Chapter 186 He Should Be Killed

Chapter 186 He Should Be Killed

"Yes, Commander!" Night Orchid responded and then looked coldly at Oscar.

"Before on that road, he intended to attack SHADOW, This is the first one!" ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

"Just now, for no reason, you hurt SHADOW guards, this is the second time!"

"Disregarding hierarchy, going against superiors, this is the third offense!"

"Three crimes combined together, it is a serious offense. I will spare you one arm as it is your first offense! Or, you would have been dead!"

"King of the West, don't go too far. This is the capital, not your western domain. If you have the guts, go ahead and kill me!" Oscar Urban managed to catch his breath slightly and gritted his teeth as he shouted loudly at Billy.

"What a death wish! As you wish!" Night Orchid frowned, curved blade in hand, cold light flashing as she quickly darted out.

"No!" Both Ebenezer Rowe and Stan Mitchell exclaimed in surprise at the same time, and both took action.

"Get lost!" Casey spoke in a low voice, and a tremendous force swept out from his palm.

Before their swords were in place, Ebenezer Rowe and Stan Mitchell hurtled a distance of about forty meters before crashing to the ground. Their entire aura greatly weakened.

"Half... Half-step War Grandmaster?!" the two of them trembled all over and their faces were full of horror as they realized Casey Kimmons's power.

Just as they were consumed by the fear of the Army of Bloodshadow and shock, Night Orchid's blade flashed past Oscar Urban's neck, leaving a trail of blood. Oscar fell to the ground and convulsed before going still. In that moment, he regretted everything. He had never expect his death to come this way. If he had known, he wouldn't have put his life on the line just to please those behind him. With Oscar's fall came a collective gasp from those present at Capital Defense Bureau - they shook with fear and panic in their eyes. Oscar Urban, one of the Imperial Guard Bureau's three deputy directors, was dead.

Spike Arnold stood by in awe; even he didn't expect Night Orchid to go through with it. It reminded him of when he first arrived in town three years ago with the former master. They were so miserable then that they couldn't even get out of Capital Defense Bureau before returning home empty- handed.

Compared to now, it was like night and day.

"Commander Gardner... this..." Ebenezer Rowe stood up from the ground and looked at Billy.

Oscar Urban was a member of his Capital Defense Bureau. Now that Oscar had been killed, how could he explain to his superiors what happened?

"Do you want to know why he had to die?" Billy responded in a deep voice.

"You can go back and check for yourself. Three months ago, there was an environmental project worth over 10 billion that opened for bidding in the capital city. At that time, companies under the control of powerful families participated in the bidding process. Both competing companies had casualties among their personnel. You should investigate what role Oscar played in all of this!"

On their way here earlier, when Billy saw Oscar trying to attack them, he instructed Night Orchid to look into him. Earlier, the reason Azure Fang only crippled one of Oscar Urban's arms was at Billy's directive. Billy granted Oscar a final chance that he ultimately squandered.

Billy's visit to the capital this time was intended as a deterrent, and since the other party seemed so eager for death, Billy was more than willing to oblige.

"What does it mean?" Ebenezer Rowe blinked slightly, having a vague guess in his mind.

"Figure it out on your own," Billy spoke calmly, pausing briefly before changing the topic. "Why did you specifically come to see me today? What's going on?"

"It... It's nothing," Ebenezer Rowe trembled slightly. "I heard that you are coming to the capital for an investigation, so I came to report and see if there are any instructions from you."

"You are considerate, Mr Rowe." Billy replied indifferently. "When it comes to SHADOW's investigations, we don't need outside help. You may leave."

"Commander Gardner..." Ebenezer Rowe paused before speaking again.

"SHADOW and the Capital Defense Bureau have their own responsibilities. The case that SHADOW is investigating is not within the jurisdiction of the Capital Defense Bureau, you can't help us!" Billy interrupted him.

After finishing his words, he waved his hand. "You may go now."

"Commander Gardner, I apologize for any offense caused today, my apologizes." Ebenezer Rowe continued, "The power of the aristocracy should not be underestimated. Commander Gardner, you must be careful."

For him, today's mission was already completed. From the beginning, Ebenezer Rowe never thought that he could take Commander Gardner to the Capital Defense Bureau. If Billy was so easily influenced by others, he wouldn't have earned the title.

This was also understood by those behind-the-scenes people as well. Sending Ebenezer Rowe out was just to give Billy a warning shot. Everyone knew that with just Ebenezer Rowe alone, it would be impossible to stop Billy Gardner. As for Oscar Urban's death, it was purely an accident - everything that happened to him was self-inflicted and no one else could be blamed.

"Thank you for reminding me," Billy said with a faint smile.

"Commander Gardner, I bid you farewell!" After bowing deeply in respect, Ebenezer Rowe turned around and left along with his team.

Stan Mitchell looked at Billy briefly before opening his mouth to say something but eventually gave up. With a hint of unwillingness on his face, he turned around and left as well.

"Are you okay, Brigham?" Night Orchid asked him after everyone had left.

"Thank you for your concern, madam. I'm fine." Brigham Bush replied.

Night Orchid nodded slightly and said, "Take the other brothers to get treated."

"Yes, Madam!" Brigham Bush then led several SHADOW guards away.

"Commander, the Imperial Guard Bureau is unlikely to give up easily. They..." Spike Arnold came to Billy's side and spoke up.

"Ebony Lord, don't worry. Even if they had ten times the courage, they wouldn't dare act recklessly!" Judge responded from the side.

"Oscar was supposed to die anyway. If they really want to make a big deal out of this, he'll be their downfall!"

"But..." Spike Arnold's face flashed with a hint of worry.

"Ebony Lord, don't worry about it. There's nothing to fear from just one Imperial Guard Bureau!" Casey interrupted him. "And besides, I know Ebenezer Rowe pretty well, he's quite influential and knows how to weigh his options."

"... Okay then..." Spike Arnold didn't press the issue any further.

"When are we leaving, boss?" Soul Chaser looked at Billy and asked.

"The one we've been waiting for have arrived!" Before Billy could respond, Casey said as he narrowed his eyes slightly and gazed ahead.

Upon hearing his words, "Five Sharp Blades" and Spike Arnold had their pupils shrink slightly in unison. The next moment, they all sensed an imposing aura heading towards them from the direction of the courtyard.

"A powerful War Grandmaster?!"

A hint of solemnity flashed across everyone's faces.
