Chapter 1176: Settling Accounts (Part One)
[TL Note: This is a three-parter.]
"It seems like your memory isn"t good." Fei finally spoke. While looking at Horton whose expression was changing, Fei repeated what he said before, "Of course, your dear little brother Elton captured me and took me here."
Fei"s words made Horton and these supreme masters want to kill Elton.
"There are so many people for you to offend. Why did you pick on the Human Emperor of the North? Do you want to die?"
At this moment, these supreme masters all forgot that when Elton had gotten "good stuff", they all came and enjoyed themselves.
Although these people were supreme masters, they already lost their honor and dignity during the Chaos Era. Just like Elton and Horton, they sat on the fence and did things that benefited themselves instead of sticking to their principles. They were greedy and l.u.s.tful, not good people in their cores.
Of course, even though they were greedy and l.u.s.tful, it didn"t mean that they were foolish.
In fact, at this point, everyone knew what was going on. These supreme masters realized that this was a trap that the Human Emperor of the North set up. Otherwise, how could a weak person like Elton be able to capture and take a G.o.dly king to the Green Stone Palace?
However, even though this was the case, they couldn"t say anything to get out of this situation.
"I sincerely apologize to Your Majesty! I didn"t know that the honorable Human Emperor of the North got here, so my words were a bit rude. As the saying goes, the people who don"t know aren"t guilty of intent. Your Majesty is honorable, kind, and generous. I believe that you won"t be that strict with us, right?" Horton said with a sincere expression. He first praised Fei of being kind and generous, trying to use words to force Fei to let this incident go.
Fei laughed and looked at Horton as if he was a cat playing with a mouse. He replied, "What if I want to be picky and won"t let this go?"
"This…" Horton opened his mouth and stuttered, and cold sweat appeared on his face. He said with an awkward tone, "Your Majesty, your jokes are funny."
"Who the fck has time to joke with a bstard like you?" The smile on Fei"s face suddenly disappeared, and he stood up and looked down at Horton as he shouted, "I"m here to take down human sc.u.m like you!"
Horton"s head started to buzz, and a streak of hot blood shot into his mind uncontrollably. He was about to explode in rage!
"This is too much! He is stepping over the line too much!"
"When have I, Horton, ever been insulted like this in the City of Iduna?"
These thoughts flashed in Horton"s mind.
"Humph! Alexander! Since you don"t want our respect and instead want to be hostile, I won"t be kind anymore! I didn"t know about this before, and I wasn"t involved. You can only take away Elton! What can you do to me?" Horton also flipped out.
"Who would want to use reason and argue with a human sc.u.m like you?" Fei sneered, "I want to kill you, so you have to die."
"You… don"t step over the line!" Horton shouted back in anger.
Horton had something to rely on. Although he was afraid, he wasn"t desperate. He sneered and replied, "Your Northern Region Empire sure is ambitious. You are only here in the City of Iduna for a few days, yet you are killing the credited people who helped with the defense of the city and trying to take this city for yourself!"

"Yeah! This is bullying!"
"We have earned a lot of merits! We bled in the battles with the goblin military!"
"The City of Iduna belongs to the people of the Southern Region! The barbarians from the Northern Region, get out! We don"t need your involvement!"
"Humph! Gotze, if you sit back and watch the Human Emperor of the North kill us today, the same thing will happen to you tomorrow!"
"The Human Emperor of the North is ambitious! He will kill you all and take over the City of Iduna!"
Under Horton"s secret instruction, the supreme masters who were taken down all started to shout and add to the mess, trying to create conflict between the Northern Region and the Southern Region. They were all on the same side, and they knew that the Human Emperor of the North already saw them as enemies.
Such action was useful.
The dozens of supreme masters who came with Gotze didn"t say anything, but doubts appeared in their heads.
After all, the situation that was described occurred on the Azeroth Continent frequently.
Fei laughed and said, "You are on the verge of death, yet you are still fighting back like beasts. Alright, before you die, I will clarify everything and prove your crimes! Come!" Fei clapped his hands as he spoke.
In the next moment, a group of people slowly walked into the palace.
They were the people of the Southern Region who resided in the city.
There were hundreds of them. They were of various ages, and there were both males and females. However, they all had one thing in common; they all had injuries all over their bodies while they looked dispirited.
When these people entered the palace, they saw [Crazy-Wild Boar] Elton who was still pretending to be dead, and they all gritted their teeth with hatred in their eyes. If the soldiers of the Northern Region Empire didn"t stop them, they would have rushed over and skinned this fatty.
"You guys may speak. Regardless of what kinds of injustice you suffered, you can speak on it, and we will restore justice today," an official of the Northern Region Empire said kindly.
It was clear that these hundreds of people who came here today completely disregarded their own lives. Although Horton and others stared at them ferociously, they showed no signs of fear.
These people told everyone about their tragic experiences and how Fatty Elton tortured them. Some of the things were so vicious and cruel that even some of the supreme masters felt chills running up their spines.
These hundreds of people each stated their cases. In the end, they all had b.l.o.o.d.y tears in their eyes, and they either pointed at the sky and cursed while grinding their teeth or cried, hammered their chests, and stomped their feet.
Both Princess Victoria and Jean were happy and cheerful people, but they cried alongside these hundreds of people in the end after hearing the stories.
Only Horton and his henchmen still looked the same, appearing cold-blooded. After these poor people told their stories, Horton sneered and said, "With all that said, it is Elton who committed these evil deeds. What does it have to do with us? Besides, they are a bunch of lowly civilians!"
"Doesn"t have to do with all of you? Then, let"s talk about the things that involve you," Fei sneered and clapped his hands again.
Another group of people walked into the palace through the gate.

Chapter 1176: Settling Accounts (Part Three)
There were n.o.bles, guards, and military officers, and they were all people of the Southern Region. It seemed like they all got beaten, and bruises could be seen on their bodies. They were all in magic handcuffs, and those people who followed Elton and committed evil deeds with him were in this group.
There were some henchmen who followed Horton, and there were some subordinates and trusted people of the supreme masters who were taken down by Elena earlier.
With frightened expressions, these people staggered as they walked into the palace under the escort of the warriors of the Northern Region Empire.
Horton and others" expressions changed at this moment.
"You… you dared to arrest our people without consulting us? This is outrageous!" Horton shouted, feeling a little anxious and uneasy.
"Why are you impatient already?" Fei only glanced over, yet Horton and his henchmen paled and didn"t dare to move as if they were severely injured.
Seeing this, some of the arrested guards and henchmen who were still having other thoughts instantly became honest. They all told Fei everything that they knew as if someone was pouring dry beans out of a smooth bottle.
Everything that these people said pointed toward Horton. It was clear that Elton was only someone on the surface, and Horton and the supreme masters on his side were the true perpetrators of the worst evil deeds. Otherwise, how would Elton, a little Star-Level Warrior, dare to act so overbearingly in the City of Iduna?
Of course, this was only the appetizer.
More importantly, these guards and trusted people revealed that in order to obtain more benefits and have more say in the important matters, these supreme masters set up traps to wipe out allied forces, making the humans of the Southern Region lose on the battlefield again and again. Many loyal and brave soldiers and warriors were lost along the way, and the human forces in the area couldn"t help but retreat all the way back to the City of Iduna.
Due to their own selfishness, numerous humans died under the blades of the goblins!
This was a huge scandal!
It was a huge crime! It was anti-human!
The supreme masters beside Gotze all shivered in anger.
"Kill them!"
"Skin these b*stards alive!"
While these supreme masters shouted emotionally, they surrounded Horton and his henchmen.
"We are framed! They are… they are trying to fool all of you…" Horton roared with a pale face.
"Framed? Those people who spoke are all your men!" Gotze sneered. In fact, he was also shocked by the energy that the Human Emperor of the North showcased. The Northern Region Empire captured so many henchmen and trusted people of Horton and others on his side. It was also Gotze"s first time knowing that some of them were on Horton"s side; their acting was great!
"Who knew what kind of evil spell that the Human Emperor of the North cast on them… they must have been threatened into saying these things…" Horton tried to explain and resist until the last second.
Without thinking, Fei pointed at the weak people who came in first and said with a smile, "I have explained everything to you. Now, let"s start settling these accounts. You have to pay for their sufferings first."
Seeing that talking was useless, Horton shut his mouth. He had something to rely on, and he already sent out the secret message. Therefore, he became tough and reckless as he sneered, "They are only a bunch of ants. If I kill them, my hands would be stained. Human Emperor of the North, are you really naïve enough to side with these ants?"
