Chapter 565: Chapter 383: The Sang Island Delegation in Action_1
With great helplessness, Colby Dominic, the Central Prison Commander and Supreme cultivator of the Sixth Great Realm, led his subordinates to capture the Summit Commandant, Owen Bertram, only to return in disgrace... Losing face! When the word spreads later, the Central Prison will not be able to hold its head up among the Five Great Powers of the Horizon Bureau.
But would he go and meet the Emperor with Owen Bertram? He didn’t have the courage. Colby Dominic was at least 70% sure that those Southern Border soldiers were hidden in Owen Bertram’s mansion.
Colby Dominic knew the Emperor well; he was someone who favored personal relationships over justice. This "favoritism" did not refer to relatives, but to whoever the Emperor decided to favor. Apparently, His Majesty and Owen Bertram had become close recently, so if Colby went to the palace with Owen, the Emperor would scold him before he could even speak.
The Emperor would be somewhat restrained by the cultivation of the Sixth Great Realm, but it would only mean Colby wouldn’t be subjected to corporal punishment.
After the Great Eunuch finished speaking, he waved his duster and said to Owen Bertram, "Master Owen, let’s hurry. His Majesty won’t blame you for his impatience, but he will give our family a beating."
He led Owen Bertram forward with disdain for Colby Dominic’s blockade. Colby Dominic, holding back his anger, stepped aside, and the people of the Central Prison moved away, looking defeated like a rooster who lost a fight.
As Owen Bertram passed by Colby Dominic, he smiled and said, "Master Colby, there is only my younger sister and a cultivator of the Sixth Great Realm in my mansion. If you attempt to raid my mansion while I am meeting with His Majesty, my sister has a bad temper and is used to hitting people with a spoon. I am not responsible for any consequences."
Colby Dominic’s face darkened, but he didn’t say anything. What does your sister have to do with him? Would an old man like him be afraid of a little girl? You also have Ken in your mansion, and if you started fighting, the old man wouldn’t have any advantage. Abner Lane would come to help quickly, and afterward, you would surely file a complaint with the Emperor, who would then punish Colby Dominic. Today, he is indeed defeated.
Thinking of Ken, Colby Dominic felt nauseous: What sins had he committed to have such an expert protect him?
Owen Bertram was well aware of the situation. What he said was the truth. For ordinary cultivators, Ken would be a much greater threat than Verna, but for Colby Dominic of the Sixth Great Realm... Verna’s threat would certainly be greater than Ken’s. After all, how would an old man like him save face if he got hit in the forehead with a spoon by a little girl?
As for whether Colby Dominic would believe him or not, that would be his problem.
When Owen Bertram and the others had gone far, a cautious Prescott of the Central Prison came forward and asked, "Master, are we still going to break in?"
Colby Dominic glared at him fiercely and left with a flick of his sleeve. The other people of the Central Prison followed in shame, while the people of the Southern Prison Town Comforting Office laughed loudly behind them.
Owen Bertram entered the palace and told the Emperor all about the conditions offered by the Moses Sect. The Emperor was very satisfied, knowing he would receive at least ten million Spirit Jade from the Moses Sect every year!
The Moses Sect was very cooperative. Having decided to bow their heads to the Emperor in order to balance the imperial ministers, they would not be stingy and upset the Emperor.
Owen Bertram was also pleased with this result. While it was a bit of a waste to let the Emperor spend this money lavishly, it was much better than using it on military and civilian life. The Moses Sect was no charity; the money they gave to the Emperor was for their own protection, not to Owen Bertram or Adonis Dunn, who couldn’t achieve the same effect.
Now that the Emperor had this money, he would finally be a little quieter and wouldn’t impulsively appoint another Evans Graham to wreak havoc on the world.
"My dear minister, you did a good job. Go back, regain strength, and prepare for the First Stage Assessment! I am looking forward to seeing you at the top of the A-list!" The Emperor laughed heartily.
...
Owen Bertram didn’t return from the Imperial Palace until evening. Donald Lee and the others had been waiting in Owen Bertram’s room, feeling extremely uneasy. They had no acquaintance with Owen, so why would he protect them?
In the meantime, some old soldiers even suspected that this was Master Owen’s plot, not turning them over to Colby Dominic in order to keep the credit for the Southern Prison. They even considered escaping from the city when Owen Bertram wasn’t around.
Although Colby Dominic was gone, there were still watchers from the Central Prison surrounding the mansion.
The gates of the city were also guarded and searched by the Central Prison.
Moreover, if Owen Bertram was really plotting something, there was still a cultivator of the Sixth Great Realm in the mansion who wouldn’t let them leave.
After such anxious waiting for several hours, they finally saw Master Owen return.
When Owen Bertram came back, he checked carefully and then bluntly told Donald Lee, "The Central Prison has sealed off the capital, and you can’t get out for now. There are watchers of Colby Dominic all around my mansion, and the cultivator of the Sixth Great Realm won’t give up so easily!"
A few old soldiers panicked and stood up, exclaiming, "Let’s fight our way out! We’ve survived countless bloody battles with the Nanni Nation in the Southern Border, I don’t believe we will be trapped and killed in this city when we return to the capital!"
"Master Owen, we appreciate your selflessness and will always remember it. If we don’t have a chance to repay you in this life, we’ll do it in the next one!"
Donald Lee also slowly stood up and clasped his fists, "Master Owen, thank you for saving me in the First Stage Assessment. I understand your efforts during the second and third stages; you are a good officer and we shouldn’t drag you down with us..."
Owen Bertram said indifferently, "Sit down, all of you!"
Donald Lee was taken aback, and Owen Bertram sneered, "What can Colby Dominic do to me? Your little matters aren’t enough to involve me."
