“Billy, cripple his cultivation!” Billy pointed at Beckett Goff and commanded.
“Alright!” Casey raised his hand and struck.
“No!” Beckett Goff screamed in terror.
Although he was at the Entering Dao Realm, he was currently immobilized by a powerful artifact.
Before he could finish his plea, Casey’s energy wave entered Beckett’s abdomen and exploded, shattering his dantian instantly.
“Ah…” Beckett Goff cried out in agony.
Meanwhile, the white mist above Billy’s head re-entered his body.
“Thank you, senior!” Billy communicated mentally.
He had dared to confront the white-haired elder from the Whitney family because he had already spoken with the man in white within him. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have had the courage to face a mid-stage Entering Dao Realm expert.
Initially, he had pleaded for help from the man in white, but was ignored. No matter how Billy reasoned or appealed emotionally, the man in white refused. It was understandable; someone of his caliber wouldn’t easily become Billy’s enforcer. He only agreed after Billy promised him something in return.
“Don’t forget what you promised me,” the man in white reminded.
“Rest assured, senior. I will fulfill my promise,” Billy replied.
“Alright, don’t disturb me anymore. These Entering Dao Realm souls are weak but better than nothing.”
After speaking, the man in white ignored Billy and began absorbing the souls of Shane Goff and his companions.
Soon after, Billy and his group landed on the ground.
“Where are they?” Billy walked up to the half-dead Beckett Goff and asked calmly.
“They… they’re in Black Domain Dungeon…” Beckett Goff confessed without any defiance. He knew that resisting now would only bring more suffering; it was better to be honest.
“Where exactly?” Casey asked sternly.
“In the basement of that domed building over there…” Beckett Goff pointed weakly to a nearby location.
“Boss, I’ll check it out!” Casey said to Billy and headed towards the domed building. Harleen, Ivy, and Azure Dragon followed closely behind.
About ten minutes later, they returned with Vermilion Bird and White Tiger among others. Vermilion Bird and the others were all injured to varying degrees. Judge was the most severely wounded, covered in scars and barely alive.
“Boss!” Vermilion Bird and the others greeted upon arrival.
“Sit down; I’ll heal you,” Billy said, a cold killing intent flashing in his eyes. If they had targeted him directly, he could accept it since he had killed the Whitney family’s eldest son. But targeting those around him crossed a line. He had already marked the Whitney family for retribution.
“Aubree, please secure Black Domain City so no one from Black Domain Alliance escapes,” Billy instructed Aubree next.
“Got it!” Aubree nodded and flew into the air. With a wave of her hand, a massive barrier enveloped Black Domain City. Given her cultivation level, setting up such a barrier was effortless.
“Casey, keep an eye on him; don’t let him die,” Billy ordered regarding Beckett Goff.
“Understood!” Casey nodded in response.
Billy then began healing everyone with Opal’s help. Fortunately, he had plenty of supreme-grade healing pills that were effective for their injuries. After about two hours of effort, Vermilion Bird and the others’ conditions stabilized.
“Rest for a while,” Billy said before approaching Beckett Goff again. “Your people went to Canyon View City to capture someone; who was your contact?”
“I… I don’t know; I wasn’t involved…” Beckett Goff stammered.
Crack!
A crisp sound echoed as Beckett Goff’s right ankle was crushed underfoot.
“Ah…” Beckett Goff screamed in pain. “Can you talk now?” Billy asked calmly.
“I… I really don’t know…” Beckett Goff trembled. “I only know there was someone in Canyon View City helping us, but I don’t know who…”
Another crack followed as Beckett Goff’s kneecap shattered too.
“Ah…” Beckett Goff fainted from the pain but was quickly revived by a flick of Billy’s finger wind.
“Don’t… don’t hit me anymore; I’ll talk…”
“Who is it?” Billy asked again.
“It’s… it’s someone from Akabuchi Chamber of Commerce…” Beckett Goff finally revealed with difficulty.
“Hmm?!” Billy and his group were taken aback by this information.
“What did you say?” Lance Wooler frowned. “When did Akabuchi Chamber of Commerce start collaborating with Black Domain Alliance?”
“It wasn’t us who contacted them directly…” Beckett Goff continued. “It was arranged by someone from Whitney family… They told us to go to Canyon View City and find people from Akabuchi Chamber of Commerce who would help us capture our targets…”
“Damn them!” Lance Wooler cursed again before looking back at Beckett Goff. “Who exactly?”
“I don’t know…” Beckett Goff shook his head again.
“Lies!” Azure Dragon drew his sword threateningly.
“I’m telling you! I really don’t know… I wasn’t involved…” Beckett Goff cried out desperately.
“Execute him!” Billy waved dismissively. He could tell from Beckett’s eyes that he genuinely didn’t know more. Since he had no further use, there was no reason to let him live.
“Spare me…” Beckett Goff pleaded one last time before his head was severed by a swift blade strike, blood spraying like a fountain. Billy then grabbed Beckett’s storage ring into his hand.
Billy led his group through Black Domain City, killing everyone above Holy Realm cultivation level who had blood on their hands. Those below Holy Realm were crippled instead. They also raided Black Domain Alliance’s treasury and found it filled with spirit stones and various cultivation resources comparable to Holy Heaven Sect’s reserves. After loading everything into their storage rings within half an hour, they flew out of the city together.
Thus ended both Black Domain Alliance and Holy Heaven Sect’s reigns in Akabuchi star domain’s history.
