“Oh? River North War Department?”

White Mitchell, upon hearing this, revealed an amused expression on his face. At this moment, Kylin slowly came to his side, whispering a few words into his ear.

After hearing this, the playful look on his face grew even more pronounced. He spoke indifferently: “Since the River North War Department wants to intervene, let them come then.”

Upon receiving the command, Kylin allowed the crowd standing at the foot of the mountain to pass without obstruction.

Before long, four or five Warrior Armored Vehicles ascended the mountain at a considerable speed.

Less than a minute passed, those four or five Warrior Armored Vehicles appeared in front of the villa.

Once Kingston saw the license plates, a look of surprise and delight instantly flashed across his face.

[River A… War!]

This was the War Department’s license plate, it was River North War Department’s license plate!

Seeing this Warrior Armored Vehicle, the entire Sabir family was invigorated, their spirits lifted from their previous despondency.

The River North War Department, it must be here to assist their Sabir family!

“White Mitchell! I gave you a chance just now, and it’s you who didn’t cherish it. Now, you can await your death!” Kingston smiled coldly, his previous anxiety vanished.

At the same time, the door of the Warrior Armored Vehicle swung open quickly, and a young figure swiftly got out.

“Luis!”

Upon seeing this individual, Kingston was overjoyed and shouted eagerly at the person: “Luis! This bastard has no respect for the law, he’s been murdering freely, look at Jun Hong, he was tortured by him!

Quickly! Report this to the River North War Department, let them bring him to justice!”

Luis who arrived late, furrowed his brows upon seeing the scene before him.

He had initially spent almost two weeks leading an intensive training program outside River North but then suddenly received news about unrest back home.

He knew that the entire Sabir family was prepared to confront someone, and he had originally come to stop them from causing any more trouble. But to his surprise, when he arrived, the situation was entirely different.

For a moment, Luis’s emotions were a tumultuous mix.

He knew well the unspeakable things the Sabir family had done to rise to power, and because he was disgusted by their actions, he had decided to join the War Department, avoiding all involvement in the family affairs.

But now, seeing that the Sabir family was troubled, as a member of the Sabir family himself, he found it difficult to stand by and do nothing.

Phew!

Luis inhaled deeply, then turned to face White Mitchell.

“I am Luis from River North War Department, the War King. I don’t care which War Department you’re from, but this is River North, the base of River North War Department!

You’ve violated the rules of the War Department by intruding without permission. I now command you to release the hostages and hand over this place to us, the River North War Department, to handle!”

Luis was firm in his stance. The several soldiers behind him from the River North War Department all displayed serious expressions, with no signs of backing down.

All of a sudden, the situation on the scene became tense once again.

Meanwhile, White Mitchell still wore an amused expression on his face. He quietly looked at Luis and asked, “So, are you insisting on siding with your Sabir family?”

Upon hearing this, Luis felt guilty but still stubbornly replied, “The River North War Department doesn’t need outsiders to interfere in our business. All you need to know is that this is River North, and you’ve crossed the line!” “How audacious! How dare a mere War King behave so insolently here?” Boom!

At that moment, the aura emanating from Kylin surged once more, a terrifying force pressed directly towards Luis.

Whoosh!

Startled, Luis hurriedly rallied his power to resist, only to find his aura utterly overwhelmed by Kylin’s.

What…

As a War King, Luis, of course, knew that even within the War King realm there were variations in strength.

In the War Department, there was an unwritten rule for categorizing the strength of a War King, divided into four levels: novice, minor achieved, major achieved — and finally, the Titled level!

Luis himself was a novice-level War King.

Although this rank may not be strong among War Kings, achieving it at under thirty years old is an accomplishment worthy of a genius.

His master once told him that his talent was exceptional, even amongst the entire Dragon Realm War Department.

It was for this reason that the River North War Department intended to groom him as a core figure in the future.

But, even he, who was held in such high esteem by the River North War

Department, saw his aura completely crushed by this young man before him.

This person before him must be a War King above the novice level – he could very possibly be a minor achieved War King!

What’s more, his age didn’t seem much different from his own, they might even be on the same level.

This revelation completely outshone the talent that Luis always prided himself on, causing a great blow to his confidence.

His face turned a steely cold as he strained to resist Kylin’s War King aura. Cold sweat trickled down his face, his mood was bitterly surpressed to the extreme.

“Just which War Department do you belong to! How dare you openly offend the River North War Department, do you truly believe there’s no one in the River North War Department!” Luis said through gritted teeth.

Upon hearing this, Kylin coldly smiled: “Offend you? If you weren’t a member of the War Department, do you think you’d even have the right to speak here?”

“You!”

Luis was left speechless, filled with reluctance, and glared viciously at Kylin. He threatened, “Quite the bully! Let me tell you, my master is Lorenzo, the major achieved War King of the River North War Department!”

“Lorenzo?”

Kylin shook his head: “I’m sorry, I’ve never heard of him.”

“Hmph! A distinguished major achieved War King is not someone a minor achieved War King like you would know of. You’re not of high enough rank! I advise you to show mercy when you can!”

“This place is River North, and it is the base of our River North War

Department. It’s not your place to run wild. If you continue to be stubborn, you will face the wrath of the whole River North War Department!”

Luis stubbornly continued to threaten Kylin, but at that moment, Kylin merely shook his head quietly: “What a pain!”

Kylin had clearly run out of patience, and was ready to incapacitate Luis. Just as he prepared to move, a figure emanating a sky-high murderous aura ran up from the foot of the mountain.

A number of guards stationed along the way were knocked down by him. Although they hadn’t planned to stop him, it was clear that they wouldn’t have been able to stop him anyway.

Boom!

In just a blink of an eye, this person, like a cannonball, fiercely landed between Kylin and Luis.

The site was instantly cratered into a terrifying pit!

It looked as if the place had been bombed, and was instantly left devastated.

Judging from the overwhelming murderous aura coursing from this person, his strength far exceeded Luis’s by more than a bit.

He was Luis’s master, the major achieved War King from the River North War Department, Lorenzo!

Upon arriving, Lorenzo immediately demonstrated his powerful means.. His upright figure, standing like a mountain, stood in front of Luis, his voice coldly addressed Kylin: “Who dares harm my disciple!?”
