Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
He killed Lavell Simpson with a single spear strike. It was clean and efficient, without any hesitation.
That was how Braydon Neal did things.
Once he started killing, no one in the world could stop him.
Braydon placed his right hand behind his back and slowly pulled out his silver spear with his left hand. He ignored Lavell’s corpse and pointed his spear at Forrest Gray, Ferran Kirby, and the others. “Submit or die?”
He let the five of them choose for themselves.
This was the last chance for Forrest and the others to survive.
The five of them had no right to negotiate!
If they surrendered to the Northern Army unconditionally, they would be able to survive.
Otherwise, this day next year would be their death anniversary.
The five of them looked at each other. In the face of life and death, it was the most testing of human nature.
Forrest and the others were all geniuses with lofty pride. They still had a long road ahead of them.
They did not want to die here before they reached the peak of martial arts.
If they compromised today, they could live.
Forrest was the first to do so. He cupped his fists and knelt on one knee. He lowered his head and said hoa.r.s.ely, “Pinnacle Forrest Gray greets the commander!”
“Pinnacle Ferran Kirby greets the commander!”
The second person also submitted.
If there was one, there would be two. Once someone submitted, it would not be so difficult for others to accept it.
The third black-robed young man had a cold expression. He carried a black sword on his back. The sword had not been unsheathed and had been hidden for decades. Now that he had appeared, he had to submit before he could even fight with the most dazzling prodigy of Hansworth.
He knelt on one knee and shouted, “Pinnacle Salvadore Carden greets the commander!”
“Peak Chance Yanes greets the commander!”
The fourth person followed closely behind, cupping his fists and Imeeling on one knee.
Of the seven sons of the powerful families, one had died, and five out of the remaining six had submitted to Braydon.
There was only one person left!
Kaia Zajac from the Zajac family!
She was a pinnacle martial artist who was disguised as a man, although she was a woman, she had already reached the pinnacle realm. She bit her thin lips, unwilling to yield to Braydon.
Swoosh!
Ninety-six meters away, Braydon held the Soul-Shaking Spear in his left hand and pierce through the air.
Kaia was unwilling to submit to the Northern Army.
Then… she would be killed!
If a pinnacle genius was not used by him, he would be killed without mercy.
To Braydon, killing the seven sons of the powerful families was much easier than subduing them.
The silver spear had arrived, revealing a cold light.
“Pinnacle Kaia Zajac greets the commander!” A neutral voice shouted.
Kaia, the last of the seven children of the powerful families, cupped her fists and knelt on one knee. Her face was pale and bloodless.
The Soul-Shaking Spear in Braydon’s left hand was only three inches away from her forehead!
If Kaia was half a second slower, blood would have stained the sky.
The other six people all submitted to the Northern Army.
The seven powerful families behind them would never have thought that the prodigies they had nurtured with all their resources would end up as someone else’s puppet.
Ever since Braydon was born, he had been suppressing the powerful families.
The six pinnacle martial artists all knelt on one knee.
Braydon stabbed the Soul-Shaking Spear into the ground. Bang!
The spear pierced into the ground and stood straight.
Wylder Flitwick and the others’ eyelids twitched.
Braydon clasped his hands behind his back and said calmly, “Stand up and speak. There is no kneeling in the Northern Army!” “May I know what arrangements the commander has for us?”
Salvadore stared at Braydon, his heart filled with worry.
Braydon glanced at him and thought of Luther Carden who was far away in the northern territory. He said softly, “Is Luther your cousin or nephew?”
“According to seniority, I’m his granduncle!” It was the truth.
“b.a.s.t.a.r.d!” Maddox Johnstone said angrily.
Second Master Carden of the Northern Army was the second most important person in the Northern Army, the leader of the hidden agents.
Maddox left the Northern Army because of Luther’s orders.
Thus, he was extremely dissatisfied with Salvadore’s words.
Salvadore ignored Maddox and voiced his worries. He said in a low voice, “Today, I’ve submitted to the commander. I have already lowered my head and will never betray the Northern Army!
“In the future, if the Northern Army insists on exterminating all the powerful families, they will be able to sweep across the world under your command, far surpa.s.sing the Martial Emperor Yanagi of the past.
“If I enter the Northern Army, I will be able to preserve the last bloodline of the Carden family!”
Salvadore hadn’t finished speaking. “It is true that I have submitted to the Northern Army, but if the commander wants me to be a hidden agent and provide the Northern Army with all the core secrets of the Carden family, I will spill my blood here today!”
After saying that.
Salvadore raised his hand and took up Lavell’s blade.
He held the sword horizontally in front of his neck.
Salvadore submitting to the Northern Army was already considered betraying his family.
He would never provide the Northern Army with the core secrets of the Carden family.
He was willing to die!
Forrest and Wylder looked at each other and saw the determination in each other’s eyes.
If Braydon really wanted them to do this…
It would be really shameless of them. They might as well die instead. The six of them pressed on, their eyes revealing their determination to die.
“The Northern King will not be threatened!” Braydon said softly with his hands behind his back.
Salvadore’s fingers trembled as he grasped the blade. He faintly understood Braydon’s meaning. He smiled desolately as he recalled the past.
He had been cultivating since he was young and had reached the pinnacle realm.
His name was supposed to be one that was famous throughout Hansworth, but he never thought that he would end up committing suicide.
Salvadore slowly closed his eyes.
Braydon’s voice rang out in his ears, “If you join me, you will be born a northern territory citizen and die a Northern Army soul. This is a mark that will never be washed away!”
Xuan opened his eyes and looked at the Qilin youth.
Braydon raised his left hand and removed the sword from his neck. He said softly, “Don’t underestimate the Northern Army. Luther can even get the list of six candidates for the t.i.tle conferment ceremony on Mount Tanish, let alone the schemes of the various families!”
Salvadore and the others were speechless.
The Northern Army’s hidden agents were far more terrifying than anyone could imagine.
Forrest and the others had been hidden by the powerful families since they were young.
It was definitely a core secret of the powerful families!
In the end, all these years, they had always been on the list of people who were under the Northern Army’s surveillance.
As long as Braydon wanted to see the secrets of each family, he could turn around and look them up in the secret database of the Northern Army.
As long as Braydon revealed his ident.i.ty, he could see the top secrets in the capital and the Northern Army’s secret database.
Immediately after.
“From today onward, the ident.i.ties of the six of you will be cla.s.sified as an S-level secret of the Northern Army, and you will be hidden agents!” Braydon said softly.
“Yes, sir!”
Wylder and the others had no choice but to lower their heads.
But this was not the end!
Braydon didn’t trust them completely. He said softly with his hands behind his back, “There’s still one more thing between us!”
“What is it?”
Salvadore had a bad feeling.
“I want to take something from you,” Braydon said softly. “The Carden family’s Ape Strike Technique, the Kirby family’s sword manual, the Gray family’s blood coagulation technique, and the Yanes family’s secret smithing technique!”
“What?!”
Everyone was shocked!
What Braydon wanted was the foundation of the six powerful families.
That had been the foundation of the family’s inheritance for hundreds of years!
The core ancient martial techniques of the family were pa.s.sed down to the elders and not to the young..
