Three sects, two of them are second-rate forces, and the other one is a third-rate sect. The leaders of the three factions are all in charge, with two of them being at the fourth-rank Divine Realm, and the other one at the second-rank Divine Realm. Apart from these three, the high-level combat power within the three sects has also been brought along.
Just as the three groups of people gathered in the open space outside the manor, Opal, Casey, and others walked out from the manor.
“Is there something?” Azure Dragon glanced at the three men leading the groups.
“There are two things!” The elder in blue robe spoke in a deep voice.
“One, since you arrived in Extreme City, you’ve caused chaos. Extreme City doesn’t welcome you. You have one day to leave Extreme City,” he continued.
“And?” Azure Dragon asked lightly.
“Two, hand over everything you’ve taken from Flying Dragon Sect and Lion Syndicate Sect. We can let you leave safely,” the elder in blue robe responded.
“The second one is the main point, isn’t it?” Azure Dragon’s eyes narrowed slightly.
“I advise you to cooperate,” the other elder in gray robe spoke in a deep voice.
“And if we don’t?” Azure Fang spoke while drawing out his curved blade.
“Then you’re heading for your doom,” the elder in gray robe glanced at Azure Fang.
“You should be very clear that with just a dozen or so of you, if you really start a fight, you won’t have any chance of survival!”
After saying this, his gaze swept over Harleen, Ivy, and the others, a hint of strangeness flashing in his eyes.
“Oh, by the way, you beautiful ladies, if you want to stay in Extreme City, you can. As long as you are willing to submit and become our women, I guarantee…”
Before he finished speaking, Ian Blade beside him didn’t hesitate. He drew out his broadsword and slashed out.
“You’re seeking death, kid!” A man behind the elder in gray robe spoke in a deep voice and sent out a powerful gust of wind with a raise of his hand.
Bang! There was a muffled sound, and Ian Blade was pushed back about ten steps.
The opponent had the cultivation of a first-rank Divine Realm, two levels higher than Ian Blade. Obviously, it wasn’t easy for him to confront him without using his full strength.
“This is a warning. If you dare to attack again, I’ll send you to meet the King of Hell…” the man looked at Ian Blade coldly and said.
“Casey, finish him off!” Before the man could finish his words, Opal spoke.
“Okay!” As Casey’s voice sounded, Celestial Blade had already unleashed a curved blade aura towards the man.
“How dare you!” The elder in gray robe roared, at the same time sending out a strong wave of energy with a raise of his hand.
However, Opal wouldn’t let him succeed.
Just as the elder was about to act, she flicked her wrist, and the artifact in her hand shot out a blade aura.
Bang! Their attacks collided, and both were pushed back dozens of meters.
Opal was now in the later stage of the third-rank Divine Realm. Coupled with the enhancing effect of the sword in her hand, she could easily contend with a fourth-rank opponent.
At the same time, Casey’s blade aura struck the man without any suspense.
The man struggled to lower his head to look at the wound, but couldn’t utter a word. He fell straight down with a face full of unwillingness.
“Elder!” The people behind the elder in gray robe shouted at the same time.
“You fool, you’re truly seeking death!” After stabilizing his figure, the elder’s expression twisted in anger as he spoke.
After speaking, he turned to the elder in blue robe beside him.
“Mr Cox, stop wasting time with them. Let’s attack together. Kill the men and capture the women!”
“Alright!” Mr Cox responded, and his momentum soared. Then, he waved his hand and said, “Attack!”
Amidst the commotion, hundreds of people surged forward at the sound, preparing to charge towards Opal’s group.
“Stop!”
Just then, a furious shout echoed from not far away in the sky.
Casey and the others looked over to see a group approaching through the air, led by Marquise Thompson, the head of Cloud Feather Sect, whom they had encountered before.
“Why are people from Cloud Feather Sect here?” The elder in the blue robe furrowed his brow upon recognizing Marquise Thompson. Although both sides belonged to second-rate sects, he was well aware of the gap between his own sect and Cloud Feather Sect.
In terms of strength alone, he knew he was no match for Marquise Thompson.
He knew he was absolutely no match for Marquise Thompson!
“Mr Cox, what are you planning to do?” After landing in the clearing, Marquise Thompson stepped forward.
“Mr Thompson, what happened today has nothing to do with Cloud Feather Sect. I suggest you refrain from intervening,” the elder in the blue robe responded.
“You say it has nothing to do with Cloud Feather Sect? Aren’t my daughter’s rescuers involved?” After recognizing Marquise Thompson, the elder went to Harleen and bowed slightly.
“Ma’am, please accept my condolences!”
Except for his siblings, no one else knew about Billy’s feigned death, so Marquise Thompson was unaware of it as well. He had actually visited the manor yesterday but found the gates closed, so he didn’t disturb anyone. When he left yesterday, he arranged for two people to stay nearby and report any developments promptly, which allowed him to arrive on time today.
“Thank you, Mr Thompson,” Harleen bowed in return.
“Ma’am, we’ll talk later,” Marquise Thompson greeted Casey and the others before turning to the elder in the blue robe.
“Mr Cox, my Cloud Feather Sect has to intervene today!”
“If you leave, I’ll remember this favor. Otherwise, let’s settle it with our own abilities!”
“Mr Thompson, are you really going to meddle in this?” The elder in the blue robe narrowed his eyes.
“I don’t have time to waste with you here. Make your decision quickly, whether to leave or to fight!” Marquise Thompson replied.
“Mr Thompson, although your Cloud Feather Sect is powerful, you should know that there is always someone stronger. We didn’t intend to be enemies with your sect, but if you insist on acting against us, then don’t blame us!”
“Arrogant!” Marquise Thompson’s tone grew heavy. “Listen up, you have ten seconds. If you don’t leave by then, don’t bother leaving at all!”
“Hehe, Mr Thompson, such bold words!”
Just then, another voice sounded from the sky, accompanied by a terrifying pressure that enveloped the area, causing many of the lower-cultivated individuals to shiver involuntarily.
From this pressure, it could be sensed that the newcomer was of the sixth-rank Divine Realm!
The next moment, two elderly figures descended from the sky, and the one who spoke was the black-robed elder. Standing beside him was a white-haired old man with sharp eyes and a fierce aura, whose cultivation level matched the black-robed elder’s.
“Greetings, Mr Morris, Elder Hunt!”
Upon seeing the two, the elders in the blue and gray robes hastened to approach them and bow respectfully.
From their reactions, it was evident that they had already made arrangements with each other.
“Mr Cox, Mr Dawson, there’s no need for such formality,” Freddie Morris, the white-haired elder, waved his hand.
“It seems Boss’s guess was correct!” Azure Fang’s eyes narrowed slightly upon seeing the two.
“Azure Fang, isn’t that old man with the surname Hunt the great elder from Lion Syndicate Sect?” Stout, standing beside him, asked.
“Yeah,” Azure Fang nodded.
“Hehe, he must be tired of living!” Stout shrugged.
“Is it you?” Marquise Thompson’s brow furrowed slightly, and a hint of seriousness flashed across his face upon seeing the two.
“Mr Thompson, long time no see,” Freddie Morris responded with a smile that seemed both friendly and sinister.
“Mr Thompson, who is he?” Harleen asked.
