Chapter 2378: Lies

    <h4>Chapter 2378: Chapter 2378: Lies</h4>


    "Are you sure Trent Marsh was captured?" Julius Reed asked, wanting to confirm whether Dragon Dance was really deceiving him.


    Although there were many signs indicating Dragon Dance might be lying.


    But Julius Reed was kind-hearted; he wanted to give the woman another chance.


    Even though there was a high probability that she wouldn’t cherish it.


    "Right after you left, we were ambushed. Trent Marsh chose to stay behind to hold them off so I could deliver the message." Dragon Dance’s eyes were full of guilt and unease, but soon she regained herposure.


    "If we hadn’t discovered important information, I never would have returned. I don’t care about life or death anymore." Dragon Dance, worried that Julius Reed had doubts, exined, "They are Silvio Reed’s men! Believe me, Trent and I couldn’t have mistaken it."


    "Silvio Reed’s men?" Julius Reed knew this im might be false, but he was still somewhat surprised.


    He was surprised that Dragon Dance would pin the lie on Silvio Reed.


    This could only mean one thing: Dragon Dance knew about Silvio Reed’s fate.


    Only by knowing Silvio Reed’s life or death could she make a big deal out of it.


    Julius Reed decided to y along to glean more information.


    "How do you know it’s Silvio Reed? Is he actually not dead?"


    "I don’t know if Silvio Reed is dead or alive, but those people were his subordinates, including Finnegan Springs. They went mad trying to capture us, but not to kill." After a moment of thought, Dragon Dance added, "Maybe they want to take us somewhere."


    "Where?" Julius Reed decided to go along with the n.


    Beside him, Jayceon Rose continuously gave Julius Reed eye signals, almost rolling his eyes out.


    "I’ll give you a map. Follow the route on it and wait for me there." Julius Reed stuffed his phone into Jayceon Rose’s hand, "If you don’t want to die, get there quickly."


    "Why don’t we go together? He’s so weak; what if he encounters danger on the way..." Dragon Dance’s expression changed slightly.


    "No, I’d better go to a safe ce to wait for you." Jayceon Rose shook his head vigorously, "Those people are too dangerous. I’m a nobody; who would care about me? If you go, you can distract them, and it’s safest for me to leave on my own."


    He worried that Dragon Dance would sense something was amiss, so he found a very logical excuse.


    This excuse indeed seemed reasonable.


    "Not bad, we can attract the opponent’s pursuit. You shouldn’t have much trouble. Moreover, if you stay, I still have to protect you. In case of enemies, you’re truly a hindrance." Julius Reed strongly agreed, patting Jayceon Rose on the shoulder and whispering, "Go on."


    "I’m off." Jayceon Rose sped his fists and left quickly.


    Julius Reed did not move. He needed to stall for some time, allowing Jayceon Rose to reach a rtively safe position.


    Otherwise, once Dragon Dance started her n, killing Jayceon Rose to silence him would definitely be part of it.


    "We should get going." Dragon Dance watched Jayceon Rose leave, her expression somewhat gloomy.


    She was still by Julius Reed’s side, unable to openly issuemands.


    Nor could she actively pursue.


    "Don’t rush. Since they’ve captured Trent Marsh, they’re sure we will go to rescue him. If we go now, we’ll fall into their trap instead." Julius Reedforted, "Trent Marsh isn’t that easy to kill, and it seems they don’t n to kill him either, don’t they?"


    "But... this..."


    Dragon Dance wanted to refute, but it seemed what Julius Reed said was very reasonable. She really didn’t know how to counter it.


    If this dragged on, really unable to find Jayceon Rose, it would be like nting a time bomb.


    But Dragon Dance knew very well that if she got too anxious, it would easily expose her true intentions.


    About half an hour passed.


    Julius Reed ensured Jayceon Rose was safe before slowly standing up.


    He dusted off the area beneath him.


    Across from him, Dragon Dance’s face was full of resentment, but she could only endure it.


    Because in this half-hour, Julius Reed kept his eyes open, watching her.


    Dragon Dance couldn’t make any small moves.


    Strangely, in that half-hour, Faust Beaumont and his men had not appeared.


    Nor had Hill Leocadia shown up.


    They seemed to have vanished.


    "Let’s go." Julius Reed stretched his muscles and bones, "Can you find the exact location?"


    "Almost, I don’t remember the exact location, but I know the general area." Dragon Dance was anxious but had to maintain her disguise.


    Very exhausting.


    "Alright, let’s head over immediately."


    Julius Reed nodded.


    The two quickly disappeared into the woods, and during this time, Dragon Dance finally found the opportunity to send the message.


    Jayceon Rose, merely a mortal, would surely die.


    But she pitied herself for that half-hour.


    Soon, the two arrived in front of the Drunken Man Pavilion.


    "Is it this pavilion?" Julius Reed pointed at the Drunken Man Pavilion, frowning slightly, "An empty pavilion — where did the people go?"


    "I heard them mentioning a mechanism here before I left." Dragon Dance suddenly walked to the Stele and said seriously, "Do you know why I asked you toe to the Drunken Man Pavilion?"


    "You never mentioned it. I guessed you might be chased and wanted my help?" Julius Reed replied, "After all, those people are quite formidable."


    "No, you’re wrong." Dragon Dance shook her head, then nodded, "You’re not wrong either. I did want your help, but don’t you want to know why those people are after me?"


    "I’m all ears." Julius Reed stood in the pavilion, looking around.


    The pavilion was quite old and empty inside.


    Covered in dust.


    "I discovered Silvio Reed’s secret, so they came to kill me." Dragon Dance said, slowly turning the Stele.


    "Silvio Reed is hidden here. Those people captured Trent Marsh, probably also toe here. I didn’t borate earlier because of outsiders."


    Dragon Dance stepped into the hole and gestured for Julius Reed to follow.


    Julius Reed leaped down.


    And fell inside.


    Click!


    The entrance instantly closed.


    "But why are there still people chasing me?" Julius Reed retorted.


    "This..." Dragon Dance didn’t know how to answer. "I’m not sure, but Silvio Reed is down below."


    "Really?" Julius Reed asked again, "Should I believe you?"


    "You can trust me." Dragon Dance nodded, looking serious.


    "Alright, then I believe you. Silvio Reed is below; are we his match? Maybe we should just leave."


    Having said that, he turned to leave.


    "Don’t go! Silvio Reed is injured, but he wants to eliminate Trent Marsh because Trent might know a secret too." Dragon Dance said mysteriously, "Silvio Reed has reincarnated."


    "Reincarnated?" Julius Reed was quite certain this was a lie.


    But he wanted to hear what precisely this lie was.


    "Jesse River, he is Silvio Reed." Dragon Dance said with determination in her eyes, "Now, he’s waiting for us below."
