Salute To The General

In Divine Palace, numerous guards and servants were bustling about, preparing for the banquet that evening.

Hepburn was also present at the scene, personally giving instructions.

That night, God King hosted a banquet for the Four Emperors, representatives from various clans of Divine Realm, and notable figures. Thus, there was absolutely no room for any mistakes at the feast. While Hepburn was instructing everyone on how to decorate the banquet venue, a tall figure emerged suddenly in the distance.

He was clad in a black shirt paired with black trousers. Instead of the usual leather shoes, he wore a pair of black combat boots.

Hepburn's eyes lit up, thinking it was Nathan who had arrived.

However, she soon realized that it was not Nathan but Max.

She couldn't help but slightly furrow her brows.

The reason was that Nathan had always favored wearing black shirts and black trousers. Pairing them with black combat boots, he appeared neat and sharp.

However, she hadn't expected Max to inexplicably emulate Nathan's style of dress. What is he up to?

"Your Majesty!"

Max came over, greeting Hepburn with a warm smile.

Hepburn gave a slight nod, her tone indifferent as she asked, "Is there something you need?"

Max chuckled. "Hehe, must I always have a reason to see you?"

The tone didn't resemble one between a superior and a subordinate. Instead, it felt more like the tone used between friends or close acquaintances. Hepburn lifted her head, giving Max a cold, indifferent stare.

Max hailed from a prestigious family and was a prodigy from a young age. Before he became a member of the vampires, he was a five-star general of a powerful human nation. He could be considered a person who had weathered many storms.

But now, under Hepburn's clear and icy gaze, he quickly found it a bit too much to bear and began feeling somewhat embarrassed.

He coughed awkwardly in an effort to defuse the tension. "Actually, I came to report to you, Your Majesty, that I've dealt with the traitors as ordered by His Majesty, God King." When the topic of work came up, Hepburn's face brightened a bit.

She said, "It seems you've raided the homes of all the traitors and killed quite a few of their families. Your drastic actions might upset His Majesty."

Max then said, "No, I believe we should not show any mercy to the traitors. We need to teach them a

harsh lesson, to make an ex Hie

out of them for others to see. His Majesty surely knows that I'm not a person with a soft heart, which why he entrusted this task to me. I believe he agrees with my actions and wouldn't blame me. Otherwise, he would have sent someone to stop me earlier."

Upon hearing this, Hepburn was taken aback.

Every ruler has his benevolent ministers, as well as those who are vicious. Benevolent ministers help the king manage his kingdom, while the vicious ones take on the tasks that the king finds inconvenient to do himself. Could it be that Nathan is deliberately using Max as his right-hand man to carry out his dirty jobs?

Hepburn was a bit uncertain.

When her gaze fell upon Max, she coldly said, "His Majesty might be aware of how harshly you dealt with the traitors, but does he know that when you and your subordinates executed the Gods, you collected their Blueblood and secretly held blood feasts?" Max was taken aback by the words.

Taking advantage of the situation,

Hepburn chided Max, "Divine Realm now belongs to His Majesty. The Gods have surrendered to the God King, so they too are his subjects.

Even though you served the Godnetnoveldrama

King well, it's best not to play with fire. Slaughtering Gods and O Blueblood is forbidden by the God King himself. I've turned a blind eye to some of your actions, but I hope you know where your limit is. Otherwise, if the God King finds out, I won't be able to protect you then!"

Max lowered his head. "Understood!"

Hepburn had assumed that Max was already scared and was considering sending him back to reflect on his actions.

Unexpectedly, Max quietly interjected, "I admit to drinking Blueblood, but as far as I know, didn't you also collect a bottle of Blueblood when you had Hodges beheaded today?" Hepburn was taken aback.

Max gave her a wry smile. You accuse me of breaking the rules by drinking the Blueblood, but aren't you doing the same? Let's not point fingers at each other!

Hepburn was both anxious and angry.

However, it was impossible for her to explain.

After all, the vial of Blueblood was something she had secretly prepared for Nathan as a precaution for unforeseen needs.

She couldn't explain without revealing the secret of Nathan's severe injury.

However, if she didn't explain, Max would believe that she too had consumed the Blueblood.
