Lord Came Back From The Battlefield

Once bitten, twice shy!

For Billy, the last time he was too merciful and spared Perry Norton, causing his companions and him to fall into a desperate situation.

This time, he would not make the same mistake!

“Boss, I’ll go with you!” Casey said.

“I’ll go too!” Azure Dragon and Black Tortoise members said simultaneously.

“Casey will come with me, the rest of you continue to heal!” Billy replied.

The reason for taking Casey was obvious; his injuries had healed the fastest and he was almost fully recovered.

“Boss…” Azure Dragon continued.

“It’s decided!” Billy interrupted him. “Casey, let’s go!”

“Alright!” Casey responded.

Then, the two of them flew towards the city.

“Boss, Mr. Kimmons, make sure to check out the Norton family warehouse!” Stout shouted after them.

Everyone else: “…”

Half an hour later, the two landed in the Norton family courtyard.

“Who are you?” a man’s voice rang out.

In an instant, nearly a hundred people emerged from various corners of the courtyard. Their cultivation levels were not high, with the strongest being only at the fourth-rank Perfection Emptiness Realm.

“Norton family members, listen up!” Casey shouted.

“Perry Norton has been killed by us. If you want to live, abolish your cultivation yourselves. Otherwise, you’ll join Perry Norton in death!”

A commotion erupted, with varied expressions on everyone’s faces.

“Bastard, how dare you curse our master! Die!” an elder at the third-rank Perfection Emptiness Realm roared and charged at them.

He had already assessed Billy and Casey’s cultivation levels-one at second-rank Perfection Emptiness Realm and one at eighth-rank Entering Emptiness Realm-so he didn’t believe Casey’s words.

“They dare to act recklessly in the Norton family courtyard. Kill them!” The fourth-rank Perfection Emptiness Realm cultivator also charged.

Seeing the two attacking, others followed suit.

“Then join your master in death!” Billy said.

As his words fell, his blade sent out seven or eight slashes of light.

The blade light was unstoppable; the Norton family members had no chance to resist. After the blade light passed, including the fourth-rank and third-rank Perfection Emptiness Realm cultivators, about fifty people fell from mid-air, all dead.

Those behind stopped in their tracks, faces filled with horror.

“Run!” a man shouted and fled to the left.

The others didn’t hesitate and scattered like birds and beasts.

“Kill!” Billy ordered.

“Got it!” Casey responded and quickly pursued them.

The remaining Norton family members were at most late-stage Entering Emptiness Realm, making it impossible for them to escape. Within minutes, they were all killed.

Casey then extracted the location of the warehouse from a Norton family member.

About half an hour later, they flew away, leaving the courtyard buildings in ruins after a few slashes from Billy.

The Norton family officially became history in Azure Abyss City!Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

In the following days, everyone stayed in the inn to recover from their injuries. After three to five days, they were fully healed.

One morning, while everyone was meditating in the inn’s courtyard, a terrifying aura enveloped the entire inn. From this aura alone, it was clear that the newcomer was at least mid-stage Breaking Emptiness Realm!

“Frost Palace people are finally here!” Casey frowned slightly.

“Let’s go check it out!” Billy said and led everyone into the air.

In mid-air, they saw a group flying towards them from a distance. Leading them was a bald man with a broad back and a bear-like waist. He appeared to be in his fifties or sixties, with an unfriendly face and eyebrows long enough to cover his eyes. His cultivation was impressive-fifth-rank Breaking Emptiness Realm!

Behind him were ten men and women, all at Perfection Emptiness Realm. Among them were two late-stage Perfection Emptiness Realm cultivators-one at ninth-rank and one at eighth-rank-while the others were mid to early-stage Perfection Emptiness Realm cultivators.

“You’ve got guts, killing so many from Frost Palace and still daring to stay in Azure Abyss City. Impressive!” the leading man said to Billy.

“State your name!” Billy responded.

“Frost Palace, vice master, Silas West!” the man replied.

“Your sect master didn’t come?” Billy asked calmly.

“You’re not worthy of our sect master’s personal attention!” Silas West glanced at Billy and continued. “Although I don’t know how you killed a second-rank Breaking Emptiness Realm cultivator, I advise you that in front of me, you have no chance of winning!”

“If you hand over the Nine Dragons Cauldron willingly, I might spare those around you.”

“Otherwise, I’ll send all of you to the nether world to apologize to our second young master!”

From his words, it was clear he didn’t know that Billy also had the Heavenly Xuan Array Compass.

“Purple Spirit, can you handle those two late-stage Perfection Emptiness Realm cultivators?” Billy suddenly asked.

“What did you say?” Silas West was slightly taken aback.

“No problem!” Purple Spirit’s voice echoed in Billy’s mind.

The next moment, she emerged from Billy’s body and quickly charged at the two late-stage Perfection Emptiness Realm cultivators.

“Hmm?!” The two’s pupils contracted slightly as they raised their hands to send a gust of wind towards Purple Spirit.

Both sides were pushed back several hundred meters. After one move, they seemed evenly matched.

“Not bad, let’s go again!” Purple Spirit shouted and charged again.

“If you want to die, then as you wish…” Meanwhile, Silas West looked at Billy and spoke.

Before he could finish his sentence, Billy flipped his wrist and sent a blade light towards him.

Since it was a fight to the death anyway, there was no need for more words.

Phantom Blade Technique!

“Overestimating yourself!” Silas West frowned and sent an imprint towards Billy’s blade light.

With a muffled sound, Billy was blasted a thousand meters away.

“Kill!” Silas West shouted and chased after Billy.

“Kill!” The other Frost Palace members shouted and charged at Harleen’s group.

“Hope your storage rings have something valuable!” Stout shouted as he led the charge.

Harleen and Casey’s group didn’t hesitate either; they each took their positions and followed suit. The highest cultivation among their opponents was a sixth-rank Perfection Emptiness Realm cultivator, which posed no threat to Harleen anymore. The others at mid to early-stage Perfection Emptiness Realm were also no match for Casey and Ivy’s group.

Shortly after the battle began, their opponents were already on the defensive.

Meanwhile, a loud noise came from not far away. The eighth-rank Perfection Emptiness Realm elder was blasted a thousand meters away and spat out a mouthful of blood mid-air. With Purple Spirit’s current strength, an eighth-rank Perfection Emptiness Realm cultivator was no longer her match. The elder lost his life mid-air.

“You deserve to die!” The ninth-rank Perfection Emptiness Realm elder shouted angrily and pressed his hand towards Purple Spirit. A spatial cage formed around her, with barriers made of condensed Chi power on all sides. The cage quickly shrank, threatening to slice Purple Spirit into pieces.

“If you want me dead, you’ll have to do better than that!” Purple Spirit’s voice rang out. The next moment, she transformed into a purple sword and flashed towards her opponent.

Unity of man and sword!
