A loud crash echoed as White Feather was sent flying back a thousand meters, his breath chaotic, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth.
Though White Feather’s combat power was strong, there was a significant gap between them, making it hard to contend.
However, White Feather didn’t pause for long. After another cry, he charged forward again with unstoppable momentum.
“Courting death!” Tucker Aguirre didn’t hesitate either, a bolt of lightning flashing out.
The result was predictable; White Feather was sent flying again, his breath weakening further.
This time, however, Tucker Aguirre was pushed back several dozen meters.
“I underestimated you; you can still push me back!” Tucker Aguirre’s eyes narrowed slightly. “If your soul were fully restored, I might not be your match!”
Hearing Tucker Aguirre’s words, White Feather let out a disdainful cry, as if to say, “Shameless! If my soul were fully restored, I could defeat you with a breath!”
“Unfortunately, in your current state, you can probably only exert sixty to seventy percent of your power at most?” Tucker Aguirre continued. “I’ll give you one last chance. Submit to me, or you will die today…”
Before he could finish speaking, White Feather spat out several nearly solid energy balls.
“You don’t know what’s good for you!”
Tucker Aguirre frowned. “In that case, give me your beast core!”
As he spoke, he disappeared from his original spot.
When he reappeared, he was two to three hundred meters away from White Feather, and an intricate mark shot towards White Feather.
White Feather showed no intention of retreating and charged at him with a cry.
The result was obvious; White Feather was sent flying once more.
This time, his combat power dropped by twenty to thirty percent, and a large amount of blood gushed from his mouth.
“White Feather, don’t fight him head-on; you’re no match for him!” Opal’s voice reached White Feather’s ears.
Hearing Opal’s words, White Feather, who had been about to charge again, finally stopped.
Then, he flapped his wings and flew to the side.
“Trying to escape? Too late!” Tucker Aguirre said. “Today, you have only two outcomes: submit or die!”
As he spoke, he released powerful spiritual power towards White Feather, intending to imprison him.
But the next moment, surprise appeared on his face.
His spiritual power had no effect on White Feather.
“Interesting!”
Tucker Aguirre retracted his spiritual power and chased after him. He was now very interested in White Feather and wouldn’t let him escape.
Without his intervention, the pressure on Sky City lessened significantly.
Although the battle still favored the Holy Heaven Sect, as their Otherworldly Realm experts outnumbered those of Sky City by several,
Sky City’s people at least had a fighting chance now. Before, they didn’t even have the qualification to fight desperately!
“Fight them!”
Seeing White Feather lead Tucker Aguirre away, someone in Sky City shouted angrily.
“Fight!” Many others echoed simultaneously.
Intense clashes sounded in the void.
Meanwhile, White Feather had flown dozens of kilometers away.
“You can’t escape!” Tucker Aguirre’s voice rang out again as a mark shot towards White Feather.
White Feather didn’t clash head-on but flapped his wings to dodge to the side.
“Let’s see where you run!”
Tucker Aguirre said in a deep voice again.
He then squinted his eyes slightly and waved his hand, forming a barrier that enveloped both of them.
At the moment the barrier formed, a shadow flashed in from outside.
It was none other than Billy, returning from the pool!
Seeing Billy suddenly appear in front of him, White Feather let out a joyful cry.
But after a slight pause, as if realizing the danger here, he quickly shook his head and cried out.
“Don’t worry, White Feather. It’s fine!” Billy smiled faintly at him.
“Who are you?!” Tucker Aguirre was slightly stunned by the sudden appearance of another person.
“You don’t recognize me?” Billy responded calmly. “Didn’t your Holy Heaven Sect come to Sky City specifically to find me?”
“Hmm?!” Hearing Billy’s words, Tucker Aguirre’s pupils contracted slightly. “You’re Billy?”
“Congratulations, you guessed right!” Billy shrugged.
“Haha, I’m surprised you dare to come here willingly to die!” Tucker Aguirre laughed coldly.
After speaking, he scanned Billy with his spiritual power.
The next moment, his brows furrowed. “You’re not Billy!”
“What do you mean?” Billy asked back.
“Besides a Spiritual Line Origin in your body, there’s nothing else. Let alone that sacred artifact!” Tucker Aguirre replied in a deep voice.
“Idiot!” Billy retorted. “That only shows your cultivation is too low to sense its presence!”
As he spoke, he was slightly surprised that even with Tucker Aguirre’s cultivation level, he couldn’t sense the treasure’s presence in his body.
“Impossible!” Tucker Aguirre frowned again.
“Even if it’s a sacred artifact from a higher civilization, if it’s in your body, I should be able to sense it!”
“I called you an idiot and you still don’t believe it!” Billy looked at him dismissively.
Then he pointed at White Feather. “Since you’re so great, let me ask you: can you detect White Feather’s level?”
Tucker Aguirre: “…”
He didn’t know how to respond because he indeed couldn’t detect White Feather’s level!
“Why aren’t you talking? Aren’t you supposed to be great?” Billy smiled faintly.
He already knew the answer without asking.
White Feather and the treasure in his body, as well as the white-robed man he met in the foggy forest back then, were all from the same higher civilization.
Since Tucker Aguirre couldn’t sense the treasure in his body, it was certain he couldn’t sense White Feather’s cultivation either.
“Kid, I’ll believe you for now!” Tucker Aguirre looked at Billy.
“I’ll give you a chance. Seal your own power and come back with me to Holy Heaven Sect. Maybe you’ll have a chance to live!”
“Do you believe what you’re saying?” Billy glanced at him. “After extracting the treasure from my body, would you still let me live?”
“Kid, you…” Tucker Aguirre began again.
“By the way, if you can’t sense the treasure’s presence, what good would taking me back do?” Billy interrupted him again.
“That’s not for you to worry about!” Tucker Aguirre continued. “If you don’t want to surrender yourself willingly, I’ll do it myself…”
“Aren’t you curious why I willingly entered your barrier?” Billy interrupted him once more.
“I am curious. Tell me?” Tucker Aguirre responded.
He was indeed curious; he didn’t know where Billy’s confidence came from.
“What if I told you I came here specifically to kill you? Would you believe it?” Billy said calmly.
