Julius Reed, who had wanted to enjoy a world of just the two of them with Quella Radcliffe in the capital, now faced a room full of women.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His feelings were complicated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A garden full of spring should, theoretically, be every man’s ultimate dream.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But truly, from the bottom of his heart, he could not feel happy at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A room full of women was a room full of trouble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m going out for a smoke.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed looked at Nelson in front of him with an air of helplessness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“When did you learn to smoke?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nelson asked without avoiding the strange looks from Quella Radcliffe standing behind her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That tone…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Now!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed took a deep breath and strode out of the house.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sticking around for much longer, he felt, would lead to trouble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He truly hadn’t expected that Isabella Warm’s dagger would end up being connected to the Huntington family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The waters of the capital were indeed murky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Reed, you are here…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beckett Carmichael, who was strolling around the courtyard, noticed Julius Reed and briskly walked over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With eager attention, he said, “Is there anything I can help you with?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had received reports from the bodyguards at the door that several women had visited the house that day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each was a beauty as exquisite as a celestial being.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What do you know about Itai Huntington’s situation?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed looked at Beckett Carmichael with a serious face, his mind filled with the words recently spoken by Itai Huntington.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Huntington family, could it really be connected to Levis Corporation?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How did Isabella Warm’s dagger end up in Darrell Huntington’s hands!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And it had been several years ago!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back then, he was the revered leader of the Ten Thousand Mountain Alliance, and Isabella Warm was not being hunted down!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ve heard some things.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the solemnity of Julius Reed, Beckett Carmichael refrained from joking around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That year, when the Huntington family cast that mother and daughter out, it was well-known throughout the capital.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He shook his head and sighed, “To be honest, I understand Darrell Huntington’s character, extremely cruel!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Find out!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I want a clear result!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Don’t overlook any detail.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed’s hands were in his pockets as he gazed at the distant sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The setting sun had begun to fall, and the sky was gradually darkening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Okay!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’ll get someone on it right away!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beckett Carmichael nodded his head with a touch of confusion, “What is this about…?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He couldn’t understand why Julius Reed, having just turned the Huntington family upside down, was now seeking to investigate them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Figure it out clearly, then I will tell you!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially about the so-called stolen treasures of the Huntington family back then.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Remembering the recent events and combining them with the call from the Red Widow,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Julius Reed took a deep breath, frustrated and confused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the more it was times like these, the more he had to remain calm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He must not make mistakes!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Understood!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beckett Carmichael nodded and quickly departed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nathaniel City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lighting Building!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is the headquarters of the Martial Arts Association.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It is also a landmark building in Nathaniel City!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as you enter the city area of Nathaniel City, you can see the towering Lighting Building piercing the clouds!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Located in the northwestern part of the Huaxia Plate on the Eastern continent,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>this place has developed transportation and the people live a prosperous life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because of the presence of the Martial Arts Association, every person in Nathaniel City practices martial arts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Martial arts schools are everywhere!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It has been investigated that in the population of over ten million in Nathaniel City, there are more than three hundred martial arts schools.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Martial arts enthusiasts from around the world come here as a pilgrimage!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One might say that the Lighting Building is the holy land!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The holy land for martial artists!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Entering it is an honor they pursue for a lifetime.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The thirteenth floor of the Lighting Building.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The senior members of the Martial Arts Association sat in the conference room, the atmosphere heavy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Any results?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the center of the conference room, a middle-aged man with a crew cut spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wore the black uniform of the Martial Arts Association with a six-star badge on his chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His expression was stern, his tone carrying a hint of anger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“President, the official investigation report’s conclusions are…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the meeting room, someone stood up, holding a paper in their hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Read it!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jerry Anderson barked sharply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was the President of the Martial Arts Association and also a six-star powerhouse globally recognized by martial artists.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At least under the light of day, the recognized martial artists who had reached six stars numbered only three.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Last night, he received terrible news!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jasper Leopold, who had gone to support the Huntington family, met with misfortune.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>None of his companions survived!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a disgrace!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A disgrace to the Martial Arts Association!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The incident spread across the world almost overnight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Countless eyes were watching the association, waiting to see how they would respond!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The official report concludes that Director Leopold and his companions encountered a landslide and unfortunately perished.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man read out loud.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A silence fell upon the meeting room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one spoke a word.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The atmosphere was oppressively somber.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Give it to me…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jerry Anderson extended his hand, and the man immediately passed the report to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rip!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After receiving the report, he tore it to shreds and crumpled it into a ball!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, he threw it fiercely away!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Bullshit!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Where are our investigation results?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked at the man before him and roared, “I sent you to investigate last night!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Speak!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After learning of Jasper Leopold’s tragic death, the association had sent people to the scene overnight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First, they retrieved the bodies of their fallen comrades, then secretly investigated the site of the incident.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They wanted to uncover the truth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An accident?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jasper Leopold’s head had been chopped off and sent to the Huntington Mansion!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could that also be an accident?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was an indignity!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An unprecedented disgrace for the Martial Arts Association over its centuries-long history!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A standing director’s position in the association was second only to the President and the Vice President.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the outside world, directors were likewise revered as near-sacrosanct figures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And now, a director had been killed in such an unclear and unjust manner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This posed a strong challenge to the association’s centuries-old reputation!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We conducted an overnight investigation last night and came to a conclusion.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before the man standing before Jerry Anderson could speak, another director of the association, Heathcliff Abernathy, picked up a folder in front of him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The cause of the landslide was suspected to be orchestrated, and Director Leopold and the others were already dead.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heathcliff Abernathy read the text, his brows furrowing tightly together, “They died cleanly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Except for Leopold, all were killed with a single strike!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Our people didn’t even have a chance to react.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The room erupted in an uproar!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The members of the association’s eyes widened, mouths agape.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>ɴονǤο.с0\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All wore looks of disbelief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was Jasper Leopold!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A standing director of the Martial Arts Association, a four-star peak martial artist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The six-stars, few and far between.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The five-stars, as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And as for four-stars, although slightly more common, there were no more than a hundred who wore the four-star badge!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leopold was at the pinnacle of four-star martial artists, preparing to undergo assessment at the end of the year to join the ranks of five-star powerhouses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was a major event for the Martial Arts Association!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Jerry Anderson personally led the campaign, expending a great deal of effort to plan the ceremony for Leopold’s ascent to a five-star powerhouse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, the grand drama was dazzlingly performed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The main character was no longer of this world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An enormous irony!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Someone actually dared to kill one of our Martial Association’s people?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the meeting room, the members of the association spoke with shock in their voices.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Accustomed to the world’s adoration, they took it for granted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, this Lighting Building was a sacred ground of martial arts!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, for the first time, someone had dared to strike at the association!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And they did so in a grand manner!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not only did they wipe out many of their elite, but even a standing director of the association was brutally killed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This instilled fear in the association’s members who usually felt no sense of crisis.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Can we find out who did it?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jerry Anderson asked coldly.\u003C\u002Fp>",1447,"2026-06-06T17:05:07.199Z",1,"novelbin.me","14e0983a10947347f07b33d49a58392bed87a3d0ce8a65766139de1e1f3ae9ed","legend-of-dragon-son-in-law-chapter-885","legend-of-dragon-son-in-law-chapter-883",2546,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Flegend-of-dragon-son-in-law-cover.jpg"]
