“Leave now!” Bentley White took a deep breath before speaking.
For him, it was impossible to let Billy leave just like that!
But after the exchange with Sanaa earlier, he changed his mind!
Sanaa’s strength far exceeded his expectations. He feared that if he angered Sanaa, she might actually flatten Whitecloud Peak!
“Do you think that’s possible?” Billy responded.
“You better not push your luck. I let go of you for Miss Sanaa’s sake…” Bentley White frowned.
“There’s no need!” Sanaa interrupted coldly. “From now on, I have nothing to do with Whitecloud Manor!”
“Miss Sanaa…” Bentley White took another deep breath.
“If I were you, I’d let him into the manor to find his people!” Sanaa interrupted again.
“The ancestors have rules…” Bentley White continued.
“Master!” At this moment, a woman’s voice rang out.
As her words fell, eight women in white flew over, with two of them carrying a man in white-The Cloudwalker!
At this moment, his face was pale, his breath extremely weak, and blood constantly gushed from his mouth, staining his white robe.
He was in a semi-conscious state, barely clinging to life!
“Marcos!” Bentley White and Ricardo White shouted simultaneously and rushed forward.
Bentley White placed his hand on Marcos White’s back and infused him with strong Chi power.
After about fifteen minutes, Marcos White’s condition improved slightly.
“Marcos, what happened? Who hurt you?” Ricardo White asked his son.
“I… I don’t know…” Marcos White shook his head. “The four attackers wore black robes and masks. They didn’t say a word…”
“What was their purpose? Why did they hurt you?” Bentley White frowned slightly.
“They… they were after those four women!” Marcos White paused and looked at Billy. “You… you must be Billy. Your women were taken…”
“Now do you believe?” Sanaa looked at Bentley White coldly.
“Why did you capture his people?” Bentley White frowned again.
He genuinely didn’t know!
He hadn’t been involved in the manor’s affairs for a long time and only appeared when major events occurred, like today.
“I… I just wanted to invite them to Whitecloud Manor as guests…” Marcos White made up an excuse.
“Nonsense!” Bentley White shouted angrily and glared at Ricardo White and the others.
“Where are they?” Billy asked Marcos White coldly.
“I don’t know…” Marcos White shook his head. “I don’t know who took them or where they are now…”
“Do you think I’ll believe that?” Billy’s voice was icy. “Today, if you don’t hand them over, Whitecloud Manor will be destroyed!”
“Mr. Billy, let me apologize first!” Bentley White took a deep breath and continued. “I believe Marcos isn’t lying. Your people must have been taken by someone else…”
“I’ll say it again!” Billy’s tone was chilling. “Today, if you don’t hand them over, Whitecloud Manor will be destroyed!”
Bentley White exhaled heavily and turned to Sanaa.
“Miss Sanaa, can you give us a few days? By then, I’ll definitely hand over the people!”
“He didn’t capture my people, why ask me!” Sanaa dismissed him, clearly upset by his previous attitude.
Bentley White’s mouth twitched slightly before he continued. “Please, Miss Sanaa, for the sake of our ancestors…”
“Weren’t you very arrogant before?” Sanaa interrupted. “Why are you so meek now?”
“When you went to The Wilderness Entrance last time, I warned you!” Sanaa said to Marcos White.
“I told you not to covet the Nine Dragons Cauldron. Not only did you not listen, but you also did this. You’re truly a good descendant of Whitecloud Manor!”
“Do you realize that because of your actions, Whitecloud Manor might face utter destruction?”
Marcos White opened his mouth but couldn’t say a word.
Sanaa ignored him and turned to Billy.
“Seeing his condition, he probably isn’t lying. Even if you destroy Whitecloud Manor, they likely can’t hand over the people!”
“Instead of wasting time here, why not spend it searching for them?”
“Three days!” Billy said to Bentley White. “If we don’t see the people in three days, Whitecloud Peak will be razed to the ground!”
After speaking, he turned and left!
Sanaa was right; instead of staying here, it was better to search for them!
He could tell that Marcos White probably wasn’t lying!
“Good luck!” Sanaa said to Bentley White and the others before following Casey and Stout.
“Who could have taken Harleen and the others?” Stout muttered on the way. “Where do we even start looking?”
“I’ll take you to someone!” Sanaa said.
“Who?” Stout asked.
“Someone who understands astrology!” Sanaa replied.
“He can find out where Harleen and the others are?” Stout’s eyes lit up.
“It’s worth a try!” Sanaa nodded.
“Thank you for leading the way, Miss Sanaa!” Billy said.
“Alright!” Sanaa nodded and led them towards the northern part of Whitecloud City.
About twenty minutes later, they arrived outside a modest estate in the northern suburbs. The estate was nestled against a mountain and by a river, with beautiful scenery.
“Miss Sanaa, is the person you’re looking for inside?” Casey asked.
“Yes!” Sanaa nodded.
“What kind of person is he? Is he easy to talk to?” Stout asked.
“He’s quite easy to talk to!” Sanaa replied.
Before she finished speaking, a loud noise erupted, followed by three or four figures flying out of the estate.
They landed heavily in front of Billy and the others, each spitting blood before passing out one by one.
Miss Sanaa, are you sure the person inside is easy to talk to?
“Let’s go! I’ll take you inside!” Sanaa shrugged and walked towards the estate gate.
Soon, they arrived at the gate. Billy and the others saw that it was tightly closed with no guards in sight.
“Charity, come out and meet your guests!” Sanaa called loudly.
Casey and Stout exchanged glances and their mouths twitched slightly… “Not here, go back!” A woman’s voice interrupted from inside the estate.
Before she finished speaking, Sanaa waved her hand, turning the two red-painted doors into dust.
“Let’s go!” Sanaa said as she stepped into the estate.
Soon, they entered the estate.
“Who dares cause trouble here? Having a death wish?” An old woman’s voice rang out.
A shadow quickly flashed towards them at an incredible speed.
Billy could sense from her aura that she was at first-rank Returning Source Realm!
“Ali, stop! You’re no match for her!” The woman’s voice from earlier sounded again.
Hearing her voice, the old woman stopped a hundred meters away from Billy and the others.
Then, a woman gracefully walked out from one of the buildings.
She looked about thirty years old with a slender figure and delicate features.
Billy tried to probe her cultivation but found no trace of it.
“Couldn’t you just open the door?” The woman glared at Sanaa. “The door was just repaired recently!”
