“This question puzzles us as well!” Liana responded.
“The map started circulating in the City of the Unclaimed a year ago. Over the past year, it has changed hands many times, and no one knows where it originally came from.”
“Since it’s been out for a year, hasn’t anyone gone to the place marked on the map?” Amber asked.
“We’re not sure!” Liana shook her head. “The Alchemists’ Alliance isn’t interested in that so-called treasure map, so we haven’t paid much attention to it.”
“It’s been a thousand years, and now a map suddenly appears. Could it be a trap?” Casey couldn’t help but say.
“We can’t rule out that possibility!” Liana nodded.
“Stout, put it away for now!” Billy nodded thoughtfully.
After speaking, he continued to ask, “Chieftain Liana, in the City of the Unclaimed, besides the Yinsha Sect, what is the other major force?”
“Heavenly Scent Pavilion!” Liana replied.
“Heavenly Scent Pavilion?” Everyone was taken aback.
“Yes!” Liana nodded. “Heavenly Scent Pavilion is the name of a tavern, but it also represents a significant power!”
“A tavern?” Everyone was surprised again.
“Yes!” Liana responded. “But don’t underestimate Heavenly Scent Pavilion!”
“The Yinsha Sect has tried several times to incorporate Heavenly Scent Pavilion but has always failed.”
“Is that so?” Billy nodded slightly.
“Mr. Billy, the young lady has been waiting for you in Phoenix City. Before the people from Yinsha Sect arrive, let me take you to the teleportation channel,” Liana suggested.
“If we leave like this, the Yinsha Sect won’t let you off!” Billy interrupted her.
“Since we’re not in a hurry to go to Phoenix City, take us to the Yinsha Sect first!”
For him, since they had already clashed with the Yinsha Sect, it was better to resolve it thoroughly.
As he said, if they left the City of the Unclaimed now, the Alchemists’ Alliance would be unable to explain themselves and might be wiped out by the Yinsha Sect.
“Mr. Billy, the Sect Master of Yinsha Sect is at least at the fifth-rank Breaking Emptiness Realm. You…” Samuel started to say.
“I know what I’m doing!” Billy smiled and interrupted him. “Let’s go, take us there!”
“Alright then!” Samuel nodded.
Five minutes later, Samuel and Liana led a hundred strong members of the Alchemists’ Alliance and Billy’s group towards the Yinsha Sect.
In less than a quarter of an hour, they arrived at the foot of a mountain. Below them was a large manor, the main base of the Yinsha Sect.
“Who goes there!”
Sensing their presence, an elder’s voice came from within the manor.
Whoosh…
As soon as he finished speaking, nearly a hundred figures rose into the air.
“Who are you? How dare you come to the Yinsha Sect! Are you tired of living…”
The leading elder, Yale Yancy, a second-rank Breaking Emptiness Realm expert, shouted angrily. Before he finished speaking, he recognized Liana and Samuel and frowned deeply.
“Why are you here?”
“Surprised?” Liana asked calmly.
“Send a message to the Vice Sect Master and ask where he is!” Yale Yancy turned to a middle-aged man beside him.
He knew that the Vice Sect Master had gone to the Alchemists’ Alliance to find the person who took the map.
But now that Liana and her group were here, it was likely that the Vice Sect Master and his team had met a grim fate.
However, he still held onto a glimmer of hope because among these people, only Samuel was at the second-rank Breaking Emptiness Realm and shouldn’t be a match for the Vice Sect Master.
“Okay!” The middle-aged man responded.
“No need for that!” Billy said calmly. “He’s already waiting for you in hell!”
“What did you say?” Yale Yancy’s heart skipped a beat.
“You want the Netherworld Clan’s map?” Billy looked at him. “The map is with me. If you want it, come and get it!”
“You killed the Vice Sect Master?” Yale Yancy asked again.
“Enough talk! Call your Sect Master out to fight!” White Tiger said to him.
“Liana, does your Alchemists’ Alliance want to be exterminated?” Yale Yancy ignored White Tiger and turned to Liana angrily.
“That depends on whether you have the strength!” Liana replied.
“You don’t know your place…” Yale Yancy began to speak again.
Before he could finish, Billy flipped his wrist, and a furious blade appeared in his hand, sending out a Heavenly Fury Slash.
“Attack!” He shouted as he dashed forward.
Since it was already a fight to the death, it was better to act sooner rather than later.
“Alright!” Everyone followed suit.
“Kill!” The other side shouted as they charged forward.
At the same time, four or five hundred figures rose into the air from within the manor.
In their ranks were two Breaking Emptiness Realm experts, four half-step Breaking Emptiness Realm experts, and forty or fifty Perfection Emptiness Realm experts, half of whom were in the mid-to-late stages of Perfection Emptiness Realm.
Among the hundred members of the Alchemists’ Alliance brought by Liana, besides Samuel, there was one first-rank Breaking Emptiness Realm expert and two half-step Breaking Emptiness Realm experts.
Additionally, there were about twenty-five Perfection Emptiness Realm experts. With Harleen and Casey’s group included, both sides were evenly matched in terms of Perfection Emptiness Realm strength.
As for those below Perfection Emptiness Realm on the other side, although they were numerous, they posed no threat to Azure Dragon and Azure Fang’s group.
Billy’s Heavenly Fury Slash was blocked by an imprint from Yale Yancy.
Without any pause, Yale Yancy raised his hand and sent a violent wave of energy towards Billy.
Billy didn’t intend to engage in a prolonged battle. He immediately formed a Phantom Blade Technique and slashed out.
“Hmm?!”
Halfway through his charge, Yale Yancy sensed a deathly aura enveloping him.
Without thinking twice, he quickly dodged to the side. His reaction was fast enough that only his arm was grazed by the blade’s edge.
After one slash, Billy didn’t stop and charged forward again.
“Daring to come to Yinsha Sect seeking death? I’ll put you to death!”
At that moment, a wave of destructive energy surged towards them.
The attacker was naturally Dalton Yancy, the Sect Master of Yinsha Sect!
A half-step into sixth-rank Breaking Emptiness Realm!
Although Billy reacted immediately, he was still thrown back hundreds of meters by the shockwave’s aftermath, spitting blood into the air.
A fifth-rank Breaking Emptiness Realm expert indeed lived up to their reputation!
“Sect Master, Vice Sect Master is dead! The map is with him!” Yale Yancy shouted loudly at this moment.
“You handle the others!” Dalton Yancy said coldly before charging at Billy again.
“Alright!” Yale Yancy responded before turning towards Samuel.
“Boy, hand over the map!” In an instant, Dalton Yancy appeared not far from Billy and reached out towards him.
The next moment, Billy felt the space around him distort violently as if it would tear him apart.
Billy summoned all his strength and executed another Phantom Blade Technique. The space tore open with a crack, and the surrounding force dissipated instantly.
“I underestimated you!” Dalton Yancy’s pupils shrank slightly. “Let’s see if you can handle this next move!”
