Lord Came Back From The Battlefield

“Boss, we don’t know where this teleportation tunnel leads. Is it risky to just go in like this?” White Tiger asked Billy.

“Although there’s a risk, we don’t seem to have a better way to get to the Great Blue West Domain. Taking a starship might be too uncertain,” Azure Dragon responded.

“We’re unfamiliar with star domains outside of the Akabuchi star domain. There are too many unknowns with a starship!” Casey added.

“This teleportation tunnel must lead somewhere in the Great Blue West Domain. Let’s take it one step at a time.”

“Understood!” Everyone nodded.

“Let’s go! Be careful!” Billy led the group into the teleportation tunnel.

Whether it was due to their improved cultivation or the high level of the tunnel itself, they didn’t feel dizzy this time.

To their surprise, this tunnel was different from any they had passed through before. Previous tunnels were endless dark spaces, silent and lifeless. But in this tunnel, they could see the sun, moon, and stars, as if they were flying through the vast starry sky.

The only difference was that their flying speed inside the tunnel was much faster than outside, like moving in a vacuum without any resistance. No matter how fast they went, they felt no discomfort.

It was truly amazing and awe-inspiring!

After about an hour, White Feather called out to everyone.

“White Feather, what’s wrong?” Casey asked.

White Feather called out twice more and gestured ahead.

“Stop for now!” Billy said after probing with his spiritual power.

“Billy Boy, what’s going on?” Amber asked.

“Someone’s coming!” Billy responded.

“Someone?” Everyone was taken aback.

“The Great Blue Star Domain wouldn’t send another large force so soon, would they?” White Tiger frowned and looked at Billy. “Boss, can you sense how many people there are? How strong are they?”

“There are only three people,” Billy replied. “The strongest is a ninth-rank Perceiving Dao Realm, another is a sixth-rank Perceiving Dao Realm, and the last one is a ninth-rank Entering Dao Realm.”

“Could they be scouts from the Great Blue West Domain?” Azure Dragon speculated.

“Follow me and stay alert,” Billy instructed.

A few minutes later, three figures appeared within their sight. Leading them was a gray-robed elderly man of ninth-rank Perceiving Dao Realm. Behind him were a middle-aged man of sixth-rank Perceiving Dao Realm and a young woman under thirty with delicate features and dressed in green.

All three had some injuries and looked slightly pale but still seemed capable of fighting.

“Hmm?” The three newcomers were startled upon seeing Billy’s group and steadied themselves.

“Who are you?” the gray-robed elderly man asked Billy, his expression tense.

“Are you from the Great Blue West Domain?” Casey countered.

“How dare you! Didn’t you hear Elder Hu asking you a question?” the middle-aged man pointed at Casey sternly.

“You’d better put your hand down, or you won’t need it anymore,” Casey warned with narrowed eyes.

“Reckless fool! Move aside!” The middle-aged man formed a seal with his hand and attacked.

“Scram!” Billy’s eyes narrowed as he pointed a finger.

The energy wave from Celestial Black Finger collided with the man’s attack, sending him flying hundreds of meters away with blood trickling from his mouth.

Billy was now a second-rank Perceiving Dao Realm. Even without using his bloodline power, his Celestial Black Finger could rival a fifth-rank Perceiving Dao Realm. The opponent had underestimated them and used only seventy to eighty percent of his strength, so he couldn’t withstand the attack.

“Hmm?”

Seeing Billy easily repel the middle-aged man, the gray-robed elderly man’s pupils contracted slightly. He had already assessed Billy’s group’s martial cultivation. Apart from White Feather, whose level he couldn’t sense, Billy had the highest cultivation at second-rank Perceiving Dao Realm. But he hadn’t expected Billy to be so powerful.

“You dare hurt me? I’ll cripple you!” The middle-aged man roared and charged again.

“If you attack again, you’ll die!” Billy warned sternly.

“Arrogant brat! I’ll show you what true power is!” The middle-aged man raised his hand to strike Billy again.

“Stop!” the gray-robed elderly man commanded.

“Elder Reece, this brat needs to be taught a lesson…” the middle-aged man protested.

“I said stop! Didn’t you hear me?” Elder Reece frowned.

“Fine!” The middle-aged man reluctantly stepped back.

“You there, are you heading to the Great Blue Star Domain?” Elder Reece asked Billy, his tone more relaxed than before. In martial arts, strength commands respect. From Billy’s earlier move, he could tell that Billy hadn’t used his full power; otherwise, his companion would be dead.

“If there’s nothing else, let’s go our separate ways,” Billy replied curtly.

“Please don’t misunderstand; we mean no harm,” Elder Reece said, bowing slightly to Billy. “Allow me to introduce myself. I am Reece Knapp, steward of the Knapp family from Chaos City. This is our young lady.”

“Greetings,” said Amy Knapp, bowing slightly to Billy.

“Chaos City?” Stout was puzzled. “What kind of place is that?”

“As the name suggests, Chaos City is the most chaotic city in the Great Blue West Domain. It’s filled with all sorts of people,” Reece Knapp explained. “It’s also the second-largest city in the west domain after Radiant Sky City.”

“Radiant Sky City?” Azure Dragon asked. “Is that also in the Great Blue West Domain?”

“Yes,” Reece Knapp nodded. “Radiant Sky City is one of the five major cities in the Great Blue Star Domain and serves as the central city and residence of the west domain king.”

“Is this teleportation tunnel’s endpoint in Radiant Sky City?” Casey asked.

“No,” Reece Knapp shook his head. “The tunnel ends in Chaos City.”

“Why did your west domain king build the teleportation tunnel in such a place?” Stout asked.Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

“It’s simple. Chaos City is not far from Radiant Sky City. The west domain king uses Chaos City as a buffer zone,” Reece Knapp explained. “This way, even if strong individuals from Akabuchi star domain come through the tunnel to the Great Blue West Domain, Radiant Sky City remains far from the main battlefield.”

“Smart move,” Azure Dragon commented.

“What’s the current situation in the Great Blue West Domain?” Billy asked.

“A complete mess!” Reece Knapp sighed deeply before continuing. “Since news of the west domain king and his strongmen dying in Akabuchi City reached us, the entire west domain has fallen into chaos.”

“The forces previously suppressed by the west domain king are all vying to become the next king, leading to constant battles.”

“And your Domain Lord’s Mansion isn’t intervening?” Azure Dragon asked.
