Winner Takes All

Chapter 669 Punishment According to Military Law



It was extremely quiet as if the sound of a needle that dropped onto the ground could be heard.

The meeting hall was no longer as dignified as it was before.

After Zenith Harol said the words, the ambiance of the fierce fight was getting more serious.

Everyone felt bad as they wanted to say something but they couldn't.

The words 'Chief Guard' and 'Dragon Cavalry' and Archer Hughes who was directly pressed and smashed onto the table.

His military orders had to be strictly followed!

He ignored the Hughes family!

It was extremely domineering!

Zenith's tall and strong body had already pressured everyone in the meeting hall.

Madam Hughes's face looked pale as she angrily gritted her teeth as if flame could be seen in her eyes.

The other people who had power in the Hughes family were doing the same.

They felt angry but they couldn't say anything due to Zenith's strong pressure.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

The magnificent Hughes family was in a higher position compared to the others. They controlled all the wealth in the world.

Who would have thought that they would be pressured by an outsider until everyone didn't dare to make a sound like today?

Patrick Hughes stood in front of the seat of the head of the family. He had never felt this kind of pleasure before while looking at Archer who was grabbed by Zenith like a dead dog.

As the head of the Hughes family, he had to take responsibility for the glory of the head of the family.

In the past, if anyone dared to make trouble in the Hughes family, he would have already become furious and fought the person with the full power of the Hughes family.

Even if the person was the Killer God, Zenith, who had Dragon Cavalry that had three hundred thousand soldiers to back him up.

However, today Patrick didn't feel angry at all. Even the sullen look on his face was acted by him.

Otherwise, as the head of the family, if he still laughed when the Hughes family was challenged up until this point, wouldn't he be too fake?

He had been thinking all night but he still didn't find a way to save Jack.

Now, Zenith reached the Hughes family and directly solved the problem with his extremely strong power.

"Now, does anyone have any objections?"

Bang!

After Zenith said the words coldly, he let go of Archer who was in his right hand. Archer directly fell onto the ground.

The expressions of some people from the surrounding had changed and they wanted to help Archer after looking at his miserable look.

However, they looked serious as they glanced at Zenith. They felt frightened and stopped moving forward.

"Commander Harol ..."

Madam Hughes tried to suppress her anger and she clenched her teeth while saying the words through the gaps of her teeth, "Isn't the way of your speech and actions too domineering? Do you ever respect us, the Hughes family?"

The questions were asked in a cold tone and they were filled with anger.

She had been waiting for this rare opportunity for a long time. If it was interrupted by Zenith alone, would she... still have such an opportunity in the future?

She couldn't sleep and eat well if Jack didn't die!

However.

Zenith showed a disdainful and evil smile, "It would be a waste if a youngster didn't act domineeringly. Does Madam Hughes think that I am not qualified to act domineeringly?"

"..."

Madam Hughes's expression changed a lot. Before she said the words.

Zenith directly sat on the seat that Archer previously sat in front of everyone. He said with a deep voice, "If I, Zenith Harol, am not domineering, how could I attack a castle with a horse and a gun by myself? How could I sit on the wall of the foreign people's castle and look at Northern Territory while pressuring the foreign people?"

It was domineering. He gave everyone a stern look.

He had completely pressured everyone.

He had made Madam Hughes and the others speechless.

No one dared to act so domineeringly to the Hughes family.

Only the legend in front of them who led Dragon Cavalry that had more than three hundred thousand soldiers and made the unpenetrable and unbreakable Northern Territory!

He had the power and right to act domineeringly!

The atmosphere around was extremely serious and cold.

Zenith raised his hand and pointed at the Chief Guard Token that was nailed into the pillar, "This token is owned by Jack! I don't care if you, the Hughes family want to kill Jack. However, if you, the Hughes family, want to kill the Chief Guard who I, Zenith Harol, personally selected, I will care about the matter!"

"Today, I have to bring Jack away. If the Hughes family has any dissatisfaction, it is fine!"

"Either the Hughes family comes to the Northern Territory and discusses together with my Dragon Cavalry that has more than three hundred thousand soldiers. Or... I personally lead the Dragon Cavalry to come here to the Hughes family in order to discuss together with you all!"

The cold and domineering words were as loud as thunder.

It had made everyone from the Hughes family show a sullen face as they were frightened.

No one was stupid to treat it as a real discussion.

Zenith's words and actions since he came to the Hughes family didn't show any attitude to seek discussion.

He... was clearly threatening them!

He didn't hide any intention to threaten the Hughes family!

It was silent.

The tremendous murderous intention could be felt from Zenith's body as if sharp swords were placed on everyone's throat.

The person who was used to blood-bath. He was also the legendary Killing God!

Even though he was only sitting there, it was like he had everyone facing a pile of corpses and a sea of blood.

It was like if anyone dared to disobey him, he would make the place full of blood and corpses.

Jack quietly looked at Zenith. He held his fists tightly as his eyes seemed burning.

'So, this... was power!"

'If I had power, even the superior Hughes family could be easily taken down.'

'The strong power that could defeat everything... One day, I, Jack Hughes, would be the same!'

'My words and actions could pressure every member from the Hughes family so that no one would dare to be disloyal!'

However.

Madam Hughes still didn't want to give up. She angrily said with a deep voice, "Okay! Even though Jack is the Chief Guard of your Dragon Cavalry, Jack had killed the heir of the Hughes family here today. What would you do about it?"

"Dragon Cavalry that has more than three hundred thousand soldiers is indeed strong. You, Zenith, are also powerful and impressive to conquer the Northern Territory. However, every matter has to be done reasonably. If you want to pressure our Hughes family, even our Hughes family has to use all the wealth, we would take a proper fight with your Dragon Cavalry after we settle the grudges with Jack!"

"We, the Hughes family have been the strongest among the Wealthy Family and Noble family. We are still not afraid of your Dragon Cavalry that has three hundred thousand soldiers and you, Zenith Harol. Do you think that your army is that strong? Do you think you, Zenith Harol, could still defeat our Hughes family like how you defeated the foreign people?"

Boom!

The words were reasonable and full of confidence as if a heavy hammer was harshly smashed on everyone's heart.

Everyone was struck by lightning and their expression had changed a lot.

Madam Hughes was so determined and it had made everyone extremely shocked!

The Hughes family was indeed not afraid of Dragon Cavalry and Zenith.

However, everyone would determine the advantages and disadvantages before taking any action.

It was clear that the advantages were more than the disadvantages if they challenged Zenith.

To challenge Zenith head-on with the power of Hughes family merely for George Hughes.

It was not smart at all!

This was the main reason why the other members of the Hughes family who had power had been suppressing their anger.

Everyone had their plans in their minds secretly.

"Do you really want to kill me at any cost? Old woman, what am I, Jack Hughes, capable of?"

Jack looked at the determined Madam Hughes. He laughed coldly in his heart but he was also confused.

Suddenly.

A deep voice sounded.

"Commander Harol, I as the head of the family, should deal with this matter. My third mother was right. The success that our Hughes family has today is achieved because of our power. We are not easily scared by the others."

Patrick showed a sullen face while staring at Zenith, "If we couldn't settle the grudges of someone had died like today because of you, wouldn't everyone think that people from the Hughes family could simply be killed as they wish in the future?"

After Patrick said the words, everyone was shocked as they looked at Patrick.

'Old Master... had he changed his mind?'

Even Jack was shocked. He showed a deep look when he looked at Patrick. Then, he knew what Patrick was doing.

He showed a smile.

'Threatening Zenith while comforting the other members from the Hughes family?'

'Dad actually had a good plan!'

Without waiting for Zenith to speak, Patrick said again, "Those who had committed a crime had to be punished. Jack is the Chief Guard that you, Commander Harol, had personally selected. We believe in you. However, the fact that Jack is the Chief Guard is not a reason that you could help Jack to get away from killing the heir of the Hughes family. If you are not even prepared to let Jack pay the price, then today we, the Hughes family would definitely not agree with Commander Harol and we would fight with you like what my third mother said!"

Boom!

Everyone was suddenly stunned.

'Old Master... really wanted to kill his own son?'

Even Madam Hughes looked at Patrick with a shocked look.

Everything happened too quickly. It was so quick that everyone couldn't react immediately like Jack.

However, after Zenith said the words, everyone immediately came back to their senses.

Zenith gently laughed, "Mr. Hughes is right, I will definitely punish him. Jack is the Chief Guard of my Dragon Cavalry. Then, he would be punished according to the military law of my Dragon Cavalry. He would be flogged for twenty times!"☐☐☐☐
