<h3 ss="wp-block-heading">The Novel <strong>The Amazing Son-in-Law</strong> & <strong>Hero of Hearts</strong> by <strong>Lord Leaf</strong> – Free Online Read <strong>Chapter 526</strong>


    Charlie had a hunch that he was right.


    Upon arriving at the top floor with Duan Liye, the middle-aged man led them into his office.


    Apanying them was a young man from the Dark Realm, along with several masters from the Bright Realm.


    As soon as the door closed, the young man approached Duan Liye, suddenly kneeling on the floor. He bowed deeply and, with tears in his voice, pleaded, “My lord special envoy, please show me your mercy and save me. There are more than 3,700 of us!”


    The others quickly followed suit, kneeling and sobbing in unison, “Master Special Envoy, please be merciful!”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    Duan Liye was taken aback.


    Charlie had suggested that he meet these individuals in the usual manner.


    However, their unexpected kneeling and pleas for mercy left him momentarily confused.


    Currently, Duan Liye operated almost like a machine, ready to execute orders that were programmed into him. But when faced with something outside his usual parameters, he was thrown into a state of uncertainty.


    Noticing Duan Liye’s hesitation, Charlie inquired, “Are you concerned that the British Lord will punish you as he did to others twenty years ago?”


    Panic spread among them!


    They were shocked that the normally quiet attendant of the special envoy was speaking up.


    Even more startling was how their deepest fears were being voiced aloud!


    Exchanging nces, the young man suddenly realized something. He crawled towards Charlie, choked with emotion, and said, “Please forgive my ignorance in not recognizing your identity sooner, my lord special envoy!”


    Seeing this, the others quickly followed suit, crawling before Charlie and pleading, “Please forgive us, my lord special envoy!”


    Charlie was initially taken aback but soon regained hisposure, reflecting, “It seems they truly believe I am the special envoy.”


    The internal dynamics of the Poqing Society are highly secretive, often misleading outsiders. Just as Duan Liye mentioned, inpanies controlled by the Poqing Society, the public face is usually not the real leader. Instead, the true authority might be a low-profile assistant or ountant.


    For instance, in this copper mine, the middle-aged man appeared to be in charge, while the young man seemed to be his secretary. Yet, once in the office, the young man became the de facto leader,manding respect from the others.


    Thus, the young man may have mistakenly thought that as the assistant to the special envoy, he was actually the envoy himself.


    Seeing the group kneeling before him in desperation, Charlie smiled slightly and asked, “If the British Lord truly decided to eliminate all of you here, would you dare to resist?”


    The atmosphere turned tense, and they trembled in fear.


    The young man blurted out, panic-stricken, “My lord special envoy, this is entirely my fault for not meeting the British Lord’s expectations. Even if he ordered my death, I would have noints!”


    The others echoed, “We would dly die for the Lord!”


    Charlie scoffed, his tone dripping with disdain, “You all would rather kneel like ves, showing loyalty instead of disying any sense of resistance. Don’t you possess any spirit?”<fn27f9> Get full chapters from f?i?n?d?n?o?v?e?l?</fn27f9>


    At his words, their fear intensified!


    They believed that Charlie was testing their loyalty, and they didn’t dare show any disobedience. They continued to bow in terror.


    The young man, still overwhelmed, replied, “Master Special Envoy, you are wise. My subordinates wouldn’t even dare to think of rebellion…”


    Observing the young man’s terrified demeanor, Charlie could see that he was genuinely scared and had no intention of opposing him.


    However, considering their identities, Charlie wasn’t surprised.


    As Duan Liye exined, most members of the Qing Dynasty Society had joined voluntarily, with the exception of deceased warriors and their families.


    Particrly for martial artists eager to enhance their skills, joining the Poqing Society was a means to achieve rapid advancement, leading to no deep-seated enmity.


    The young man before him had a respectable cultivation level and was a Jiedu envoy responsible for managing the entire base of dead soldiers, indicating his significant status.


    It was possible he had even trained in the Huben camp.


    Such individuals might even feel gratitude towards the Poqing Society rather than resentment.


    Consequently, they were unlikely to harbor any desire to confront the organization.


    Reflecting on this, Charlie lost interest in devising strategies against them. He looked at them calmly and said, “The British Lord is indeed angry about Bergen’s failure, but he understands that you are not to me. Therefore, you need not worry excessively.”


    Hearing this, a collective sigh of relief swept through the group.


    The young man expressed his gratitude, “Thank you for your generosity, Lord Ying! Your kindness is greatly appreciated! We will redeem ourselves and dedicate our lives to the organization!”<h3 ss="has-text-align-center wp-block-heading" id="chapter-list"><strong>Next Chapter</strong>
