“The Wilderness people did this?” White Tiger frowned slightly.
“Other than The Wilderness, no one else would dare to attack Miss Sanaa,” Azure Fang nodded.
“I wonder if Harleen and Opal are safe!” Night Orchid also frowned.
“I’ll try contacting them!” Felicia said as she took out a sound transmission stone and sent a message.
However, after waiting for almost half an hour, there was still no response.
“Boss, The Wilderness people might be in Skylight City. Should we go there and check?” Casey asked Billy.
“Yes,” Billy’s expression turned serious.
“Don’t worry too much; your women will be fine!” A raspy voice came from behind them.
Everyone turned to look.
“It’s you?” They were slightly surprised to see the old woman with a cane they had met when they first entered the Silent Ruins Sky Realm.
“You all have surprised me!” The old woman remarked after briefly examining their cultivation levels.
In just two or three months, they had advanced nearly a whole realm!
“Senior, do you know where Harleen and the others went?” Night Orchid asked.
“I don’t know,” the old woman shook her head.
“Then how do you know they’re safe?” White Tiger questioned.
“They’re with Miss Sanaa. As long as she’s safe, they will be too,” the old woman replied.
“How do you know Miss Sanaa is safe?” White Tiger pressed.
“I’m guessing,” the old woman responded again.
“Don’t worry,” she continued, looking at Billy. “Even if The Wilderness people come, few can match Miss Sanaa.”
“Senior, do you know who Miss Sanaa is?” Billy asked.
“No,” the old woman shook her head decisively.
“Do you know her cultivation level?” Billy continued.
“No,” she shook her head again.
“Then how do you know The Wilderness people can’t harm her?” Azure Dragon asked.
“I have a feeling,” the old woman replied.
“Senior, we must part ways here. Until next time,” Billy said, looking at her.
“Are you going to Skylight City?” the old woman asked.
“Yes,” Billy nodded.
Although he had some confidence in Sanaa, he wasn’t entirely at ease without confirming Harleen and the others’ safety.
“I’m free right now. Can I join you to broaden my horizons?” the old woman asked.
“Of course,” Billy’s mouth twitched. With her cultivation level, she didn’t need him to take her to Skylight City!
He had secretly probed her cultivation level but got no response, just like last time.
Given Billy’s current cultivation level, he could easily detect anyone below the ninth-rank Supreme Ancestry Realm. This meant the old woman’s strength was likely above that level or she had some way of hiding it.
“Let’s go then,” the old woman said.
“Alright,” Billy nodded.
The group flew through the sky.
“Ma’am, do you know what comes after the Ancestry Realm?” Azure Dragon asked.
Billy and Casey were also interested and turned to listen.
They had wanted to ask Tommy and the others this question but had forgotten due to being busy.
“You don’t know?” The old woman was surprised. “After the Ancestry Realm is the Source Realm!”
“Source Realm?” everyone was taken aback.
“Yes,” she nodded. “Like the Ancestry Realm, it has three stages: Prime Source Realm, Returning Source Realm, and Supreme Source Realm, each with nine ranks.”
“Understood,” they nodded slightly.
“Senior, you must be at the Prime Source Realm, right?” Felicia asked.
“You guess,” the old woman replied.
“Ma’am, Miss Sanaa should also be at the Prime Source Realm, right?” Stout asked.
“I don’t know,” she shook her head. “No one here knows her cultivation level.”
“Alright,” Stout shrugged.
Before Stout could finish speaking, a powerful aura swept in from the horizon. Soon, six people appeared in the distance.
“Stop!” A man looked at Billy and his group and spoke.
As he spoke, he waved his hand, and an image of Billy appeared in mid-air.
“It’s him!” The man compared the image and pointed at Billy. “He’s Billy!”
The leading elder nodded and looked at Billy. “Is the Nine Dragons Cauldron with you?”
“It was before, but not anymore,” Billy replied.
“What do you mean?” The elder frowned.
“It was taken by someone from Skylight City,” Billy responded.
“Do you take us for fools?” The elder stared at Billy.
“You must be at the late stage of Supreme Ancestry Realm, right?” Billy continued. “If you don’t believe me, search my body.”
Without needing his reminder, the elder had already enveloped him with spiritual power. The others did the same but found nothing.
Billy had instructed Purple Spirit to hide herself and the Nine Dragons Cauldron’s aura completely!
“The Nine Dragons Cauldron really isn’t with you?” The elder frowned deeply after a while.
“Believe me now?” Billy asked.
“When did Skylight City people take it? Who did it?” The elder continued questioning.
“Just a day ago,” Billy replied. “I don’t know who exactly; I didn’t recognize them.”
“If you didn’t recognize them, how do you know they were from Skylight City?” The elder pressed further.
“He said so himself,” Billy answered. “He didn’t take me seriously and told me to find him in Skylight City if I wanted the Nine Dragons Cauldron.”
“What did he look like?” The man who spoke earlier asked.
Before he could finish speaking, the old woman with a cane waved her hand, and an image appeared in mid-air.
“Are you sure he took the Nine Dragons Cauldron?” The elder frowned at the image.
“Yes,” the old woman nodded. “Also, a piece of advice: he’s very powerful. If you go looking for him with just these few people, you’ll likely meet a grim fate…”
“That’s none of your concern!” The elder interrupted. “You better not be lying to me, or you’ll regret it!”
With that, he turned and left with his people.
“Senior, who was that person in the image you showed them?” Soul Chaser asked after they left.
“The Lord of Skylight City,” the old woman replied.
