Chapter 355 Trouble with Night Orchid

"Which Holmes?" asked Judge in a cold tone.

"It's... it's Mr Holmes of the Holmes clan in the capital..." Martin Rowse struggled to speak.

Even though he knew that selling out the Holmes clan would have serious consequences, he was well aware that if he didn't talk, Judge would likely execute him. Moreover, by implicating the Holmes clan, he hoped to create some level of deterrence.

"The Holmes clan again!" Judge furrowed his brow and then turned to Billy. "Boss, should we execute him?"

"No..." Martin Rowse shouted once more. "Mr Holmes is currently a guest at my residence. I'll immediately fetch him."

"Oh?" Billy raised an eyebrow. "You have five minutes."

"I'll go and get someone to fetch him..." Martin Rowse quickly looked at his younger brother, Daley Rowse. "Daley, bring Mr Holmes out."

"Yes." Daley Rowse hurriedly got up and ran toward the main courtyard.

Warwick Holmes arrived quickly and appeared at the courtyard entrance in less than three minutes.

"Mr Rowse, what's going on? Why did you need me to come out?" he grumbled impatiently as he walked.

Based on the expression on Warwick Holmes's face, it was clear that Daley Rowse hadn't dared to tell him the details of what had happened.

As he spoke, Warwick Holmes noticed that all of the Rowse family members were kneeling on the ground. He was momentarily taken aback and then turned his gaze toward Billy and the others.

"Commander Gardner?!" Warwick Holmes's heart skipped a beat as he recognized Billy. He had seen Billy once from a distance in the capital and knew who he was.

As the third-ranking member of the Holmes clan, he was well aware of their covert actions against Billy. He didn't have the courage to confront Billy directly.

"Are you Mr Holmes?" Billy asked in a calm tone. "Mr Rowse said that you were behind the operation to manipulate the antique market in Linkville."

"Martin Rowse, you scoundrel! You're falsely accusing me!" Warwick Holmes immediately retorted. He couldn't admit to this crime, as it would be a capital offense.

"Mr Holmes, I..." Martin Rowse began to tremble.

"I see you don't want to live anymore. How dare you accuse me? I'll kill you!" With that said, Warwick Holmes raised his hand and threw a palm strike towards Martin Rowse. He was quite skilled, having reached the Battle God's perfect stage.

A sharp blade aura shot out from Judge's hand, and instantly, Warwick Holmes's right arm was separated from his body before falling to the ground, blood spraying everywhere.

"Ah..." Warwick let out a painful cry, his eyes filled with rage as he glared at Judge. "How dare you..."

"I not only dare to cut off your arm, but I also dare to kill you. Do you believe it?" Judge coldly interrupted.

"You..." Warwick opened his mouth, wanting to say more, but he sensed the killing intent emanating from Judge and wisely chose to remain silent.

"Boss, what should we do?" Judge then turned to Billy and asked.

"Bring him back to SHADOW, let him confess all the dirty deeds of the Holmes family, including the matters related to Sanctum of Darkness," Billy said in a serious tone. "All the core members of the Rowse family should be taken in for a thorough investigation, and those deeply involved should be executed."

"Yes, Commander!" Judge and the others responded in unison.

Upon hearing these orders, including Warwick Holmes, everyone on the scene was left paralyzed.

...

The next morning, Billy woke up from his sleep and saw that Harleen was already up and dressed.

"Wife, why are you up so early? Don't you want to sleep a little longer?" Billy smiled faintly and spoke.

"I want to get out of bed before my rogue husband wakes up. Otherwise, who knows how long it'll take to finally wake up." Harleen complained.
