106 Is There Anyone from the North here?
He did not take this sword from the members of the Preston main team, but from the North.
“In your dreams,” Sebastian Wood said indifferently. “You know how the Preston team does things. Don’t use outsiders to threaten us. The special operations team will not be threatened!”
“Since that’s the case, let me send her on her way!” Sully Cage raised his blade slightly.
Sebastian squinted his eyes and was about to make a move. It would be best if he could save Xana Thomas, but if he failed, the girl’s life would be in danger.
In the past three days, the Preston team had lost nearly 20 people in order to kill Sully.
Hence, Sebastian would not compromise.
Joseph Thomas knew how dangerous it was to be a martial artist, and since he had the guts to say it, he was able to do anything that was crazy.
“Don’t touch my sister,” he said angrily, “or I’ll make sure that there’ll be a warlord among the people hunting you.”
“Warlord level? What’s there to be afraid of? Back in the day, I killed three foreign generals with the strength of a warlord and was awarded a bronze medal!”
Sully’s voice was raised by a few octaves. His eyes glowed as if this was the greatest honor in his life.
More and more members of the Preston team surrounded him, making it impossible for him to escape.
When Steve Xavier arrived and saw that Heather Sage was also there, his expression changed slightly. He gave Logan Hall a meaningful glance, telling him to protect the girl and take her away quickly.
Heather was the fiancée of the Northern King. If anything happened to her, all the members of the Preston main team would have to die to atone for their sins.
Steve turned around and said, “Sully Cage, you used to be from the north. Do you know the eight ironclad laws of the northern territory?”
“Of course, I do. I know it better than you!” Sully’s eyes instantly turned red.
His eyes were bloodshot as he said in a hoarse voice, “Of course, I know the eight ironclad laws of the northern territory. Those are the rules set by the Northern King!
“First of all, the cold sword wielder shall not be stained with the blood of the innocent!
“Second, those who hold cold swords cannot point their blades at their comrades. Those who are stained with the blood of their comrades will be killed without mercy!”
…
“The eighth rule of the north is that the one who wields the cold sword should guard the beautiful mountains and rivers of Hansworth forever, resisting foreign enemies and guarding the borders. As a citizen of the north, you shall die as a soul of the northern territory. Your soul shall guard the gates of the northern territory, stand tall in Hansworth, and never betray Hansworth!
“I know the eight ironclad laws of the north better than you!
“I have never betrayed the northern territory ever in my life!”
At this moment, Sully was roaring like a wild beast. He had gone completely mad.
Steve and the rest should not have mentioned this. The memories of the northern army were what Sully wanted to protect the most. He could not allow anything to taint them.
Sully’s eyes were filled with tears of blood. “We can’t go back to the past. Don’t mention the northern territory, and don’t mention the north. Otherwise, I’ll kill all of you today. I was merciful earlier only because you had cold swords. Otherwise, I would have killed all of you on the first night!”
The sound of his heavy breathing proved that his emotions were fluctuating violently.
Whoosh!
With a flip of his hand, Sully wielded the sword and landed on a pine tree.
The five-meter-tall tree, which was as thick as an adult’s waist, fell to the ground with a loud crash. The blade was as smooth as a mirror, which was a shocking sight.
Sully’s eyes were cold, and his body was filled with a murderous aura. There were no mediocre martial artists from the northern territory.
There was no exaggeration in what he had said earlier.
If Steve and the others did not have the cold sword, Sully would have killed them all on the first night.
But he did not do that. Every time he saw cold sword, he would think of his brothers in the north.
At this moment, Heather was quickly pulled away by Logan. She suddenly turned around and shouted, “You were in the northern territory, so do you know Braydon Neal?”
“This is bad!” Steve’s expression changed, and he attacked Sully on the spot.
It was a pity that even though both of them were ninth level warriors, in facing Sully, he could not even withstand a single blow.
Sully’s saber slashed down, and the terrifying power caused Steve’s hand to split open. The sword in his hand flew out and was stuck in a tree.
Sully abandoned Xana and went toward Heather in the blink of an eye, pointing his sword at her throat.
“The Northern King’s name is taboo. Those who call him by his name will die!” Sully said hoarsely.
Everyone’s expression changed when they heard the last word.
No one understood Braydon’s position in the hearts of the northern army soldiers.
Anyone from the northern territory who joined the northern army would only have one faith in this life, and that was King Braydon!
That kind of terrifying force was beyond the imagination of outsiders.
Steve’s right arm trembled as he realized that what Sully had said was true. He was so powerful that he could kill all of them.
“Stop! Don’t touch her! Do you know who she is?” he roared.
“It’s not important to me anymore!” Sully knew that if he were to continue living, there would be no tomorrow. Therefore, there was no difference between those who had a background and those who did not.
“Her name is Heather Sage, the fiancée of the Northern King!” Steve said.
His words silenced the entire audience.
Lois Sears and the other students had long been scared listless.
Even Zion Levin and the others were shocked.
Sully was the only one who was stunned. He turned furious as he said, “Steve Xavier, you’re lying!”
“He didn’t lie to you. Braydon said that he will protect me for the rest of my life. If you are from the northern territory, you won’t hurt me. The people he wants to protect are the people the soldiers of north want to protect. The people in the northern army are all my family!”
Even though Sully was pointing his blade at Heather, she was not afraid at all.
Her heart was very calm because she felt that the cold sword would not hurt her.
Sully put away his blade and laughed out loud, tears rolling down from the corner of his eyes. Just based on Heather’s words, no matter if her identity was real or fake, Sully would not hurt her at all today.
The people of the northern army were all family!
But at this moment, a white-robed young man came from the west, stepping on flying leaves. His golden Qilin robe fluttered as the force he released pressed down on a towering tree.
Braydon had come with anger. After receiving Steve’s news, he set off from the Neal Corporation.
He had never thought that the soldiers of his northern army would hurt the people he wanted to protect.
If this matter were to spread out, it would definitely be a huge joke!
A thunderous voice boomed, “Is there anyone from the north here?”
His voice reverberated in the sky and rolled toward them. Before Braydon arrived, his voice had already sounded in their ears.
After this voice rang out, Heather said in surprise, “Stinky Braydon!”
“We’re saved!” Xana’s eyes lit up.
On a big tree, Braydon was standing with his hands behind his back, his golden Qilin robe dancing. His body exuded a terrifying pressure, and the surrounding grass bent, and the trees leaned back.
This was the Northern King!
“Greetings, Northern King!” Steve and the others cupped their hands. “All members of the Preston team pay their respects to the Northern King!”
“General!”
Sully looked at the tall and sturdy figure on the tree. Wasn’t that the most powerful king of the northern territory, Braydon Neal?
The commander of the northern army, a genius of a thousand years, the overlord of the world, King Braydon!
Sully sheathed his blade. No kneeling in the north. That was the rule!
He did not kneel down. He stood straight and shouted, “Northern army, second legion, sixth division, former soldier Sully Cage, pays his respects to the general!”
“Carden’s subordinate, do you know the eight ironclad laws of the northern territory?”
Braydon stepped on the air and landed on the ground.
