<strong>Chapter 1669: Chapter 1669: Companions</strong>


    This sword strike came without warning!


    Not only did the old man feel it was inexplicable, but even Baylor Davenport thought so!


    In a split second, Julius Reed’s Breaking Heaven Knife, disguised as a Breaking Heaven Sword, shed straight down!


    The old man didn’t hesitate for a moment and instantly countered with his sword!


    Within a second!


    The two shed swords ten times!


    ng!


    When the eleventh sword collided, the two finally separated.


    “Last time, you hid your strength.” Julius Reed, dressed in ck, stood on the snow, holding his sword with one hand, and spoke calmly.


    “I was blind to the mountain before me!” The old man knelt on one knee, holding his sword with both hands: “Greetings to…”


    “Old man, you’re too kind!” Julius Reed leaped forward, helped him up, and whispered, “The woman behind me is not one of us.”


    “Hmm.” Graham, with his intelligence, immediatelyughed and said, “It’s been a long time since west met, and I didn’t hear from you. I never expected to encounter you on the road to Boulevard Mountain.”


    Within the Seven Veins, Micah has two branches.


    Micah, and Graham Will.


    Back in Swimming City, the Micah Vein was exterminated.


    The treasure of the Micah Vein, the Nine Heavens Thorn, was taken by Julius Reed.


    Now this old man was the same Micah who once presented him with the Divine Dragon Tripod on the ice field.


    “I heard the Supreme Master was at Boulevard Mountain. I wanted to take a look,” Julius Reed sped his hands behind his back with a smile on his face.


    “Haha.” The old manughed heartily; it was a case of the real meeting the counterfeit.


    And the counterfeit had no idea.


    “I also heard about this, so I was ordered by… the Firebird to go to Boulevard and investigate.”


    “Her?” Julius Reed asked, slightly surprised: “She appeared?”


    Firebird, Phoenix!


    Hiddy!


    The old man had mentioned Hiddy before!


    And after Julius Reed regained his memories, he also recalled some memories about Hiddy.


    Not much, but enough.


    A thousand years ago, he had once crossed rivers and mountains with Hiddy!


    They had stood atop the highest peak and leaped down!


    Overlooking the earth.


    This intimacy made Julius Reed feel very warm.


    But all along, he had received no news of Hiddy.


    It seemed Hiddy did not want to appear.


    Hearing Graham’s words now, Julius Reed felt a bit excited.


    “But it seems she doesn’t want to see you.” Graham chuckled, revealing snow-white teeth. This old man didn’t seem old at all but rather had an air of youth with a sage-like demeanor.


    “Then take me to see her,” Julius Reed raised an eyebrow: “This is an order!”


    “I only follow her orders. Honestly, it’s better not to force things. Let things flow naturally to fruition.” Graham showed no emotional fluctuation and instead spoke cheerfully: “Actually, you two have already met.”


    “When?” Julius Reed suddenly felt a bit resentful about this mysterious woman.


    What are you hiding from.


    “The thing in your hand… is mine.” Graham pointed to the sword at Julius Reed’s waist, and Julius Reed immediately understood.


    Nine Heavens Thorn!


    The treasure of the Micah Vein!


    No wonder the Nine Heavens Thorn would blend yin and yang.


    It turns out Hiddy intervened and found the other de.


    “So what mission do you have on this trip?” Julius Reed approached, speaking in a voice only the two could hear: “Tell me.”


    “There’s no mission, just wandering.” Graham lowered his voice: “Pendleton issued a secret call, summoning the Seven Veins to gather at Boulevard Mountain to n a significant event.”


    “Seven Veins?” Julius Reed shook his head and said: “Who’s left in the Seven Veins? The Vein Holder of the Royal Vein was captured by them, the Micah Vein is nearly destroyed, Sealing Pulse is run by Devlin, Eagle Vein is under Isabe Warm. Bead Pulse broke off with Pendleton a long time ago, and Kyler Reed from the Night Vein is likely pursuing Devlin now. Who can Pendleton summon?”


    The Seven Veins of Pendleton, some have defected, others have died.


    Only Pendleton’s headquarter people remain.


    “Pendleton has already spread the word that whoever obtains a Seven-Vein Weapon can rescue the emperor! Now, the people of the Undead Tribe are hunting the Seven Veins!” Graham’s tone lowered significantly: “Trouble from the east side.”


    “Coincidentally, I have quite a few.” Julius Reed patted his waist, awkwardly realizing those swords weren’t with him. “Come with me, I’m going to Boulevard too.”


    “Isn’t this woman… your ex-wife?” Graham looked closely and suddenly said in surprise: “How did she change her identity and set herself up?”


    Julius Reed changed his appearance, but his skills were as sharp as ever.


    His presence was unique!


    It was this very reason Graham dared to confirm the person he was sparring with was the Supreme Master.


    As for the appearance, who in the Seven Veins didn’t know the scandal of the Night Vein.


    “Keep it down!” Julius Reed grabbed Graham’s shoulder, leaning to his ear: “Have you heard of Ocean Academy? This woman joined the Ocean Academy and even studied my Demarco Mount’s forbidden texts!”


    “Ocean Academy?” Graham thought carefully and nodded: “Ocean Academy, Crystal-Book Court, Cold Cloud Book Court, collectively known as the Three Great Courts, are renowned academies of the southern territory. However, these people aren’t active and confine themselves to the three southern cities, rarely involving themselves in world affairs. How do you know them, Supreme Master?”


    “It’s not that I know them; on my way to Boulevard, I unintentionally ran into people from Ocean Academy. The head of Ocean Academy showed me their internal information, iming they overthrew the Ten Thousand Mountain Alliance back in the day. Should I investigate?”


    The founders behind the Three Great Courts are the same. But for millennia, the couriers have been low-key, and few people know about them. Why has Ocean Academy suddenly emerged this year?” Graham looked at Baylor Davenport and muttered to himself: “What’s their purpose at the Boulevard gathering?”


    “Never mind, let’s talk on the road. This woman doesn’t know my identity, I’ll get some information.” Julius Reed gave Graham a knowing look and mounted a horse.


    “How did you get here?”


    He asked Graham.


    Graham whistled, and a small donkey with a bell around its neck came running happily.


    “This one!” Graham rode on the donkey.


    The donkey didn’t seem to suffer at all; instead, it was very cheerful, running inside with joy.


    …


    Two hundred kilometers outside Boulevard Mountain.


    On this in, there was a town.


    It was called Yarrow Town.


    As the name suggests, the climate here is severe.


    The ruler of the town was named Brighton Pendleton.


    Brighton Pendleton founded Martial Manor single-handedly, bing a famous figure below Boulevard Mountain.


    At this moment.


    Inside Martial Manor.


    Brighton Pendleton was holding his wife Lysander Caldwell’s hand, smiling and saying: “If this time our son can marry those sisters, it would indeed be an immense blessing. Then, our Taylor Family’s status at Boulevard Mountain would rise dramatically!”


    “But Thayne’s skills are indeed not top-notch.” Lysander Caldwell was a bit worried.


    “I’ve already sent people to block the road to Boulevard, so Thayne will have fewerpetitors. Even though you are not directly rted, the Caldwell Family must give you some face.” Brighton Pendleton had just finished speaking when he saw a guard running in from the doorway.


    “Master, an old man outside killed our people!”


    The guard knelt on the ground, face pale.


    Obviously frightened.


    “What! How dare anyone kill my people!” Brighton Pendleton was startled, then turned to the room, grabbing a long knife: “Come with me to kill him!”
