Chapter 373 Harlan Holmes's Decision

"Azure Dragon, are you interested in going to the Southern Territory?" Billy asked.

"Huh?" Azure Dragon was momentarily surprised. "What do you mean?"

"You're in for some good news. You should thank boss, Azure Dragon!" Casey chimed in after a moment.

"I still don't understand." Azure Dragon said, still puzzled.

"I'm transferring you to the Southern Territory, and Black Tortoise will be your deputy. How does that sound?" Billy said with a faint smile.

"What?" Azure Dragon exclaimed. "Are you joking? What about Harlan Holmes?"

Black Tortoise, who was standing by, was also taken aback.

"Harlan Holmes is being transferred back to the Imperial Guard Bureau in the capital." Billy replied. "The former head of the Imperial Guard Bureau, Stan Mitchell, is being transferred to the Special Patrol Squadron."

"Boss, are you serious?" Azure Dragon finally realized that Billy was not joking.

"What do you think?"

"To save the people of the Holmes Clan, Harlan Holmes voluntarily gave up his position as Commander of the Southern Territory?" Bob Stokes asked.

This was a question that Casey and the others were also curious about, though they already knew the answer. It was evident that this was indeed the case.

"With the Holmes clan in such a situation, it would have been awkward for him to remain in the War Department." Billy said as he picked up a teacup and took a sip. "Originally, he wanted to resign from the official position and become a civilian, but I suggested to General Wilson that he be transferred to the Imperial Guard Bureau. General Wilson agreed verbally, and he should be visiting Central Sky Office tomorrow to discuss the matter."

"Harlan Holmes is a decent person in all aspects other than his noble birth, and his character is suitable for the Imperial Guard Bureau. You should consider it." Billy added.

"If it's your arrangement, I won't hesitate. It's settled." Bob replied.

"Good!" Billy nodded. He then turned to Azure Dragon and said, "Azure Dragon, you and Black Tortoise should also consider it. If you agree, I'll give my response to General Wilson."

Previously, Cole Wilson had only told him that Harlan Holmes was willing to leave the Southern Territory but hadn't mentioned who would replace him. Billy naturally understood that the War Department was offering him a deal. Listening to General Wilson's words, he had formed such an idea.

The situation in the Eastern Territory had now stabilized, and Casey had it well under control. Azure Dragon's departure at this time wouldn't have a significant impact. This opportunity was rare for both Azure Dragon and Black Tortoise, despite the challenges and pressures it would bring. Furthermore, the Eastern, Southern, and Western Territories formed a connected line, so even if there were any unexpected developments in the Southern Territory, the Eastern and Western Territories could provide immediate support.

"I agree, boss." Azure Dragon and Black Tortoise replied simultaneously. sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ FindNøvᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"In addition, starting next month, Vermilion Bird will be promoted to Deputy Commander of the Western Territory. You should quickly select four legion commanders from among your subordinates and submit the list to General Wilson."

"What?" Vermilion Bird was surprised but quickly said, "Thank you, boss!"

Azure Fang and the others congratulated the three of them.

"The five of you should also work on developing your subordinates as quickly as possible," Billy said to Azure Fang and the others. "You have three months to cultivate at least one person who can take over your position."

"Understood!" Azure Fang and the others responded loudly.

Everyone understood that Billy was preparing to establish a presence in the capital.

"I promised General Wilson that I would take office in the capital in five months. But before that, your main task is to improve your own strength." Said Billy.

"Since you're all here, how about spending a few days in the capital?" added Billy.

"Yes, Commander!" everyone replied.

They all knew that Billy's arrangements today marked the beginning of his plans for them in the capital. While the process was daunting and challenging, it was an opportunity for them to achieve rapid breakthroughs in their cultivation. It was a privilege that countless martial artists dreamed of.

"Bob, do you know everyone here?" Billy asked with a smile.

"Hold on a moment. Let me guess and see if I can guess them all correctly!"

"Haha, if you guess them all correctly, I'll treat you to a full course meal at a top restaurant in the capital!" Casey laughed.

"But if you can't guess, I won't make you treat us to a full course meal, just a nice meal will do!" he added.

"Alright!" Bob perked up. "Casey, that's what you said!"

"Yea!" Casey smiled again.

Bob nodded energetically and began, "Let's start with Azure Dragon."

Afterward, he began to list the names of everyone present as if he were reciting a treasure trove of information. Bob Stoles had gathered a lot of information, not only about their names but also some of their secrets. However, this was only scratching the surface compared to what Billy knew about them.

"Casey, how did I do?" After finishing, Bob looked at Casey with a proud expression. "Looks like you need to book a restaurant in advance, you can make the call now."

"Did you forget someone?" Casey asked, still smiling. He clearly had some confidence in this bet.

"What do you mean?"

"Mr Stokes, you shouldn't be bullying people like this. Am I not considered a person?" Stout, sitting in the corner of the hall and engrossed in his phone, raised his head and grumbled, clearly feeling a bit hurt. Bob paused for a moment and asked, "Aren't you the chef of SHADOW?"

The others all burst into laughter. Finally managing to suppress his laughter, Casey looked at Bob and advised, "Bob, I suggest you apologize to our chef as soon as possible, or you'll regret it!" "What do you mean?" Bob asked, looking a bit perplexed. He didn't have any information about a Stout in his knowledge.

"Although our chef friend might have slightly lower martial arts skills than you, if he gets upset, I can assure you that, except for boss, nobody here would dare to mess with him." Casey added with a grin. Bob was puzzled again, "Wait a minute, Stout, could it be that you're from Secret Essences?"

Based on Casey's words, he immediately thought of a possibility. Aside from martial arts, there was only one thing Stout could excel in, and that was medical and poison techniques. He also knew about Billy's connection to Secret Essences, so it wasn't far-fetched to assume that Stout was from there.

"Listen, Bob, if you don't apologize soon, watch out for his sister dealing with you!" Billy chimed in with a smile.

Bob jumped up. "Are you Ivy's younger brother, Damian Chandler?"
