Less than ten seconds had passed after that phone call before a dozen guards burst into the room, each holding a gun in their hands. All of them aimed their pitch-black barrels at Nash.
Colby roared, “This man is an assassin sent by foreign forces. I command you to execute him instantly!” The guards released the safety pin and pulled the trigger on their guns with a moment's hesitation.
Everyone in City Hall was startled when the gunshots rang out.
Inside the break room, Drew and Cobalt immediately shot to their feet and sprang to stand in front of Kaden protectively.
Tristan had a rueful look on his face. "Nash is probably the reason why a shooting occurred in City Hall, right?" An ugly look appeared on Kaden's face. "Go find out what happened... Never mind, I'll go look for myself!" Gunshots had never rang out within City Hall's walls since its establishment.

Drew and the others hurried after him.
Inside the governor's office, the dozen guards inside stared at Nash, flabbergasted.
All the bullets they had shot had been fended off by an invisible barrier.
Colby's face turned as pale as a sheet of paper as he said in a horrified voice, “He's a martial artist. You'll need to use specialized weapons!" Upon hearing that, three of the guards immediately retrieved the specialized weapons designed to fight martial artists from the leather pouches fastened to their waists.
These were products patented by the Military Research and Development Center, and they could effectively shatter a martial artist's true energy shield.
However, they only worked against those who had lower levels of cultivation.
Just as the three were about to fire the specialized laser guns, a roar rang out. "Stop this instant!" Kaden stormed into the room, a furious look on his face as he swept his stern gaze over the guards. "Such bravado from all of you. How dare you shoot the commander of the Celestial Dragon Squadron?" "C-Commander of the Celestial Dragon Squadron?" The chief guard shuddered and nearly dropped his gun despite having years of training under his belt. The other guards also felt terror wash over them, and their hearts began pounding.
That young man was the commander of the Celestial Dragon Squadron? Had Colby lost his marbles? However, how could Nash be the commander of the Celestial Dragon Squadron when he looked even younger than they were? Kaden's eyes reddened, and his hands shook as he stepped forth to take Nash's hands. "Nash, are you alright?" Nash could tell that Kaden was et genuinely worried about him, and a warm fuzzy feeling washed over him as he smiled. "None of these weapons can hurt me!" Content belongs to en.kikistoriesKaden swept his gaze over Nash several more times and heaved a sigh of relief upon confirming that Nash was not injured. Then, he glared at Colby and shouuseless bastard! This is the end of your career!" Content belongs to en.kikistoriesColby had an incredulous look on his face. "General Copper, a-are you sure he's the commander of the Celestial Dragon Squadron?" Cobalt said in a low voice, "He indeed is the commander of the Celestial Dragon Squadron!" Drew had heard of Nash's name, but he had never met Nash in person. Now, an astonished look appeared in his eyes as he turned to look at Nash.
The man his great-grandfather constantly brought up in conversation was younger than he was! A jeering look appeared on Tristan's face, and his mood beceven better when he caught sight of the palm imprint on Colby's cheek.
For the past couple of years, Capiton's GDP had remained stagnant.
Munford and Antaria had gone through so much development that they practically were as well-developed as Capiton was now.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCapiton was where the Ten Families had set their roots.
There was no doubt that Capiton was in its current state as a result of Colby resting on his laurels and doing nothing. Colby enjoyed flaunting his power as well, and no one was spared from him. Content belongs to en.kikistoriesHe was going to get a lesson taught to him today, though.
However, few people could actually cause any harm to Colby since he had the Petro family's power backing him up.
