“You seem pretty confident!” Billy sneered. He turned to Casey and issued a solemn command, “Casey, have Gene Hoo lead you to find all the people sent by Sky-Quaking Daoist Sect to the Ancient City!”
“Boss, what after we find them?” Ian quickly asked.
“Sky-Quaking Daoist Sect intends to assassinate the ministers of the War Department and the Cabinet. No mercy for anyone!” Casey spoke with a stern tone without waiting for Billy’s response.
“Understood!” Azure Dragon and the others responded.
“Hmm?” Elder Cobb’s pupils slightly contracted, and the old woman’s face also changed immediately.
With this serious accusation, the people from Sky-Quaking Daoist Sect who came to the Ancient City this time might be in real danger.
With this charge, even if all their people on this side were killed, they wouldn’t be able to argue with the capital.
“Go!” Billy waved his hand.
“Got it!” The group responded again, turning and walking toward the gate of the courtyard.
“You’re seeking death!” The old woman scolded sharply, simultaneously flashing and attacking the group. Her aura burst forth, and her cultivation level was on par with her companion, at the half-step Sovereign Realm.
“Death is for you!” Ivy had targeted her early on, shouting as she swung her sword, sending several cold glows towards the opponent.
“Get out of my way!” The old woman never took Ivy seriously, sending several vigorous gusts of wind towards Ivy’s sword glow.
Bang!
After a fierce clash, Ivy was pushed back seven or eight steps, with slightly disturbed breath. At the same time, the old woman also retreated three or four steps, a hint of surprise on her face, evidently not expecting Ivy to force her back several steps.
While the two were engaged in battle, Casey and the others had already disappeared outside the door.
“Damn it!” The old woman scolded, and at the same time, her figure flashed, attacking the group again.
“With me here, you can’t go anywhere unless you can defeat me!” Ivy’s voice sounded, and two sword glows, each a hundred meters long, stabbed towards the old woman.
“If you’re so eager to die, I’ll grant your wish!” The old woman furrowed her brows, dodging to the side after retreating thirty to forty meters and pulling out a long whip from her body.
Immediately, her wrist turned continuously, and the long whip hit the air, making a piercing sound.
“Die!” The next moment, the old woman shouted loudly.
Several strong waves of energy converged into one, like a solidified steel whip, sweeping towards Ivy.
“You’re shameless!” Ivy’s delicate eyebrows slightly frowned. Underestimating the power of the opponent’s move, the strong waves pushed her back dozens of meters. Her breath was slightly chaotic, and her face appeared somewhat pale.
“Not bad, still standing!” The old woman’s wrist whip moved in again. “Take this!”
As she spoke, she raised her hand and waved the whip again.
At this moment, Ivy’s wrists flipped over in a flurry. A barrage of silver needles were shot towards the old woman like raindrops. The old woman frowned and didn’t dare to be careless. As she raised her hand to sweep away the whip’s wind, she also dodged to the side.
“Watch out, Ivy. Don’t linger in the fight, just delay her!” Billy looked in Ivy’s direction and gave instructions.
“Billy, don’t worry!” Ivy replied and once again plunged into the intense battle with the old woman.
Just as Billy turned to look at Ivy, the elderly man flashed towards the gate of the courtyard. The target was obvious, Casey and the others. He was well aware that with Casey’s team’s skills, the remaining members of the Sky-Quaking Daoist Sect in the Ancient City couldn’t stand a chance.
If Casey and the others really intended to kill, those people would have no chance of survival.
“Since you’ve come, why leave in such a hurry? Stay!”
Elder Cobb hadn’t run a hundred meters yet when Billy’s voice reached his ears. At the sound of Billy words, a curved blade glow swept out, making a whistling sound, unstoppable.
“Commander Gardner, you better not force me!” After sensing the imminent crisis behind him, Elder Cobb coldly said, turning around and sending two gusts of wind to block the blade glow.
“I’ve said that after tonight, all the people sent by Sky-Quaking Daoist Sect to the Ancient City will die!” Billy stood still, continuing to speak.
“So, for you, there are two choices! First, reveal all your cards and fight me with all you’ve got!”
“If you’re lucky, there might be a slim chance of survival. Of course, this hope is very faint!”
“Second, abandon your cultivation and answer a few questions for me. You can save your life, and I’ll give you ten more years of life!”
“Commander Gardner, do you think too highly of yourself!” Elder Cobb sneered. “Even if you can challenge beyond your level, do you think you can defeat me?”
“Those three old things who ambushed me the other night, two of them should be from your Sky-Quaking Daoist Sect, right? You don’t know their cultivation levels?” Billy asked.
“Or do you think your strength surpasses all three of them?” he continued.
“I don’t understand what you’re talking about. Sky-Quaking Daoist Sect has never sent anyone to ambush you!” Elder Cobb’s eyes flashed with a hint of strangeness.
He wouldn’t dare to admit this, even if he had ten times the courage. The capital had made a significant concession by agreeing to host the Dragon and Phoenix Ranking competition. If it were confirmed that Sky-Quaking Daoist Sect had sent someone to ambush Commander Gardner before the competition, he knew the consequences without thinking.
“It doesn’t matter whether you admit it or not!” Billy casually spoke. “I just want to tell you that among the three old men who ambushed me that night, the strongest one was a true Sovereign Realm powerhouse.”
“But, he didn’t even take a single move from me, so you better think carefully about whether to take action.”
“Commander Gardner, you’re joking!” Elder Cobb laughed. “Although I don’t know who ambushed you that night, I heard that it was because Guzman and Donald arrived in time that you were spared!”
This matter had spread throughout the ancient city that night, so he didn’t think Billy had the strength to contend with a Sovereign Realm expert. Otherwise, even if he had ten times the courage, he wouldn’t dare to come and demand justice from Billy tonight.
“Believe it or not, it’s your business!” Billy spoke indifferently while drawing the Bloodshadow Fury Blade from the side. “Since that’s the case, don’t waste words. Make your move, I’ll use you to sharpen my skills!”
“In that case, as you wish!” Elder Cobb took a deep breath, no longer thinking about chasing Casey and the others. He knew very well that it was unrealistic to leave this courtyard safely without defeating Billy. Moreover, for him, instead of chasing Casey and the others, it would be better to defeat Billy first. Perhaps he could exchange for the lives of the sect’s people.
He exerted his full strength and charged towards Billy.
