Chapter 237 Lysander Was Valiant

"Didn't you hear me tell you to stop?" Another angry shout rang out, and then Lysander, dressed in casual clothes, appeared in everyone's sight.

"And who are you? No one can stop me from doing what I want!" Kenny turned his head and glanced at Lysander indifferently with a hint of suspicion flashing in his eyes.

From Lysander, Kenny didn't sense the aura of a warrior like Lucien. He reckoned that Lysander was either a master-level expert, whose attainment was unfathomable for him, or an ordinary person who had yet to train in superpowers formally! 

But how could such an ordinary person have the audacity to shout in front of him?

"You're young, but you talk really big! Even Dorian isn't that powerful. Don't forget this is Everglow City of Vexa, and it is not the private territory of the Ashford family. Are you planning to rebel?" Lysander immediately frowned and scolded discontentedly.

Being accused all of a sudden made Kenny's face extremely grim.

"Are you from the Harris family?" Kenny squinted and asked.

"No. You can consider me a passerby. Even if they did something wrong, the law will punish them severely. It's not up to you to punish them at will!" Lysander reminded him neither humbly nor arrogantly.

"I don't care who you are. You should know that the law is for ordinary people. Among warriors, it's the fists that do the talking! Don't try to twist the facts and accuse me. It's not going to work!" Kenny snorted dismissively.

"That's right. You are indeed a warrior, but they are ordinary people. It's even more wrong if a warrior bullies the ordinary people!" Lysander pointed at Lucien and the others, his words becoming even sharper.

"Who exactly are you? Daring to meddle in the Ashford family's affairs, you must be courting death! What are you all standing around for? Get this blockhead out of here!" Magnus shouted coldly at the security guards nearby.

Two security guards immediately blocked Lysander and warned him harshly, "Sorry, sir. You're not welcome here, and this is our work area. Please leave immediately, or we won't be polite!" 

"My territory, my rules! This is my rule! I advise you not to intrude recklessly if you don't have the ability, or you'll only bring trouble upon yourself! Leave now before I change my mind!" Kenny sneered as he saw Lysander being blocked by the two security guards.

"What do you think you're doing? Kenny, what do you think you can do to me?" Lysander shouted angrily. He took out his officer's credentials from his pocket and held it high above his head!

"You're a soldier?" Kenny's face immediately changed.

"Let them go now!" Lysander snorted coldly.

"What if I say no? Since when could the military interfere in local matters? Do you really think I should be afraid of a soldier?" Kenny's mouth twitched twice, his heart filled with suspicion, but he clearly had no intention of backing down. 

He thought, 'Even if he were a soldier, I wouldn't be concerned about an ordinary one.'

"Then open your eyes wide and see clearly before you speak!" Lysander opened his officer's credentials, reminding him with a cold smile.

"Guard Bureau! Colonel Lysander!" The security guard in front of him shivered, clearly not expecting Lysander to have such a significant background!

The Guard Bureau was already an unattainable existence for ordinary people, and this middle-aged man, who looked at most around forty, was actually a colonel!

The Ashford family members immediately had complicated expressions while Lucien and the others were confused about what was going on with Lysander, who appeared suddenly!

Could this officer happen to see them being bullied by the Ashford family? He couldn't stand it, so he stepped in to help. Even Lucien found this probability too far-fetched!

After the initial shock, Kenny quickly regained his composure and even showed a faint smile. "Your identity is quite intimidating. If you were a colonel with real power, I might actually be concerned. But you're just a guard, at most, with a colonel's rank. What can you do to me? Isn't the Guard Bureau's duty to protect leaders? Since when did you start meddling in other people's business?"

Lysander's heart sank. He hadn't expected Kenny to be so arrogant!

As Kenny said, in reality, his rank as a colonel held no real deterrent power locally. The true deterrent was Remington behind him! But not everyone knew that Lysander was Remington's driver, and not everyone would show respect to him!

Lysander thought, 'It seemed Ethan is right; Kenny is indeed arrogant! Ethan, don't let me down.' He sighed inwardly, then drew the gun from his waist and pointed it at Kenny with a blank expression!

No one expected Lysander to be carrying a gun, let alone have the guts to point it directly at Kenny. Everyone's faces changed instantly!

"Do you know what you're doing?" Kenny asked angrily, barely containing his fury.

"I just want to save them. Let them go, and we can talk," Lysander sneered.

"Do you believe I can have you court-martialed and that you will spend the rest of your life in prison?" Kenny warned with a grim face.

"It doesn't matter. That's between us. If you want to target me, I'll be ready anytime! But you must release them immediately!" Lysander laughed indifferently.

At this moment, Lucien and the others swallowed hard, feeling immense gratitude towards Lysander. They hadn't expected a soldier, who had nothing to do with them, to be willing to take such a stand for them!

"Kenny, it seems he has a significant background. What should we do now?" Magnus asked Kenny with a frown.

"I don't care about his background. If he dares to offend me, he should be prepared to face my wrath!" A surge of indignation swiftly engulfed his initial apprehensions!

"Let them go!" Lysander ordered sternly, frowning.

"Go ahead, shoot me if you dare!" Kenny squinted his eyes, sneering dismissively.

"Do you really think I won't?" As soon as Lysander finished speaking, a gunshot rang out. A bullet hit the tile at Kenny's feet, cracking it and leaving a deep bullet hole!

Kenny's eyes widened and his heart pounded wildly. He hadn't expected Lysander actually to have the guts to fire!

"I'll say it one more time. Let them go! Otherwise, the next bullet won't be aimed at the floor!" Lysander warned again unflinchingly.

"Fine! Very well! You've successfully angered me! I don't care who you are. If you want to take responsibility for them, I'll oblige!" Kenny nodded. He gave a cold smile after a few seconds of silence.

"Kenny, should we really let them go?" Magnus asked, frowning.

"Let them go! They're just a bunch of trash. I can deal with them anytime. But keep an eye on this guy. He won't be leaving today!" Kenny's anger had completely shifted from Lucien and the others to Lysander.

It was the first time someone had pointed a gun at Kenny, and the first time he had felt the threat of a weapon. He thought, 'Just now, this guy dared to fire at me, even though he just hit the floor beneath my feet. I absolutely couldn't tolerate it!'

"Let them go!" Magnus finally ordered the security guards to let them go!
