Was he the man who came looking for Ashton just now ? " " That's him !

" " Oh my God ! He really is Ashton's friend after all ! " " And such a powerful one too ! " At this point , Louie was even more determined than ever to associate himself with Ashton . He wished that he had a few more people like Sally at his disposal so that he could offer somebody different to him every single time ! Cadence Suther , the president of the Gale Assembly , was also shocked beyond belief . Up until just a while ago , he had only been respectful toward Ashton purely based on Ashton's cultivation realm .

But now , after seeing the ruthless Northern Troops - the very same troops who could wipe out the Gale Assembly in a flash - here for Ashton , Cadence was even more convinced and in awe of him . He also thought he had to find a way to strengthen his relationship with Ashton . A short while later , Sylvia also arrived at the scene while sweating profusely .

" Don't worry about it , Ms. Langley . I believe that Mr. Gray will be released in a very short while , " Gene said . " Really ? " Sylvia asked , wiping away the cold sweat on her forehead .

When Kyle and Calvin entered the cell , they realized in shock that the martial arts experts sent in to force Ashton Chapter 144 +25 Bonus to sign the confession were all defeated and lying on the ground while howling in pain . It was quite a painful sight . " Ashton Gray ! How dare you use violence against the law ? That's another crime added to your list !

Meanwhile , Kyle picked up the confession document on the ground and saw that Ashton still hadn't signed it . He immediately frowned and said , " Why are you still pointlessly resisting like this? If you signed this document , it would be considered a confession . And you'll get a lighter sentence when the judge convicts you of your crimes ! " Listen to me and just sign this paper , okay ? It just makes things easier for both of us ! " " I did not commit any of those crimes . Why should I need to sign them ? " Ashton asked , glancing briefly at Kyle and Calvin .

He then burst out laughing and asked , " Judging from how panicked both of you are acting , I'm guessing that something major has happened , right ? " " Ashton Gray ! Don't you dare think that you're invincible and nobody can do anything to you ! We have countless martial arts experts in the station ! We have plenty of other ways to make you do this ! We just don't want things to get too ugly ! " Kyle hollered , raising his hand . Ten more experts arrived and walked into the cell , their eyes on Ashton as hostile looks crossed their faces .
