Zeke said, “Why do you need to wait a hundred years if you want the ancient martial arts skills of the Four Great Martial Houses. Citizens of Eurasia have the responsibility to serve in the army. The Four Hidden Sects are included too as they are in Eurasia. If they’re not going to serve in the army, no problem. Then they should hand over the martial arts techniques and contribute to the country. If they choose not to serve in the army or share the techniques, then the Four Hidden Sects can get lost from Eurasia.”
The Prime Minister swallowed nervously.
In truth, his predecessors had thought about this.
But they banished the thought in the end because the Four Hidden Sects had extremely strong warriors. There were even rumors that they had warriors of the Ultimate Class!
If they ever fought back, it would cause an apocalypse.
When that happens, Eurasia might not be able to subdue them.
And now, Zeke had the same thoughts too.
Everyone knew the determination of the Great Marshal. Once he decided on something, it would be hard to change his mind.
If he really did something that forced the Four Hidden Sects to rebel, he wouldn’t be able to stop them if they joined forces.
A disaster would definitely fall on Eurasia.
Prime Minister said almost pleadingly, “Great Marshal, this is a matter of great importance. You mustn’t act recklessly.”
“Prime Minister, this is a conflict between the Four Hidden Sects and me. Do not interfere,” Zeke stated.
He looked at the time and added, “Another ten minutes have passed. Since the leader of the Carter family still isn’t here, it’s time to behead another outer sect disciple.”
Zeke’s gaze fell on Hans and said, “Well then, let’s kill you this time.”
The Prime Minister was in a pit of despair when he heard what Zeke had said.
He’s really crossed the line this time.
If he really kills the head of the Carter outer sect, the conflict between Eurasia and the Four Hidden Sects would be completely irreconcilable.
The Prime Minister tried to stop Zeke, but Killer Wolf immediately wrapped his arms around the former.
“Prime Minister, follow me. I have a secret to tell you.”
The Prime Minister kept struggling as he growled, “You animal! Let me go! You’re all acting like you want to poke a hole in the sky.”
“It’s fine. Even if there actually is a hole in the sky, Zeke will have a way to fix it.”
With that, Killer Wolf carried the Prime Minister away.
In the meantime, Zeke pulled out the Dragon King Sword from the ground and strode toward Hans.
“Do you want to do it yourself, or should I send you off?”
Hans’s expression darkened.
I’ve underestimated the Great Marshal’s guts and ambition.
They even dared to humiliate the Prime Minister.
It looks like he really has the guts to destroy us.
Of course, Hans didn’t think that Zeke could actually destroy the Carter sect.
However, it would be extremely embarrassing for them if the Great Marshal barged into the sect.
How would we, the Four Hidden Sects, keep our foothold if that were to happen?
I have to stop Williams, even if it means I have to sacrifice my own life. I have to protect the last of the Carter family’s dignity.
Hans shouted to the inside of the Carter family’s residence, “Attention, warriors of the Carter outer sect! Get onto the city walls and prepare for S-grade defense! Leave no mercy to those who try to barge into our residence!”
The moment he completed his sentence, the inner part of the Carter sect started to buzz.
Countless warriors stood on the walls surrounding the Carter sect’s grounds and prepared to engage in battles.
There were at least ten thousand men there.
Among these men, there was a King Class warrior and a dozen Archduke warriors.
All their warriors had ranks of Grand Master or above.
Most of them were just a step away from becoming Archdukes too.
With military powers like this, they could defeat a country if they were on the frontiers.
Zeke exclaimed, “The Carters really lives up to your name. The outer sect alone already has military powers like this. Your inner sect must be even more powerful! If we put the Carter family on the battlefield, you’ll definitely be strong enough to fight against powerful enemies. But too bad. The Carter family is just a bunch of cowards. You secluded yourselves from the world after all.”
Zeke was complimenting the Carter family for having great military powers in the beginning, but he immediately insulted them afterward by saying that they were a bunch of cowards.
The Carters were fuming by the end of his sentence.
