Lord Came Back From The Battlefield

Billy and his group first stopped at Sky City to meet Aubree. On their last trip back, Aubree had mentioned that she might stay longer this time, and Billy respected her choice. Billy briefly discussed establishing the Institute in the Forbidden Ruins Space with Aubree, and she gladly accepted. After bidding farewell to Aubree, the group headed towards the City of the Dead.

During the journey, there was little communication as everyone was fully immersed in their meditation and cultivation. Over the past two to three months, aside from spending time with their families, they had not neglected their training. Although they couldn’t break through their levels, with the help of abundant high-level cultivation resources, they had reached a critical point.

Upon leaving the Akabuchi star domain and arriving at the Great Blue Star Domain, everyone broke through without any suspense, advancing two levels each. Harleen reached the ninth-rank Heaven Dao Realm, while Ivy and Opal stepped into the eighth-rank Heaven Dao Realm. Casey, Stout, and Amber also advanced two levels to the seventh-rank Heaven Dao Realm. Azure Dragon, Azure Fang, Ian Blade, and Bob broke through to the sixth-rank realm. Felicia, Vermilion Bird, and White Tiger advanced to the fifth-rank, while Night Orchid, Frostblade, and others stepped into the fourth-rank Holy Realm.

As for Billy himself, with the help of his bloodline power, he also advanced two levels, reaching half step into Entering Emptiness Realm. Over the past few months, Billy had tried multiple times to contact Purple Spirit and White Feather but received no response. He had no idea how they were faring inside the Nine Dragons Cauldron.

Five and a half months after their last departure from the City of the Dead, Billy and his group reappeared in the city. As soon as they landed in a flat area of a canyon, four men quickly approached them.

“Are you from the Mysterious Hall Sect?” Billy asked.

“Yes, Mr. Billy,” the leading man nodded.

“Have there been any unusual occurrences here in recent months?” Billy continued.

“Nothing significant,” the leading man shook his head. “Mr. Billy, are you planning to go to the mid-tier star domain?”

“Yes,” Billy nodded.

“Please inform Lord Archie that we will scout ahead and notify them if everything goes smoothly.”

“Thank you, Mr. Billy,” the leading man bowed.

Billy then led Harleen and the others to the entrance. Following their previous method, they broke through the array and entered the Chasm passage, with Harleen and the others close behind. Once they disappeared, the entrance restored itself.

“Boss, is this the small world you mentioned?” White Tiger asked as they arrived in a new space.

“Yes,” Billy nodded.

“Boss, there seems to be no human presence here,” Azure Dragon said after scanning the area with his spiritual power.

“Let’s move forward,” Billy responded and flew ahead with the group following closely.

After about half an hour, they landed in front of a forest where they sensed some strong energy fluctuations. Just as they touched down, a loud noise echoed as a figure was thrown out of the forest. It was Joe White, who had lost an arm in their previous encounter.

“Young master, you’re here?” Joe White’s eyes lit up upon seeing Billy. He scrambled up from the ground and ran towards Billy. “Young master, save me!”

“Who is trying to kill you?” Billy asked as Joe White approached.

“The Moore family,” Joe White replied.

As he spoke, a group of about twenty people emerged from the forest. Leading them was a middle-aged man in a white robe. Billy couldn’t sense his aura, indicating he was at least in the late stage of Entering Emptiness Realm. Among the group were seven or eight individuals with Entering Emptiness Realm abilities.

“Hmm?” The middle-aged man named Leo Moore frowned slightly upon seeing Billy’s group. “Who are you?”

“Why are they trying to kill you?” Billy ignored Leo and continued questioning Joe White.

“They…” Joe White began.

“Shut up! The second master is speaking to you!” A third-rank Entering Emptiness Realm man shouted at Joe White while pointing at Billy.

Before he could finish his sentence, Casey flicked his wrist and sent a blade light slashing out. “You court death!” The man frowned and swung his large blade to meet Casey’s attack. Their strikes collided, sending both retreating three to four hundred meters evenly matched.

“I underestimated you!” The man said before charging again with his aura surging to its peak. Casey showed no intention of retreating and wielded his Demon Blade to unleash Heavenly Fury Slash.

With a loud explosion, both were once again thrown several hundred meters apart, still evenly matched. Seeing this, Leo Moore’s pupils contracted slightly. He had already assessed Billy’s group’s cultivation levels and found that the highest was only at half step into Entering Emptiness Realm. He hadn’t taken them seriously until now when a seventh-rank Heaven Dao Realm warrior matched a third-rank Entering Emptiness Realm fighter.

“Are you from a lower-tier star domain?” Leo Moore asked Billy.NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.

“Do you want to go to a lower-tier star domain?” Billy countered.

“Young master, they do want to go to a lower-tier star domain,” Joe White said. “They are chasing me because they want me to break that thunder array for them.”

“My patience is limited. You better not…” Leo Moore glanced at Joe White before looking back at Billy.

“Leave!” Billy interrupted him sternly. “Before I lose my temper, go back where you came from!”

“You brat! Do you want to die?” Another fourth-rank Entering Emptiness Realm man pointed at Billy angrily.

“If you don’t want to leave, then don’t!” Billy’s tone turned cold as he swept out a gust of wind with his hand. The man didn’t take a half step into Entering Emptiness Realm opponent seriously and stepped forward with an imprint ready to meet Billy’s attack. However, he soon realized his mistake as he was blown away like a leaf and landed heavily five or six hundred meters away, twitching a few times before going still.

To Billy, anyone attempting to plunder in lower-tier star domains deserved death!

“Bastard!” Leo Moore roared as he saw his subordinate fall. He raised his hand, forming an axe-shaped weapon and slashed towards Billy with his aura surging to ninth-rank Entering Emptiness Realm.

“Attack! Kill them!” Billy commanded sternly.

“Got it!” Harleen and Casey quickly charged forward with their group.
