The War God's Homecoming novel Chapter 269

Chapter 269 Military Justice

"Stout, check the injuries of our brothers!" Billy loudly commanded, having already assessed the situation. Nearly half of his men had sustained various injuries, but fortunately, most were superficial.

"Yes, Commander!" Stout responded loudly and retrieved several medical kits from his person.

"You... you're Commander Gardner from Glavale?" The remaining Lord of Purgatory Gate finally realized and stammered as he looked at Billy.

"You're just figuring that out now?" White Tiger sneered.

Without hesitation, the man knelt before Billy, trembling and pleading for mercy.

"Please... please spare me, Commander Gardner..."

There was no room for him to be anything but terrified. The reputation of Glavale's Commander Gardner had already sent shockwaves through Place of Darkness over a year ago. He had never expected to encounter this legendary figure himself. Judging by the power of the strike he witnessed earlier, Commander Gardner's strength had increased significantly compared to a year ago. Such prowess was not something that Purgatory Gate could match, and he doubted there were many individuals in the entire Place of Darkness who could.

Before he could finish his plea, a powerful force from Billy rushed into him, and that man was sent flying seven to eight meters away. His meridians were shattered, and his cultivation was completely ruined. He was nothing more than a broken mess on the ground.

"You're... so ruthless..." The man struggled to speak two words before his eyes rolled back, and he lost consciousness.

"Boss, how did you all arrive so quickly? I thought it would take at least a couple of hours!" White Tiger grinned when he saw Billy.

"Are you serious?" Billy shot him a glare. "Didn't I tell you to stall them? What happened to that?"

"Boss, I didn't expect those bastards to set an ambush here, just waiting for us to jump into their trap." White Tiger scratched his head.

"Take him back for a thorough interrogation. We need to find out who's behind this!" Billy ordered, his suspicions growing stronger. He had suspected that capturing Samuel Watson was a trap to draw out the members of Rakshasa Hall. The situation he witnessed earlier had only confirmed his suspicions.

"Got it!" White Tiger nodded.

"Commander Gardner!" James Harper entered the room and bowed respectfully.

Billy acknowledged and handed him a healing pill. "Take this pill to aid your recovery. Your injuries need attention."

"Thank you, Commander Gardner!" James accepted the pill and swallowed it.

"Commander Gardner!" Rakshasa walked in, intending to kneel but was lifted by a gust of wind Billy produced.

Unbeknownst to her, she hadn't known Billy would come. She had been on the brink of despair before she saw him. While speaking, she cast a disapproving glance at White Tiger. This guy, he knew Billy was coming, but he didn't bother to inform her. She had almost committed suicide because of it. When Rakshasa had seen Billy, she felt like she had been given a second chance at life.

"You're doing well, you've reached the pinnacle level!" Billy smiled. "Keep up the good work and strive to complete your cultivation. Here, take this healing pill. It will help with your injuries."

"Thank you, Commander!" Rakshasa accepted the pill with gratitude and responded, "I won't disappoint your expectations."

"Commander Gardner!" Samuel Watson approached Billy, bowing deeply. "Thank you for saving my life, Commander!"

His thanks came from the bottom of his heart. He hadn't expected the King of the West, Commander Gardner, to personally come and rescue him. This kind of treatment was something that very few individuals in the entire country would ever experience. Without Billy's timely intervention, not only he but even White Tiger and the others would have been in grave danger. In that case, he would have been responsible for the deaths of hundreds of people just to save himself.
