Chapter 290 Dealing With Some Matters

Chapter 290 Dealing with Some Matters

At this point, even Zelene Frazier, as clueless as she might be, had guessed Billy's identity. Based on the information she possessed, among SHADOW's several governors, the strongest in combat was Azure Fang in the central region, but he was only at the late-stage Warlord level. However, the strength Billy had displayed was at least at the War Grandmaster level or higher. Within all of SHADOW, except for the SHADOW Master, who else could possess such strength?

With trembling and a terrified expression on her face, she realized the gravity of the situation. Regret surged within her. If she had known Commander Gardner was in Shenford, she wouldn't have come, even if given ten times the courage. She had truly walked into her own demise.

Hearing her words, the core members of the Watts family all collapsed, similarly shaking and filled with fear.

The Watts family was utterly doomed.

"Do you know why SHADOW came to the Watts family?" Billy asked Zelene Frazier, ignoring the pleas of the Watts family members. "Did Hubert Watts tell you the reasons?"

As he spoke, a majestic and overwhelming pressure emanated from him, shrouding everyone present. Under such a powerful pressure, everyone, including Zelene Frazier, felt as if a moutain was pressing down on them.

"I... I..." Zelene shuddered, her eyes revealing panic.

"From your expression, it seems you already knew that they had conspired with Yin Void Sect, or perhaps you were the ones who instigated it?" Billy continued, his gaze narrowing.

"No... it's not like that," Zelene Frazier stammered. "We of the Frazier family did not know about this."

"Miss Frazier..." Upon hearing her words, Hubert immediately spoke up. He knew that Zelene Frazier was completely abandoning the Watts family.

"If you utter another word, I'll annihilate your entire family!" Zelene Frazier gritted her teeth.

Hubert Watts shut his mouth since he believed that Zelene Frazier's words were not an empty threat.

"Are you treating me like a three-year-old child?" Billy looked at Zelene Frazier, his voice calm.

"I... We only heard about the Watts family being associated with Yin Void Sect, but we definitely did not instigate this. It's not something we pushed for." Zelene Frazier stammered, trembling as she spoke. She dared not admit to any involvement because acknowledging it would be a grave offense. Yin Void Sect had been classified as a heretical cult a decade ago, and if the Frazier family was implicated in any way, they would face severe consequences, provoking public outrage.

"Since you've learned about the Watts family's collusion with Yin Void Sect, why did you come to Shenford to obstruct SHADOW's investigation? Who gave you the audacity?" Billy's tone grew colder.

"I'm sorry... I was wrong... Please forgive me this time, I won't dare again..." Zelene hurriedly begged for mercy.

"I asked you a question earlier. Your family's young heiress should be Violet Frazier, right? Since when did it become your turn?" Billy inquired.

"My... my cousin..." Zelene Frazier stammered.

"Tell me!"

"My uncle was already stripped of his position as the family head, so my cousin..."

Billy's imposing aura intensified as he spoke in a cold tone, "So, where are they now?"

"They are still in the Frazier estate, but they've been expelled from the core ranks of the family and demoted to secondary status."

"You're doing so good." Billy's expression turned stern, and with a swift motion, he sent a powerful gust of wind that threw Zelene Frazier off her feet.

Zelene coughed up a mouthful of blood after landing, and when she regained her composure, her voice trembled as she exclaimed, "You... you've crippled my cultivation!"

She could clearly feel that she could now only muster the strength of a Battle Master. With seething anger welling up inside her, all the years of hard work and effort had been undone in an instant. NôvelDrama.Org content.

"If it weren't for your youthful ignorance, you'd be dead right now!" Billy responded icily. "This is the first and last time. If I catch wind of any more of your wrongdoing or abuse of power, your life is forfeit!"

He continued, his tone still cold, "Now, get lost!"

Zelene Frazier let out a deep breath and slowly got up from the ground, not uttering another word as she walked toward the estate's entrance. As she turned away, her eyes gleamed with resentment. She couldn't swallow this humiliation.

With a thud, once Zelene Frazier had left, Hubert Watts stumbled over to Billy and knelt before him.

"Please, Commander Gardner, spare the Watts family. I beg you, we won't dare to defy SHADOW again." He pleaded, his voice desperate.

"Please, Commander Gardner, have mercy!" The other core members of the Watts family joined in, all on their knees, loudly begging for leniency.

Ignoring their pleas, Billy turned and walked toward the estate's entrance.

"Azure Fang, follow my orders!" Billy commanded without paying any attention to them.

"I'm listening, Commander!" Azure Fang responded loudly.

"Execute the head of the Watts family!" Billy ordered as he walked. "Investigate the others thoroughly, and if any wrongdoing is found, punish them accordingly!"

"Yes, Commander!" Azure Fang nodded firmly.

"No, please!" Hubert cried out in despair.

With a swift motion, Azure Fang swung his blade, and Hubert's head soared into the air. Thus, the Watts family was officially expelled from Shenford.

An hour later, they returned to SHADOW's base.

"Boss, should we head to the capital?" Azure Fang asked. He understood the pain Billy was feeling.

"Yes," Billy replied after a moment of contemplation. "You handle things here. Three days from now, go to the capital with me."

Some matters had to be dealt with, even if Billy didn't want to revisit his past. The mastermind behind the massacre of his foster family remained unpunished. Originally, he hadn't planned to address this matter so soon, but the information he had obtained from Zelene Frazier today had

forced his hand. The Frazier family was the one that had hired Ink Pavilion to eliminate his foster family.

After learning from Lady Peony that one of the noble families in the capital was responsible for the massacre of his foster family, Billy had initially intended to confront them during his last visit. However, due to the commotion caused by the Leonard family, he had postponed that plan.

Now, the time had come.

In his mind, he couldn't help but picture the youthful and beautiful figure of Violet Frazier. He wondered how she was faring now.

"Yes, Commander! But should I inform Judge and the others?" asked Azure Fang.

"No," Billy shook his head. "It's personal. Just you and Night Orchid will go with me."

"Yes." Azure Fang nodded once more.
