Chapter 151 Marquis From Mindia


    Chapter 151 Marquis From Mindia


    "Judge, are you itching for a fight?" Soul Chaser responded irritably.


    "I can''t, but Azure Dragon can do it. I can ask him to step in and with just 100, 000 Army of


    Bloodshadow soldiers we can easily take down the southern edge!"


    Although their enemies on the southern edge were indeed difficult opponents and it would be hard


    for SHADOW to handle it alone. But with the help of Army of Bloodshadow, it would be a piece of


    cake.


    The two things that made the southern edge so fearsome were poison and "Gu" (curses). Other


    than that their martial arts skills were only average. But among the hundreds of thousands in Army


    of Bloodshadow, there were many talented individuals who excelled in poisons and curses.


    Moreover, there were also members from Secret Essences Sect within the western medical team.


    Many members from Secret Essences Sect were experts in poisons.


    "Alright then, no one has thicker skin than you!" Judge shrugged his shoulders.


    "Okay!" Billy waved his hand. "Let''s get to work!"


    "Got it!" The five nodded simultaneously.


    With Billy''smand issued out, all SHADOW guards except those from the eastern district began


    moving into action.


    Mindia was a city located in the central district in the country of vale. It had always been a


    battleground for military strategists.


    On the second morning after Billy gave orders, three thousand SHADOWers gathered together and


    headed towards an enormous mansion located southward within the city limits of Mindia. The


    owner of this mansion was named Marquis, who was an influential figure within Mindia with


    connections throughout every corner.


    Usually he was surrounded by people wherever he went even when facing those high up on the


    politicaldder; however, today Marquis received only one distinguished guest - someone important


    from the Central District War Department.


    "Mr Cook, it''s a pleasure to have you here. Pleasee in." Marquis served a cup of tea to


    Sebastian Cook and continued, "This is some nice tea that I just got my hands on. Please try it and


    see how it tastes."


    Marquis lowered his posture, fully aware of the power and influence of this important figure in front


    of him. Not only was Sebastian Cook personally terrifyingly powerful, but he also held a high


    position and had enough weight tomand respect from others.


    "Mr Marquis, you tter me, and thank you. It''s my honor to be invited by you." Said Sebastian Cook


    with a smile as he took the teacup.


    "Your words are too kind. To be able to invite someone like you is truly an honor for me," replied


    Marquis with a smile after pausing briefly. After a momentary pause, he continued, "How has


    general been recently? I heard that he went to the capital city a few days ago. Everything there


    should be settled by now?"


    "It''s all taken care of!" Sebastian Cook smiled faintly and then asked, "It seems that you are quite


    concerned about what happened in the capital city?"


    "How could someone like me care about such big matters? I''m still busy dealing with trivial matters


    here in Mindia!" After slightly hesitating for a moment, Marquis replied with another smile.


    "You''re being modest," said Sebastian Cook before changing topics, "About that funding we talked


    aboutst time..."


    "Don''t worry, Mr Cook. I''ve already prepared everything and am just waiting for your word before


    transferring it." As he lifted his teacup for another sip, Marquis reassured him confidently.


    "Haha! Thank you so much again!" Sebastianughed once more.


    "It''s nothing at all." Replied Marquis with yet another smile as they continued their conversation until


    they were interrupted by hurried footsteps outside.


    An unhappy-looking middle-aged man appearing to be some sort of supervisor or manager entered


    into their presence abruptly.


    "Rude!" Marquis''s face darkened. "Can''t you see that I''m receiving a distinguished guest?"

    "Marquis, something has happened!" The manager trembled all over.


    "So flustered, what kind of decorum is this?" Marquis''s tone was harsh. "What happened?"


    "Azure Fang led three thousand SHADOW men into the estate and our people couldn''t stop them."


    The manager responded after swallowing his saliva.


    "Hmm!?" A coldness spread from Marquis as he asked, "Why did SHADOWe to me?"


    As he spoke, a hint of bad conscience shed in his eyes.


    "He... he didn''t say, just said that if you don''t go see him within five minutes, he''ll tten the estate."


    "Rude!" Marquis shouted angrily. "Who gave Azure Fang the courage toe here and show off?!"


    After speaking, he looked at Sebastian Cook and said, "Mr Cook, I''m sorry for disturbing you. How


    about we meet another day instead?"


    "Let''s go take a look together now. I also want to see what business SHADOW has with you."


    Sebastian Cook stood up and walked towards the door.


    "That would be great! Thank you very much!" Marquis narrowed his eyes slightly. This was exactly


    what he wanted.


    Soon, they arrived at the square in front of the courtyard gate where five dozens of armed men


    followed behind Sebastian Cook. At the same time, around three hundred ck-d men ran out


    from various parts of the courtyard; each one looked unfriendly and clearly not ordinary


    practitioners.


    "Azure Fang, why such a big fuss? What brings you here?" Marquis narrowed his eyes slightly as


    he spoke calmly to Azure Fang.


    Before this, Marquis had conveyed his intention to form a connection with Azure Fang on multiple


    asions while keeping a very humble posture. But, Azure Fang always ignored him, not even


    bothering to acknowledge Marquis as a big shot. To make matters worse, SHADOW had raided one


    of his nightclubs where two fugitives had been hiding and ended up killing one of the hostesses.


    Marquis called Azure Fang before, hoping to smooth things over, but he was hung up on before he


    could finish speaking. Shortly after, Azure Fang and his crew surrounded the nightclub and arrested


    over a hundred people in retaliation. Since then, their rtionship had hit rock bottom with no


    further contact between them.


    "Take them away!" Azure Fang ordered without hesitation.


    With thatmand, three thousand SHADOWers moved in unison and surrounded Marquis'' men.


    "How dare you!" Marquis growled at Azure Fang. "I respect you as a man but that doesn''t mean I''m


    afraid of you! You better not push your luck!"


    Marquis never expected such an answer from Azure Fang, which only fueled his anger. He was a


    prominent figure in Mindia and thus he couldn''t ept being treated like this.


    "Why are you still standing there? Take action!" Azure Fang didn''t even give him a nce, and


    continued in a deep voice, "Anyone who obstructs the work of SHADOW is considered an ally of the


    same cause and is to be executed on the spot!"


    "Yes, sir!" Three thousand SHADOWers shouted in unison.


    Immediately after, they assumed their positions and were about to take action.


    "Stop!" Sebastian Cook shouted loudly, as a powerful aura emanated from his body.


    He was a Tier-two Battle God!


    People around him immediately felt suffocated and couldn''t help but shiver all over. Meanwhile,


    Marquis smirked slightly beside him, thinking that with this figure here, no matter what SHADOW


    hade for today, they were destined to leave empty-handed!
