Chapter 261 Not Punishable By Death


    Chapter 261 Not Punishable by Death


    "Do you know what the Yarwood family did?" Judge asked in a calm tone.


    "I don''t care about their business. I only know that the culprit has been brought to justice, so this


    case is closed!" Simon Holmes responded in a deep voice.


    "Tsk tsk, from your tone, you don''t sound like someone from the Imperial Guards. You sound more


    like someone from Central Heaven!" Judge spoke again. "But sorry to say, your orders won''t work


    on me."


    "How dare you!" A man behind Simon Holmes spoke angrily. "How dare you speak to Mr Holmes


    like that? You have some nerve! Even if your SHADOW leader were here, he would still have to


    greet Mr Holmes politely."


    "Is that so?" At this moment, Billy''s voice came from the martial arts hall.


    "Boss, are you awake now?" Judge grinned and went up to him. He intentionally dyed for half an


    hour just so Billy could sleep longer. Judge knew he never slept well when he returned to Ozin at


    night after being away for a while, since Harleen Knight was by his side.


    "You feeling itchy?" Billy nced at him.


    How could he be sleeping? He was discussing alchemy with Stout.


    "Hmm!?" When Simon Holmes saw Billy at that moment, his pupils shrank instantly into needle-like


    sizes and his whole body trembled involuntarily. He might not recognize Judge but he Knew who the


    King of the West was. He never thought this matter would actually rm Billy Gardner; an uneasy


    feeling rose in his heart as a result of it all.


    "And who are you again?" one of Simon''s subordinates who had spoken earlier looked Billy up and


    down and shouted loudly with an unfriendly tone of voice


    As soon as he spoke up, Simon Holmes pped him hard across the face causing bloodstains on


    his lips. Then, Simon Holmes quickly walked over to Billy and bowed deeply, "Commander


    Gardner!"


    As soon as these words were spoken out loud, the people present copsed once again onto their


    knees. One by one their hearts which had just calmed down began beating fiercely once more .


    And after hearing these words, Jack Warlord along with other core members of the Yarwood family


    showed deep despair on their faces. They realized, it was indeed Commander Gardner himself who


    had arrived. Their fate was sealed, and the Yarwood family was doomed!


    Jack Warlord suddenly seemed to age several decades. He was well aware that even if the elderly


    man he had called personally came to help, not just Simon Holmes''s intervention, it would be


    unlikely to save the Yarwood family.


    Commander Gardner was one of the most highly regarded ministers at the heart of the capital, and


    he was a pir of talent for vale.


    How could such a person submit to authority?


    Moreover, today''s matter was still the Yarwood family''s own doing. Including the several people


    brought by Simon Holmes, they all trembled uncontrobly upon hearing these words. They knew


    very well that Oscar Urban, the number five figure of the Imperial Guard Bureau, had been ordered


    to be executed by the King of the West. Moreover, after the incident, not a single person in the


    entire capital dared to speak up for Oscar Urban. It was as if he had died in vain.


    "First, tell me what the truth is about what you know." Billy said calmly as he looked at Simon


    Holmes.


    "I..." Simon Holmes took a deep breath and then recounted the information he had learned in detail.

    "You should be d you don''t know the truth!" After hearing these words, Billy''s eyes narrowed


    slightly. He naturally wanted to see if Simon Holmes knew the truth. If he knew, and still dared to


    come forward, then Simon Holmes would fail to return to the capital today.


    "Judge, let him hear the truth!" Billy turned to Judge and spoke.


    "Got it!" Judge took out his phone and yed the recording he had made earlier.


    "Jack Yarwood, you old bastard, dare to deceive us, I''ll cut you down!" Simon Holmes roared in


    anger after listening to the recording. Immediately, he took a sword from one of his attendants and


    swung it directly.


    "No, don''t..."


    Jack Yarwood cried out and rushed towards his father. But before he could reach Alex Yarwood, the


    sword''s edge had already shed past his neck, and his head soared into the sky.


    Jack Yarwood''s headless body fell lifeless to the ground. In that moment of temporarypse,


    endless regret surged in his heart.


    Because of Jesse Yarwood, the entire Yarwood family was implicated. Truly, they had brought this


    cmity upon themselves!


    "Father!" Jack Yarwood cried out in anguish and copsed.


    The rest of the Yarwood family members were all sitting on the ground, trembling and covered in


    cold sweat.


    "Commander Gardner, I''m truly sorry. I had no idea this old bastard would dare to fabricate the truth.


    I''m deeply sorry!" After he had cut down Jack Yarwood, Simon Holmes quickly came to Billy''s side


    and bowed deeply.


    At this moment, he felt a strong urge to beat Jack Yarwood''s lifeless body. He also felt a sense of


    relief because he knew that Billy had indirectly spared his life. Otherwise, there would have been no


    need for Billy to reveal himself so quickly or to inform him of the truth. Once he had officially taken


    action against SHADOW, his guilt would have been sealed. Obstructing SHADOW''s investigation


    was tantamount to being an aplice, and the punishment for that was death.


    "If I hadn''t been here today, would the Yarwood family have been able to save themselves?" Billy


    spoke again, his tone still calm.


    Simon Holmes let out a heavy sigh, a determined look in his eyes. He turned his wrist and brought a


    de down on his left arm. After the de passed, his hand fell to the ground, and blood sprayed


    out.


    "Sir!" The ten members of the Imperial Guard Bureau eximed in shock simultaneously.


    "Please, Commander Gardner, show mercy!" Simon Holmes clenched his teeth and looked at Billy.


    He knew very well that in today''s events, there was no way for him to escape unscathed. While he


    had been spared the death penalty, he still needed to provide an exnation. He hade here


    with his troops to seek retribution, and if he discovered that he was mistaken, then left unharmed,


    what did that make him in the eyes of the Western King?


    "Judge, proceed!" Billy ignored Simon Holmes and turned to Judge, speaking in a deep voice.


    "Yes, Commander!" Judge responded loudly. Then, he turned to the thousand SHADOW operatives


    and shouted, "Take all the Yarwood family members into custody!"


    "Yes, sir!" The crowd responded in unison.


    Half an hourter, Billy and his twopanions drove towards Ozin.


    "Boss, if I remember correctly, Simon Holmes should be a member of the capital city''s aristocracy,


    right? Why did you spare him?" Judge asked, knowing full well that Billy had intentionally spared


    that man''s life. Otherwise, Simon Holmes would have been on a one-way trip to the afterlife today.


    "Of the Imperial Guard Bureau''s members, except for Oscar Urban, the others are somewhat


    tolerable." Billy replied calmly. "Simon Holmes is guilty, but his crime doesn''t warrant death."


    "I see." Judge nodded in agreement.
