<h4>Chapter 2321: Chapter 2321: Cooperation</h4>


    "You said..." Itai Huntington was instantly a bit scared.


    From the moment Julius Reed walked in, she noticed.


    Even though it was a stranger’s face, the familiar aura was impossible for anyone else to have.


    Itai Huntington is one of the closest people to Julius Reed and is very aware of Julius Reed’s secrets.


    The Thousand Faces Spirit was something she had witnessed before.


    So, even if someone looks just like Julius Reed, Itai Huntington would not easily trust them.


    After spending a long time with the same person, every word and action, she could recognize whether it was him.


    Julius Reed’s disguise might fool Steve Dragon, but not Itai Huntington.


    Itai Huntington remained calm on the outside because she understood that for Julius Reed to act this way, there must be something very serious going on; otherwise, he would not show up this way.


    Now, she could finally speak.


    She even forgot the wounds on her body.


    "I... I drank it a month ago. He drank half a cup in front of me, and my secretary drank it without any issues."


    Itai Huntington exined the situation at the time.


    "That potion is not some magical cure. After drinking it, one bes temporarily immune to all poisons, but ten yearster, your bloodstream will be as clear as water, and you will die."


    When Julius Reed finished, Itai Huntington’s face turned pale, somewhat at a loss.


    "How... how could this happen!" She was almost in tears.


    Anyone learning such news would be terrified.


    "Don’t panic, listen to me first." Julius Reed reassured her, "I have a way, trust me, I won’t let anything happen to you. Next, I’ll protect you, but you need to pretend to know nothing, and continue to cooperate with him, understand?"


    "Okay." Itai Huntington’s eyes struggled. She hesitated for a moment and finally reached out her hands, hugging Julius Reed tightly.


    "Hey, don’t do that." Julius Reed said, but he didn’t push her away, letting Itai Huntington lie against him.


    "It’s okay. Trust me, I will definitely protect you."


    Julius Reed patted her on the head.


    The more enemies around, the more one values their intimatepanions.


    "Alright, they’ll start suspecting soon, let’s go quickly." Julius Reed extended his sleeve to wipe her tears, then reached out to touch the blood on Itai Huntington’s neck, and licked a bit.


    Afterwards, he slightly frowned.


    "Sure enough, there’s something wrong with your blood. This old guy is really courting death." Julius Reed’s face wore a cold smile; he intended to uncover the secrets of the Wand n and then destroy thempletely!


    The previous act of cutting Itai Huntington’s skin with the vase was to prove this matter, but if Itai Huntington bled inside, it would surely arouse suspicion.


    So Julius Reed cut Itai Huntington’s neck in front of the Tang suit-d elder.


    "Let’s go."


    Julius Reed turned around, reverting to his former cold demeanor.


    The door opened. The Tang suit-d elder still sat in his chair, eyes fixed on the door.


    And Steve Dragon stood behind the elder, arms crossed, holding an iron rod in his arms.


    "Tell me, what are your thoughts now?" The elder’s face always bore a kind smile, approachable.


    Yet beneath this smile hides a demon!


    A truly terrifying demon!


    "I understand now!"


    Julius Reed stepped in front of the elder, quickly drawing a golden handgun, pressing it against his head!


    "You!"


    Bang!


    Julius Reed kicked out, briefly forcing Steve Dragon back!


    "Anyone moves, he dies!"


    "You better not act rashly!" Steve Dragon hesitated. He wanted to advance, the distance within reach, if it were an ordinary person, he could easily break their arm.


    But now...


    The opponent is a master!


    He wasn’t confident.


    He couldn’t bear the responsibility of a n leader dying due to his mistake.


    "Why? You really want to kill me?"


    The Tang suit-d elder squinted his eyes, power began to surge.


    Outsiders couldn’t see it at all, but Julius Reed understood clearly what it meant.


    The elder’s capabilities were terrifying, far surpassing Steve Dragon!


    At this moment, he just hadn’t acted.


    "I want fifty percent." Julius Reed said calmly.


    "What?" The elder was initially stunned, then his body quickly lost its murderous intent.


    Vanished without a trace.


    He frowned and shook his head, "Impossible, you can kill me. My bottom line to you is twenty percent! Do you know what twenty percent means? It means you will have untold wealth! People shouldn’t be greedy!"


    For those seeking wealth, they wouldn’tmit murder now.


    If he were dead, the opponent would receive not a cent, obviously not meeting expectations.


    The elder knew he was safe, so there was no need to exert any force.


    Putting on an act was enough.


    "Fifty percent! I’m saying it for thest time, if you don’t agree, I’ll blow your brains out!" Julius Reed said coldly, "You told me, I can’t live under others all my life. So now, I’m acting ording to what you said. Asking for fifty percent isn’t excessive. I’ll count to three..."


    "One!"


    Julius Reed began counting.


    The people from the Wand n beside him were anxiously worried.


    "Two!"


    The elder slowly closed his eyes, not looking.


    "Three!"


    At the third number, Julius Reed pulled the trigger.


    "I agree!"


    Bang!


    The gun fired!


    At the moment the elder spoke, Julius Reed shifted the gun’s aim, and the bullet hit the wall!


    This frightened plenty.


    Even the elder wasn’t calm.


    He reached out and grabbed the gun!


    His own power, exposed.


    The result was good, the man in front of him hadn’t nned on killing him, but he had lost.


    This was humiliating!


    The elder remembered this humiliation, intending to repay it double!


    "Just a split second more, if you hadn’t agreed, I was ready to kill you."


    Julius Reed smiled, pretending not to know about the elder revealing his power.


    "Fifty percent, we will cooperate smoothly. But your fifty percent, I don’t quite trust. I’ll be visiting frequently here, and I will definitely check the ounts."


    Julius Reed put away the gun, speaking lightly.


    "Youthful heroes indeed! So impressive, in the end, I... in the end, I am still afraid of death. But since I’ve spoken, I am a man of my word, so shall we talk?"


    The elder took a deep breath, speaking calmly, "Open and honest? Then, can I know who sent you?"


    The fox’s tail couldn’t be hidden.


    Julius Reedughed inwardly but still answered expressionlessly, "A woman, I don’t know her name, but I know she’s very powerful."


    "A woman?" The elder frowned slightly, "That’s... too unbelievable. Working for someone you don’t understand?"


    "That woman calls herself the Empress and she has very terrifying abilities! You know, she can know what someone is thinking, I’m very scared. But I remember..."


    "Remember what?" As soon as the elder heard, his heart skipped a beat, eagerly asking, "What! Tell me!"


    "She often talks to herself, saying something about the Ten Thousand Mountain Alliance... something about my Dragon Dance..."


    As Julius Reed said this, the elder suddenly stood up!
