Fade sheathed his long sword and placed his hands behind his back. He swept his gaze across the crowd and focused on Java. Looking at the dozen or so martial artists who were rushing over, he coldly said, "Dachlan had humiliated me, I must slay him!" "If you can't accept it, you are free to challenge me."
The scene fell into dead silence. Not a single person dared to respond.
Their gazes shifted, all avoiding his stare. No one dared to challenge him.
After all, their strength was not much different than that of Dachlan's.
If he was killed by Fade with one blow, they would be no match for him.
Seeing this, Fade revealed a disdainful sneer. He turned around and prepared to leave.
However, at this moment, there was a rumbling sound.
Looking up, a few helicopters were flying in his direction. On the ground, there were tanks and troops approaching.
In the distance. Fade could even see a row of cannons aiming at him.
"It seems like the Koland military wants me to stay." He sneered and flew over to the west.
Seeing this, the helicopters immediately followed suit.
At the same time, someone shouted with a megaphone, "Fade, you have seriously violated our rights. Stop escaping and surrender now. Otherwise, we will launch an attack."
Upon hearing the military's announcement, the martial artists who had been scared a moment ago regained their confidence. They were hoping that the military could deal with him.
When Fade heard it, he turned his gaze toward the helicopter. He waved his right hand in that direction.
In an instant, a red light shot through the air and went right at the helicopter.
The official who had previously shouted over the megaphone was instantly stunned. He shouted hurriedly, "Avoid it, quick!"
However, Fade's attack was so fast that the pilot could not react in time at all. All he could do was to stare as the blast of energy headed towards him.
The energy was surging with great power and it was about to pierce through the helicopter.
Just as everyone on board was in despair, the energy suddenly changed its direction. It grazed past the helicopter then flew behind them.
With a loud boom, it exploded into flames.
On the ground, cries of horror could be heard.
The senior official on the plane turned around and saw that the television tower atop the mountain had collapsed in the flames.
At this moment, Fade put his hands behind his back again and threatened coldly, "Are you sure I should stay?"
In the helicopter, the senior official was in a cold sweat. He stared at the fire burning behind him and clenched his jaw. Eventually, he ordered, "Retreat. Let him leave!"
Upon receiving the order, the soldiers and tanks stopped moving. All the cannons were also turned away. The helicopters began to move further away, no longer blocking Fade's path.
Seeing this, he snorted, turned into a shadow and left.
When Fade's figure finally disappeared in sight, everyone around the Sogo Studio ruins finally let out long sighs of relief. Beads of sweat trickled down their forehead like a loose tap.
By the time Fade returned to Capital City, the news of the destruction of Sogo Studio and Dachlan's death had already spread around the world.
"Mr. Chen, the negotiation team heading to Jade City are all compiled here in this list. Would you like to take a look?" The staff member handed over a list and asked respectfully.
Fade looked at the list. There were a few familiar names, but the rest were mostly just regular employees. As such, he didn't have any opinions and said, "Looks good to me!"
After settling all his work, he returned home.
Before he even had the time to sit down, his phone rang.
Fade picked up the phone. "Hello!"
"President Chen, is that you?" The voice on the other side was very respectful.
"Yes, speaking. Who's on the line?" Fade asked.
"President Chen, I'm a secretary working under the president department at Fei Enterprises Holdings Inc."
"Fei Enterprises Holdings Inc? Is something wrong?" He was a little surprised. He never expected a call from the company.
"President Chen, it's not about the business. It's about Miss Wei!"
"Miss Wei, Sister Lily! What happened to her?" Fade asked hurriedly.
"She's been overworking herself. Her body can't take it anymore. She's actually been sick for quite a while, but she refuses to take a break. I keep asking her to go for a check up at the hospital, or at least take a rest at home, but she just wouldn't listen to me. I don't know what else to do, so I called you," the secretary said meekly.
After listening, his expression darkened. "She's sick? I'll be right over!"
After hanging up the phone, he got up and rushed to Fei Enterprises Holdings Inc.
