Moon Warriors novel Chapter 20

The man landed on the ground, he raised his hand and signaled his troop to stop.

It felt like time and space was at a halt.

It was instantly quiet, so quiet that it was terrifying.

The man didn’t say anything. He raised his head and looked at the shocked and tongue-tied people in front of the Martin family’s house entrance staring at him.

He took large strides and walked towards the crowd. The warriors stared at his back. This was their god, the legend of the H Country.

And it was nobody else but the son-in-law of the Clark family, Andrew Stone!

Andrew stopped in front of Asher. Asher was still in a daze and was out of it.

Emily and everyone from the Martin family were stunned! Nobody could recover from this shock.

After a long while, Asher finally snapped out of it. His face was changing colors as he looked at Andrew and asked, “Who in the world are you?”

“What do you think? Who do you think I am?” asked Andrew casually.

And then, a strong man walked over.

The domineering man took large strides and the moment he walked over, the atmosphere inside the Martin family turned even heavier.

He stopped at the entrance and looked around. In the end, he locked his gaze at Asher, who was also wearing an army uniform.

Asher was scared to death. He quickly stood up straight and saluted with a stern face.

He yelled, “Northwest Subregion Deputy Commander, Asher Turner, here!”

Junior was the Deputy Commander of the Northwest Region. He was from the mysterious and powerful Seven League. He was well-known.

And Asher was only a Deputy Commander of a Subregion. Their status was too far apart.

Asher might not know Andrew, but he couldn’t not recognize the Four-star Deputy Commander from the battlefield ! He was indirectly his superior!

Everyone thought that Asher, the Three-star Deputy Commander was crazy powerful enough, but there was someone with an even higher status than him!

Junior ignored him and stood in front of Emily. He held a box and bowed 90 degrees, he said, “The Deputy Commander of Northwest Region, Junior Phillips. I am here under the command of the Commander to celebrate your birthday, madam. May you be forever young and here’s a thousand years old ginseng!”

Emily’s expression changed slightly, she turned her head and looked at Andrew.

Andrew was smiling plainly as usual. There wasn’t much change in expression on his face.

The Deputy Commander of Northwest Region called her madam. Was Andrew really his superior?

Madam, it was a very respectful way of referring to someone. It wasn’t for anybody.

Then, what position did Andrew really hold?

Emily didn’t know, and nobody here knew anything either. Only Asher was trembling violently inside!

The person whom Junior was referring to as Madam, who else could it be but the god of war’s wife?

Junior finished his sentence and put the thousand years old ginseng on the table next to Emily with no expression on his face. He then backed away.

The people were still in a state of shock while the other Deputy Commanders went up one by one, presenting their gifts.

The Deputy Commanders, when not together, each existed to suppress the other. And every single one of them was here today.

And they were here to do the same thing that was to give their wishes to Emily and present her gifts.

Who in the world was Andrew?

Everyone couldn’t get their mind straight, no matter how they couldn’t comprehend the situation before them.

Asher was sweating relentlessly. The Deputy Commander of the Northwest Region was enough to make him tremble, but now 5 of them were here. They were standing side by side as if a war was going to start anytime.

He couldn’t stand it anymore, he stuttered, “Well, well, my good sirs, I didn’t know that the Martin family was related to my good sirs. If I were to know, I, I wouldn’t have come here today. My good sirs, I’ll, I’ll be taking my leave.”

He was suffocating just standing next to them!

As Asher was trying to run away, Andrew yelled sternly, “Stand there!”

Just with two words, Asher planted his feet in the ground.

He turned his head and looked at Andrew all terrified. Andrew questioned him with a nonchalant tone, “Didn’t you say that you are going to take my wife away just now? Well, she’s still here and you’re leaving already?”

Andrew’s voice was soft but every word was bombarding Asher’s heart.

His eyes were wide open. How would he dare to bring her away, at this point he would call himself lucky if he was able to leave without a scratch.

He raised his hand and wiped the sweat off his forehead, he said, “No, that was a misunderstanding!”

“Misunderstanding?” said Andrew coldly.

He then said lightly, “If I’m not mistaken, you are the one that violated the military regulations.”

Asher was stunned!

“Asher Turner!” A mighty voice could be heard coming from outside. Soon after a big and tall dark-skinned man stood before the crowd. His footsteps were powerful and steady.

It was Phoenix, he appeared at Ray’s conference and hence people recognized him.

Everyone’s face turned stern as they remembered how even Ray treated him with respect.

“Commander Phoenix!” Asher broke out in cold sweat as he saluted.

Phoenix glanced at Asher and said, “You think we couldn’t catch you once you ran to K City?”

Asher’s face turned green, he looked puzzled as he asked, “Catch me? Commander, are you perhaps mistaken?”

“Hmph!” yelled Phoenix furiously, “Asher, you know what you did!”

Asher was about to cry, he was confused, “I really don’t know what I did wrong!”

“You abused your power to get your position. That itself is a huge violation of discipline. I’m here to bring you back for questioning.”

After that, a few warriors with guns walked up. They tied Asher up with a thick rope.

Asher’s arrogance disappeared into thin air this instance!

Isaac’s face was turning green as well. He was indeed the head of the family of the most influential family in K City, but he wouldn’t dare to offend these people.

He asked meekly, “My good sirs, I’m the head of the Turner family. Regarding my brother…”

“Out of the way,” said Phoenix harshly. Isaac trembled in fear.

What Turner family, what most influential family. It meant nothing to the Deputy Commander of Southwest Region.

Not to mention that even Ray, the richest person in Southwest Region also treated Phoenix with respect.

He turned around and saluted Andrew.

Everyone was shocked to see him doing that.

Mario’s eyes and mouth were open wide, so wide that an egg could fit in his mouth.

“Father, father!” Mario was trembling as he held his father, Eden.

But his legs were jelly and he couldn’t support his father, they fell onto the ground.

His legs were jelly. They turned to jelly from fear. How could he not in this situation?

Emily’s heart was beating fast. She looked at Andrew and knew that this Andrew wasn’t the Andrew she knew anymore.

After Phoenix saluted, he said seriously, “Andrew, thank you for your help. If it wasn’t for you, we wouldn’t be able to catch him so soon.”

Andrew looked at Phoenix and saluted back at him simply, he said casually, “No problem, it’s no big deal.”

His cavalier attitude was like how the general talked to their subordinates on television, he was obviously superior.

Phoenix turned around and looked at Emily who was turning pale from shock. He bowed 90 degrees respectfully and said, “Phoenix Morgan here. May you be able to have a baby soon and this is a gift from me, a Yang Pill.”

Phoenix’s directness made Emily even more uncomfortable than before.

Andrew couldn’t help but cleared his throat.

Phoenix put down the gift and said to Andrew, “Well then, we’ll be taking our leave.”

Andrew waved his hand and said, “Go ahead! Thank you all for coming.”

The rest of the people extended their farewell and left one after another.
