Chapter 1971: Chapter 1972

The Pinnacle of LifeWords: 4965

Limbs were cut off, and multiple heads rolled on the ground that was filled with blood everywhere the

eye looked.

Jade Benmore’s sword had killed more than twenty people. The scene was deadly silent.

Darnic Young was not dead, but his entire body trembled. He felt the fear of death deep within himself.

He was the patriarch of the Young family, born into a line of military, and was also a government official

with a high position. However, how long has it been since the country has been at war? Other than the

war in the ancient boundary, there had almost not been any major battle that had taken place in the

normal planes of the country.

Also, he had never stepped foot into the ancient boundary.

He had also never faced the experience of going against a cultivator who stood at the pinnacle of

humankind. Darnic had always held great malice toward the female commander, Jade Benmore, and

tried his best to replace her… Last time during the commander selection meeting, he had been the one

to instigate it and took the position for himself.

However, at this moment, he truly understood the terror that was Jade Benmore.

Stuart looked at Jade in shock, unable to believe that she dared to kill someone.

Each of these people was representative of the government families and held powerful forces behind

them. If all the forces behind these families were to be added up, even the general manager of the

country would be jealous of the power they held.

“Jade, are you crazy?!”

“Do you know the consequences of doing this?”

Stuart pointed at the pile of corpses on the ground. “These are all talented cultivators that the super big

families in the country have trained with their blood and tears and were the pillars of the country’s

future! Now that you’ve killed them with one blow, their families will go nuts!”

Jade roared with laughter.

Her laugh shook the huge trees that surrounded them.

“Just rubbish like these, and they’re worthy of being called pillars of the country’s future?” Jade stared

at Stuart. “Tell me, what have they done for the people of this country? How many monsters have they

killed or foreign enemies? Humph, none, right? I think that these people don’t even know where the

ancient boundary is, right?”

“The country does not need insignificant ants who only know how to curry favor! The same goes for

you!”

“So what if I, Jade Benmore, decides to kill them? Who can do anything to me?”

Jade cut an imposing figure, and she looked grandeur. Her words resounded around them. Stuart didn’t

even dare to look at her directly.

At this moment, Jade reached out in the air and pulled Darnic over. “Darnic Young, since you’ve taken

the commander seat in Flying Eagles, then you need to be worthy of the name! If you’re not and only

know how to use your power for personal gain, then I will come after you again. When the time comes,

you will have no chance!”

She tossed Darnic away after that and said to Alex, “Let’s go!”

Alex picked up Geronimo, giving Darnic a long look before turning and leaving the Young family with

Jade.

Alex was sorely tempted to run Darnic through with his sword. He was the one who had ordered for his

grandfather to be arrested and had gotten Anna killed. He would temporarily put this debt to one side

and come to collect it in the future.

Darnic was now Flying Eagles’ commander, and he held the highest level of authority. Killing him in the

presence of so many people would just be attracting big trouble.

Jade would not allow him to do it either, but he could do it secretly.

***

Boom!

It seemed that the moment Alex and Jade had left the Young family residence, Darnic slammed his

palm on the table, shattering the table as well as the bowls and utensils on it.

His strength was not inadequate.

However, looking at the ground that had dozens of corpses littered on it, as well as the deep scars on

the ground left behind by Jade’s sword, it was apparent who had the superior strength here.

“Humph, this Jade Benmore. She thinks just because her cultivation base is high that she’s invincible in

this world and can do whatever she wants in America. Either way, the country belongs to us officials,

and she’s just an insignificant woman.”

“An abandoned woman!”

Stuart looked at Darnic and whispered, “Commander Young, you should keep your voice down. This

woman, Jade, is terrifying. She may still be able to hear you, and if she hears you calling her an

abandoned woman, she might go crazy.”

Darnic fell silent as soon as he heard it.

It took a while before he spoke again, “I’m Flying Eagles ’ commander. Do I need to fear her? The

Flying Eagles have always been a functional department of the government of America. She’s just

been allowed to be commander of them for a few years. Does she really think she owns the

department now? We’re the ones making the decisions still, and she’s just a lackey following orders.”
