Zeke untied the ropes around Nancy. “You okay?”
Nancy sucked in a sharp breath and exclaimed, “Zeke... You... were so cool!”
She could not find a better way to describe him after what he had just done.
Zeke’s eyes fell on Ryker again.
Ryker was utterly petrified by now.
His gaze was fixed on Wolf’s Greed.
General Cosmopolis!
Isn’t this f******General Cosmopolis?
Why has he come to a remote area like this?
Did he really need to come personally to deal with a bunch of petty bandits?
Isn’t he overqualified for the job?
Ryker’s fell to his knees before Wolf’s Greed.
“General Cosmopolis, why... Why have you come?”
“I have failed as a soldier if you felt the need to come personally to deal with some petty bandits, General
Cosmopolis.”

Wolf’s Greed coldly spat out, “Hah! Ryker Lewis, you’re really something, aren’t you?”
“You ordered soldiers to pose as bandits to kidnap a civilian. You’re a disgrace to the military!”
Ryker tried to defend himself by saying, “General, I don’t know them at all, so how could I possibly have ordered
them to post as bandits?”
“Look. I was even shot by them.”
Wolf’s Greed spat, “You may be able to fool others through this pity ploy of yours, but you won’t fool me!”
“I...” Ryker did not know how to get himself out of this mess.
Wolf’s Greed and the other three walked towards Zeke, before they soon got down on one knee.
“Head of the Provincial Military District, Lone Wolf.”
“General Cosmopolis, Wolf’s Greed.”
“General North, Sole Wolf.”
“Drake from Northern Xinjiang, Serpent.”
“Here to report to the Great Marshal. The bandits have been eliminated, and the culprit has been apprehended!”
“Good.” Zeke calmly nodded, sweeping a glance towards Ryker.
Boom!
Ryker’s whole body froze up, and he felt as though he had been plunged into ice-cold water.
The Great Marshal!
Zeke Williams is the renowned Great Marshal!
No wonder he could wipe out the four major families in Atheville with such ease!
No wonder he isn’t afraid of the Williams family or the Lewis family at all!
No wonder Theodore Luna saw him as a threat!
It’s all because he’s the Great Marshal!
He bends the law as he wishes, and reigns above the authorities!
F***! How could Theodore Luna send an opponent like him towards us!
We had actually sought to destroy the Great Marshal... How stupid!
This is the joke of the century!
Thud!
Ryker’s body went limp, and he fell forward, with his hands supporting his body.
Zeke looked down his nose at him. “Ryker Lewis, what else do you have to say now?”
Ryker had run out of excuses, so he lowered his head to the ground in a kowtow.

With a look of despair on his face, he begged, “Great Marshal, I... I committed an unforgivable sin. I’m willing to end
my own life.”
“I only ask that you spare the Lewis family. I, Ryker Lewis, will be eternally grateful for that.”
Zeke pressed his lips into a thin line. “The Lewis family has challenged the Great Marshal, yet they ask to be
spared? How absurd.”
Ryker suddenly thought of something and quickly suggested, “Great Marshal, please allow me to make amends.”
“I have very important news for you. I hope that you’ll accept it as compensation, sparing the Lewis family.”
“Speak,” Zeke ordered.
Ryker did not need any more encouragement, as he instantly answered Zeke, “Your grandmother, Mdm. Williams,
has also followed me to Rivermouth. She has probably gone to Linton Group to cause trouble.”
He gulped before continuing, “So, you... You better hurry to Linton Group. She may be a threat to the safety of your
family!”
D*** it!
Zeke’s eyes turned murderous.
That old lady is f******stubborn!
Zeke suppressed his rage and growled, “Carry out your own sentence.”
“Great Marshal, can you let me talk to my family one last time?” Ryker pleaded.
