Chapter 2066: A Remarkable Background
“You are an idiot!” The woman’s voice turned cold after her insult.
“I’m giving you a chance now. Leave all your storage rings as compensation, or you won’t be going anywhere today!”
“Miss, please understand, it was your mount that attacked us first, not the other way around…” Bob said, looking at her.
“Nonsense!” The woman interrupted him.
“If you had provoked my mount first, do you think you’d still be alive to talk to me?”
Bob’s mouth twitched slightly. “So, according to you, we should just stand still and let your mount attack us?”
“What do you have legs for? Don’t you know how to run?” the woman retorted.
“Enough, I don’t have time to waste with you. If you don’t want to leave your storage rings, you’ll bear the consequences!”
“Boss, should we just kill them? They’re annoying!” Stout asked Billy.
“Let’s go!” Billy said, leading the group towards Azure Abyss City.© NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
He had no interest in talking to such an arrogant woman.
“You dare run after injuring my mount? Do you think I’m easy to deal with?” The woman shouted angrily, raising her hand to strike at them.
“You’re really annoying!” Frostblade, who was at the back, replied as he sent out a blade of light.
Without looking back, he followed the group forward.
The next moment, a muffled sound was heard. The woman was sent flying three or four hundred meters away, spitting a mouthful of blood into the air.
“Rosemary, are you okay?” A man named Everett West shouted as he rushed to her side.
“Mr. West, she dared to hurt me. Kill her for me!” Rosemary Norton demanded with a vicious look after catching her breath.
“Rosemary, hold on!” Everett West said, looking at Billy and his group.
“We can’t take them on ourselves. I’ve already notified Elder Underwood. He’ll be here soon to help.”
“Good!” Rosemary Norton nodded vigorously. “I want them to know the consequences of offending me!”
While they were talking, Billy and his group had reached a spot about ten kilometers from Azure Abyss City.
From a distance, Azure Abyss City was neither too big nor too small, similar in size to Cloudhaven City.
“Boss, that woman is probably the daughter of some family or sect in Azure Abyss City,” Vermilion Bird said to Billy.
“They must have called for reinforcements. Should we settle this outside the city before going in?”
“People are already here!” Billy said calmly before Vermilion Bird could finish speaking.
They looked ahead and saw two elders leading a group of more than ten people flying towards them from the city.
“Boss, can you gauge the cultivation levels of those two old men?” Azure Dragon asked.
“Late-stage Perfection Emptiness Realm. One is seventh-rank, and the other is eighth-rank,” Billy replied.
With his current level of spiritual power, he could already sense the martial aura of mid to late-stage Perfection Emptiness Realm cultivators.
“Elder Underwood, stop them!” At the same time, they heard Everett West’s voice behind them.
He and Rosemary Norton quickly flew towards their group.
“Master Everett, what happened?” The eighth-rank Perfection Emptiness Realm elder asked Everett West.
“They injured Rosemary. Don’t let them escape!” Everett West responded.
“Miss, are you alright?” The seventh-rank Perfection Emptiness Realm elder asked Rosemary Norton.
“Elder Hayes, act quickly! They dared to hurt me; I want them to pay!” Rosemary Norton demanded.
“Miss, you and Mr. West rest for a while. I’ll handle this,” Elder Hayes said before turning to Billy and his group.
“You must be from a fourth-tier star domain. It doesn’t matter who you are; if you want to live, each of you must cripple one arm and hand over the person who injured Miss.”
“Otherwise, none of you will leave here alive!”
“Elder Hayes, for the men, cripple one arm and one leg. For the women, just cripple their cultivation,” Everett West added.
“Alright!” Elder Hayes nodded and looked at Billy’s group. “Did you hear that? Do it yourselves!”
“This is unbelievable!” Soul Chaser remarked. “Are all fifth-tier star domain people this stupid?”
“Do you have a death wish?” Elder Hayes frowned at Soul Chaser’s words.
“Ten breaths!” Billy glanced at everyone. “You have ten breaths to leave. If not, don’t bother leaving at all!”
“What did you say? Say it again?” Elder Hayes responded coldly.
He had already gauged their cultivation levels; the highest was only half-step Perfection Emptiness Realm. How dare they speak to him like this?
“Elder Hayes, stop wasting time and act!” Rosemary Norton shouted.
“Alright!” Elder Hayes lost his patience and waved his hand. “Cripple one arm and one leg for the men; cripple the cultivation for the women!”
He then charged towards Billy and his group.
The elder had barely covered a hundred meters when a blade of light flashed across him.
“…”
The elder looked down at the bloodline on his body but couldn’t utter a word before his body split in two and fell.
His face was filled with endless shock; he couldn’t comprehend how he had died!
“Hmm?!”
The people following him stopped abruptly, staring in shock at the elder’s two halves.
Even the eighth-rank Perfection Emptiness Realm elder was stunned for a moment, looking at Billy in disbelief.
A half-step Perfection Emptiness Realm cultivator had killed a seventh-rank Perfection Emptiness Realm elder with a single strike?!
He knew that if he went up against them, he would likely be killed with one strike as well.
“Elder Hayes!” Rosemary Norton shouted loudly.
“Everyone must cripple one arm if they want to live!” Billy said coldly to their group. “Otherwise, die!”
“My young friend, we were blind earlier; please forgive us!” The eighth-rank Perfection Emptiness Realm elder took a deep breath and looked at Billy.
“Mr. Everett and I are from Frost Palace. If you could show mercy, Frost Palace will remember this favor.”
“Oh! Quite a background!” Judge remarked upon hearing this.
Casey and the others raised their eyebrows slightly; they hadn’t expected to encounter people from Frost Palace so soon after arriving in the fifth-tier star domain!
“What do you think?” The elder continued to ask Billy.
He mentioned Frost Palace to intimidate them! After all, not many dared to disrespect Frost Palace in this star domain!
“I forgot to mention earlier; just crippling one arm isn’t enough for your Master Everett,” Billy replied.
“If he wants to live, he must cripple one arm and one leg!”
