“Lord Dragon is joking!” the old man with a hooked nose responded.
“My family’s old master heard that Lord Dragon was visiting, so he specially sent me to welcome Lord Dragon up the mountain!”
As he spoke, two other men landed on the ground from mid-air.
“Is that so?” Billy’s eyes narrowed slightly as he looked at the three of them.
If there was someone that the Long family currently hated the most, it was definitely Billy. So, their initiative to invite him up the mountain was definitely not that simple.
“Aryan is young and doesn’t understand things. Please be gracious, Lord Dragon, and spare him this time,” the old man with the hooked nose continued.
“Alright!” After replying, Billy turned to Azure with a slight squint in his eyes. “Azure, let him go!”
“Understood!” Azure responded before looking at Aryan Long and saying, “Get lost!”
“Hmph! You think you’re so tough? Yet you still have to obediently let me go!” Aryan Long snorted before walking quickly towards the three of them.
“Idiot!” Azure Dragon said in a low voice.
Whoosh!
Immediately, a strong gust of wind swept towards Aryan Long as Azure Dragon raised his hand.
Seeing the expression on his boss’ face just now, he basically understood his boss’ intentions.
“Aryan, be careful!”
One of the opponents shouted and at the same time raised his hand to counter Azure Dragon’s attack.
“Get lost!” Casey’s voice rang out as the pitch-black Celestial Blade released a cold light.
“Hmm?” The old man immediately felt a cold killing intent rushing towards him, and his pupils contracted.
He no longer paid attention to Aryan Long, quickly dodging to the side.
Splat!
However, although he reacted quickly, he was still struck by the blade at his waist, leaving a deep bloody gash.
“Uh…” The old man grunted and was pushed back a hundred meters before stopping, blood gushing from his waist.
Thunk!
At the same time, Aryan Long was lifted into the air by Azure Dragon’s palm strike and then brutally slammed down a distance of three to four hundred meters.
The strong palm strike destroyed everything in its path, directly shattering his Dantian.
Splutter!
After spitting out a mouthful of blood, Aryan Long opened his mouth as if to say something, but no words came out, his eyes rolled back, and he passed out.
“You guys are damned!” The old man who just spoke roared.
However, it was just a few words of bravado.
He was very clear about his strength; he couldn’t even beat Casey, let alone Billy. If he rushed up, he probably wouldn’t stand a chance of surviving.
“Leave him alive; it’s to leave a few heirs for your Long family,” Azure Dragon said calmly.
“You…” the old man was steaming with anger.
“Lord Dragon, shall we?” At this time, the old man with the hooked nose forcefully suppressed his anger and looked at Billy.
“Lead the way!” Billy replied nonchalantly.
He wanted to see what tricks the Long family had up their sleeves!
Following the lead of the three of them, the group soared through the air.
After a few minutes, they landed in a valley.
Looking around, Billy and the others saw a cluster of palaces, with exquisite carvings and structures, exuding a luxurious aura that surpassed even the Ravenwood family they had seen before.
“I wonder how many resources the Long family has plundered over the years!” Bob couldn’t help but exclaim as he looked at the scene.
“Just the Genesis Sect that they pushed to prominence is like a giant parasite!” Azure Dragon added.
“Lord Dragon, this way please!” At this moment, the leading old man gestured respectfully to Billy.
“Okay!” Billy’s eyes narrowed slightly as he took a step forward.
Soon, they arrived at a spacious square in the center of the palace complex.
“Lord Dragon, forgive us for the impertinence of welcoming you to our humble abode!” At that moment, an old man’s voice echoed throughout the valley.
As the voice fell, a group of people flew over from not far away.
Leading them was an old man in a white robe with white hair and beard, his actual age indiscernible, with a ruddy complexion and a sharp spirit, no hint of aura fluctuation around him.
This person was the old master of the Long family, Jeremiah Long.
Behind him, each person’s cultivation level was not weak.
The strongest among them was an eighth rank Saint, and there were also two male and female seventh-rank Saints, with the weakest having a cultivation level of the fourth rank.
As one of the four ancient families, with these Saint experts, it could rival the military power of some of the countries higher in the rankings.
“You must be Jeremiah Long, right?”
After the other group landed on the ground, Billy’s eyes squinted slightly as he looked at Jeremiah Long.
Although there was no aura fluctuation on him, with Billy’s current spiritual power, he had already sensed Jeremiah Long’s cultivation level.
A genuine Divine Realm expert!
“Hehe, Lord Dragon has sharp eyes!” Jeremiah Long smiled.
After a slight pause, he continued, “I wonder what brings Lord Dragon to our Long family this time?”
“I’m here to give you a chance for revenge!” Billy said with a faint smile.
“Hehe, Lord Dragon is joking!” Jeremiah Long smiled again. “The past grievances were all misunderstandings. Where does this talk of revenge come from?”
“Oh?” Billy raised an eyebrow. “Your descendants were crippled like that. Aren’t you going to avenge them?”
“That was their own lack of skill; they can’t blame others!” A cold light flashed in Jeremiah Long’s eyes.
“Tsk tsk, you can bear that? Doesn’t seem like the style of your Long family!” Azure Dragon interjected.
As he spoke, he scanned around and said, “You’re not waiting for someone to come to your aid, are you?”
“Insolent! Who are you, and what qualifications do you have to intervene here!” a gray-robed old man, an eighth rank Saint, responded sternly.
“So agitated, could it be that Azure Dragon hit the nail on the head? Are you really waiting for someone?” Bob spoke up at the same time.
“Ignorant!” the gray-robed old man replied angrily. “If we really wanted to kill you, we wouldn’t need anyone else!”
“Is that so?” Billy squinted his eyes and continued, looking at Jeremiah Long.
“Twenty days ago, your Long family and the Vaughan family set up a trap to lure me out, relentlessly trying to take my life.”
“If I’m not mistaken, your reliance is not just your breakthrough to the Divine Realm, right? You should have other reliance as well?”
“I don’t quite understand Lord Dragon’s meaning!” Jeremiah Long replied upon hearing Billy’s words.
“Don’t want to admit it?” Billy spoke again.
As he spoke, his eyes subconsciously swept to the back of the valley.
With his current level of spiritual power, he had long been aware of the situation in the entire valley. When he first arrived in the valley, he sensed a very powerful aura fluctuating deep in the valley.
However, that aura was not stable, fluctuating between strong and weak, appearing and disappearing.
Perhaps, that was the Long family’s true ace in the hole!
“If my guess is correct, you sent people to lead us up the mountain to try to capture us all, right?” Billy continued.
“You truly are the Lord of Ether Mountain; you dare to come even knowing this is a death trap. Just your courage alone is admirable!” At that moment, another old voice sounded from the air.
Immediately after, a group of people appeared once again in the sky not far away.
The leading old man, like Jeremiah Long, was also a Divine Realm expert who had recently broken through. Behind him were five or six people at the mid to late stage of Saint, the strongest of whom was also an eighth-rank Saint.
“The Vaughan family’s men?” After the opponents landed from the air, Billy’s eyes narrowed slightly.
