Lord Came Back From The Battlefield

“Great!”

Billy began. A surge of powerful true energy flowed from his palm into Bartholomew’s body.

“Mmm…” After a moment, Bartholomew let out a muffled groan, with a hint of pain flashing across his brow. He felt an unstoppable force rampaging through his body and constantly attacking his meridians as if it wanted to burst out of him. Fortunately, this intense pain only lasted for about 15 minutes before gradually subsiding.

20 minutes later, Bartholomew spat out some blood.

“Mr Dawson, it’s done!”

Billy removed his hand from Bartholomew. And right after that, a strong aura emanated from Bartholomew’s body. He had clearly reached the level of a Novice Battle Master.

“Billy… not only did you heal my injuries but you also helped me break through to become a Battle Master!” Bartholomew was shocked beyond belief.

“Mr Dawson, weren’t you already at the peak of a warrior level before your injury? I just helped you raise two levels.” Billy smiled faintly.

If other martial artists heard this statement they would feel envious. Many a person had to spend several years or even more than ten years to break through just two levels. Moreover, Bartholomew had crossed over into another tier, becoming a Battle Master, which few martial artists could reach in their lifetime.

“Mr Dawson, you can come down and move around now.” Billy spoke up again.

“What? Does that mean I can stand on my own two feet?”

“Of course!”

Bartholomew took in a sharp breath, then bit his lip and tried to stand up.

“Thank you so much, Billy!” he exclaimed. As he spoke, he knelt down in front of Billy.

“Mr Dawson, it’s a small favor.” Billy said as he lifted Bartholomew up. “Besides, this only happened because of the Miles family.”

“That’s beside the point!” Bartholomew bowed deeply to Billy. “Thank you so much!”

“It’s my pleasure. And please keep my identity secret for now.”

“I see. Billy, was that Taoist Nine Needles?”

“You are indeed knowledgeable about many things, Mr Dawson.”

Bartholomew felt shocked. After calming down his excitement, he asked again, “So Billy, are you one of the Doorway of Secret Essences faction?”

“I did use the Nine Needles of Secret Essences just now. But I wouldn’t say I’m one of them. I have some connections to this faction. If there’s a chance next time, I’ll talk more with you in detail.”

“Alright.”

10 minutes later, they left the study and Billy resumed his disguise as before. The Dawson family was overjoyed when they saw Bartholomew’s condition and expressed their gratitude to Billy one by one. Then Billy and Casey bid farewell and left.

“Grandpa, who is he? He’s amazing! He cured your legs in such a short time! He must be a miracle doctor!” Laura exclaimed as she watched them leave.

“Bi-,” Bartholomew suddenly paused.

In his mind flashed several pieces of information about Billy’s identity. A man with abilities beyond a Battle General, proficient in Nine Needles of Secret Essences, having an unusual relationship with SHADOW and accompanied by another Battle General expert was none other than Billy Gardner, the king of the west and the head of SHADOW.

Bartholomew felt like he was struck by lightning as he thought of this, his whole body trembling with shock.

“I can’t believe it’s him!”

“What’s wrong, Grandpa? Who is he?”

“He is a peerless genius who even opponents admire.” Bartholomew murmured.

The next morning, Billy and Casey came to Harleen’s house again. Today they were going to accompany Harleen to Knight Group to discuss stocks and dividends.

“Daddy hug me! I want Daddy hug!” Just after greeting the family, Tasha ran over.

“Okay!” Billy bent down and picked up the little one. “Did Tasha have breakfast?”

“I did! Grandma made so many delicious things that I’m stuffed.” Tasha patted her stomach.

“Haha, let me see if your little belly is about to burst.” Billy joked.

“No way! That would be embarrassing!” Tasha spoke like a little adult.

Both Billy and Casey laughed out loud.

“Tasha, Mom and Dad are going out for a while. Will you stay home with Uncle Casey and Felicia?” After playing with Tasha for a while, Billy smiled and said.Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.

“Okay, but Mom and Dad, make sure you come back early!”

“Of course, we’ll be back as soon as we finish our errands.” Billy replied before turning to Harleen. “Harleen, shall we go?”

“Sure.”

“Harleen, have you discussed with your parents whether they want to continue holding the 20% stake in Knight Group or cash it out?” Billy asked as they got into the car.

“We’ve talked about it. We agree on cashing out. We don’t want any further involvement with Knight Group.” Harleen replied.

“I see.”

After about 40 minutes of driving, they arrived at the building of Knight Group and parked their car before heading towards the lobby.

“Hello Miss Knight, please wait a moment!”

As they walked towards the lift, an attendant intercepted them.

“What do you need me to report? Why do I need to register my visit?” Harleen frowned slightly knowing that this was likely Beatrice’s doing.

“I’m sorry, Miss Knight, but I received instructions that anyone who comes here for business needs to register first and make an appointment…” The attendant explained apologetically.

“Forget it! Don’t bother yourself.” Harleen interrupted her sharply before continuing towards the elevator bank with Billy by her side.

“Miss Knight…” the front desk called out quickly.

“Oh! Is my cousin showing off her power to the employees here?” a voice sounded.

Then, Beatrice walked over with the Guerrero family’s young master, looking very pleased with herself.
