As soon as the man finished his words, Azure Fang swiftly raised his blade and the opponent’s left foot was immediately severed, blood gushing out.
“Ah…” The hooked-nose old man screamed in agony.
“You can stay silent, as long as you can endure your bones being chopped off piece by piece!” Azure Fang spoke.
“I… I’m from Xidengia, and… some of them are from Occidenta and Zephyria…” The old man no longer had any resistance left. “And… those Eastern people are from Oriana.”
“Damn it! They are all Northfortia’s lackeys!” Bob cursed.
“Besides this point, who else attacked the other three points of Glavale?” Billy continued to ask.
“The government army consists of people from our countries, and the other forces are from Snowstorm Pavilion Sect and other non-government organizations!” The old man continued to speak.
“Northfortia didn’t send anyone?” Harleen asked.
“… Northfortia’s people should have gone directly to your stronghold in Glavale. Their plan is to lure out the strong warriors in the city and then attack your main camp.”
“Damn it! Just as I thought!” Bob furrowed his brow. “Who did they send over there?”
“I don’t know about that…” the hooked-nose old man shook his head. “But, from what I understand, they only want to teach Glavale a lesson this time, not engage in a full-scale conflict, so they shouldn’t send too many people. And… and if your city didn’t send too many strong warriors to support the other four branch points, they… they might not dare to show up.”
“Azure Fang, finish them off!” Billy saw that they had asked enough and beckoned to Azure Fang.
After the blade passed, heads rolled. Then, Billy took out a satellite phone and dialed James Reynolds’ number.
“Lord Dragon, have you arrived?” James Reynolds’ voice came through the receiver.
“Just arrived!” Billy responded and asked, “How is the situation at the other three points?”
“There have been casualties at each point!” James Reynolds’ tone was slightly heavy. After a slight pause, he added, “But fortunately, most of our compatriots have already safely evacuated through the underground passages.”
“Alright!” Billy furrowed his brow and nodded. “What about the situation in the stronghold? Any intruders?”
“There’s no activity here!” James Reynolds responded.
“Send a group of people to patrol within a hundred kilometers of the stronghold and see if there are any traces of Northfortia’s people.” Billy instructed.
“Understood!” James Reynolds hesitated for a moment and then replied.
“If you find anything, don’t act rashly, just send me the coordinates.” Billy continued.
“Got it!” After James Reynolds finished speaking, he hung up the phone.
“Boss, what should we do with those people?” After Billy hung up the phone, Bob pointed to the hundreds of people kneeling on the ground and asked.
“Let them disable their cultivation on their own and then leave!” Billy responded.
“Alright!” Bob nodded and turned to walk towards them.
“Billy, should we make a call to ask about the situation with Casey?” Harleen looked at Billy and asked.
Billy nodded and picked up his phone to dial. However, the phone rang for a long time without anyone answering. He felt a strong sense of foreboding.
“No one is answering?” Harleen’s heart skipped a beat.
Billy nodded slightly, paused for a moment, and dialed Azure Dragon’s number again. Without skipping a beat, the ringing persisted, but no one picked up the call. Billy’s heart sank immediately.
Just then, a call came in from Night Orchid’s number.
“Orchid, where are you? Has something happened?” Billy asked in a deep voice as he answered the phone.
“Boss, after we dealt with the crisis at one of the branch points, we were on our way back to the stronghold, but we were intercepted by Northfortia’s people. They have a strong force!” came Night Orchid’s slightly anxious voice, accompanied by sounds of fighting.
Billy’s pupils contracted. “Send me the coordinates of your location, and tell Casey and the others not to linger in battle. If they can retreat, they should!” Billy commanded.
“Alright!” Night Orchid said before hanging up the phone.
“Billy, is something wrong with Casey and the others?” Harleen asked anxiously.
Azure Fang, with a grave expression, looked at Billy.
“Northfortia’s people found them!” Billy took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down.
“How did they find Casey and the others?” Stout approached, asking.
“It’s quite simple to understand.” Ivy responded with a heavy tone. “Northfortia must have stationed some people near our stronghold. When they saw Lord Reynolds and the others didn’t leave the city, they abandoned their plan to attack the stronghold and instead targeted Casey and the others. They must be well aware of the relationship between Casey and Billy. If they can capture them, they can achieve their goal!”
“Those Northfortia scoundrels deserve to die!” Stout gritted his teeth.
At that moment, a message came through from Night Orchid.
“Harleen, you and Ivy stay here. I’ll go with the Elder to check on Casey.” Billy glanced at the message and turned to Harleen.
The coordinates in Night Orchid’s message showed that the incident happened several hundred kilometers away from their current location.
“Let us go with you,” Harleen suggested. “Northfortia must have sent quite a few powerful warriors this time…”
“You should stay here!” Billy interrupted her. “Even if you rush over, it will be too late. Stay here and handle the aftermath, then wait for my call!” After he finished speaking, Billy turned to Grand and said, “Elder Ravenwood, let’s go!”
With those words, an extremely violent aura exploded from Billy’s body. Harleen and the others couldn’t help but shudder. In the next moment, Billy soared into the air and disappeared from their sight, with Grand Ravenwood closely following.
“Damn! Why does it feel like Boss has completely changed?” Stout exclaimed, his face filled with astonishment. “And his speed… wasn’t he just a Half-Step Saint? How can he move as fast as a full-fledged Saint expert?”
“Didn’t you guys see the dragon mark between Billy’s eyebrows?” Ivy retorted.
“Are you saying that he activated his bloodline power?” Stout finally caught on.
“What else could it be?” Ivy replied.
“That makes sense!” Bob chimed in.
They all knew that Billy’s greatest trump card was his bloodline, especially after awakening his golden bloodline. They speculated that if Billy were to unleash all his trump cards, his combat power would probably not be inferior to Grand Ravenwood’s.
