Chapter 1473: Chapter 1473: Mysterious Woman

Nine Heavens Thorn!

The ultimate treasure of the Micah Will.

The stubborn tradition holds that the Micah Will, as one of the Seven Veins, controls various formations with exquisite skill.

The image of the Nine Heavens Thorn as gears perfectly fits the mechanism design.

Julius Reed believes this is the sealing artifact of the Micah Will!

Now in his hand are the Eagle Vein “Flying Sky,” the Sealing Pulse “Hell Sword,” and the Micah Will “Nine Heavens Thorn!”

Four more remain.

The Night, the Royal Vein, the Bead Pulse, and the one lost.

The weapon of the lost pulse, he has seen before.

But the remaining three weapons, Julius Reed does not even know their appearance.

Ding!

Suddenly, his phone rang.

Looking at the unfamiliar number, Julius Reed picked up immediately.

Whoever knows this number surely isn’t ordinary.

If they’re looking for me, it must be important.

“Is Micah dead?”

A female voice came from the phone.

“Dead.”

Julius Reed was first taken aback, then replied very calmly: “Just died.”

He wouldn’t ask something foolish like ‘Who are you?’

If the other party wants to say, they will introduce themselves.

If they don’t want to say, asking would only invite ridicule.

“Fool!”

The woman cursed angrily.

Julius Reed was stunned.

Someone dared to curse him?

So bold, huh?

The dignified Holy Lord of the Ten Thousand Mountain Alliance, being cursed like this for the first time!

Of course, those three years of amnesia don’t count.

It was indeed quite miserable being scolded.

“Fool!”

When he came back to his senses, her voice rang out again from the phone.

“This is too much.” Julius Reed’s tone carried a chill.

“Micah Will’s ‘Nine Heavens Thorn’ is split into yin and yang! What you got is the yin! Only when yin and yang combine can their full power be unleashed! Without the yang, the piece of junk in your hand can at most peel an apple!”

The more the woman spoke, the angrier she became.

Julius Reed was stunned.

In utter astonishment.

According to the sheepskin parchment provided by Gabriel Young, there are indeed seven hollows plus a notch of the Divine Dragon Tripod.

One of the positions indeed looks very much like gears.

Julius Reed didn’t suspect it at all.

Who would have thought, he was tricked by Micah.

However!

How could he be sure what the woman said was true?

“You suspect me?” The woman’s tone was filled with disdain and mockery.

Julius Reed didn’t reply.

Because he found this woman quite terrifying.

In eternal life, this is the first woman who could make him speechless.

“You don’t need to doubt. The ‘Nine Heavens Thorn’ is split into yin and yang. What you’re holding belongs to yin. There should be a ‘moon’ character on one side of the gear.”

Listening to her, Julius Reed looked carefully.

Sure enough, there was a less noticeable moon.

“The yang has a ‘sun’ character on it. Only the unification of yin and yang can bring out the power of the ‘Nine Heavens Thorn.'”

After saying this, the woman couldn’t help but curse: “Fool!”

Julius Reed furrowed his brows slightly, indeed he was careless.

Micah is an old fox, how could he easily hand over the ‘Nine Heavens Thorn’?

Dealing with eagles for years, didn’t expect to be messed by an eagle himself.

But who was the woman on the phone?

She still hadn’t revealed her identity.

Should I ask?

A warning about not getting entangled!

Julius Reed couldn’t go against himself, so he asked: “Why do you know so much? How did you know Micah just died?”

“I can’t be bothered with you!”

The woman’s voice over the phone was somewhat weary.

“You…who are you?” Julius Reed sighed, entangled or not, he had to know.

This matter was like a thorn in his back he couldn’t resolve!

The other side knew everything about him, yet he didn’t know who she was.

“You have changed.” After a brief silence, the woman suddenly laughed: “I remember you never asked who the other party was. Because you used to say, no matter who the other person is, they aren’t more significant than you, so you don’t need to know.”

Julius Reed’s heart skipped a beat!

This woman knows a bit too much.

“Very well, very well.” He laughed awkwardly, feeling completely on the defensive.

“From now on, remember to be cautious in what you do. Besides, Pendleton is far more complicated than you think. Its millennium heritage suggests a hidden trump card. When the Royal Vein joined the Seven Veins, it was due to fear of that very card. But Pendleton won’t reveal it unless absolutely necessary. When it does, it will lead to bloodstorms.”

The woman’s voice turned gentle.

“The Azure Emperor’s ancient tomb is fraught with dangers. Be careful. Although you’re undying, wasn’t four years ago, losing your memory enough of a lesson?”

The voice stopped abruptly there.

Julius Reed observed, she had hung up.

He tried calling back, only to be met with an inactive number.

An expert indeed.

Even impossible to trace.

Who could she be?

“What’s wrong?” Noticing his uneasy look, Gabriel Young asked with concern: “Who was on the call?”

“A mysterious person, an apparently well-acquainted mysterious woman. She knew quite a bit about me but refused to reveal her identity.”

Julius Reed glanced around at the Young Family martial artists, his expression darkened: “Capture everyone involved in tonight’s operation!”

He couldn’t believe that woman didn’t have an informant!

Even if Micah had some life-detecting tiny device, how did she know about him acquiring the ‘Nine Heavens Thorn’?

This was top secret!

The only explanation is that before the ‘Nine Heavens Thorn’ came into his possession, she’d already received the information!

An insider!

There’s an insider within the Young Family!

“Start moving!” Just as Gabriel Young gave the order, a Great Grandmaster from the Young Family rushed up.

“Miss, the Grandmaster Nash Will, who accompanied us to obtain the ‘Nine Heavens Thorn,’ suddenly disappeared! Didn’t even clean up his stuff, seems hurried. Should we pursue?”

Gabriel Young’s face fell, ordered: “Chase! He won’t get out of Swimming City!”

“Yes!” The Great Grandmaster turned to leave, but heard Julius Reed speak: “Forget it. If he fled, it means he was prepared long before. Pursuing him won’t work.”

“But, thoroughly investigate the Young Family! Prevent the emergence of another insider!” After Julius Reed spoke, he looked at Gabriel Young: “When did this Nash Will arrive?”

“Ten years. Nash Will has been in my residence for a full ten years! I can’t believe the insider is him!” Gabriel Young carried a sense of guilt and pain, along with deep self-reproach.

“It’s alright.” Julius Reed comforted: “It seems they don’t mean harm, perhaps even a friend. Without her warning, I might have thought I had obtained the ‘Nine Heavens Thorn,’ which would have made things more difficult.”

“Mm.” Although Gabriel Young responded affirmatively, she had already decided to thoroughly investigate the Young Family!

Likewise, Julius Reed had concerns.

Ten years!

Could someone really have been lurking for ten years?

If so, that’s overly terrifying!

The other party predicted this a decade ago?

If Gabriel Young wasn’t intentionally acquainted with him, it’s even more frightening!

At this moment.

On the Eastern Continent, within a high-rise somewhere.

Unlike the pitch-black night of Swimming City.

Outside the skyscraper, the sky was clear and sunny.

A mature woman with long, wavy hair walked to the wardrobe and took out a cloak.

She wore it over her shoulders.

A vivid red phoenix was embroidered on the cloak.

“Master, where are you heading?” a black-clad samurai at the door inquired.

“Going to clean up someone’s mess.”

The woman shook her head, sighed, and stepped out of the room.

Yet, at the corner of her mouth.

There was a smile.
