“Lord Dragon!” Upon seeing Billy, Eligina took a deep breath and bowed respectfully.
“Lord Dragon!” Soya also bowed at the same time. They had met Billy before during their expedition in Xidengia as he was the deputy leader of Aquilandia.
Billy glanced at Eligina and nodded slightly. He didn’t expect to encounter her in the Polar Domain. He guessed that she must be here for the exploration of the Ice Cave as well.
“Bob, what happened?” Billy then turned to Bob who was standing beside him and asked.
“That kid brought it upon himself!” Bob raised his hand and pointed at the curly-haired man, briefly describing the incident.
After listening, Billy’s expression twisted slightly.
“Lord Dragon, we were in the wrong today. On behalf of Aquilandia, I apologize to you!” Eligina bowed again.
“What do you want us to regret?” Billy ignored Eligina’s words and turned to Borg, speaking calmly.
“You must be Commander Gardner, right?” Borg took a deep breath before speaking again.
“Your men killed four of our Aquilandia comrades, and now they’ve injured Lord Gill. Don’t you think they’ve gone too far?”
“Is that too far?” Billy coldly responded, “Then what would you call it if I killed all of you?” As he spoke, a chilling intent emanated from him.
“You…” Borg furrowed his brows, feeling a sense of impending doom from Billy, even though he couldn’t discern Billy’s true strength. It was highly likely that Billy’s skills surpassed his own.
“Lord Dragon…” Eligina spoke up. Deep down, she didn’t want to have a conflict with Billy. But she also didn’t want to see Billy actually kill all of her comrades.
“What’s the matter? Are you scared?” Billy continued to look at Borg and spoke coldly. “You should be grateful. Today, your princess is pleading on your behalf. Otherwise, none of you would be able to leave!” After speaking, he turned to Eligina.
“Your Highness, I don’t want this kind of thing to happen again. Or don’t blame me for not giving you face!”
Hearing Billy’s words, Eligina secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Then she bowed to Billy and said, “Thank you, Lord Dragon. I promise there won’t be a next time!”
“Alright, gather your people and leave!” Billy waved his hand dismissively.
“Thank you!” After Eligina finished speaking, she turned to Harleen and the others, bid them farewell, and left.
But in that moment when Borg turned around, a strong glint of coldness flashed in his eyes. Clearly, he wasn’t going to let this matter go so easily.
“Boss, they won’t back down so easily!” Casey looked at Billy and spoke.
“It’s alright!” Billy shook his head slightly and looked at everyone, asking, “Have you all finished eating?”
“Yes!” Everyone nodded in unison.
“Then let’s go!” After Night Orchid settled the bill, Billy led the group towards the exit.
“Honey, did you find out any information about the people from the Ice Cave?” Harleen asked Billy as they left the restaurant.
“Yeah!” Billy nodded and replied, “They should be at the hotel. Let’s go and check it out!”
The group followed Ocean Martin towards the Snow Night Passion Hotel on the snowy night. After about twenty minutes, they arrived at the entrance of a mansion in the eastern part of the city. The mansion had a twenty-story main building. In this sparsely populated area, buildings here were generally not very tall, and a twenty-story building was considered high.
“Lord Dragon, this is the Snow Night Passion Hotel!” Ocean Martin pointed to the mansion.
Billy nodded slightly and turned to the group.
“Casey and Bob come with me. The rest of you guard the hotel’s exits. No one is allowed to enter or leave until we come out!”
Everyone responded simultaneously and immediately took action. Then, Billy and the others followed Ocean Martin into the hotel lobby.
“Welcome to the Snow Night Passion Hotel. Are the four of you here for drinks or accommodation?” A black woman in the hotel uniform walked up to them, her figure extremely attractive. Although she concealed her cultivation, Billy could sense her martial aura, at the peak of the War God-Emperor realm. Given this fact, the hotel was not ordinary.
“We’re not here for drinks or accommodation!” Ocean Martin took out a spirit stone from his pocket and handed it over. “We’re here to inquire about some information!”
“I wonder what information this young master wants to inquire about?” The woman raised an eyebrow when she saw the spirit stone in Ocean Martin’s hand. With her discerning eyes, she could tell the purity of the spirit stone. It was definitely a middle-grade spirit stone. To give a middle-grade spirit stone right at the start, that was quite generous.
Spirit stones were the currency in the Polar Domain, and they could be classified into low-grade, middle-grade, and high-grade based on their purity, with the conversion rate between the three levels being in the tens of thousands. One middle-grade spirit stone was equal to ten thousand low-grade spirit stones, and one high-grade spirit stone was equal to ten thousand middle-grade spirit stones. Usually, the spirit stones used for daily expenses were ordinary low-grade ones.
“Where are the people from Frost Palace?” Billy spoke indifferently.
Upon hearing Billy’s words, the woman was slightly taken aback. After a brief pause, she responded, “I’m sorry, sir, but I haven’t seen anyone from Frost Palace, so I can’t answer your question.”
“You better cooperate!” Bob spoke calmly. “Or we’ll have to search each room ourselves!”
“I advise you all to be careful. This is not an ordinary place. If you cause trouble, the consequences will be severe!” The woman warmed coldly.
“Is that so?” Billy squinted his eyes. After speaking, he didn’t pay any further attention to her and released a powerful spiritual pressure that enveloped the entire building.
“If you have nothing else, please leave. Don’t cause trouble for yourselves!” The woman furrowed her brows and continued. “If you make a big deal out of this, it will be very difficult for the four of you to leave…”
“Are they on the third floor?” Billy asked as he withdrew his spiritual power. He could sense several strong auras coming from one of the rooms on the third floor, mostly at the mid to late stage of the Sovereign cultivation. Most likely, they were members of Frost Palace.
“… How do you know?” the woman asked instinctively.
“Thanks!” Billy walked towards the nearby staircase, with Casey and the others following closely behind.
“What are you planning to do?” The woman quickly stepped in front of Billy as she realized what was happening.
“Step aside!” Billy stared at her intently. “Or else, death!” As he spoke, a chilling aura filled the air, instantly enveloping the woman.
The woman immediately felt a suffocating sensation and couldn’t help but shiver. “You… you…” She struggled to speak.
Before she could finish her sentence, Billy and the others had already reached the staircase. After a brief moment of confusion, the woman picked up an electronic device and spoke rapidly into it.
