The War God's Homecoming novel Chapter 384

Chapter 384 Pressed by Circumstances

"Senior Elder, let's... let's go," Nicole Manning, trembling, approached Nigel Becker. Her face had turned deathly pale, and she couldn't stop shivering.

Nigel let out a deep breath and looked at Donald. "Donald, remember, this is your own choice, don't blame..."

"Don't waste words. If you want to fight, fight. If you don't dare to fight, get back to your Purple Light Sect." Donald interrupted him directly.

"You..." Nigel was so infuriated that his face turned red. As a dignified War God-Emperor, he felt like he was about to explode from the humiliation.

"Donald, you remember this. I'll settle this score with you sooner or later!" Nigel forcefully suppressed his boiling emotions and turned to Billy. "And you, your life is mine. We'll meet again, and I'll take it!"

"Get lost!" Donald shouted again.

"Nicole, let's go!" Nigel took a deep breath and turned to leave, with Nicole Manning quickly following.

"Am I allowing you to leave?" Just as Nicole Manning had taken a few steps, Billy's voice rang out, causing her to stumble and almost fall.

She quickly looked back at Nigel Becker with a trembling voice. "Senior Elder, he..."

"Don't go too far!" Nigel Becker turned around to confront Billy.

"Today, I can spare her life thanks to Donald. But she must kneel and apologize to my brothers, or neither of you will leave!"

"Donald, are you going to intervene or not?" Nigel Becker gritted his teeth and shouted.

"Why are you calling me? This is your business, none of my concern." Donald shrugged.

"You..." Nigel was close to spitting blood.

Before Nigel Becker could finish speaking, Nicole Manning voluntarily knelt down in front of the SHADOW members, apologizing and kowtowing.

"I... I'm sorry, I won't dare again, please spare us..." Faced with death, she finally lowered her proud head. She was well aware that with Commander Gardner's personality, if she didn't apologize today, she wouldn't leave this courtyard alive.

"Go!" Bob Stokes waved his hand.

"Thank you!" Nicole Manning breathed a sigh of relief and quickly got up, then walked towards Nigel Becker.

"We will meet again soon!" Nigel Becker's almost roaring voice echoed throughout the entire courtyard.

"Elder Donald, Elder Hum and Elder Rowe, thank you!" Billy then walked over to the three of them and gave a slight bow.

These three were highly respected figures, deserving of his respect in terms of status, position, and contributions to the country. Bob Stokes, Night Orchid, and Stout followed suit, bowing to them as well.

"Elder Hum, why did you come today?" Bob Stokes then turned to the old man in gray.

Bob Stokes was his immediate superior, the Chief Executive of Central Sky Office, and held the position of Chief Executive before him.

"Why didn't you go to work and came over here to goof off?" Hum glared at him.

"I haven't seen Gardner in a long time, so I came over to visit him." Bob replied.

"Three honored gentlemen, would you like to sit inside?" Billy smiled and suggested.

"Sure!" the three nodded.

In no time, they all arrived in the council hall and took their seats. Night Orchid made hot tea for everyone.

"Gardner, you were too impulsive today." Another elder in blue robes said as he sipped his tea.

"Donald, do you happen to know my father?" Stout chimed in.

"Not only do I know him, but he used to come play chess with me before he went into seclusion. He still owes me several thousand in gambling debts and hasn't paid up to this day!" Donald wore a disdainful expression.

Stout cleared his throat once again.

"Donald, after today's incident, do you think they would dare to tear up the agreement?" Night Orchid continued to inquire.

"Listen to his nonsense, he doesn't have the guts!" Donald retorted. After a brief pause, he added, "However, I'm afraid this agreement won't hold for much longer."

"Why?" Night Orchid asked.

"The circumstances are forcing it." Donald replied in a contemplative tone.

"Not only this agreement, but I'm concerned that the ironclad rule about War God-Emperors not attacking ordinary martial artists won't last much longer either."

"They wouldn't dare!" Bob Stokes said solemnly.

This rule came from Ether Mountain, which was the guardian of the rules.

"In the face of immense interests, there's nothing they wouldn't dare to do." Zero Rowe said with a piercing gaze.

After a while of further discussion, Elder Rowe and Elder Hum bid farewell, and Bob Stokes was dragged back to work by Hum. Night Orchid and Stout continued to help the SHADOW guards recover from their injuries, leaving only Billy and Donald in the meeting hall.

"Donald, thanks!" Billy smiled at Donald.

"Don't pretend to be clueless with me!" Donald gave Billy a sharp look. "You're as clear as day. I didn't come here today to protect you, but to protect him! If I hadn't come, you would have killed him today!"
