“Your idea sucks, but the results are not bad. It will drive both families crazy!” Eliza Rice continued.
“Hehe, thank you for the praise, Peak Master!” Billy grinned.
This matter was obviously planned by him from the beginning, just as Reuben Meskill and Abby Meskill had analyzed before. A few days ago, the people of the Vaughan family and the Long family attacked the Stuart family, killing so many people, and then set up a trap to take his life.
How could he easily let it slide!
He had planned to settle accounts with the members of the two families after returning from Ether Mountain this time, but he didn’t expect them to come to him willingly.
He wouldn’t easily let go of this opportunity!
When he was at the foot of Ether Mountain a few days ago, he heard Fabian Mills say that people from the two families had come to Ether Mountain. He already had a plan in mind.
Everything that followed went according to his plan, including the coordination between Megrez Sims and Phecda. Fabian Mills and Adam Greenleaf had informed them in advance.
“Alright, take care of your injuries first, then come upstairs to see me!” Eliza Rice roughly examined Billy’s injuries and, seeing that he was not seriously hurt, felt relieved.
“Understood!” Billy smiled again.
“You two should go back, or are you planning to stay for a free meal?” Eliza Rice turned to Fabian Mills and Adam Greenleaf and said.
The two of them choked again.
Then, they hurriedly greeted the others and left.
Even if Eliza Rice really wanted to invite them to eat, they wouldn’t dare. If they said something wrong, they would definitely be sent to the confinement room.
Afterwards, Eliza Rice turned and went upstairs.
“Billy, did you really pretend to be dead just now?” After Eliza Rice left, Annika looked at Billy with a pout.
“You are so annoying. You made me and my sister worry so much!”
“I was really unconscious from the injuries caused by Alfie Vaughan and Fletcher Long. I just woke up earlier,” Billy smiled and said.
“Humph! I don’t believe you!” Aleah also complained, “I don’t care, you have to make it up to us!”
“Haha, when I recover, I’ll teach you a set of swordsmanship,” Billy smiled again.
“Swordsmanship?” Annika was taken aback, “Is it more powerful than Ether Mountain Sword Art?”
“Yes!” Billy nodded.
“I don’t believe it. There can’t be any swordsmanship in the world that is stronger than Ether Mountain Sword Art!” Annika shook her head.
Annika, who was by her side, also expressed her disbelief.
The two of them had been staying in Ether Mountain for so many years. In their minds, Ether Mountain’s martial arts were the pinnacle of martial arts, so they naturally wouldn’t believe Billy’s words.
“When I recover, I’ll show you, then you’ll know,” Billy replied with a smile.
“I’ll believe you for now!” Aleah continued, “By the way, Billy, why didn’t Harleen and Ivy come to Ether Mountain with you?”
“They had other things to take care of. If they finish their tasks, they’ll come later,” Billy replied.
“Really? That’s great. I haven’t seen them for a long time, I miss them,” Annika said happily.
After chatting for a while, Annika and Aleah went to do other things, and Billy sat down cross-legged to heal his injuries.
His injuries were not light. Even though he was prepared, he still suffered a lot when two experts at the later stage of Saint realm attacked him.
After about two hours, he finished treating his injuries and went upstairs.
During his time at Ether Mountain, he had frequented Floating Cloud Peak many times, so he was familiar with the place.
After a while, he arrived at the door of a room on the third floor, knocked and walked in.
“Are you okay?” Eliza Rice, who was sitting on the sofa sipping tea, pointed to the sofa and said, “You haven’t had Ether Mountain tea for a long time, try it!”
“Thank you, Peak Master!” Billy sat down and picked up the tea cup. The familiar taste flooded his senses.
“You’ve done well in the Polar Domain these six months. You deserve praise!” Eliza Rice put down her teacup and smiled.
“Fortunately, I didn’t bring shame to Ether Mountain!” Billy replied with a smile.
“How is your mother? Is she doing well?” Eliza Rice asked.
“Thank you for your concern, Peak Master. My mother is fine. She was supposed to come back with me this time, but unexpected things happened, and she is currently in seclusion, so she had to give up,” Billy replied.
“Your mother is a legendary woman who has given a lot to Glavale for many years!” Eliza Rice said with emotion.
“Peak Master, you are the same!” Billy spoke, “It’s what Ether Mountain was made to do. Everyone has their own mission.”
“Yes!” Eliza Rice nodded slightly. “When you go back this time, say hello to your mother for me.”
“I will!” Billy nodded in response.
“How are Harleen and Ivy now?” Eliza Rice continued.
“They are both doing well. Harleen and Ivy recently obtained the inheritance of a Divine Realm expert and have reached the sixth-rank Saint realm,” Billy replied.
“Really? Not bad!” Eliza Rice raised an eyebrow.
After a pause, she continued, “The cultivation of the people around you is still too weak. If you have the time, let them come to Ether Mountain!”
“I have the same intention!” Billy smiled.
Speaking of which, he seemed to remember something and asked Eliza Rice, “By the way, Peak Master, have you heard of Lady Heartless?”
“Huh?” Eliza Rice’s hand holding the teacup paused slightly at the mention of this name. “How do you know about Lady Heartless?”
“Peak Master, have you really heard of Lady Heartless?” Billy could naturally tell from Eliza Rice’s reaction.
Then, he detailed the story of the ruins in Black Phoenix City.
“I didn’t expect her to have truly passed away a hundred years ago!” After listening to Billy, Eliza Rice said with a touch of sadness.
“Peak Master, does she have any connection with Ether Mountain?” Billy continued to ask.
“Yes!” Eliza Rice nodded. “She is my senior aunt, the senior uncle of me and my senior brother!”
Her senior brother, of course, was the old man of Ether Mountain!
“Ah?” Billy was stunned for a moment.
Although he had some speculations, he didn’t expect the connection between Lady Heartless and Ether Mountain to be so close.
“Why did she go to the Polar Domain and name herself Lady Heartless?” Billy asked.
“Ah! Senior Uncle has had a tough life!” Eliza Rice’s gaze drifted into the distance.
“She was deeply in love with my master and was obsessed with him. Her love for my master was crazy.”
“However, my master was wholeheartedly devoted to martial arts and didn’t pay attention to romantic relationships. No matter how Senior Aunt hinted, my master always treated her as a sister.”
“After countless attempts, Senior Aunt was completely disappointed and she left Ether Mountain. My master sent people to look for her off the mountain, but she was nowhere to be found.”
“By the time my master heard of her again, it was over ten years later. By then, she had become one of the famous Four Heroes of the Polar Domain.”
“After learning about her, my master went to the Polar Domain to find her, but she avoided him, and my master had to give up.”
“Later on, it was heard that she and Celestial Blade and the Wanderer had disappeared at the same time. My master searched for her for two or three years but didn’t find any clues.”
“Now, hearing what you said, it turns out that she truly passed away during that time!”
“I see!” Billy finally understood the situation.
