Chapter 662 Defiant

“Maybe it’s easier to discuss our matters this way?” Stellario pulled out a dagger from his pocket and stuck it in the fireplace before Karl. The way Stellario did it was so easy that it was as if he was slicing butter.

The most impressive thing was that an iciness surrounding the dagger immediately made the flame in the fireplace smaller. The temperature in the room dropped. Karl frowned at the dagger. “What is the meaning of all this, Captain Mallory?”

“It’s simple. Choose one. Either you work with me, or I will end you now. Come on. Pick your fate.” Stellario chuckled as he gazed at Karl.

Karl sneered, “Are you trying to hurt me at my military camp?” He turned around to look at Kathleen and Winston. “Are you guys in the cahoots with him?”

Kathleen blew out a puff of smoke slowly without speaking, while Winston stood up and bowed before Karl. He said, “Commander… I-I’ve never come face-to-face with a high-ranking officer like you. Please don’t mind me. I’m going to say something off-topic now.”

Karl took in Winston’s apologetic look. Absurd! He is a highly skilled person in the advanced phase of God Realm. Yet, he looked no less different from an old farmer who had made his way into the city for the first time. Even though he can easily change the course of the world, he looks like a coward. This is the definition of playing dumb. Winston is not a man to look down upon.

He nodded. “Please speak, Sir.”

Winston crossed his arms in front of his chest before putting his hands into the sleeves. “Okay, then. Here’s the thing. The eight respectable families do not suffer from poverty but from inequality. Even though we shared some common interests by being this way and being in the same boat, we have a competitive relationship. We’ve tried to get those kids with cultivation on our side previously. We want those exceptional rogue cultivators too. However, some people don’t like being a part of the eight respectable families.

“What we do about that, then? To prevent people like you from joining other respectable families and proving to be a threat to us in the future, we would mostly kill these rebellious people to ensure they wouldn’t cause us any trouble. Of course, I don’t mean I have to kill you. I’m just telling you the story behind this.”
