Yes, that must be it.Why else would the chiliarchs, Gregory and Anthony, be so blasé about women staying in the army camp?It was because in their opinion, women staying in the army camp was not a big deal.However, the opposite sex was never allowed to stay in conventional forces!Dorodo belonged to the City-State Union. Although it was under Dragon Kingdom's control, management was too lenient. Was that why the military discipline was so lax?"Are there women in the base?"Sean asked solemnly, looking at Gregory and Anthony.Gregory's eyelids twitched, and Anthony's expression turned ghastly.However, they did not lie and nodded together."Yes, there are women in the base.""What's going on? Gregory, explain!"Sean chided, his tone turning harsh.Looking at the solemn-looking Sean, who was exuding anger, Gregory said after a moment of hesitation, "It... It's like this. It's been over a month since Commander Jokerman brought his wife to live in the army camp. Perhaps beca
"You guys know how to enjoy yourself. I've never even brought a woman to an army camp before. If you like enjoying yourselves so much, why are you in the army? Why are you a chiliarch?! Shall I relieve you of your duties and free you to fool around with women?"Sean's scolding made Gregory and Anthony's heads hang lower.After a while, Gregory and Anthony said together, "Commander Lennon, we're sorry. We're willing to be punished."Ronald broke out in a sweat at the sight of it.It was because he was responsible for causing this incident. Sean would not have noticed it if he had not asked his daughter to stay in the army camp.Therefore, Ronald panicked and felt guilty."Commander Lennon, let's just let this go. It's not a big deal. We know how men are..."Sean glanced coldly at Ronald. Ronald instantly winced and shut up."We're soldiers before we're men! Why bother being a soldier if you can't abide by military rules? You should pack up and leave as soon as possible!"Gregor
Hearing George's words, Wesley flew into a rage.He raised his hand to slap George, but he was facing his only son. He did not have the heart to slap him after all."You fool! She's your mother and my wife. She's our family. I can bring her in, of course. And I can bring her here legitimately! But is the woman you brought your family? She's only a prostitute! What will the soldiers think of a centurion bringing a prostitute back to the army camp?"George smacked his lips impatiently before nodding and saying, "Alright, alright, I got it. I'll send her away later. Happy?"Wesley glared at his son George and said nothing more.Just then, an errand runner came running in suddenly."Oh no. Oh no! Commander Jokerman, something's wrong!"The errand runner rushed in and startled Wanda. Wesley shouted unhappily, "What's the hurry? Stand at attention!"The errand runner quickly stood straight.Seeing him calm down, Wesley asked, "What's wrong? What happened?"The errand runner was bre
He was Dorodo's city defense army's disgrace!"Do you admit that you hid this woman in the base?"Sean asked, looking coldly at George.George felt a thump in his heart. He knew he was in trouble.He might have had room for defense if he feigned ignorance upon arrival or even denied that he knew this woman.However, he asked Sean why he captured his woman as soon as he came, admitting his relationship with her and the fact that he hid her in the barracks.In that case, what did he have to defend himself?"Since you have nothing to say, don't blame me for handling you as per the law."Sean turned to look at Zander and asked, "Zander, what's the punishment for hiding a woman in the army for fun and causing a major negative influence?""40 lashes in public and a dishonorable discharge from the army!"Zander replied loudly that the city defense soldiers heard him loud and clear.When Gregory and Anthony heard this, they knew George was going down today.The city defense soldier
Dorodo city defense army's chiliarch, Wesley, never expected himself to kneel before Sean in front of so many people.Was this the same imposing Commander Jokerman?Was this the same Commander Jokerman who terrified Dorodo's criminal underworld forces?Wesley did not look like a chiliarch in command of thousands of men. He looked like an old man who could not fight back!There was slight reluctance on the faces of the soldiers waving their fists and shouting that George should be dealt with seriously earlier.Even Gregory and Anthony had some sympathy in their eyes.The atmosphere changed.However, it did not escape Sean's keen eyes.He wanted to deal with George seriously today and banish the law-breaking rat from Dorodo's city defense army.However, he could only change his mind now."Show mercy? Wesley, do you know what a mistake your son Centurion Jokerman made?"Sean asked darkly.Wesley nodded repeatedly at that. "I know. I know what my son did was wrong, but he knows
"Centurion Jokerman, I won't give you a dishonorable discharge and let you keep your centurion post for your father's sake. But you can't get away with doing such a thing!"Sean then ordered the soldiers holding George down, "Go ahead and beat him 40 times!""Yes!"The city defense soldiers immediately replied in acknowledgment and beat George hard on the back with a long thick plank.They beat him repeatedly with dull thuds.It was accompanied by George's screams!Wesley could not bear to look at him, and his wife Wanda had tears in her eyes as she quickly looked away, unable to look any longer.It was the end of the matter.After returning to the office, Sean sat in his chair and let out a long breath.Zander's expression did not look good.He asked after walking over, "Commander Lennon, isn't today's incident anticlimactic?"What Zander meant by "anticlimactic" was that much was said, but little was done.Sean, Gregory, and Anthony arrested the woman George hid in the ar
Sean's sloppy punishment of George was the only reason they could get away with it.Zander finally understood Sean's intention.It was a ploy!It was a way to control his subordinates!Sean gave Gregory and Anthony such a penetrating look that they both felt the pressure and broke out in a cold sweat.It took a while for the pressure to fade away.Sean's voice rang again in the office."Gregory and Anthony, just because I didn't point out your mistakes today in front of the city defense soldiers doesn't mean I won't hold you accountable! You'd better redeem yourselves by doing good service from now on. Otherwise, I'll handle you two all at once!""Thank you, Commander Lennon!"Gregory and Anthony said together. They were both afraid and respectful of Sean.Gregory and Anthony felt a strong sense of fear.The young man in front of them, who looked like he was only in his twenties, was a tough guy.His every move held great meaning.His arrangement and plans could extend to
Wesley and George had become the latest laughingstock in the army base.When the soldiers had finished their training, they would get together and talk.Wesley and George's reputation also hit rock bottom."Centurions are amazing. He made a mistake that bad and hasn't been stripped of his rank.""He has a good father! Commander Jokerman knelt to plead for his son in front of so many people. The Commander-in-chief had no choice but to cut them some slack.""Wesley and George are a disgrace to Dorodo city defense army. It's ridiculous that these two can still serve as leaders!"Such talk was everywhere.Zander gathered these comments and reported them to Sean."Commander, the soldiers in the army are unhappy with Wesley and his son."Zander said in a deep voice.Sean laughed, nodded, and said, "It's what I expected. Wesley and George's reputations would take a nose-dive after what happened. There must be less than 10% soldiers who still support him and his son.""Indeed."Zan
"Even if you haven't stepped into the legendary Transcendence Realm yet, you're already capable enough to overpower most martial artists! Mr. Lennon, you've possessed such strength at your age. You'll surely enter that legendary realm one day!" Adam exclaimed.He had practiced diligently day after day for decades, yet he was only a Beginner Great Grandmaster. Even so, he was one of the most talented martial artists among several generations of Greendom Chapel members. However, that talent was as different as night and day compared to Sean.Sean was now only in his 20s, yet he already possessed the strength to rival the supreme priest who had passed away.There were no other people as strong as Sean in the entire Dragon Kingdom."Alright, stop flattering me. I'll have someone transfer 500 million to you later. You can use it to improve Greendom Chapel's current situation. When the time comes, I'll accompany you to meet that man from Melode Cathedral," Sean said with a smile as he sh
"Mr. Lennon, you also know how strong that old priest is. We Catholics only have the supreme priest who could rival him. Now that the supreme priest has passed away, that old priest has become even more arrogant..." Sean nodded slightly and sighed before expressing his regret. "It's a pity about the supreme priest.""Human life has its limitations. The path of martial arts is long and arduous. Few people in history have been able to reach the legendary Transcendence Realm." Adam sighed as well. He had already reached Great Grandmaster Realm that countless martial artists dreamed of. Even so, there were opponents he could not defeat and problems he could not solve."Mr. Lennon, since you're willing to leave that calligraphy in Greendom Chapel, you must have some history with Greendom Chapel. I wonder if you can tell me," Adam finally said after a moment of silence.Adam was the former chaplain of Greendom Chapel, but he had gone into seclusion to further advance himself after stepp
A Christian refers to a follower of Jesus Christ who might be a Catholic, Orthodox, Protestant, or follower of another branch of the religion. A Catholic was a Christian who followed the Catholic religion transmitted through the succession of Popes, who were leaders of the Catholic church. Thus, All Roman Catholics were Christian, but not all Christians were Roman Catholic. The difference in beliefs had put the two in conflict."Could it be that their conflict has reignited? Didn't a Catholic priest warn those donkeys?" Sean asked with a frown.Adam nodded slightly and sighed before slowly replying, "It's just as you said. After the passing of Tiger Mountain's supreme priest, Christians often gave us Catholics a hard time. Now, not only are chaplains from all over Dragon Kingdom affected, but even Greendom Chapel has gotten into this situation."Most chaplains and churches relied on donations from their followers for their income. Once they lost this source of income, chaplains and
Meanwhile, a daunting aura rose from the old chaplain.The Brown brothers’ expressions instantly changed, even being forced back three steps by the pressure from the old chaplain before barely stopping.Willow's eyes filled with panic. She felt like she had encountered a mortal enemy and had her life on the line.Sean's gaze focused before he immediately reached out to hold Willow."Cut that intimidating aura out. Who are you trying to scare?" Sean snapped as he looked at the old chaplain.However, the old chaplain's kind demeanor changed. He stared solemnly at Sean and asked, "I'm asking who you are.""Who am I? Is my calligraphy in Greendom Chapel gone?" Sean replied indifferently.The old chaplain froze in place as if struck by lightning."What? The old chaplain is from Greendom Chapel? How is that possible… Greendom Chapel is a nationally renowned holy place. H-How could one of their chaplains be selling counterfeit goods here?" Willow exclaimed. Her hands covered her mouth
The smile on the old chaplain's face instantly froze. He looked awkwardly at Sean and stammered, "L-Look at my age. How could I engage in deceitful acts? God... I've lived a righteous life. I didn't expect to be so misunderstood in my twilight years..."Seeing the old chaplain's pitiful expression, Willow could not help but feel sorry for him.However, Sean looked disdainfully at the old chaplain before saying with a smile, "Sir, perhaps being an actor suits you better than being a chaplain."The old chaplain's acting skills were impeccable. He might even win a prize if he attended some award ceremony. With his white beard and the slightly worn-out robe that had turned somewhat faded, others might indeed mistake Sean for misunderstanding the old chaplain."Sir, you can't say such things! I've lived an honest life. You can't just tarnish my reputation!" The old chaplain pleaded earnestly, looking at Sean.Ignoring the old chaplain, Sean picked up a vase from the stall before him. W
Sean glanced at Elton and Bernie beside him and said with a smile. Elton and Bernie scratched their heads awkwardly and beamed. "After we finish browsing Antiques Street, let's head to the new company office together and get acquainted with it. At least we won't end up not knowing where our company is in the future."Daniel and his brothers immediately nodded.Then, the group continued to stroll through Antiques Street. However, Antiques Street had been around for so many years, and each stall was run by shrewd peddlers, who made it increasingly difficult to find hidden treasures.Even with Sean's keen eye, he had not come across a genuine antique after strolling through Antiques Street for so long. All he saw were counterfeit antiques that looked authentic.After another ten minutes or so, Sean suddenly stopped in his tracks.Not far away, an old man with white hair in a black robe opened up a large bag of items and placed the items on the ground. He then took out a small sto
Willow held Sean's arm, her face filled with happiness.Sean scanned the surroundings of the street stalls with a smile, searching for genuine antiques. The Brown brothers quietly followed Sean. With the Brown brothers standing behind Sean like bodyguards, the street peddlers who had heard about suckers in Antiques Street were now hesitant to make any sudden moves."Mr. Lennon, I heard this place is full of scammers. You wouldn't want to ruin your reputation here," Daniel reminded with a chuckle.Sean glanced at him and replied flatly, "Come on. Would my reputation be ruined in such a small place? Check out the two little trinkets Willow bought for only 500 dollars. If we auction them off, I can make at least 20 million dollars!"Daniel and his brothers paused and turned to look at the hairpin and the ring Willow was holding.Seeing the three men interested in the items, Willow stopped and handed the hairpin and ring to Daniel. "Feel free to take a look."Since they were Sean's
It was normal to pay others for their service. Sean only gave them 10 thousand dollars when he had made 20 million dollars a while ago. Ten thousand was just a drop in the bucket. Daniel and his brothers swiftly made their way through Antiques Street, soon spotting Sean and Willow. Sensing someone approaching, Sean immediately turned around to look. Sean smiled when he saw the Brown brothers."Mr. Lennon! Mrs. Lennon!" Daniel and his brothers greeted respectfully when they arrived before Sean and Willow. Willow felt slightly embarrassed at being called "Mrs. Lennon" and only nodded slightly before looking elsewhere. Sean nodded with a smile. Fortunately, this part of Antiques Street was relatively isolated with few people around. Otherwise, Daniel and his brothers' sudden appearance would attract attention."Mr. Lennon, you spotted us from so far away. Your abilities are admirable!" Daniel lamented.Sean shook his head with a smile and said flatly, "Martial arts is all a
"Don't be offended. Mr. Lennon also instructed us to watch over these three guys here," Bobby answered with a smile, not mentioning that they were hired earlier to mess with Sean for 3 thousand dollars.The four men standing before them were burly and not easy to mess with. Bobby would not foolishly tell them he had tried to trouble Sean."Is that so? How can we be sure you're not associated with these two?" Daniel asked hostilely as he raised his eyebrows skeptically.Bobby and his henchmen's expressions immediately changed, fear evident in their eyes. Bobby quickly pulled out his phone, showed the transaction record of Sean's payment, and said, "Look, look! This is the record of the money Mr. Lennon just wired me!"Zander glanced at it, confirming the identities of the three men in front of him as the same ones Sean had mentioned on the phone."I'll take these two back to the company. You three can find Mr. Lennon and help him out with any troubles," Zander said solemnly.Dan
