“Do you know about Westin Ayala’s whereabouts?” After a slight pause, Billy looked at Shadow Fifteen and asked.
“Although he is the commander of the Praetorian Guard, he is rarely at the Praetorian Guard’s headquarters.” Shadow Fifteen responded.
“He mostly stays in the Imperial Palace courtyard and rarely comes out unless there is something special.”
“Our colleagues who are stationed in the palace have been keeping an eye on him, but it hasn’t been very useful.”
“And he is very skilled; we dare not act recklessly.”
“He won’t come out unless there is something special?” White Tiger gazed ahead, “Then let’s create something special for him to come out!”
After saying that, he turned to Shadow Fifteen, “Westin Ayala’s family should all be in this imperial city, right?”
“Yes!” Shadow Fifteen confirmed, “His family is in the Praetorian Guard’s headquarters, but they also rarely come out.”
At this point, after a slight pause, he seemed to remember something and continued, “However…”
“What is it?” White Tiger inquired.
“He has a son named Chad, who is a typical playboy and often goes out to revel.” Shadow Fifteen responded.
“Is that so?” Azure Dragon’s eyes lit up, “In that case, it’s easy!”
He then turned to Billy, “Boss, give us your orders, how do we proceed with this?”
“Mr Billy, from what we know, Westin Ayala is already at the half step into the ninth-rank Sacred Realm.” Shadow Fifteen added.
“And he also commands two to three hundred thousand Crimson Flame Praetorian Guards, and his relationship with the imperial family is passable.”
“If we easily mess with his son, I’m afraid he…”
“There’s nothing to worry about, just get it done!” Ian Blade interrupted.
“You have someone keep a close eye on Chad. The moment he leaves the Praetorian Guard’s headquarters, report to me immediately!” Billy instructed after some thought.
“Mr Billy, about Westin Ayala…” Shadow Fifteen still had concerns.
“It’s fine, just do as I instructed!” Billy cut him off.
“Furthermore, inform the shadows in the palace to arrange for someone to come out and see me today. I want to understand the situation in the palace.”
“Understood!” Shadow Fifteen responded respectfully.
He then bid farewell to Casey and the others before leaving the room.
“Billy Boy, judging from those two seniors from the Blood and Devil Sects, the high-end forces of their sects lurking in this imperial city are not to be underestimated.”
After Shadow Fifteen left, Amber spoke up, “If things go smoothly, it’s very likely that there might be experts above the ninth-rank Sacred Realm. We need to be careful!”
“Understood!” Billy nodded.
He had already thought about it.
After a slight pause, he saw Stout and said, “Stout, distribute the spirit fruits and beast cores to everyone!”
“For the next few days, everyone should not go out and focus on cultivating in the courtyard to improve their cultivation as soon as possible!”
“Received!” everyone responded in unison.
…
In an unknown territory, there stood a massive palace covering an area of ten thousand square meters and towering nearly a hundred meters high, emitting a strong majestic aura.
At this moment, a figure walked into the hall from the entrance of the palace, standing in the center of the hall.
If Billy were present, he would recognize the person as Aubree.
Above Aubree’s head, there were two barriers with a diameter of about four to five meters, emitting a faint purple mist.
Upon closer inspection, one could see a graceful figure suspended in each barrier.
They were Harleen and Ivy.
At this moment, both of them had their eyes closed, as if sleeping.
A month ago, after Aubree brought them to this palace, they entered these barriers.
For the past month, they had been in this state, not even opening their eyes once.
Around each barrier, four black-robed elders were floating cross-legged in the air.
With palms pushing forward, strands of Chi power were infused onto the barrier.
“Elder Roth, how is it going?”
Soon, Aubree looked up at the sky and asked in a deep voice.
“It’s almost done!” aN elderly man responded.
“What do you think?” Aubree asked again.
“Crystal Spirit Physique! It’s once in a lifetime!” The elder’s voice was filled with excitement.
“Aubree, where did you find them from?”
“It was a lucky coincidence!” Aubree smiled rarely.
“If they don’t die, both of them will definitely grow to that legendary realm!” admiration flashed in the elder’s eyes.
“Got it!” Aubree nodded.
“From now on, take advantage of all resources to cultivating them. I want them to grow quickly!”
“Understood!” the elder responded.
“Let them wake up when it’s almost time!” Aubree continued.
“Okay!” the elder nodded.
Subsequently, all eight elders landed on the ground at the same time.
The two barriers disappeared simultaneously.
However, the faint purple mist inside did not dissipate; it continued to surround Harleen and Ivy.
They didn’t fall from the sky but remained suspended in mid-air.
Aubree waved her hand, creating two gusts of wind to slowly bring Harleen and Ivy down.
Then, they stopped about two meters above the ground.
Following this, Aubree’s eyes narrowed slightly as a ripple of spiritual power shot from the center of Harleen and Ivy’s brows.
In the next moment, both of them opened their eyes.
“Mm…”
After adjusting to the light around them, they each stood on the ground.
“Greetings, Aubree!” They both bowed respectfully.
“You don’t need to be so polite!” Aubree smiled and spoke.
“The first phase of your physical training is complete, starting tomorrow, the focus will be on improving your cultivation.”
“In addition, I will impart two martial skills suitable for you to practice.”
“Thank you, Aubree!” They bowed once again.
While speaking, both of them were secretly amazed.
Although they were not aware of what had happened in the past month, they could clearly sense significant changes in their bodies.
This change was not about their appearance but their physical fitness and the meridians within their bodies.
Moreover, they could distinctly feel that the spiritual energy surrounding them was much denser than before in the Forbidden Ruins Space.
Even in the Gathering Spirit Array in Skydragon City, the spiritual energy wasn’t as rich.
They were unsure if this was due to the naturally rich environment here or because their bodies had changed, enabling them to better absorb the spiritual energy in the surroundings.
“Don’t be so formal!” Aubree smiled, “Follow me!”
After that, she turned and walked towards the entrance of the main hall.
“Thank you, seniors!” Harleen and Ivy bowed to the eight black-robed elders before following Aubree out.
