“Who dares to kill a member of the Emperor Clan? How audacious!” Dayton Krueger furrowed his brows and angrily shouted.
His shock was no less than Kaitlyn Houston’s!
Even though he himself was a rare genius of the Emperor Clan, already at the eighth-rank Heavenly Empyrean Realm at a young age, he felt that Billy was even more extraordinary than him.
After his words fell, he looked at the other three and solemnly instructed, “The three of you attack together and kill that fatty!”
“Alright!” The three responded in unison and charged towards Stout.
“I’ve long told you to attack together, don’t pretend to be noble and righteous. Now you won’t pretend anymore?” Stout replied and swiftly dashed to the side.
“Stop him!” one of the men, a fifth-rank Heavenly Empyrean Realm cultivator, shouted and followed closely behind, with the other two right behind him.
Meanwhile, Dayton Krueger flew over to Billy and said, “Make your move, let me see what tricks you still have up your sleeve!”
“Don’t worry about me, just go!” Kaitlyn Houston looked at Billy and said, “He is at the eighth-rank Heavenly Empyrean Realm, you are no match for him!”
“Eighth-rank Heavenly Empyrean Realm?” Billy raised an eyebrow. “Then it’s a perfect opportunity to test my swordsmanship!”
Kaitlyn Houston thought to herself: Can’t you understand what I’m saying?
“Come on, let me see what swordsmanship you have!” Dayton Krueger glanced at Billy.
“Don’t accuse me of bullying you with my lower cultivation level. I’ll let you make the first move with three strikes, and then I’ll make my move. Is that fair enough?”
“Isn’t that a bit embarrassing?” Billy replied.
“I’m the one who suggested it, so there’s nothing to be embarrassed about! Come on, don’t waste any more time!” Dayton Krueger responded.
“So, you really want me to make the first move?” Billy continued, “Are you trying to deceive me, catch me off guard, and launch a surprise attack?”
“Ridiculous! Do you think I, Dayton Krueger, need to launch a surprise attack on you?” Dayton Krueger sneered.
“In that case…” Billy replied.
“No more nonsense, if you’re going to make a move, do it quickly!” Dayton Krueger interrupted him.
“Alright!” Billy shrugged and looked at Kaitlyn Houston. “Lady Kaitlyn, how about you take a step back?”
Kaitlyn Houston’s mouth twitched slightly. “Just be careful. Don’t force yourself if you can’t handle it…”
Before she could finish her sentence, Billy had made his move!
Punish Heaven!
In the next moment, the blade’s radiance turned the empty space blood-red. Wherever it passed, the void disintegrated, destroying everything in its path.
“Hmm?!” Sensing the power of this strike, Dayton Krueger’s pupils contracted in an instant. A strong aura enveloped him.
Kaitlyn Houston, standing by his side, wore an equally shocked expression on her face and couldn’t help but shiver.
She knew that even at her peak state, she wouldn’t be able to withstand this strike!
She realized once again that she had underestimated Billy!
Without any hesitation, Dayton Krueger quickly raised his hand to form a seal as a defensive measure and swiftly retreated to the side.
But it was clear that it was futile!
Billy’s current cultivation was at the half-step Comprehending Empyrean Realm. With the support of his bloodline power and the Heart Method from the Heaven Book, he could temporarily reach the fifth-rank Comprehending Empyrean Realm.
With one strike of Punish Heaven, even if Dayton Krueger went all out, he wouldn’t be able to withstand it, let alone in such a hasty battle!
As expected, there were no surprises. After the blade’s radiance passed, Dayton Krueger’s physical body disintegrated into nothingness like the surrounding void, leaving only his soul soaring into the air.
Seeing this scene before her eyes, Kaitlyn Houston wore an expression of extreme astonishment. Her face was filled with disbelief, and she even subconsciously rubbed her eyes to confirm that she wasn’t seeing things.
Dayton Krueger, an eighth-rank Heavenly Empyrean Realm cultivator, had been beheaded by Billy with a single strike?
If she hadn’t witnessed it with her own eyes, she would never have believed it!
This was too incredible!
“You’ve destroyed my physical body! You deserve to die!” At the same time, Dayton Krueger’s soul howled in anguish.
His shock was no less than Kaitlyn Houston’s!
Billy’s previous strike not only destroyed his physical body but also inflicted heavy damage on his soul.
“What kind of swordsmanship is that?” Dayton Krueger’s soul shouted again.
He had a feeling that even if he hadn’t been caught off guard in this hasty battle, it would have been difficult for him to withstand that strike.
He couldn’t understand why Billy could unleash such a level of swordsmanship!
“Punish Heaven!” Billy continued speaking. “There are two more strikes. Are you ready?”
Without further ado, Dayton Krueger’s soul immediately retreated to the rear.
“Running away?” Billy shrugged. “I can’t stand people who don’t keep their word!”
As he finished speaking, Dark Puppet caught up with Dayton Krueger.
An eighth-rank Heavenly Empyrean Realm cultivator was a great tonic. How could they let him escape?
“I refuse to accept this!” Within a few breaths, a roar came from not far away before returning to silence.
The pitiful heir of the Emperor Clan had met his end just like that!
“Boss, what about that so-called heir? Is he dead?” Stout flew over and asked. His three opponents had met the same fate as Dayton Krueger.
“Yes!” Billy replied with a faint smile.
“Who are you two anyway?” Kaitlyn Houston stabilized her emotions and looked at them with caution.
At this moment, she regarded Billy and Stout with increased wariness.
As Allyson Houston’s closest companion and core responsibility being to help the Imperial Clan find geniuses, she had encountered countless so-called talents over the years.
She was confident that within the area governed by the Imperial Clan in this world, she was quite familiar. If there were truly extraordinary individuals like Billy here, she should have heard of them long ago.
In other words, Billy and Stout were likely not from the region governed by the Imperial Clan.
And if they weren’t from the Imperial Clan, then they must be from one of the other three major powers. So why did Billy and Stout join the Imperial Guard of the Imperial Clan? What was their purpose?
“Don’t worry, I mean no harm to you.” Billy naturally guessed what she was thinking.
After a brief pause, he continued asking, “What about your princess? Is she alright?”
“Princess?” Upon hearing Billy’s words, Kaitlyn Houston snapped back to reality. “The princess was captured by Demonic Beasts. We need to save her!”
“Captured by Demonic Beasts?” Billy paused for a moment. “What happened?”
“Shall we talk while we walk?” Kaitlyn Houston suggested.
“Lead the way!” Billy nodded.
Although he had only met Allyson Houston twice before, he could tell from her demeanor that she should be relatively decent in character. At least she wasn’t a cunning and treacherous person.
Therefore, within his capabilities, he didn’t mind helping her out.
Besides, he planned to ask Allyson Houston about the formation on top of that tower!
