eyes
Speaking of which, Southeast Overlord’s imagination was quite impressive. When Southwest Overlord
heard Southeast Overlord’s words, he rolled his and said, “Do you think that with Eldest Brother’s
strength and the few commanders under him, even if they joined forces, could they get to hurt him?
“Moreover, it’s not like you don’t know what Eldest Brother has done to his subordinates.
“He knew everything about what those commanders had done, whether it was about what they ate at
home at night, how many women they slept with, and what disgusting words they had said.
“If these commanders had discussed and joined forces to harm Eldest Brother, I’m afraid he would
have known in advance!”
When Southeast Overlord heard what Southwest Overlord said, his face revealed. an awkward
expression.
Then, he nodded and said, “Indeed. You’re right. Then… did Eldest Brother really go berserk and die of
explosion?”
Now, in Southeast Overlord’s opinion, this was the only possibility that could explain Southland
Overlord’s death.
However, at this moment, Southwest Overlord had a serious expression on his face.
His eyes flickered with an intriguing light as he said in a low voice, “I’m afraid… Eldest Brother was
killed by someone in his mansion!”
“What?”
When Southeast Overlord heard Southwest Overlord’s voice, his expression clearly showed a hint of
shock.
Then, he hurriedly said, “How is that possible?
“Eldest Brother’s mansion was so heavily guarded. Moreover, the commanders under him all said that
they didn’t see any murderer at all. They didn’t even find anything when they locked down the city to
search!”
“Humph!” Southwest Overlord snorted and then said loudly, “Those people are just a bunch of trash!
“The one who could really kill Eldest Brother is such a powerful top expert! If such a top expert decided
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtto assassinate him, how could those useless people discover them?”
“You’re right, Second Brother! Southeast Overlord nodded in agreement after bearing what Southwest
Overlord said.
However, Southwest Overlord did not stop.
He continued, “You know what? Not long after the useless Southland Army spread the news of Eldest
Brother’s death, two battalions of my Southwest Army were wiped out in my West Blue!”
“What?”
Hearing Southwest Overlord’s words, Southeast Overlord exclaimed again and subconsciously said,
“Are you talking about the West Blue at the border of your territory with Eldest Brother’s? The one right
beside Eldest Brother’s Zenor Town?”
Southwest Overlord nodded slowly with a deep gaze.
Hiss!
Southeast Overlord gasped hard.
The geographical location of West Blue was quite incredible because it was right. next to Zenor Town.
In other words, their eldest brother, Southland Overlord, had just been killed in the Southland Mansion
in Zenor Town right before two battalions of Southwest Overlord’s Southwest Army were wiped out in
West Blue.
Southeast Overlord couldn’t help but connect the two events that had happened one after another.
At this moment, Southwest Overlord slowly said hesitantly, “I feel that this person is not only targeting
Eldest Brother but also me.
“This… This top expert is probably targeting the war general as well!”
“Who on earth would dare to target the war general?”
When Southeast Overlord spoke to Southwest Overlord, his face was quite pale. There was some
hesitation in his eyes as he let out the shock in his heart.
Southwest Overlord slowly shook his head.
He did not know who had the guts to target Blearus’s Riverrun General. Wasn’t that person courting
death by doing so?
There was a hint of hesitation in Southeast Overlord’s eyes.
Then, as if he had thought of something, he slowly said, “Second Brother, do you still remember…
“The last time we went to Eldest Brother’s mansion, he told us that Gavin Clifford from the Clifford
family in Brookspring had returned. Wasn’t our last gathering interrupted by the news of Southland
Army’s extermination?”
When Southwest Overlord heard what Southeast Overlord said, a strange expression appeared on his
face.
“Are you saying that the person who killed Eldest Brother and destroyed two of my battalions of the
Southwest Army is Gavin Clifford?”
Southeast Overlord looked at Southwest Overlord and did not say anything He
did not confirm or deny Southwest Overlord’s assumption.
However, a sneer appeared on Southwest Overlord’s face.
He waved his hand and said loudly, “It can’t be. How could he be so capable of achieving that?”
His words showed his obvious contempt and disdain against Gavin.
The sneer on Southwest Overlord’s face did not subside when he said, “It’s not like you don’t know the
young master of the Clifford family in Brookspring. He’s talented in martial arts and joined Frostpeak
Dark Warriors. But don’t forget that ten years ago, during the Sunspire Resistance, the Thirty-Power
Allied Forces and the Frostpeak Dark Warriors perished together!
“Even if Gavin has some extraordinary ability, do you think he could survive in the Sunspire
Resistance?”
Fortunately, Gavin was not present.
If he were present and heard Southwest Overlord’s analysis, he probably wouldn’t bother to argue with
him.
Southwest Overlord didn’t stop as he continued, “Even if this Gavin Clifford was lucky enough to
survive the Sunspire Resistance or became a deserter, how old would he be now? He would be merely
in his twenties this year, right?
“Why would you think a brat like him, who is so young, could be Eldest Brother’s match?”
“In Eldest Brother’s eyes, such an irrelevant person would just be a nobody. He could crush Gavin
Clifford with a simple move!
“How dare this piece of trash target the great war general?”
Southwest Overlord was babbling on and on.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIn short, he looked down on Gavin completely. He did not even believe that Gavin was still alive.
He believed that Southland Overlord’s death and the annihilation of his two battalions of warriors were
definitely not done by Gavin.
Southeast Overlord, who had made this suggestion, nodded in agreement after hearing Southwest
Overlord’s words.
“You’re right, Second Brother.
“Let’s not talk about whether Gavin Clifford is still alive or not. Even if he’s still alive, how would he dare
to go against Eldest Brother, let alone the mighty war general?
“Who else could have done it?”
After Southeast Overlord said this, the two of them fell into silence.
They both wondered, ‘Yeah!
“Who else could have done it?
‘Which top expert in this world would go against Riverrun General?’
The two of them racked their brains but could not think of an answer.
Meanwhile, Southwest Overlord shook his head and said, “No matter who this person is, the two of us
can’t afford to offend them!”
When he said this, there was a cautious and nervous expression on Southwest Overlord’s face.
Southeast Overlord gave another heavy nod.
Indeed, the strength of the two of them alone was not even comparable to Southland Overlord.
That person had even killed their eldest brother. Killing them was as easy as flipping his hand. It was
very normal for them to feel afraid at this moment.
If they knew that the person they feared now was Gavin, whom they had mocked for a long time, what
kind of expression would they have?
At this moment, Southwest Overlord said, “I think that the war general needs to take action to deal with
that figure!
“How about this? We’ll send our subordinates to secretly investigate this matter. We’ll tell everyone that
Eldest Brother died of self-explosion.
“Then, we will find a way to contact the mighty war general and see if we can contact him. After all, he
will call the shots when it comes to this matter!”
Southeast Overlord nodded heavily. “You’re right, Second Brother!”
