Chapter 71
Chapter 71After a while, Ludwig walked out from the room inside, accompanied by the trembling Lucy behind her.
Then, she spoke through gritted teeth, “Don’t worry about it, Aunt Hayley.
I’ll let him enjoy some pain tomorrow!”
After she said that, Ludwig tightened her grip, and the booklet titled Romantic Son-In-Law and His
Beautiful Wife instantly turned to pieces.
Then, it flew out like butterflies.
When she was in the inner room just now, Ludwig flipped through the booklet while listening to Hayley
and Rebbeca’s conversation.
Ludwig did not know why, but as Lucy put back the money pouch where Rebbeca kept it, Ludwig
unexplainably kept the booklet.
Maybe it was the book’s name, or perhaps it was for other reasons.
So, Ludwig took it to heart.
Later, when she flipped the book, she instantly knew what the content was, which immediately made
her cheeks flushed hot uncontrollably.
Hence, Ludwig was angry at Jamie, who was the fake Fierce Drago, for making her feel that way.
“He reads such an intolerably vulgar book.
Moreover, the story was about a son-in-law who married into a family, which made the family’s eldest
daughter fall for him even though she hated him at first! Besides, she seemed to devote herself to him
too! How can there be such a thing in real life! I’ll never let you go easily tomorrow?!”Ludwig gnashed her teeth in anger.
Seeing that, Lucy took two steps to the side as she was frightened.
novelbinThen, she secretly lamented, “Lady Ludwig is so terrifying!”
Suddenly, Lucy’s heart was full of sympathy and pity for Jamie, who was going to come again
tomorrow.

Rebbeca was already a distance away from the St.
Jade Chamber.
In the night, St.
Jade Chamber’s signboard was covered by the dark veil, and from afar, the writing on it could not be
seen clearly.
Not knowing why Rebbeca felt a chill out of the blue, and he could not help but sneeze a few times.
“Who’s cursing me?” Rebbeca complained.
However, he suddenly saw a few shadows in the alley not far behind him from the corner of his eyes.
“Hmm?” Rebbeca squinted.
Then, he pondered for a moment and lowered his head as he kept walking forward.
Just as he started walking, four silhouettes appeared from the alley just now.
The few men looked at each other and started whispering.“Are you sure it’s him?”
“That’s him!”
“I was watching by the side when Jonah was killed.”
“Alright.
Everyone, be careful.
This guy’s realm is higher than Jonah’s.”
Later, the four silhouettes borrowed the darkness and the surrounding buildings to sneak behind
Rebbeca and follow him.
Rebbeca appeared as if he did not know about it, and he continued to walk forward.
Unknowingly, the four people followed him for about an hour in the old town.
At that time, the four men saw Rebbeca stopped under a big tree, looked around, and started digging
around the roots.
After a while, Rebbeca stood straight and showed a happy expression.
He was even holding a small pouch.
When Rebbeca poured out the contents of the bag, the four men were stunned, and they felt their
breathing stopped.
That was a bag of fedulings, and there were more than hundreds of them! In that old town, even one
feduling coin could let someone risk their life.Thus, hundreds of fedulings could make someone do something unimaginable.
In an instant, the four men’s eyes turned bloodshot, and their gaze was filled with greed and
ruthlessness.
As for Jamie, he still acted as if no one followed him.
He glanced around his surroundings and shoved the money pouch into his chest.
Then, he quickly ran into a dark alley not far away.
“Chase after him!”
“Don’t let that cash cow run away!”
The four men quickly ran after Rebbeca without hesitation.
That dark alley was located in a relatively remote place in the old town ruins.
Furthermore, the old houses on both sides were long uninhabited, and they were mottled and
dilapidated.
Even the walls were covered with crawling weeds.
As it was at night, the alley appeared extremely gloomy.
Although the four men were also warriors, they still needed to widen their eyes to take a better look at
their partners who were close by.
When they followed Rebbeca into the alley, the four men had a faint bad feeling, but their greed for the
money made their blood boil, and they forcefully suppressed their uneasiness.“Wait a minute! Something’s up!” After chasing for quite some time, the leading man suddenly growled.
The three men behind him also hurriedly stopped in their tracks, and they asked puzzledly, “What’s
up?”
The leading man answered in a strange tone, “We’re at the end of the alley.”
“Hah?”
“How’s that possible!”
“There’s no fork in the road, so how did the man run away?”
The three men swiftly rushed over, and when they got closer, they noticed that it was the end of the
alley.
In an instant, they quickly looked at each other.
In a sudden, a chilly wind blew, and the four men felt a chill on their necks.
“I think we should…” The person did not even finish his sentence, and he fell to the ground head first.
The three remaining men were terrified at the scene.
“Who is it?! Who‘s out there?!”
“It’s you, isn’t it! Show yourself!”
“We’re not afraid of you!”
The remaining three men acted tough even though they were afraid, and they blindly turned to look at
their surroundings and shouted.Rebbeca stood just a meter behind them.
At that moment, following the movement of the three people‘s footsteps and line of sight, he used the
Ursa Major’s Blurred Shadows and moved quickly so that he was always in their blind spots.
No matter how hard the three men tried to look for him, they would never find Edgar.
Seeing how scared the three men were, Rebbeca snorted.
The sound echoed in the quiet, dark alley, and the three were so frightened that they almost wet their
pants.
Not knowing who roared first, one of them rushed toward the entrance of the alley.
Then, the rest also panicked and hurriedly followed.
Nevertheless, Rebbeca would never give them a chance to escape.
Using the Ursa Major’s Blurred Shadows, Rebbeca was as swift as the wind and reached them
instantly.
The several meters distance was as if shortened into a few centimeters.
Then, he extended both of his hands and grabbed the two men’s heads.
Bang!
The men’s heads were smashed into the wall.
The two men’s heads directly penetrated the old brick wall, but a t the same time, the two men also
fainted with blood on their faces.The guy who ran the fastest heard the noise behind him, but he did not dare turn around and look He
was so scared that his face was as pale as a sheet.
Suddenly, he felt a strong force coming from behind him and grabbed onto the collar of his shirt.
Then, he was twirled in the air, and just like a lightning bolt, he was violently slammed to the ground.
Bang!
The muffled noise trembled the old alley.
