?Chapter 1148: Chapter 1148: Poisonous Chapter 1148: Chapter 1148: Poisonous “Hello, may I ask if this is Mr.
Reed’s home?”
Gonzalez City, on the outskirts of Julius Reed’s small Western-style house.
Two men in ck suits were shouting out.
This was an independent mansion surrounded by an upscale neighborhood.
But today, there was no one at the door.
?ον?ο.?0
The Willson Pavilion disciples who usually guarded this ce had long since vanished.
“Senior brother, let’s go in and take a look.”
Ian Radcliffe spoke softly.
“Uh-huh.
Proceed with caution.
After all, he is a former holy master.
Once we deal with him, then we’ll go find Mad Dragon.” Guillen Tennyson nodded and scaled the wall.
Compared to Mad Dragon, the two nned to secretly kill the holy master of the Ten Thousand Mountain Alliance first.
After all, Absolute Dust hade to Gonzalez City to seek revenge on Julius Reed before dying.
It was hard to say if there was no connection between Mad Dragon and Julius Reed.
And when they scoped out the situation, they also saw that the headquarters of Seven Clouds Academy on the upper floors of the Five-state International building was guarded.
Thus, they set their target on Julius Reed.
After entering the courtyard, they remained extremely cautious.
After all, they were facing a former holy master.
Even Lowell Tennyson had to bow its head to such a presence in the past.
But outside, there was no one.
It was quiet to a frightening degree.
“Let’s go!”
Ian Radcliffe signaled with his eyes and leaped up, smashing through the ss and rolling into the second floor.
“Who…”
Thud!
Que Radcliffe, who was eating an apple, dropped it to the ground at the sight of the intruder.
Before she could react, a longsword shing with a cold light was already held to her throat.
“Name.”
Ian Radcliffe asked coldly.
Behind him, Guillen Tennyson followed suit.
“Que Radcliffe…” Que Radcliffe trembled as she raised her hands, her eyes filled with terror.
“Julius Reed’s wife?” Guillen Tennyson picked up a banana from the coffee table and ate it.
Sitting on the couch, he casually crossed his legs: “So, where’s Julius Reed?
We’re short on time.
Miss, please don’t test my patience.”
Beforeing, they had thoroughly investigated Julius Reed, including his acquaintances, wife, subordinates, and understood them like the back of their hand.
They had expected a fierce battle, but never imagined they would catch Que Radcliffe so easily.
ording to the information, Julius Reed cared deeply for Que Radcliffe.
Controlling Que Radcliffe essentially meant controlling Julius Reed.
“Where are the others?”
Ian Radcliffe asked, though his sword remained firmly against Que Radcliffe’s throat.
It seemed that he feared being deceived, he took out his phone andpared the photo on the screen.
It was indeed Julius Reed’s wife, Que Radcliffe.
Facing an ordinary woman, Ian Radcliffe naturally didn’t have to be anxious; he drove his sword into the floor and stood in front of Que Radcliffe.
For such a mundane person, even if they were holding a knife less than a centimeter from him,
Ian Radcliffe could end their life with a single stroke of his sword!
“They…
went out to eat…” Que Radcliffe stammered.
“Where’s Julius Reed?” Ian Radcliffe stood by the window, looking around for any ambush.
Such coincidence was to the misfortune of Julius Reed.
“He’s…
in the Five-river Province,” Que Radcliffe said, eyes filled with fear, her body trembling uncontrobly.
“Call him back!”
Guillen Tennyson tossed the banana peel into a trash can and casually picked up another apple.
They hadn’t had the chance to stop and eat fruit along the way.
Now with free fruit avable, of course he would feast.
“That…
the fruit has poison…” Que Radcliffe pointed at the fruit tray, speaking softly.
“What?”
Guillen Tennyson was initially stunned, then burst intoughter: “You’re quite the naive sweetheart!
I, for one, have never heard such idiotic remarks in all my years walking the earth.”
After saying this, he bit into the apple with gusto: “Poisoned, yet howe I’m fine?
Hurry up!
Call Julius Reed, tell him toe back!”
Ian Radcliffe crossed his arms, leaning against the balcony: “Notify Julius Reed within a minute.
Otherwise, my sword might not show mercy.”
“Okay, I’ll call!”
Trembling, Que Radcliffe picked up the phone on the table and dialed Julius Reed’s number.
“Hello, is that my wife?”
Julius Reed’s voice came through the phone.
“Hello, Holy Master!”
Ian Radcliffe picked up the phone, sneering: “Your wife’s in my hands, feeling any thoughts now?”
Having said that, he handed the phone to Que Radcliffe.
“Say a few words to your husband, this might very well be yourst words.”
“Hubby save me!
Please,e save me quickly…”
Que Radcliffe immediately broke down in tears,pletely distraught.
Seeing her in this state made Ian Radcliffe very pleased.
“Lord, consideringing back?”
“Sorry, I’m in Five-river Province and still have things to finish.
But don’t worry, I’ll arrange for someone to send you on your way,” Julius Reed said without a hint of panic.
Upon hearing this, Ian Radcliffe was stunned for a whole three seconds.
Didn’t the information say Julius Reed loved his wife very much?
What was this now…
Just like this?
Loved his wife?
He must have someone else on the side, right?
“Julius Reed, are you sure?
Don’t you believe I could kill her with one strike right now?”
Ian Radcliffe was somewhat angered.
“Look at the doorway.”
From the phone, Julius Reed had barely finished speaking.
Click!
The door was opened.
A woman was standing at the doorway.
“Lillian Tompson, take care of the things at home for me.
I’m a bit busy outside.
After I return, just give me the answer directly.”
After finishing speaking, the phone was abruptly hung up by Julius Reed.
“Who!”
sh!
Ian Radcliffe swiftly stepped forward, fiercely drawing his longsword.
He could sense that the opponent was a Grandmaster!
A Grandmaster-level expert!
And Guillen Tennyson also got up.
But as he stood, he felt dizzy and disoriented.
“Brother!”
Ian Radcliffe rushed over, supporting Guillen Tennyson.
“Are you alright?”
“I feel weak all over…”
Guillen Tennyson said in pain, “I can’t move…”
“How dare you intrude into the Lord’s private residence uninvited!” Lillian Tompson coldly spoke.
“Brother, wait until I kill this woman, then I’ll check on you!”
Ian Radcliffe held the sword with one hand, slowly walking towards Lillian Tompson.
Pfft!
But suddenly,
He shuddered in pain and turned around.
A dagger had pierced through his heart!
And the owner of the dagger
Was none other than Que Radcliffe who was crying before.
“You…”
Ian Radcliffe copsed unbelievably onto the sofa, his expression one of agony.
How could the opponent strike without him knowing?
“I?
Sorry, I am not Que Radcliffe?” The Night Fairy Gabriel Abernathy’s sleeves brushed over her face, revealing an entirely different visage.
The Night Fairy, skilled in stealth attacks!
She was indeed a Grandmaster, and could easily take a life when Ian Radcliffe’s attention was on Lillian Tompson.
The real Que Radcliffe had long been in a safe ce.
The moment the two from Lowell Tennyson had arrived at Gonzalez City, the Night Fairy had disguised herself as Que Radcliffe, sitting on the sofa, waiting to strike stealthily.
“You…”
Ian Radcliffe spouted fresh blood and died on the spot.
Dying resentfully.
Leaving only Guillen Tennyson, confused and unaware.
“From the moment you entered Five-river Province, the Lord had guessed your intentions,” Lillian Tompson said, stepping up to Guillen Tennyson and lifting his chin.
“The fruit in the fruit bowl is poisoned.
The poison’s name is Absolute Dust.
I think, you might have heard of it.”
“Absolute Dust…”
Guillen Tennyson trembled, “But…
wasn’t that extinct long ago…”
“Ignorant mortals,” Lillian Tompson snatched Guillen Tennyson by the neck and dragged him towards the stairwell.
“Now, I ask, you answer.”
Lillian Tompson took out a small knife, gently tracing it over Guillen Tennyson’s body.
“If you lie, I will make you regret it deeply.”
Half an hourter, Lillian Tompson, covered in blood, walked back into the room.
She took out a phone stained red with blood and called Julius Reed, “Lord, someone is framing us.
I’m still investigating who it is.”
