Chapter 839: Chapter 839 Cheers
"You’re going back to Azure Mountain?"
Julius Reed was just about to ask, but Nelson had already hung up the phone on the other end.
Very decisive.
Not giving him any chance to say another word.
"Why choose to return now, neither earlier nor later, but precisely at this point in time?"
Julius Reed’s brows furrowed slightly.
He remembered that when Nelson first came to Gonzalez City, she seemed determined to stop at nothing to achieve her goal.
Now she’s suddenly going back?
Impossible.
When he tried to call again, Nelson had already turned off her phone.
"Divine Dragon Tripod!"
Julius Reed punched a tree.
The damned woman, daring to blackmail him.
He may have recalled a bit about the incident ten years ago, but many memories were still blank.
Looking at the present, only Nelson would know some of the truth and was on his side.
"Phew!"
Taking a deep breath, Julius Reed chose to compromise.
Truth!
He must know the truth!
From the words of Arden Wood and Wyatt Carmichael, Julius Reed could tell that turmoil had already started in the martial world.
The reemergence of the Divine Dragon Tripod was bound to cause strife.
And as the person involved, he couldn’t even clearly remember what the Divine Dragon Tripod looked like.
Frustrating!
When he got to the street, Julius Reed hailed a taxi and headed straight to the Initial Heart Hotel.
All the way there, his mind was preoccupied with the matter.
Ten years ago, the Divine Dragon Tripod was lost.
This led to the elixir that was supposed to prolong Granny Xihua’s life not being delivered on time.
Afterwards, it caused Granny Xihua’s betrayal.
And then there was Isabella Warm’s mysterious disappearance.
Pain!
Julius Reed felt like his head was about to explode.
Half an hour later.
The taxi stopped in front of Initial Heart Hotel.
But.
In such a large hotel, only the light in one room was on.
Very strange.
No cars at the entrance of the hotel.
Whoosh...
A gust of cold wind blew by, and Julius Reed felt something was off.
He took out his phone, but Nelson was still unreachable.
If it were somebody else here today, Julius Reed would definitely think they had been kidnapped.
But that was Nelson.
The Saintess of Azure Mountain.
Perhaps someone could capture her, but no one could make her submit.
After taking a deep breath, Julius Reed cautiously entered the Initial Heart Hotel.
The hotel lights were dim.
There was only one clerk at the front desk.
"Sir, may I have your name, please?"
"Julius Reed."
Julius Reed looked around cautiously.
No danger.
But at this time slot, in such a vast Initial Heart Hotel with hundreds of rooms, only one had its lights on.
Something was not right!
"Please follow me."
The clerk came out, bowed deeply to Julius Reed, "Miss Nelson is waiting for you upstairs."
"Are there no other guests in your hotel today?"
Julius Reed asked.
"Sorry, we can’t discuss the privacy of our guests," replied the clerk with an apologetic smile, then hurriedly walked ahead.
Taking the elevator, they soon arrived at the seventh floor.
There were no lights in the hallway.
It was extremely dim.
"Miss Nelson is waiting for you in room 707."
After saying that, the receptionist turned around and went back into the elevator.
In the empty corridor, only Julius Reed was left.
Creak...
Just then, a door slowly opened, revealing the pink light inside the room.
"707."
Julius Reed quickly walked forward, confirming that the door number was indeed 707.
"Nelson, what are you playing at..."
He pushed open the door, but before he could finish his sentence, he was stunned speechless.
In the room.
Under the pink lighting, Nelson had her hair in twin ponytails, wearing a low-cut, black mini dress...
Two long legs encased in black stockings were bent on the bed, her eyes looking at herself, hazy.
"Dragon King, have you arrived?"
Nelson swirled the wine glass in her hand, speaking softly.
"Sorry, I still have things to do..."
Julius Reed turned around, about to leave.
That’s when he heard Nelson’s voice come from behind him.
"Three and a half years ago, I once saved someone from Seven Clouds Academy. About ten years ago..."
"What exactly happened ten years ago?"
Julius Reed turned back around, feeling somewhat...
Uncomfortable.
The entire room was bathed in dim pink light, making him feel a little suffocated.
"Come over, sit down."
Nelson patted the bed beside her, whispering, "Otherwise, you may leave."
Having said that.
She gently pressed her red lips against the rim of the wine glass, leaving a faint lipstick mark.
Nelson was already petite, but now dressed in black stockings and twin ponytails, coupled with a low-cut mini dress.
Her sultry figure was unmistakably obvious.
And with the suggestive hue of the ambient light...
"Are you threatening me?"
Julius Reed took a deep breath, standing at the door hesitating.
"No..."
Nelson stepped down from the bed lightly and stood by the window: "If you want to go, then go. If you want to stay, then stay."
"I once had no choice."
Julius Reed inhaled deeply, his hands pocketed: "Now, it seems I have no choice either."
If he left, Nelson would definitely not tell him anything.
To stay...
Julius Reed thought it wouldn’t be a problem.
Not to mention his strong willpower, if Nelson had any inappropriate thoughts, he would just turn around and leave.
Right now, if he wanted to leave, Nelson couldn’t keep him.
"Speak."
Whoosh!
Julius Reed closed the door and approached Nelson: "Consider it a favor I owe you, but don’t test my limits."
"Rest assured."
Nelson turned around, her eyes dreamy as she drew a heart on Julius’s chest: "In this world, who could force the Dragon King to do something he doesn’t enjoy?"
"Glad you know."
Julius Reed stepped back, watching her warily: "What exactly happened ten years ago?"
"Don’t rush..."
Nelson sat on the edge of the bed, picking up a glass of wine: "Have a drink."
"Are you going to talk or not..."
Julius Reed’s eyes narrowed into slits, a surge of killing intent appearing on his body.
"You’re truly domineering, Dragon King," Nelson said with a hint of grievance: "This is the first time I, Nelson, have asked someone for help, and yet you’re still so tough. If someone didn’t know, they’d think I’m the one in need of something."
"Forget about the drink."
Julius Reed felt somewhat suffocated in this dim room.
He walked to the window, wanting to open it.
"It’s cold..."
Nelson gently placed her hands on his shoulders, her bosom squeezing out a curve.
"The mighty Dragon King worried I might poison you?"
She chuckled lightly: "The high and mighty Sovereign is nothing but a coward."
"I’ll drink," Julius Reed took the wine glass: "But let’s make it clear, after I drink, you can’t use any more excuses to prevaricate."
He was immune to all poisons.
Having lived for tens of thousands of years, his body had developed immunity to all the toxins in the world.
Otherwise, in Medicine King Valley, he wouldn’t be snacking on poisons like they were nothing.
"How dare I..."
Nelson raised her glass, clinking it against Julius Reed’s: "To celebrate me..."
"What?"
Julius Reed raised an eyebrow, questioning.
"It’s nothing..."
The corner of Nelson’s mouth lifted into an arc.
"Cheers."
"Cheers."
Clang.
The wine glasses touched.
Both drank up in one gulp.
"Now, tell me."
Julius Reed set the glass on the windowsill.
The wine was a bit bitter, but he didn’t mind.
Right now, his mind was filled with matters from ten years ago!
"Ten years ago, the illustrious Sovereign of the Ten Thousand Mountain Alliance adopted the alias ’Mad Dragon’ and came to the martial world to establish Seven Clouds Academy."
While speaking, Nelson slowly began to undo the straps of her black mini skirt.
