“Even your Sovereign wouldn’t dare speak like that in front of my sister. You must be tired of living!” The little girl shouted towards the courtyard gate.
Owen Cunningham stood there, opening his mouth as if to say something, but then closed it again. He knew he wasn’t a match for the woman in green, even though he didn’t know her exact strength.
“Ladies and gentlemen, it’s time for you to decide. Will you stay or leave?” The little girl continued, looking at Billy and his group.
“Sorry to bother you,” Billy said to the woman in green, then turned to his group. “Let’s go, let’s get out of here.”
With that, he led everyone towards the gate.
“You’d rather go out and die than give me the Spirit Fruit? You really are…” the little girl continued.
“Rose, go back inside!” the woman in green interrupted sternly.
“Alright!” The little girl pouted and went back into the house.
Soon, Billy and his group walked out of the gate.
“So, you’ve decided to come out?” Owen Cunningham looked at Billy. “Do you know how you want to die for killing someone from Netherworld Palace?”
“Do you plan to do it here or somewhere else?” Billy asked calmly.
“Brave enough!” Owen Cunningham’s eyes flashed with a cold light. “Follow me!”
He led his people towards the back of the small town. Clearly, he didn’t dare to fight here, fearing they might destroy the courtyard and face severe consequences.
Billy and his group followed. There was no point in hiding; it was inevitable, and Billy never liked hiding anyway.
Soon, they arrived at an open area at the foot of a mountain behind the town. The people from Netherworld Palace were already waiting there.
“Azure Dragon, Azure Fang, stay here!” Billy instructed Azure Dragon and his group.
Then he led Harleen and Tommy towards their opponents.
“Are you really going to resist to the end? You should know…” Owen Cunningham began.
Before he could finish, Billy charged at him, activating the Heavenly Xuan Array Compass. Against a second-rank Supreme Ancestry Realm opponent, he had no chance without it.
“Hmm?!” Owen Cunningham looked around, frowning slightly. “This is Heavenly Xuan Space? You actually have a Heavenly Xuan Array Compass?”
Billy didn’t waste words, raising his hand and slashing down with Heavenly Fury Slash!
“You seek death!” Owen Cunningham roared, forming a seal with his hand to meet the attack.
After a loud crash, both were thrown back hundreds of meters. From the distance, it was clear Billy was slightly inferior.
In this space, Owen Cunningham could exert eighth-rank Holy Ancestry Realm power. Billy, even with his bloodline power activated, could only match seventh-rank Holy Ancestry Realm with one Heavenly Fury Slash.
“You really think using the Heavenly Xuan Array Compass makes you my match? Dream on…” Owen Cunningham glanced at Billy.
His answer was a sharper blade light from Phantom Blade Technique!
The void split open as the blade slashed down with thunderous momentum.
“If you want to die, I’ll grant your wish!” Owen Cunningham shouted, charging forward.
But in the next moment, he realized who was truly seeking death. The blade light from Phantom Blade Technique easily tore through his defenses and struck him, leaving a deep gash in the ground.
“How… how is this possible…” Owen Cunningham looked down at the bloodline on his body, struggling to speak before his body split in two and collapsed with an expression of disbelief. He never expected he couldn’t even withstand Billy’s second strike!
What he didn’t know was that Billy’s bloodline power now elevated him to second-rank Holy Ancestry Realm, and Tommy had enhanced his blade skills significantly. At full strength, one Phantom Blade could kill a half-step Holy Ancestry Realm!
Billy then waved his hand to dispel Heavenly Xuan Space.
The ongoing battles paused as everyone turned to see the two halves of Owen Cunningham’s body on the ground. They were stunned by the surreal sight. Even Tommy and his companions were shocked!
A second-rank Supreme Ancestry Realm expert defeated in less than a minute? Unbelievable!
“You… you killed Lord South Yama?!” A ninth-rank Holy Ancestry Realm elder near Billy shouted angrily. He and another ninth-rank Holy Ancestry Realm were attacking The Scholar together; now his companion was dead, and even Owen Cunningham was gone.
Ignoring The Scholar, he charged at Billy in rage. But before he took a few steps, a blade light flashed past him. He stumbled a few more steps before collapsing into two bloody halves.
“Damn you!” A first-rank Supreme Ancestry Realm Underworld Lord roared and turned to charge at Billy.
“You should worry about yourself first!” Annalise snorted coldly, blocking him with a surge of sword energy.
“Kill!” Billy commanded as he charged at the remaining early-stage Holy Ancestry Realm opponents. None could withstand a single strike from him; within moments, they all lay dead.
Meanwhile, The Scholar and Annalise had already killed one Underworld Lord together.
The remaining Underworld Lord clashed with Tommy before retreating a thousand meters. Without hesitation, he turned to flee.
“Since you’re here, stay!” Tommy’s eyes narrowed as he waved his hand, erecting a barrier wall ahead of the fleeing elder.
“Break!” The elder shouted, shooting a black spear at the barrier wall.
Both the spear and barrier wall exploded, momentarily halting the elder’s movement. In that instant, Annalise and The Scholar closed in from behind.
A sword and blade flashed past him, tearing two dark rifts in the void.
“Damn it!” The elder’s pupils shrank in fear. Unable to dodge, he raised his hand to block with a black spear against their attacks.
After a loud crash, both the spear and Annalise’s sword light shattered. Simultaneously, The Scholar’s blade light flashed past his neck, sending his head flying as blood spurted out.
Stout began collecting storage rings. “Wow, this Netherworld Palace is something!” He returned excitedly with several storage rings.
“What’s inside?” Judge asked eagerly.
“A lot of beast cores!” Stout wiped his mouth. “At least two or three are as good as that giant beast’s core!”
“Really?” Judge’s eyes lit up.
“You killed all of Netherworld Palace’s people?” Rose walked over, shaking her head. “You’ve caused big trouble; Sovereign won’t let you off easily!”
“Girl, can I ask you some questions?” Harleen asked Rose.
“Sure,” Rose nodded and raised her index finger. “One question per ten-thousand-year Spirit Fruit. Don’t worry; I won’t charge for questions I can’t answer.”
