Chapter 1755


    The moment Fade walked a few steps, Daemyn frowned and roared at him, "What are you doing?


    Who said you''re allowed to leave? Did I give you my permission?"


    Fade''s brows furrowed and he retorted coldly, "I don''t need your permission to leave."


    After saying that, he turned around.


    With Fade taking the lead, the other martial artists, including Tom, immediately stood up.


    "Brother Fade, wait for me. I''ll go with you."

    "What the hell is this? I''ve been working hard for over half a month. Now, someone is here to im


    all the credits. I quit."


    "I can''t afford to offend him, but I can''t avoid the monsters either! I''m leaving!"


    "I can''t deal with this man. I just can''t. I''d better go home."


    More than twenty martial artists gradually left the crowd as they spoke, following Fade to leave.


    Some soldiers were also vexed and wanted to quit. However, due to the differences in their status,


    they had no choice but to stay. They bowed their heads and stood where they were.


    When Daemyn saw this, he huffed and his face flushed red. Glowering at them, he bellowed, "What


    are all of you doing? This is a barrack! Who gave permission for all of you to leave? Deserters will


    be shot to death!"


    However, no one paid any attention to him. They all followed Fade and left.


    "Guards, arrest these deserters for me," Daemyn shouted and instructed someone to take action.


    Jacques hurriedly stepped forward to stop him. He exined, "Lieutenant Hsiang, we can''t do that.


    They''re not our troops but Dragonville''s local martial artists. They are here to assist us in the


    investigation. Based on the previous agreement, they can choose to leave whenever they want."


    Upon hearing this, Daemyn''s face darkened even more. He cursed through clenched teeth, "What a


    lousy group of rogue martial artists. They don''t respect authority at all."


    On the other hand, Lencho hurriedlyforted him, "Mr. Hsiang, let them go. Their presence is not


    a big deal. I alone can handle Twin-dragon Vige. It''s good that these useless idiots leave. It would


    be less troublesome for us if they drag us down."


    Daemyn rxed slightly upon hearing this. He gave a cold jeer and disappeared back inside his


    tent to rest.


    Lencho then barked at Jacques, "Quickly prepare some wine and food. Get us some good


    delicacies and antique wine. We don''t want any of the army scraps."


    "But..." Jacques was helpless, but he had no choice but to turn around and make the preparations


    as ordered.


    At the same time, Fade and the group of twenty martial artists left, exasperated.


    "D*mn, what on earth is this? A second-generation idiot, relying on his father''s power, acting


    arrogantly toward us!"


    "We worked to our bones, but he said that we were timid. I really wanted to beat him into a pulp at


    that moment."


    "Forget it. His background is not one that ordinary people can offend. Did you see that man,


    Lencho? He is a master too. I''m afraid he''s an advanced ck Level martial artist."


    "If something like this happens again in the future, I won''t participate anymore. It''s too much of a


    grievance to be suffering so hard for nothing."


    "We can forget about it, but Mr. Chen is different. He''s our hero. If it wasn''t for him, we wouldn''t


    have been able to break into the mountain forest and dragged on the matter. Who are they have to


    look down on him?"


    "That''s right. Compared to Mr. Chen, he is not worth a nce."


    Fade listened to everyone''s ranting and chuckled. Then, he said, "Forget it, I don''t care about these.


    I just hope that they can solve the problem. Otherwise, the people will still have to suffer."


    Everyone heaved a heavy sigh, then went their separate ways home.


    After Fade returned, he met up with Tom, and some other friends, including Fatty, to have a good


    meal and relieve some of his frustration.


    The next day, he nned to stay at home for the entire day. However, Quin had arranged for him a


    task for the day.


    Shinnie was returning from East Coast, so she had Fade pick her up.


    Shinnie was Francesca''s granddaughter. Quin always had a good rtionship with her and treated


    her like a little sister. The previous year, Shinnie took the college entrance examination and passed


    with flying colors. She got into the well-known East Coast University, one of the best universities in


    the country, then began her life in the bustling city.


    Now that it was the university''s winter holidays, Shinnie was returning from East Coast. They were


    informed that some of her friends would being over too, so Fade would also be picking them


    up.


    Thinking that it had been a long time since he saw Shinnie, he immediately got up from bed, got


    dressed, and left the house,


    After waiting at the airport for around half an hour, he saw Shinnieing out with a suitcase.


    The Shinnie from two years ago was shy and timid. She would follow Fade from behind and call him


    ''Brother Chen'' shyly. However, the current Shinnie seemed to be taller and better at dressing up.


    She was pretty to start with, but now, she looked refreshing and gorgeous.


    As soon as they came out, many passersby couldn''t help ncing at Shinnie, stunned by her charm


    and beauty. They fixed their gaze on her unblinkingly.


    The little girl didn''t seem to be used to such a scenario. She pulled her cor up to cover her slightly


    flushed cheeks.


    When Fade noticed this, he smiled and waved with a call, "Shinnie, this way."


    She heard the shout and looked over to see him waving beside the car. She beamed instantly and


    grinned, "Brother Chen, why did youe to pick me up?"


    "What? You don''t like me picking you up?" He chuckled and knocked on her head.


    Shinnie covered her head and winced slightly, forming a cute expression. "Of course not. I just


    thought that you would still be in Capital City and won''t be returning so soon. That''s why..."


    "I''ve been back for more than half a month. I''ll be in Dragonville for some time," Fade said.


    "That''s great! So you''ll be spending the new year here in Dragonville, Brother Chen." The littledy


    was so excited that she jumped for joy.


    He opened the car''s trunk and took over her suitcase. Then, he asked, "Where are your friends?


    Didn''t you say your ssmates would being back with you?"


    As soon as he said that, she waved her hand, and four youngsters came over.


    There were two men and twodies. The couple walking in front were dressed fashionably, d in


    luxury brands worth at least a few thousand yuan. Obviously, they came from wealthy families.


    Although the second couple behind them was also dressed in trendy fashion, they were obviously


    not as wealthy as the couple in front of them.


    Moreover, the two people at the back clearly listened to the two at the front. Their manner of speech


    and attitude were even meek and submissive.


    The handsome man in his windbreaker grinned and walked over when he saw Shinnie waving her


    hand. He said, "Shinnie, your hometown, Dragonville, looks great! It''s colderpared to East


    Coast. I should have brought a few more clothes."


    Fadeughed at this, "It''s indeed a little cold. Get in the car. The heater is on, so you''ll feel warmer."
