Elder Cobb wanted to end the battle quickly, so he immediately unleashed his strongest move. In the next moment, a huge imperial momentum shadow stirred the void, causing a violent wind and a majestic aura, giving the impression that a storm was imminent.
However, to his slight surprise, facing his full-force attack, Billy didn’t even activate his own War God-Emperor momentum. He just held the knife, and several blood-red knife lights emerged to meet the attack.
Seeing this scene, it seemed like Billy took him as a sparring partner.
“You’re overestimating yourself!” The old man snorted coldly. Then, the powerful God-Emperor momentum with a shocking force attacked Billy.
Bang!
The several knife lights that Billy unleashed were directly knocked aside by Elder Cobb’s momentum. Elder Cobb swiftly slid back a hundred meters. His blood surged, and his breath was unusually chaotic.
“Hmm?” Seeing Billy acting as if nothing had happened, the old man couldn’t help but shrink his pupils.
“Interesting, come again!” Billy ignored the old man’s surprise, and, holding the mad knife, he exerted his full force to attack again.
“Alright.” The old man adjusted his emotions and set up a posture to meet the attack.
Shortly after, the two engaged in a fierce battle.
Because the old man had just displayed his War God-Emperor momentum, his Chi energy hadn’t recovered so quickly. Therefore, he could only rely on his ordinary God-Emperor realm martial techniques to fight against Billy.
In no time, a vortex of air with a diameter of a hundred meters enveloped the two. Where the vortex passed, everything was crushed. Two adjacent buildings and a row of trees were shattered, and dust filled the air.
Bang!
After exchanging blows for about ten rounds, a loud noise echoed in the sky above the courtyard. Then, the two opponents each retreated about forty to fifty meters.
“Alright, that’s enough. Stop here!” Billy stabilized his figure and looked at the opponent, calmly speaking, “Since you don’t want to cripple your cultivation, let me send you on your way.”
“Arrogant!” The old man frowned, and his aura continued to rise. Once again, he activated the War God-Emperor momentum.
“Bloodshadow Blade, Heavens Incinerating!” Billy spoke with a deep voice, flipping his wrist and instantly condensing the imperial momentum.
Following that, a shadow of a blade, like a lightning bolt from the horizon, slashed down with a majestic aura.
Boom!
A thunderous roar spread across the sky above the courtyard. The powerful shockwaves rapidly shook the surroundings, and a segment of the wall about several hundred meters away collapsed.
Simultaneously, the old man spewed out a large mouthful of blood, flying a hundred meters away before crashing into the ground. His face turned pale, and blood gushed from his mouth.
Billy’s current cultivation had already stepped into the perfection realm. With a full-force attack, he was more than enough to crush a half-step Sovereign.
“How can you be so strong?” After crawling out of the pit, Elder Cobb, looking at Billy, couldn’t help but show a shocked expression.
At this moment, he vaguely believed Billy’s previous words. The three who ambushed Billy that night might have died at Billy’s hands. He could sense that, even now, Billy hadn’t fully exerted his strength during their battle. If Billy had used all his cards, killing a true Sovereign realm powerhouse wouldn’t be impossible.
In response to his thoughts, Billy once again slashed out a curved blade light. The cold light flashed, and the aura was chilling.
“Hmm?” The old man immediately felt a suffocating sense of death enveloping him.
With self-awareness, given his current condition, he couldn’t withstand this strike. Without thinking much, he quickly dodged to the side.
The blood-red blade light cut across the hard ground, leaving a deep trench. The residual shock waves lifted the old man, who hadn’t completely stabilized his figure, dozens of meters away.
“Elder Cobb?!”
The old woman who was fighting with Ivy from a distance shouted in pain at this sight. She didn’t hesitate and immediately ran towards the adjacent wall. She was at the same level as Elder Cobb, and now that she saw him being sliced into two halves by Billy, her heart was filled with shock and fear. She no longer had the slightest desire to fight.
“Can you escape?” The words entered her ear, followed by a bolt of thunderous sword energy that shot towards her back.
“You’re asking for death!” The old woman turned around and swept several gusts of wind to block the sword energy.
However, much to her surprise, a blood-red blade sliced through the empty space from a distance of a thousand meters, coming for her with an overwhelming presence. She was about to try to block it, but then she realized that if she did, Ivy would undoubtedly attack at the same time. There was no time to think, so she quickly dodged to the side.
The blood-red blade gouged a deep trench in the hard ground, and the residual wave knocked the old woman who hadn’t fully steadied herself several meters away.
Just as she was getting up to continue running, an icy cold sensation descended upon her, causing her pupils to constrict with coldness. Before she could fully react, a substantial sword energy passed through her back, leaving a fist-sized wound in her chest. She stumbled forward a few steps before falling face down, with a gush of blood flowing out from her body.
“Ivy, how are you doing? Are you all right?” Billy walked over with a steady pace.
“Thank you for caring, Billy. I’m fine,” Ivy turned her head and smiled slightly.
“Not bad!” Billy smiled in response.
Ivy’s ability to fight against a half-step Sovereign master for so long exceeded his expectations. He knew that Ivy’s biggest trump card hadn’t been played yet. Otherwise, the old woman would have been lying on the ground already.
“Hahaha, as long as I didn’t embarrass you! ” Ivy smiled playfully.
After that, both of them walked over to the old woman’s side, just a few meters away. The old woman, with her upper body dyed red with blood and her overall vitality greatly weakened, had a desperate look in her eyes. The wound in her chest inflicted by Ivy’s sword had already penetrated through her heart; it was only by luck that she could still draw breath.
“Give me a quick death,” the old woman looked up at Billy with difficulty. She knew her situation; it was already too late for her to be saved.
“Answer me a few questions first,” Billy said indifferently. As he spoke, he flipped his wrist and several silver needles flew out, disappearing into the old woman’s chest, momentarily stabilizing her heart.
“What do you want to know?” The old woman asked after a momentary surprise.
“The status of your two in Sky-Quaking Daoist Sect shouldn’t be low, right? What are your specific identities?” Billy asked.
“I am the fourth elder of the sect… Cobb is the third elder…” The old woman replied.
“You should know about what happened to the Ray family, right?” Billy looked into her eyes and asked.
“How… How do you know?”
