Legend of Dragon Son-in-law - Chapter 1490: 1490 The Dignity-Stripped Saint Lord

Chapter 1490: Chapter 1490 The Dignity-Stripped Saint Lord

“Why can’t it be me?” the woman retorted.

“I didn’t expect it to be you.” Julius Reed’s face suddenly flushed red.

He instinctively looked around.

Thankfully, someone nearby pulled up the cloth curtain.

Shame!

The dignified Holy Lord, and yet…

Sigh!

His face still burned painfully hot.

“Then who did you think it was?” Nelson couldn’t help but pout, “You brute, compensate me for the new clothes.”

“Wait here, I’ll go get you an outfit first.” Julius Reed was clearly just looking for an excuse to make a clean getaway.

Pretending to be clueless comes in handy sometimes.

“Stop right there!” Nelson let out a cold hum, “What is it? Trying to dodge responsibility again?”

“No way!” Julius Reed coughed lightly, adopting a lofty tone, “Thank you.”

“A thank you?” Nelson burst into laughter.

She really enjoyed teasing Julius Reed.

Only in moments like this would the grand Holy Lord end up completely flustered.

“Be serious!” Julius Reed’s face reddened!

Too hot!

Killing people would be easier—this woman is too difficult!

“Why are you here?”

Julius Reed was very surprised by Nelson’s arrival.

Before coming to Swimming City, Julius Reed had arranged for Nelson to expose the fake Divine Dragon Tripod to Solaris Grove, taking the opportunity to let it be brought back to The North Sea.

Afterward, it would spark a war between The North Sea and Andrew.

And at the same time, it would let the world know that the Divine Dragon Tripod was in Swimming City!

The factions of West Sea, Ten Thousand Mountain Alliance, and others would all come rushing in!

Creating an unprecedented chaos.

But from that point on, he had been busy dealing with all sorts of affairs, and hadn’t maintained much contact with Nelson.

Still, in his heart, both Quella Radcliffe and Nelson were the two women who concerned him the most.

One was his wife; the other was a woman who had repeatedly put herself in harm’s way and would even sacrifice her life for him.

A woman like that couldn’t be let down.

Julius Reed would rather bear the accusations of being a scoundrel than break Nelson’s heart.

Moreover.

Anyone who dared criticize the Holy Lord would face the blade.

Dead men don’t chatter.

“The news that the Holy Lord isn’t dead has spread far and wide. Since you’re not trying to conceal yourself, I was worried you’d be in danger, so I rushed here overnight. And now, seeing you, you act like you’ve lost your mind.” Nelson’s tone carried a touch of grievance.

Stupid man, doesn’t know how to appreciate beauty!

“My master, the Southern Sea Hermit Nun, called and asked if I was by your side.” She dressed neatly, waved gently, and the cloth curtains were immediately removed.

“Master, even though she’s far away on Azure Mountain, found out about this matter instantly. The Sealing Dragon Platform stretches for eight hundred miles—well played by you.”

Nelson moved closer, gently brushing her finger along Julius Reed’s face, “Looks like you’ve gotten darker.”

“Doesn’t seem so.” Julius Reed pulled out his phone to get a closer look at himself.

“Really gotten darker?”

Suddenly, he frowned slightly.

“The veil color faded.”

While in Swimming City, he had been wearing a veil on his face the entire time.

Looking at the texture, was he really darker?

Clearly it was just the cheap veil fading its color.

“Uh… Dignified Holy Lord, and yet you don’t use decent materials.” Nelson was first dumbfounded, then burst out laughing.

No matter how formidable someone was, they always had an endearing side.

“Don’t tell me you got it from a bargain store?” She reached out, and a maid immediately handed her a damp towel.

“Let me wipe it for you. This is a makeup remover I use on Azure Mountain—works wonderfully.” Nelson carefully wiped his face, and soon all the black marks were gone.

“All these people with you?” Julius Reed’s heart warmed; under the circumstances where Swimming City surrounded him with enemies, having someone trustworthy like this was extremely comforting.

“Damn Terry Moore!” Julius Reed couldn’t help cursing.

The veil had obviously come from Terry Moore.

Claiming it was an essential for martial artists traveling the jianghu.

What he didn’t know was, that veil had been part of a freebie from Karen’s spa package!

Purely a promotional item.

Worn solely to avoid being recognized by acquaintances.

“I am Azure Mountain’s saintess. Traveling without attendants would bring shame to Azure Mountain.” Nelson casually tossed the towel, and the maid respectfully caught it.

“Master said, you also count as Azure Mountain’s son-in-law now. If you ever run into trouble, she will step in to help.” Nelson kept her gaze on Julius Reed’s face, speaking with a blissful expression, “Master also mentioned that Boulevard’s Caldwell Family took away a lot of her money; she can’t swallow her bitterness. When you have time, help her vent her frustrations.”

“That old nun plays mahjong!” Julius Reed did know members of the Caldwell Family from Boulevard, but they were nothing short of a hot potato!

“She’s my master!” Nelson turned serious, feigning anger.

Nelson’s black stockings and twin ponytails were lethal to anyone!

“Alright! I welcome your presence, but Swimming City is dangerous, and I don’t want my women to face any harm,” Julius Reed said earnestly as he looked at Nelson, “I can handle it myself.”

Nelson’s body trembled.

Her eyes turned red.

Your woman?

This sentence—she had waited for it for so long!

“What’s wrong?” Julius Reed asked in surprise, “Your eyes?”

Nelson burst into tears yet smiled.

Julius Reed panicked.

Not this again!

Can’t we change the subject?

Suddenly.

The two turned, only to see a woman standing at the doorway.

Gabriel Young!

“Uh… As long as you’re okay, that’s good.” Gabriel Young stood there awkwardly.

Was that woman his wife?

So beautiful!

She instinctively looked at herself.

Sigh.

She didn’t seem to hold any advantage.

“Let me introduce her. This is the mistress of the Young Family, and a friend of mine, Gabriel Young,” Julius Reed said. Nelson nodded before striding up assertively, extending her hand and introducing herself with a smile, “Nelson, saintess of Azure Mountain, also his woman.”

A woman’s intuition was sharply accurate.

It was a clash!

Nelson strongly declared her dominance.

And Gabriel Young did not back down in the slightest!

“I’m Gabriel Young. Mistress of Swimming City’s Young Family, and I’ve shared the same bed as him.”

Nelson turned to look at Julius Reed.

Murderous intent!

“The distinguished Saint of the Ten Thousand Mountain Alliance wouldn’t dare act without owning up, would he?” Gabriel Young retorted.

In this world, anything excellent is always fought over.

The Divine Dragon Tripod, the Azure Emperor’s ancient tomb!

If no one fought for it, it would mean it lacked value!

The same applied to people!

Gabriel Young pressed further, “He deceived me!”

Julius Reed felt like he was being tortured.

Women!

Such a hassle!

If they were enemies, two sword strikes would solve it!

Easy fix!

“My head hurts!” He exclaimed painfully, lying on the ground.

No one paid him any attention.

“I, Julius Reed, conduct my affairs without needing to explain to you two women!” Julius Reed said before awkwardly standing up from the ground, grabbing his sword, and walking toward the Cook Family!

This frustration could only be vented on the Cook Family!

I’m the Holy Lord of the Ten Thousand Mountain Alliance!

Such disrespect!

Where could I put my dignity?

Thankfully no one saw!

Despite his exterior, Julius Reed couldn’t harden his heart when dealing with Nelson.

A hardened warrior still has a tender side.

Let alone himself?

Boom!

A loud blast.

The Mat Hall was blown to smithereens.

The members of the Cook Family stood outside the Mat Hall, utterly dumbfounded.

That saved some trouble.

Even Gino Cook, whose body had been laid out in the Mat Hall, was blown into ashes.

Saved on cremation costs too.

“Family Head, ascended!”

After a long silence!

Kenzo Cook knelt on the ground, tearfully shouting.
