White Tiger looked at the other party. “It’s a waste that you’re not an actor!”
“I’m telling the truth!” The staff member glanced at White Tiger and then turned to Joel Wooler.
“Elder Joel, if you don’t believe me, you can ask the other passengers. They witnessed the whole process.”
“You are quite clever!” Billy said calmly, looking at the other party.
The other party suggested that Joel Wooler ask the bystanders, which seemed fair on the surface.
But after the fight broke out, the bystanders had retreated far away and didn’t know what exactly happened.
They only saw people from the Quicksand Sect being killed by Billy and his group. Later, Kaiden Griffin brought people out to confront them and was also killed.
So, whether they asked or not, the result would be the same.
“Indeed… yes…” Cooper Chapman, lying on the ground, spoke with difficulty.
“If I were you, I’d keep my mouth shut!” Billy glanced at him.
Then he pointed to Kaiden Griffin on the ground and looked at Joel Wooler.
“You don’t need to ask. If you really want to know the truth, just check the storage ring on your elder’s hand.”
The storage ring had been released from its owner, so Billy had used his spiritual power to search it earlier. It contained nearly a hundred thousand king-grade spirit stones.
This was clearly abnormal.
“What do you mean?” The staff member’s eyes flashed with panic upon hearing Billy’s words.
Before he could finish speaking, Joel Wooler raised his hand towards Kaiden Griffin’s body and grabbed the storage ring.
Then he used his spiritual power to scan it.
After a while, he withdrew his spiritual power, his face showing no emotion.
“Elder Joel…” The staff member looked at Joel Wooler with some trepidation.
“Give me your storage ring!” Joel Wooler interrupted him.
“Elder Joel, I…” The staff member was stunned.
But before he could finish speaking, the storage ring on his hand was already in Joel Wooler’s possession.
“Do you have anything to explain?”
Joel Wooler forcibly released the ownership of the storage ring and checked the spirit stones inside. Then he looked at the staff member and spoke calmly.
Although his tone was calm, a cold killing intent was faintly emanating from him.
The staff member shivered and immediately knelt down.
He then spoke tremblingly, “Elder Joel, let me explain. It was… Elder Kaiden who forced me to do it. If I didn’t agree, he…”
He knew very well that this kind of behavior, which ignored the rules of the chamber of commerce and lined one’s own pockets, was a red line for the chamber of commerce. Once discovered, it was a capital offense.
Originally, he thought today’s matter was trivial.
As long as they killed these people, there would be no evidence. Then Kaiden Griffin could make up any reason to report to the higher-ups, and the matter would be over.
But things didn’t go as planned. He never expected Billy and his group to be so powerful that even Kaiden Griffin was no match for them.
When Kaiden Griffin was killed, he knew things had spiraled out of control.
Before he could finish speaking, Joel Wooler casually waved his hand, and the man turned into a cloud of blood mist, leaving nothing behind.
“Not bad, you know how to clean house!” Vermilion Bird said lightly and pointed to Cooper Chapman from Quicksand Sect. “What about him?”
“No… don’t kill me… I…” Cooper Chapman spoke with difficulty.
With a muffled sound, Cooper Chapman also turned into a cloud of blood mist.
Seeing this scene, the bystanders in the distance gasped in shock.
“It seems your Akabuchi Chamber of Commerce isn’t completely rotten yet…” Azure Dragon began to speak.
“Now, let’s talk about our matter!” Joel Wooler interrupted him.
“What do you mean?” Azure Dragon was slightly stunned.
“In light of the circumstances and since you acted in self-defense, you can keep your cultivation!” Joel Wooler ignored Azure Dragon and looked at Billy.
“But those who killed members of my Akabuchi Chamber of Commerce must each leave an arm behind. Then this matter can be settled!”
“What do you mean?” White Tiger frowned.
“Although Kaiden Griffin was at fault, he was still a member of our chamber of commerce. It’s not up to outsiders to enforce our rules!” Joel Wooler continued to look at Billy.
“What if I refuse?” Billy’s eyes narrowed slightly.
“I advise you to reconsider…” Joel Wooler responded coldly.
“White Feather, kill him!” Before Joel Wooler could finish speaking, Billy spoke in a deep voice.
As he spoke, he activated his bloodline power and formed a Celestial Black Finger to strike out.
He no longer wanted to waste words with the other party.
In this world where the strong prey on the weak, actions speak louder than words.
As soon as Billy spoke, White Feather charged forward.
“Billy Boy, I’ll join you!” Opal also spoke up and prepared to attack.
“Opal, you don’t need to fight. Take everyone back!” Billy shouted back.
Hearing his words, Opal didn’t insist and led Amber and Casey’s group back a distance.
“Courting death!” Joel Wooler frowned and shouted angrily.
He raised his hand and sent out two gusts of wind to meet them.
With a loud bang, both Joel Wooler and Billy were pushed back several steps, their breaths slightly disordered.
Joel Wooler hadn’t expected Billy to suddenly attack and was caught off guard. It was difficult for him to handle their combined assault in such a short time.
Just as Joel Wooler was trying to steady himself, White Feather launched several nearly tangible waves of air with thunderous force.
“Get lost!”
Joel Wooler roared angrily and formed a mysterious seal with his hands to counterattack.
Both attacks exploded simultaneously. White Feather slid back several meters while Joel Wooler retreated several steps again.
At the same time, a sharp blade light from Billy left a deep cut on Joel Wooler’s arm.
“You actually injured me. Not bad!” Joel Wooler glanced at the wound on his arm before changing his tone.
“I gave you a chance, but you insisted on going your own way. Don’t blame me!”
As he finished speaking, an overwhelming aura erupted from him, making everyone on the airship feel suffocated.
“If you can withstand this move, I’ll let you leave!”
With a deep voice, Joel Wooler formed a tangible spear that shot towards Billy and White Feather.
The spear wasn’t very fast, but it caused ripples in the air as it passed through, creating a faintly distorted effect.
Even though Billy didn’t want to confront it head-on, he found himself unable to dodge it as if he were locked onto by the spear. He could only defend by attacking.
White Feather sensed the power of this move. With a cry, it charged directly at the spear to relieve some pressure off Billy.
“White Feather, be careful!” Billy couldn’t help but shout.
He had a premonition that White Feather might not be able to withstand this move.
“Elder Joel, please show mercy!”
At this moment, an elder’s voice came from outside.
