Chapter 62 Another Hidden Truth
“Kimmons, long time no see!” Roderick turned to Casey and spoke.
“Hello, Moreno, it’s been a while and you’ve got even better moves, not bad!”
“You flatter me, Kimmons. Compared to you, I got nothing special.”
With that, Roderick turned back to Billy and asked, “Sir, what should we do next?”
“That’s it. You don’t need to worry about what comes next. Just take your people and go back.” Billy waved his hand dismissively.
“Yes, sir.” Roderick saluted again before tentatively asking, “Commander, when will you have time in the next few days? I would like to pay you a visit.”
“Do you have something important?” Billy asked as he turned his head.
“No… nothing important. Just want to show some hospitality.” Roderick hesitated for a moment before responding.
“I’ll call you another day.” Billy said calmly after glancing at him with suspicion in his eyes. With his keen eyesight, he could see through somethings on Roderick’s mind.
“Okay.” Roderick nodded and walked away.
He didn’t need to worry about anything left behind because even if there were only one person from either Billy or Casey present, they would still be able handle any situation easily, not to mention the group of SHADOW here.
After Roderick’s men left, all of the Watkins family members knelt down trembling with fear and their faces drained of color, especially Osmond who had an expression of endless shock and despair on his face. He couldn’t understand why someone as important as Billy Gardner would come to avenge the murder of the Miles family. If he had known there was someone so powerful backing that family, he wouldn’t dare to mess with them.
The Watkins family was doomed today. And now his biggest regret now was calling his eldest son back. He had hoped that his son could handle all the trouble for the family, but now it seemed like he had pushed his own son into an abyss.
“Sir, sir… that thing years ago was done by me and my two brothers, it has nothing to do with any of the descendants of the Watkins family… We are willing to apologize with our lives… please spare them.” Osmond begged while trembling and knocking his head hard against the ground, leaving a deep cut on his forehead in no time.
Brian and Adam also knelt down and begged for mercy at once. “Commander, please spare our sons and daughters’ lives.” They pleaded.Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
“Do you remember what I said? I gave you a chance, but you just tossed it aside.” Billy said.
“I’m sorry, it’s my fault, please don’t kill our sons and daughters…” Osmond didn’t stop bumping his forehead on the ground while saying.
“Five years ago, when you destroyed the Miles family, many of them also begged for your mercy, right? But what happened? You killed everybody including those innocent cleaning ladies, no one was spared! You probably didn’t expect such a day at that time, huh?”
“I…” Osmond opened his mouth, but was speechless.
“Do you want to wipe us all out?” Coman gritted his teeth and stood up.
“You don’t seem too convinced.” Billy said calmly.
“Everyone talks about you like you’re some kind of god. I want to see for myself today!” Coman spoke up.
“Coman, what are you doing? Get down on your knees!” Osmond shouted in horror. He never imagined that his son would be so crazy as to challenge Billy like this.
“You’re just an idiot! What qualifies you to challenge the commander-in-chief? If you want a fight, I’ll accompany you. As long as you can hold out against me for one round, I’ll decide whether or not to spare your life!” Casey said flatly.
“That’s what you said. Don’t go back on your word!” Coman said as his eyes flashed with a glimmer of hope. Although he knew that Casey couldn’t defeat Billy, he was still an unattainable figure for him. But as a candidate for the position of the chief deacon of Buddha Hall, he had his own pride. He was under 30 years old and already had the cultivation level of a Battle Master. Thus, he didn’t believe that he couldn’t withstand one round from Casey if he went all out.
As the fight began, a strong momentum emanated from Coman and then he rushed towards Casey like a fierce beast. The first move was his strongest trump card, with a piercing sound of breaking wind echoed in the air.
“After you die, remember to apologize to those innocent people who you have harmed!” Casey said as he took two steps forward and threw a punch.
Bang!
The next moment, Coman who had just charged halfway exploded like a ripe watermelon. As the mist of blood disappeared in the air, there were only stains of blood left on the ground.
“Coman..”
Osmond let out a heart-wrenching cry and collapsed like a pile of mud.
“Do you have anything else to say?” Billy looked at him.
“As long as you release the other members of my family, I… I will tell you a secret.” Osmond knew that he couldn’t survive, but he wanted to keep the off-springs alive for the Watkins family.
“That depends on whether your so-called secret is worth risking the lives of the entire Watkins family!” Billy spoke coldly.
“In fact, there is another truth about things happen five years ago…”
“What does that mean?” asked Billy.
“We three families had indeed been wanting to take action against the Miles family, but we didn’t have too much confidence…” Osmond paused before continuing, “If someone hadn’t come to us first, we wouldn’t have acted so quickly. Including those who later targeted the Miles family, the two strongest individuals were sent by them.” Osmond explained.
Billy furrowed his brow at this revelation. He had never expected there to be a hidden aspect to that incident from five years ago. The memory of it resurfaced in his mind. There were indeed two individuals whose skills far surpassed everyone else. Among the Miles family’s martial artists, aside from his foster father, Luke Garrett was the second of the list, known as a Battle Master.
Back then, Luke was considered Ozin’s top martial artist due to his exceptional skills. However, he was heavily injured after only 10 rounds against one of their opponents. Looking back now, Luke’s opponent must have been at least in the advanced stages of a Battle Master. Apart from those two people, no one else among their enemies had reached beyond the level of a Novice Battle Master.
“Very few people know about this incident, even Harriet is unaware of it. Only I and the head of the Jimenez and Malcom families know that.” Osmond continued.
“Who were they?” Billy asked.
