Several people had the thought of avoiding the attack, but at this moment, they were like arrows on a bowstring, with no choice but to fight back. If they were to retreat now, they would definitely suffer a worse fate. So, besides defending, they had no other choice. Without much time to think, they faced the solidified Bloodshadow Fury Blade with grim determination.
The result was predictable! With the strength of these people, how could they withstand Billy’s attack? Except for Gilberto Vaughan and Trystan Long, the other’s attacks were easily resolved by Bloodshadow Fury Blade. The momentum of the attack continued and swept through all of them.
Thud!
The next moment, a dozen men and women fell to the ground at the same time. Several of the lower Saint realm men and women lay on the ground, convulsing a few times before going still. The nine others in the Saint realm weren’t faring any better. They either had broken limbs or were bleeding profusely. They lay on the ground, wailing in despair.
Gilberto Vaughan and Trystan Long were sent flying in the air, spitting out a mouthful of blood as they flew. They landed heavily several hundred meters away and instantly lost their fighting spirit, their faces filled with fear.
This result was obviously intentional on Billy’s part! Otherwise, with his strength, he only needed one strike to ensure that none of these people survived!
“You can hold your ground quite well! Why don’t you come out?” Billy glanced in the direction of the welcome hall and muttered to himself.
Immediately after, he launched another attack!
Before Gilberto Vaughan and Trystan Long could get up from the ground, Billy’s second wave of attacks arrived. By this point, Gilberto Vaughan and Trystan Long were already seriously injured and had no chance of dodging. If they were hit by this strike, even if they had ten lives, they would not be able to survive.
“Father, save me!” both of them shouted at the same time.
“Stop hurting my son!”
Almost simultaneously, two middle-aged men’s voices came from the welcome hall.
At the same time as the voices sounded, two tremendous waves of energy, like hurricanes, surged forward with shocking power. Just from this imposing momentum, one could tell that the two men launching the attacks were at least in the late Saint realm.
Boom!
The two waves of energy collided with Billy’s attack, creating an earth-shaking roar.
Puff!
After the roar, Billy sprayed out a mouthful of blood and then flew backwards like a gust of wind, landing heavily on the mountain hundreds of meters away. He lay there motionless for a long time, blood continuously flowing from his mouth, his fate uncertain.
“Young Master!”
“Billy!”
“…”
Witnessing this scene, including Fabian Mills and Adam Greenleaf, the people of Ether Mountain exclaimed in unison. Then they hurried over, their faces filled with worry, and tears streamed down Aleah’s and Annika’s faces. Abby Meskill, standing opposite them, also wore a worried expression.
“Father!”
At the same time, Gilberto Vaughan and Trystan Long, who had just returned from the brink of death, shouted in unison.
Obviously, the two people who had taken action were the heads of the two ancient families, Alfie Vaughan and Fletcher Long!
They had been inside the welcome hall the whole time, keeping track of everything that was happening outside. The reason they hadn’t shown themselves earlier was that they shared the same idea as Gilberto Vaughan and Trystan Long; if they could severely injure Billy today, then this trip to Ether Mountain would be considered a great success.
However, the result had caught them off guard. If they didn’t come out now, their sons would die in Ether Mountain.
“How dared you kill the young master of Ether Mountain? You don’t think no one in Ether Mountain can handle you, do you?” At this moment, an angry voice resounded through the air.
Immediately after, two figures swiftly flew through the air. One was Megrez Sims, the North Hall Lord and one of the four guardians of Ether Mountain, and the other was Phecda, the West Hall Lord and also one of the guardians.
Whoosh!
As soon as their voices sounded, two violent waves of energy, accompanied by an earth-shattering force, surged towards Alfie Vaughan and Fletcher Long.
With their attacks, the terrifying pressure instantly enveloped the area within tens of kilometers, making the air feel vacuumed, causing everyone below to shiver uncontrollably.
Many animals fled in fear, and some small and weak creatures exploded into pieces after running a few steps.
“Hmm?”
Alfie Vaughan and Fletcher Long’s pupils shrunk to the size of a pinhead as they sensed the killing intent emanating from Megrez Sims and Phecda.
Their bodies were covered in cold sweat, and they were filled with fear. They wanted to explain, but there was simply no time. The overwhelming attacks had arrived in an instant, sealing off all their escape routes.
Caught between a rock and a hard place, the two could only muster all their strength and meet the attacks head-on.
“Gilberto, get out of the way!” Alfie Vaughan shouted loudly as he attacked.
There was no need for him to remind him. Gilberto Vaughan and Trystan Long, who were lying nearby, scrambled away to the side.
Boom!
Before his words even finished, a fierce collision resounded through the sky, causing a commotion comparable to a small avalanche in the area around Ether Mountain’s peak.
Puff!
After the loud noise, Alfie Vaughan and Fletcher Long, like Billy before them, sprayed out a mouthful of blood, then floated a kilometer away like two leaves, crashing into the ground and creating two large pits. They lay motionless for a long time, their vital signs diminished.
At the same time, Gilberto Vaughan, Trystan Long, and the injured people who had been hit by Billy’s attack were all lifted up by the residual shockwaves and fell to the ground. When they landed, except for Gilberto Vaughan and Trystan Long, who still had some breath left, everyone else had gone to Hell.
The scene fell silent in the next moment, only the howling of the wind could be heard. All of this happened in the blink of an eye, and for a while, no one could react to the sudden change.
“Greetings to the two Hall Lords!” Fabian Mills and Adam Greenleaf led the people of Ether Mountain to bow respectfully to Megrez Sims and Phecda.
“How is Young Master?” Phecda looked at Fabian Mills and asked in a heavy tone.
“He went through a near-death experience!” Fabian Mills responded with a solemn tone.
“Take Young Master to Floating Cloud Peak immediately!” Megrez Sims frowned.
“Understood!” Fabian Mills nodded solemnly.
Then, carrying Billy on his back, he flew towards Floating Cloud Peak, with Adam Greenleaf and Aleah and Annika following closely.
