Lord Protector Novel

Chapter 1241

Chapter 1241

Suddenly, the door flung open.

The village chief barged in with an angry group of villagers.

They immediately began to chastise May.

“You sure have guts to attack Mr. Seaton, May.”

“I order you to kneel and apologize.”

“If you end up getting our village into trouble because of your actions, I’m going to dig up your family’s graves.”

The villagers’ words were full of reverence for the tunic-wearing man and admonishment for May.

May felt so aggrieved that her eyes brimmed with tears.

Nevertheless, she kept her head held high and refused to apologize.

Zeke heaved a loud sigh.

Her father was part of the army and a martyr.

Yet, they’re picking on her like this.

They’re even threatening to dig up her family’s graves.

It’s my fault for not taking good care of the families of my men. I’ve been negligent.

Now that all these were happening in front of Zeke, he was certainly going to bring justice to May.

He got off the bed and walked toward the villagers. “Don’t worry, May. You have me.”

The villagers gazed at him in puzzlement. “Who are you? This has nothing to do with you. You should get the hell out as soon as you can.”

“This is the man whom May had called over for help, my fellow villagers,” the village chief announced. “He’s the one who attacked Mr. Seaton. Beat this guy up and avenge Mr. Seaton! I’m sure Mr. Seaton will reward us well.”

The villagers instantly became worked up.

If they could help Mr. Seaton in any way, even the smallest reward he gave them would be enough for them to enjoy a life of glory and splendor.

This was their chance to alter their fates.

Hence, they began heading toward Zeke.

May subconsciously dragged behind her. “This has nothing to do with him. Just come after me -”

But before she finished speaking, a shadow flew past her and zoomed straight into the crowd.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

The villagers fell to the ground following the sounds of punches.

The shadow remained standing among them.

It was none other than Zeke.

As a saying went, even if the mighty were to fall, they would continue to hold more power over the ordinary.

Even if Zeke only had one last breath left, he was still far stronger than these commoners.

However, after moving, Zeke’s body suddenly turned cold. His limbs lost all their strengths, and his head spun.

Then, he coughed a mouthful of blood as he began to slump to the floor.

Fortunately, he managed to grab hold of a chair before falling.

Damn it!

Zeke’s complexion looked horrid.

While fighting the fifteen Archdukes, he had encountered an explosion from a bomb and was attacked by Pike’s Frostbite Poison. On top of that, he remained floating in the sea for an entire day and night.

Zeke’s strength was long gone.

Now that he had just used his abilities again, he could have possibly hurt his life force, causing his strength to fall sharply.

I may not stand a chance when National Security’s reinforcements get here.

May was mortified to see Zeke cough blood. “Are you okay?” she asked, rushing over to him.

“I’m fine,” Zeke answered stubbornly, despite looking pale and weak.

Mr. Seaton and his men were silently elated.

This man is indeed strong.

But judging from how he’s coughing blood just after dealing with a few henchmen, it looks like he’s past his limit.

He’s probably even injured his life force.

This is the perfect time to get rid of him.

Mr. Seaton immediately gave National Security another call, urging them to hurry.

Time would never wait for any man.

The villagers who were beaten to the ground boiled in anger.

To them, it was only natural to pick on a girl who had no parents.
