing the questioning, nor did he offer any explanation.

The next moment.

Several beams of red light appeared in the sky!

The people who spoke earlier were all beheaded!
