Chapter 1763: Foot Washing Water
"Shameless! Slut!"
Han Caldwell cursed in his heart!
Who would have thought that the usually innocent and lovely Hayden Caldwell could be so wanton!
Saying such brazen words to a strange man!
Emperor Charlotte Grey smirked slyly, giving Han Caldwell a thumbs-down gesture.
That was contempt!
The world only knew the two Caldwell sisters as heavenly beauties, pure and lovely.
But little did they know, when they got wild, they were exceptional.
"West Tower, where is your family from?" Hayden Caldwell suddenly asked.
She'd been curious for a long time but felt shy to ask.
Now that they were alone, without any outside interruptions, Hayden Caldwell finally mustered the courage to ask softly.
But after asking, she lowered her head, her face flushed with embarrassment.
"I…" Julius Reed said just one word and then fell silent.
Outside the wall!
Han Caldwell and Emperor Charlotte Grey pricked up their ears!
Listening intently!
Was the identity of West Tower about to be revealed?
"I'm from the North Sea," Julius Reed said calmly.
"The North Sea?" Hayden Caldwell was slightly surprised.
She seemed to have heard of the North Sea yet not really.
From a young age, Hayden Caldwell had been cared for by her sister, Olindo Caldwell, like a child, rarely leaving the Caldwell Family.
She could only learn about the outside world through books and the words of those who traveled outside from the Caldwell Family.
"Yes, the North Sea." Julius Reed nodded, his hands constantly adjusting to achieve the best effect for relieving pressure on the feet.
"The North Sea, it's a good place. It used to be a vassal state of the Ten Thousand Mountain Alliance, but was destroyed due to some reasons."
"My brother, Solaris Grove, was a General in the North Sea. He loved the North Sea Princess Baylor Davenport, but the princess did not love him."
"Even so, my brother still waited, trying to win over the princess. But human nature is always underestimated; someone who is overly devoted doesn't end well."
"On the night of the princess and the North Sea Consort's wedding, my brother was castrated through the princess's scheme. Yet my brother bore no resentment, even thinking that this was the princess's best way to keep him by her side."
"But not long after, in Swimming City, my brother died protecting the princess."
Julius Reed's tone carried a hint of sadness as he spoke to this point.
Solaris Grove may not have been great at being a human, but as a devoted follower, he truly was a loyal dog.
"That North Sea princess is truly disgusting! Terrible woman!"
Hayden Caldwell, immersed in the comfort of a foot bath with tea, spoke entirely from her heart.
"That North Sea princess is none other than Baylor Davenport, who traveled with me. My original name was Solaris Zhao. I entered Ocean Academy at five and became the chief disciple of the dean by the age of ten. After hearing of my brother's murder, I originally wanted revenge, but my brother's last words were for me to take good care of Baylor Davenport."
Julius Reed seemed engulfed by memories, speaking painfully: "So I left Ocean Academy, but the academy deliberately staged a conflict between me and the dean at a post station to conceal its power, making others believe that although I was strong, I was merely a fortunate errand by the Ocean Academy."
"In fact, the academy had dozens of young talents with my level of strength."
After saying this, Han Caldwell, outside the wall, turned pale.
Emperor Charlotte Grey didn't fare much better either.
Dozens of them?
How could this be?
Even one of them caused them such agony; if dozens emerged at once, wouldn't they tear a whole in the sky?
But Demetrius Caldwell, after returning from Ocean Academy, hadn't mentioned any of this.
Han Caldwell listened carefully, unwilling to miss any information.
"Do you think I dared to publicly kill the Sword Sect's Sect Master just because of nothing?" Julius Reed snorted lightly: "The mere Sword Sect is nothing! The abilities of Ocean Academy are beyond what these shabby sects can compare with? To tell you the truth, the dean's plan is to replace the Holy Lord."
Hayden Caldwell was completely stunned.
She never expected that a casual question could lead to so much revelation.
Even the academy's secrets were exposed.
"Thank you, West Tower."
Hayden Caldwell pouted slightly, feeling a little moved.
The fact that he shared such important matters showed the level of trust West Tower had in her!
Thinking of this, Hayden Caldwell couldn't help but smile.
"If it weren't for my brother's last wishes, I would've killed that Baylor Davenport ages ago! But my family, indeed, owed a great debt to the North Sea royal family. So even though I am powerful, I've always been tolerant towards Baylor Davenport."
Julius Reed said, suddenly noticing the tea water was running out.
He put away the teapot and leisurely raised the teapot responsible for catching footwash water from the ground, placing it on the table.
The two put on their shoes and leaned back in their chairs, facing each other.
"How's my technique?" Julius Reed asked lightly, leaning back in his chair.
Footbathing with tea was a skilled art.
This process far exceeded the complexity of tea ceremonies!
After all, a bored person, having used half a mountain of tea leaves and spending decades of time, devised such a technique.
When it comes to indulgence, Julius Reed was serious.
"West Tower brother, you're amazing." Hayden Caldwell instantly became his little fan girl.
But outside the wall.
Han Caldwell almost spat out blood.
Emperor Charlotte Grey was trying hard to suppress laughter, barely managing not to make a sound.
Good lord!
This is the 'pure and lovely' Hayden Caldwell as known by the Caldwell Family?
Kind of interesting.
"What I told you today, don't tell anyone. My identity from the North Sea and my association with Ocean Academy, it must not be leaked! Even to your grandfather, it cannot be revealed." Julius Reed instructed.
Of course, these words were all lies.
They were meant for those outside to hear.
But Hayden Caldwell was moved to tears, quickly nodding: "Don't worry, West Tower brother, I won't utter a single word!"
"Go back now, there's probably nothing going on with your sister." Julius Reed stood up, speaking mildly: "It's getting dark; I won't send you off, to avoid any rumors."
"Ugh!"
Outside the wall, Han Caldwell spat in disgust in his heart!
Playing the hypocrite!
Every second outside the wall was torment for him!
Thankfully, it's finally over.
West Tower is indeed West Tower.
A descendant of a General from the North Sea, a disciple of Ocean Academy.
The so-called meeting by chance was all an illusion!
Han Caldwell felt a wave of fear in his heart, realizing he had indeed underestimated the capabilities of Ocean Academy.
"When you have time, bring your sister along to let her experience it." Julius Reed said as he walked out of the tea pavilion with Hayden Caldwell.
And Han Caldwell and Emperor Charlotte Grey immediately hid, avoiding being discovered.
After Julius Reed and Hayden Caldwell had left, Han Caldwell stormed into the tea house.
But found the surveillance broken.
He didn't know when it had shattered.
Emperor Charlotte Grey also followed him inside, with Devlin coming in third.
The three sat down on the chairs previously occupied by Julius Reed and Hayden Caldwell, facing each other.
"How was it?"
Devlin asked.
Without surveillance, he knew nothing of what happened inside.
"It was quite a show, you missed out." Emperor Charlotte Grey sneered, picking up the teapot to pour three cups.
Indeed, it felt a bit dry outside.
"He is not the Holy Lord, he is indeed West Tower." Han Caldwell said, lifting the teacup to drink it all in one go.
But it seemed…
The taste of the tea water was somewhat strange.
PS: Happy New Year.
