Chapter 399: The Little Fool Comes Running
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The huge manor was as quiet and peaceful as ever.
Jace Jackel and Savannah Jackel were settled down in the villa.
Cole Colbie stood in the living room and softly said, “Brother, Seventh Brother and the others have already made hundreds of calls in the northern region.”
“Don’t accept the calls!”
Braydon Neal stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back.
Braydon had completely abandoned the matter of the north.
He had spread the news of his death not only to see the reactions of the various parties.
He also wanted to see if the eight countries outside the borders would dare to invade again.
If Cameron Linar dared to use force!
Braydon would definitely destroy the eight foreign countries before he recovered the 36 islands of Ludwig.
Otherwise, when Braydon recovered the Ludwig Islands and started a war with Banko and the other countries…
If the eight countries outside the borders took the opportunity to cause trouble. the northern territorv would be attacked from both sides.
Just like what Qadry Knight said, Braydon was setting up a trap.
This was a chess game.
Braydon was the player behind the scenes.
With whom?
The hundred generals of the Military Department were the chess pieces, and the islands of Ludwig were the chessboard.
The goal of this game was not the powerful families and aristocratic families.
It was Banko and the other two countries!
Cole added, “Duke Lowe of the capital has made seventy-six calls.”
“Cut off all external connections.”
At this moment, Braydon did not need to do anything.
He only needed to wait quietly in the Neal family manor!
Once the news of his death spread out…
It was a storm!
A storm that swept across the world.
The Northern King’s influence was not limited to the northern territory.
Hansworth’s seven elites.
Other than the Northern King, there were also the western army, the Southern Hansworth elite troops, the Groot army, and so on.
Without exception, they all obeyed the Northern King’s orders!
Now, news of the Northern King’s death had spread.
None of the six great armies believed it, and they could not contact Cole.
They each sent their elites to Mount Sheburg to investigate this matter.
Luther Carden and Yuri Qualls quietly came to the living room.
“Brother, by announcing your fake death to the public, are you planning to launch a surprise attack on the Ludwig Islands on the third of next month?”
Luther, this cunning old man, was the one who understood Braydon’s thoughts the most among the people in the northern territory.
It was not difficult to find out whether the news of Braydon’s death was true or not.
As long as they investigated Mount Sheburg, there were still the calligraphy left behind by Braydon in the Great Buddha Hall of the Shaolin Temple.
They could easily deduce that Braydon was not dead.
However, Braydon naturally had his reasons for doing so.
Yuri said softly, “The outside world will not believe that Big Brother died just like that.”
“However, after the truth is revealed, if there is news that big brother is seriously injured, that his cultivation is crippled and he doesn’t have much time left, more than ninety percent of people will believe it.”
Yuri smiled calmly.
At this point, Braydon’s goal was clear.
The news that Cole had sent out earlier, that the Northern King had fallen, could not withstand a detailed investigation. Whether Braydon was alive or dead, it would soon be clear.
However, Braydon’s hidden illness had acted up, and his injuries were extremely serious!
He merely exaggerated it by saying that Braydon’s cultivation had been crippled and that he did not have much time left.
The outside world had no choice but to believe it.
Under such circumstances, those who were enemies with Braydon would wake up laughing in their dreams.
Never in their wildest dreams would the three countries outside the borders have thought that on the third of next month, Braydon would reclaim the Ludwig Islands and start a war between countries.
At that time, the northern army would move out and sweep across the Ludwig Islands, striking first.
This was Braydon’s goal!
Luther sat in the wheelchair and said softly, “Faking his death is a little careless though. When Duke Lowe finds out the inside story, he’ll probably explode in anger.”
“It’s good to anger him. It saves us the trouble!” Yuri and the others did not feel guilty at all.
However, it did not seem right to say that!
Was it Dominic Lowe who was causing trouble for them or was it the few of them who were causing trouble for him?
This was probably a question that could never be answered.
The ten ruthless men of the northern army were all little foxes.
None of them were easy to deal with. Then, outside the manor.
“Brother, where are you?”
Great Demon King Luke Yates had arrived!
“Why are you here, little fool?” Yuri’s face darkened.
Luther was expressionless. He turned the wheels of his wheelchair and was about to go back to his room to get some rest.
He did not want to see the little fool!
In fact, throughout the entire northern army, the only person that would make Luther hide was this little fool.
Luke had yet to arrive, but the ghostly wails and howls sounded as if he was here for a funeral!
Yuri came to the door in a flash and looked at Luke, who was crying so hard that he jumped down from the helicopter. His nose was running. “What are you doing here?” White-clothed Qualls’s face darkened.
“I’m here for the funeral!”
Luke ran over with snot and tears in his eyes, panting as he spoke righteously.
Yuri was speechless.
After a moment of speechlessness.
Yuri carried him into the living room.
There were too many people outside, and some things could not be said.
However, the little fool had just entered the living room when he saw Braydon sitting there calmly.
He cried loudly and hugged Braydon’s leg. He sat on the ground and wailed, “Brother, you’re not dead!”
“That dog Cole lied to me.
“He told the public that you died in battle. ”
Luke wiped his tears and, in front of Cole, kept scolding him for being a good-for-nothing.
They had gone too far this time!
It really scared the little fool!
In Luke’s heart, anyone could die in battle except his brother, Braydon.
Cole’s face darkened, but he did not argue with the little fool.
Braydon pinched the back of his head and smiled faintly. “Little fool, you can’t do anything right, but when it comes to attending a funeral, you’re the first.”
“You can’t blame me for that. I don’t even fake my own death. If you guys did it, then so be it. But why didn’t you inform me in advance?” The little fool straightened his neck and talked back to Braydon.
He was being reasonable!
“If he can’t beat you, he will reason with you. If he can beat you, he is the reason!”
Luther rolled her eyes.
The few of them had grown up together since they were young, so they were all familiar with each other.
Luke scoffed and planned to stay at the Neal family for a few days before going back.
Cole solemnly said, “The little fool is also among the hundred generals of the army. On the third of next month, the meeting of the hundred generals will begin. Don’t let him return for the next few days.”
“Why didn’t anyone inform me about the meeting of the hundred generals on the third of next month?” Luke’s face darkened.
He did not know!
However, the little fool was clueless.
Who would be willing to provoke him for no reason!
Braydon nodded lightly. Luke was so scared that he almost peed his pants this time around. Braydon wanted to keep him by his side and ask him what good things he had done in Eastern Hansworth all these years.
Just as the brothers were chatting, a distinguished guest arrived at the Neal family manor.
It was not the Marquis of the West, Bryan Goldman, and the others.
This distinguished guest was dressed in golden clothes that fit his body. His aura was noble beyond words, and his facial features were handsome. His Imife-cut face had a faint smile on it.
He entered the manor, looked around, and chuckled. “Look at all the smiles.
Brother, you really know how to enjoy yourself!”
His indifferent words resounded throughout the Neal family manor.
This young man had never appeared before.
Who was he?
