Legend of Dragon Son-in-law

Chapter 2619: Luring the Tiger from the Mountain of Leaving

After Silvio Reed left, Marcellus Lopez stood alone amidst the wind and sand.He had to admit that he had failed.

Even with his battle robe, Marcellus Lopez was still no match for Silvio Reed.

Not by a long shot.

He had only one battle robe, while, after controlling the Ten Thousand Mountain Alliance, Silvio Reed had countless treasures at his disposal.

Those relics from the Ancient Era had all become Silvio Reed’s private possessions.

Except for a portion given to capable members of the Ten Thousand Mountain Alliance as rewards, the rest had long been studied extensively by Silvio Reed.

Marcellus Lopez had only one battle robe; what could he use to fight Silvio Reed?

Finally, he accepted this reality.

He couldn’t compete with Silvio Reed.

Perhaps what Silvio Reed said was true; initially, Marcellus Lopez didn’t hate Silvio Reed for killing him but hated Silvio Reed for becoming the king of the Ten Thousand Mountain Alliance.

He took away everything that rightfully belonged to him.

Now, when faced with revenge and wealth, it’s clear that he favors the latter.

The hatred within Marcellus Lopez’s heart slowly dissipated.

When one sees things clearly, one can be at peace.

Pursuing power is not shameful; it’s not disgraceful.

...

After Demarco Mount’s ceremony concluded, various factions gradually departed.

"The power of the Ten Thousand Mountain Alliance is still very great, even the church suffered a major loss."

"In my view, we should avoid action and proceed with caution. After all, if Julius Reed becomes angry, we’ll all face severe consequences."

"Remain neutral!"

These people chatted for a long time and finally decided not to take sides for the time being.

Just as they left, Silvio Reed’s men arrived at the bottom of the mountain.

"Hiddy, lead them and kill all these people, leave no one alive."

Silvio Reed stood atop the peak, watching the crowd gradually leave in the distance, and smiled, saying, "These guys actually think of being fence-sitters, it’s the ones who don’t take sides that are the most despicable."

"Causing trouble at Demarco Mount, what if Julius Reed..." Hiddy hesitated.

In fact, ever since encountering Julius Reed and having certain memories implanted, resentfulness toward Silvio Reed began to brew within him.

It was just difficult to express.

Once this sentiment arose, it was like a blazing fire that he simply couldn’t control.

"You never used to question my decisions." Silvio Reed sneered, "So now you have your own thoughts?"

"I’ll go right away." Hiddy lifted his knife, took a few individuals with him, and disappeared in front of Silvio Reed.

Silvio Reed turned into a puddle of blood and vanished.

Only by making a stir and causing major trouble at Demarco Mount would Julius Reed come down personally.

As long as Julius Reed descended, Marcellus Lopez could enter Demarco Mount.

By then, Quella Radcliffe would become an unequivocal female demon.

Julius Reed either kills Quella Radcliffe, or is killed by her.

No room for negotiation.

"In this life, what I love most is manipulating humanity."

Silvio Reed chuckled.

As the people at the foot of the mountain reached a large intersection and were about to split up, they found several men in black before them.

"Stop."

Hiddy had his back to them, displaying a knife.

"Who are you!"

These Sect Elders and Great Grandmasters felt something was wrong.

But with many gathered, their abilities were relatively strong, and facing a few individuals, they didn’t pay much mind.

"Demarco Mount isn’t so easily accessible."

Hiddy said solemnly, "This place isn’t somewhere you can come or go as you please."

"What do you mean? Sent by Julius Reed?"

One Sect Elder queried.

"Julius Reed said you are to leave your lives behind."

As Hiddy finished speaking, his companions quickly moved!

These people swept through like the wind!

Thud!

In just one exchange, many fell to the ground.

Died instantly.

The remaining ones were utterly terrified and quickly drew their weapons.

"Isn’t Julius Reed afraid of being cursed!"

One pointed at Hiddy and swore.

"Afraid? The powerful ones have already left; I’m only killing you worthless ones, what of it?"

Hiddy turned around and lunged forward!

Swoosh!

He deftly dodged the Great Grandmaster’s sword and sliced his opponent’s neck.

The top experts who came to Demarco Mount left first.

These people left later.

Otherwise, how would Hiddy have the audacity to kill them all?

After all, you pick the softest fruit to squeeze.

Silvio Reed only wanted to draw away Julius Reed; as long as someone died, it was enough.

As for who died, it didn’t matter.

Before long, the ground was strewn with bodies.

"Uncle Hiddy, should we return to report now?"

One of his men wiped blood off his sword, walked up to Hiddy, and asked.

The remaining five or six gathered around.

"Don’t rush." Hiddy turned and looked at him, "Did you tell Fourth Lord about my departure?"

"This..."

The man’s face changed slightly, but he pretended to be calm, "Fourth Lord just happened to ask..."

Squelch!

Hiddy’s knife went straight into his heart.

"Remember, I follow Fourth Lord, but you’re my men. If I kill you, Fourth Lord won’t do anything to me, understand?"

Withdrawing the knife, Hiddy pushed aside the man in front of him and spoke expressionlessly.

"Understood!"

The remaining men quickly knelt, fearing they’d meet the same fate.

"Alright, let’s return to report."

Hiddy sheathed his knife and vanished on the spot.

Patrolling sentinels surrounded Demarco Mount, and before long, they discovered the group of bodies down the mountain.

This was no small matter.

For Demarco Mount, they couldn’t bear the blame.

If word got out, who would dare come to Demarco Mount in the future?

At this time, Julius Reed was fishing.

The news barely took minutes to reach his ears.

"Want to check it out?" Iwan Martinez grilled fish while drinking.

"Drawing away the tiger from the mountain." Julius Reed was nonchalant, continuing to fish. "Besides, the nominal queen of Demarco Mount is Hiddy. She can handle this; it has nothing to do with me."

Having said that, he continued fishing.

Iwan Martinez didn’t bother, sitting on the ground, eating meat and drinking merrily.

"Silvio Reed is here."

Just then, Jovany Leopold ran over, gasping for breath, and reported: "Someone found Silvio Reed on the Mountain of Leaving. He didn’t die, and... seems to have possessed the Blood Soul Emperor."

"What!"

Julius Reed’s fishing rod shook slightly.

"Are you certain?"

He stood up, tossed the rod to Iwan Martinez, seething with rage.

Silvio Reed deserved death!

Yet Julius Reed hadn’t anticipated that Silvio Reed would possess the Blood Soul Emperor.

Thinking through it, he had probably killed the Blood Soul Emperor back then!

What a clever escape tactic!

"Ninety percent sure. Also, Madam Hiddy... the new holy leader has already led people to check the situation down the mountain." Jovany Leopold reported all matters concerning Demarco Mount.

"If Silvio Reed isn’t dead, I won’t let him leave Demarco Mount alive this time."

Julius Reed’s eyes seemed to flicker with flames.

He clasped the Emerald King’s Sword, stepped on the water, heading straight for the Mountain of Leaving!
