“You answer my question first!” Billy responded.
“Kid, you…” The old man was very angry.
“You don’t have to say anything!” Billy interrupted him.
“I’ll have the old man get you out of my body another day and let you perish!”
“I’ve saved your life twice today, and this is how you repay your benefactor?” The old man’s tone softened noticeably.
After a brief pause, he continued speaking.
“Don’t worry, that old man is very powerful. After he sealed me, I had no consciousness on ordinary days.”
“However, he left you a way out. When your life is threatened, the power of your bloodline will release my consciousness.”
“Does that mean the seal was also broken when you were released?” Billy continued to ask.
“Didn’t I say that old man is amazing?” The old man continued with a slightly annoyed tone.
“I don’t know what despicable means he used, but after the threat to your life is removed, your bloodline power will seal me again.”
“Is it true?” Billy’s eyes lit up.
“I don’t have time to joke with you. Tell me quickly, who is that old man, he…”
But before he could finish his sentence, Billy felt something strange in his body, and then the old man’s presence disappeared.
Undoubtedly, he was sealed again.
“Is it really so amazing?” Billy couldn’t help but say.
“Billy, Aunt Stephanie’s injuries are almost healed!” About half an hour later, Ivy pulled out the silver needles from Stephanie Stuart one by one.
“Good!” Billy also stood up from the ground.
Then he walked to Stephanie Stuart’s side and roughly examined her injuries. Seeing that there were indeed no major problems, he felt relieved.
Then, he looked towards Casey and said, “Casey, take him back to the imperial city!”
“Okay!” Casey nodded in response.
At this time, Chaim Henderson had already been sealed by Casey, with a look of endless despair on his face.
Soon, everyone flew towards the direction of the imperial city.
“Judge, Soul Chaser, go inform Azure Dragon to keep an eye on those first-rank Sacred Realm and half-step Sacred Realm people!” About fifteen minutes later, when everyone arrived above the imperial city, Billy instructed.
The people he referred to naturally were the ones who had returned to the imperial city from the valley earlier.
“Okay!” Judge and Soul Chaser responded before turning away.
A few minutes later, Billy and the others landed in an empty space in the courtyard of the palace.
At this time, the courtyard had already been controlled by Chaim Henderson’s men, with layers of guards, all with solemn expressions.
“Who goes there?” Even before everyone arrived above the courtyard, the people below had already sensed something. When everyone landed, three to four thousand Imperial Guards surrounded them simultaneously.
“Lord Chaim?” Surprised voices rang out around them when they saw Chaim Henderson in Casey’s hands.
“Anyone who doesn’t want to die, get out of the way now!” Casey shouted loudly to the surrounding crowd.
“You scoundrel, release Lord Chaim now!” The leader, an elderly ninth-rank Divine Realm expert, shouted angrily.
Boom! Before his words could even finish, Billy casually swept his hand, and a powerful gust of wind swept out.
The old man had no chance to resist at all. He was thrown several hundred meters away and fell heavily to the ground, his head tilted, unconscious.
Seeing this scene, the people surrounding them all gasped in horror, their faces full of dread as they retreated.
A ninth-rank Divine Realm expert’s cultivation was casually destroyed. Such level of strength was something they couldn’t provoke.
“Have your men bring Desmond Henderson here?” Casey said in a low voice after throwing Chaim Henderson to the ground.
At this point, Chaim Henderson knew that the situation was over. Continuing to resist would only result in suffering, with no meaning other than physical pain.
After a slight pause, he laboriously gave some instructions to an eighth-rank Divine Realm expert.
After about ten minutes, several guards from the Imperial Guard brought Desmond Henderson to the scene.
He had some injuries, but they didn’t seem serious. It appeared his cultivation was sealed.
“Mr Billy?!”
Approaching him, Desmond exclaimed in surprise when he saw Billy.
He had thought that this time, not only himself but also Billy and his group would be implicated and would have little chance of survival. He had prepared for the worst.
But now, seeing Billy and his group appearing unscathed, he was naturally amazed.
Then he noticed Chaim Henderson lying on the ground, which shocked him even more.
Billy had defeated Chaim Henderson of the third-rank Sacred Realm?!
“How are you?” Billy asked Desmond Henderson.
Thud!
Desmond Henderson immediately knelt in front of Billy.
“Thank you, Mr Billy!”
“Get up!” Billy raised his hand and sent a burst of palm wind to lift him up.
Then, he released a few strands of spiritual force into Desmond’s body, unlocking his sealed cultivation.
“Thank you for your great kindness, Mr Billy!” Desmond Henderson took a deep breath and bowed deeply.
“From now on, my life belongs to Mr Billy. I’ll go through fire and water without hesitation!”
“Are there still people loyal to you in the palace?” Billy asked.
“Yes!” Desmond Henderson nodded and pointed to Chaim Henderson. “My father’s men had their cultivation sealed by him and are all locked in a palace behind.”
“Go release them,” Billy told several Imperial Guard soldiers to his left.
“Yes… Yes…” They nodded and quickly left.
“What about your father?” Billy continued to ask Desmond Henderson. “Bring him here; I’ll check his injuries.”
“Thank you!” Desmond Henderson bowed to Billy again and quickly walked towards a building in the northwest corner.
About ten minutes later, Kyan Henderson’s former loyalists arrived at the scene, totaling about forty to fifty people.
“Thank you for saving us, Mr Billy!”
They bowed and thanked Billy upon arrival.
They had learned the situation from the Imperial Guards and knew that Billy had saved them.
“No problem!” Billy replied, his eyes narrowing slightly.
Soon, rows of tiny silver needles materialized in the air in front of him.
The needles then rained down into the bodies of the people, unlocking their sealed cultivation.
“Thank you again, Mr Billy!”
Seeing Billy’s incredible skills, the forty to fifty people were secretly amazed.
“You guys take a break and recover!” Billy nodded slightly as he spoke.
At the same time, he released his spiritual force to sense their cultivation levels.
Among them were two first-rank Sacred Realm, two half-step Sacred Realm, four ninth-rank Divine Realm, and six eighth-rank Divine Realm cultivators. The rest were mostly mid-level Divine Realm.
At this point, most of Sheardal Empire’s elite had appeared.
Their overall strength was much stronger than what Billy had initially estimated.
Including Aldo Henderson from before and those guarding the valley, there were nearly ten Sacred Realm experts in Sheardal Empire!
Additionally, there were dozens of half-step Sacred Realm and several dozen ninth-rank Divine Realm cultivators.
No wonder Sheardal Empire was one of the four major empires within the Forbidden Ruins Space; their strength was not to be underestimated.
Billy then thought of another issue.
If Sheardal Empire, ranked third among the four major empires, had this kind of strength, then how powerful were the top two, Ice Cloud Empire and Crimson Flame Empire?
“Mr Billy!”
At this moment, Desmond Henderson was helping an elderly man walk over.
