Fade strode over and grabbed Hareeta by the collar. He then lifted her up and strode out of the room.
6 reg ary and the other team members' faces revealed their concern when they saw that. They got up and followed along.
"Let me go, let me go!" Hareeta struggled and shouted.
Fade slapped her across the face with his left hand as he shouted coldly, "Shut up."
Hareeta's cheeks were red and swollen, but she didn't dare to move. She could only allow Fade to carry her to the next room.
He pushed the door open and entered the room. He carried her to the two corpses that had been wrapped up, and threw her onto the ground as he bellowed, "Kneel!"
She struggled to get up. However, Fade kicked the back of her leg, causing her to fall to the ground with a thud in a kneeling position.
He added coldly, "No matter how you want to put it, they sacrificed their lives to save you. Now, kneel in front of them and don't you dare get up before the end of our meeting."
After that, he turned around and left.
Gregary and the other team members behind him saw such a scene as soon as they hurried over but they didn't say anything. Instead, they nodded their heads and agreed with Fade's behavior.
Just as Fade's right foot was about to step out of the room, he turned around and looked at the staff members inside, ordering, "Please keep an eye on her. You can inform me if she dares get up before the meeting is over."
After that, his gaze landed on Hareeta as he said, "If you're unhappy with it, you can try and get up. However, you'll have to bear the consequences yourself."
Upon hearing those words, she couldn't help shuddering.
His voice was cold as he continued, "Don't think that I don't have the guts to kill you just because you're from a real martial arts family. You should know that I even killed Elijah Zhao. I've never taken you seriously."
After that, he turned and left.
By then, not only Hareeta but even Gregary and the other team members were all shocked. Their expressions changed drastically as they stared at him in astonishment.
The previous sudden destruction of the Zhao family, who was the official guard family of Capital City, had caused a lot of speculation. According to various conjectures, many said that it was Fade who had destroyed them.
However, no one knew the details of how they had been destroyed, whether it had been by Fade himself, or someone else who had taken advantage of the situation.
Everyone tended to believe that it was Fade, who had grasped the Zhao family's weak spot, and turned it into a big deal. In the end, they believed that it was the higher-ups who destroyed the Zhao family.
After all, Elijah, the old master of the Zhao family, had been a master at the advanced stage of the Heaven Level. He had been ranked 8th on the Divine Dragon List and had been an absolute master in the country.
No matter how powerful Fade was, the public didn't think that he could defeat Elijah, let alone kill him.
However, Fade had personally admitted that he had killed Elijah. At that moment, it instantly shocked everyone.
After coming back to their senses, Gregary and his team members were immediately at ease. After all, the stronger Fade was, the more beneficial it would be for the competition the next day.
Upon hearing that, Hareeta couldn't help trembling in fear as she knelt on the ground.
As soon as she heard that Fade had killed Elijah, she first thought that he was lying. It was impossible! After all, a master like Elijah had been incredibly powerful even in a real martial arts family.
She later recalled the fact that Fade had killed five Sky Knights and more than a dozen martial artists at the early stage of the Heaven Level in the stadium.
One must know that the five Sky Knights were also at the advanced stage of the Heaven Level. Although they weren't as powerful as Elijah, five of them combined was indeed terrifying. Fade could kill all of them. As such, it was possible for him to kill Elijah as well.
