Chapter 733 The General's Order (Part One)

"My Lord, I was discourteous. Please forgive me if I have offended you!" Darren expressed uneasily and promptly got down on one knee. Regret was clearly evident in his whole being.

"Offended me? Not in the least! Please get up and stop making your heart troubled. Ha-ha! I knew you meant no harm when being mad at me regarding the Cross Expeditionary Force. On the contrary, I see it as a manifestation of your goodwill. How can I blame a man of good virtue? Please stop blaming yourself and rise immediately!" Lord Donald paused and thoughtfully watched the young man kneeling before him. Sighing, he purposely took a step forward and reached out right away to help Darren up by the arm.

"Oh, come on. What is the use of drawing the blame to yourself when you are not at fault? It's all because of the Cross Expeditionary Force. They are the ones that are responsible for this whole drama," Elsa pointed out with a warm smile plastered on her face.

"Ha-ha! You are right!"

Hearing Elsa's outburst, both Darren and Lord Donald laughed in unison and good-naturedly nodded in agreement.

So, without further platitudes and formalities, Lord Donald and Darren eventually sat down and soon embarked on their council.

"Auberon, come out and show yourself!" Lord Donald commanded authoritatively as soon as he settled himself. Then immediately after, Auberon came into everyone's sight in the room.

"What can I do for you, My Lord?" Auberon inquired almost immediately as he stooped low, showing his deep respect for the lord.

"I dispatch you to check out the Cross Expeditionary Force straight away. If there is anything that they are not doing based on the rule, have them provide a rational explanation. Otherwise, I should suppress their evil spirits even if I have to send an army upon them!" Lord Donald instructed with a grave expression on his face. His deep voice reverberated with expected firmness.

"Yes, sir!" Auberon solemnly responded as if everything was anticipated. And a moment later, he efficiently

untly at Darren.

"I got it," Lord Donald nodded and implied. "So you think he killed your team members, right? But did he try to kill you?"

"Lord Donald, don't talk nonsense! Just hand him over!" Eason Ye interjected. His attitude was cold and arrogant, and his words were mean.

"Don't worry, Eason. If I remember correctly, you are the general of the Third Army, under the command of Edwin Ye, right?" Lord Donald calmly pursued.

Eason Ye snorted with anger, and he felt restless and annoyed. "I told you. Don't talk nonsense! Hand over that brat or your Sacred Palace will be demolished!" he thundered, looking stubbornly straight into Lord Donald's eyes.

"That's great," Lord Donald commented dismissively. He still didn't give his consent.

Just as Eason was about to draw out his weapon in wrath, Lord Donald suddenly vanished from his seat. And when he reappeared again, Eason's head had already exploded.

"You don't deserve to be a general. How dare you threaten me like that? It is no exaggeration to end your life here. Throw his body out!" in a tone of voice as calm and flat as ever, Lord Donald ordered his men.

While Darren, who keenly observed the exchange of words between the two, stared at Lord Donald with total disbelief showing in his eyes. He didn't expect the ever kind and amiable lord to kill someone today.
