Lord Came Back From The Battlefield

Originally, if Kyle Hawkins had not been so arrogant and had fought with all his might head-on, Billy would have found it difficult to severely injure him, even with Cracked Sky. It would have taken at least two consecutive strikes to have a slim chance.

As the saying goes, it’s better to be humble!

After severing one of Kyle Hawkins’ arms with a single slash, Billy didn’t pause and charged forward again. Since the opponent came with the intent to kill him, he naturally wouldn’t show any mercy, regardless of the forces backing him. He would kill first and deal with the consequences later.

As he dashed forward, his blade unleashed a Heavenly Fury Slash, tearing through the void once more. Kyle Hawkins hadn’t yet regained his balance when the blade light rapidly expanded in his pupils.

“Kid, if you dare kill me, Yheng Institute will never let you…” Kyle Hawkins shouted in desperation.

Before he could finish his sentence, his head flew into the sky, his face frozen in an expression of unwillingness. He never dreamed that after overcoming countless hardships to reach this star domain, he would meet his end before he could enjoy it.

In his last moments, he truly regretted it. If he had known that the people of the lower star domain were so cunning, he wouldn’t have been so arrogant.

“Showing off comes with a price!” Judge shrugged as he looked ahead.

Seeing Billy take down the opponent in just two moves, the people of Mysterious Hall Sect were almost dumbfounded. That was an eighth-rank Entering Emptiness Realm expert! In the entire third-tier star domain, such a person was unrivaled!

But in just the blink of an eye, he was dead!

Billy’s fighting ability was turly astonishing!

“Mr. Billy is indeed a once-in-a-millennium genius; truly admirable!” Mysterious Hall Sect’s leader Archie Allison, accompanied by Lacey Allison, approached Billy. After a brief period of adjustment, his injuries had somewhat improved.

As he spoke, he was filled with emotion. The first time he heard Billy’s name, Billy was just a nobody who couldn’t catch his eye. But in just about a year, Billy had grown to a level that even Archie had to admire!

He was also grateful that he had listened to his daughter’s advice and hadn’t clashed directly with Billy. Otherwise, Mysterious Hall Sect would have vanished long ago.

Not only Archie felt this way; everyone in Mysterious Hall Sect, including Lacey Allison, shared the sentiment. Especially Bowen and Aiden Rees; to them, Billy’s growth speed was like riding a rocket.

It was simply too extraordinary!

“Lord Archie, you flatter me!” Billy smiled faintly and asked, “Is the matter with Princeton Lopez resolved?”

“Thank you for your concern, Mr. Billy. It’s been taken care of,” Archie Allison nodded.

“What exactly is going on here? How many people from the mid-tier star domain have come?” Billy asked.

“Mr. Billy, let me explain,” Lacey Allison said and began to introduce the situation to Billy and the others. It took about ten minutes to give a brief overview.

A month ago, after parting ways with Billy, she had rushed back to Mysterious Hall Sect with Bowen and the others. Just as Billy had guessed at the time, Princeton Lopez had returned directly to Mysterious Hall Sect after leaving City of the Dead, intending to purge the sect while Archie Allison was still in seclusion.

However, before he could start his plan, Archie Allison had already come out of seclusion. The subsequent events were no surprise. Princeton Lopez and his followers were all killed, and the internal strife within Mysterious Hall Sect was quelled smoothly.

Three days ago, after reorganizing the sect, Archie Allison led Mysterious Hall Sect’s elite forces to City of the Dead. For him, going to the mid-tier star domain was a lifelong dream that he wouldn’t easily give up. He knew that Billy would definitely go to the mid-tier star domain, so he planned to discuss with Billy about taking Mysterious Hall Sect’s people along.

However, two days ago, an abnormal phenomenon occurred at Chasm’s entrance. Lacey Allison immediately sent a message to Billy. Yesterday evening, twenty people from Yheng Institute crossed the barrier and officially arrived at City of the Dead.

At that time, tens of thousands of people were around the canyon. The Yheng Institute members demanded everyone hand over their storage rings and submit to them. Naturally, people resisted, leading to conflict.

From the start of the battle, it was clear how vast the gap between both sides was. The twenty people from Yheng Institute were all Entering Emptiness Realm experts except for their leader whose cultivation level was unknown.

The previously mentioned Kyle Hawkins seemed to be their second-in-command. Besides him, there were two seventh-rank Entering Emptiness Realm experts and six mid-rank Entering Emptiness Realm men and women. The remaining ten were early-stage Entering Emptiness Realm experts.

The result of the battle was what Billy and the others had witnessed earlier. Even though their leader hadn’t made a move from start to finish, City of the Dead’s people stood no chance. Nearly ten thousand were killed.

Mysterious Hall Sect wasn’t spared either. Of the hundred people who came with Archie Allison to City of the Dead, only about twenty remained; the rest were all killed. Subsequently, most people in City of the Dead fled back to their bases while some chose to submit.

“Young Lady, where are those Yheng Institute people now?” Harleen asked after Lacey Allison finished her explanation.

“Yheng Institute came to City of the Dead for two reasons: to reclaim our third-tier star domain and most importantly, for the Sacred Object that Mr. Billy possesses,” Lacey Allison continued.Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.

“After realizing that Mr. Billy wasn’t present after the battle at Chasm’s entrance, they split into two groups.”

“One group led by Kyle Hawkins focused on City of the Dead. Since last night until now, he led about ten people searching for Mr. Billy inside and outside City of the Dead.”

“The other group led by their leader went somewhere else; we don’t know where…”

At that moment, several powerful auras swept towards them.

Soon after, about ten figures appeared within their sight range-all Entering Emptiness Realm experts.

“Mr. Billy, they’re here!” Lacey Allison’s face showed a hint of seriousness.

“Alright,” Billy nodded. “You all stay here; I’ll go meet them!”

“Mr. Billy, let me assist you!” Archie Allison offered.

“Lord Archie, you shouldn’t go; your injuries haven’t healed…” Billy responded.

He had already assessed Archie’s martial aura earlier and could roughly guess his cultivation level-likely late-stage sixth-rank Entering Emptiness Realm strength. But with his current injuries, Archie could at best exert early-stage Entering Emptiness Realm combat power.

“No worries; I can handle a few early-stage opponents,” Archie interrupted him.

“Alright,” Billy didn’t insist further and then turned to White Feather. “White Feather, ready for some action?”

White Feather chirped and flapped its wings into the air.

Billy and Archie Allison both ascended into the sky simultaneously.

Soon enough, the opposing group arrived within close range.

Leading them was an elderly woman at seventh-rank Entering Emptiness Realm holding a long whip made of unknown material.

“Kyle!” The old woman cried out in anguish upon seeing Kyle Hawkins’ headless corpse on the ground.

The others also showed expressions of sorrow.

“Who did this?!”

The old woman glared at Billy and Archie Allison with eyes like daggers, enunciating each word with venomous intent. Her expression twisted as she radiated intense killing intent.
