“I haven’t heard of it yet, I reckon Donald would know better.” Answered Cole Wilson.
“Billy, let’s wait for Donald to wake up in a few more hours and ask Donald directly!” Ivy spoke up.
Billy nodded.
Later, Urban Woolery came to the ward. After checking Donald’s injuries, his face was also on the verge of tears. Before leaving, he told Billy that no matter who did this, they must be severely punished.
At midnight, Billy performed acupuncture on Donald once again. As soon as Billy removed the silver needles, a cough sounded, followed by Donald slowly opening his eyes.
“Elder Donald?” Ivy and Night Orchid exclaimed.
Donald nodded slightly and looked at Billy. “Thank you, Lord Dragon…”
He knew that it was Billy who brought him back from the brink of death.
“Don’t speak for now, take these two pills first!” Billy took out two healing pills from the medicine box and handed them to Donald.
“Thank you!” Donald took the pills.
Then, Billy placed his hand on Donald’s chest and infused Chi into Donald’s body to help him quickly digest the medicine. After a while, Donald’s complexion visibly regained its color.
“Lord Dragon, it’s fine now. I feel much better!” Donald nodded at Billy after about ten minutes.
Billy withdrew his hand.
“Thank you again, Lord Dragon!” A few minutes later, Donald sat up from the bed.
“It’s okay!” Billy took the tea from Night Orchid and handed it to Donald. “What exactly happened?”
“The ancient martial arts world is planning rebellion!” Donald spoke in a low voice after taking the tea cup.
“Ever since the Nine Heavenly Calamities descended upon Kun Lun Mountains and you, the Lord Dragon, welcomed them, some small fry in the Ancient Martial World couldn’t sit still.”
“They are worried that the strength of the capital city is becoming increasingly powerful, and it won’t be long before they make a move against the Ancient Martial World.”
“So, they have been plotting and strategizing in recent times.”
“What do they want? Are they planning a rebellion?” Bob asked.
“Yesterday, I received information from my source. It said that representatives from the super sects gathered in City L, and there might be major actions. After receiving the news, I rushed over.” Donald didn’t directly answer Bob’s question.
“After arriving in City L, I disguised myself and infiltrated to gather some information. Just as I suspected, they have big ambitions!”
“What does it mean?” Bob asked again.
“They want to form an alliance in the ancient martial arts world to resist the capital city!” Donald continued.
“Damn! They won’t be happy until they get themselves killed!” Bob frowned.
“Donald, how did you get injured later?” asked Ivy.
“Just as I was about to leave, the leader of Genesis Sect’s Elder Council, Lim Long, arrived. We’re old acquaintances, so he easily suspected me.” Donald took a sip of tea and continued, “After being discovered, I immediately left the scene, but later I was ambushed by about ten mid-level Sovereigns in a mountain valley. Although I killed seven or eight of them in the end, I was also severely injured and nearly died. If it weren’t for the fact that the remaining two were also heavily injured and didn’t have the energy to verify whether I was alive or dead, I’m afraid I wouldn’t have come back this time.”
“I see!” Ivy nodded slightly.
“Lord Dragon, we must find a way to stop them, otherwise, chaos is inevitable!” Donald paused slightly and continued.
“Are they still in City L?” Billy nodded slightly and asked. Even if Donald didn’t say it, he would do something about this. Even if those little chaps from the ancient martial arts world could not join to contend against the capital, Billy wouldn’t let go of them.
Currently, The capital city’s focus was on the Polar Domain, and if the people from the ancient martial arts world cause trouble now, it would only add unnecessary complications.
“Yes!” Donald nodded. “They should be staying in City L for two or three days to discuss the details of the alliance.”
“Good.” Billy’s eyes narrowed slightly.
“Lord Dragon, City L is the headquarters of Wind & Cloud Holy Sect, be careful!” Donald continued. “Furthermore, other forces have also sent strong leaders, especially the old geezers from Genesis Sect.”
“Wind & Cloud Holy Sect?” Casey furrowed his brow upon hearing this. “Did they initiate this alliance?”
“No, they didn’t!” Donald shook his head. “Wind & Cloud Holy Sect is just a puppet pushed to the forefront. The true mastermind should be Genesis Sect. Also, if my guess is correct, there should be hidden forces behind them.”
“I see.” Casey shrugged his shoulders.
“Lord Dragon, it’s best to consult with Minister Woolery before you go and have him send someone to accompany you!” Donald looked at Billy and suggested.
Billy nodded thoughtfully. After learning some more details, Billy and his group bid farewell to Donald and left the hospital. Donald’s injuries weren’t severe, and with the help of some spiritual fruits and pills, he would recover in about ten to fifteen days.
“Boss, I’ll call Azure Fang and Azure Dragon to come to the capital city immediately.” Bob spoke up as they left the War Department compound.
“No need!” Billy shook his head. “They have just taken office, and there are a lot of things waiting for them to handle. Don’t bother them.”
“But according to Donald, many people from the ancient martial arts world have gone this time. Is it okay for just the few of us to go?” Night Orchid asked.
“Sure.” Billy shook his head again. “We’ll go and take a look first!”
After that, he turned to Ivy and asked, “Ivy, where is City L approximately located?”
“It’s in the western district, about three to four hundred kilometers from the ancient city.” Ivy responded.
“Casey, give Vermilion Bird a call and have him gather two hundred thousand soldiers from the Army of Bloodshadow, ready to be deployed at any time!” Billy said after a moment of thought.
“Got it!” Casey nodded vigorously and took out his phone to make the call.
“Night Orchid, call Soul Chaser and have him send a group of SHADOW brothers to scout around City L.” Billy then looked at Night Orchid and gave her instructions.
“Okay.” Night Orchid also took out her phone and made the call.
The next morning, Billy, along with Casey and Ivy, boarded a helicopter bound for City L. This time, he didn’t bring Harleen along, only Stout. Harleen’s parents and Tasha were in the capital city, and it wasn’t suitable for the two sisters to leave. Of course, he didn’t tell Harleen the truth, just saying that he had some business to attend to. Otherwise, Harleen would insist on going with him.
Before 9 o’clock in the morning, the helicopter landed on an open lawn on the outskirts of City L. City L was a small town in the western region, surrounded by mountains, with only one road leading to the outside world. Two-thirds of the people in the small town had the surname, Lambert.
City L was famous because of Wind & Cloud Holy Sect, and there were often people from the ancient martial arts world coming and going in the town. So, even without any major events, the small town was always bustling, with restaurants and hotels in the city often packed. The headquarters of Wind & Cloud Holy Sect was located on a mountain peak to the east of the small town, occupying almost the entire mountaintop, much larger than that of Yin Yang Shrine Sect.
“Greetings, Lord Dragon!”
After getting off the helicopter, eight SHADOW brothers quickly approached them.
