“Sir, do you take me for an idiot, or are you the idiot yourself?”
Stout looked at the other person and clicked his tongue. “You can actually say something like that?”
“Would you consider it?” Neil Armstrong ignored Stout and continued to look at Billy.
“There’s something you might not know. As far as I understand, many people from the seventh-tier star domain are already heading to The Wilderness…”
“Thanks, but the matter of the Nine Dragons Cauldron is none of Heaven Alliance’s concern!” Billy interrupted him.
“You’d better seriously consider my suggestion!” Neil Armstrong said once more before turning to Jennifer. “We will meet again soon. Farewell!”
After speaking, he led his two followers away.
“Ma’am, what exactly happened with the Demonic Clan ten thousand years ago?” Casey asked Jennifer after they landed.
“It’s a long story!” Jennifer’s thoughts drifted back to ten thousand years ago.
She then spent about fifteen minutes briefly recounting the events of that time.
After hearing her account, Billy and the others had a general understanding.
The Demonic Clan suffered that calamity partly because Heaven Alliance feared they couldn’t suppress the Demonic Clan and wanted to nip them in the bud. Another reason so many in the Demonic Clan died was that Jennifer killed a core member of Heaven Alliance, which was the catalyst. The reason was absurd; the other party wanted to force himself on her.
As the young lady of the Demonic Clan back then, Jennifer was a renowned beauty. Her current state was due to that battle. She was nearly dead, but thanks to the mystic arts of several elders from the Demonic Clan, she barely survived.
However, she lost her powers and her body functions were greatly affected, leading to her current condition.
The hunchbacked old man who had been guarding here was Jennifer’s half-brother. Like Jennifer, he also narrowly escaped death back then.
“It seems there are no good people in Heaven Alliance!” Judge frowned.
“They’re just individuals acting in their own interests!” Soul Chaser replied.
“True!” Judge nodded.
“Ma’am, what is your purpose in bringing Boss here?” Casey asked after some thought.
“I want to borrow his blade!” Jennifer responded.
“Borrow Boss’s blade?” Stout was puzzled. “Are your people also locked by Millennium Black Iron?”
“No!” Jennifer shook her head and looked at Billy. “Consider it. If you’re willing to help, I’ll take you to the sealed place to try. If not, you can leave now!”
“Are you sure his blade can break that seal?” The hunchbacked old man’s eyes gleamed.
“Sixty percent chance!” Jennifer responded.
“That’s not low; it’s worth a try!” The hunchbacked old man replied again.
“Ma’am, let’s give it a try!” Billy said to Jennifer.
Although he didn’t know much about the Demonic Clan, through his interactions with Jennifer over this period, he had a general understanding of her. Just considering Jennifer’s help to him was enough reason for him to act.
“Thank you!” Jennifer replied.
“Ma’am, it’s a small favor. I don’t even know if I can do it yet!” Billy responded.
“Heaven Alliance people might come again. Stay here and contact me if anything happens!” Jennifer turned to the hunchbacked old man.
“Alright!” The hunchbacked old man nodded.
Then, Jennifer led Billy and the others and jumped into an ancient well.
The ancient well was the entrance to a teleportation channel. Shortly after entering, they felt dizzy. After about two minutes, they found themselves in a vast open space with no end in sight. The light was relatively dim, and there was a faint mist with visibility only around three or four kilometers.
To their surprise, there was a tomb built with large stones several hundred meters ahead. Besides that, the entire space was empty!
“Ma’am, what is that?” Azure Dragon asked Jennifer.
“That is the entrance to where the Demonic Clan is sealed!” Jennifer responded. “Only by breaking this entrance can we lift the seal!”
“It’s just a few stone slabs; can’t we handle it?” Judge drew his large knife. “Let me try!”
“I’ll do it!” Ian Blade stepped forward and slashed with all his strength.
Ding!
A crisp sound echoed as sparks flew from the stone slab. But that was it! Not even a scratch was left on the stone slab!
Ian Blade, now at half-step Supreme Ancestry Realm, could easily deal with a third-rank Supreme Ancestry Realm with one slash, yet he couldn’t even leave a mark on the stone slab!
“This is exaggerated!” Stout clicked his tongue. “Is it because of an array?”
“Boss, can you sense any formation lines?” Vermilion Bird asked Billy.
“I can’t sense anything!” Billy shook his head.
With his current expertise in arrays, there were only two possibilities for not sensing any formation lines: either there was no array at all, or the person who set it up had reached an extremely terrifying level! Here, it was clearly the latter!
“Ma’am, do you mean Boss’s blade can break this array?” Casey asked Jennifer.
“We can only try!” Jennifer responded.
“Then let’s try!” Billy replied.
He stepped forward and slashed with all his might.
The blade struck the stone slab with a dull sound, shaking the entire tomb several times. But that was it; there was no other reaction!
“It didn’t work?” White Tiger and others were stunned simultaneously.
Jennifer’s eyes gleamed as she saw this scene. She knew better than anyone that before today, even a late-stage Prime Source Realm expert couldn’t shake that tomb at all! But Billy’s casual slash caused such a commotion; there was hope!
“Billy, try using your bloodline power!” Purple Spirit’s voice echoed in Billy’s mind.
“Is it feasible?” Billy asked in his mind.
“Give it a try!” Purple Spirit continued.
“Alright!” Billy nodded.
He then activated his bloodline power and formed ‘Heaven Killer,’ slashing out!
A thunderous roar echoed through the entire space, deafening everyone. Simultaneously, the entire tomb shattered like paper-mache, with stone fragments flying everywhere.
“It worked?!” Casey and others shouted simultaneously.
“It really worked?!” Jennifer murmured as she stared ahead thoughtfully. “She didn’t lie to me!”
“Ma’am, who told you Boss could break this array?” Night Orchid asked curiously.
Billy and others also looked at Jennifer; they wanted to know too.
“Sanaa!” Jennifer didn’t hide it anymore.
“Sanaa?” Everyone was puzzled.
“Yes!” Jennifer nodded.
“Who is she? How does she know so much?” White Tiger couldn’t help but ask.
“She told Netherworld Palace people that Boss’s blade could cut off their ancestor’s Millennium Black Iron!”
“She is indeed mysterious…” Azure Dragon replied.
Before Azure Dragon could finish speaking, an extremely terrifying aura swept over from thousands of meters away, making everyone shiver involuntarily.
“Retreat quickly!” Jennifer shouted.
