Chapter 1063
“This bloke’s done for! He’s only gone and roused the Scarlet God of War. He won’t even have enough lives to lose!”
“It’s safe to say this fella’s luck has run out. He’s run into his arch-nemesis, and there’s no escape for him.”
“Dying at the hands of the Scarlet God of War is quite the badge of honour for this guy.”
…
Many onlookers had their gaze fixed on Dustin.
Among them, you could see pity, sympathy, sorrow, and even a bit of schadenfreude.
Scarlet, the head coach of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, and Dylan, a senior officer of the same unit, had many assuming that Scarlet had come to Dylan’s rescue.
As for Dustin, despite his formidable abilities, it was clear he was no match for Scarlet.
This was an undeniable truth, no ifs or buts.
Because she was Scarlet, an undefeated legend!
“Sir! What brings you here?”
After a brief moment of surprise, Zhao Weiwu took the initiative to greet him. He was delighted but also somewhat puzzled.
Weren’t they supposed to handle an urgent matter in Yanjing?
What was Scarlet doing here?
“General Scarlet, we were attending a banquet today. Unexpectedly, there was trouble along the way, and someone even resorted to violence to kidnap the general. Thankfully, you arrived in time; otherwise, it could’ve been catastrophic!” Zhao Weiwu explained respectfully.
“Oh? Who’s holding you hostage?” Scarlet’s expression remained unchanged.
“That lad over there!”
Zhao Weiwu pointed at Dustin, appearing rather aggrieved.
“Um?”
Scarlet cast her gaze in that direction and couldn’t help but be slightly surprised.
There was a hint of astonishment in her composed eyes.
She had just arrived in the provincial capital and had originally planned to go directly to Dustin. However, upon hearing a report from her subordinates about the incident, she had come here spontaneously. Little did she know that she had stumbled upon the right scene and met the right person ahead of time.
Could this be fate?
“Sir! This man is the one who kidnapped me and is about to commit murder in public!” Zhao Weiwu continued his complaints.
“My lord! Help me! Please help me!”
Dylan struggled to break free from his restraints, rolling and crawling towards Scarlet’s feet, tears streaming down his face: “I’m a senior officer of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, and I’m under your
command.”
“This guy relies on his strength to act recklessly and tyrannically. Not only does he bully innocent people, but he also keeps threatening to kill me. It’s pure lawlessness!”
“Sir! You must make a decision for me this time!”
With that, he banged his head on the ground a few times, looking as though he were weeping bitterly.
“Why does he want to kill you?” Scarlet asked coldly.
“Huh?”
Dylan was momentarily stunned and slow to respond.
Shouldn’t he be defending himself at this point?
What did Scarlet mean by saying something like that now?
“Haven’t you heard my question? Why does he want to kill you?”
With a stern expression, Scarlet pressed the issue.
“I… I…”
Dylan found himself momentarily speechless.
“I’ll speak for him…”
Dustin interjected very directly: “He’s hired killers, murdered innocent people, and posed as a fraudster. He’s crossed my moral line, so I want him to pay for it with his life.”
“Nonsense!”
Dylan’s expression changed slightly as he sternly retorted, “I haven’t done anything wrong. Why are you slandering me like this?”
“So, you’re claiming you’re innocent?”
Scarlet’s eyes grew colder with each word.
“Sir! Don’t listen to his lies!”
Dylan began to protest, “I’m a member of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry. I’ve always followed our code of conduct. How could I engage in activities contrary to nature? Moreover, I’m your subordinate, and I’ll follow your orders. I dare to pledge my life that I’ll never violate the king’s laws!”
“If I tell a single lie, may I die on the spot!”
“Sir! Are you really going to trust a stranger over me?”
“If you truly doubt me, then I have no choice but to accept death!”
His words were delivered sincerely, passionately, and with a touch of tragic theatrics.
His exceptional acting skills nearly brought tears to one’s eyes.
Haha, I’m quite the actor, but why can’t I sway you?
“Do you genuinely intend to die to prove your innocence? Very well, then I shall grant your wish.”
Without uttering another word, Scarlet drew her Qingfeng sword and swiftly beheaded Dylan with a single stroke.
