Chapter 2049: The Fall of the Osborn Family
“You’re not from Great Green City, are you?” Gloria Russo continued.
“Recently, Great Green City has been in turmoil. The City Lord’s Mansion is deserted, and various factions are vying to take control.”
“The Osborn family has made the most significant moves, having already subdued several sects.”
“We, the Russo family, are the second-largest family in Great Green City. They want us to submit, but we refuse, so they…”
“Aren’t the Sword Sect people managing the City Lord’s Mansion? Why aren’t they intervening?” Harleen asked.
“Great Green City is too large, with many families and sects. The Sword Sect doesn’t have enough people to manage everything,” Gloria Russo replied.
“Everyone, you should leave Great Green City quickly before it’s too late.”
“Thanks for the warning, but we’ll be fine!” Harleen responded. “Where is the City Lord’s Mansion located?”
“You want to go to the City Lord’s Mansion?” Gloria Russo was slightly surprised. “Are you from the Blade and Sword Sect?”
Hearing Harleen’s words and recalling that Casey wielded a blade, she made this guess.
“Yes,” Harleen nodded.
“I see,” Gloria Russo replied, feeling less worried knowing they were from the Blade and Sword Sect.
After a brief pause, she continued, “The City Lord’s Mansion is a bit far from here. I’ll take you there.”
“Thank you,” Harleen nodded again.
“You’re welcome,” Gloria Russo said, leading them through the air.
About fifteen minutes later, they landed at the entrance of the City Lord’s Mansion.
“This is the City Lord’s Mansion…” Gloria Russo said, looking at everyone.
“How dare you kill my son! All of you must die today!” A furious male voice suddenly rang out.
Everyone turned to see a group approaching through the air, led by Jeb Osborn, head of the Osborn family in Great Green City.
Since most of the Osborn family’s top fighters had perished in Bladesong City, only an elderly man at the eighth-rank Entering Emptiness Realm accompanied him.
“Everyone, quickly go into the City Lord’s Mansion and get help. Jeb Osborn is at the second-rank Perfection Emptiness Realm; you can’t defeat him…” Gloria Russo’s face changed dramatically.
She had already assessed Billy and his group’s cultivation levels; the highest was only at the fifth-rank Entering Emptiness Realm, no match for a Perfection Emptiness Realm opponent.
“And you!” As she spoke, Jeb Osborn and his group closed in to within three or four hundred meters. He looked at Gloria Russo and said coldly.
“Since your Russo family doesn’t know its place, I’ll make sure you disappear from Great Green City after today!”
“Who dares cause trouble here!” At that moment, four or five figures flew out from the City Lord’s Mansion and walked toward the gate.
“Mr. Billy?!”
Seeing Billy, they were stunned, clearly not expecting to find him here.
Hearing this, both Gloria Russo and Jeb Osborn looked at Billy in surprise.
“Is Jimmy not here?” Billy asked the five Sword Sect members, nodding slightly.
“Elder Jimmy went to Yheng Institute and is not currently at the City Lord’s Mansion,” one of them replied respectfully.
“So you’re Billy!” Jeb Osborn snarled at Billy.
“You killed my Alani and now my Colt. I’ll tear you to pieces!”
As he spoke, a terrifying aura erupted from him, capable of destroying everything in its path. He formed a massive axe-shaped weapon with his hands and slashed toward Billy and his group, tearing through the void.
“Mr. Billy, watch out!” Gloria Russo exclaimed.
The Sword Sect members remained calm; they had seen Billy’s strength before. A second-rank Perfection Emptiness Realm opponent was no threat to him.
Billy flipped his wrist, drawing his blade and unleashing a Heavenly Fury Slash.
A loud explosion echoed through the void as the axe-shaped weapon disintegrated instantly. The blade light continued its unstoppable path, slicing through Jeb Osborn.
In an instant, the oppressive aura vanished, and peace returned to the void.
“How… how is this possible…” Jeb Osborn looked at his wound in disbelief before his body split in two and fell from the sky, his face filled with horror.
Gasps filled the air as Gloria Russo and some onlookers were momentarily petrified.
A second-rank Perfection Emptiness Realm expert had been effortlessly cut in half by someone at the fifth-rank Entering Emptiness Realm. It was unbelievable!
Gloria Russo’s expression was particularly striking; she looked utterly shocked as if witnessing something impossible.
Though she had heard of Billy’s name and knew he was powerful, she hadn’t expected him to be this formidable!
It was terrifying!
“Master!” The remaining Osborn family members cried out in anguish.
Without hesitation, they fled in all directions.
Several blade lights flashed in the air. The fleeing Entering Emptiness Realm members of the Osborn family fell one after another within a few hundred meters, leaving no survivors.
Billy spared those at the Heaven Dao Realm, letting them go.
“Thank you, Mr. Billy!” Gloria Russo took a deep breath and bowed to Billy.
“It was nothing,” Billy replied after storing his blade in his storage ring.
After a moment of thought, he asked, “What is the highest cultivation level in the Russo family?”This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
“My grandfather is at half-step into second-rank Perfection Emptiness Realm,” Gloria Russo replied after a brief pause.
“Not bad,” Billy nodded slightly. “Besides the Osborn family and your Russo family, are there any other factions in Great Green City with Perfection Emptiness Realm experts?”
“I’m not entirely sure, but the Array Alliance and Heaven Cloud Sect definitely have Perfection Emptiness Realm experts,” Gloria Russo replied.
“Heaven Cloud Sect?” Billy paused for a moment.
“Yes,” Gloria Russo nodded. “Heaven Cloud Sect is the largest sect in Great Green City. Their Sect Master should be at least first-rank Perfection Emptiness Realm.”
“Go back and ask your family if they’re interested in subduing other families and sects in Great Green City,” Billy continued. “Don’t worry about the Array Alliance for now.”
“Huh?” Gloria Russo was puzzled. “Mr. Billy means?”
“Great Green City can’t remain chaotic any longer,” Billy said. “If your Russo family has the capability and interest, I can give you a chance.”
“Thank you, Mr. Billy!” Gloria Russo’s eyes lit up as she understood Billy’s meaning.
“Hurry up,” Billy waved his hand. “If you encounter any tough opponents, come to the City Lord’s Mansion for help.”
“I’ll discuss it with my grandfather immediately!” Gloria Russo responded and flew away.
“Opal, take Amber and Casey to patrol the city. If you find anyone taking advantage of the chaos, eliminate them!” Billy instructed Opal and others.
“We must restore order to this city by today!”
“Understood!” Opal and Amber responded before flying off.
