Jovany Leopold always felt Merrill Caldwell was different from what he remembered.

A little girl, yet her assassin was a top-tier strongman in this world!

She could remain calm even when the assassin was less than a meter away.

Then there’s Demarco Mount, who yells at him that he’s a loser all day, and Grace River, who always points a sword at his neck.

All these women around Julius Reed, what kind of oddballs are they?

None of them are normal, just like his mom!

A decent man who doesn’t like meekness or wooing, only enjoys wielding blades and firearms!

"Anyway... thanks." Jovany Leopold stood up, wincing from the pain.

"Julius Reed arranged for me to help out if the Yellow Sand Monster couldn’t manage it, and the problem is resolved now. If the other side comes again, I won’t be able to hold them off."

He clasped his hands, chuckling: "I’ll be off now!"

"Alright, take care." 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺

Merrill Caldwell nodded, unperturbed.

Still, she sent over some clothes.

She couldn’t let Jovany Leopold wear ragged clothes in the freezing snow.

After leaving Boulevard Mountain, Jovany Leopold quickly took out a satellite phone and dialed.

"The job’s done, though I’m a bit injured. But I warn you, Silvio Reed’s men never face total annihilation. This time, he’s bound to set his sights on Boulevard Mountain."

Jovany Leopold shared his concerns and recounted the battle briefly to Julius Reed.

However, surprisingly, Julius Reed paid no attention.

Then hung up.

Though Jovany Leopold was bewildered, he still got in the car, ready to leave.

But just as he was about to start the vehicle.

A sudden gust of yellow sand attacked.

Instantly, the car window shattered!

Jovany Leopold felt an invisible force pulling him out!

"Marcellus Lopez! Let’s be clear, we have no grudge! I’m against Silvio Reed too, we’re friends!"

He shouted loudly!

Jovany Leopold’s feet left the ground, hovering in midair, a bit uneasy.

He was still hurt.

Besides, Marcellus Lopez was unpredictable, often killing people; encountering him was frightening.

"I didn’t say I’d kill you."

Marcellus Lopez appeared suddenly, the surrounding sandstorm diminished, allowing Jovany Leopold to open his eyes.

"Then what’s the meaning of grabbing me?"

Jovany Leopold raised an eyebrow: "You’re not going to start a war with Julius Reed, are you? No matter what grudges you have, I’m innocent."

"Why do you, an ancient martial artist, talk so much!" Marcellus Lopez was very impatient; he thought ancient martial artists were resilient and strong!

But unexpectedly, this young man in front of him started blabbering even before he could explain.

So noisy!

He didn’t know that Jovany Leopold was still alive only because, during the assassination of Julius Reed, he directly surrendered.

Otherwise, his grave grass would be meters high now.

"General King, you’re Silvio Reed’s mortal enemy, if you kill me now, Julius Reed will surely object. We’re not talking about your toughness, is my life worth it? Just killing me, what good does it do you?"

Jovany Leopold spoke helplessly: "Right? I’m not wrong, am I?"

"You... talk too much." Marcellus Lopez’s tone was full of dissatisfaction.

"So, General King, what are you catching me for?" Jovany Leopold chuckled: "I’m still injured here."

"You won’t die." Marcellus Lopez breathed on his wound.

Amazingly, the wound magically healed.

"Now, you’re not injured anymore."

Marcellus Lopez coldly said: "I need to borrow something from you, bear with it. Relax, I won’t harm you."

After speaking, from his skull radiated a dazzling light!

The golden light directly entered Jovany Leopold’s eyes!

Very quickly, he finished.

"Just checking your memory, nothing major."

Marcellus Lopez finished speaking and vanished from Boulevard Mountain.

Leaving Jovany Leopold sweating profusely.

Staring at the disappearing yellow sand, he gasped in shock: "Julius Reed, you’re amazing! You even predicted he’d search my memory!"

He said, removing a contact lens from his eye.

Inside it is high-tech developed by Shadow Kims, specifically against such ancient techniques.

...

"Trent Marsh, you deceived me."

Marcellus Lopez’s sandstorm appeared where there was no snow.

Trent Marsh stood before him.

"I didn’t deceive you, General King, I genuinely wish to cooperate with you." Trent Marsh asked confusedly: "What happened?"

"You said you had no relationship with Julius Reed. You said Julius Reed had no feelings for Nelson, you said Julius Reed cared a lot about Merrill Caldwell?"

Marcellus Lopez questioned sentence by sentence.

"Indeed, I didn’t lie to you." Trent Marsh sincerely said: "You are my elder, I respect you greatly. Also, I sympathize with your past situation deeply, now our cooperation is indisputable."

"Then tell me, did Julius Reed save you?" Marcellus Lopez asked harshly.

"This... during Mont’s incident there was once." Trent Marsh was very curious what exactly Marcellus Lopez encountered this time.

"Good, you’ve been through life and death together! Trent Marsh, you’re Julius Reed’s spy, right? Although I cooperate with him, it doesn’t mean I’ll spare someone who plays tricks on me." As Marcellus Lopez spoke, the yellow sand enveloped Trent Marsh.

"You said Merrill Caldwell is the woman he cares for, but in fact, Julius Reed hasn’t even slept with her. Isn’t that right!"

Marcellus Lopez questioned angrily!

"General King, I think in this..."

"Answer my question!"

Marcellus Lopez shouted angrily.

"Indeed, Merrill Caldwell and Julius Reed should not have had any encounters, but that doesn’t stop him from caring about her." Trent Marsh felt something was off.

He clenched his hands, feeling the pressure around.

"An emperor, if he likes a woman, would he avoid touching her? He stayed in the Southeast to protect Nelson! Nelson, he has had a relationship with her! So he didn’t come to Boulevard but stayed in the Southeast!"

Marcellus Lopez became more agitated: "He’s testing if I’d capture Merrill Caldwell. If I fell for your story and captured Merrill Caldwell, then instead of gaining anything, I’d lose everything, offend a strong enemy!"

"As for Demarco Mount, they truly have a relationship. You say Julius Reed doesn’t care about Demarco Mount, who has been to bed with him?"

Marcellus Lopez extended his hand, coldly saying: "Julius Reed pretended to be swordsman Piran Wilson to trick me, then I’ll first kill you the spy, then go capture Demarco Mount! As long as I control the woman he cares for, I can make him help me take down Silvio Reed!"

"So, you must die!"

Marcellus Lopez’s eyes shot out golden light!

But at that moment.

Trent Marsh suddenly crouched, a mist exploded behind him!

Boom!

A low, muffled sound followed!

Marcellus Lopez was nearly torn apart!
