These people had come with actual, seemingly dangerous weapons. There were quite a few of them
as well, thirty or so in total. Before anyone knew it, they had managed to crowd into the badly damaged
meeting room.
Their leader, on the contrary, was a gentle middle-aged man in a suit and a pair of glasses. He didnât
seem to be the type to fight at all. Instead, his fair skin and brushed back hair made him look as if he
had just come back from a classy cocktail party.
Nora huffed coldly as soon as she saw the man. âWell, arenât you right on time, Kyle Jung? You came
after everyone has died. Were you calculating when you should come to benefit the most out of this
situation?â
This man with glasses was actually an official within America. Although he was born in a family trained
in cultivation, his spiritual roots were weak, making it impossible for him to master any cultivation skills.
Up till now, he was a mere beginner, still stuck in the Chi Refinement stage. It meant he didnât even
fulfill the requirements to participate in the enrollment competition into the Flying Eagles Academy.
However, this man was interested in politics. Since the Jung family had been in America for years, their
power was scattered across the entire country. Thus, they were somewhat involved in politics as well.
Relying on his familyâs help and his own skills, Kyle worked his way to becoming a senior police
inspector before hitting his fifties.
Despite that, he was still a weakling in the eyes of the high-ranking commanders of the Flying Eagles.
Hence, even though Nora was of lower political status, she still portrayed a rather rude attitude towards
him.
Kyle stole a glance at Nora and ignored her, turning to Jade instead. âCommander Benmore, are you
alright?â
Jade was severely poisoned to the point she could barely open her eyes.
Leaning against Alex, she said, âColton Lawrence is working with the Blood Cult to overthrow us, and
he has been killed on the spot for treason. You guys can leave now, Inspector Jung. Everythingâs under
control.â
âSo, what is the result of this meeting?â Kyle asked suddenly.
Nora was enraged. âKyle Jung, are you brain dead? They only held this meeting because Colton set up
a trap and lured us to the Myriad Demon Valley. Everyone here thought we died, so they had to
convene this meeting. Now that my sister is right here, why would they need to come up with a new
candidate? She is the only person who can be the commander in chief of the Flying Eagles.â
Kyle pushed up his glasses and smiled slyly. âBut I heard that Commander Benmore is badly injured,
and he canât even defeat Colton now. Now, sheâs weaker than the average person. I received orders
from the higher-ups to ensure that a new candidate is chosen at this meeting. Obviously, Commander
Benmore no longer suits this position.â
âBullsh*t!â Nora fumed.
The other members of the Flying Eagles Squad were so furious that they, too, started yelling at Kyle.
Suddenly, the people Kyle had brought along lifted their guns and pointed them at the Flying Eagles.
Way larger in size and clearly way more powerful, these guns greatly differed from their average
counterparts.
Eleanor spoke up. âMr. Jung, isnât this inappropriate, to be aiming guns at the heroes of the Flying
Eagles?â
Kyle smiled. âIâm just taking precautions in case one of you is a traitor like Colton Lawrence. All of you
should know how powerful the Flying Eagles are, right? If another commits treason, it wonâ t end well.
Thatâs why the Flying Eagles donât need too much power. They just need to be absolutely loyal.â
Jade opened her eyes and asked, âInspector Jung, you say that Iâm not suitable to be the commander
in chief. But could that be what you think, or has the parliament passed this suggestion?â
âThe parliament wanted to appoint a new commander in chief,â Karl replied. He had twisted the truth
slightly for his personal reasons.
The parliament only passed such a suggestion because they assumed Jade to be dead. Now that Jade
was back, it should most definitely be reconsidered.
Jade let out a frosty chuckle and closed her eyes. âFine, I agree.â
âNo!â yelled each member of the Flying Eagles squad in unison.
Jade said, âI have been poisoned, and I donât know how much time I have left. I really am not suitable
for this position, nor do I have the strength to keep serving the Flying Eagles.â
