“Miss Sanaa, do you know the high-end combat power of The Hallowed Court?” Harleen asked, looking at Sanaa.
“I don’t have exact information yet,” Sanaa shook her head. “But it is certain that they are not inferior to the Heaven Alliance.”
“Moreover, it is said that the Hall Lord of The Hallowed Court has been in seclusion for the past month and came out three days ago. If nothing unexpected happens, he should have broken through.”
“Condensed Kun Realm?” Casey asked.
“Yes,” Sanaa nodded. “Additionally, there should be one more person in The Hallowed Court who has reached that level.”
“So strong?” White Tiger and a few others frowned.
“Even stronger,” Sanaa added.
“Alright,” everyone shrugged.
“If you decide to go, prepare yourselves. We will set off in an hour; time is tight,” Sanaa said, looking at Billy.
“Okay,” Billy nodded.
“Miss Sanaa, is Elder Jennifer still at the Universe Palace?” Harleen asked again.
“No,” Sanaa shook her head. “She and a few others from the Universe Palace left for Decadent City three days ago.”
Harleen nodded.
An hour later, Sanaa and Harleen’s group all entered the Nine Dragons Cauldron, and White Feather carried Billy swiftly towards Fallingstar City.
To return to Decadent City from the Universe Palace, they had to transfer through Fallingstar City.
On the afternoon of the fourth day, Billy and his group appeared outside the main gate of Decadent City.
Upon entering the city, they could clearly feel an increase in martial artists on the streets, including some with Source Realm cultivation.
There were also several conflicts on the streets, but none were large-scale, just minor skirmishes.
Half an hour later, they returned to the small inn they had stayed at before.
Sanaa then sent a message to Jennifer, asking her to come to the inn.
About half an hour later, Jennifer, Jamal Clarke, and five or six elders from the Universe Palace arrived one after another.
Billy greeted them with his group.
“How is the situation in the city now?” Sanaa asked.
“So far, about ninety percent of the first-class and super-first-class forces from the Upper Realm have sent people to Decadent City, around twenty teams,” Jennifer responded.
“Except for three or four sect leaders who are in seclusion and couldn’t come, all others have led their teams personally.”
“So many first-class and super-first-class forces?” Judge and Soul Chaser exclaimed.
Back in the Lower Realm, there were only three or four first-class forces. They didn’t expect such an exaggeration in the Upper Realm.
“Ma’ma, do you know the current situation of Heaven’s Tea House?” Bill y asked Jennifer.
To confront The Hallowed Court, he needed allies. Heaven’s Tea House was the best choice.
He had refined many high-grade Mixing Essence Pills for Heaven’s Tea House last time. By now, their high-end combat power must have greatly improved.
“The specific situation is unclear,” Jennifer shook her head.
“It is known that since The Hallowed Court issued invitations some time ago, Heaven’s Tea House has not shown up much.”
“All their shops are closed, and their headquarters is empty. No one knows where they went.”
“What do you mean?” Stout White Tiger was stunned. “Did they run away?”
“They probably don’t want to get involved with The Hallowed Court’s affairs, so they are hiding temporarily,” Jennifer continued.
“They are likely still in Decadent City. Heaven’s Tea House is an intelligence agency; it’s unlikely they’d stay away from such major events.”
“Boss, should we contact Cheyanne?” Casey asked Billy, knowing his thoughts.
“I’ll try,” Billy nodded and took out a sound transmission stone to send a message to Cheyanne Stark.
However, there was no response for a while after sending the message.
“Did they really run away?” Stout said again.
“Shut up!” Ivy glared at him and looked at Billy. “Billy, should we go to Heaven’s Tea House…”
Before she finished speaking, footsteps were heard, and a man in plain clothes walked in quickly.
As he walked, he looked at Billy and said, “Mr. Billy, hello!”
“And you are?” Billy was slightly taken aback.
“I am from Heaven’s Tea House. Cheyanne guessed you might come to Decadent City, so she asked me to wait here for you,” the man responded.
“Cheyanne and her team are still in Decadent City?” Billy continued to ask.
“We at Heaven’s Tea House do not want to get involved with The Hallowed Court’s affairs, so we retreated to a place ten thousand miles away from Decadent City,” the man said.
“Cheyanne said that if Mr. Billy wanted to find her, I should take you there.”
“Ten thousand miles away isn’t too far. Why didn’t she respond when I sent her a message?” Judge asked.
“It’s a separate space where ordinary sound transmission stones cannot penetrate,” the man explained.
“Please lead the way,” Billy said and then looked at Sanaa. “Miss Sanaa, I’ll go check it out. You stay here with everyone.”
“Boss, The Hallowed Court people might already be watching them. It’s risky for you to go alone; let’s go together!” Azure Dragon said before Sanaa could speak.
“No need,” Billy shook his head. “You stay in the city and keep an eye on what’s going on.”
“But…” Azure Dragon started again.
“If I face real danger, you will only be a burden if you follow,” Sanaa interrupted him. “Let Jennifer go with you.”
“No need,” Billy shook his head again.
“I suspect The Hallowed Court already knows we are in Decadent City. Having Jennifer stay here provides extra security.”
“Alright,” Sanaa did not insist further.
Billy then greeted everyone before flying away with the man from Heaven’s Tea House.
About forty-five minutes later, they arrived above an open space thousands of miles outside Decadent City.
“What did The Hallowed Court offer you?” Billy stopped mid-air and asked the man.
“What… what do you mean?” The man’s eyes showed a trace of panic.
“No need to pretend; your eyes have betrayed you,” Billy said calmly. “I knew from the beginning that you were trying to lure me out of the city.”
“Moreover, if Cheyanne really wanted me to find her, she would have sent me a message before entering that space where ordinary sound transmission stones cannot penetrate.”
“The fact that she didn’t send me a message means two things!”
“First, she might be restricted and unable to send messages!”
“Second, she might not want to involve me and thus doesn’t want me to find her!”
“Hehe, I’ve heard that Mr. Billy is exceptionally wise; it seems true!” As soon as Billy finished speaking, an old man’s voice reached his ears.
Then seven or eight people appeared out of nowhere.
The leader was the old man who spoke; his cultivation was not weak-half-step Condensed Kun Realm!
The seven men and women behind him were also extraordinary; the weakest was mid-stage Supreme Source Realm, and the strongest was ninth-rank Supreme Source Realm.
“Finally show yourselves?” Billy asked calmly as he looked at the leading old man.
