“Where you going? Stay here!” Just then, Casey’s voice echoed, followed by an arcing blade aura carrying the force of thunder shooting towards the opponent.
“Get away!” The leader of Hundred Flowers Sect frowned, raising her hand to sweep out a violent gust of wind.
After the two forces collided, Casey quickly stepped back five or six steps to stabilize himself. Although he had just broken through to the early stage of a War God-Emperor, under the activation of the Bloodshadow Blade Technique, he naturally could withstand the opponent’s attack.
At the same time, the leader of Hundred Flowers Sect was also pushed back seven or eight steps, her face showing a trace of surprise. Just as she regained her composure, a suffocating killing intent enveloped her. All the pores on her body opened, and her pupils shrank to the size of needlepoints.
She knew Billy had caught up.
Then, without any hesitation, she quickly leaped to the side. As her figure leaped away, an icy blade aura flashed from her right leg’s knee, and a lower leg fell straight to the ground, blood spraying like a fountain.
“Ah…” Darell Flower heavily falling to the ground, cried out in pain, her face contorted.
“Boss!” Casey walked over to Billy.
“You broke through so quickly?” Billy smiled and asked.
“All thanks to the spiritual fruits from the Ink Pavilion, otherwise, it wouldn’t have been so fast!” Casey replied with a smile.
“Not bad!” Billy smiled again and asked, “Have you dealt with everyone else from the two sects?”
“Yeah! All taken care of!” Casey nodded. After a brief pause, he continued, “Boss, when Azure Dragon and I were in town earlier, we noticed something unusual about a group of people.”
“Be more specific!” Billy raised an eyebrow.
“We were near the west gate of the town, and we sensed several strong auras moving quickly. So, we followed them. We followed them to the outskirts of the west gate and found eight men carrying a pitch-black coffin entering a nearby primitive forest. The skills of those eight men are not weak. Four of them are at the War God-Emperor’s initial stage, and the other four are at the War Emperor’s complete stage. Judging from their hurried appearance, there must be something extraordinary inside that coffin!”
“Oh?” Billy raised an eyebrow again. “Do you know their destination?”
“We followed them to the edge of that forest because we were concerned about the situation here. We didn’t go inside.” Casey responded.
“If eight people with such skills are protecting something, it must be extraordinary!” Billy thought for a moment and instructed, “Don’t worry about what’s happening here. Take Azure Dragon and the others to investigate that forest!”
“Understood!” Casey nodded before turning to leave.
“Boss!” At this moment, Bob Stokes and Ian Blade had arrived.
Billy nodded slightly. “Are you two alright?”
“We’re fine!” both of them shook their heads.
“How should we deal with this woman? Should I kill her?” Ian pointed to the fallen leader of Hundred Flowers Sect.
“Kill her!” Billy replied indifferently.
“Don’t… don’t kill me. I’m willing to submit.” Darell Flower said desperately.
“As long as Commander Gardner spares my life, from now on, all members of Hundred Flowers Sect will respect you. Any tasks assigned by Commander Gardner, we will not refuse… Please, spare me…”
“Sorry, you don’t have the qualifications to submit!” Ian coldly interrupted her, “Go down and accompany your son!”
As he spoke, he raised his wrist, ready to strike and behead her.
“Stop!” At that moment, the voice of an elder rang out, and a man in his fifties quickly rushed over.
Simultaneously, a violent wave of energy swept towards Casey like a hurricane.
“Ian, retreat!”
Billy’s pupils shrank slightly. He took a few steps forward, raised his hand, and swept out a palm.
Boom!
A muffled sound echoed, and Billy was pushed back four or five steps. The middle-aged man also retreated several steps. Immediately after, a chaotic sound of footsteps reached their ears, and hundreds of men and women quickly surrounded them. Each of them exuded an aura that clearly showed they were not ordinary people.
“Tsk tsk, another group of daredevils!” At this moment, Stout’s voice rang out, followed by him and Night Orchid and the others walking over.
“Commander Gardner?” a middle-aged man glanced at Stout before looking at Billy.
“You’re from Heartbreak Valley?” Billy calmly asked, “Introduce yourself.”
“Greetings , Commander Gardner, I am Revenge, Heartbreak Valley’s Guild Master!” The middle-aged man bowed.
“You have quite a distinctive name!” Stout cursed.
“Fool, how dare you talk to Guild Master like that. Kneel!” A one-eyed man behind Revenge angrily shouted.
“Shut up!” Revenge scolded. Then, he looked at Billy again and said, “Commander Gardner, you may have misunderstood. I was handling other matters before receiving the news and rushed over.” After a slight pause, he continued, “I wonder why Commander Gardner has come to Heartbreak Valley. May I inquire about the purpose of your visit?”
“Do you want to protect her?” Billy didn’t respond to his words, pointing at the fallen leader of Hundred Flowers Sect.
“Guild Master Revenge, as long as you can spare my life, from now on, Hundred Flowers Sect will be the ally of Heartbreak Valley! In any troubles Heartbreak Valley encounters, we will support it with the full strength of the sect!”
“Commander Gardner, there are rules set in Heartbreak Valley. Except for life-and-death duels, no one is allowed to kill within the valley.” Said Revenge, ignoring Darell Flower and continuing to address Billy.
“You’ve already killed dozens of them. I kindly ask Commander Gardner to consider my request and cease this here.”
“In case Commander Gardner insists on taking her life, you can wait until she leaves Heartbreak Valley before taking action. I will not interfere.”
“If I must kill her here?” Billy continued to ask.
“That would make it difficult for me!” Revenge responded.
“You really think highly of yourself, huh?” Bob sneered, “Commander Gardner said he wants to kill her; she won’t leave here alive. If you keep babbling, you’ll be killed together!”
“Impudent!” The one-eyed man shouted again. “Do you think Heartbreak Valley is your backyard, where you can do as you please?”
