“What’s going on?” Harold Flower turned and asked.
“Young Master, they should be people from SHADOW!” The black-robed old woman pointed at the Cold Moon Saber in Soul Chaser’s hand. “That’s SHADOW’s exclusive Cold Moon Saber, with a platinum handle. He should be one of SHADOW’s five envoys!”
“Hmm?” Hearing her words, Harold Flower’ pupils slightly contracted. What made him wary was evidently not Soul Chaser, this envoy of SHADOW. He had long noticed that Billy was the spokesperson among this group, and the fact that a SHADOW envoy accompanied him led him to the answer.
After hearing the old woman’s words, not only did Harold Flower appear surprised, but a touch of shock also emerged on the faces of many people around him. Those who knew about SHADOW understood that above the five envoys was the legendary figure-King of the West, the Lord of SHADOW, Commander Gardner!
They never expected that Commander Gardner would actually come here!
“So it’s you?” At this moment, Brooke Nunez stepped forward from the crowd. He had guessed Billy’s identity.
“Brooke, do you know him? Who is he?” Salena asked with a hint of confusion, noticing the solemnity on her brother’s and Harold Flower’ faces.
“King of the West, Commander Gardner!” Brooke Nunez responded in a deep voice.
“Ah?!” Salena exclaimed, a look of fear flashing in her eyes. She never expected that the person in front of her was this guy. She had heard that not long ago, Ruthless Lordling, one of the Eight Martial Prodigies, was killed by Commander Gardner with a single slash!
And now, here she was, repeatedly threatening to take care of him. She must be out of her mind.
“He’s actually Commander Gardner?!” Rowan Wheatly, who followed behind Stout, was equally shocked. Although he had some mental preparation, thinking that Billy’s identity must be prestigious, he never thought it would be to this extent.
At the same time, a sigh of astonishment spread through the onlookers.
The name of a person carried weight, and the words “Commander Gardner” were not only prestigious in the secular world but also had a great deterrent effect in the martial arts world!
Many people, while shocked, also felt puzzled.
Lord Ruthless Lordling died at the hands of King of the West, and now he came to the Douglas family so openly. Wasn’t he afraid of retaliation from the Douglas family?
“It turns out that King of the West has come. For any negligence, please forgive us!” At this moment, Erasmus Douglas, the eldest elder of the Douglas family, led a group of Douglas family members over with an unpleasant expression.
Behind him, everyone, including Vivian Douglas, showed a trace of indignation on their faces, and a strong killing intent emanated from many people.
For them, even though Ruthless Lordling had long been expelled from the Douglas family, the blood flowing in him was still that of the Douglas family. King of the West killing Ruthless Lordling made him an enemy of the Douglas family.
This enmity must be avenged!
“Oh, look at your posture. Are you ready to besiege?” Stout glanced at the other side.
“I don’t know why King of the West, Commander Gardner, graces our Douglas family. What business brings you here?” Erasmus Douglas ignored Stout and continued to address Billy in a deep voice.
“Let’s talk about your business first!” Billy glanced at Erasmus Douglas and then looked at Harold Flower.
“I wonder what guidance you have for us!” Harold Flower took a deep breath before speaking in a deep voice.
“I’ll give you a chance to voluntarily abolish your cultivation. You can save your life!” Billy casually spoke.
“Commander Gardner, are you overestimating yourself?” Harold Flower showed a disdainful expression. “Ruthless Lordling was killed by you, and the Douglas family won’t let it go. Silent Mirage Duke is now the prospective son-in-law of the Douglas family, and he will not stand idly by!”
“Plus, people from my Hundred Flowers Sect. Do you think you have any chance of winning?”
Indeed, one of the Eight Martial Prodigies had a good level of sophistication! As soon as he spoke, he pulled the people from Silent Mirage Sect and the Douglas family to his side.
“Not willing to take action yourself?” Billy glanced at him. “Then let me do it for you! However, when I make a move, it won’t be to abolish your cultivation but to take your life for those women you’ve harmed!” As he spoke, a powerful oppressive force emanated from him.
“Commander Gardner, Flowers Prince is a distinguished guest of our Douglas family. If you want to deal with him, you have to ask whether our Douglas family agrees!” Erasmus Douglas frowned slightly, then turned his gaze to Vivian Douglas.
Upon hearing his words, a strong momentum erupted from the Douglas family members simultaneously.
“We’ve heard about King of the West, Commander Gardner, as an extraordinary talent rarely seen in a thousand years. Today, we have the honor to learn from you!” Brooke Nunez also spoke at the same time. The white-haired old man behind him also stood up, surrounded by a swirling aura, and an intense killing intent pervaded.
“More people, huh?” Stout then turned to Soul Chaser in a somewhat respectful manner.
“Soul Chaser, call Vermilion Bird boss, let him deploy the 500, 000 Army of Bloodshadow and surround the border city for me!”
“Okay!” Soul Chaser cooperatively took out his phone.
“Huh?” Hearing their conversation, Erasmus Douglas frowned slightly, and others also showed a trace of fear on their faces.
Not to mention 500, 000 Army of Bloodshadow; even if it was 50, 000, it could crush the Douglas family.
“King of the West, Flowers Prince came to the border town at the invitation of our Douglas family this time.” Erasmus Douglas took a deep breath and continued, “If you insist on acting recklessly, even if our Douglas family knows we’re not opponents, we will still stop your blade!”
“Otherwise, if this news spreads, our Douglas family won’t be able to guarantee the safety of guests in the future. How will our Douglas family face the world?”
“Boss, should we call Vermilion Bird?” Soul Chaser held his phone and asked Billy.
“For a small Douglas family, there’s no need to mobilize Glavale’s battle group!” Billy replied. With that said, he looked at Erasmus Douglas and said, “If the Douglas family insists on protecting him?”
“I’ve said that Flowers Prince is a distinguished guest of our Douglas family…” Erasmus Douglas breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing Billy’s words.
“Since that’s the case, let me see what your Douglas family has to protect him!” Billy interrupted him.
“Stout, bring the blade!”
“Okay!” Stout responded, handing the Bloodshadow Fury Knife in his hand to Billy.
“Since you’re so unkind, then let’s offend you!” Erasmus Douglas took another deep breath and drew out his own sword.
Members of Silent Mirage Sect and Hundred Flowers Pavilion also unsheathed their weapons at the same time.
“Miss, you don’t need to participate. Take Miss Nunez and withdraw a kilometer away!” Erasmus Douglas then looked at Vivian Douglas and said.
“Okay!” Vivian Douglas nodded after a moment of thought. Although she wanted to avenge her brother, she was well aware that facing such a powerful figure as the King of the West, she would only become a burden to the elders if she stayed.
“Miss Nunez, let’s go!” Vivian Douglas said, leading Salena to retreat.
People around also retreated to a kilometer away. Everyone knew how terrifying the destructive power of a Sovereign Realm expert could be. The premise of watching the excitement was to save their own lives.
“Stout, Soul Chaser, you two also step back!” Billy instructed.
