Chapter 1871: The Army at the Gates
“Billy, did you succeed?”
At this moment, Harleen and Casey quickly approached.
“Yes,” Billy replied with a faint smile.
“Really? Boss, did you really break through to the Perceiving Dao Realm?” Judge and Soul Chaser shouted simultaneously.
Casey and Ivy’s faces lit up with joy.
Everyone knew what it meant for Billy to break through to the Perceiving Dao Realm.
A first-rank Perceiving Dao Realm could elevate to third-rank Perceiving Dao Realm by activating bloodline power. With just the ‘Heavenly Fury’ blade technique, he could contend with opponents at the Late Stage of Perceiving Dao Realm.
If he used ‘Cracked Sky,’ he could kill a third-rank Heaven Dao Realm expert. This made him the undisputed number one in the Akabuchi star domain.
“Don’t just stand there, go train. The Great Blue Star Domain’s people will probably attack in a few days,” Billy waved his hand at everyone.
“Got it!” Casey and the others responded in unison and headed towards the Gathering Spirit Array.
Billy stayed in the valley to consolidate his cultivation.
Time flew by, and five days passed in the blink of an eye.
That morning, Billy was chatting with Harleen and others in the front yard when his sound transmission stone activated.
He took out the sound transmission stone, covered it with spiritual power, and listened.
“Let’s go to Crimson Ink City!” Billy stood up after putting away the sound transmission stone.This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
“Boss, have the people from the Great Blue Star Domain arrived?” Casey asked.
“Yes,” Billy nodded.
“Boss, do you know who they are?” Azure Dragon asked.
“Not yet, let’s go take a look!” Billy responded.
The group flew towards Crimson Ink City, with White Feather naturally included.
After about half an hour, they landed at the mouth of the valley where they had been a few days ago.
Looking around, they saw four or five hundred people standing inside and outside the valley, most of them Crimson Abyss Blood Guards and Crimson Scourge Elite Guards.
In addition, Edward Quinn led a group of Star Palace members standing at the valley entrance, all with serious expressions.
Among these people, high-end combat power included Edward Quinn and another elder from Star Palace, both ninth-rank Perceiving Dao Realm.
There were also two eighth-rank Perceiving Dao Realm, two seventh-rank Perceiving Dao Realm, four sixth-rank Perceiving Dao Realm, and six fifth-rank Perceiving Dao Realm.
Besides these people, there were ten men and women at the Early Stage of Perceiving Dao Realm; the rest were at Entering Dao Realm or below.
Due to the incident with the Huff family a few days ago, including Alvin Huff and William Huff, ten Perceiving Dao Realm experts had been lost.
So, these people represented almost all of the Domain Lord’s Mansion’s high-end combat power!
“Mr. Billy, thank you for coming!” Edward Quinn quickly approached when he saw Billy, with Celine Quinn and Erica Cardenas close behind.
“No need for thanks, it’s my duty,” Billy responded before asking, “What’s the situation now?”
“Half an hour ago, there was an anomaly in the transmission channel. It should be their advance team scouting ahead,” Edward Quinn replied.
“If nothing unexpected happens, their main force will arrive soon!”
“Understood,” Billy nodded slightly before asking again, “Has the old palace master not come out of seclusion yet?”
“No,” Edward Quinn shook his head.
Just as he finished speaking, a powerful aura erupted from the transmission channel in mid-air. Waves of energy surged, and strong winds blew.
Immediately after, about a hundred figures emerged. Besides the five elders leading them, everyone else wore identical uniforms and skull masks, their expressions cold and their auras intense.
Among the five leaders, an elder with white hair and beard was a true Heaven Dao Realm expert, specifically second-rank Heaven Dao Realm.
The other four included one first-rank Heaven Dao Realm, one half-step Heaven Dao Realm, and two ninth-rank Perceiving Dao Realm.
Among the rest, the weakest were at the early stage of Entering Dao Realm, while the strongest included six eighth-rank Perceiving Dao Realm. There were about thirty people at Perceiving Dao Realm alone.
“Is that old man the west domain king of Great Blue Star Domain?” Azure Dragon asked Edward Quinn upon seeing them.
“No,” Edward Quinn’s face was very serious. After a brief pause, he said, “If I’m not mistaken, he should be the west domain demon!”
“West domain demon? What’s his background?” White Tiger asked.
“According to our information, the west domain demon is the top expert under Great Blue west domain king,” Edward Quinn continued.
“The hundred people behind him are his west domain Dark Guards, an elite force far superior to our Crimson Abyss Blood Guard!”
“Palace Master, can you tell what cultivation level that old guy is at?” White Tiger pressed on.
“Second-rank Heaven Dao Realm!” Edward Quinn took a deep breath. “It seems we underestimated the strength of the west domain king!”
“Previously, our information indicated that the west domain demon was only first-rank Perceiving Dao Realm. We didn’t expect him to have broken through to second-rank!”
“And his deputy has also broken through to Heaven Dao Realm. This suggests that the west domain king himself might have reached third-rank Heaven Dao Realm!”
After speaking, he felt a pang of anxiety.
Originally, when he learned a few days ago that Kymani Vasquez had broken through to Heaven Dao Realm, he felt somewhat reassured.
After all, having a Heaven Dao Realm expert in Akabuchi City meant they had a fighting chance against their opponents.
But now, with even just the west domain demon being second-rank Heaven Dao Realm, how could they win this battle?
“A second-rank Heaven Dao Realm and a first-rank Heaven Dao Realm think they can attack Akabuchi City? That west domain king is too full of himself!” White Tiger clicked his tongue and looked at Billy.
“Boss, should we just take them out?”
Edward Quinn and his group choked simultaneously.
In their view, while Billy was strong, he could at most contend with half-step Heaven Dao Realm opponents!
Their opponents now had two Heaven Dao Realm experts, one of whom was second-rank Heaven Dao Realm!
Could they really just take them out?
“Who is the palace master of Akabuchi Star Palace?” At this moment, the west domain demon landed not far from them.
“What do you want?” Edward Quinn took a deep breath and responded.
“You have two choices!” The west domain demon said arrogantly.
“First, extinction!”
“Second, agree to my conditions and I’ll spare your lives!”
“What are your conditions? Let’s hear them,” Edward Quinn replied.
“First, submit to my Great Blue West Domain and become our subordinate star domain!” The west domain demon said coldly.
“Second, let your daughter come back with me to Great Blue West Domain and marry our prince!”
“Third, cripple Sky City’s Billy’s cultivation and hand him over to me!”
“The people from Great Blue Star Domain are all idiots!” Judge couldn’t help but retort.
“Courting death!” A ninth-rank Perceiving Dao Realm elder from the other side shouted angrily and sent a gust of wind towards Judge with a wave of his hand.
“Watch out!” Sawyer Quinn from Star Palace also sent out an imprint to counter it.
The two forces clashed and each retreated several dozen meters. Nearby stones turned to powder.
“You like meddling in others’ business?” The elder from the other side looked at Sawyer Quinn and said coldly.
“If you make another move, you’ll die!” Before Sawyer Quinn could respond, Billy glanced at him.
“Who are you? Do you think you can speak here…” A first-rank Perceiving Dao Realm man pointed at Billy but didn’t finish his sentence as a sword light flashed past his shoulder.
An arm flew into the air as blood spurted out.
