Chapter 1408: Chapter 1408: All Included

Julius Reed arrived in front of the Cloud Pavilion, examining the squarely structured building.

To call it splendid and magnificent would not be an overstatement.

This building, could be compared rarely with the restrooms of the Ten Thousand Mountain Alliance.

The entire Cloud Pavilion was squarely shaped, with distinct edges and corners, its walls all snowy white.

Large floor-to-ceiling windows showcased a modern air.

Yet the white dragon columns perfectly integrated the majesty of ancient palaces.

The designer melded Eastern and Western styles together, possessing both the solemnity of ancient times and a modern commercial vibe.

The floor tiles in front of the Cloud Pavilion were all paved with white jade.

The door handles were all made of pure gold.

In front of the main door, there were also two white marble lion statues, invaluable!

Numerous diamonds adorned the building’s exterior, twinkling like stars in the moonlight.

It was like being in the clouds.

If the grand boulevard could be paved with gold, then such a landmark building naturally wouldn’t skimp on materials.

Julius Reed was curious, just how luxurious was the place where Lord Ghost Seven lived?

Thinking of the thatched cottage he lost, he couldn’t help but feel, this is life.

The world is very big, yet also very small.

Just as he was about to step into the Cloud Pavilion, a shout came from behind.

“Brother West Tower!”

Julius Reed turned around, just in time to see Merrill Caldwell rushing over.

“Brother West Tower, I didn’t expect to see you again so soon…” Merrill Caldwell, with a flushed face and hands behind her back, seemed somewhat at a loss.

She was afraid that being too enthusiastic might leave a bad impression on him.

Yet by being reserved, she feared she might lose future opportunities.

Young girls, inexperienced in love.

Her thoughts were simple.

Merrill Caldwell grew up in a secluded mansion, surrounded by submissive maids and stern parents.

She had no one to talk to, no friends.

People around her avoided her as if avoiding the plague.

Even her personal maids did not dare speak more than necessary.

In the entire Caldwell Family, only Ava Harris was willing to take her out to experience the world beyond Boulevard.

So, she considered Ava Harris a friend.

Now that Merrill Caldwell had met someone with a heroic bearing, she just wanted to make a friend.

At least, he seemed sincere and alive to her.

Ambrose Young was too insincere.

In fact, how many people at the pinnacle of society aren’t insincere?

Rather, it was Julius Reed’s uniqueness that deeply attracted her.

“How coincidental.” Julius Reed sized up the girl in front of him, coldly saying: “You’re also here at the Cloud Pavilion?”

Not good!

This woman’s eyes are off!

“Yes!”

Merrill Caldwell nodded slightly, shyly speaking: “You too…”

By the end, her voice was almost as soft as a mosquito’s.

“Turns out it’s Brother West Tower!” Ambrose Young’s fingers cracked, but he still forcibly suppressed his anger, stepping up: “What a coincidence.”

“Indeed quite coincidental.”

Julius Reed rarely responded.

“Miss Caldwell, it’s windy outside, let’s go in first.” After speaking, Ambrose Young gave Julius Reed a direct look, and strode into the Cloud Pavilion.

“Brother West Tower, let’s go in together.” Merrill Caldwell looked eagerly at Julius Reed like a little fan girl.

There was begging, there was humility.

“Okay.” Julius Reed reluctantly agreed, thinking to himself it was only bearable if it were an old lady admiring him, but why a young girl…

After speaking, he waved his hand and walked straight inside.

“Young Master Young.”

The two guards at the door, on seeing Ambrose Young, respectfully nodded and saluted: “Please!”

“This is Miss Caldwell from the Caldwell Family of Boulevard, Merrill Caldwell!” Ambrose Young stood at the door, explaining to the guards.

Actually, he didn’t need to say anything.

As one of the top families, the Young Family could bring anyone in without anyone stopping them.

Ambrose Young did this to make things difficult for the masked man!

“Sir, please stop!”

When Julius Reed approached the entrance, he was stopped by a guard.

“Please declare your identity.”

A middle-aged martial artist sized him up and outstretched a hand: “Or please show the invitation.”

“I don’t have one.”

Julius Reed shook his head.

“Brother Ambrose, please help me out.” Merrill Caldwell, who had just entered, spotted the scene and quickly returned, looking at Ambrose Young: “Please help.”

The guards, hearing this, all turned their gaze toward Ambrose Young.

If Young Master Ambrose spoke up, they would let him through directly.

“Merrill, Swimming City has its rules, as does the Cloud Pavilion. Even though I am the eldest Young of the Young Family, I must abide by the rules,” Ambrose Young said helplessly, “You are from the Caldwell Family of Boulevard; otherwise, I couldn’t bring you in either. Let me try, though.”

He spoke loud enough for the entrance guards to hear clearly.

Everyone was keen enough to understand what this meant.

“Gentlemen, he’s my friend. Could you please make an exception?” Ambrose Young walked to the entrance, pointed at Julius Reed, and lightly laughed: “Please do this favor for me.”

“Sorry, Young Master!”

Both men had already gathered Ambrose Young’s intent, and said quite firmly: “Without rules, there’s no standards! Although Young Master is of noble status, he must also comply with rules.”

“Can’t you make an exception?” Ambrose Young pretended to argue.

“No!”

The guards vehemently refused, not giving any room for negotiation.

“Merrill, you see,” Ambrose Young turned around, spreading his hands helplessly.

He indicated that he had tried his best.

“Isn’t there another way?” Merrill Caldwell asked urgently.

“Miss, those who come to the Cloud Pavilion are extremely prestigious. Forcing one’s way into such a circle might actually harm him,” Ava Harris remarked coldly from the side.

What use is skill if?

Still unable to get in?

Some barriers are simply insurmountable.

“Then I will leave too!” Merrill Caldwell stomped her foot, about to leave, but was stopped by Julius Reed.

“Miss Caldwell, there’s no need for this. If it’s meant to be, we’ll get in; if not, it’s also fate,”

Julius Reed stood in front of the two martial artists and calmly asked, “Is there really no other way besides status?”

“There is!”

The guard pointed at the two white jade lions at the entrance: “If your honor can lift it, then you may enter. The Cloud Pavilion has its rules, identity or martial strength, if you have one, you may enter.”

“What if it gets damaged?” Julius Reed asked calmly, “Rather than lifting, I’d rather smash it.”

“Brother from West Tower, I advise you,” Ambrose Young said proudly at the entrance, “That white jade lion is not ordinary; each weighs ten thousand pounds! Not to lie, Lord Ghost Seven once tried to blow it up with explosives and it remained intact. Instead of trying to break it, you might want to try lifting it.”

“Correct!”

The martial artist nodded, “Young Master spoke rightly. If you can smash it, we will allow you to enter right away! But still consider lifting it up.”

Julius Reed did not speak, but directly approached the white jade lion on the left.

He stretched out his right hand, gently pressing on the top of the white jade lion’s head.

A moment later, he walked back to the entrance.

“Brother from West Tower, it’s normal not to be able to move it,” Ambrose Young said slightly smugly from the side: “It’s rare for someone to be able to lift it. Don’t doubt yourself, with age and time, you will surely be able to enter the Cloud Pavilion!”

Mockery and sarcasm.

The words carried thorns.

“This, can I enter now?” Julius Reed ignored him, tossing over the Token of the Ten Thousand Mountain Alliance.

“This… please come in!”

Seeing the text on it, the guard trembled, quickly handed back the token, and bowed respectfully: “I am blind.”

Ten Thousand Mountain Alliance!

The overlord of the world!

Who dares to block an inspector of the Ten Thousand Mountain Alliance?

Julius Reed took back the token and strode into the Cloud Pavilion under Ambrose Young’s puzzled gaze.

“What happened…”

Just as Ambrose Young was about to inquire of the guards.

Boom!

A loud explosion.

Startled him into sitting down on the ground.

At the entrance.

The white jade lion that Julius Reed had just touched had been blasted into powder!

While everyone was in shock—

“Identity? Martial strength? If you have one, you may enter?” Julius Reed’s voice came from nowhere: “Lucky for me, I have both.”
