Legend of Dragon Son-in-law-Chapter 1395: Both Guardians of the Spirit

Some people are still alive, yet they are already dead.

Like Julius Reed, who was once son-in-law to The North Sea.

Some people are dead, yet they still live on.

Like Jex Kensington, who has already turned cold.

Julius Reed sat within the Righteous Mansion, temporarily not informing anyone from the Ten Thousand Mountain Alliance of Jex Kensington’s death.

But the blame for the West Sea incident was inescapable.

The surveillance Token was pocketed by Julius Reed.

It would come in handy in Swimming City.

However, being one’s own servant was also a first for him.

From Gabriel Abernathy’s words, it seemed like the individual who snatched the Divine Dragon Tripod was highly skilled.

It was said that even Everton Davenport couldn’t stop him when he made a move himself.

Devlin can handle conspiracy and tricks alright, but when it comes to real skill, he is still quite lacking.

Could it have been Andrew who made the move?

Julius Reed felt that when he had the time, he should indeed have a talk with the Unbeatable.

The Unbeatable Divine Hall has been lurking in Swimming City for years without any leaks, obviously someone has been helping them.

Leaving Righteous Mansion and heading west, is the Golden Avenue.

"Princess, this Swimming City really is heaven!"

Solaris Grove, riding a tall horse, traversed the Golden Avenue and couldn’t help but exclaim: "Beneath the hooves, is gold. The surrounding walls, are also all made of pure silver!"

He wanted to dissipate the awkwardness and shift Princess Baylor Davenport’s attention.

The princess of The North Sea, accustomed to a life of privelege being forced to apologize, must be feeling upset.

A fawning follower must consider everything thoroughly.

But Baylor Davenport didn’t speak, her face expressionless as she looked ahead.

The sky was not yet dark, and the Ghost Market had not yet begun.

Although there were people walking on the Golden Avenue, it was nowhere near as lively as at night.

By nightfall, it would be jam-packed with people.

If everyone’s sleeves were connected together, they could cover the sky above Swimming City.

"Princess, shall I have someone inquire?" Solaris Grove regretted his words as soon as he said them.

If it wasn’t for him actively seeking out a blind man to ask for directions, Baylor Davenport wouldn’t have to suffer such humiliation.

"Do you still think you haven’t been wronged enough?"

Baylor Davenport had a stern face as she coldly said: "Your duty is to protect me. You needn’t worry about other matters."

"Yes."

Solaris Grove bowed his head, not daring to breathe loudly.

The Golden Avenue was long, and after walking for over ten minutes, Baylor Davenport suddenly seemed to recall something.

She surveyed her surroundings and glanced at the ground, then approached a pedestrian on the street and asked: "Excuse me, is this the Golden Avenue?"

Before coming to Swimming City, Baylor Davenport had heard of the Golden Avenue.

It was a symbol of luxury in Swimming City, and one of the places that foreigners must visit.

Having learned her lesson just now, she was much more polite when asking for directions.

"Yes! This is the Golden Avenue! Keep on going, and you’ll reach the Swimming City Ghost Market." After responding, the person quickly left.

"Golden Avenue..." Baylor Davenport muttered to herself, then took out her phone and dialed a number.

"I’m Princess Baylor Davenport from The North Sea. Are you located on the Golden Avenue?"

After hearing the reply, she hung up the call and pointed ahead: "Follow this road to find the Heaven and Earth Alliance. First, let’s go there to meet some acquaintances."

"You few, go scout ahead!" Solaris Grove immediately began giving orders to the troops of The North Sea’s envoy.

Before long, a soldier reported back that the Heaven and Earth Alliance was just a kilometer away.

"Let’s go!"

Baylor Davenport, not bothering about the others, cracked her whip on the horse’s rear and galloped down the Golden Avenue.

When they arrived at the entrance of the Heaven and Earth Alliance, several guards were already there to greet them.

"Princess of The North Sea?"

The lead guard looked her over and inquired aloud.

"Indeed, it is I."

Baylor Davenport dismounted and was led by the guard into the Heaven and Earth Alliance.

The so-called Heaven and Earth Alliance, like the Righteous Mansion, was a private estate.

Only its location was much more prestigious than that of the Righteous Mansion.

Living here is a symbol of status.

Upon entering the courtyard, one could see it filled with mourning streamers, indicating someone had recently died.

And Baylor Davenport, too, wore a white headband and plain garments, apparently here to mourn.

"Princess Baylor Davenport!" ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com

In the inner courtyard, a man dressed in hemp and wearing mourning attire quickly walked out to greet her.

"Princess of The North Sea, I have seen Andrew!"

Baylor Davenport bowed slightly, her demeanor respectful.

"Princess, are you aware that the Alliance Hierarch has just passed and have come here specifically..." Andrew furrowed his brows slightly.

The sudden death of Alliance Hierarch Pendleton was a secret!

It has yet to be disclosed publicly.

How did Baylor Davenport come to know the news in advance?

Dressed in plain clothes, wearing a white headband, something seemed amiss!

"The Alliance Hierarch... when did it happen?" Baylor Davenport was equally surprised.

Her trip to Swimming City had the goal of testing Andrew, while also trying to glean information on Pendleton.

Everton Davenport had once sent someone to deliver a message to Andrew, promising a title of nobility and support to help him replace the current Alliance Hierarch.

Although Andrew had agreed, there was no action from his side.

This made Everton Davenport somewhat uneasy.

Now that Baylor Davenport was visiting, to hear such news unexpectedly?

Seeing Andrew in mourning attire, she knew in her heart that it was true.

The courtyard full of mourning streamers likely meant the Alliance Hierarch was dead.

However, with outsiders present, it was not appropriate to inquire further, so she explained: "I came in haste and had not heard of the Alliance Hierarch’s demise. I intended to visit the Heaven and Earth Alliance to meet with the Hierarch. Who knew..."

At this point, she sighed softly, her tone somewhat sorrowful: "I am dressed in plain clothing because, unfortunately, my husband has died."

"The North Sea’s son-in-law?" Andrew spoke with some surprise: "It is widely known that the son-in-law has made great contributions through his battles in the south and north for The North Sea! How could..."

"Perhaps... it’s just my unfortunate fate." Baylor Davenport wanted to smile but restrained herself.

Damn it all!

Dare to slap one’s own bottom?

The night of the funeral, Baylor Davenport quietly had her husband’s ashes dug up, mixed with gunpowder, and set off fireworks all night long.

That night.

The air in The North Sea’s imperial court was imbued with the scent of ashes.

"Condolences." Andrew spoke to comfort her.

"And to you as well," Baylor Davenport comforted back.

Two people who’ve lost loved ones were both very happy.

Yet they had to console each other to "endure the loss."

"Princess, why have you come to Swimming City so suddenly?"

As Andrew spoke, he glanced behind her.

Solaris Grove was leading the people of The North Sea’s mission further in.

Seeing this, Andrew placed his hand behind his back and stealthily made a hand gesture.

Pendleton’s men immediately disappeared, preparing for battle.

The theft of the Divine Dragon Tripod from The North Sea was personally involved by Pendleton.

Bead Pulse was just an assistance.

In the end, the Divine Dragon Tripod fell into the hands of Devlin and then into the hands of Isabella Warm.

That led to the scene within the Heaven and Earth Alliance where Isabella Warm assassinated the Alliance Hierarch Pendleton.

As for why the Divine Dragon Tripod went astray despite Andrew’s strengths?

Of course, it was done intentionally by Andrew.

He had guessed early on that Isabella Warm intended to use the Tripod to assassinate the Hierarch.

Therefore, he pretended to lose it, allowing Devlin to find it.

Those atop the pinnacle of power, if they do not know how to use others, are destined only to be used by others.

Now, with Bead Pulse and Pendleton having fallen out, Andrew’s gut instinct told him it was Isabella Warm who had betrayed him.

And the people from The North Sea were here to demand the Divine Dragon Tripod.

"The North Sea comes to Swimming City with two objectives," Baylor Davenport did not hide the truth, speaking directly: "My father heard that the Divine Dragon Tripod appeared in Swimming City and sent me to gather information. On the other hand, it’s to pull you in, City Lord, to join our faction."

"Report!"

As the two were conversing, a Pendleton guard hastily ran over and knelt before Andrew: "Lord Andrew! Ghost Market, Leopold Shopkeeper requests an audience!"
