Chapter 1985


    "No, we can''t let this go just like that! Sirs, Joel was the one whomanded Seth and Gordon to


    commit such a heinous crime, so you have to bring him back to the headquarters for interrogation!"


    Leon''s face was calm, but there was a hint of authority in his tone that made everyone perk up.

    "Have you gone insane, Leon? Do you honestly think the Dragon Corps will arrest me just because you


    asked them to? Who do you think are?" Joel snickered, casting Leon a nce of disdain.


    The Hiltons were so powerful that as long as he did not get involved in murder or any crime of the sort,


    the Dragon Corps would not dare toy a finger on him!


    Besides, he covered up his tracks very well and did not once hurt Leon or Iris himself at all!


    He could not believe that Leon, a nameless nobody from Springfield City, would have the audacity to


    command the Dragon Corps to arrest him!


    One would have to be out of their right mind to do this!


    "Ignore him, Joel! Let''s go!" Devon scoffed. He, like Joel, did not think much of Leon''s words at all.


    Although now he knew that Leon had some connections to the Dragon Corps, this did not mean the


    Dragon Corps would be at his beck and call!


    Oliver and Abraham could not act on Leon''s baseless ims and arrest anyone without evidence


    unless they were even bigger idiots than Leon himself!


    However, what happened next shocked them all to the core.


    "Wait! Elder Hiltons, you and the rest of your men can leave, but Joel has to stay!" Oliver and Abraham


    stepped forward to block their path.


    "What?" everyone, including Angus and n, was stunned by this, unable to believe their ears.


    None of them ever imagined that the Dragon Corps would indeed obey Leon''smand to arrest Joel!


    "Mister Jelphs, Mister Scottson, what is the meaning of this? what are you trying to do?" Devon''s


    expression darkened.


    "What we''re trying to do is simple—your grandson is suspected of attempted abduction and wrongful


    restraint, and he needs toe with us to the Dragon Corps headquarters for interrogation!" Oliver


    replied. Although none of them had any evidence of Joel''s wrongdoing, they could tell from Leon''s tone


    what he was prepared to do.


    Leon intended to do the same with Joel as he did with Rodney—keep him in captivity for a few days to


    teach him a lesson!


    Of course, in consideration of the Hiltons'' power, the Dragon Corps could not possibly do anything else


    apart from this, but since Leon was a tinum Dragon Guard, it was well within his right to arrest Joel


    for interrogation!


    "Nonsense! Oliver Jelphs, let me warn you, if you want to take my grandson away, you''ll have to give


    me a proof first! If not, I won''t hesitate to use violence!" Devon was infuriated by this. A surge of energy


    emanated all around him and charge straight toward Oliver and Abraham!


    Although Oliver and Abraham were Gold Dragon Guards, they were not the most authoritative of the


    Dragon Corps—they still had the tinum Dragon Guards and Mister sbey, the person in charge of


    the entire Southern region branch, above them!


    As second-level guards, neither Oliver nor Abraham were in any position to represent the Dragon


    Corps and arrest Joel without evidence of his crimes!


    If they were to do so, the Hiltons had the perfect reason to strike back against them, and if this got out,


    the ones that would have to bear the consequences were Oliver and Abraham themselves, since they


    acted out of line!
