They turned their heads in the direction of the voice and saw a group of people gathered not far ahead.
The woman speaking was young, dressed in a purple robe, with a beautiful face and an ethereal aura. To Billy and the others’ surprise, the woman had an Eastern appearance and spoke fluent local language of Glavale. Facing her was a group of burly men, with varying skin tones. The leader was a white man in his thirties.
“Heh, what do you think we’re going to do?” the leader glanced at the woman. “You stole my spirit stone, and now you think you can just walk away?”
“Who cares about stealing your spirit stone!” the woman in purple sneered. “If I wanted spirit stones, I could bring out several carriages of top-grade spirit stones anytime. Why would I bother stealing from you?”
Upon hearing her words, Stout and Judge coughed uncomfortably. This girl sure had guts, they thought. Did she even understand the concept of ‘several carriages of top-grade spirit stones’? One top-grade spirit stone was equal to ten thousand high-grade spirit stones. Even if it was just half a carriage of top-grade spirit stones, it would probably be enough to buy the entire Nordhaven City.
“Don’t find it amusing. What she says might not be false!” Billy said thoughtfully.
“Huh?” Judge was taken aback.
“Boss, what do you mean? You don’t actually believe she can produce several carriages of top-grade spirit stones, do you?”
“Her identity should be extraordinary!” Billy answered without answering.
“Billy, have you noticed something?” Ivy asked.
“Her cultivation has been sealed, otherwise, she could slap those twenty-something people to death with ease!” Billy nodded in response.
“Huh?!” Even Casey was surprised this time. After a brief pause, he asked, “Boss, among those twenty people, the old man in the blue clothes should be an Eighth-rank Sovereign warrior.”
“I know.” Billy nodded. “He’s not the only Eighth-rank Sovereign. The man in the gray clothes is also one, and the others have decent skills too, with several of them at the mid-stage of the Sovereign Realm.”
Soul Chaser took a sharp breath and looked at Billy.
“Boss, are you saying that if her power wasn’t sealed, she would be at least a Half-Step Saint?”
Anyone who could slap an Eighth-rank Sovereign warrior to death would be at least a Half-Step Saint or above.
“You’re underestimating her!” Billy squinted his eyes.
“While I can’t fully ascertain her exact cultivation, at the very least, she’s a Second-rank Saint or above, no lower!”
“What?!” Judge and the others exclaimed simultaneously. They couldn’t believe that a young girl in her prime was a Second-rank Saint powerhouse.
“Hahaha…” At the same time, the group of people on the other side burst into laughter. Even the onlookers around them joined in, clearly not believing her words.
“Do you find it amusing?” the girl in purple looked at the leader and said.
“Don’t you find it amusing?” the man struggled to suppress his laughter. “Little girl, do you even know what top-grade spirit stones are?”
“I can’t be bothered with you!” the girl in purple glanced at him. “Get out of my way, I’m looking for my sister!”
“Today, if you don’t hand over my money pouch, you won’t be going anywhere!” the leader said calmly. As he spoke, two men behind him stepped forward to block the girl’s path.
“You bastard!” the girl in purple turned to the leader. “I warn you one last time, let go of me right now, or you’ll regret it!”
“I’d love to see how you make me regret it!” the man licked his dry lips. After speaking, he looked at the two men with a wicked gaze. “Hold her down, I want to search her body and see if my money pouch is on her!”
“Are you daring enough?” the girl in purple shouted loudly. “If you dare to touch me, I guarantee that none of you will leave alive!”
“Billy, she’s from Glavale. Shouldn’t we help her?” Harleen turned to Billy and asked.
Billy nodded slightly.
As they conversed, the two men had already grabbed one of the girl’s arms.
“You bastard, if you don’t stop, my sister will kill you!” The girl in the purple dress struggled and shouted loudly, with a hint of panic on her face.
“You’re so beautiful, your sister must be pretty too, right?” The leader of the men licked his lips. “Don’t worry, I’ll search your body first, and then I’ll wait for your sister to come!” After speaking, he reached out and grabbed towards the girl’s chest.
“Stop!” At that moment, Harleen and Ivy both walked over.
The leader turned his head to look at the two, his eyes filled with wickedness. Although the girl in the purple dress was considered a little beauty, she lacked the irresistible charm of Harleen and Ivy. Her body hadn’t fully matured yet. In comparison, Harleen and Ivy had a stronger allure to men.
“Ladies, do you know her?” The man licked his lips and looked at Harleen and Ivy. “Are you the sister she mentioned?”
“Let her go!” Harleen ignored him and looked at the two men holding the girl.
“She stole my money pouch, do you think I’ll just let her go?” The young man laughed. “By the way, she keeps saying she didn’t steal my money pouch, and it seems like she’s not afraid of being searched. Did she already give the money pouch to you two?”
“Ladies, are you from Glavale?” the girl in the purple dress shouted loudly at Harleen and Ivy. After a brief pause, she continued, “Don’t listen to his nonsense, I didn’t steal his money pouch, he’s just trying to frame me!”
“Don’t worry, you’ll be fine.” Harleen nodded slightly and turned to the two men.
“I’ll say it one last time, release her immediately, or you won’t have your arms anymore!”
“This lady has quite the personality!” The leader chuckled again. “If you want me to release her, then let me search your body, how about that?”
Whoosh! Before he finished speaking, Ivy had already made her move. Two sword lights swiftly flashed towards the two men. The two men, with only early-stage War Grandmaster cultivation, couldn’t dodge Ivy’s sword lights. Before they could fully react, they felt a sharp pain in their shoulders. Immediately after, their arms fell to the ground, blood splattered onto the girl in the purple dress.
“Ah…” The two men screamed in pain and squatted down.
“Serves you right!”
The girl in the purple dress seemed accustomed to such scenes. Although she was covered in blood, she showed no signs of fear. Immediately after, while the two men were momentarily stunned, she quickly walked over to Harleen and Ivy.
