Chapter 1716: Target – City Lord’s Mansion

Book:Lord Came Back From The Battlefield Published:2024-7-13

The City Lord’s Mansion had sent two to three hundred people to the Phoenix Feather Sect today. After the previous battle, fewer than two hundred remained.
Most of these people were at the Holy Realm or below, so under the full assault of Billy and his group, they couldn’t hold out for more than ten minutes before all falling.
Without exception, they were all killed!
The Deputy City Lord, although a first-rank Entering Dao Realm cultivator, stood no chance against White Feather. After two rounds, White Feather’s energy blast sent him flying into the air, breaking all his bones and meridians. He hit the ground and died without uttering a word.
Seeing the scene, everyone from the Phoenix Feather Sect was petrified again.
Billy and his group were too young to possess such combat power; it was monstrous!
“Thank you for saving us. May I ask your name?” Phoebe Reid led the core members of the Phoenix Feather Sect to bow deeply before Billy.
“Billy,” he replied.
“Thank you, Mr. Billy!” Phoebe Reid bowed again.
“Thank you, Mr. Billy!” Lorenzo Reid and the others bowed simultaneously.
“Mr. Billy, you probably aren’t from Holy Heaven City. You should leave quickly!” Phoebe Reid pointed to the black-robed elder on the ground. “He was the Deputy City Lord of Holy Heaven City. Since you’ve killed him, the City Lord’s Mansion won’t let this go…”
“No worries,” Billy interrupted her with a wave of his hand.
“Mr. Billy, the City Lord’s Mansion is formidable, and they have Holy Heaven Sect backing them…” Phoebe Reid continued.
“If Holy Heaven Sect is destroyed, can your Phoenix Feather Sect control this city?” Billy interrupted again.
He hadn’t gone directly to the City Lord’s Mansion but came to the Phoenix Feather Sect first, clearly looking for a new ruler for the city. Without someone in charge, chaos would ensue.
“What?” The Phoenix Feather Sect members exclaimed in unison at Billy’s words.
“Mr. Billy, are you specifically targeting Holy Heaven Sect?” Lorenzo Reid asked after calming down slightly.
“Just answer if you can or can’t,” Billy responded.
“If Mr. Billy can truly take down Holy Heaven Sect, our Phoenix Feather Sect is confident we can control this city!” Phoebe Reid took a deep breath and replied. She paused before adding, “However, Holy Heaven Sect is incredibly powerful…”
“You don’t need to worry about that,” Billy interrupted her again. “Prepare to move into the City Lord’s Mansion!”
“If Mr. Billy can help us regain control of Holy Heaven City, I will be forever grateful and will follow any command!” Phoebe Reid declared.
After their conversation, both sides had a preliminary impression of each other. From their expressions and eyes, Billy could tell they weren’t saints but weren’t evil either; their character seemed passable.
While Billy observed them, Phoebe Reid and her people also observed him. Their first impression was acceptable.
“Wait for my news!” Billy said before leading his group away into the sky.
“Sect Master, who are they?” A Phoenix Feather Sect elder asked Lorenzo Reid after Billy’s group left.
“I don’t know,” Lorenzo Reid shook his head. “They likely come from another star.”
He then turned to Phoebe Reid. “Mother, what do you think?”
“Immediately send some people to the City Lord’s Mansion; I want updates on their situation at all times!” Phoebe Reid ordered.
“Understood!” Lorenzo Reid responded and instructed an elder beside him.
“Also, gather everyone and be ready for orders!” Phoebe Reid continued.
“Understood!” Lorenzo Reid nodded again.
Ten minutes later, Billy’s group arrived above the City Lord’s Mansion by air.
“Insolent!” An old man’s voice echoed from within the courtyard as a white-robed man shot into the sky.
Dozens of figures followed from different corners of the courtyard, each with a strong aura; even the weakest was at early-stage Holy Realm cultivation.
“Who are you to trespass in the City Lord’s Mansion? You must be tired of living!” The leading old man glared at Billy angrily. He had every reason to be furious! No one had ever dared to fly into the City Lord’s Mansion; it was a blatant disregard for their authority!
Before this, even flying within Holy Heaven City was considered a provocation punishable by severe penalties. What Billy and his group did was a capital offense!
“Tell your city lord to come out!” Casey said calmly.
“Insolent!” Another old man shouted angrily. “How dare you speak disrespectfully of our city lord!”
As he spoke, he raised his hand and sent a gust of wind towards Casey. Before his attack could land, a sword light flashed, and his head flew off with blood spurting like a fountain. His face showed endless disbelief; he never imagined someone would dare kill him in the City Lord’s Mansion!
How dare they!
Opal had struck him down; he was only a ninth-rank Holy Realm cultivator and no match for her.
“Damn it!” The leading white-robed man roared. “Attack! Kill them all!”
Dozens of figures charged towards Billy’s group simultaneously with aggressive stances.
“Kill!” Billy commanded sternly.
“Got it!” Casey and others dashed forward instantly.
“You brat! How dare you act recklessly in the City Lord’s Mansion? I’ll skin you alive today!” The white-robed man roared at Billy before disappearing from sight and reappearing two or three hundred meters away from him. A fierce energy wave surged towards Billy like a tidal wave in mid-air.
White Feather screeched beside him but held back as instructed by Billy: “White Feather, I’ll handle this; keep an eye on others!”
Billy raised his hand and pointed towards his opponent; Celestial Black Finger clashed with his foe’s attack forcefully pushing both back by hundreds of meters each way-the old man being seventh-rank Otherworldly Realm while Billy using bloodline power could reach fourth-rank Otherworldly Realm-one Celestial Black Finger was enough to block his attack!
“You have some skill…” The white-robed man steadied himself but couldn’t finish speaking as Billy launched another attack-his hands moved rapidly sending out waves of energy blasts towards him-furious roars followed from both sides as they exchanged blows fiercely amidst turbulent waves crashing around them-each strike echoing through space like thunderclaps reverberating across heavens themselves…
After several rounds of fierce combat between them-Billy shouted loudly: “Take this palm strike if you want your life spared!”
As he spoke these words-he gathered full strength forming Arhat Palm Strike sending it crashing down upon opponent-a massive phantom hand covered sky darkening everything beneath its shadow-lightning flickered through clouds while storm winds howled creating an overwhelming aura that dominated entire battlefield…
