Legend of Dragon Son-in-law

“Black Dog! The Leopold Family has treated you well, and yet you betray us!”

Brayden Leopold appeared somewhat agitated while pressing the dart even tighter.

His eyes constantly surveilled Black Dog, attempting to detect a hint of betrayal on his face.

“Young master, men die for money as birds die for food. I, Black Dog, do this only in hopes that you will ascend to the position of Family Head and I too can enjoy the fruits of wealth and luxury! If you don’t believe me, you can shoot!”

The corners of Black Dog’s mouth trembled slightly, his heart pounding wildly.

He even profoundly regretted, regretted uttering those words that sealed his certain death!

“Do you really think these words of yours could get you beaten to death with sticks in the Leopold Family ancestral hall?”

Brayden Leopold growled softly.

The rules of the Leopold Family were strict, and the methods of executing traitors, even more horrifically striking!

Thus, over the years, no one had dared to harbor a second heart!

“Young master, I am but a menial servant! Even if you send me to the ancestral hall, aside from losing a dog’s life, what will you gain? Will the old master change his opinion of you because of a dog doomed to be destroyed like me?” Black Dog forced out a faint smile, “Such is an impossibility. The only thing that can allow you to make a comeback is this opportunity!”

Now that the bow was drawn, there was no turning back. If he persisted, there might be a glimmer of life!

But if he recanted, that would signify a complete and utter checkmate!

There would be no chance of survival!

“Indeed! Since it is so, then I shall send you on your way, to rid the Leopold Family of a disaster!”

Brayden Leopold narrowed his eyes and nodded, his finger placed on the trigger.

“Last chance, tell me, who sent you!”

“No one! If the young master wants to kill, then blame it on Black Dog for misjudging the person!”

Black Dog closed his eyes and leaned back in the chair, waiting for death.

Click!

Brayden Leopold pulled the trigger, and the sound of an empty chamber echoed forth.

But in that instant, Black Dog’s body quivered, a feeling of helplessness flooding through him.

“Black Dog, I can’t help but guard against you, wondering if someone else from the Leopold Family sent you to test me!”

Brayden Leopold sheathed the dart at his waist and said languidly, “Speak up, what are your thoughts?”

The overlap of Black Dog’s arrival with his own rebellious thoughts was far too coincidental.

At such a critical moment, he couldn’t trust anyone!

If it had been a test sent by the old master and he showed further signs of betrayal, wouldn’t he risk losing even his current status?

“Phew!”

Black Dog took a deep breath, struggling to calm his emotions.

“Young master, you scared me to death…”

His complexion was pale, his body uncontrollably trembling.

Just a moment ago, he really wanted to say he was sent by someone, but he held back.

It proved that Julius Reed was right; Brayden Leopold harbored thoughts of rebellion.

“It’s a special time, understand!”

Brayden Leopold casually tossed over a handkerchief and asked nonchalantly,

“What’s your plan?”

“Young master! I will handle this matter. If it fails, it has nothing to do with you! If it succeeds, all the credit is yours, and as long as you look after Black Dog once you become the Family Head, I will be fully satisfied!”

Black Dog patted his chest, regaining his previous composure.

Now that Brayden Leopold had taken the bait, there was nothing more to worry about.

As long as everything proceeded according to Julius Reed’s plan, he could push Brayden Leopold down a point of no return!

“Oh! Tell me how it’s done!”

Brayden Leopold’s eyes rolled as he pondered internally.

This was indeed a no-lose proposition!

After all, if anything went wrong, it had nothing to do with him!

The Black Dog is Atlas Leopold’s man, and since Atlas Leopold is still bedridden, it must be this servant acting on his own initiative.

If successful, he could claim that The Black Dog had long since defected to him, and now he was merely handling matters on his behalf!

All the merits would be his own, so what did he have to fear?

“I need your men! Just give me a team, and I guarantee the completion of the mission! Not only will I clear those who block the way for you, but I will also rescue Old Master of Leopold Family and safely deliver him to you.”

Desire blazed in The Black Dog’s eyes.

“Very well! Tomorrow, I will reveal to you the whereabouts of these men! Black Dog, remember this! If anything goes wrong, no one will save you!”

Brayden Leopold said in an icy tone.

He had to take a gamble!

Otherwise, he would be completely eliminated by the Leopold Family!

And he would lose everything he owned!

No guts, no glory!

As night fell, Julius Reed stood alone at the top of Pearl on the Water, surveying the night scene.

“Mr. Reed, the Leopold Family is in chaos now, everyone is eager to rescue Fernando Leopold!”

Miguel Abbott stood behind Julius Reed, reporting respectfully.

The longer he knew this young man, the more he admired him!

He even felt lucky about how wise his choice had been back then!

If he had chosen to oppose Julius Reed at first, he might have ended up just like Stanislaus Potter and Atlas Leopold, or even a scoundrel like Cesar Pendleton, who was still kneeling at his feet, no? What was Five-river Province, after all!

“As expected.”

Julius Reed nodded, without saying much more.

Through The Black Dog, he had learned in detail about every move of the Leopold Family.

He even knew clearly what was being said within the Leopold Family.

“What should we do? When two tigers fight, one is bound to get hurt! Stanislaus Potter is on a rampage right now, and the Leopold Family is no pushover either. Should we watch as events unfold, or should we take advantage of the situation?” Miguel Abbott asked again.

Such an opportunity was rare!

The major families had kept a peaceful coexistence for decades and had never before torn each other’s faces like this!

Now that Whitley Leopold himself had come out of retirement, it was clear that he intended to re-establish the Leopold Family’s reputation!

“Between the Potter Family and the Leopold Family, which has the greater chance of winning?” Julius Reed asked.

“The Leopold Family!”

Miguel Abbott explained thoughtfully, “On the surface, our major forces are about evenly matched. But we all know that we are just the latecomers and do not have the deep roots that the Leopold Family has! It’s said a strong dragon cannot repress a local snake, let alone a local dragon like the Leopold Family!”

“Once the two families break, all forces must make a choice! Choosing neutrality is the most unwise action. It pleases neither side, and the end result is worse than anyone else’s. Moreover, the Leopold Family has connections all over Five-river Province. As soon as war breaks out, they will immediately corner the Potter Family into a hopeless situation!”

Miguel Abbott understood the landscape of Five-river Province all too well.

That’s also why he wanted to dominate this place but always dared not take action.

No one could break the balance!

“Since the Potter Family is bound to lose, does Stanislaus Potter not know it?

Call Stanislaus Potter now!”

Julius Reed gestured, and Miguel Abbott, without even a moment’s hesitation, immediately took out his phone and called Stanislaus Potter. “Mr. Abbott, calling at this time, what do you mean?”

Soon, a very subdued voice came from the other end of the phone.

They were like fire and water right now, and he was still calling?

“Stanislaus Potter! The Leopold Family is about to make a move on you, and the Golden Eagle Group could be destroyed in an instant. But I have an idea that can help you take down the Leopold Family, it just requires your cooperation. ”

Julius Reed said leisurely..
