“Elder Russell, what’s going on?” The white-haired old man’s face changed drastically.
“We all underestimated the strength of his woman!” Elder Russell took a deep breath and continued, “Miss couldn’t even block her move.”
“How is that possible?” Another old man looked astonished. “She has only been to Ether Mountain for such a short time, and her cultivation has improved so much?!”
From his words, it was evident that they had knowledge of Harleen’s whereabouts.
“Surprised?” Billy said with a faint smile.
In fact, Harleen’s skills were beyond Billy’s expectations as well. He never thought his wife had such power, and her progress was too rapid. Moreover, before Harleen made a move, he faintly sensed an unusual aura from her, something not belonging to her. He wondered what Harleen and Felicia had experienced on Ether Mountain during this period.
“Damn it, this is really damn!” The white-haired old man wore a pained expression. “It’s all my fault! If I had known, I wouldn’t have let Miss take the risk.”
After saying this, he glared fiercely at Billy. “You’re dead. Today, no one can save you!”
“You’re an idiot!” Billy glanced at the swords in the hands of the three men. “Are you from Saint Sky Sword Pavilion?”
In the ancient martial arts world, those with Sovereign-realm skills, especially those proficient in swordsmanship, were mostly from Saint Sky Sword Pavilion.
“Not only did you kill our Junior Sect Master, but now Miss is dead at the hands of your woman. Today, even if you have ten lives, you won’t survive!” The white-haired old man coldly responded, confirming Billy’s guess.
“There’s something I’m curious about!” Billy spoke again nonchalantly. “Since you came all the way to Ozin to settle the score with me, why didn’t you three make a move and instead let your Miss go?”
“Humph! If it weren’t for her insisting on personally avenging Junior Sect Master and making you taste the pain of losing loved ones, do you think your woman would still be alive?” The white-haired old man responded coldly.
“In that case, I should thank her?” Billy smiled lightly. The reason seemed reasonable. As for why the white-haired old man didn’t personally take that woman to assassinate him, it was probably because even if he did, he couldn’t kill Billy with his own strength. So, for him, it was better to wait here for old man to lead Billy here before making a move together.
“Elder Poole, stop talking nonsense with him. Let’s attack together and finish him quickly, or we won’t be able to explain when we go back!” Another old man spoke with a deep voice.
The white-haired old man took a deep breath, drew a ancient sword from his body, and then looked at Billy.
“I heard that Commander Gardner fought five-to-one, killed five Sovereigns in the Ancient City. Today, we’ll verify whether the rumors are true!”
“You’ll see soon!” Billy’s eyes narrowed slightly.
“Alright, don’t hold back, let’s finish this quickly!” The white-haired old man said to his three companions.
“Got it!” The other three old men nodded in response.
In the next moment, the momentum of the four surged out. The white-haired old man was a Second-Rank Sovereign, and the other three were First-Rank Sovereigns.
Soon, the four attacked Billy simultaneously from the southeast, northwest, and the sky. Countless sword shadows filled the sky, obscuring the sun, and the void was filled with incredibly sharp sword intent. Facing the full-force attacks of the four, Billy didn’t dare to be careless. He directly activated the Earth Technique from the Five Elements Secret Art. With his current cultivation level and mental power, the power of the Earth Technique was no longer comparable to the last time he used it in Heartbreak Valley.
As he launched the technique, countless rocks and soil within a radius of two kilometers rushed towards the sword intent of the opponents. The sky was filled with surging Chi, crushing everything in its path.
Next, the sky was filled with explosive sounds as the sword intent dissipated into nothingness. Immediately after, the white-haired old man was struck in the chest by a large rock, spewing a large amount of blood into the air. He flew several hundred meters away, landed on the mountainous terrain, rolled several times, and then slumped down. His sternum was shattered, more exhales than inhales, and it seemed he wouldn’t live much longer. The situations of the other two old men weren’t much better. They were also knocked down to the ground and looked exceptionally weak. One of them had just tried to climb up from the ground when a massive boulder shot toward him. Unable to dodge in time, the elder’s head was crushed into a pulp, and after a burst of blood mist, the headless body fell straight down.
Seeing this scene, the remaining white-haired old man’s pupils shrank, and he no longer had the intention to continue fighting. He darted away. However, he was within the attack range of the Earth Technique. How could he easily escape?
“Can you run?” Billy squinted, and his momentum surged again.
Immediately, the remaining rocks and Chi in the void roared toward the white-haired old man, creating a terrifying scene.
“Huh?!” The elder immediately felt a sense of death enveloping him, his body covered in cold sweat, and a deep terror on his face. He wanted to dodge, but there was nowhere to hide. He could only mobilize his Chi to reinforce his defense. Without much suspense, immense Chi energy and rocks collided with his defensive Chi, instantly tearing it to pieces.
Following that, a massive boulder heavily smashed into his chest. The elder flew two to three hundred meters away, fell to the ground, and struggled to get up for a long time.
After Billy stopped his attack, he also spat out a mouthful of blood, his aura in disarray. With some injuries already on his body, activating such a high-level technique again would naturally result in a backlash. After taking a deep breath, suppressing the surging blood and Chi in his body, he then sat cross-legged on the ground, activating Heart Sutra of the Azure Void to heal.
“Billy!” About a quarter of an hour later, Harleen’s anxious voice came.
Soon, she hurried over.
“Harleen, why are you here? Where’s Tasha?” Billy opened his eyes and stood up.
“Tasha is fine. I let Stout and Judge take her home first.” Harleen shook her head and asked with concern, “Husband, how are you? Are you seriously injured?”
“Don’t worry. I’m fine.” Billy smiled and gave her a reassuring look.
With the effect of Heart Sutra of the Azure Void, in just a quarter of an hour, his injuries had already improved by seventy to eighty percent.
“Who are they?” After checking Billy’s injuries, Harleen saw that there was no major problem and finally let go of her worries.
“People from Saint Sky Sword Pavilion!” Billy replied.
“I killed their junior Sect Master in the Dragon Phoenix Tournament last time, so they specially came to Ozin to take revenge on me.”
“Saint Sky Sword Pavilion!” Harleen’s eyes flashed with a hint of hate. “Do they want to be annihilated?”
