Puff!
In the next moment, Brenton Langley spurted out a large mouthful of blood and flew out hundreds of meters away.
He heavily fell to the ground, tumbling several somersaults before coming to a stop. Blood kept gushing out from his mouth, and his combat power was reduced to less than fifty percent.
Struggling to lift his head to look at Billy, he wanted to say something but couldn’t utter a word.
At this moment, he finally realized how childish his behavior today was.
Thinking of making the other side submit was simply a big joke.
He knew clearly that Billy hadn’t even exerted his full strength yet; otherwise, he would have been dead already.
Just a single slash from a second-rank Divine Realm, made him, a fourth-rank Divine Realm, lose his combat power.
What kind of monstrous existence was Billy?
“Sect master!”
Seeing the situation here, Dayton Langley and others shouted simultaneously, their faces full of shock.
They wanted to come over and help, but they were already at their limit.
Under the full force of Opal, Casey, and others, the opponents, numbering around a hundred, were obviously not a match.
In just a few minutes, more than half of them had already fallen.
“If you don’t want to die, all of you kneel down!”
Billy’s voice entered everyone’s ears, along with a strong oppressive aura, making them feel a chill down their spines.
“Elder Dayton, please stop everyone!”
After standing up from the ground, Brenton Langley looked at Dayton Langley and said with difficulty.
He knew very well that if they continued to fight, nobody would survive.
Puff!
Without much hesitation, in less than two minutes, all the remaining people on the other side knelt down.
“Do you have anything else to say?” Billy then looked at Brenton Langley and spoke.
“Who… who exactly are you people?” Brenton Langley asked again.
“Do you remember what I told you before?” Billy responded, “Submit or perish!”
“I acknowledge my defeat in skill!” Brenton Langley spat out a mouthful of blood. “But to make Cardinal Eagles Sect submit, it’s impossible!”
“Come on, give me a quick death!”
“As you wish!” Billy said in a deep voice. “Azure Dragon, end him!”
“Good!” Azure Dragon responded, raising his hand to deliver a fatal blow.
“Don’t…”
Sensing the murderous intent from Azure Dragon, Brenton Langley finally softened.
To live was better than being dead.
“Weren’t you acting all high and mighty? Now you’re giving in so quickly?” Azure Dragon glanced at him.
“I… I’m willing to submit…” Brenton Langley looked at Billy and responded with difficulty.
“As long as you spare my life, from now on, Cardinal Eagles Sect will obey you…”
For him, surviving today was the priority. Whether or not to truly submit was another matter.
“You should be thinking about agreeing for now, then waiting for a chance to retaliate, right?” Stout remarked from the side.
“But, I’m afraid I’ll disappoint you!”
As he spoke, he took out several homemade poison pills from his body.
“Here, each elder of your sect, one pill each. The taste of this antidote isn’t bad!”
Brenton Langley’s mouth twitched.
Though he was unwilling, he knew he had no choice.
Reluctantly, he took one pill and swallowed it.
“Ah…”
In just a few blinks of an eye, he collapsed to the ground, writhing in agony, his expression twisted.
“Ant… antidote… give me the antidote…”
“So you can’t even endure for this long?” Stout responded. “I thought you could last a few minutes!”
“I’m willing to submit… please give me the antidote…” Brenton Langley howled.
“Not fun, boring.” After clicking his tongue, Stout flicked his wrist, and three silver needles shot out.
Soon, Brenton Langley lay on the ground as if drained of all energy, his face pale, covered in sweat.
“That feeling just now occurs once a month,” Stout glanced at him.
“Unless I help you with the needles beforehand, otherwise, you’ll endure what you just experienced until your death.”
“If your physical constitution is good, you should be able to endure the whole process for about ten minutes.”
Brenton Langley’s face was filled with despair.
He’d rather commit suicide than experience it again.
A few minutes later, all the elders of the Cardinal Eagles Sect present at the scene each took a poison pill.
“In three months, if your performance satisfies me, I will give you the antidote.”
Billy looked at them calmly. “In addition, your Cardinal Eagles Sect has been in Extreme City for so long, you should have some savings, right?”
“Starting from this month, you’ll have Stout administer the detoxification needles. Send a hundred premium spirit stones per person every month.”
Azure Dragon and Stout both choked at the same time.
Indeed, he was the boss, too ruthless.
A hundred premium spirit stones per month were a considerable fortune!
Hearing this number, Brenton Langley spurted out another mouthful of blood.
Opening his mouth, he couldn’t say a word.
“Go away!” Billy waved his hand.
“Tha… thank you for sparing our lives…” Brenton Langley spoke again with difficulty before leading his people away.
At this moment, he regretted it to his bones.
Originally, he was here to take protection money but end up suffering a great loss!
…
The main courtyard of Flying Dragon Sect is located in the eastern area of Extreme City.
This morning, there were a few visitors to Flying Dragon Sect.
The leader was a young man in his late thirties, dressed sharply with extraordinary bearing.
The man’s cultivation was decent, a third-rank Divine Realm.
The gray-robed old man following him was the highest cultivator among the group, a fourth-rank Divine Realm.
Receiving the group was the Vice-Master of Flying Dragon Sect, Finley Hunt, along with several elders. Among them, a woman named Bethany Holmes also sat in attendance.
“What brings you to our Flying Dragon Sect? Finley Hunt asked the young man.
Originally, given Flying Dragon Sect’s position in Extreme City, he was not inclined to entertain visitors.
However, the group seemed extraordinary, most likely from the royal palace or imperial court.
So, he wanted to see what their purpose was.
“Hello, Master Finley!” The man picked up a teacup and took a sip.
“I came here today, partly to visit your sect, and partly to discuss a transaction with your sect.”
“A transaction? What kind of transaction?” Finley Hunt asked.
“I want your sect to help me kill someone!” The young man took a portrait from a follower and handed it over.
“Who is this person?” Finley Hunt took the portrait and looked at it.
“Hmm?” Bethany Holmes beside him looked at the portrait and was stunned.
“Elder Bethany, do you know him?” Finley Hunt looked at Bethany Holmes.
“Um!” Bethany Holmes leaned closer to Finley Hunt and whispered, “He’s the one who wiped out Wild Tiger Gang.”
“Oh?” Finley Hunt’s eyes narrowed slightly.
Then he turned to the young man. “Flying Dragon Sect is not an assassin organization. Please leave.”
“Master Finley, don’t rush to refuse. You can first listen to what reward I can offer,” the young man said with a faint smile.
“After listening, I believe Master Finley should consider it.”
