Boom!


    A deafening roar reverberated, shattering the surroundings, sending shockwaves through the air that reduced trees to splinters and filled the area with flying debris. At the same time, the elderly man spewed blood into the air, his body tumbling like a kite with a severed string. He crashed more than a hundred meters away, creating arge pit upon impact. His bones shattered, and his meridians were severed.


    “You’re a War… War Emperor…” He managed to raise his head, whispering a few words before his head slumped, lifeless.


    “Why… Why did you want to assassinate Commander Gardner…” Not far away, Julia Doman sat on the ground, her face filled with boundless despair.


    Billy soon arrived by her side.


    “I’m sorry, I truly am sorry. I didn’t know that the sect intended to target you. But it had nothing to do with my father, I promise, please spare my father’s life, I’m willing to do anything for you…” Julia Doman, teary-eyed, knelt before Billy, her legs trembling.


    “It’s fine. Get up,” Billy said calmly before turning and walking towards the garden’s entrance.


    “Please… please spare my father. I’m begging you.” Julia Doman implored while bowing down deeply to Billy’s back and she followed Billy. She prayed fervently that her father had not been involved. If he was, no one would be able to save him.


    A minuteter, Billy arrived at the mansion’s courtyard. The battle had alsoe to an end here. With thebined efforts of Stout and Judge, all of the attackers were defeated. Among them were several martial practitioners at the Battle God stage. The square was littered with severed limbs and cries of agony.


    Injured all over, Nick Doman sat on the ground, nked by several equally wounded elders. The other guests who hade to the banquet had fled the estate ten minutes earlier, abandoning the premises.


    “Boss!”


    “Mr Gardner!” Judge’s group greeted Billy as they approached.


    Billy nodded slightly.


    Derek proceeded to exin what he had learned about the situation. After hearing Derek’s ount, Billy looked slightly surprised. After a pause, he asked, “Where’s Kenny Doman?”


    “Inside the vi!” Derek responded before looking at Donald. “Donald, go bring him out.”


    “Yes.” Donald nodded and headed towards the vi.


    Soon, Kenny Doman emerged, leaning on Donald’s arm for support.


    “Nick Doman, you’ve truly brought disaster upon yourself!” Seeing the scene in the square, Kenny Doman roared to the sky.


    His vitality assaulted by inner energy and poison, he vomited arge mouthful of dark red blood. Following this, he slumped to the ground, aging by decades in an instant.


    “Dad…” Julia Doman rushed into the square, calling out in sorrow as she ran to her father.


    “Tell us the whole story, and we’ll give you a proper burial!” Billy walked towards Nick Doman.


    “Haha, do you think you’ve won?” Nick sneered at Billy.


    “Even in this state, you’re still unrepentant?” Billy’s voice remained calm.


    “What do you think?” Nick’s eyes flickered, and he shouted towards the distance. “Why aren’t you moving? What are you waiting for?”


    His words barely had time tond before shadows emerged from beyond the estate’s walls. Over a hundred figuresnded heavily on the ground, each one lifeless. These were all foreign martial practitioners, many of them holding automatic rifles.


    “What!?” Seeing these neers, Nick Doman bellowed in shock, his face contorted in horror.


    “The Doman family, you really know how to choose your allies. Not only did you collude with the sect to assassinate a high-ranking official, but you’ve also conspired with foreign forces. This is enough to warrant the extermination of your entire n!” A male voice rang out from outside the estate.


    Before long, Casey Kimmons and Azure Dragon led a thousand members of the Army of Bloodshadow into the scene, walking in casually.


    “Commander!” Upon reaching Billy, the group dropped to one knee and shouted in unison.


    Billy waved his hand. He had suspected that this grand event held by the Doman family would likely have been with an ulterior motive. The recent incident involving the Leonard family could not have gone unnoticed by other ns in Enssea. They must have sensed the pressure and decided to eliminate Billy before he became too powerful. For this reason, Billy had not called upon SHADOW agents this time. Instead, he had contacted Casey, allowing him to gather a contingent of the Army of Bloodshadow to assist.


    “Yes, Commander!” The group stood up and expressed their gratitude.


    “Boss!” Casey and Azure Dragon approached Billy.


    Billy replied with a slight smile.


    “Boss, all these people are from the WestCloud Trading Company!” Casey gestured towards the foreign martial practitioners on the ground.


    “A while ago, when SHADOW was dealing with the bandits, they received advanced notice from the Doman family. They’ve been hiding in the outskirts of Enssea, waiting to coborate with the Doman family for this operation.” Azure Dragon exined.


    “WestCloud Trading Company. Good!” A glint of determination shed in Billy’s eyes. He then took out his phone and sent a message to White Tiger, who was thousands of miles away.


    “Find out Zephyria’s influence in ce of Darkness and eliminate them!”


    After putting his phone away, Billy turned his gaze back to Nick Doman and asked, “Now, can you exin?”


    Nick Doman exhaled heavily wearing an expression of a fallen despot, his entire body slumping.


    “It’s a matter of winner and loser. There’s nothing more to say. If you want to kill or dismember me, go ahead. I’m ready.” He sneered.Original content from N?velDrama.Org.


    “As you wish!” Billy responded in a deep voice. He took the Bloodshadow Battle de from Casey’s hand. With a swift wrist movement, a cold gleam shed across Nick Doman’s neck.


    The next moment, the head soared into the sky, blood spurting like a pir.


    In truth, Billy didn’t even need to ask. It was clear that this incident today was the result of collusion between several ns in the capital and the Doman family, orchestrated to make the sect intervene. In the recent past, the Leonard n had been annihted, which undoubtedly put pressure on the other ns. So, they sought to eliminate Billy swiftly by any means necessary.


    For Billy, it was just a matter of time before he dealt with those ns. Therefore, whether Nick Doman spoke or not was inconsequential. From a broader perspective, even if Nick Doman were willing to talk, at most, he could only admit to the involvement of a few individuals. It wouldn’t hold any significant meaning. Those ns could easily im that these actions were carried out by these individuals alone and had nothing to do with the entire n. They could then hand over the individuals to resolve the matter peacefully.


    At this moment, Julia Doman stood up and knelt before Billy once again, her voice choked with tears.


    “Commander Gardner, I understand that the Doman family hasmitted an unforgivable crime, deserving of annihtion. But… all of this was orchestrated by my second uncle and the sect…”


    “My father was never involved in any of this. I beg you spare my father… spare the innocent members of the Doman family. I… I’m willing to trade my lowly life for theirs. Please, Commander Gardner, grant them mercy…” After saying this, she removed a hairpin from her hair and without hesitation, drove it into her own heart.


    “Julia, no! Don’t!” Kenny Doman screamed out in pain.
