f the naughty kid.

 

But, Wu Yan & co isn't affiliated with anyone nor were they an established sect.

 

Ladin family had no choice but to launch a formal complain against the imperial family.
This is on the basis that Wu Yan is the princess' fiancee.

 

Kate is also having a minor headache over how to defuse this situation.
The tier 9 retired patriarch from Ladin family wouldn't stop requesting support and sanction against Wu Yan for killing one of the pillars of their family.

 

Andrew acted in the empire's interest when running this base.
Technically speaking, he died in active duty so this fell within the imperial family's authority and responsibility to arbitrate.
The other two noble houses couldn't excuse itself too.

 

The retired patriarch suggested a coalition to take Wu Yan down.

 

But, who would be dumb enough to go with that crazy fool?

 

One wrong move and Yakumo might come knocking on their doors.

 

The imperial family and the Lori family stood with Wu Yan on this case.
A coalition seems impossible, at least, they won't be supporting any open attack against them.

Moreover, Cyto family which is already on bad terms with Wu Yan couldn't wait to jump on this bandwagon.
Yakumo defeated the retired patriarch soundly in front of all the Board members.
Bing Ling, the successor also lost in combat to Wu Yan.
Bing Mian also almost died from Wu Yan reflecting his sneaky poison back into Bing Mian.

 

With two supporting and two abjecting, this problem got raised to the Board where all 12 members debated each other on ethics and law.

 

In the end, the meeting ended without conclusive action.
Yakumo's existence is the one deterrent they couldn't overlook.
Thus, the Ladin family can only go home and lick their wounds.

 

With so many people dragged into this affair, the Ladin family will probably stop at nothing to get their revenge.

 

With a demigod-level threat looming overhead, the Ladin family reckons they couldn't make big splashes, how about small ones?

 

Outside Pelosi and Marcus' tent, the forces affiliated with the Ladin family chanted and protested.

 

“Chase them out! Chase them out! Chase them out! Chase them out!…”

 

The Ladin forces gathered as they raised their armaments in protest.
Other soldiers stuck around to watch the commotion.
They more or less know how things came to be.

 

Pelosi and Marcus stared at each other.
They sighed while shaking their heads.
Pelosi looked like he's not paid enough to deal with troubles like these while Marcus enjoyed what he's seeing.

 

“Silence!”

 

Pelosi raised his voice while frowning.

“Have you forgotten what this base stands for? Is this a market where you can make a ruckus?”

 

Pelosi quelled the crowd with his voice but the soldiers didn't disperse.
They clearly want to make their message known.

 

A leader-looking representative was sent out.

 

“Captain Pelosi! Captain Marcus!”

 

He bowed towards the two captains, however, he sounded like he's picking a fight.

 

“We understand the clamor we are causing is disrupting the peace.
However, we cannot suffer in silence when there's a killer walking around.
Please do the right thing and chase the killer out of this base so our soldiers might sleep in peace!”

 

“Yeah!”

 

Another soldier chimed in.

 

“We don't know if they are going to come at us when they feel like it! We won't be able to put up a fight at all!”

 

The Ladin forces echoed their protests.
Not just, the soldiers sticking around also thought seriously about this.
Their voices swayed popular opinion against Wu Yan & co.

 

As time went on, more and more soldiers joined in.
At this rate, all the soldiers might protest.

 

Things on this side is already seriously wrong…
