“What’s the matter?” Billy asked.
“My old friend has an daughter, who recently fell into a coma after being injured and still hasn’t woken up until today,” Uriel Gentry paused slightly before continuing.
“Could you please come and help her?”
“I promise, regardless of whether she can be cured or not, there will be rich rewards!”
“Is the patient in Ouverford?” Billy asked again.
“She’s in Criesgan!” Uriel Gentry responded.
“Sorry, we have other matters to attend to and don’t have time right now!” Billy replied.
Opal and Amber are still in the hands of Star Moon Sect. Naturally, he won’t waste too much time on other matters.
“Sir, how long will it take to finish your business?” Uriel Gentry asked.
“I am not sure!” Billy responded.
“Well… can you accept my commission then?” Uriel Gentry spoke again.
“When you finish you business, could you please visit Criesgan?”
“By then, even if my friend’s daughter has improved, I will still express my gratitude and reward you for saving me.”
“We saved you not because we wanted rewards,” Billy spoke lightly again.
After a brief pause, he continued, “Let’s leave it at that for today, goodbye!”
After saying that, he turned and walked towards the door.
“Sir…” Uriel Gentry continued to call out.
“After I finish my business, I will go to Criesgan!” With Billy’s words, Uriel Gentry’s eyes lit up.
“Judge, go and see if there are any maps of the Forbidden Ruins Space for sale!” When they arrived on the main street, Billy looked to Judge and said.
“Okay!” Judge replied and walked towards a general store not far away.
After a while, he returned empty-handed.
“What’s wrong? No maps for sale?” Azure Dragon asked.
“They do have them!” Judge spoke up.
“But the map is hand-drawn, very rough, and only covers an area of about a thousand square kilometers, so it’s useless.”
“Alright then!” Azure Dragon replied.
“Forbidden Ruins Space is not like the world you live in, with many modern technologies that can easily produce accurate world maps,” Nolan Ochoa chimed in from the side.
“In this world, maps themselves are precious items, and those that cover large areas with high accuracy are invaluable.”
“In a small place like Ouverford, how could there be high-quality maps for sale!”
“Why didn’t you say so earlier?” Azure Dragon glared at him before looking at Billy.
“Boss, should we go directly to the Star Moon Sect or stay overnight in Ouverford?”
“Settle in the nearest town to the Star Moon Sect!” Billy responded.
“Okay!” Casey and his group nodded.
With Nolan Ochoa leading the way, they headed towards the direction of the Star Moon Sect.
The nearest town to the Star Moon Sect is called Urghgow.
In the evening, Billy and his group arrived at the gates of Urghgow.
In Forbidden Ruins Space, wherever there are cities, entrance fees are charged, similar to several cities in the Polar Domain.
After Judge paid the spirit stones, they entered the gates of Urghgow.
Urghgow is about a third larger than Ouverford, with a much busier street and more people than Ouverford.
Because it was dinner time, the restaurants along the street were crowded.
“How far is it from here to the Star Moon Sect?” Billy asked Nolan Ochoa.
“Not far, about a hundred kilometers.” Nolan Ochoa replied.
“Shouldn’t there be a branch of your Star Moon Sect in Urghgow?” Billy continued.
“No… there isn’t!” Nolan Ochoa’s eyes flickered with an unusual color as he responded.
“Really?” Billy narrowed his eyes.
“Yes!” Nolan Ochoa continued, “In Forbidden Ruins Space, sects rarely get involved in worldly matters.”
“Do you believe that yourself?” Judge gave him a speechless glance.
Then he turned to Billy and said, “Boss, this guy is the young master of the Star Moon Sect. He must be quite well-known in Urghgow. Should we find a place to lock him up?”
“No need!” Billy shook his head.
“Billy, there must be many people in this city who know him!” Felicia interjected. “If we walk around the streets with him like this, the people of the Star Moon Sect will soon hear about it and might come looking for us…”
“Felicia, don’t worry!” Casey smiled and said, “Boss wants them to come looking for us!”
“What do you mean?” Felicia was slightly puzzled.
“You are really cunning!” Hearing this, Nolan Ochoa looked at Billy and spoke.
“You deliberately brought me to Urghgow to let the people of Star Moon Sect know that I am in your hands. This way, Star Moon Sect will definitely send someone to rescue me.”
“And at the beginning, the Star Moon Sect doesn’t know the specifics of your strength, so they will definitely not mobilize all their forces.”
“This not only gives you a chance to survive, but also allows you to have more hostages!”
Before he could finish speaking, Soul Chaser slapped him on the back of the head, and stars danced before his eyes.
“Now that you understand my intentions, you should know what to say and what not to say from now on, right?” Billy spoke lightly.
“Remember, if you say the wrong thing, I will make your blood flow backwards once.”
“Believe me, with your current situation, you probably won’t enjoy that feeling!”
Upon hearing his words, Nolan Ochoa shuddered inwardly.
He naturally knew what that feeling was like. Even before his power was sealed, he couldn’t last half a minute, let alone in his current situation.
“Judge, go ask which restaurant in Urghgow has the highest standard!” Billy then turned to Judge and said.
“Okay!” Judge nodded and walked towards a shop nearby.
“Boss, I found out. It’s a restaurant called Serenity.” Two minutes later, Judge returned.
Then, he pointed to a street on the left.
“Go straight down that street for about ten kilometers, and you will see a civic square. The restaurant is next to the square.”
“Let’s go!” Billy nodded slightly.
Then, leading the group, they headed towards the restaurant.
As expected, not long after they walked, someone recognized Nolan Ochoa on the street.
“Isn’t that Master Nolan? Wasn’t he always at Wind Swift Academy? When did he come back?”
“Yes! And he looks like he’s been seriously injured!”
“Who are the people around him? Are they from Wind Swift Academy?”
Along the way, there were occasional murmurs.
From the expressions of these people, it was clear that they looked at Nolan Ochoa with fear in their eyes.
“It seems like you have quite a high reputation in this city!” White Tiger said to Nolan Ochoa.
“They fear not me, but the Star Moon Sect!” Nolan Ochoa replied.
“Although the Star Moon Sect is only a second-rate sect, it is not to be trifled with by ordinary people.”
“Not to mention them, even the city lord of Urghgow would bow to the people of my Star Moon Sect if they saw them.”
“Sounds pretty arrogant!” White Tiger remarked.
About half an hour later, they arrived at the entrance of the Serenity Restaurant.
Like other restaurants, it was crowded inside, bustling with people.
“Boss, it looks like there’s no empty seats inside.” Black Tortoise scanned the restaurant’s lobby.
“I’ll go ask!” Night Orchid said and walked towards the bar.
Money can work wonders, and this principle can be applied anywhere.
After Night Orchid paid a few high-quality spirit stones, the restaurant cleared out two dining tables by the window on the right side of the main hall.
“Master Nolan? When did you come back?” As soon as they entered the hall, a woman who looked like a manager hurried over with a respectful tone.
