Chapter 371 Enough to Wipe Out Three Families!

"Commander Gardner, if you have evidence to prove that my younger brother is responsible for this, please present the evidence!" Blaze Holmes spoke coldly. "If you have no evidence, then please refrain from making baseless accusations. We can have Central Sky Office and the Ministry of War come to mediate."

It seemed that he was unaware of the relationship between Bob Stokes and Billy.

"Have you thought it through? Do you need evidence for the truth?" Billy calmly reiterated, "I can provide you with evidence, but after I present it, I can't promise the survival of anyone from the Holmes Clan, including your successors."

"Commander Gardner, there's no need for empty threats!" Blaze Holmes furrowed his brows. "If you have evidence, present it, but don't overstate your claims. We are willing to cooperate with any investigation."

From his perspective, he firmly believed that Billy had no evidence. Such matters were typically conducted discreetly, and there was no way Billy could have obtained evidence.

"Very well, as you wish," Billy said calmly. "Remember, this is the path you've chosen, don't blame anyone else." Afterward, he turned to Casey and said, "Give them the evidence."

"Understood!" Casey nodded and reached for an electronic device from one of the Bloodshadow guards. He began operating it.

"Wait!" Just as Casey was about to hand the device to Blaze Holmes, a voice came from the entrance of the estate.

Following the voice, a burly, military-clad man with thick eyebrows and a robust physique walked in, exuding a strong battlefield aura. Following behind him was none other than the Ministry of War's First Commander, Cole Wilson.

"Harlan?!"

When Avery, Blaze and Brute saw the military-clad man, their faces registered shock, and they even ignored Cole Wilson behind him.

"Grandfather, Uncle Brute, Father!" Harlan greeted the three of them first before turning to Billy and bowing, saying, "I am Harlan Holmes from the southern territory. I pay my respects to Commander Gardner." "General Holmes, it's been a while!" Billy narrowed his eyes slightly.

Harlan Holmes, the most outstanding member of the Holmes Clan's younger generation, held sway in the southern territory. Billy was well aware of this.

During the recent assassination attempt on him by the Wu Du Sect from Tyren, the assassin had infiltrated from the Southern Territory. Following the incident, the Ministry of War had dealt with those below the rank of Vice Commander in the Southern Territory but had only issued a verbal warning to Commander Harlan Holmes.

Upon hearing this punishment, most people had immediately assumed that Harlan had a powerful background. However, Billy knew that the leniency toward Harlan was because he had nothing to do with the assassination attempt. Although Harlan hailed from a noble clan, when it came to critical matters of principle, he would not act foolishly. Otherwise, he would not have held the position of Southern Territory Commander for three years.

"Commander Holmes, you've returned just in time." Casey said with a faint smile and then nodded toward Cole Wilson, greeting, "General Wilson." Sᴇaʀch Thᴇ (F)indNƟvᴇl.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Kimmons, it's been a while, and your cultivation has improved again. Not bad," Cole Wilson smiled and then turned to Billy. "Commander Gardner, I came uninvited. I hope I'm not causing any inconvenience." "General Wilson, your presence is always welcome," Billy responded, though he was unsure of Cole Wilson's intentions.

"Is he here to intercede on behalf of the Holmes Clan?" Billy thought.

However, based on his knowledge of Cole Wilson, he didn't think he was that kind of person.

"Harlan, why have you returned?" At this moment, Blaze Holmes asked.

"Grandfather, you're all making a mess of things." Harlan sighed heavily, his face full of sorrow.

"Harlan, what does it mean?" asked Blaze Holmes, puzzled.

"Grandfather, you've made a grave mistake," Tan Harlan said with a look of sadness. "You've dragged me into it as well."

"Is there a misunderstanding? What have you heard?" Avery Holmes asked his son, his eyes showing a hint of confusion.

"Three of you, have you thought this through? Do you want the Holmes Clan to be exterminated?" Cole Wilson's face was filled with anger. "You should be thankful that you have such an outstanding grandson Harlan has returned to redeem your mistakes!"

"Harlan, you..." Blaze Holmes's face twitched several times.

"Grandfather, what you've done is a heinous crime of conspiring with outsiders and attempting to harm the Glavale Ministry of War's soldiers. It's enough to wipe out the whole clan!"

"If you want to keep your actions a secret, you must not do anything. Do you think Commander Gardner has no evidence? You're thinking too simplistically!"

"Commander Gardner hasn't presented the evidence so far because he's giving the Holmes Clan one last chance!"

As the commander of a region himself, Harlan Holmes was well aware of Billy's intentions. Although he had never seen the evidence in Billy's hands, he was absolutely certain that Billy wouldn't make empty threats. Furthermore, he believed that Billy's decision to withhold the evidence was indeed a last chance for the Holmes Clan. Otherwise, Billy could have simply handed the evidence over to Central Sky Office and the entire Holmes Clan, including himself, would face annihilation.

"Harlan, it's us who've dragged you into this..." Blaze exhaled deeply, looking as if he'd aged several decades. Hearing his grandson's words, he no longer doubted that the evidence against the Holmes clan was truly in Billy's hands. Moreover, he had already vaguely guessed the purpose of Harlan's return to the capital. Just as Cole Wilson had said, he had come back to atone for their sins. With that thought in mind, he knelt directly in front of Billy.

"Commander Gardner, this matter has nothing to do with Harlan. He had no knowledge of it from start to finish. Please, in the spirit of your comradeship in the War Department, spare him." Blaze implored. "The entire affair was orchestrated by the three of us, and regardless of the consequences, we are willing to bear them. We only hope that Commander Gardner won't blame Harlan Holmes. He truly knew nothing...' At this point, Blaze Holmes's only hope was to secure his grandson's safety. He was well aware of the grave crimes committed by the Holmes clan, and he knew exactly what his fate would be. It wasn't just him; even his younger brother and eldest son likely had no chance of survival. But as long as Harlan Holmes remained unharmed, there was still hope for this clan.

Following suit, Brute Holmes and Avery Holmes both knelt as well, their faces filled with despair. Whatever Blaze Holmes could think of, they could too.

"Have mercy, Commander Gardner. It has nothing to do with Harlan!" Avery struggled to speak. "It was all done by the three of us, and we are willing to face the consequences with our lives!"
