The War God's Homecoming
Chapter 384 Pressed By Circumstances

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.

He was the former head of the Capital Defense Bureau and father of the current head, Ebenezer Rowe. And he had joined the Glavale Elder Council.

"Elder Rowe, I'm sorry. It was too noisy at the scene earlier, and I didn't hear your words. If you had arrived a little earlier, I wouldn't have killed him." Billy sincerely responded. Cough! Cough!

Bob Stokes and Stout were both choked by their tea. They were both impressed by Billy's acting deaf and dumb. Actually, everyone should have heard Billy shout loudly earlier. "You've given them an easy favor like this." Rowe asked.

"By the way, Elder Rowe, can you explain the agreement between you and the Ancient Martial Art Sect?" Bob Stokes couldn't help but ask.

"This matter is mainly Donald's responsibility, so let him explain it to you!" Rowe set down his teacup and said.

"Over twenty years ago, there was a fierce conflict between the capital and the ancient martial art world," Donald began after taking a sip of tea. "We won't go into the details of the cause, but it was essentially these parasites pushing their luck, and the capital had no choice but to take action."

"In that conflict, both sides suffered significant losses, with several War God-Emperors falling on both sides."

"Both sides realized that continuing the fight would lead to mutually assured destruction, so they voluntarily ceased hostilities."

"At the same time, they reached an agreement that War God-Emperors from both sides should not initiate attacks unless provoked."

"Additionally, War God-Emperors from hidden clans and sects are not allowed to enter the capital without permission."

"I see!" Bob Stokes nodded after hearing Donald's explanation.

"Donald, not all hidden clans and sects participated in that conflict, right?" Night Orchid asked.

"Of course not!" Donald nodded in response. "Not all clans and sects in the ancient martial arts world are parasites. Some have always been in sync with the capital. For example, Secret Essences, the sect Stout is part of, has been assisting the capital for years."

"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!"
