Back then, when the Dragon List was published, Fade had appeared on the list for the first time.
Their master, Galeno, had thought highly of Fade, so he asked Hollace and Lucille to find him, hoping to recruit him as a disciple and invite him to join the Martial Arts League.
At that time, Lucille and Fade had a small fight because of this incident.
Other than Galeno, Hollace, Lucille, and Fade, no one else knew about this matter.
Therefore, when Fade uttered these words, he had confirmed his identity.
That was why Hollace was so excited.
Fade patted Hollace's shoulder and said, "My name is Lundie Chen, and my nickname is Lunatic."
Hollace was stunned, but then he understood what Fade meant. Fade did not want to expose his identity at that moment.
Therefore, suppressing his excitement and joy, Hollace waved his hand and ordered his men, "Everyone, retreat."
"Captain Lin, this..." The armed man was puzzled.
Then, Hollace said in a deep voice, "Why? Don't you listen to my orders anymore?"
"But..."
"I'll take responsibility for what happens!" Hollace growled.
Hearing this, the armed soldiers had no choice but to retreat.
Hollace took Fade to his office. He closed the door and turned around, his face full of urgency. "Mr. Chen, it's great that you're still alive. I thought you died in that battle."
"How did you get through these three years? And what's going on now? Why did you change your name? What on earth happened?"
Hollace bombarded him with a series of questions.
Fade chuckled lightly and held Hollace down. Then, he briefly told him that he had been unconscious for three years and that he came to Cloud City after he woke up.
Then, he recounted his experiences in Cloud City.
After listening, Hollace slammed his fist on the table, his face full of anger. "This is too much. Those guys are lawless."
"Don't be emotional. Let's not care about them," Fade said.
"Mr. Chen, I'll find a way to get you out!" Hollace put on a serious expression and immediately checked something on the computer.
After a while, he said, "Mr. Chen, you're not even listed as a criminal. You're only a person of interest. It's against the rules to take you to Mount East Prison. I'll make a report and get you out immediately."
Fade nodded lightly. Apparently, he was not in a hurry.
However, in less than fifteen minutes, Hollace received a notification that the higher-ups had rejected his report.
"What are they doing? How could they approve such an illegal matter?"
"This can't be. I'll make another report."
Upon seeing this, Fade said, "Don't worry too much, Hollace. Don't get yourself involved in this. If the worse comes to worst, I'll just kill everyone on my way out."
"Mr. Chen, I understand. Please believe me, I’ll save you."
After saying that, Hollace continued to work.
That night, everyone in Mount East Prison fell into a heated debate.
It was already late at night, but the two parties were still arguing in the conference room.
One side insisted that Fade was not a criminal and should not be put in Mount East Prison. They also argued that he had been beaten and plotted against.
Meanwhile, the other side insisted that he was suspected of committing a crime and should not be let go easily.
Both sides failed to persuade each other, so they could only use their personal relations as an attempt to win the debate.
