Chapter 1928: The Battle Resumes
“Such a young age, yet your mind is as cunning as a demon. We underestimated you!” An elder’s voice echoed back.
As the words fell, seven or eight figures appeared within everyone’s sight.
The leader had a head full of silver hair, dressed in a gray robe, with no trace of aura around him.
The group behind him, without exception, were all at the Mid Stage of Heaven Dao Realm, with the strongest among them being at the sixth-rank Heaven Dao Realm.
Seeing this group, David Roth’s expression grew even more grim.
Although he was at the seventh-rank Heaven Dao Realm, he knew very well that facing the powerhouses of the Sacred Hall Sect and Mysterious Hall Sect, he had no advantage whatsoever!
“It’s been a long time, both of you!” The silver-haired elder named Aiden Rees looked at the two elders from the Sacred Hall Sect and spoke calmly.
“Aiden, I didn’t expect Mysterious Hall Sect to send you!” The plump elder named Benjamin Reid responded, a hint of seriousness flashing in his eyes.
As the two most powerful sects in this star domain, Sacred Hall Sect and Mysterious Hall Sect were familiar with most of each other’s core members, even if not completely.
Aiden Rees, Lord Aiden of Mysterious Hall Sect, was at least among the top ten in terms of skill within the Mysterious Hall Sect!
“I didn’t expect Sacred Hall Sect to send both of you brothers together either!” Aiden Rees responded lightly. “It seems Sacred Hall Sect is determined to get the City of the Dead map this time!”
“Isn’t it the same for Mysterious Hall Sect?” The other elder named Wright replied.
“Haha, indeed!” Aiden Rees chuckled. After speaking, he turned to Billy.
“Mr. Billy, our Young Lady admires your character and wishes to befriend you. She specifically sent me to invite you to visit Mysterious Hall Sect!”
“Young Lady?” Billy was slightly stunned.
“Our Young Lady met Mr. Billy not long ago!” Aiden Rees smiled.
“So it was her?” Billy realized, recalling the image of the woman in plain clothes he had met some time ago.
He hadn’t expected that woman to be the Young Lady of Mysterious Hall Sect.
It seemed that when they met earlier, she had likely concealed her true cultivation level; otherwise, as the Young Lady of Mysterious Hall Sect, she couldn’t possibly have such limited strength.
“What does Mr. Billy think?” Aiden Rees continued to smile.
“Making friends is certainly no problem; I love making friends!” Billy said while pointing at David Roth and the people from Sacred Hall Sect. “However, they might not let me leave so easily.”
“As long as Mr. Billy agrees to visit Mysterious Hall Sect with me, I’ll handle everything else!” Aiden Rees responded.
“Aiden Rees, you speak so boldly!” Benjamin Reid said coldly. “Though your strength is commendable, do you think you can take someone away from us?”
“Why don’t we give it a try?” Aiden Rees looked at them calmly.
“As you wish!” Wright replied and then looked at David Roth. “Emperor Roth, shall we join forces? Once we get the City of the Dead map, we’ll enter together!”
“Alright!” David Roth’s eyes narrowed slightly.
He knew well that against either Sacred Hall Sect or Mysterious Hall Sect alone, he had no chance of winning! Only by allying with one side could he have a chance!
As for Wright’s promise to enter the City of the Dead together later, he didn’t believe it for a second!
But for now, he had no better choice and had to deal with one side first!
“Emperor Roth, are you sure you want to oppose our Mysterious Hall Sect?” Aiden Rees looked at David Roth calmly.
“I need the City of the Dead map!” David Roth replied indifferently.NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
“Very well!” Aiden Rees’s eyes narrowed slightly. “Your Domain Lord’s Mansion needs a new master!”
“Let’s see if you have the strength for that!” David Roth responded again.
“Then let’s begin!” Aiden Rees wasted no more words.
As his words fell, everyone’s aura erupted simultaneously, making the entire void feel like it was instantly vacuumed, suffocating everyone.
“You two keep an eye on him!” David Roth pointed towards Billy and turned to two soldiers beside him.
“Understood!” The two nodded.
“Aiden Rees, let’s find another place!” Wright then looked at Aiden Rees and spoke solemnly.
“Alright!” Aiden Rees replied and then looked at Billy. “Mr. Billy, if you can’t win, just hold them off!”
“Got it!” Billy replied.
Subsequently, Aiden Rees and Wright along with David Roth flew into the air at high speed, disappearing several kilometers away in just a few blinks of an eye.
“Kill!” At the same time, the remaining members of Sacred Hall Sect and David Roth’s two soldiers charged towards the people from Mysterious Hall Sect.
“Courting death!” The people from Mysterious Hall Sect showed no intention of retreating and raised their hands to meet the attack.
The void was immediately filled with deafening explosions, shaking several times and revealing pitch-black cracks that were terrifying to behold.
“You’d better hand over the City of the Dead map willingly!” David Roth’s two soldiers looked at Billy and spoke.
Billy didn’t respond but slashed out with his blade directly.
“Overestimating yourself!” The taller soldier snorted coldly and raised his hand to dissolve Billy’s blade attack with a wave of energy.
“You don’t know what’s good for you!” The shorter soldier spoke as he charged towards Billy.
Both were at third-rank Heaven Dao Realm, making it clear that Billy couldn’t fight them head-on in his current state.
Although he had recovered about sixty to seventy percent of his strength after a brief rest earlier, it was still difficult to contend with both of them.
“If you want the map, let’s see if you have what it takes!” Billy said while dodging their attacks.
“Let’s see how long you can keep up that tough talk!” The taller soldier said again before raising his hand to create a barrier about a kilometer in diameter that enveloped all three of them.
Immediately afterward, both soldiers attacked simultaneously again, sending out violent waves of energy that made the pressure inside the barrier reach its peak.
Billy’s eyes narrowed slightly but still didn’t engage them head-on.
However, due to the barrier’s presence, his movement range was limited. Even though he dodged their direct attacks, he was still thrown by the shockwaves and slammed into the barrier’s edge, feeling dizzy and disoriented.
The two soldiers showed no intention of stopping and charged towards Billy again one after another.
“Time to send you off!” This time, Billy didn’t dodge anymore.
A kylin blade drew out an incredibly sharp curved blade aura towards the shorter soldier charging in front.
Heavenly Fury Slash!
“Arrogant…” The shorter soldier didn’t take Billy seriously at all.
However, before he could finish his sentence, the blade light pierced through him. His aura instantly deflated as he looked down at the bloodline on his body. Without saying another word, his body split in half and fell down.
At the same time, an imprint from the taller soldier struck Billy without any resistance.
Billy spat out a mouthful of blood and was thrown back again, crashing into the barrier which shook violently.
Fortunately, his resilience was extraordinary; he only suffered minor injuries.
“Give me your life!” The taller soldier roared in fury upon seeing his companion’s fate.
